[Q] Question about new leaked ICS roms and OTG USB. - HTC EVO 3D

Do any support OTG USB? Have had this problem since I got the phone and no one has yet to offer me a straight up answer. I know GB wasn't supposed to support it but even rom/kernel combos like Titan and Chads Anthrax that claimed to support it did not. So now with ICS builds being practically fully functional do we finally have OTG USB or is this a HW problem and will never work. If anyone has this working on their phone I would like links to roms/kernels/tutorials you used to make it work.

As far as I know, none of the current ROMs support OTG. I know Chad is/was working on a kernel for ICS that would support it, but I'm guessing you'd need something like CM9 or AOSP ROM to take advantage of it.

DOES THE WIIMOTE WORK on the EVO 3d?

Does the wiimote work with the EVO 3d stock rom(rooted or not rooted)?
Does the PS3 remote work?
Please, I don't can about the first Evo so if you own one good for you. It is a different phone. I just need a simple proven answer. It has been months since it was brought up and the phone has had updates since then.
Also, if it does work, what apps are you using to run it?
No, it doesn't work.
Via My HTC Evo 3D On The Now Network From Sprint.
It will work if you're running cyanogen or miui the aosp based roms. It has to do with the Bluetooth stack that's used in sense.

Gotta be on an aosp ROM. They work for me on cm7.
Whooo! (Cole Voice...)
THANKS
It was a pain trying to find that answer. Maybe it will work with the next update...
or I will try it once CM7.1 fixes all the bugs. And hopefully others who are wondering will see this answer and know once and for all.
"This new update means Android tablets will also be able to act as a USB hub and you'll be to hook up devices such as mice and keyboards and game controllers to tablets and smartphones."

Not sure how trustworthy this is, but it sounds good...
Just wanted to update anyone who read this post!!!
It appears someone has figured it out. Here is a link to a youtube video of the guy who made the app wiimotecontroller.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OS4h1Z2nKHw
Here is something else I found. Not sure what to make of it or what this app does. There is an app called "Bluez IME". It is specifically for a few HTC and Samsung phones with stock rom. I don't think it works on the 3d but I will keep you posted if it does. You can connect multiple controllers and some wiimotes(I guess they made diffent ones).
Anyone no more about the Bluez app?
***Just tested it, it doesn't work. It finds the wiimote but it won't connect. Sucks!!!*** For what its worth it might work with other controllers.

MHL Compatible ROM - HBoot 1.5?

I've gotta say - I've been a little disappointed since rooting my phone a couple weeks ago. I haven't gotten any additional features that I wanted - though running Olympus Rom - it seemed everything ran a little snappier than it used to.
However, today I found out that my MHL adapter no longer works. With Olympus, I got an immediate crash, then after reboot - my adapter only worked to charge the phone. No HDMI out.
Then - after installing a Nocturnal Rom which was supposed to be stock with some tweaks, all I get is an immediate crash when connecting to my MHL adapter. Whether or not the HDMI cable is connected. WTF.
Can anyone tell me a ROM they've got working MHL with? I'm guessing the hboot might make a difference, since I never got USB host capability and some other features I expected out of Olympus Rom.
i think olympus used my kernel and older version had hdmi/mhl issues on hw002 phones, but was fine on hw001 (i test on 001)
flash my r13 release over ur rom - should fix your issue.

Thanks Chad. Unfortunately, the new problem I'm having seems to be that for some reason - I can't flash a new kernel? No matter what I do - your old kernel shows up under the settings menu.
Thanks Chad - I was finally able to change my kernel to r13 using Flash Image GUI. MHL works great now!
It definitely seems to have been an issue with hw002. I still don't have USB host though - so if you find that it's possible to get us a kernel with working USB host for hw002 phones - please let us know.

[Q] More questions on aokp roms [AOKP-Neo 1.5 Linaro]

First, I am currently s-off and running NeoMax v2.0 with what I believe are the newest firmware and radios. I also have Sebastian's overclock kernel. While reading the AOKP-Neo thread, I noticed that it doesn't support custom kernals. Will I be okay just doing a wipe and flashing the Rom, or do I need to do something else because of the kernel I'm currently running?
Next, I understand that there are some bluetooth issues with voice and audio, but does anyone know of any problems when connecting peripherals such as bt keyboards or game controllers? I should be receiving the new Nyko Gamepad soon and am anxious to try it out.
Lastly, I know that It's been previously discussed but I haven't seen an answer that satisfies my needs yet. The AOKP camera qualitly is just plain lousy. I understand that the sense camera is incompatible because it is based on sense. Is it the sense firmware that makes the sense camera so great, or is it the program itself? Would it be difficult to reverse-engineer the program to run on AOKP? Admittedly, if It's not already obvious, I know next to nothing about writing programs and give major props to all the devs here, but is anyone working on this, or should I stop holding my breath?

