[Q] any ROMs with usb on the go support? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

The sIII has awesome USB otg support stock but on cm10 and aokp this doesn't seem to he the case.

All of the touchwiz based roms. (beans, cleanrom, and synergy)

Thanks! I wish aokp supported it but I will make do.

I tried almost every tw based rom including beans custom rom, synergy and cleanrom. None of them seemed to react to my on the go cable. The cable works fine in my friend's bone stock s III. Am I doing something wrong?

Confirmed working on CleanRom, but like the above said, I believe any stock-based/TW rom should work. I've used both an OTG usb cable and a micro-to-full usb adapter (which wasn't labeled as OTG) and both worked for me.
What are you trying to use it with? Some higher-drain devices may need a separate power source.

A 4gb flash drive and a wireless keyboard/mouse. Nothing that didn't work before root and rom flashing. Thanks for your help!

[Q] USB On-The-Go on CM10?

I am using Bruce's CM10 with 3.0.51 kernel, and I am not able to use the USB OTG function. I have the right cable (yes, I know that Sensation requires external power, blah blah blah), but nothing happens. What have I to do? Does this kernel/this ROM support OTG? I really don't know what to do
Yeah, thats a good question. I have ViperS with Overclocked kernel where the OTG works, but I want update on CM10, is there any kernel or fix, howto make it working?

[Q] PC won't recognize transformer

I've searched and searched throughout for a problem related exactly to mine and haven't been able to come up with much. Here goes: I flashed revolver 4 then flashed guevers kernel for OC capability since revolver parts is no longer working. Tablet works great and is super fast. However, I connected it to my PC for the first time since the flash to transfer some files and windows automatically searched for drivers. It picked up some acer abd driver automatically then automatically opened droid explorer (I probably downloaded this at some point). Also, the tablet will automatically check abd mode, without being prompted, when the usb is connected no matter how many times I uncheck it.
So I uninstalled droid explorer and uninstalled the acer abd driver and tried it again with the same result. I downloaded asus suite with the drivers to no avail. The PC will not take the asus drivers as the correct ones. It keeps searching out this acer abd driver. Now I'm thinking this problem is related to the kernel.
Any ideas whats going on here?
I'd start by either testing on another computer, or testing on the same computer with a different OS, like a Ubuntu LiveCD or something alike. If it works in linux then it's almost definitely a driver issue. If it still doesn't, I'd suspect the cable. Even if it charges, it may have issues with data. Try another USB port (from another controller if possible) on the computer also... you never know.
If it's caused or not by the kernel/rom I can't help there, never used those.
Today, I tried a different computer and it does the same thing. I flashed another kernel with no difference. I'm thinking it has to be the ROM. Tried to flash CM9 but it failed to flash for some reason. Still looking for suggestions on troubleshooting as I'm already way beyond my knowledge level at this point.
It was definitely something that had to do with revolver. Flashed revolution and am getting closer to resolution. Now I can connect with asus sync but my computer still doesn't see it in windows explorer. I've got the stock asus ROM and kernel. I may have to go back to completely stock as much as I hate to do it. I'm still open to suggestions though.

Aren't revolver and revolution old ICS roms ?
Try a new JellyBean one, TeamEOS4 nightly combined with KatKernel works amazingly

Tips - Wipe SYSTEM, CACHE and DALVIK CACHE before flashing anything
Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache between each zip you flash and after flashing everything.
Thanks. I will try teameos 4 and see what happens. I knew my others were older but hey still seemed really popular. I have been trying to stay away from JB until Asus officially releases it.

They won't, TF101 is dead to them now, Custom is our way to stay updated now, not that it's a bad thing, ASUS stock ROMs were terrible

