Hello fellow OnePlus 5 owners,
One of the features I was looking forward to the most on my new phone is USB-C, since I always hated that to use any USB device on my previous phone I had to drain my battery. I purchased the Ableconn USBC-4APD USB-C hub from Amazon with pass-through power but I am having problems.
When I try to connect the hub, the phone only recognizes power and shows it's charging less than one in a dozen times, and if I then try to connect any USB device (USB flash drive, keyboard) the LED's on the peripheral just flash once and nothing else happens.
I have tried the same flash drive and keyboard with a regular OTG cable and they work fine. I had a co-worker with a Pixel phone try the hub and it passed through power every time (I did not have a flash drive along to test), it also works as a hub on my laptop (did not try passing through power on that).
My question is, has anyone else tried a USB-C hub, and did it work? Is there something wrong with the OnePlus 5 (hardware/software) in general or something wrong with mine in particular, or is there something wrong with the hub?
I'd appreciate any help in figuring this out.
Is the USB-C cable from the OP5 to the hub an USB-C OTG cable? If not, I suspect that is your issue especially as you indicated the OP5 is recognizing the input to be at least a trickle charge. To my understanding any data access and it would be restricted to read only, requires an OTG cable and the OOS OTG setting to be toggled to on (Settings->Advanced->OTG storage). If you gave TWRP recovery installed you can also check the OTG capability by mounting OTG in the Mount menu as a test access alternative to within OOS.

You misunderstand, the USB-C hub does not require a cable to interface with the phone since it has a USB-C cable attached. I didn't indicate that it at least trickle charges, I said that it rarely recognizes getting charged, as in there is no charging indicator on my phone most of the time.
The OTG setting for storage was enabled, however based on you mentioning the switch I disabled it, and it actually detects power every time I plug the hub in to it with OTG storage set to off. This gives me hope that it's a software issue and can be fixed with either patches in the future, or more likely a custom ROM. I was planning on installing TWRP once Lineage OS is available, but I may try it sooner just to give this a try.
Thank you for the reply!

Hello.
I decided to try and make a DIY OTG usb cable for my atrix, followed one of the many guides on the web.
How ever, Nothing seem to happen when I plug something to the phone.
I tried keyboards, mice, pen tablets, thumb drives, but nothing happens.
Also when I connect the phone to my laptop with the same cable, nothing happens either. (From reading around I think that should be expected)
Using another cable the laptop recognize the phone and all is well so I didn't fry the port.
Something else that might be worth mentioning, I use a male micro usb to male regular usb and a converter to female at the end of that one.
I tried it with both latest CM7 nightly and Jokers 0.6.9.1 CM9, both on their stock kernels.
So am I forgetting / missing something or should I take apart the cable again and check what's wrong?
Edit:
Toke apart the cable, removed the connection between pin4 and pin5 and the cable worked as a normal cable again.
Can't think of a reason why this isn't working.
normal OTG cables don't work with atrix,
I have read somewhere that you need to power the otg cable with external power source, you can mod a powered usb hub for example
Thank you.
I don't have a powered hub, nor a regular hub...
So I'll try to make a usb y cable that will power the mouse/keyboard and see if that will work.
Edit:
That did the trick.
Made a Y cable that connects the data between the phone (with OTG cable between) and device and an extension that connects both to power only (currently from laptop usb).
At first it didn't work at all but after a few tries it started to charge the phone, allowed me to connect a DOK and a mouse.
However didn't want to work for a 250HDD or a pen tablet.
I ordered a usb hub and hopefully it will allow me to connect several devices at once.
Thanks again.
I've messed around with this quite a bit. Unfortunately, it seems Faux kernels don't work great with a variety of devices, but work fine for mouse/keyboard. Don't even work very well for USB flash drives and such. I don't even know where to go to report such issues.
This also means on Joker's CM9 it doesn't work great even if it should. Don't forget that CM9 port is still using a Froyo (!) kernel.
It's honestly not even worth building your own cable. You can get hubs that work for this for $5 such as this one:
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/cable-style-dual-power-1000ma-usb-2-0-4-port-hub-13526
Which is the one I currently have.
I'm currently using latest CM7 with the stock kernel and have no issues with USB flash drives.
It usually brings a notification of "preparing SD card" and mounts it under /mnt/usbdisk_1.0
I tried making 4 partitions on a flash drive, EXT2, EXT4 , FAT32 and NTFS .
Thought it only mounted one of them on /mnt/usbdisk_1.0 , it was easy to mount the others /dev/block/sda<1,2,3,4> onto /mnt/usbdisk_1.<1,2,3,4> thus having simultaneous access to all 4 partitions.
How ever the NTFS one only had read permissions since android and NTFS don't go together too well.
The hub you linked to is just a hub, I needed an OTG cable and ordered a 0.99$ usb hub that I will modify for power. so pretty much all set now.
As to reporting such issues, you could ask on the forums if other people have the same issues and how they get around them.
I got these:
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/micro-usb-on-the-go-host-otg-adapter-pair-50774
I tried all sorts of devices, not least of which was a 360 controller. The kernels are very spotty at recognizing new devices being attached.
this is on CM9 of course
I haven't tried to replicate that on CM7 because, frankly, CM7 isn't supposed to support 360 controllers.
The hub I linked is very convenient. It already has a USB power lead as well as a lead for the OTG adapter.

