I doubt the stock kernel does, although I haven't tried it. Test it out and let us know?
If not, I'd think a kernel dev could get it configured in their kernel!
Any updates on this? I would like to know if this works too!
I just ordered this tonight:

When I get it, I'll test it out myself.

Huh.... I already have all the stuff to try it, will give it a shot tonight when i get home from work, and 2.99 although thats only 3bucks I know, but for 4.99 I got like a 10 piece usb accessory kit, included a bunch of lil stuff like that.... Just seems a bit expensive is all... It's only 3 bucks tho LOL
I'll post results of my experiment tonight stay tuned

I think the real question is whether or not the hardware supports it. I've done a bunch of research into USB devices, and USB slave hardware is not the same as USB host hardware. Some controllers can do both, and if our phones have capable hardware, I highly doubt it's enabled in the stock kernel. It would be easy enough to figure out if someone knows what kind of USB controller is in the 3D.

Where did you get the 10pc set?
Let us know if it works. Would be awesome if it did!
There's lots of these on Ebay for the Galaxy S 2, just search: USB OTG Host cable adaptor Samsung Galaxy S2 SII
Would be awesome if we could get something like this working!

Doubt it is bricked. Maybe hardware dead, but not bricked.
Unless he tested something for you that you were not willing to test.

Nice. Please do. Then we can finally settle what chip is running and if there is FM hardware or not. Hope you have a nice camera! I want HUGE and close pics
BTW, what you think the odds are the usb doubles as jtag? Briefly going through all the code, I could have sworn I saw stuff related to ttyS0, baud rates and all. Maybe just need the right pinout.

Would be interesting. Im going to take the pics as soon as i can. its weekend. prob monday or tuesday.
if you think it works as TTY. Its possible. I dont see any pins on the boards. Thats why i asked.
JTAG and serial console are different things. jtag won't show in the kernel, it is a physical set of pins for direct access to the cpu and/or flash.
The serial console might be available via usb (eg on the g1 it is, with a custom cable) but it is only helpful for kernel debugging - if a kernel is broken, but not too broken, you can get logs out of it while it starts up..
Ok. I made an attempt at taking the pics. This is my first time to do macro shots
If anyone can give me suggestions to make better. Let me know.

Indeed. But seeing the tty stuff in the kernel just made me think that if the usb can double as a serial port, it might also double (triple?) as an easy to reach jtag port. Then again, I dunno how many cables a jtag needs. iirc, microusb has 5.

Short answer, charging/HDMI spots are in different positions so it wouldnt fit.
yea i noticed the hdmi and micro ports switched.....which really pissed me off that moto would do that, but im suspecting they will put out a lapdock for the photon specifically.

IMO, Motorola is stepping on their own foot. Had they not switched port positions, the Atrix lap dock could have been a huge selling item for the Photon or any other Moto phone which supports it. Why keep investing MORE money for additional docks when this one alone could have raked in a lot of cash.
I'm going to test something that might just work.
We might be able to MacGyver the Atrix LapDock for use with our Photons. Using Micro USB and HDMI Extender cables.
It's not elegant, by any stretch...but would be an easy workaround.
I wouldn't be adverse to having my Photon attached to the LapDock via cables, instead of docked.
If anyone beats me to testing this out, please report your findings.
Apparently at&t has exclusive rights to the laptop dock (using with the atrix) for a period of time. Not sure how long.

Nope...haven't found THAT yet. Maybe they don't make the HDMI one?
Right now it looks like a tangled mess of adapters to make this work.
There is this adapter micro f to hdmi male:

Then you need an hdmi f to f like this:
http://www.usbsea.com/products/HDMI_Female_to_HDMI_Female_Adapter_R-AD-HFHF.html
Then you can use your micro to regular hdmi cable.
I'm still looking for a micro hdmi f to micro hdmi m which would be perfect.

It's really frustrating that Sprint and Motorola are so far behind on the laptop dock for this phone. I really want this dock so that I can use it for work when I am on call, and not have to lug around a laptop and wait for it to boot up, connect to my hotspot etc. C'mon Sprint, C'mon Motorola! All they need to do is build two parts, a longer cable for the HDMI/USB ports, and a new baseplate for the phone to sit on, this should be nothing to kick those out, since obviously aside from the ports being swapped, it still works on this phone.

Nothing has been confirmed that we will get USB Host support after ICS. But that would be the adapter that would do if it is going to work. However, I would highly recommend getting an adapter cable, and not just an adapter. That adapter will put a LOT of stress of your usb port and will end up breaking it sooner or later. Get a cable ( say 6 inches or 1 foot) with the same ends, it keeps the stress off the port.
Thanks for the reply..... Monoprice is not available in india , so ordering from them will end up paying taxes...

