[Q] Support "floating charger" for AOKP 4.4.3 Dev - Sony Xperia M

Hello,
I'm a new member and I have a Xperia M C1905. I tried posting this in the "correct" thread but since I have less than 10 posts
I can't post it in (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2762698)..
Anyway, first a bit of background: I found a Qi Charging adapter for my Xperia M and I want to use it.
However, this cheap adapter doesn't have a resistor between the D+ and D- of the USB otg port
(in fact both D+ and D- are not connected, or FLOATING). The msm_otg refuses to detect the charger
and the battery will go flat, even if it's connected and setup properly (on top of a qi charger).
Luckily, there seems to be a possible solution for this already.
dubidu has already figured out how to enable
"floating charger" with the Moto G.
His tool works by setting a module parameter "floating_charger" to Y for the msm_otg module.
So in theory all we need is to update the msm_otg module with the following patches:
usb: msm_otg: add charger detection for floated D+ and D-
USB: msm_otg: Fix a bug in charger detection procedure
(In fact, it would be a good idea to update msm_otg with all the extra patches, these can be found here: android.googlesource.com. Unfortunately, I don't know the base kernel so I can't make the diff myself - If someone could point me to a github repository, I can make a "pull request" there).
With this patches, the motofloatingcharger app should work and AOKP - yet again - could provide additional goodies for people who flash custom roms .
So, my question: can someone please help me to contact the devs, so they can apply the patches?
Regards,
Chr

I think @hashroot or @FrOz3n should be able to implement it to the kernel and then you can test

I could test it myself, but I'm unable to find the local manifest for aokp which they are using for the xperia m.
I would be grateful if anyone could point me to it. (I've some experience with android-x86 builds, so this should
be doable).
Regards,
Chr

Update:
I've been able to get it working!
I found a usable local_manifest [0] and build cm-11.0 with a patched kernel for my Xperia M and flashed it.
The device is now "charging" wirelessly as I write this (damn... I would love to make a video too, but I can't
since I don't have enough posts yet. Oh well!)
Anyway, for anyone interested: I made a branch for the android_kernel_sony_msm8x27 and
issued a Pull Request [2] for the freexperia project. This way, it will be picked up by the
cm-11.0 or aokp project automatically. hopefully: all future version will come with it.
Oh: and here's the pull request: (as it contains a bit of additional information too).
I got a Xperia M C1905 a few days ago and I've been trying to add support
for the Qi charger adapter (They are called M3-Y05, but I guess any will
do) that I bought as well [0]. The main difficulty is that the QI charger adapter
connects to the usb-otg port and (because it was cheap), it doesn't have
an 200 ohms resistor between to the D+ and D- lines. Hence, the "stock"
firmware (and cm 11.0) doesn't detect the charger and the phone won't charge.
However, while browsing for a possible solution, I came across a mod for
the MOTO G [1]. The op has the same qi charger adapter hardware and
the same issue. However, he discovered that for his kernel, there's an
option to enable a "floating charger" support. So, I tracked down the
necessary changes and applied them on my own kernel... and lo and
behold: It's working!
I've already tested if these changes affect other usb-otg functions like:
charging via sony's original charger
connecting a peripheral device (in this case usb mouse)
connecting to a PC (mtp and charge) And it passed all tests so far with flying colors!
Please consider this feature branch for merging. If you have comments or
requests please let me know!

This is the same plain CM11 with QI Charger Support.
@xdachr Compiled a 4.4 Kernel Yesterday I might release it soon
By the way instead of uploading the whole zip you could post a separate boot.img from the build I think 4.4 Boot.img's are universal I installed AOKP Boot.img on CM11 once just out of curiosity :silly:

That's indeed a serious problem. I've seen a grand total of three very pricy QI
charger pads on Amazon India. And not a single one of the qi charger receivers .
Furthermore, the situation isn't much better on Ebay, either?! Many sellers there
just won't deliver it to India, even when they say: world-wide delivery?!
(I wonder how this stuff is sold in India, can you tell me how you get your mobile phones?)

