[26 MAY] USB Host mode for HD2

Update: We finally have usb host mode working on leo.
The interrupt problem i was having was fixed by liiochen, right here (his blog). He has also tested a few devices like keyboard, mouse, storage etc..
Attached is the kernel and modules in a cwm zip. usb mass storage, usb charging, usb tether and usb adb will NOT work. adb over wifi should be fine. If you were going to ask, it's based on the latest tytung kernel.
Requirements:
ICS rom
Self powered hub OR a Y USB cable
How to:
1) Reboot to recovery
2) flash file
3) reboot to android
It supports both clk/magldr.

great that some1 is working on this as its something that i want for my hd2 especially if u can.get tv out working wish ud post news on how ur getting on and more.developers would help u out i think u should do.a poll on how many people want this as id say a large percentage of hd2 owners on here would say they do. when i finally retire my hd2 would be great to turn it into a media centre by connecting it to tv and a hard drive for files. i hope u keep.at it until u get it working and if u want a beta tester count me in!!

Maybe Rick gave up on this thread, considering none of the posts in it (including this one) apart from his have been development related (we are in the development forum...)
Also, don't you think if he had news he'd post it?

I haven't given up on this but yeah, such people really do nothing but spam the thread for no reason. I will require 2.6.33 kernel at a minimum to continue because usb stack interface was changed between .32 and .33 linux. So instead of starting from scratch, i have asked tweakos who already has a .33 kernel running perfectly for the source code for me to continue, He mentioned he had some data loss but has a backup and it would take him around 4~5 days to recover and upload that somewhere.
As for the news, whatever news i would have about the host controller wouldn't be understood properly as most of it would be regarding low level stuff or unless the news is about release..
As for the possible uses of usb host would be:
1) USB joysticks, (any controller that works with linux) so you can play psx emulator with real controls, and other supporting games
2) USB TV in, Watch TV on your HD2 using a USB powered TV tuner card.
3) USB TV out, Use larger displays for your HD2 using usb monitors or some kind of usb video adapters certified for use with linux
4) USB sound cards for those who want real quality audio with an external usb sound card, but i think android does not support this. will require GNU/Linux distro.
Infact anything that works properly with USB 2.0 in linux will work in kernel space and can be used by apps which have ability for such hardware.

Wow, that's great. I love USB TV out function.

I want it, good luck

Good luck with this one. It would be great to have on our beloved hd2's

[Q] Question about Xperia S UI in ICS and Kernel stuff.

Do you guys think the ICS update will make the interface of our Arc look like the one of Xperia S?
Because I was watching some demos and it looks incredible , especially the music player is way better than the stock one on Arc. I noticed that a certain user called FlamEmo managed to port the Xperia S theme to Arc, and it seems to be working alright, other than some bugs, so I assume there would be no problem such as "Arc is not powerful enough" or stuff like that, so SE really has no excuse not to give that interface (or an improved version of it, since XS has 2.3.7 right now) to every 2011 Xperia phone with ICS.
And my second question, can you tell me exactly what happens if you unlock the bootloader? And by that I mean, which features are lost, which limitations are introduced as soon as you unlock it?
Thanks in advance and have a nice day

Unlocking bootloader you will lose warranty, erase some sectors, hability to set custom kernels...
And yes, ICS will be equal to Xperia S, but when SE release and official rom, or XDA guys exchange a new ROm

About the bootloader unlock, I meant if it would cause me to lose some functionality on stock apps and stuff like that. I've heard the music widget, TrackID and some other stuff stops working if you unlock. Where can I find a complete list of things that stop working or change when you unlock the bootloader? I want to know because I'd like to try CM but obviously I can't without unlocking.
Also, if they really improve upon the S theme and bring it to every Xperia with ICS, that would be seriously awesome. Have they officially commented about that?

Thanks man. I don't care about Facebook (I may be one of the very few on the planet that don't use it) or TrackID (actually, I liked it for identifying tracks over the radio, but I can live without that. I haven't tried the market version yet). What about bricking with updates? ICS is coming and I wouldn't like it if I could not update instantly, but I assume someone will make a flashtool flashable version quite soon. Can I update normally using SEUS even if I'm unlocked?
That would be all, and thanks.

USB Audio not working on AOSP

I tested the following ROMs and discovered they DO NOT support USB Audio:
AICP 3/06/14
AOSB 2/26/14
Carbon 3/02/14
CM10.2 2/01/14
CM11 3/07/14
Liquidsmooth 3/05/14
PACman 3/05/14
Slimkat 2/16/14
I can confirm that USB Audio DOES work with the GPE ROM. My understanding is that the GPE ROM is built from Sense, so I haven't encountered a single non/Sense ROM that supports USB Audio.
Has anybody had any luck with AOSP and USB Audio on the VZW HTC One?

USB audio requires support in the kernel to work. It is highly likely this support is lacking from the aosp kernel. It is completely possible that a dev could include usb audio though. I recall seeing it as not set in the config but the proper files would also need to be put into place and who knows if that would even compile properly into aosp from sense.

