Hi,
I've been wanting to hook up my desire hd to usb hosting and have not been able to find a cable for it.
I was wondering would it be ok if i connected a micro usb (male) to usb b (printer version) (female) adapter
to a,
standard printer cable with usb female at the end?
This would result in one end being a micro usb male and the other end a female usb
I look forward to your answers
Thanks alot for reading
That probably wont work.
I in fact saw an article yesterday, but can't recall the link. (Will look now).
IIRC, you need to modify the USB cable somewhat to get the DHD's USB port to detect an OTG connection.
Edit:
Here we go: http://gigaom.com/mobile/how-to-add-a-usb-keyboard-to-an-android-phone/
I think if the software supports usb host mode, with a 'micro usb type a' to 'usb type b' cable you can connect to a usb device. That is if the DHD is equiped with 'micro usb type ab' receptacle.
oh wow, ok thanks ever so much!!,
however, i just need to confirm what three cables you need so i can go out and buy them, i need:
Car charging cable (which one is this?)
Micro-usb cable (is this with the microusb male on one end and a standard usb male on the other end?)
USB extender cable (is this with one usb male and usb female on the other end?)
thanks

I have no idea really, but if you are successful, let us know
I'm just having trouble understanding what cables are needed.
On the website you gave me, it says i need:
a car charging cable, a micro USB cable and a USB extender cable.
Is this effectively two micro usb cables and a USB extender cable?
or does one HAVE to come from a car charging kit?
please help!!
thanks

Nice find! I did see the mini one only
Gonna order and try it out. No great financial loss if it does not work.
Obviously we will need a USB Host module for the kernel if not already present. Will check tonite.
i've finally made my host cable!!!
i now need micro-usb dongle host module. Is this where you have to get hold of a car charger and get the end of it and unsolder bits?
The USB Host module is software. It is loaded by the Linux kernel.
ok well i need to get that too.
Also, whats the bit with the car charging cable? what that for?
I'd be really interested in this as well. Would be awesome if i could just connect a usb drive or my camera to my phone to copy data.
So does anyone know if a host driver is available for the desire hd.
I really have no idea how it would work, but it should, as loads of tablets are able to use 3G-Sticks to connect.
Today I recieve my USB Host adapter cable for the DHD.
When I plug it into the DHD and connect a USB Hub the car panle ("Auto Bedienfeld") starts.
Connecting a USB Keyboard to the USB Hub doesn't show any impact. But this is what I have expected. Next I try to integrate the patch from sonic74 to a kernel for the DHD.
http://sven.killig.de/android/N1/2.2/usb_host/
At the moment I use Android Revolution HD 2.0.9
Any progress?
I really like the USB host future on my Desire HD,
I want to connect my USB Drive to my DHD if this is possible? So i have 16GB More storage if needed ;D
I've ordered the converter thing from dealextreme, someone that could make a flashable zip to enable usb host functions?
Was also quite interested on this.
My wish is to connect my dSLR to the phone, and move all jpgs/nefs from there to a internal card. Or copy, and use the device for better visualisation.
As the camera has its internal battery, power shouldn't be a issue. It would be awesome
I am still working on this.
At the moment it is working for a short time, but then there a same errores.
This meens it should be possible, but same more research must be done.
My Kernel is based on the BUZZ 1.3.7 Kernel, and following patches:

Quick Q: What did you connect? Or you didn't connect anything ?
According to the specs, the G Pad supports USB 3.0. I assume that this can be used when connecting to a PC that supports USB 3.0. I'm wondering if OTG devices (e.g. external drives) can work at USB 3.0 speeds with the correct OTG cable. Does anybody know?
All it means I believe is that it's USB 3.0 compatible, which every USB 2.0 device is compatible. It does not have a USB 3.0 plug so it can't achieve the same transfer speeds of a USB 3.0 device such as the Note 2?
Since the tablet is physically incapable of accepting the cable USB 3.0 devices, you won't get USB 3.0 speeds from an external device connected via OTG.