Jawbone UP not recognized with 4.2.2 ROMS

Hey All,
I purchased a jawbone UP this weekend and was running Slim Rom on my HD. The way the UP works is it syncs its data through the 3.5mm headphone jack. The first one I bought wouldn't get recognized at all on any 4.2.2 ROM and when I revert back to a 4.1.2 based ROM it would recognized and unlock and everything, just woudlnt sync. I ended up with a defect DOA device and had to get a new one.
the new one however now works fine on the 4.1.2 ROM. i havent tried to switch back to 4.2.2 yet but i have a hunch that it won't work.
I wanted to know if anyone else has one of these and if they are using a 4.2.2 ROM and have it working. if so what ROM and Kernel combo are you using? I didnt wanna go nuts flashing random crap just to see if it works but i'll get a feeler here and see
thanks,
It's a known issue with 4.2.2 ROM. I had the issue with my Bionic too. I ended up returning it.
I can vouch that it works on the carbon night lies.
But it works with stock
I had the same issue with my Buttered AOKP ROM. Since I used SS3, I switched to my stock ROM and everything works fine. So, I just switch ROMs (a matter of a couple of reboots) whenever I want to sync data. I know it sucks... But till Jawbone supports custom ROMs, this seems the only way to use the UP app.
I have installed UP on both ROMS (my stock ROM (4.0.3) for syncing and on my 4.2.2 ROM for my other data-wrangling stuff).

I have the galaxy s4... i was running gummy rom 4.4.2 and had this problem. I didn't want to go stock cuz i would lose tethering ability unless I modded this separately, so i tried the Google play edition and this works for me. have been using since with no problems.

SCREWED???

1. I lost connectivity to PC due to USB port on phone (it's not the cable, cables work on other phones)
2. Got my new phone so I reformatted the drive on the Infuse to clear it.
PROBLEM:
I have CWM Recovery, but cannot flash a rom! I load a rom onto an external Card, but get a message that I need to be rooted!
QUESTION:
Is there a way to flash a non-rooted, stock rom, without needing PC connectivity?
Is there a zip file out there of a stock rom? I only see ones requiring Odin, which doesn't help w/o PC connectivity.
I'm not aware of a package that will get you to pure stock without using Odin or Heimdall.
What firmware was last on the phone? GB, JB, or froyo?
If JB you may be out of luck, since there is no CWM option to repartition storage space. If GB or froyo I can adapt an install package to get you pure stock ... Let me know.
If you want to get close to stock...a deodexed stock with stock kernel, and you currently have red recovery, do the following (make sure to copy files to your internal SD card as red CWM does not read from the external card):
Copy rom and stock kernel packages from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1508619
Boot cwm, flash rom
Boot rom, install root file mgr
Delete these files:
/system/app/Superuser.apk
/system/bin/su
/system/xbin ... (delete all files, but keep folder)
Boot cwm, flash stock kernel
Boot rom
You should now have a stock rom with deodexed system apps.

Thanks, I'll try that

Update.... The steps above will only work if you were running GB or Froyo firmware and have red recovery. In that case, you may also need to disable voodoo lagfix before flashing the stock kernel. Easiest way is to disable lagfix from red CWM and reboot prior to flashing anything. This will convert you back to stock RFS file system.
If your phone is or was running JB firmware, your file system has been repartitioned differently than stock, and the steps I detailed above will not work. (That's what I was implying when I said "If you are on JB, you may be out of luck").
Red CWM will not repartition your phone. The only ways available at present are Heimdall and Odin, and both require PC-USB connection. You might want to try different USB cables. I have one Infuse that does not work (even for charging) with the stock Samsung cables unless I hold it from underneath - not a good situation when flashing firmware ). I have other 3rd party (higher quality) cables that work just fine with that phone for both charging and flashing.
Good luck.

I may try a cable, the only problem is I've tried every cable that I have, that are working fine with my S3 and my old HTC Inspire...makes me think that the USB is shot

This is a long shot, but maybe try (with battery removed), spraying (with short bursts) the USB port from outside with some of this stuff:
http://www.amazon.com/CRC-05101-QD-Electronic-Cleaner/dp/B000CCMLD0
you can then try gently inserting and removing a usb cable immediately after spraying, and repeating a couple times. Last time, just spray a bit and let it sit. Give it some time to evaporate - 10 to 20 minutes or more depending on how much you sprayed into the phone, then reassemble and try USB again.
If you have a magnifying glass, you can also check to see if any pins are missing in the connector.

Wifi not working with custom roms. Help!

So I successfully rooted my note 10.1 and wanted to try some custom roms out. Cm, Paranoid Android, etc. I've flashed 3 different roms only to come to a dead end with this issue. Rom flashes correctly, ,when it comes time to connect to wifi, it scans, tries to connect and then just says saved. Never actually connecting.i revert back to factory rooted TW and all is good. Can't figure this out. ?..
