[Q] Mini usb to usb?

sorry if this has been posted before but is it possible in anyway to connect a usb flash drive to my desire using an adaptor or something :? saying that is there an app available to browse and external USB

No. It is impossible.

possible, yes...worth the hassle, nope.

my frined has a galaxy 2 and he has a cable for it, we tired a lot of things, but nothing works.

its a shame really
xoom usb host works pretty well - keyboards, mice, ps3 controller - out the box too
but for the desire - everything was picked up as an in-car device (without flashing new kernels)

I saw somebody last week connecting a usb flash drive to on his mobile but I didn´t had the time to see and ask which phone it was.
Have been thinking about it ever since. Would be so handy to push your date to a flash drive on the go.
I been to the same bar in the hope I would see that person again but I haven´t saw him again. I´m afraid it was a tourist.

It looks a big hassle indeed if you have to switch kernels to get to slave mode again.

it's nokia i believe

Odin Flash didn't work?

So I followed this guide

but it didn't state if I in fact HAD to use Altered Beast or not so I assumed it was just a Rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1181171
I downloaded the Charged V2 kit and used this
CI510_VZW_EP1F_ALL_ONE-LTE-CP_REV3_user_CL300919_Rooted_Debloated.tar.md5
The flashing passed successfully but when I booted it back up, it wasn't debloated at all. I was staring right back at the terrible Samsung crap software I intended to get rid of.
It's been a very long time since I've done all this new phone altering since my OG Droid over a year ago so I dont' remember if I was supposed to do something else? I can't seem to find 1 straight to the point guide anywhere.
So if any of the pro's can help out a fellar I'd greatly appreciate it.
[EDIT] Ok apparently it did work, but there's still some annoying apps in there I figured would be gone. Just saw superuser

you can just download Root Explorer and remove the extra bloat yourself from /system/app and /data/data.. Super Manager works well too if you want a free alternative
btw that rom EP1F is a bit dated (in order from oldest to current: EP1F->EP1H->EP1W->EP1Q->EP3H) but if you like it by all means you don't have to change or update.. if you want though the newer ones are in Development or the kernels/roms/mods sticky in general, and flash the same way as the one you just did

the newest one EP3H has been very responsive and stable for me.. there's even custom roms you can load over them for a different look and more customizability, Humble and Infinity

Ran into a bit of a problem. Apparently the USB cable that came with my phone is the only one that works with data transfer for hooking up to tmy computer, none of my other USB cables will enable the mass storage or whatever to my computer.
That cable is at my parents house that I was at over the weekend and I won't be back there for a week....is there another route around this?

what are you trying to do exactly? you can always download the files straight to your phone and flash in CWM, no Odin though without a computer... my Charge connects with a lot of different cables though, I don't know why yours would only work with the stock one

well that's lame, I'm trying the one that came with my moto droid. It connects to charge but nothing mounts in windows but as soon as I use my samsung cable I get it

that's pretty old school, and is probably why its not working.. all the ones I've tried are relatively newer

Well, I could try CWM, how exactly do I get to it from boot. Issue I think I'm having now with it is if I reboot to it in rom manage I come up to a screen with the android standing next to a triangle sign with an exclamation point then I think it either shuts off or I had to shut it off, I don't remember.

Rom Manager doesn't work well with the Charge.. the only sure fire way to get it to work is flash CWM in Odin, battery pull to turn it off then hold volume up, home, and power until Samsung appears then let go of power button until CWM comes up

Well I got the new rom on there. OMFG I went from like 950 in quadrant all the way up to 1440+ :| all the games I was playing that were choppy all play smooth as freshly shaved balls now lol.
I still can't use any other usb cable though. I even tried my friends HTC droid incredible 2 cable and it didn't work.
Does Samsung have a history of making their usb cables proprietary or anything?

No it appears to be hit or miss for some people. I have used many different cables from blackberry, kindle, and other random stuff and not had one not work yet.