I don't follow you. It's the other way around. USB 3.0 devices are compatible with USB 2.0 devices. It doesn't make sense to say that the G Pad is capable of USB 3 unless it can achieve USB 3 speeds. I just don't know in what situations it can use USB 3.
Just looked at LGs web site and the specs say the GPad is USB 2.0 only. It'll work with 3.0 devices just at 2.0 speeds. OTG works, tried with a USB thumb drive.

Yes and no, poor wording, I meant what you're saying :laugh:
But yeah physically impossible for it to support a 3.0 device in 3.0 form without the extra pins that USB 3.0 uses for transfer.
I don't know where I got the idea that the G Pad could support USB 3. Must have been an incorrect spec that I saw somewhere. Looks like you're correct that it doesn't support USB 3.

HTC 10 Cable/charger
Hi guys i read a lot of issues about USB C cables and chargers dangerous for your phone...
What do i have to check before buying a charger or cable to see if its save to use on my htc 10 without messing up the battery.
AFAIK, simply make sure that the cable has a 56k resistor.
Sent from my HTC 10 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Hi.
I ordered this cable http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2015-Latest-1M-USB-3-1-standard-A-to-Type-C-cable-USB-Data-Sync-Charge/32335241897.html
It´s the USB 3.0 to type C. It as the 56k resistor.
Does it matter if the cable is 3.0? Or it´s best to buy the 2.0? Because of the voltage (problems?)...
Thank you.
This is what I use
I use this at home with the quick charge base that came with the phone:
http://www.amazon.com/iOrange-Braid...&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
I use this in the car:
http://www.amazon.com/Nekteck-Braid...&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
And I use the cable that came with the phone at work/carry with me.
All work wonderfully and support quick charge.
No, the cables are not dangerous to your phone... There are no voltage problems...
If you've been reading Benson Leung's reviews of legacy type C products, the big deal is that..
..some of the A to C cables as an example don't follow the Type C specification.
Meaning they're not using a 56kOhm pull up resistor on the CC pin.

What that does is it tells the device (phone) that it is connected to a legacy A port and to draw "default USB power".
If you have a let's say a Nexus 6P and you have a type A-C cable which instead of the 56kOhm resistor has a 10kOhm resistor on the C pin.
The Nexus 6P is going to think that between it and the charger is a C-C cable > connect to 5V 1A charger and the phone is going to try and draw 3A of power even though the charger cannot support it.
If the A-C cable has the 56kOhm resistor instead of the 10kOhm resistor, it is going to tell the device that A-ha! this is a A-C cable which can be plugged into regular USB ports on desktop computers, laptops, car radio, whatever.
Now when you plug the phone in to a 5V 1A charger, it's going to pull 1A of current. Because that's what the charger supports.
If you plug it into a USB 2.0 port, it's going to draw 0.5A of current. Because that's what the port supports.
If you use a "bad cable" with a Nexus 6P which doesn't have the 56kOhm resistor, first and foremost it is going to damage the charger not the phone.
What cable to buy?
If you're looking at A to C or whatever, make sure the seller or manufacturer tells you that it has a 56kOhm resistor.
That means the cable follows the USB Type C specification.
If the seller or manufacturer does not state it has it
OR
If the seller or manufacturer refuses to tell you
OR
If the seller or manufacturer does not know
Don't buy that cable. As simple as that.
There are loads and loads and loads of proper, type A to C cables out there that properly follow the specification.
Buy one of them.
Do I want to buy USB 3.0 A to USB C cable? Does it matter?
For file transfers to computer it does matter.
For charging, NO it does not.
The HTC 10 supports USB 3.1 Gen 1 (=USB 3.0) speeds.
USB 2.0 real life transfer speed is ~30-40MB/s.
USB 3.1 Gen 1 (=USB 3.0) can theoretically do up to 5Gbit/s or 625MB/s.
Now that word theoretically is bolded with a reason. Realistically speaking we're looking at about 500MB/s max.
But again, that's just the maximum of what the USB standard can do.
The HTC 10 storage can read up to ~170MB/s and write up to ~105MB/s.
With the HTC 10 if you go from USB2.0 > 3.0 it means transfer speeds can be up to
~4.2-5.6x faster phone>>PC
~2.6-3.5x faster phone<<PC
^This assumes that your PC storage (SSD or HDD) is fast enough.^
With USB 3.0 cable you also need to go in to Settings > More > USB Connection and enable "Fast File Transfers"
If you want to use Quick Charge, make sure the cable you're buying is not a "charge only" cable.
Before Quick Charge works, there needs to be a digital handshake between the device and charger.
You can check this yourself, use the stock Rapid Charger 3.0 and A-C cable > plug the phone in > phone starts charging pretty much instantaneously BUT the "Quick Charger connected" text does not pop up until a few seconds after.
That was the digital handshake. It needs a couple of seconds "Charge only" cables only have 2x wires inside, they are the power wires going to VCC and GND pins.
"Charge and sync" or your every day, run of the mill, cable has at least 4x wires inside, there's the power wires (VCC, GND pins) and then there's the USB 2.0 data wires (D+, D- pins).
What that means is that the "charge only" cable cannot work with Quick Charge because there are NO DATA WIRES inside the cable.
The digital handshake happens through the data wires.
If you buy a USB cable and it does not say "charge only" then the cable is a REGULAR "charge and sync" cable. eg. what you want.
If the cable is "charge only" it will say so!
IF you wish to not use the Quick Charge feature, then sure, go ahead and knock yourself out.
Use a "charge only" cable if you so wish. Your phone will just charge slower.
@lagittaja
Very detailed and precise information.
Thank you.
I bought a 2.0 type A to C cable from Cable Matters, havent tried it yet though. I hope it works well and does nothing bad on my phone.