I tried using Lunar kernel in addition to the bundled kernel with each ROM.
I will have to check over on the Lunar thread to see if they know whether support is included in the kernel.
Interestingly, I made a little progress by flashing the latest version of the USB Audio Patcher MOD in the thread started by JackNorris. Now I get the familiar HTC One USB Audio stepping (0 or 100%, no middle steps) as well as audio being routed from the speaker.
The problem is no sound comes out of the external DAC, although it is routed away from the speaker. Basically, it is the same behavior after flashing the patch as it is in the Sense ROMs, but just no audio coming from the DAC.
I believe the issue is something missing from the Services.jar part of the framework. I am now in over my head.
Sent from my HTC6500LVW using Tapatalk 2

So on GPE roms audio works and you get output on the DAC, Sense you get stepping but no output, and AOSP stepping with patch but no output
Get the app Sound About from store and try on patched AOSP and report back plz

Any update, im on liquid smooth and may flash back to gpe rom.

USB DACs work on CM11. The issue is that the phone doesn't automatically route all sound to the DAC like the stock ROM does.
It is there and working, but you wouldn't know it since the phone won't play sound through it. It is probably the same case with many other ROMs.

Dunno. Going to have to talk to an expert for that.

I'm willing to do a bit of coding work to help out if needed, GPE roms are not bad at all just shouldn't be the only roms that offer usb audio.

We don't have many devs, and it is because of a few reasons.
1. Verizon took their sweet damn time to release the M7. They were almost 6 months late to the party.
2. Verizon blocked bootloader unlocks on day 1. This made it impossible to develop anything until s-off was achieved. So, this essentially added another month to the release date.
3. There aren't many people with an m7vzw. This is related to #1.

Does lunar kernel Support USB audio

not specifically in features, i doubt the functionality was intentionally left out though.. elemental might and there are some kernel on the international boards that do.. IMO if sound is truly important to you, switch back to sense- im enjoying aptx Bluetooth and Zero Infinitys godly audio and cant say im missing out on anything AOSP except for inferior quick settings (viper ROM has all the themeing you'll ever need

[Q] Need assistance with Android, moved away from iOS.

Hello everyone,
I have done quite a bit of research over the past few days but I am quite overwhelmed and confused, I thought I will post my questions here as I am now a proud owner of a Sony Xperia Z1 Compact.
I ended up winning a Sony Xperia Z1 Compact from a work competition just the other day, before then I was using my iPhone 4 ever since it came out. I have never owned an Android device, I wish to root it mostly to theme the device. I have tried the Themer application in the Playstore which is fantastic in it's own right, but it doesn't let me create my own. I'm a huge Apple person and I ended up Jailbreaking all my iDevices so I wish to get some of that power out of my Android phone.
1. How harmful is it to root, unlock bootloader etc?.. I would imagine it is no different than Jailbreaking.
2. Am I able to store absolutely everything on the SD card when it comes to applications and tweaks?
3. Is it possible to remap the physical buttons to do other things?
4. I have came across Cyanogen quite a lot, is it stable and will I notice any speed issues compared to stock OS?
5. Is there a "Tweak store" of sorts to download all the extra stuff after rooting the device, similar to "Cydia" for iDevices?
I would really appreciate some assistance, I do apologize once again for being extremely new. It's just a little complicated when you hear there are so many versions of Android and rooting tools for individual devices!

Hi, I do not own the device but I've been in Sony and Android ecosystem for quiet long. So I can probably answer most of your questions.
1. Its not harmful at all! In fact since Sony devices don't get hard bricked you can't go wrong with it!
2. You can, once rooted! Ofc, you'll need mod of some kind.
3. Yup!
4. Speed issues? Probably not! But you might lose several functionalities, major one being the Camera quality. As Sony camera works as great as it is on stock only.
5. This forum is your tweak store.

Thanks for getting back to me very quickly. I did not know Sony devices cannot get hard bricked. So you're saying whatever I do to it software wise, I cannot not physically render the phone useless?
How bad is the camera quality once you root? is it very noticeable, are people trying to improve the quality?
I will definitely have browse this forum more, is there a particular place you would suggest or should I just stay in the Z1 Compact thread?

I've been using Sony (ericsson) devices since forever and I can tell you you'll love it. About the brick - feel safe. Whatever goes wrong with the phone just flash the original stock FTF firmware via Flashtool and your phone is like new. It's not necessary to switch to CyanogenMod as Sony's firmware is very smooth and fast on our devices thanks to the hardware and the lower resolution. You can just root and install one of the stock based roms in the development section. No need to unlock and you can get 4K video and 120fps slow motion video without losing picture quality
Edit: You don't lose quality when you root. Sony uses bionz image processor which requires the bootloader to be locked to work. If you unlock your BL you will have pictures with colder colors (from my observations) and more noise since Bionz is not processing the shots.

No loss of picture quality, that's contradicting with what KyleSforza said. If something did go wrong with the device, and I flashed back to the original stock FTF firmware, will it leave traces of the root on my phone in case I had to send the handset back for warranty repair or anything?.. Also how does one obtain the original stock firmware, would that be in the development section or on Sonys website somewhere? Thanks so much!