Thanks for this. I wasn't aware thus could be modified in software, and so soldered a short. It sticks out though, so this is much appreciated. Hopefully, it'll be integrated into fxp!

FYI: Ron Gokhale has merged the changes into the official freexperia:cm-11.0 repository :victory:.
So all future ROMs will support floating charger without any additional modifications or tools
(it's enabled by default - as per battery charger spec 1.2).
Thanks everyone who contributed :highfive:.

USB OTG cable working in my SGSII [Video proof!]

Hi everyone, quick word to all that these are working with the SGSII. No need to wait until Samsung release them in 1-2 months, and at 6x the price!
Clove Blog will have my video proof up in a couple of hours.
Only enough power to supply pendrives, but drives with their own power supplies, or drives connected to the phone via an externally powered HUB, will work.
Read speeds are fast enough to watch 1080p content.
Unfortunately USB keyboard/mouse, and two different USB gamepads were a fail.
If only I knew a place I could post this where there might be devs around who could read it and make USB gamepad support happen...

Thanks mate, just bought it...
No worries!
Did you see the official ones are priced to sell at like 12pounds!
can it work with a memory card reader?
If the card reader doesn't draw too much power. I tried with one and it didn't work, but if I plug it into my externally powered USB hub then it works fine.
Updated first post with the requisite video proof.
Do you have a link for that dell keyboard & mouse you used in the video?.. it looks great
The Dell Mouse is freely available, I got mine for a song on Ebay.
The keyboard is awesome, but sadly no longer made. Its a Dell-branded 'iGo Stowaway Ultraslim" keyboard, has a truly great hinge mechanism and folds down to next to nothing. You may be able to find it somewhere, but last time I checked I couldn't find any. There are lots of cheap HID profile BT keyboards out there, check my thread in the Galaxy S forums - lots of people confirmed various ones working.
Amazing! excellent video and info
it was nice to also demo the BT keyboard & mouse
thanks
OP, thank you!
Are you rooted? Anything special needed to do the bluetooth? Anything special other than the adapter cable needed for the USB memory stick?
@OP = great post and very informative video

Yep, its Rooted, but that was only for app restoration. There are no mods or hacks applied, everything you're seeing is stock functionality.

or desire ;p
I don't think either the Desire or the Galaxy S will do USB OTG (although the Desire may have it baked into a custom ROM, because I know it was enabled in the Nexus 1 with a mod, I don't know enough about Desire custom ROMs to know).
The original Galaxy S does support bluetooth keyboard and mouse though (I have a demo of that in my youtube channel also).
Quick ?
Can you use the BT keyboard without the virtual one popping up?
Hope they release the USB on the go cable ASAP!!!. Thank you very much for the video, it made me get more ansious to get one of this cables and be able to connect my external hard drive full of MKV files.

KF USB question

So I am curious if anyone knows if this is possible or if one is even available. I am wondering if their is a memory card reader that you can connect to the micro USB port on he Kindle Fire and be able to transfer lets say pictures o your Kindle Fire?
The reason I ask this is I go hunting and we got a new Field Camera and I would like to be able to take the memory card out of the field camera and copy the pictures to my Kindle Fire to view.
Thank you in advance