AWESOME POST! I bolded the most important part of this.
Odd, I can't get the USB 3.1 Fast file transfers to work. I'm using the stock cable that comes with my HTC 10 with my Win 10 computer (X99-m WS mobo, which has USB 3.1 ports), and I see a message "USB 3.1 unavailable Make sure you're using a USB3.1 cable. The other connected device also needs to support USB3.1." I'm also seeing what seem like USB 2.0 transfer speeds when I transfer a large file from my phone to my desktop.
Anyone have this working? Or can recommend how to get this working?

Hello!
"There are loads and loads and loads of proper, type A to C cables out there that properly follow the specification."
Are there really?
The last days I am searching for one that complies with the following specifications:
- USB A (3.1) to USB C (3.1)
- 56KΩ pull-up resistor
- Qualcomm® Quick Charge™ 3.0
- USB 3.1 speeds (5 Gbps-transfer)
.....with no luck at all! ....unfortunately I end up ordering a wrong cable.
Can somebody share with me the a brand/model of a cable that actually does all the above?
Thanks!!!
Also ordered 2 cables but the app checkR doesn't work with HTC 10. Transfering files didn't seem very quick but it did charge...

If you pull up the Specs + Compatibility on that cable (which is the one they ship with the HTC 10) you will see that it is only a USB 2.0 cable. I am rather disappointed they are doing this, given how feature-laden this phone is supposed to be. That's like shipping a Ferrari with a Yugo transmission.

Yea, I can't believe they did that on a high end phone. Hopefully the cable I chose above will enable true USB 3 file copy speeds, but at the moment my PC doesn't have USB 3.1 capability. Just USB 3.0. However, on the Galaxy S5 I am coming from, which had a micro-USB 3 connection, I did head to head comparison tests for copying SD card content and nandroid backups to my PC, and it was appreciably faster over USB 3.0 than over a USB 2 connection.
And little OT my second dissapointment is using eMMc 5.1 internal memory instead of UFS 2.0. I love the phone but why they made so stupid cutting off specs when the device is expensive enough to not make such a savings.

Unfortunately, the issue in red, above, seems to be the deal breaker. I have this shiny new Belkin genuine USB 3.1 - 10 Gbps certified - cable, but using it on the USB 3.0 port on my PC I cannot enable USB 3.1 file transfer on the HTC 10 under Settings/More/USB. It is grayed out, unless I set USB to be used for "charging". It is odd that undoes being grayed out, because I don't think it can transfer files in USB Charging mode.
So, I am stuck transferring files at USB 2.0 speeds. Apparently they did not allow for the interim USB 3.0 file copy speeds at all. It's either USB 3.1 all the way, or USB 2. That might be why HTC ships the 10 with only USB 2 cables. Perhaps they are assuming most people don't yet have USB 3.1 ports on their PCs yet?

