Usb host/usb on the go - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Does anybody here know if the evo lte is compatible or is working with that kind of cable?
Some places I read that is the kernel and this phone is not compatible, but other places they are selling the cable and saying it works.
Also someone tried transfering pictures using nfc?
I can transfer youtube or website links, or contacts; but not able to transfer pictures.

I have tried this with two different host cables and it does not seem to work for me (works just fine with my xoom). It sucks that they would not include this as this is part of Android since 3.2. HTC needs to fix this.

Ok, thanks for the info, I hope htc fix this soon, is a good feature to have.

Yea you can't send picture using Nfc. Samsung tweaked s beam to do it using Wi-Fi direct and I'm fully expecting Google to assimilate that into 4.1 or whatever jellybean will be.
With usb otg it's in ics but needs to be enabled in the kernel. So hopefully when the source is dropped we can get that done. Don't know why they would do that from the beginning.

Yeah I thought i saw somewhere nfc being use to transfer photos but then thats what it is. It would be nice if it was a nfc feature.
Hopefully htc makes an update to use usb on the go.

I saw that bump to send feature in the new Windows Phone 8 keynote. I'm assuming it uses NFC to initiate some WiFi connection for transferring.
If we can get USB hosting to work, that would be awesome!

Anything new on this? I sure would like to see this working on my EVO LTE...

Most basically it allows you to mount usb drives. Full functionality allows you to plug in controllers and other usb devices which the OS has drivers for. In the case of my asus transformer it allows the use of 3g dongles as well as flash drives.
Awesomesauce has OTG enabled in the kernel, but i don't know of any rom that has auto mounting baked in, i had to use a 3rd party app to mount my drives and even then it was a little clumsy and took forever to mount.

[Q] Mhl not recognized after s-off?

Mhl output not being recognized after s-off. Anyone else with similar issue? Worked fine prior too. Worked with Temp root also. Any idea's?
Are you rooted stock or on a custom rom. If so which rom?

I'm not sure. I'm soff running mags rom and mine is working fine
Apple sucks ballz
I nand back to stock rom, and working. I'm back stepping now to figure out what I did to flub it up in the first place. I had flashed a variety of new roms out. But had wiped each time. I don't think it was the roms, probably some of my own tweaking.
Did you flash custom kernel? That probably did it if so.

Pretty sure you have to give the MHL adaptor a power source for it to work. As in plug the usb into the wall. So you have the hdmi cable to the tv and the usb cable to your AC adaptor.
Tmobile works.just finefor my.3d after.rooted just like its said.u have to.connect power also it.on the side , for it.to work

Do you have a link to that cable?
Mine works fine....even on the dock and off the dock...

Tv out, how does it work?

Just as the post says how does it work, I have the feature on my Rom and I went to Best Buy and bought their $50 dollar cable but I got nothing on my TV's. I think I got audio once but no picture so other than plugging the cable into the phone and into the tv and turning it to the right input what else us there because I did all of that?

Tv out
Ya you do need to connect the wall charger, but for some reason does anyone know why it doesn't actually charge my phone? While using it my power drains very slowly.
The mhl adapter and phone is being charged at the same time. It's a weak charge to begin with when you aren't displaying anything. Just have to deal with it.

I knew this was going to happen, I am not talking about mhl's, I know how that works. I'm talking about the function where you can use the headphone port to use a RCA type cable to play or send images and or videos to your tv.
Does any one know how this function works?

I'm pretty sure that even though the ROM you're on may support it that this phone isn't capable of it. I've never heard of anyone getting that to work. Let us know if you do figure it out though. I just don't think that the headphone jack can output video. It only does audio. I believe its a hardware limitation.

Olympus trinity 3D beatless has it and I asked how it works but have not gotten an answer.

You know that some roms are ported from other phones. Some settings will make its way over. There might be a setting for this, but from what I have been told is that the hardware will never support it.

This. What i do also is turn my screen brightness all the way down and it helps greatly to last longer while doing hdmi stuff

EVO 3D does not do this. Some put it into ROMs and said it worked, but no one has actually done it. This is hardware limitation. Anyway, use MHL it'll do HD and Dolby.
hi the first think sorry for my english
i saw in ebay .. the micro usb converter to hdmi its work for samsug galaxy s2 ... htc evo 3d... htc sensation ... its a small converter from the micro usb to hdmi .... i payed one in ebay ... and im waiting for that ... if that work i will write again here

All the micro usb to HDMI i saw after a quick search were indeed MHL adapters. If you get a MHL, one end is male micro usb plug and the other is male HDMI plug.

USB charging script

Saw this over on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 forums since I got my wife one for Christmas. Wondering if we could adapt this to let us charge faster while plugged in a USB?

Already wrote something similar into the kernel I'm working on. You'll be able to toggle it via incredicontrol.

Any chance of having this in app form?
I have the headphone interference and don't want to void my warranty just yet, unless your kernel will fix that as well? (HTC is saying it's a software issue)

Not quite sure how this fits into Themes and Apps but....
There's a KDE tablet coming out...could be the base for what you're talking about. And the attrix laptop dock basically does what you're talking about. So a combination of the two ideas....who knows.

Xbox 360 controller with evo 3d gsm?

I read people connect ps3 controllers to their evo 3d, but i do not own one, unfortunately. I do own a pair of xbox360 controllers, and since i do not use the console anymore because of its outdated graphics, i was wondering... Is there any way i can connect it to my phone?

Outdated Graphics?
Not even gonna comment on that..
I haven't found a way yet, I'll look into it.
Wait, so you're ditching your Xbox's "outdated graphics" and going onto a phone's"super dated graphics"?
That makes a lot of sense.
Anyways, a OTG should work fine if your kernel supports it.
No guys, outdated graphics compared to pc, not phone, lol . Anyway, the otg I doubt will work, since my controllers are wireless and i have tried using a play and charge kit as "cable", but nothing happened, even though my kernel supports otg, I tested with a few flash drives and they worked

The reason why ps3 controllers work is due to their use of Bluetooth, the 360 controllers use something completely different.

The play and charge kit is not even close to an OTG cable. You need a completely different cable for that.

Unfortunately i kinda knew that, but i have not seen any other type of cable for them. Also, the play and charge does support data transfer, but it is disabled through the driver in windows...