Hope it helps.
I'm wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to have simultaneous OTG & charging with the use of a pogo pin charger?
For instance, plug in a usb OTG into the main microUSB charging port, and use a pogo pin charger [either make one or buy when they are available], and have a flash drive, or hard drive plugged in, and charge at the same time with the pogo pin connector?
I used to have a Nexus 7, and via a custom kernel, and a OTG charging cable [basically a regular OTG with additional power wires & connector for charger]. But I think it would be simpler to use the pogo pin approach. The only thing I'm worried of however, the kernel might disable OTG while it charges via pogo, or perhaps disable charging while OTG is enabled. I guess in this case, we would need a modified kernel to achieve simultaneous OTG and charging.
Here is a link to one of the first Nexus 10 pogo charger cables and it makes this claim:
"You still can power Nexus 10 while the USB port is otherwise occupied for data uses. It is fun & convenient to have MagNector to free up the USB port and charge faster."
http://www.ebay.com/itm/MagNector-N...ader_Chargers_Sync_Cables&hash=item20ce4990a6
So if that statement is true than the answer to your question is Yes.
eBay item is no longer available..
However, I know how sellers often make unfounded claims like that. So while it's probably a good sign, I am not convinced it's true. If anyone is fortunate enough to have a pogo charger, could you test it out with a otg cable and let us know the results?
Or if you're a kernel hacker, maybe take a look at the kernel source code and tell me what you think?
Also if anyone has a link where I could read about pogo pins for the N10, I'd like to read it. I'm interested in trying to make one, if they don't make any low-cost ones in the near future.

Just wondering, have you actually tried it yet? I remember on the n7 it would disable pogo charging when you plugged in otg. I hope n10 is different.
Swiped from my Nexus 10 using xda-developers app
I got the pogo cable in today. I plugged the usb-otg cable into the Nexus 10 with a thumbdrive connected to it. Stickmount recognized the thumbdrive and I can read/write to it. I noticed that the battery runs down while the otg is plugged in though. Running Paranoidandroid 2.99 with whatever kernel comes with that.

I know it's not the original question, but it looks like that would be possible with a modified OTG USB cable. Sounds like you already have something similar.
I was thinking about this for using my n10 for larger video recording when away from wifi. Just need to hook a battery up to the OTG while its plugged into the thumb drive. It takes a charge off my laptop when connected via the otg usb, so it should work as well with the correct setup voltage/wiring .
I would also like to know the pin designation for the pogo plug. If you can do the same setup as the one above, with the pogo... There would be less chance of damage to the tablet on the go......

I know a nonstandard OTG cable [a OTG charging cable, basically the same as a regular one, except it has female USB only connected to the charging pins] and a modded kernel allowed for simultaneous OTG + charge on the Nexus 7, but I'd rather not have to deal with that, as getting a separate pogo charger seems like a better option.