1. I believe that since you are s-off you can simply flash through recovery and the kernel will install itself. If not you can always do what s-on people like myself do and flash the boot.img through fastboot before booting into the rom for the first time.
2. Not sure.
3. From what I have heard the Devs talk about or how they react, it is not possible to run the sense camera on AOSP or AOKP roms since the app runs on the sense framework that is obviously absent in AOSP or AOKP. From what I understand there is no way to get the sense camera to work without the framework, and I am assuming the Devs that have the knowledge to work around something like that are busy with other, larger issues.
hope this helps
You should be fine just flashing things through the recovery, since Sense and AOSP roms use different kernels it should overwrite it. If you want to be completely sure nothing screws up you can always wipe the boot partition if you are using the latest version of TWRP.

if you flash AOKP and have s-off you will get a custom kernel installed. There are a couple of kernels for AOSP right now. Snuzzo has the most customized one for AOSP
only BT issue that is left is BT calling
camera quality is the same from aosp to sense. only difference is sense cam can do 1080p video recording and aosp can only do 720p

[Q] HTC Amaze Bugs (in General)

Hey guys, I dont post here much but i did some searches and read the FAQs and cant find any info on my questions.
Im wondering about known bugs.
Is there a problem with the bluetooth audio streaming profile? My legend streamed perfectly over BT to my car sterio but Amaze wont.
Lately it does not switch to wifi automatically when I get home. bug?
Has HTC released ANY updates in the last year, b/c Mobilicity in Canada has not given me ONE update.
I found in the FAQ that, when you record video, the audio on the video sucks, all my concert videos suck
the keyboard seems slow and flakey, swiftkey is waaayyy better
So im thinking if selling and getting a nexus 4.
Will a root and rom install fix issues and make it a better phone. Any inut appreciated. I think Ill stick with nexus branded devices in the future. Not getting any updates is unacceptable.
thanks.
so, seems there is a BT issue for audio streaming
support.t-mobile.com/thread/23589
first of all its hard to reply to any of what you stated, because the only thing ive been able to figure out is that you have the Mobilicity HTC Amaze... are you running (STOCK)? is your phone unlocked/rooted/s-on(off)/? are you currently on GB or ICS i don't think there's an offficial JB release for the amaze as far as i know... unless you flash a custom JB rom... lets see what else am i missing.. what version Hboot/Radio are you on, and also not everyones phone works the same way, so the 'in general term" is vague lol

so your phones practically out of the box then? are they any real issues with stock roms though.. i mean besides compatibility with the other actually devices that your using with it.. your car etc... i would suggest unlocking the bootloader, and flashing a few roms to try something new and different.. but be warned... once you flash a rom you'll never stop wanting to flash rom

thanks yea, new phone. i guess ill try rooting and flashing,
i was hoping it wouldnt get to this point. I mean i love 'hacking' hardware to put on new firmware and stuff but not when its a huge hassle and could destroy my unit.
but i guess i have not choice, i know ill like it when i get off my ass and root it ,
thanks

[Q] I have rooted with three purposes: Wifi tether, LTE signal and bluetooth. Help?