Haha. Yes, he did a great job.
The answer, not currently. What you are describing is your kindle acting as usb host. For an accessory to be host, it has to impliment a Protocol called usb on the go or usb otg. It appears as if our hardware supports this, but no guarantees yet. A few have tried to enable this on their custom kernels, but no one has succeeded yet. I hope this more properly answers your question. If someone successfully enables usb otg what you suggested could, ane would likely, be possible.
Android also announced a new standard call Android Open Accessory last year, but I haven't found any products making use of it aside from development boards. Here's the introductory paragraph from developers.android.com USB accessory page:
USB accessory mode allows users to connect USB host hardware specifically designed for Android-powered devices. The accessories must adhere to the Android accessory protocol outlined in the Android Accessory Development Kit documentation. This allows Android-powered devices that cannot act as a USB host to still interact with USB hardware. When an Android-powered device is in USB accessory mode, the attached Android USB accessory acts as the host, provides power to the USB bus, and enumerates connected devices. Android 3.1 (API level 12) supports USB accessory mode and the feature is also backported to Android 2.3.4 (API level 10) to enable support for a broader range of devices.
So if all else fails, I'd still expect to see some devices using AOA hit the market in the not-too-distant future. A keyboard with a sd card slot and a couple usb ports on it would be pretty awesome

I'm running the 2/24 build and looked around to see where it might be mounting a storage device, but I don't see it. For example, USB OTG is enabled on my Galaxy S2 and mounts storage devices on /sdcard/usbStorage. I've even tried creating that mount point on the Kindle Fire, but nothing happens. Do you have any more details?

No harm no foul. I thought I missed something or you had some insider knowledge that would let me test it for myself. Maybe just a little wishful thinking on both of our parts. In any case, it will be a great feature addition to the Kindle Fire if/when it becomes available.

yeah, ive been waiting for this for a while, given our limited storage capacity, usb host would be useful.
I second that. It would be nice to be able to use micro usb accessories but luckily they are working on making this a reality with the CM9 port for KF

Multitasking/RAM

You're busy and don't have time to wait, which is why you need to stop reading this thread and get back to organizing your Pogs. Rate this thread to express how the Nextbit Robin performs when multitasking. A higher rating indicates that the Nextbit Robin keeps many apps in memory so that they don't need to reload, and that when moving between apps, transitions are smooth and performance is excellent.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Pretty good multitasking speed actually. That extra GB of RAM really sets it apart from 2GB phones like the 5/5x

I'm honestly not sure as I got a Robin just today (it's a great deal!), but from what I see, it used to be fairly active, but is slowly dieing. There's more and more "unofficial" ports, threads seem to be quieting down a bit, slower developments...
But then again, like I said, I'm new here, and this is just what I noticed in my brief time here.

can you advises me any quick charger for my Nextebit Robin , the official one is unavailable so , can you tell me if they are any replacement charger(type C because I'm in the European Union)?? , And what charger are you using usually ??

Well, if you buy the Nextbit Robin, it comes with a USB Type-C cable, all you need is a power brick to plug into the wall. I'm just using the one I got from my old phone. Honestly I don't know how wall charging would work in the EU since I've never traveled outside the US.
Edit: As long as the charger you buy is a Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 or greater charger it will Quick Charge. Just be sure it's a certified one since there are dozens of knock offs.
Also, this will most likely not be a problem, but make sure you don't get one that uses a different Quick Charge technology like OnePlus's Dash charger.

I mean just look at the android/original android development sections they're full of recent ROMs. Development hasn't ever been this fast for the device. So to answer your question, yes it is active.

Actually, that one's perfect. Aukey is a reputable brand and their Chargers are amazing. The one you chose will definitely Quick Charge the Nextbit Robin at the maximum speed.
Also, don't forget, Quick Charge 2.0 is backwards compatible with the original QC and regular Chargers so you can charge any phone with that charger.

I mean just look at the android/original android development sections they're full of recent ROMs. Development hasn't ever been this fast for the device. So to answer your question, yes it is active.

Really? Hmm... Well I guess I'm a bit biased since I'm coming from a Nexus...

Actually, that one's perfect. Aukey is a reputable brand and their Chargers are amazing. The one you chose will definitely Quick Charge the Nextbit Robin at the maximum speed.
Also, don't forget, Quick Charge 2.0 is backwards compatible with the original QC and regular Chargers so you can charge any phone with that charger.

