SM-T230 USB FTDI Single Port Driver & CH43x - Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
I need ftdio_sio.ko and ch431 kernel modules in order to communicate with my own board. I downloaded `3.10` kernel from opensource.samsung.com, also tried to make it a .tar file with zImage inside it. Then, I tried to flash with Odin, but always `FAIL`. Any advice from you is appreciated.
Thanks.

[Q] USB Audio on ubuntu?

Has anyone manage to install an usb audio board or usb headphones to ubuntu on hd2? Is it possible? I'm trying to update alsa drivers but haven't managed to solve this problem.
Is there a known way?
Yes, worked fine with new kernel update and modules. It detected as soon as i inserted the sound card even through usb hub.
However audio does not work for phone calls still. Exploring out still...
can you please direct me on where or how these updates could be make. Even external audio would be ok.
I've tried downloading any update i could get, but don't know how to enable sound as my external usb audio adapters are not yet recognised.
Yes... external audio is fine. I tried with a Microsoft USB Headphones and also with cheap usb sound card both are working fine...
Search with the string zImage-htcleo-usbhost-latest and download both zImage-htcleo-usbhost-latest and modules-htcleo-usbhost-latest.tgz
Search [Discussion]Linux and Android on the HD2 and you will get information about updating the kernel.
Cheers!
hello, i did by the following guide
Installing the latest Linux kernel image (zImage)
1) Download the latest Linux kernel image (right click, save file as)
1a)for Google Android
1b) for classical GNU/Linux based distros (Ubuntu, openemebdded, meego, maemo etc)
Be aware these build links are dynamic and will be updated once the Linux kernel source code is updated. See here for static links
2) Rename the file to zImage
3) Overwrite your old zImage file with the newly obtained zImage file
Installing the matching Linux kernel modules (.ko files)
1) Download the latest Linux kernel modules to match your kernel image
1a) for classical GNU/Linux based distros (Ubuntu...)
1b) for Google Android
2) Install the modules...
2a) in GNU/Linux
As root run
cd /
tar xvf /path/to/modules-htcleo-usbhost-latest.tgz
downloaded both zImage-htcleo-usbhost-latestt and modules-htcleo-usbhost-latest.tgz then renamed first one like the older one in the linux folder, then use the tar command in root console to copy files from the archive to /lib folder (or wherever they were put). After a restart i get some fatal errors during text load up of linux, something involving mod probe complaining about not finding something in /lib folder, modules.dep if i remember, then at GUI load i get another error "cannot update ICEautorithy file. When i click ok, i get the desktop loaded but still no sound plus now, no wifi or some other drivers.
I guess i did it wrong

can you please tell me in detail what I have to do to get usb audio working
in sound settings it shows me that there is no hardware????
i didn't manage to solve that problem.
i still have problems replacing the old kernel and modules, after reboot the phone displays some errors involving modprobe then iceauthority files. If someone could upload a newer version using this kernel or a guide to enable sound, it would be excellent.
ok, managed to change to a new kernel and modules with no problems but still.. no audio. By default (no other modifications) i have no audio devices in the hardware tab of "audio" in preferences. When booting up i can see the usb-audio driver loading up and my audio card is recognised as "usb headphones" or something like that, but when the graphical part of ubuntu loads up i can't see nothing related to audio.
Tried with both cheap sound card and logitech usb headphones, same result, no sound.
USB audio works on my Allwinner A10 tablet witn "Unofficial CyanogenMod 9 for many AllWinner A10 tablets" firmware from Christian Troy

hey, thanks for the guide. the link for the firmware doesn't work (anymore?). I did find http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ however the firmware I downloaded only contains a md5 file and not the zip files shown in your guide.
Do you happen to have a copy lying about? Or do you know how to use the md5 file?

If you are saying that you have a single file with .MD5 extension if the file is of good size from around 100-120mb then you need to flash your device using Odin Multidownloader. All the steps are as same as i have shown but you dont need to select all that stuff i,e PDA, Bootloader etc in odin. Just tick the One Package in Odin Multi downloader and browse for your .MD5 file and click start. Thats It..!
Good Luck..
I've been trying to do this, but it seems the USB connection fails always when in download mode. I have tried multiple drivers, ports, cables, spinning around and tapping a table three times, nothing works, I read a post saying it could be windows 8 so I'm going to try it on a win 7 VM shortly. But otherwise I just can't fix it, device is always unrecognized when in download mode.

Hi There,

F1 Smartwatch, MTK6260A, Need some help please if you don't mind...

Hello everyone! Thank you for taking the time to read my post, this is my first post, so please forgive me if I make any mistakes.
The PreLoader Driver for me is not working, at all. I run Windows 8.1.
Now, I've read to install it this way and that, and if you have a yellow exclamation point under device manager, I should be ok.
To run flashtools to make a backup of my firmware, I need a scatter file and the software doesn't allow you to do much of anything unless you select this file.
Fine, so I need to make my own scatter file, so I have the MTK Droid tools to make my scatter file.
Because my drivers don't work, I can't my scatter file and I cannot continue forward with this.
MTK Modem, Debug and Port drivers are all installed and fine and working correctly.
The Preloader and DA USB VCOM port drivers do not work for me.
Can anyone offer some kind of guidance? Suggestions? Driver issues you had and got working?
If I can get my firmware backed up I'll be more than happy to share and try to help tweak and such!
Thanks again for your help!
Anyone? Someone?
Please does anyone have the stock ROM file for apro q18 smart watch

Problems with WiFi & Recovery with rk3036 board used in Mega Drive Flashback Consol

Problems with WiFi & Recovery with rk3036 board used in Mega Drive Flashback Consol
Hi guys,
I am a (bad) developer who is trying to obtain the maximum from the recently released Mega Drive Flashback console.
It is an Android 4.4.4 unit with an rk3036 SoC. The problems I am facing are 2:
1 - WiFi module seems not to be laoded and all .ko modules present in /system/lib/modules give "invalid exec format" for the exception of the mali.ko (gpu) one (when instmod it says "already present"). I would like to know what I have to do to find/build a correct wifi module; reading on the web it seems to be a kernel-related problem so I need to recompile the .ko or find another kernel or find a precompiled .ko which "fits" with the used kernel. I found other kernel.img, system.img and boot.img from other Rockchip devices but I do not know which .ko file to "reuse" (wifi.ko ?). Which WiFi USB dongle do you suggest me for this "challenge" ?
2 - I "stole" a TWRP 3.1.1 from an Android TV firmware using another Rockchip SoC and it is booting fine (I cannot control it via touch screen because the Mega Drive Flashback has not a screen but it is controllable via mouse) but it seems not to recognize/mount any console partition and the mounted ones (the ones present inside the recovery) are 0 bytes and I cannot save options. Can someone help me in making this recovery in a working state ? If needed I can post the recovery.img file.
The device is correctly rooted with SuperSU and has Busybox installed. ADB and MTP drivers are working fine.
Sorry for all those noob questions but we are trying to describe how the console works; you can find what we found out here: https://mdfbrew.org.

Making external wifi adapter work?

I am having a problem understanding what options I have to use my external wifi adapter, TL WN722N, on my Android Phone. I am using a galaxy s10+, rooted with magisk, no custom recovery/kernel. My questions are:
I need to install the driver for this wifi adapter into my Android kernel right?
Do I need to rebuild the kernel for this? I.e. install the driver into the kernel and then flash the kernel, or is there a way where I can load a kernel module which contains the driver without flashing a custom kernel which contains this driver?
What options do I have to install this driver on my Android phone? I am having a hard time finding out how to install this driver into my android phone.
