I'm hoping someone here can shine a little light on this. My car's receiver is a Pioneer DEH-3100UB, which includes a USB port and is designed specifically to connect an iPod via special cable or any Class 1 USB storage device. The Pioneer will not detect the G1, as other people have discussed on a bunch of car audio and other forums. The interesting part is this: If I take the Micro SD card out of my G1 and connect it to the Pioneer via a USB SD card reader, the card is fully readable. I've tried all sorts of suggestions from enabling/disabling USB debugging, to creating a shortcut to the SD Card via AnyCut and checking off the use as mass storage device option. People are not having this difficulty with other receivers including a usb port.
Obviously I'm not looking for help with the Pioneer, but I am very curious what the heck happens when you tell the G1 to mount. What does it do that makes it differ in any way from a 'Class 1 USB device?' Is there a way to alter what the hell happens when you connect the G1?? Is the G1 not really a Class 1 USB device?
Why was rooting/JF so much easier than hooking up to my car stereo
Sounds like a driver problem. Just about any card reader you install has to have drivers of some kind. Maybe the OS on the car stereo doesn't have drivers that support the card reader built into the G1? Just a thought.
by class 1, do you mean USB 1.0 ?
coz the G1 has a USB 2.0 port. and as any usb 2.0 device, it is supposed to be backward compatible. The only issue is the speed as it will connect at the lower speed.
Just wanted you to know its not just pioneer. I have a Clarion VRX785BT, and it too cannot connect to it It makes me sad. HOPEFULLY I can get BT audio streaming working as it does support bluetooth audio...
What happens ON THE PHONE when you plug the USB cable into the Pioneer? When I connect mine, it comes up with a notification (USB Connected) and I can choose Mount which switches over to the Mass Storage driver. Have you done that? Just a suggestion, because I can't think what else it could be,

Correct. It's not always the phone. Realize that some of the world has not caught up to the fact that the G1 exists.
The G1 is a usb 2.0 device !!!
Please note: USB 1.0 or 2.0 (speed ratings) have nothing to do with the OP's issue.
Class 1 is a certain type of connection, not the speed.

The G1 only support Headset and Hands free BT profiles - neither are what you need for streaming (quality) audio over BT. We'll have to wait for a BT update with A2DP profile - The Cupcake update (if it exists) is rumored to include A2DP

This isnt going to fix this problem, but just buy a cheap auxiliary cable and mini usb to 3.5mm converter, and plug it in through the aux jack on your head unit. Thats how i play the music on my G1.
Is there a way to alter what happens on the phone when it detects a USB connection, modify the usb driver, or something else totally ridiculous to get the damn thing to work?
I have a MyTouch 3G that I rooted and run Cyanogen on.
I recently got a new G2 (hate that its not perma-rooted yet) and have my SIM card in it.
So... what cool things can I do with my old MyTouch without cellular data connection (besides the obvious mp3 player, gaming device, etc)? Its a small computer with usb, bluetooth, wifi, gps, and a camera.
Some ideas:
Is it possible to make it a bluetooth receiver for music? If so, I could have it permanently hooked up to a car stereo via 3.5mm cable and then other things could connect to it via bluetooth. This would be useful for my parent's RV which has an aux input but no bluetooth.
Can turn it into a security device and stream video?... either stream it to another computer on the network which runs a webserver, or run a webserver on the android device itself?
Can you turn it into a USB trackpad to plug into any computer?
I know you can plug the phone into a computer and it appears as external storage, but can you plug external storage into the phone? Could I buy a huge 1Tb+ external hard drive and let this thing be a fileserver (or anything a SheevaPlug / PogoPlug can do?)
Can it become a wireless repeater?
Is anybody doing any of these things now?
What are you doing with your old device?
I expect ROMs out there geared towards a single purpose as more and more people get Android devices then upgrade to newer Android devices.

I use my mytouch4g as a storage device connected to my car stereo.for AAC and mp3 playback. My Kenwood sees it as a standard usb drive once I turn on usb access on the phone
I was reading reviews about the G2x needed some sort of driver to see the sdcard on a pc.
Has anyone connected Their new G2x to the car stereo usb port yet to see if it will work okay
Thanks

I tried it in my Infiniti and it said "check USB or iPod connection." It said the same thing for my G2. If your Kenwood saw the HTC phone my guess would be it should see the LG phone too. Maybe a T-Mobile store will let you try it in the parking lot with their demo unit.
Here are my findings: When connecting the phone to my kenwood system via usb it does nothing more than charge the phone. HOWEVER, if you go into the main settings menu and go to "sd card & phone storage settings" and then check the box "Mass storage only" then connect your phone to the stereo it then see will show the "mount usb storage" option in the notifications panel and allow you to mount the phone as storage. Once I did that, my stereo read the drive. Hope this helps you.
Really appreciate the test, ill get mine on friday

No problem. Glad I could help.
I'm trying to get my Xbox 360 wireless controller and wireless receiver (Chinese knockoff that works perfect on PC) I had laying around to work with my OPO. Sadly this has been harder then I expected. I have ran into the following problem. After I reboot my phone and the receiver is connected through a OTG USB cable, my controller is connected to my OPO and I can move in menus and play a SNES game for example. The problem however is that this connection remains for a very short amount of time, it seems that the phone stops seeing the USB device that is connected. When trying other USB devices this problem does not occur, I tried a USB stick and a USB mouse. Once the connection is lost the only way to regain connection is to reboot the phone.
I have no idea why this is happening
I've tried many settings and tested a lot of stuff:
I followed the steps in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1792531
I also messed around with other product ID settings related to xbox 360 controllers: http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids
On my Windows 7 PC I used USBview.exe to see with which ID the receiver/controller combination was identified which was: 045e 0291 (Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows)
I used the app USB Device Info to see if my OPO was detecting anything via the OTG cable. As mentioned above after a few seconds ~ < 1min it just disappears.
I've searched in general with Google and specifically on XDA and the OPO forums but I've not found a similar problem with regards to the disconnection problem.
Anyway, if someone here has experience with wireless xbox 360 controller on the OPO or USB devices that disappear. Help would be appreciated!
I think I might have found why this will not work correctly, the default kernel of the OPO doesn't have xpad.ko.

The problem is that there are no drivers for the Xbox 360 control pad.
You need xpad.ko for the controller to work and ff-memless.ko for the vibrators.
Unfortunately these have to be built for the kernel you are running and as far as I know nobody has built any for the nexus 5 yet

This OPO kernel has xpad.ko included, I might check it out and see what happens.

Edit3:
Tried the kernel, switched on the xpad module, rebooted.... Still the same problem
Can I use this or this kind of hub and using those all port simultaneously? I already know that the phone supports hdmi out and there is no problem since android 10 usually but I coudn't get this clearly from anywhere. What I exactly want to know is If I can achieve complete radio silence state and still using the phone as android desktop. Like… Connect internet through RJ45, downloading file to USB memory while using hdmi and USB keyboard&mouse.