It has to be a moded kernel to access the data in read/write mode? Nothing to do with charging, and correct?
What I was considering is a battery/usb hub combo. One that plugs into the micro usb port and the battery actually has a female usb port for the thumb drive (need root to write to the drive, but not to stream from it). Amazon carries lots of external batteries with micro usb connection and the female usb port.
I agree, the pogo would be much simpler and still allow data through the micro usb.
The pogo would be much better for portability for this type of use especially if it allows for faster charging. If no one has the pin layout, guess I'll wait to get mine and test them myself. 6 pins on the n10 itself so it's not a standard usb pin setup?

No, on the Nexus 7, if you plug in a OTG cable [which basically grounds a certain pin, the only difference between micro OTG and micro to full size USB adapter], it disables charging through power pins, because it needs to send power to OTG device, for example, a flash drive. It needs +5V power.
So the kernel mod was to disable the output of power, so that it could instead receive power and charge, from the charger. [The charger also 100% powering the OTG device]
Even if you have an externally powered hard drive, it needs power to turn on, even if it uses a wall adapter for the actual power to run the device.
Here is the kernel I was talking about: http://mehrvarz.github.com/usb-host-mode-power-management-nexus7/
it was made by a rootzwiki user. some discussion here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1934722
Check the images of the USB hub on the 1st link.
Just for the heck of it I plugged a USB cable connected to my PC into the Nexus 10 while the pogo was also connected. The Nexus 10 showed up on the PC as it normally does in the file explorer and I can transfer files back and forth as usual. I went to Settings -> Battery on the Nexus 10 and it showed "Charging AC". I then unplugged the pogo cable and the status changed to "Charging USB". Plugged the pogo back in and the status switched back to "Charging AC". Then to make sure the pogo was actually doing the charging, I watched 2 hours of Netflix with the screen set to full brightness. The battery went down only 2%, so I'm pretty sure the pogo was doing the charging.

Thanks for your test. However with Nexus 10 connected to pc it is not in otg/host mode. You need to connect for example an usb memory with a otg cable to test if charging work with host mode enabled. There seems to be some discussions going on claiming pogo charging is disabled in host mode on Nexus 10 as well. It would be really really stupid if that's the case and I can't for the world figure out how they could put this limitation in the kernel.

Yes I tried that and the pogo would not charge.
EDIT: I bought a couple of OTG Y-cables on ebay (1 male micro usb end, 1 female micro usb end and a female usb end) to play around with when I saw they had a fix for the Nexus 7. I tried one on my Nexus 7 (PA rom and Timur kernel), connecting the female usb to a powered usb hub that has 16gb sdhc card plugged into it. Then connected the female micro usb end to a spare micro usb charging cable and the other end of the charging cable to the usb hub. The male micro usb end gets connected to the Nexus 7. I fired up the Nexus 7 while in the Asus pogo dock I bought for it and it charges the Nexus 7 while also allowing the OTG connection. I tried the same setup with my Nexus 10 (PA Rom, Ktoonez kernel) and pogo cable and it worked. The Nexus 10 charges through the pogo cable while the OTG works also. With the usb hub I'm using with the Nexus 10, I had to plug the charging cable into a charger wall wart. I don't think the old hub was putting out enough power to power the usb device. I let them both run over a day like this. Ran some RomToolBox app backups on both them and they both are charging on the pogo pins while doing so. If you go to system settings -> battery it shows "Charging AC" on both.
The galaxy nexus already has a custom kernel that supports OTG + charging (via a y-cable):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1835720
In that thread (and the link in the OP there) there are discussions about porting that kernel to the nexus 7. Also, this modified kernel is (currently) for 4.1.2. Unfortunately I am not smart enough to do this myself (especially we are now dealing with the pogo cable and the USB); I do hope to let everyone -- especially the developers! -- knows about the possibility in view of the gnex kernel.
Is this an issue only with Disk Media over OTG, or is it with anything (controllers, etc.) over OTG?
If anyone is interested read my edit a couple of posts up.
Sv: [Q] Pogo pins and OTG question [simultaneous charge & OTG?]
It says AC charging even though it's not actually charging. Confirm this with for example battery monitor widget.

