I have a Verizon USB LTE Dongle U620L that I would like to use with the Pixel C. I have successfully. used it in the past on a Chromebook by add a custom udev rule in the /etc/udev/rules.d directory. I believe this should work on the Pixel C but can't figure out on how to make the filesystem writeable to add this directory and the rule file needed. Can anyone help? I would like to avoid rooting if possible so that I can still receive updates.

I don't think this can be gotten to work without a custom kernel; I can see if I can enable relevant kernel config options for xceed (and also, there is no udev on the Pixel C, so those udev entries can't help there).

Also, I meant to ask previously, is there a way for me to run dmesg -wH or the equivalent to see what messages Android is generating when I plug in the USB device? It seems to recognize it when I plug it in via a USB to USB-c adapter since the light on it changes as I would expect it to.

Does the Pixel C have the usb_modeswitch command. That could be an alternate method.

OK, great!
I'll check the kernel for the right drivers, and then I'll modify the init.rc files so that the dongle should be recognized, and make a new post with the kernel image.
But from there on it'd be up to you to test it. You don't really need to root the device, but without the modified kernel it's rather unlikely that this is going to work. Maybe with some app, but I guarantee that it will require root.

The dongle is already being recognized. It shows up when I use the lsusb command. The problem is there needs to be a method of doing the mode switch.

XDA custom ROM devs,
While I have yet to root my new Galaxy Nexus, I, as many other folks I presume, am extremely unnerved with lack of MSC mode. both MTP and PTP are bad, for a variety of technical reasons, but the implementation by Sammy/Google on this device make it even worse.
I run Linux as my primary desktop/laptop OS, and I have another Win7 laptop, and the experience has been awful on all three systems. I ended up using doubleTwist AirSync and AirDroid for my music/files management, but that is not I expect to be able to use the device.
Anyhow, long intro aside..
I have a proposal for reimplementing MSC on this device, and will probably do it once I root my device, but thought to kick it around here and see if anyone's interested.
Add the ability to create an ext4 image with 4/8Gb size, and mount it to /sdcard.
Sure, once rooting and changing ROM, it is possible just to make a secondary partition, but I believe doing the above gives more choice (in case you like have a flattened large partition, without MSC support), and would support a variable size more easily.
There is still a question if the device would automatically adjust to have a "partition" to mount/unmount, exposing MSC mode, or if it will behave like it does with external storage.
Any takers? Any reason you deem this not to work?
@tsella
Can't see why it wouldn't work.
Might be more effective to see if you can get the contents of /data/media shared using CIFS or NFS. That would probably be about the same effort, but you'd still retain the flexibility which exists today.
Or maybe get MTPFS working.
Well, this is the best solution I have ever tried, when it comes to moving files between devices.
It's fast, I don't have to wait for mounting/unmounting, and no need to eject the device.
i stil cant see whats so awful as how it go's now without masstorage.
i dont have any issues at all

It seems gmtp works fine with Verizon phones, not GSM version. I have been through gmtp, mtpfs, built my own libmtp - does not work for me.
On Windows, copying a large amount of files usually stops at some point and needs to be retried.

