Hi,
is there any possibility to power external devices from Wallaby/Himalaya? I need about 3.3V - 20mA. I didn't find suitable pins in the PDA's connectors. Have somebody any ideas?
...first of all, my configuration:
G3 Wizard (i-mate branded)
- IPL/SPL 2.18
- radio 2.37.11
- NBD 7.4 touch
my phone works perfect all time but 1 hour ago I've connected it to my pc and SURPRISE: no power light and no charging....
O__o i've changed my usb cable but...nothing!
I've tried to connect to power usb cable (original shipped with my wiz...): nothing at all....PANIC!!!!
hard reset....no solution!
i've tried to connect cable very slowly and...now it's charging but....
...NO ACTIVESYNC!!!
i've tried to connect/disconnect some times and power charging is perfect but NO activesync...
ANY IDEA????
------
extra info: last efficient connection is via WM5torage to a customer notebook...and it works ok
now...also via WM5torage NO DATA TRANSFERT
in bootloader mode it connects...and i downgraded succesfully to last official wm5 italia i-mate rom.
...but no connection
did you try another computer? or the power adapter that plugs into the wall?
yes, of course!

...it's a good question: too many times it's a joke...but not now.
i've tried in 3 computers...and the response is the same: NO connection, no "usb error"...nothing...only power charging....
If I put (with camera button and softreset) in bootloader mode it's ok...
"bip" on computer and USB un the bottom of the tuchscreen.
I've upgraded anothet time to NBD 7.4 but...
NO CONNECTION
This doesnt really belong in the wm6 forum i think. but maybe you also got a bad activesync on the computer, just start everything fresh again
...usb activesync now works!
after 7 (seven) downgrade and upgrade wm6 -> wm5 -> xda6 -> wm5 -> xda6r2 -> wm5 & so on....
ACTIVESYNC NOW WORKS!!!!
(obviously SAME computer, same Activesync 4.5, same USB port/cable)
i don't know why....but...
I'm HAPPY
thanks to all!

I had a problem like that once, I discovered it was my firewall blocking me out of active sync. I had outpost firewall, I disabled it and it connected perfectly

Yeah I use Cisco VPN for my work, and it screws up ActiveSync at times. Sometimes allows my phone to connect with no problem, and othertimes won't allow activesync to see my phone. Usually turning off the enhanced check box in the USB to PC connections settings will get around it, but not always.

Similar problem
This may possibly not be the solution but I had a similar problem. I have an O2 xda mini s and after several days searching I discovered the problem. I opened up the xda and discovered that where the mini usb was soldered to the board, one of the solder points had come loose. The usb was not loose enough to stop the xda charging. By pressing down on the loose solder point the xda immediately showed up and syncing with my pc. I have now resoldered the usb back down and it works fine.
I hope that this is not the problem as it is damned fiddly soldering it back in place.
Hope this helps
I solved my problem
Hello Friends..
I have solve my problem,
I opened the k-jam and renewed the point of usb port with solder machine.
Now it is well working. Charging and sync.
If you have similar problem so i think you can try this one.
But i think you must very carefully.
Solder machine must be very thin.

Have you been using some kind of holder for your wizard on your car?
I have seen several USB connectors with a bad attachment to the PCB because it has been used with car Holders that had the USB fixed.
Hello folks,
I am stuck and I hope you guys can help me out with a tip or two.
What I am trying to do is:
1) Connect my smartphone to a desktop through a USB cable (or OTG cable or anything that will do the job) and make the desktop think that a usb keyboard was connected to it and not a smartphone (hence no need for drivers installation).
2) After usb cable connection, the smartphone will be able to send keystrokes to the desktop.
Points of consideration:
* The desktop has no bluetooth nor wireless connections and nothing can be installed in it.
* installing an app (downloaded from store) into the smartphone is possible, but with no kernel modifications or root, I mean out of the box solution.
From reading those two great links:
[1] https://stackoverflow.com/questions...ogram-android-to-act-as-physical-usb-keyboard
[2] http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1871281
It appears my best option is to use a USB cable with a "special hardware level converter " and attache it both to the desktop and smartphone. It will tell the desktop it is a USB keyboard and receive keystrokes from the smartphone, before forwarding them to the desktop.
My question is:
Does such cable exist?
If yes, where can I find it?
If not, is there a company that can help make it?
Thanks guys, Mozart
How do I connect my Android TV stick to my laptop? It has no reset or power on button. Just a microsd slot and two USB ports: a regular one and a mini usb one.
Hi can you tell us a little more about your device what make brand ect ect also some photos would really help
yes model number would help a lot.
usually it is going to be connected via the regular USB connector to the PC. Then you should see the internal and/or external SD cards as part of your computers resources.
Power on and off is by plugging in the power source, which sounds like it is micro-usb. Then remove to power off.
additional tips...
Some additional tips; I hope they can help...
In the OS settings, under "Device", subheading "USB", make certain that "connect to PC" is checked.
Also, if you use a microUSB-to-USB cable to connect the dongle to your PC, make certain you use a cable that you know has all four wires internally connected.
- I was going nuts one time, trying to figure out why I could not get the stick PC to connect over USB, and it turned out I was using a cheap microUSB-to-USB cable that was intended for power ONLY. (it had only the two power wires in the cable, and not the two data wires). Swapping the cable out solved that dilemma.
Cheers!
Could some one please suggest a way in which I can avoid running down the phone's battery when accessing the internet via a hard wired connection into the USB micro port of my mobile phone?
Do you think this would work?

For this purpose I do not want to access the internet on the phone by wireless.

I have tried:
IA micro to usb adapter: Plugable: Model USB2-OTGE100. It does not have a power supply and uses my phone's battery to power the adapter.
A Micro-B usb hub that has 3 standard usb outputs and one power input. It also has a Charge to OTG switch and it does not do what I want as it does not charge the phone at the same time as browsing the internet.