Look my edited post, I have explained why picture quality gets bad. As long as you use stock based firmware on locked bootloader (BL) you will not lose quality. About the warranty - I think rooting does not drop it but unlocking the BL does. You need to read some of the threads in this section before doing anything. When you flash the FTF everything goes back to stock and you will lose the root. As long as you BL is locked and you are on stock firmware your warranty is not voided.
Edit: You can find FTFs in the development section as well

I am using CyanogenMod and it is obviously better than Sony stock ROM.. Just two issues I have faced on CyanogenMod.. Sound volume is very low and camera quality is also bad.. Except these two, everything is more stable than stock ROM..

1. How harmful is it to root, unlock bootloader etc?.. I would imagine it is no different than Jailbreaking.
Rooting is a bit more work than jailbreaking, because no simple one-click-method esists anymore/yet/at the moment. A rooted device allows you to modify EVERYTHING there is on your device (software wise). This naturally brings some dangers, such as losing all your data, or bricking it. As the posters above already stated, it is quite hard to do lasting damage to your phone. Overclocking and removing overheat protection might, but other than software-induced hardware damage, it is nearly imposible. Keep in mid that playing with partitions might require you to open the device to repair the software.
Additionally, rooting via Bootloader unlocking* removes Sony's DRM-Keys. This mainly stops Xreality and the Bionz image processor from working. it is possible to back up those keys, and i would recomend doing that. It complicates rooting a lot, but makes it possible to go back to a 100% stock phone if you ever want to. they are located in their own partition (TA). flashing another TA partition than your own will also cause your phone to be permanently broken.
2. Am I able to store absolutely everything on the SD card when it comes to applications and tweaks?
You should be able to, yes. I am however not sure how you mean that. Some tweaks like init.d scripts need to be in the system folder, as have some of the apps. It is certainly possible to have them elsewhere, but it will require some effort. Why do you want to have everything on the external memory?
3. Is it possible to remap the physical buttons to do other things?
Yes.
4. I have came across Cyanogen quite a lot, is it stable and will I notice any speed issues compared to stock OS?
CM is stable, yes. they have "Snapshot" builds, which are lightly quality tested (boots, features work as they should in most usecases, etc) and nightlies. Nightlies are builds that are generated automatically every night by a bot (3 actually) and are also quite stable. But it can happen that there are mayor bugs (not booting, stuff crashing left, right and center...), specially at the beginning of merging a nes Android release. rolling back to the last working FW will normally fix that.
Speed is normally faster because it has less bloatware.
5. Is there a "Tweak store" of sorts to download all the extra stuff after rooting the device, similar to "Cydia" for iDevices?
No. You have t find it yourself and sideloas the *.apk. Be careful with what you install. Stuff on the forum should be fine, because other able coders quite quickly raise awareness if something's not right. For Xposed there is a dedicated repo which you can access from the module itself.
there are so many versions of Android and rooting tools for individual devices!
This is the reason why there are device specific forums. Stay here for everything device-related. There are special forums for non-device-specific stuff as apps and certain tweaks.
I hope this celaned up some questions, if you still have some: read, read, read! learn, and do not be hasty in the beginning. Or just ask me...

I don't see where CM is "obviously" better, stock ROMs lack functions but a rooted stock with Xposed is pretty close to some third party ROMs. As Coirpre already said, that's a matter of personal preferences. And CM is far from being more stable than any stock ROM. E.g., last time I tried CM and all ROMs based on it completely prevented using encryption because the sensors didn't work. Tethering's also still broken iirc, among several other things judging by the corresponding thread.

Hi,
camera aside, cm is great. It has lots of customization options and as long as you don't use your phone as MAIN camera device this is the rom for you. However, if you use this 20mpix beast then don't bother with CM. The second someone manages to port stock camera or implement camera as good as stock, cm will win most of users. Again, final decision is up to the user.

What was your solution?
I am also looking for a car based rom but don't want to pay to get timur's

I bought into the timurs but when I tried to go back to stock - I cleared the rom and wiped the tablet to go to stock- I wiped everything and bricked the tablet. My computer didnt recognize the tablet in bootloader or twrp mode...Oh well. I am waiting for my other tablet to arrive to see if I can finally do it. As far as the question"...to timur or not to timur?" I couldn't tell you but the biggest complaint that I see while using the experimentalx is the recognition of the dac Which in my application makes the world of difference since everything is going to go through the dac - as far as audio. Another cool feature is its ability to recognize the reverse input through my camera. It switches to your backup camera app once the kernel detects power on the camera. Again, I have yet to test ANY of it out. Sorry I couldnt help anymore. it really all depends on what features you are looking for. Just as a comparision, I am gonna run the following: dac, 2 hubs, fm, back up cam, extra usb extension, flash drive for music, flash drive for video, and mic. Still trying to see if I can find a usb fan that is controllable via an app If it plugged into one of the hubs. Good luck...let me know what works for you.

Let's hope someone could share the Timur Kernel.
He said with his words that it is completely legit to share his source and kernel. He was just not willing to do it.
As the nexus is getting old. People who would like to donate has already done.
BTW, can you please share if you can get OTG & Charge to work together under elementalX without having to re-plug the mini-usb everytime?
Thanks.