There are certain instances where you will run into issues. For example, a vast majority of 3rd party car stereos with USB ports only support mass storage mode. There are very, very few that support any other formats, including MTS. I can't listen to music off my Nexus with my car stereo and charge it all with one cable -- I have to bust out the auxiliary cable as well, which just gets messy.
EDIT: sorry for the jittery video new one on its way! and added another link just to amuse you
hey guys!
today i was really curious as to how i could get a webcam to fully function, and to maybe permanently use one as a web cam. after hours of surfing, i found that their is a way to preview, but not to actually use one. so i wanted to fix this problem!
after hours of research, and a bit of testing, and have finally reached some success!
found a thread in the viewsonic g tablet section, that managed to do about the the same. since they were both tegra based, with similar enough soc's , i decided to experiment. with stock kernel and firmwares, the nexus 7 has drivers for plug and play webcams. what this mod does is gives permissions and makes the webcam show up as a rear camera feed. WITH THIS MOD ACTIVE YOU CANNOT USE YOUR FRONT CAM.
it was made for the g tab. if modifications are made, we may be able to bring it back.
WARNING: as usual, i am not responsible for any mishaps that may happen by you doing this mod, including nuclear monkeys taking over the world.
i am coating the writer at the g tab thread for the credits on who originaly made the base for this mod for the gtab : "Credit BELONGS to Borkata at "another site""
so first, u will need:
1. a UVC webcam. or simply, a plug and play camera. anything that didnt need anything extra to work, other than you plugging it in. some only need the extra cd to use its full potential, but may work without one. check here: http://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/#devices
95% of webcams should work.
2. the attached file. (camera.tegra3.so)
3. nexus 7
4.OTG CABLE!
5.a camera app other than stock. (lgcamera or similar)
STEPS!
EXTRACT and COPY the camera.tegra3.so FILE INTO your tablet's /SYSTEM/LIB/HW folder, and reboot. BACK UP THE ORIGINAL camera.tegra3.so if u want to revert later.
plug in your camera.
open up terminal emulator. run this:
su
chown system.camera /dev/video0
chmod 660 /dev/video0
now go to your camera app and check it out!
taking pics works fine. video has bad fps though. response is a bit slow too. but i think these are software issues.
you will need to put those lines in the terminal everytime you plug in the camera. (or make some kind of a script, or ask someone to)
i am not improving this mod simply because i dont have the experience to. but i did want to share this with you.
here is a little demo i uploaded of it so u guys can get an idea of it-

Could mean a few things. Either USB otg not working, or the tablet doesn't recognize the web cam as a webcam because it doesn't support plug and play, or incompatible ROM or kernel. Most probably the webcam's fault.

Bet you'll be heavily contributing to the FTV(S) sceen. Welcome aboard.
After your done playing with the Spectrum App. If you get bored or have some time. Maybe you can take a look at the ATT UVerse apps (FireTV & PlayStore) to see if they can be modded. Specially to bypass the root check.
I can quickly test any mod you send/post. PM me any time.
Here are some mods that might help on Spectrum & other apps too:

Thank you my friend! With TWC switching to Spectrum, am losing channels left and right, and now a set top box is needed on every TV.. No thanks, I was happy with my 2-71 channels with just a direct cable, so the FireStick was something I wanted anyway, so I decided to pull the trigger on it, to quickly find out the app is supported :silly::laugh:
Hopefully myself or someone else can get this sorted out as it's a great MOD that was created and I hope I can revive it. There is so much info though, and just making the ones today took hours, but the confusion is that I am making literally the same edits as the app that is linked here into the new app but yet it just isn't taking, so maybe some new checks are in place, but I couldn't find them. But with a device for myself to test will save some good time, and it's always a good learning experience.
I know how it goes. To me the process or learning experience can be even more fun or rewarding then even a positive outcome. Gotta enjoy the road. Not just the destination. I've been in the FTV(S) sceen for over two years. And it's been a blast. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have. As much fun as it's been. This relatively cheap devices really solved a ton of content access problems too.
Aanyone have news of this system?
I want try to root for active some function like play video on auto movements. The video in fact actually autostop when auto is not stop.

Hello guys,
If this Mbux system is the new head unit on the A-Class I can confirm from an inside source that it is Linux indeed.
I cannot say much more since I am not directly involved.
As to eSIM, it most probably have such a thing. At least the previous systems (like the one installed on the E-class) have an eSIM. So I see to reason why this one shouldn't have one too.
All the best!

Anyone have any knowledge of hacking this system yet? Furthermore anyone know where the SIM card slot is for these cars? Or is it an E-Sim?

It an esim like Opel
Anyway to see the e-sim id? Currently in Canada and it appears Mercedes has a deal with AT&T but pricing for Canadian users is ridiculous.