Hey do you know if there is a newer rom or not? Or one you'd recommend trying, ever since I started using this rom a crap ton of apps on the android market are saying it's not compatible with my device

infuse mhl enabled in 2.3.6 official rom?

been hunting around, I have an infuse 4g I got from newegg marketplace, the mhl adapter was removed from packaging, ordered a pny one, no dice, it didn't work
Rma'd it, new one shows up today, same thing, phone beeps when you hook it up but no mirrored video on tv.
after a bunch of digging around I see that froyo supports mhl, gingerbread doesn't, phone is running 2.3.3 , I would really like to have the mhl-hdmi function available, any suggestions for a fix / workaround or whole new rom to get mhl-hdmi working?

Ryan, you're running on Roger's GB. 2.3.3
When it came out before Att, out had crippled hdmi/hml adapter. The video is also inferior in resolution.
Read up on it a a bit. Flash a new gb 2.3.6 gb. It will support high res hdmi and mhl output. you can also flash one of the custom kernels by Zen or Entropy.
They have the hdmi mhl fjx.

Correct me if I'm wrong...but I thought he rogers phone doesn't even have the hardware or something to support mhl...
But I woulv still gives qksters suggestion a shot...

they are identical in every way as far as i can tell with the exception of the att logo. most canadians are too sissy to try an att rom but i'll bet money you can enable mhl by flashing an att rom and kernel. it's pretty safe too. it's actually hard to hose the bootloaders on an infuse much unlike other galaxy s phones. if the phone soft bricks it can be recovered with odin or heimdall (heimdall preferred) in a matter of minutes to factory condition. the factory would really have no way to know you ever flashed it since it is raw file system images.

USB OTG

Has anyone been able to hook up a flash drive yet with USB OTG? Been waiting for my cable to arrive to test out. Just wondering since I didn't order a powered hub with it, since half the forums I have searched require it to work. If anyone has had any luck please let me know.

Nevermind figured it out myself. Need the powered hub.
On another note I am starting to really hate Samsung after seeing this. SamSung

Yep, we have a guide posted in the General section. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1629134

official RUU is neccessary？

Will there ever be a chance that REAL usb otg is enabled? Which means without connecting external power? (I dont consider using an y cable and then externally powering usb to be "on the go")
While most modern phones made by samsung and some other manufacturers enable it by default but htc doesn't is beyond me.

I really want this too... i could control my dslr. and with power connection needed, it gets so worthless, because there isnt always a socket around...

Apparently Qualcomm does but HTC removes that feature.

in the leaked one x jb update you can use usb otg without external power, hopefully they will do the same for our phone.

[Q] Apeared to have bricked my phone. Recommendations?

I have an ATT HTC X one I had been running a clean ROM. I searched for a Jelly Bean ROM I thought I correctly identified my phone but...
After installing slim rom I get nothing on power on. And I get nothing with the charger plugged in.
Sucks these devices have such similar names. I suppose things went so well last time I was somewhat more casual.
I am leaving it plugged in over night.
Currently on Linux but do have the Windows 7 boot disk I used to do the rooting.
Can someone point me to a description of possible solutions?
Clearly the take it back to ATT and say it just stopped working one is on the list.
I have seen the attempt to boot and power cycle while watching for auto detect devices. I certainly can put a mini linux on a thumb drive.
I suppose the goal is to somehow write something that can boot strap me back?
I am a Linux savvy person so I can use dd if needed. Just need someone to contact me to point me in the right direction.

You bricked, and now you're mad. I don't get it? If we put up giant flashing red warning all over this site, it still wouldn't do any good...
Before I get flamed and what not over calling you mad, take a look at the post in the unbrick evita thread.

I'm not sure, but probably. My friend had told me about this Ice Cold Jelly or something that I should get. For some reason I didn't even check that it was international. Though I was wondering more along the lines of warranty, could I possibly take it to an AT&T store and get a replacement?
Searched some forms relating to this and really wish I came here before making the attempt based off of all the warnings. Good excuses I can come up with.