****Nevermind**** BE VERY CAREFUL ORDERING i-Orange CABLES on AMAZON.*******
When you select the USB 3.1 i-orange cable there is a list of color and size options below. All of them but 2 cables are USB 2.0 Type C connectors and not USB 3.1 The usb 3.1 type C cables are only 3.3ft, the longer cable I chose is actually a USB 2.0 Type C cable.
The industry is making type C a nightmare to deal with, there should only be 1 type C to type C cable.

I didn't know about this but today was the first time trying to transfer files from my HTC 10 to my pc through the usb 2.0 port using the official htc cable that came with the phone and it was painfully slow. I have 3.0 ports on the back of my pc but I know it shouldn't be this slow. I'm transfering files to a Samsung 850 EVO SSD. Stuff that should only take 5-10 seconds to transfer takes like 3-5 minutes.
I have fast file transfer working on an A-C USB 3.0 cable (not USB 2.0)
You have to enable "charge mode" then the option is available.
Fast file transfer doesn't work in normal MTP mode.
BTW Monoprice has high quality cables for very inexpensive.

I bought a USB3.1 gen 2 cable from Amazon (support for 5Gbps transfers for the HTC 10, but can also do 10Gbps for future-proofing), and connected it to the USB3.1 port on my motherboard (ASUS x99-m WS), but speeds are still definitely not USB3.1 gen-1 5Gps.
Transfers may be working at USB3.0 speeds (which does ~1-1.25Gbps IIRC?), but transfers are definitely not working at USB3.1 gen-1 5Gbps speeds.
I tested this by transferring a 700MB file from PC to phone internal storage (not SD card), then the same file back to PC, and it transferred slowly.
Transfers were slow even though "Fast file transfer" selected by going to USB charge mode and enabling Fast file transfer.
Does anyone have USB3.1 5Gbps transfers confirmed working? What cable/mobo are you using?
[UPDATED] Moved my comment to a separate thread here.
My computer won't even recognize when I have the phone connected via a usb-c to usb-c cable. Works fine usb-a to usb-c, but not when I go to either of the 2 usb-c ports.
Is there a different driver i need for my computer to recognize the phone on usb-c?
(it's a usb-c to c cable provided with a pixel phone, so should be decent quality)
Hello, I've just purchased HTC 10 from T-mobile in Poland. I installed HTC Sync Manager, but every time I connect the device to usb 3.0 port, my Windows 10 file explorer hangs and I can not use the device (nor can I do it through Sync Manager.) I tried downloading only usb drivers and selecting the option to fix corrupt files, but it didn't help either. Weird thing is, that there is no problem when using usb 2 port. Any ideas on how to fix it?
PS I've never had any problems with using the usb 3.0 port with my LG G3
I had this issue when using None Intel USB 3.0 ports at the front of my PC. Do you have any intel USB 3.0 or USB 3.0 at the back of the PC you could try and see if it works?
According to what I I have read, if you are wanting to activate USB 3 mode in the HTC 10, what they don't tell you is that it is actually USB 3.1, and you must have USB 3.1 ports on your PC to connect to, otherwise it will only connect at USB 2 performance even if you plug it into USB 3 on your PC. You can't enable the USB 3 mode on the HTC 10 unless it senses being connected to a USB 3.1 port. I speculate that is why the cable HTC ships with the HTC 10 is actually a USB 2 cable with a USB C (3.1) connector on it. I was rather disappointed to learn this. I have USB 3 on my PC, but not USB 3.1, so I can't use the USB 3 mode on my HTC 10. My prior Galaxy S5 had a micro USB 3 connector and (before it eventually failed to work) I was able to transfer files an appreciable amount faster via USB 3 between it and my PC.

Exactly as you said, I tried disconnecting usb 3.0 ports at the front (I have zalman z9 u3) and using the ones directly from mobo and it worked. Any idea why is that?

My best guess is front USB ports don't have enough power to push data to the htc 10
Or the front USB ports none Intel are bugged when using this device.