Ah damn it... Any other way I can hook them up to my phone?

That's only for dock sound. DAC's don't work. Someone started a thread in general maybe 6 weeks ago asking for a dev to try & get it working and people pledged money if this happened. Got maybe 6-8 people interested, haven't heard any more about it.
We'd need a dev who wants this feature for their own use for it to become reality I reckon. Codeworkx has been asked & said it's too hard (blame Samsung)/he's not interested.

Hello everyone. I have gone as far as I can go by myself, and I am looking for a little help to see if together we can get this working.
I have a Lilliput 669GL-70NP/C/T 7" touch screen that I want to try and get working over USB host. So far, all my attempts have been fruitless, but I think that it is possible. The touchscreen utilizes an eGalax driver to work, and I see from their web site here:
http://home.eeti.com.tw/web20/eGalaxTouchDriver/linuxDriver.htm
that they have created a linux driver for ARM devices. Based on what I have been able to determine, this means that I should be able to load the driver on android, but this is where I start getting in way over my head.
Does anyone know what I should be trying to get this to work? I also read that ICS has some form of touch input built in... should I be trying this on that? Right now I am running CM7. It seems to me like with a little work we could have external touchscreens for our Atrix!
Oh I forgot to mention, when I plug the touchscreen in, DMSG does register a USB HID input device as "eGalax Inc. USB TouchController"
CM7 also registers the handlers for the touchscreen as mouse1 and event10 when I run "cat /proc/bus/input/devices"
It seems like this is so close right out of the box! I'm trying my best to load the drivers now from terminal... we'll see how that goes.
Hope you get it sorted.

Thanks, My idea here is to dump the phone to a mounted 7" screen in my car dash. I want to basically have a touch screen head unit with all the power android offers, and the unlimited data that AT&T is still reluctantly supplying.
As far as the project goes... I just tried on Joker's CM9 built with the exact same results... I was hoping maybe the rumors I had heard about ICS support were true, but not out of the box i suppose. As far as the drivers, I can not get the calibration / driver utility to run so far... and that's as far as I'm going to be able to go tonight.

Basically you want to do like, vnc and pocket cloud, where you control your computer via smartphone but you wanna control the phone instead via touchscreen panel, that sounds like a pain in the ass!

Are you sure that the USB isn't just for passing touchscreen input back to a device? I mean, I know there are such things as USB monitors, but I don't think this is one of them, is what I'm saying -- I'm pretty sure you need to use both HDMI and USB for this to work.
Even if you could load the driver. Which you can. You still need to write some libs and script to get android on the screen. Good luck

Perhaps I need to clarify... The Lilliput 669 has a proprietary HDMI cable that breaks into HDMI and USB. I am not trying to send video and input over USB, just input. The HDMI part works as is. I plan on using both HDMI and USB in the final solution.

Yea me too! I have tried in vain to buy this. $189 AU is a little less than $200, which I would be perfectly ok with for a completely working bluetooth solution. However, I can't buy it. MP3car.com is working with the designer to bring the product to market, but they are still 4-8 weeks out, and there are some concerns that it may not be released at all. The designer's web site lists the product as out of stock.
I have tried to find somewhere else that I could buy it, or at least get schematics to build one, but it has been in vain. By the way, this has been re-branded as "Mimics for Android".
I had been wanting to do the same thing. The other day i just came across something that should be coming out end of the month android quadcore mini development board. so you could say use touch monitor and android OS i see they have bluetooth also so maybe phone could connect bluetooth to the android system in car. there isnt much more info on the board but it looks promising for an incar project its tiny. its called odroid-x http://www.hardkernel.com/renewal_2011/products/prdt_info.php
there was some other $100 range android cube thing i saw recently too that might be good. OUYA is name of it maybe XDA will have a section one day for these devices. could make for some good in-car systems much cheaper than indash receivers and more features.
Good luck to ya, keep us posted. I would kill for a solution like this. I would love to be able to implement this, with a fiber optic audio out to a DSP like the Zapco DSP6 or Audison BitOne.1 or the Helix C/P-DSP that is coming to market.

This all sounds good, and I have seen the OUYA... it looks impressive. However this will remove the phone ability if I go this route. I could just check out the android x86 project for that... I believe they already have this screen working actually. I've been trying to follow how they made that work.
I really want to stick with my atrix as the brain so that I retain the 3g connection without another $50 a month or losing unlimited internet.