So after many people telling me that the only way to accomplish what I want is to root...I did. For the first time ever, in over 5 years of Android ownership. So will itemize the issues at at hand and ask relevant questions and state what I have done within each one. But first, you should know I rooted using this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2026938 and I have SuperSU version 1.25, and still running stock ROM and I am S-On.
Issue 1: Wifi tether.
I have downloaded Wifi Tether version 3.2 Beta 2 and I got it to work. The issue is, is there a better performing app or a way to get this one to perform faster? I get about 2mbps on speedtest.net on my phone while the tethered devices get 0.72mbps..I want to get the same on both. Anybody know how?
Issue 2: LTE connectivity.
Many know the LTE connectivity on LTE Evo sucks the big one. So now that I am rooted, what can I do to improve it? Specific ROM? Specific App? custom radio drivers?
Issue 3: Bluetooth
Within my 3 questions here, I am obviously also asking for ROM recommendations, but I have heard certain ROMs break bluetooth and I wanna avoid that at all costs. But the real issue is not the latter. My concern is AVRCP bluetooth profile. I need it to be version 1.3 or higher in order for my phone to send track/album art info to my car's Display Audio/Navigation screen. This is something I have been trying to figure out for years, I posted many threads on this here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1728786 and here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1702047 and also here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1553950
The difference is that back then, I was not willing to root, but now, I'm already rooted.
So shoot me some solutions, and forever change my life! O well respected community of android tinkerers!
Now for issue 3 (bluetooth), if you guys know a way to get this issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1702047 to work, that would also help me. Here is the OP post quoted
darkleafar said:
So I just recently upgraded from an Evo 3D to the Evo 4g LTE, and the phone is gorgeous and all, but I've lost a major feature and it is scaring the hell out of me, I hope you guys can help:
Intro to my problem:
I have a 2012 Prius V, which has built in Bluetooth and an USB port. My Evo 3D lacked the right level of bluetooth AVRCP profile needed in order to display track names, artwork, etc, on my Prius Nav screen through bluetooth. So to work around that, I would plug in my Evo 3D into the Prius's USB port, then I would select "Disk drive/USB mass storage mode" on the phone and voila! My car saw all my music, complete with track names, album artwork, etc.
My main problem:
All of my music is in my 16GB MicroSD card, so I figured just putting it into my new LTE Evo would suffice...but it didnt. When I plug in my LTE Evo, the "Disk drive/USB mass storage mode" NO LONGER triggers my car detecting it. I noticed a new option, called "Media Sync." Selecting that WILL trigger my car dectecting the phone storage, but it ONLY detects the BUILT IN phone storage, not what's on my MicroSD card.
What's even worse...
Also, if you are wondering, the LTE Evo, despite having Bluetooth 4.0, STILL DOES NOT have the right level of AVRCP needed to display album artwork and track names over bluetooth. I was very, extremely disappointed when I realized this. I ve always been a loyal Anti-Apple/Pro-Windows/pro-Android kinda tech guy, but how come Iphones have been able to do this (track names and album artwork over bluetooth) for several years and this new super phone of ours cannot?
Where I need your help:
How can I make it so that my car can recognize my MicroSD card, not just my phone's storage?
I'm not gonna be forced to stick my music into my phone's built in storage instead of my MicroSD card, am I?
Isnt there any software/firmware or mods/rooting stuff I can do to enable tracknames and album artwork over bluetooth on this phone, since it already has bluetooth 4.0 after all?
Well, thank you very much for your time and I hope y'all have some awesome answers, more than greatly appreciated.

Mean bean fixes only your #1 issue...
1.3 AVCRP Bluetooth profile is not available even on a custom kernel, since meanbean uses stock kernel with elemental X over clock modules, it doesn't have the fix for your issue #3, I've read somewhere else about this feature that even the iphone has but not this phone... Good Luck!

Im running cyanogen mod but my car stereo doesn't have that profile so I can't test for you, plus I haven't been able to drive in a month after a surgery... I remember somebody asking thicklizard about this feature in his arc reactor thread and also in the meanbean thread... Maybe you can pm a kernel developer and see what's involved into getting this feature to work on our phones...

Dude I just rooted for the first time ever. I could not begin to tell you who develops kernels to save my life. But I would have to be S-Off for a custom kernel, right? Anybody with Cyanogen Mod wants to chime in on whether AVRCP 1.3 or higher is present?
Holy crap! A google search answered my own question, they claim AVRCP 1.3 was working on Cyanogen Mod 10.0 but that it broke on 10.1. Link here https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-20
So, can I just flash 10.0 to my phone? what is the difference between 10.0 and 10.1? are they both jellybean builds?
And another thing, the wife was testing the wifi tether on my phone with her I PAD and connection breaks after about 15 minutes. So it looks like it isnt working after all. I just like turns off by itself. Anybody know why this could be?

There is a setting that can be turning it off in the app by itself or it could be the jellybean task killer what rom is she using? And yea you can flash cm 10.0, is jellybean 4.1; cm 10.1 is jellybean 4.2... If you are s-on just remember to extract the boot.img and flash it on fastboot with this command: fastboot flash boot boot.img.
Good Luck!

BUt i was just told if I have RUU 3.16 then i have to downgrade to 3.15 because the 3.16 touchscreen drivers are too new and have not been implemented into the kernel in any AOSP ROMs. correct?

Correct, for that you need to be s-off... Backup all of your stuff and head over to the dirty Racun thread or Facepalm...in the original android development section...
