[Q] USB OTG only for StockROM? - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Hello,
first of all, i'm not good in english, it's not my native language. I hope you guys understand me anyaway.
Since a week now i'm using Cyanogenmod 11 (beta 2 atm) for my Xperia S, included unlocked bootloader and stuff (i did it only because of CM 11).
And i have a USB OTG cable from "Decrescent", the Amazon description says it works with Sony Xperia S ...but nothing!
I tried different USB-Sticks, keyboards, other thinks but nothing works (only the LEDs from some USB-Devices flashing).
I googled about 2-3 hours now, tried different thinks, many playstore apps but ...no, still notghing.
Yesterday i tried it on a Galaxy S3 from a friend, all works, no probs.
EDIT: ow, only a USB-Stick from a friend works, but not more.
Now my question(s): does the kernel for/or CM 11 don't have OTG support? what can i do/try?
I hope, somebody can help and i'm in the right section here to ask thinks like this.

[Q] OTG Problem (Maguro)

Hey guys i got a problem with my OTG and my Maguro.
I'm running CM10.1 16th nightly with Anarkia Purity Kernel v12. When i connect my wireless mouse, that has an usb receptor the phone doesn't recogniced it. The same thing with an 32gb micro sd with a usb microsd reader. I have downloaded ChainFire's app, but i only have solution for the microsd, not for the mouse. Now, the problem is that i want to buy an usb PS joystick. It's wireless like the mouse (has a receptor), and i wish it could work. Anyone has an answer to my problem ? A recommendation of configuration (especific ROM + especific KERNEL) will be also apreciated.
Sorry for my awfull english.
Thanks in advance !
pls !
pls guys i really need your help !
Since you're not using CM stock kernel, talk to your kernel Dev to support your wireless receptor. It's probably missing the module to support it. Check dmesg.

Thanks for your answer, my friend.

Nobody Knows Answer?
oh goosh
Hi, i am going through the same thing too. iv scoured the net for a solution but its looking bleak right now. i found this site which says
"Attention: Android 4.3 has changed the kernel so that loading driver modules is disabled. Nexus 7 Old still has modem drivers enabled in the kernel, but Nexus 7 New (Wifi) and Nexus 10 don't. Since there is no more way to add drivers, USB modems cannot be used with these devices anymore. Blame Google for this."
can someone confirm this or say otherwise. am really bumd that they would leave this feature to use an external modem out. when old nameless tablets can do it. ahhhh

[Q] PA 3.98 - Nexus no longer recognized by Win8

Hi guys!
A small issue with ParanoidAndroid. I installed 3.98 on my new Nexus 7 2013 and since my tablet is no longer recognized by Windows 8.
So I restored my stock backup and it works again. Then, I reinstalled PA 3.98 and it does not work ... I do not understand.
Someone has already encountered this problem?
FYI, I also Note 2 and PA already above 3.98 without problem.
Any idea?
(Sorry bad English, I'm french, and posting here cuz I'can't in the PA thread)
Did you make sure MTP is turned on in settings->storage->3dots->usb computer connection?
Thx!
Hey man !
Really thx !!! Almost 2 years that I installed some ROM (on my GalaxysIII, my Note 2, now my Nexus 2013) and I didn't know that option !
Thx :laugh:

Opel Intellilink and Android Custom ROM's (OmniROM...) - Compability issues?

Hello, i havent found a similiar thread so...
We bought an Opel Adam Rocks (2014) in which there is the really nice Intellilink System. Its said it will connect with all newer Android phones that installed Android Auto, but when i plug it via USB (tried different cables already) it says "Unknown/unsupported device detected".
My phone: Oppo Find 7 is ROOTED, on latest OmniROM which is of course Android 6.XXX + Android Auto App
My question: is it GENERALLY impossible to connect rooted/Custom ROM phones to it? is there anyone that was successful?
Its not a disaster since we didn't see it as important but it surely would be nice!
Thanks.

I have similar problem at the moment with Huawei Mate 9 and intellilink R4.0 (both new). I am waiting for new firmware and will contact Opel dealer for update.
I have read different forums that different firmware on phone acts different as well as software on head unit sometimes makes problems.
Generally I have read that also some custom roms work and some don´t.
Also there have been several updates for the intellilink systems since 2014. This will cost some € at Opel Dealer. It is not for sure this helps! Maybe it is waste of money.
In this case it is google bringing the disaster... The app brings no information what is going wrong...
i'm thinking about an update for the Intellilink, indeed... and... at least its good to hear that custom ROMs CAN work, so there is still chance. thanks for the info!

Question aosp 11 strange behavoir

Hi,
I built and deployed the latest aosp 11 on this device. The phone is on the t-mobile network in USA.
All went ok but if I put the sim in the first slot, everything works except that the mic works ONLY if I am on speakers, cannot talk normally. Note that if I plug a headset, all works normally, but who can always use a headset?
If I put the sim in the second slot, most works including the mic, but sometimes I do not get messages. This is an issue specially when I need to get some token.
Anybody saw something like this?
Note that if I flush the stock Sony rom, there are no issues.
Thanks,
M.
Just an update, a few days back I rebuild aosp 11 and did a clean flash, exactly the same behavior.
If anyone do see this behavior and have a solution, please post it here.
Best, M
If anyone updated the OS to aosp 12 (or 13) please post your results here. I still have the issue shown in this thread.
Note that all seems ok with the stock android, it is only with the aosp 11 (the one I tried).
Me again and more on the saga of installing aosp on xperia 10 III. Since now I got a new daily driver (pixel 7 on which I installed grapheneos), I was able to test a bit more on 10 |||. I tried installing aosp 12. It worked and it booted, it looked ok. However after a reboot, it no longer sees the slots and the sim cards. I tried booting a few times, the same thing.
What is sad is that this exact behavior was on aosp 11 long time ago but was eventually fixed.
I am really disappointed by the very low quality of the sony aosp. They claim that they support it but when you install the aosp provided by them, it really does not work for the most basic things...
The hope to use this great device is when someone like Lineageos will release a version of their os for 10 3...
Q: what test is really done by Sony when releasing the aosp for a device, when something that simple does not work reliably?
Thanks,
M.
Just to complete my tests, I did install aosp 13 on the device. The installation worked but as with aosp 12, it did not detect any slots or sims. Reinstalled 11 and it does work but with the issues in this thread and another one from me.
I hope that someone from Sony will fix the issues otherwise why even say that they support aosp?
Thanks,
M.
