Touch HD2 - about microUSB and digital compass

Is reading on the HTC homepage about HD2 specs.
I need one and was wondering about two things.
Does anyone know if standard microUSB means we can connect micro usb
stuff to the phone if we only have the right drivers?
I can think of two accessoars id would like to connect-
-USB handsfree from touch PRO
-some kind of TV out-cable
And there is one question about the digital compass.
will it be like the one that is on the marked now, were you dont have to
have GPS connected?
ps. when will HD get an own section on XDA? after all it is official and all now, and would be better to know were to post this kind of questions. ds.

Straight up, before we even start talking about drivers, there's no way you would be able to phsically connect accessories from the Touch Pro to the HD2 as the Touch Pro is miniUSB and the HD2 microUSB.

Er, I don't quite understand. What do you mean 'like the one that is on the marked now'?
But I can tell you this, a digital compass has nothing at all to do with GPS. The two are completely different.

Just didnt want to say:
Like the one in iPhone 3Gs, but you got my point anyway so thanks for the answer!

We have a magnet on TouchHD, why not a compass?
Hi,
Hats off to all the senior friends who are making lives easy for so many of us
I have a very simple question. The stylus which the company gives with the Touch HD is a magnet. Why can't we have a digital compass using it?
Hope it makes sense

Video Out problem

Is the Video Out different from the FUZE (touch Pro)?
I have the original cable (video out) for the Fuze (Touch Pro), my previous fone. Now I have had the Tilt 2 (touch pro 2) for the past 6 months or so and the cable didnt worked. I though I had a fone issue, but I recently got another (tilt 2) touch pro 2 and still TV out wont work...
My gf still has a fuze and the cable works perfectly on it. could both fones need different cables? I've tried NUETV out and no fix there..any other sugestions besides need to buy new cables?

Are you running the stock ROM? Because I believe you have to use a registry fix... but in my opinion I would just flash a custom ROM if you haven't already! They usually solve all the BS issues the carriers dont want to!

Agreed. I have the Fuze video out cable as well and used it to connect my Fuze to the in-dash monitor in my car. Once I got the Touch Pro2 I also had a problem with video out but after flashing a custom ROM to it the problem seemed to vanish.

i never use stock roms. im using the latest nrg cookie dinik glass version. have tried other roms, and even reverted to stock but no luck. what kind of registry did you guys changed? or where can we find the fix.thanks

Try changing:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\TVOutSetting]
"HiddenConnectSel"=dword:00000001 to 0. This will prompt you to choose which TV format to use.
Also try playing around with the following entry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\TVOutPopUp]
"TVMode"=dword:00000004
Best of luck
Dan

changed those settings... still no luck.... grrr
can anyone else confirm that their tv out works, and if your cable was bought originally for the tilt 2 or the fuze? thanks

Canon EOS remote shutter application

Hello , I have recently upgraded my phone to HTC One X but wish to use my HD2 for use of my camera as a remote shutter / remote focus app.
I notice various people have made free / paid for apps to do this on android providing you have host mode
I have installed various additions of ICS onto the device but cant seem to get the camera to be detected (i understand i have to power the usb cable as the hd2 doesnt output power), i can get the free shutter release app to work on my touchpad but do not wish to pay for the full app until i can get it to work on my hd2 (which i will just keep in my camera bag) , does anyone know of any rom that does have host mode working, or has anyone used any apps that do what im looking for on the HD2
assuming its not possible , does anyone know of a cheap small android device that would support it?

Set everything up, try the pro version, and then if it doesn't work then get a refund?

Well i cant seem to get the shutter release to work and the description says to test if it will work use that first (which it doesnt) so im wondering if anyone has got host mode working / camera linkup working and what rom was used etc.

Try different ROM/kernal.

Do you haven any suggestions which one may work (i have tried various ones with no success)

Look for the thread on development of USB Host mode in the NAND Development section. Normal, daily use kernels do not support USB Host...

[Q] Help! Why TN7 can not connect to DualShock3 via bluetooth？

Hi there! I bought a Tegra Note7 which is equipped with Tegra4 Chipsets.Now I want to play games with DualShock3 via SIXAXIS CONTROLLER. The thing is that the app worked very well on my Moto Droid Bionic,but it did not work on my Tegra Note7. When I clicked "start" with every necessary steps done and the screen displayed address of bluetooth and listening for controllers,the "bluetooth" icon did not appear on the top status bar. So the DS3 controller was continuous flashing its 4 red lights,then no other things took place.
I have restored original android 4.3 rom,no changes. Could*you*please*tell me how to work it out? Thank you!

Before I rooted tablet I was able to plug ps3 controller in and was able to map buttons m8 I also used sixaxis enabler and everything fine until rooted then lost all ps3 controller mappings there's very little info on this subject I asked before ,something to do with Bluetooth drivers !

There's really nothing to figure out. The bluetooth stack on the stock ROM just doesn't work with PS3 controllers. Until someone can make a custom ROM with some sort of changes to bluetooth (or until Nvidia releases a ROM with decent bluetooth support), it's just not going to work, and there's nothing we can do to change that.

Thank you for your definite answer! Anyway I now understand what is going on with Tegra Note7, and I have substituted DS3 for wamo pro2 .I hope it can function on my device via bluetooth.

The 4.4 Update is supposed to address controller usage.

Yeah,wamoPro can work on TN7 via BT now.But there is a pity for Sixaxis controller still not functioning in TN7.

I've had some success using the USB/BT Joystick Center app with an otg cable and a Bluetooth dongle.

I can't get it to work as consistently on my tablet as Better DS3 works on my PC though.

Any Idea if this is actually possible? sitting with a rooted TN7 which I spent a while figuring out how to root (not particularly learned in android atm) and pretty pissed off that my dreams of having a nice practical ghetto shield without cables have been crushed.

It's technically possible, but there has been almost no developer interest in this device. There are no custom ROMs available, and there's only one alternative kernel available, though I never did try a Sixaxis with that kernel... I do know that it broke support for my Moga, so that's not exactly promising. I'll have to give the Sixaxis a try here in a bit.

Assuming you mean shaky156 kernel I can confirm that it doesn't help the bluetooth issue

Just tried the latest version of Sixaxis with the latest OTA. And it seems to finally work on the built in blutooth stack without a usb dongle!

Android Auto running LOS14.1

Anyone able to used Android Auto running the latest version of LOS? First time using it so I'm not sure what to quite expect, but I think it would something more than nothing!

I've used it a lot on my Note 7. It works great. I ran it once in the Axon 7 and it worked just fine.

Rooted at all?

Damn, must be the cable. I tried using a few that I know transfer data and the one that it came with, any special cable you using?

Were you able to get this to work ? By your last post I realize you meant Android Auto on a car head unit and not the Android Auto app lol.

Lol yeah I did. I found that MTP kept changing over to USB charging. Switching it back to MTP fixed it
