Is there a way to get USB 2.0? - HTC Excalibur

I have noticed that if I plug the phone into a USB 1.1 port I don't get the windows popup telling me to plug it into a 2.0 port for more speed. Is it really just a 1.1 port on the phone or is there a way to turn on 2.0?

Plug the phone into a 2.0 port. You will have 2.0 speed. The phone supports USB 2.0.

Any idea why XP doesn't poop a brick when I connect it to a 1.1 like it would with any other 2.0 device in the 1.1 port?

That I don't know. I don't want to guess and give you the wrong answer, but I can advise you to be happy that you are getting one less error message from Windows!
I use a mac- better to use Mac and have people think you are unintelligent than to use Windows and remove all doubt!!!

USB GPS Receiver capable?

Hey guys...
After reading the last wm6 vanilla thread, i can imagine how annoying i was w/ the wm6 black 2.0 release b*ing and whining about how i coudln't my wireless to work...
anyways, i'll try to cut the stupidity posts to a minimum but in the meantime maybe someone has tried using a usb gps receiver on their phone.
i'm trying to configure ports and stuff via usb, but not too sure what baud rate, which com port etc to set everything at for maximum usage... in fact i don't even know if the darn thing works with my phone either
about to reinstall googlemaps to see if the usb will work....
i know everyone is using bluetooth, but i had this garmin usb 18 laying around for my laptop and bought a usb --> mini usb adapter and thought i'd try it
if anyone has tried, please help me out... thanks
wrong forum
Not a stupid question, a stupid place to ask it. Try here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=307
you can't connect a USB GPS to the phone.
the USB GPSs require a server side USB port, the phone is only a client USB port. Hence, you can't connect peripherals to it such as GPSs, printers etc...
Bluetooth GPS units work very well with the Hermes though!?

OTG through a HUB

Hey! So i managed my S2 to work with an OTG adapter. Now it recognizes Flash drives, USB mouse and keyboard as well. My problem is though, that i'd want to use both the mouse and the keyboard simultaneously, and later on my tablet as well.
I've got a USB hub which was pretty cheap i guess,
ht tp://itmedia.sk/item-images/other-usb_omega_hub4portSTARpowercapable/it6818_2.jpeg?nc=032
When i connect it to the OTG adapter it lights up, and if there's a flash drive attached to it when i plug it in, the phone recognizes the flashdrive without problem. As soon as i plug in a second flash drive, the light goes off from the HUB and both of the sticks get unrecognized. Also, the mouse nor the keyboard works through the HUB somehow..
I need to buy a specific hub with OTG support or a power hub perhaps? Could anyone help in this? I looked over google and stuff but people seemed to say different stuff at almost every site.. Thanks!!

Oh well that's quite interesting. Then you're saying this piece of video could be fake perhaps?
Since i can post links yet, search for this on youtube: USB HUB Support On GALAXY S2
Check the very first video.
I'm convinced that the every phone can handle only one device connected at the same time.

Well, it surely doesn't seem that way, that's why i was asking, since it's possible.
Weird.... i got sgs2 and 4-port usb hub and when i connect 2 pendrives to hub and hub to phone everything works good (i see UsbDriveA and UsbDriveB). If your hub have dc input you can try connecting power supply to this hub. Maybe this hub isn't compatibile with your phone.

[Q] Weird USB Problem.. SGH-T999

"This device can perform faster" note when I plug my device to the laptop.
Tested with no help:
- Two similar devices connecting without a problem. (Bought together)
- All ports tested on 2 different computers.
- all *#7284# "qualcomm usb settings".
- MTP mode and PTP (camera) mode.
- USB debugging On and Off.
I'm pretty hopeless..
Could this be a hardware problem?
The device is 3 months old.
Adroid 4.1.1
What should I try?
Thanks.
There is not really any "Problem". What's happened is that you plugged a USB2 (or faster) into a USB1 port.
In plain english, your computer might just be a little older, and not have all the faster stuff that newer pc's have.
If you plug in a older USB Device, it would work with no problem and no message.
If you plug in a newer USB2 device (it runs 2X faster than USB1) it will show you that message, but the device will still work fine, except it will be slower than if you had plugged it in a USB2 slot.
If your Computer is older, it might be a benefit for you to get it updated, if there is software available via Microsoft Updates.
If it's XP that's running, you could benefit using the Service Pack2 or Service Pack3 updates.
It may also be that your hardware is going as fast as it possibly can, and cannot go any faster. Bottom line is, it'll work fine so don't worry.
Aloha!

Sorry Dude,
Yes,I read your message, "Similar devices" could have been anything. Did you try the phone with the problem on another DIFFERENT computer?
Are "all my devices" USB2? You were not clear with your explanation. sorry, I was just trying to help you, but you don't really need any help from me after all! You seem to know so much more than I do. Sorry to have bothered ............
Absolutely not! I appreciate any help..
But again you have not read what I wrote:
"- All ports tested on 2 different computers."
Why you asking again?
I have a new motherboard with both usb 2 and 3...I get the same message. How old is the laptop? If your laptop has usb 3 try that. Also go to google and type that usb notification and see what people say about it.

Any idea?

USB 3.0 disconnects

Whenever I plug in my S3 to my USB 3.0 ports it constantly disconnects and reconnects. Has anyone found a fix for this? And no, I can't use a USB 2.0 port because my laptop doesn't have any (HP Omen).
EDIT: Even tried the registry edit and that didn't work.
sooooooooooooo no one knows how to fix this...... ok good talk

S20 Plus connection stability with USB 3.0 specifically

Ok this is driving me nuts so I gotta ask...I have a S20 Plus 5G (Verizon) and have a brand new custom-built computer with a ridiculous amount of USB 3.0, 3.1 ports. I have to tether my phone to my PC for internet so I use the USB-C to USB-C cable that came with the phone to connect to the single USB-C port on the computer. I also use said connection for Samsung DEX (not simultaneously, would if I could lol).
With this specific setup, I don't have any issues at all, but I know for a fact that it's not a 3.0 connection because of the cable (the "Device can perform faster when connected to USB 3.0" message confirms as much). The cable is obviously the limiting factor holding it back from 3.0 so I tried replacing it in the setup with various (both USB-C to USB-C and USB-C to USB-A) 3.0 cables and sure enough, I get the correct "connected through USB 3.0" message under my device's name in the devices menu.
However, no matter which 3.0 cable I try or which 3.0+ port I plug it into, I always run into the issue of the device randomly disconnecting/reconnecting every so often. I get the whole disconnected/reconnected sound deal and the "select what happens with this device" Autoplay message. I've tried turning off Autoplay, turning off the USB notification message option, going into device manager/registry and ensuring that every single thing related to the USB ports has the power conservation option turned of, etc.
One major thing is that when I created a USB 3.0 "certified" connection with my mom's slightly older custom-build computer, it seemingly had no problems holding the connection, so it appears as though it's something on my computer specifically that's causing it. I just frankly have no idea what that thing could be at this point. Any ideas?

I have not understood your intention.
Why do you have to connect the phone via USB cable to your computer?
If you have internet via mobile data on your phone and want to share it with the computer, you can tether via mobile hotspot of your phone. Just connect the computer via wifi to your phone's hotspot.
And your device should be able to use Dex wirelessly. I read about it in one of the latest Android 11 OneUI 3.1 changelog.
