Possible?
With a mini USB B male to USB A female adapter would the 8125 be able to use usb drives you plug into it?
look up "WM5torage"
I reworded the post
i dont think it will work as wizard does not have usb host support
could it be made to work? that would be awesome
I'm interested in the Motorola P790 portable charger (unless you know of a better one) but it needs a mini usb connector to work.
Is the connector on the XV-6800 a mini usb?
Thanks!

Does *any* Micro USB cable work with the Nexus One?
Like this one:
http://www.amazon.com/BlackBerry-Cable-Micro-1-0m-Black/dp/B001QATRCA/
The G1 USB cable I currently use was the same price as the above, but it was actually branded as a "G1" cable.
Anyone know for sure?
yes, any micro USB cable. Heres a breakdown:
If your phone has an extUSB port, any extUSB cable or miniUSB cable will work.
If your phone has a miniUSB port, any miniUSB cable will work, extUSB would work but it cannot physically fit into a miniUSB port.
If your phone has a microUSB port, any microUSB cable will work, but no miniUSB or extUSB will work.
extUSB is HTC's semi-proprietary USB port which is simply miniUSB with an audio connector and unique socket shape.
All USB ports and cables of the same form factor have the same pinout.
MicroUSB has replaced MiniUSB and all new released portable devices will have microUSB most likely.
Xperia X10 miniPro connections?
Hi Folks - This is my first post and still getting used to how this board works, so please be patient with me!
I've got a similar problem regarding miniUSB leads... I've recently bought a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 miniPro... It charges via the USB port but the connector is not standard!
I'm wondering if anyone knows the pin-out of the socket and also where leads with such a connector can be purchased online?
Thanks for any help!

And you thought asking Nexus One owners would be a good idea?
Try a Sony section, someone there is bound to know.
All microusb cables are not the same I found this out recently.
I bought a microusb "blackberry" that fit into my nexus one no problem but when I tried to use it to transfer files; windows would act like it didn't know what device it was.
Now i'm currently using a kodak microusb that will allow windows to know its the nexus one and I can I mount my phone but everything is copy write protected.
So when I get home I have to go back to my old beat up cord that wont stay in my phone until I find a suitable replacement that will let me mount and access the files.
I bought some blackberry microusb cables on Amazon for a penny back in March (yes, 1 penny each!). They work perfectly for everything. I guess somehow wondercoolguy managed to find cables that were even cheaper then mine

This BB wire fits the nexus like a glove but hates transferring information. Yes I got my wire for 1.00 from a mertine if I remember correctly....I hate that place
Afaik any micro usb cable will work. Micro usb is the new standard.
I haven't seen any charging-only cables but that is a possibility.

I have been using micro-usb cable for my external disk, Nexus/GalaxyS and my previously own Nokia N97. No problem for charging, transfer files or tethering. I even use old N97 charger (micro-usb connection) on Nexus One before. None of these had any problem.
Micro-USB is a standard connection, there shouldn't be a problem. If there is, it could be due to the system mainboard or mainboard's USB port itself. Try not to connect too many devices through a USB-hub that link up from a USB port of the system. If you really need connect it via a USB-hub, get those hub has a dedicated power adapter.
Just buy any cheap cable, it will work. I also bought two official HTC chargers for my phone as well as some random USB to microUSB cables. All work fine, just as do the cables from my Nokia phones, cameras and cables I found under my girlfriend's bed lol

I dont know if anything I said was taken to heart please disregard it because I found out that my work disabled the flash drives to read only. It's not the cables fault all my cables work at home sorry
This is a Male Micro-USB to Female USB 2.0 adapter

I want to exceed the 4GB file size limit and would like to not have a wire dangling off my Nexus 7 or Nexus 10 while I watch a movie.
It doesn't state that its USB OTG, but a review said it worked on his Motorola Xoom.
Please let me know what you guys think
it does look like the same as a USB OTG cable, only a direct adapter.
Take a gamble... it's cheap enough...
What is the worst that could happen other than it not working?

The advantage of "a bit of wire" is that you only have a micro USB plug and wire hanging off the USB socket as opposed to a rigid USB micro + USB F + USB M hanging off the USB socket. Which configuration puts less strain on the USB socket if it's knocked, twisted etc.?
Hello,
I'm thinking on buying an SSD or mSATA SSD to use as adoptive storage, putting it inside my SATV 16GB and somehow pass an USB cable from the inside to the outside to connect it through USB, this way the SSD would stay inside the SATV and I don't have to worry about carrying it around.
Anyone have any ideas on how to pass the USB cable from the inside to the outside of the Shield without drilling any holes in the chassis? The idea would be to site the SSD on the place the PRO have the HDD and connect it through USB.
Did someone attempt this? Smile
Thanks!
You could do that, but I think the only viable solution would be to strip down the connecting usb cable, and solder wire directly in the usb plugs on the SATV.
You could probably do it from the inside. You can finde some teardown pictures of the SATV here:

I don't know the points to solder the cable and I'm afraid I can damage the port.
