USB GPS Receiver capable?

Hey guys...
After reading the last wm6 vanilla thread, i can imagine how annoying i was w/ the wm6 black 2.0 release b*ing and whining about how i coudln't my wireless to work...
anyways, i'll try to cut the stupidity posts to a minimum but in the meantime maybe someone has tried using a usb gps receiver on their phone.
i'm trying to configure ports and stuff via usb, but not too sure what baud rate, which com port etc to set everything at for maximum usage... in fact i don't even know if the darn thing works with my phone either
about to reinstall googlemaps to see if the usb will work....
i know everyone is using bluetooth, but i had this garmin usb 18 laying around for my laptop and bought a usb --> mini usb adapter and thought i'd try it
if anyone has tried, please help me out... thanks
wrong forum
Not a stupid question, a stupid place to ask it. Try here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=307
you can't connect a USB GPS to the phone.
the USB GPSs require a server side USB port, the phone is only a client USB port. Hence, you can't connect peripherals to it such as GPSs, printers etc...
Bluetooth GPS units work very well with the Hermes though!?

Read USB Key with TP2/Tilt2?

Hi All,
Not likely I'm sure, but does anyone know if it is possible to ready a USB key or Flash Drive with the Tilt2? I have a USB-A to Mini-B Cable, so I tried a bunch of USB key's but no joy. I tried using the ExtUSB port on the phone itself and also tried using the USB/Headphone adapter that came with the phone, but no joy.
Anone know of a way/hack/software that would enable this?
Cheers & Thanks.
P.S. - I did a search for this but came up empty-handed...
Uh, pretty sure you can't do it. The USB port on the TP2 has no power to send to the USB thumb thingy.

Xperia Arc HDMI tricks.

I've recently bought Xperia's HDMI cable. It works fine on TV but I wonder if it's possible to connect it to PC, to Video Cards HDMI, I have one. But when I connect nothing happens. If anyone knows how to use Phone as monitor via HDMI or to view phone on PC monitor via HDMI please help. Thanks in advance
You wanna use your computer as an external screen for your phone(just like tv)? The possible HDMI port in your computer is HDMI-out, and you cannot use it as HDMI-in. You will need some kind of a usb adapter for it.
And if your monitor(you have a desktop pc?) has an HDMI port, it would be an HDMI-in port. Try plugging your phone into your monitor?
it should work probably... don't know if the graphic card or the monitor will be propertly shown on phone due to resolution issues...
Thanks everyone, yea my video has hdmi out only, but i thought i could use it as hdmi in. anyway thanks for help, if u know any 3rd party software to solve my problem, please advice. Thanks for now

OTG cable not connecting with USB drive

I have a Chinese phone and a Chinese OTG cable. On insertion of OTG cable the phone volume status bar appears, reducing volume to minimun and leaving to rest for a period removes the status bar. OTG Troubleshooter reports positive USB host support but negative on all three subsequent tests. I am now concerned that the cable is faulty. I am unaware of the technical limitations and because of this I need advice whether an OTG cable should provide the same connectivity with a PC as a standard USB cable. This one connects with my PC with no problem!!
Any help greatly appreciated.

Are you sure your phone support OTG usb? Not all of them do. Regarding using OTG cable with PC, I'm not sure it will work. OTG cable has a few pins shorted together to initiate "host" mode on your phone so you can connect peripheral devices (like mouse, keyboard, usb stick, drive, etc.). By default, PC is already setup as "host" to act in that mode.
some Chinese phone does not support OTG, what brand of phone do you use?

My original post stated that the OSG Host had been confirmed as present and my query was whether an OSG cable would permit connection with a PC because mine will connect. This makes me think that the cable is incorrectly configured (or in other words NOT an OSG cable). Your reply stated that you were not sure, or in other words my query was not answered. I guess I'll just return it as faulty.

Is it possible to connect a USB audio DAC?
Thanks
I've tried with a OTG Y Cable and the f4ktion kernel but no, no support. Device doesn't detect the DAC
A HID-compliant USB keyboard and mouse worked though
Thanks for your findings.
Cheers
