why not?
N4 has no OTG support
"no" is right, unfortunately the N4 does NOT have OTG support... this is hardware based not software, so I doubt it will ever be able to do it...

Yeah, the OTG is extremely unfortunate. The 8gb is a huge slap in a face, with only ~300mb wiggle room

correct me if i wrong, the device dosent have otg support because the usb port cant produce enough voltage to turn on external devices. this external sd card reader is also a external battery so it has the voltage to turn itself on soshouldnt it work?

I would recommend changing the youtube embed to a normal size. I did not even notice the links at the bottom, plus it was too wide for my browser window. If someone wants to watch it fullscreen they can do it themselves.

That's better. I'll just have to get a bigger monitor then

Nice job, sonic74!
I ordered the OTG cables that you linked. (You should get commission). Which USB to VGA adapter did you use? -- Also, going to hunt down a USB to Ethernet adapter to play with and try.
Cheers,

I saw in the hardware list, you have a "USB Dual Power Cable" listed as one of the items. Does that go between the powered USB hub and the USB OTG cable?

It's a Lenovo 45K5296.
It's DisplayLink DL-195 based and so can do 2048x1536 over DVI. If you don't need that high a resolution, there are cheaper options. Or small USB monitors.
Yeah I'm confused on the "USB Dual Power Cable" and what exactly that is also. If you can a rough step by step on how you got it working could go along way as well.
I actually posted on reddit asking if I could link your post here.. must've missed it the first time quickly scanning. Congrats on figuring this out by the way.

hi,
do you expect this to work for other phones as well?? like the motorola milestone once we can modify the kernel? Or is it very specific to the nexus one hardware?

Yes, the Droid/Milestone is TI OMAP based. The first linux OTG/host support came from TI for this SoC. It is even in the mainline tree I think.

Ah. Nice! Thanks for the clarification!
I was thinking of picking up a cheap StarTech USB2VGA off eBay for $30 USD. Since it works in an NSLU2, I'm assuming it should work too on the N1.
BTW- I have that exact same ASUS WL-500G Premium... It's a blast to hack!
Thanks again!
Cheers,
Kermee
Sonic74, you've used a self-powered USB Hub. Is it possible to use less-intensive devices like USB Keyboard and Mouse without requiring it to be powered? Or is it a must to even work?
It's also a little confusing the binaries you've put up on your site atmo, since I presume some relate only to running X11 (ConnectBot etc) and others are for simpler things such as the keyboards? Can you make it clearer on the distinction of what's required to do what? Huge thanks.
Lastly, thanks for opening the world's eyes to the amazing possibilities with Android. The dawning that these are more than just phones, they are mobile computer devices that can be converted into gaming consoles or presentation devices or printers or scanners etc. is pretty epic
Interesting...now only if there was an Android driver for my USB FM radio I could get FM on my N1!

Its considerably smaller than I thought it would be. A bit heavier as well.

so far so good. No flash sucks but u know this.
Will have to go home to test mini USB charge/connect.

Why can't you download the .doc file? Have you installed Astro File Manager and enabled browser downloads in the settings?
+1 but i purchased this morning from vzw and it has been sitting in my car all day.
from the few minutes i played with it at the store and in the car, i like it even more than i originally did.
it was also smaller than i was expecting which is a bonus.
Yes.
Called Verizon and got them to waive my activation fee, too.
I wish the screen itself had more contrast/brightness overall (I have Auto off and brightness on full, and its still only so-so).

Got mine this morning, copied over an mp4 movie and it plays very well. Don't like the default book reader because I don't know if its possible or not but I couldn't open my own epub files from it which would have been great because the app itself is actually nice. I'm still at work so I couldn't play with it as much as I would have liked to and the time I did have to spend on it I started installing some of my favorite apps (all free) like task manager, androzip, pandora, sketchbook...battery life has been great so far but again no real tests yet. I will def play with it more once I get home tonight and let everyone know if there are any issues. Sorry, forgot to mention how annoying the power button is as well as the extra charger that I have to carry around now.

I think you can just replace CM7 kernel with my CM7 kernel release. According to one of the people who tested it, it worked fine for him. I'm not sure though since I'm not inclined to use it. I'm one of the few people who like the carousel.

wait the new cm7 kernel release
A bit of bad news. I tried enabling the OHCI and EHCI options but couldn't get it to work or rather, whenever I enabled them, the display won't start. All it displays is a blank screen. There's even no backlight turned on. I'll have to investigate this later.
On the bright side though, mass storage is enabled now. Have no way to test this though so I'll just get it out there later.
Hey, any new updates on this?
Anything I could do to help?
KF community would win a lot with OTG working.
I had a crazy idea that would depend on this. I have a spare webcam from my HP DV2880 and as it's pretty small, and usb, with otg working, I think that would be possible to try to make it work as the camera device. It probably draws very little power and with proper modules could work.
I'm willing to spend some time to try as soon as otg is ready!

I'll take a crack on it this weekend. I've been too tired to solder the needed USB cable after work.
O man....the kindle fire just gets better and better!
This would be beyond amazing for me, as the space on this device is such a limiting factor. Allow me to connect my USB drives and I'll be more than happy!
Dslrs
I would be especially interested in getting DSLR Controller to work on the kindle. Would look really great on top of a video rig!
If USB host mode gets enabled, would it be possible to use a Bluetooth dongle with KF or would it require additional development?
Is there anyway to hook up the nexus 7 to an external monitor. (DVI, HDMI, VGA)
is there a piece of hardware that I could buy if not? (To make it work with the previously mentioned connections)
Thanks for your Time

I'm sorry but there isn't any way to use our n7 on tv/monitor through cable.
If you want you had to use dlna (and install a app on your n7) !

Press thanks if I helped ~ Nexus7/ParanoidAndroid/FrancoKernel
Honestly I was hoping to do more than just stream, I'd like to be able to (Somehow) hook it up to a monitor, get a bt keyboard and mouse attached and use it as a computer.
(I truthfully doubt dlna can do that, but if it can i'll buy an adaptor for my monitor, and we'll be in business)
So, you want some kind of mirroring?
Sorry but this is impossible for the n7!
Yes. That is What I would like.
Is there any external buyable hardware that can make this possible?