I've just buy my Nextebit Robin but I've read that Next support stop in February 2018 , is the warranty voided passed this date (because in EU there is a rule that obliges the seller to guarantee what he sells for 1 year)

Technically, yes, but considering in the EU you have laws that specifically grant a longer Warrenty to the buyer, I don't think it applies in that case.
There really should be something like this in the US.

Htc M8 Windows 10 mobile Continuum cabs? (Spoofed 930, on build 14393.448)

Could anyone help me gather the necessary continuum cabs for my device to push with IUtool?

that's the link for the docking cab of build 14393.448:

that does not mean it will work. i never tried this because i am sure it won't work.
afaik it's a hardware limitation of micro-usb and usb-c (3.0) is needed for it to work.
the snapdragon 801 supports usb 3.0 already but that doesn't help in that case.

Thank you sir! Just Updated smoothly! I've got the docking brick available to me to use tomorrow so I'll check it out and let you all know how it goes. I'm sure you're right about the hardware limitation but lately I've been really interested on how these updates and spoofing work so well. The jump from 8.1 to 10 especially... In my way to put it, it's almost as if it doesn't flash on pre determined partition tables/device specs and more so to do with the registry and building the jump off of what is currently available in the registry.. Neat stuff! Although these are my assumptions. If anyone knows what actually goes on during the update process feel free to school me
I was curious to see how the docking experiment went...

Would a OnePlus 3 USB Type-C OTG adapter work for OnePlus 2?

Been trying to get the damn OTG thing to work, but no luck. After a lot of searching around XDA forums, among other places, came to the realisation that only the official OnePlus MicroUSB to Type-C adapter supports OTG. Too bad they don't sell them anymore and I can't find any elsewhere online.
They do sell a newer version for the OP3 on their online store and I was wondering if that would work too. I ask because I've already got a thousand cables and adapters I've tried that didn't work, so I don't wanna drop any more cash on this.
Tried to contact OP support and they didn't really seem to understand what I wanted and just said it would work "because it's USB Type-C". Yeah, so were all the other damn cables I bought.
TL;DR: Would a OnePlus 3 USB Type-C OTG adapter work for OnePlus 2?
UPDATE: Original Xiaomi USB Type-C to Micro USB Adapter works.

Hi!
My bro had a 1+2, he bought an USB cable Type-C OTH from OnePlus store... he had tried to connect an USB several times, but it doesn't work :'(
OK awesome, so basically stay the f*** away from OP in the future is the lesson here.
Hi there, in my fourth purchase of OTG have purchased a fully compatabile one for my OP2. I am finally able to connect with out any issues. I have purchased it from Indian ebay for ₹68/- only. But works like a champ. The model or company name is MX in caps written on the OTG which is black in colour.
usb otg
When i bought my OnePlus 2 i purchased the microusb otg cable and the microusb to type c adapter and have no issues with it working. it could be a a possible compatibility issue or maybe the rom you're on doesn't support otg.
Hello. I'm from India too. I'm not finding any product branded as MX. I would really appreciate if you can share the link form where you bought it.
Thanks in advance

Thanks, ordered! will report back
Works like a charm! I believe you should create a special thread for this cause i believe, there are many people in India who would like to have a fully functional Converter at such a cheap price. Thanks a lot. you just made my Device complete buy giving it OTG Support

Tried and worked on LineageOS 14.1, Stock OOS , and MIUI
Little update, in case anyone else is looking for OTG support the Original Xiaomi USB Type-C to Micro USB Adapter works. They're a *bleep* to find in Europe, but you can get them on tinydeal (ships from China)
https://www.tinydeal.com/original-xiaomi-usb-type-to-micro-usb-adapter-p-156512.html
Came to the UK in less than 2 weeks with the cheapest shipping option (also free shipping available, but would've taken more than 2 weeks).
Thanksyou for letting me know. I am Happy that it is worked for you.
No

I have it, it works, but it is only more annoying since that part is large and straight under the phone
..
I use this with no issue as I can use any MicroUSB otg adapters with it and can charge the phone via MicroUSB cables in a pinch
