Please send it along to me.

Re: N800 USB Host Mode Experiment

I also still would like to see this mysterious information:D

Re: N800 USB Host Mode Experiment

Also interested. Thus far, I've changed the following from the default kernel:

CBUS_TAHVO_USB=y
CONFIG_USB=y
CONFIG_USB_OTG=y
CONFIG_MUSB_HDRC=y
CONFIG_MUSB_HDRC_HCD=y

Also, added some modules for HID, FS, etc. OHCI seems to get turned on somehow, and it seems to conflict with TAHVO_USB...

Re: N800 USB Host Mode Experiment

Ok, so TAHVO_USB stopped erroring about OHCI once OTG was enabled, but it won't link because there's an unresolved extern to a deprecated function otg_set_transceiver... I saw a patch in a nokia thread somewhere where they completely cut out that part of the code as it's no longer necessary, but I need to find it again before making the changes...

Re: N800 USB Host Mode Experiment

Getting host mode really enabled is a matter of recompiling the kernel with the host mode flag on and enabling it with the flasher. Flash the new kernel, and you're in business-- kind of. It crashes, a LOT. I never got further than plugging in something and then trying a thing or two before it crashed. It never seemed to recognize the device fully (printing the new device attached message) without crashing, so I gave it up for the moment. I'm waiting for improvements in the kernel before trying again. It's one of those things that has hit the road-map (to hopefully be done at some point), so I guess we'll see how it turns out.

Going a bit OT.

So if the FM radio was not the Easter Egg...and OTG support looks impossible if the hardware connector doesn't support it...then what is the real HW Easter Egg?

Perhaps it's WiMax?! Or even something you could never imagine :)

Thanks for your quick reply.. so.. what happens If you boot the n800 from an other system e.g. debian?
