Since people keep asking me how to do this I made a tutorial.

I forgot how to modify the 770 via the Xterminal to get this to work but here's how to modify the hub itself.

The Cyberpower Hub provides power via batteries to the Female USB Ports. However, it does not provide power to the male plug. The Nokia needs this power on the Male plug in order to trip the host mode. So what I did was I took a regular wire and soldered it from a point on one of the Female Ports to the Male Plug. This borrows power from the female and brings it to the male.

NOTE: Try to find a thinner wire than the one I had. Mine was thick so the cover of my USB Hub wouldn't go back on anymore. I was too lazy to get another wire and redo it so I just let it run without a cover lol. Good luck!


1. Take off the cover


2. Pull out the red circuit board (keep it attached of course)


3. On the bottom of the board, I got a small wire and here's what I soldered it to:
