How has the 'crippled' hardware theory been verified? Since the vbus state is constantly monitored(tahvo/vbus) then we know that the line is wired to the TI. The OMAP is OTG compliant, so it sounds reasonable that we just have a partially implemented host in the tahvo driver(src seems AWOL too) or it requires the cable select option for host determination. The 5v injector we use could be just fooling the HNP. Just hopes...


add:
More explanation, since 2 host can be connected an powerconservation is a prime concern, 5v alway on the vbus is not a good thing. I hope the 770 is just taking a conservative role