Am I all alone? Any tips?
What devices are you trying to connect to your phone?
I had some issues at first, but realized I had to wait a bit longer for the phone to analyze the USB sticks or external 2.5in USB drives or external 3.5in USB drives.
When I plugged one in, it would show the little OTG symbol for something is connected, but the phone would be thinking for awhile before it would actually show up as a drive.
Have you tried a different rom? See if it's just a stock issue?

I haven't tried any other ROMs yet. I prefer to stay stock because aside from the OTG it works great and it's my daily driver. I may update to Nougat after a week or so. Kinda letting the update dust settle.

I also had a problem once, which turned out to be a faulty adapter.
I've tried three different adapters (including the one that comes with the A7). I see the flash drives LEDs blink upon boot up but not after phone is fully powered up.
I was getting the contents on flash drives on Twrp but now I can't get that. Not sure what I've done differently, but I'll keep digging.

You will need a USB-C to USB-A 3.0 Adapter to get it work, devices won't work attached to a normal USB-C to Micro USB Adapter. Neither with the adapter comes with the phone nor with an aftermarket (56K resistor) adapter.

Hi,
So I'm developing an app to communicate over serial with a HID and testing on the g6 is proving troublesome.
The scene:
-Hid/USB Permissions granted
-Device filter correct and working as intended
-Goal is to send a string over serial.
Allthough I'm 100% sure my test code is correct, the app cannot open a serial port.
Is it normal behaviour in recent versions of android for the device to recognise an otg cable as a power source? Even with no other device connected? Are there any known issues opening serial ports on the g6? (7.0)
The cable works as intended when I plug a mouse or keyboard in but refuses to open a serial connection when my takget device is plugged in. It recognises it as a HID an can pull the serial number etc.
The android serial library should not require root or any other hackery So I'm a bit confused. I've ordered a few other otg adapters just in case.
Anyone who knows what might be going on pleas pitch in.
I've had some issues getting a serial adaptor working as well. I'm on 870DS. Originally tried the wired version of this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...odemu-connect-android-to-30pin-t3234840/page1
Thank God the developer changed to Bluetooth. I tried about 6 different otg cables. Worked fine on other non usb-c phones.
I suspect it is the adapter too...sucks so bad. The annoying thing is that I was so confident in android serial that I wrote a lot of code before I bothered testing the concept lol.
Does your OTG work on memory sticks OK? I have a G6 h870ds. My OTG only works for me with USB3 OTG adapters and USB3 memory sticks. I don't have a USB3 HID device to try. I now have a large collection of different OTG adapters and memory sticks. I opened up some of the adapters to buzz them through to make sure they were made correctly. They were! It took a while for the penny to drop why some things worked and some didn't!
I cant use USB2 OTG adapters or USB2 memory sticks, keyboards or cameras. Initial connection of the USB2 OTG adapter is recognized but no connected devices are detected. I used an app called USB Device Info that can give me details of detected devices and only USB3 devices are ever detected.
I have a USB2 memory stick with an LED on it. When it is first connected to the OTG cable it flashes in a way that leads me to think it is trying to reply to USB bus interrogation but something (probably software) fails. The phone connects to my USB2 PC port just fine so I don't think the hardware is at fault. I've reset the phone and upgraded to Oreo too but alas that didn't help.
A friend of mine has a G6 H870S and all my adapters and memory stick combinations work fine on his phone so I find myself wondering if I'm just unlucky or whether the dual sim version is subtly different in some way.
I fully admit I know nothing about the inner workings of USB but as far as I can determine USB3 uses all of the USB2 connections and the additional connections only available on a USB3 port so the hardware should be OK. I'm guessing most HID devices are USB2 but if its a USB3 could you possible have a related problem but in reverse?
Every time I plug in any USB OTG adapter I get that same pop up screen that defaults to select as "power supply" even with no device connected whatever I have previously chosen.
What works for me is to plug in the OTG adapter, and only then plug in the memory stick to it. Otherwise I get the "Power supply" thing too.

Leaving just the OTG adapter connected for a few seconds then attaching the usb device does not help. USB2 devices are never detected but all my various USB3 memory sticks work reliably when using a USB3 spec adapter. I've given up worrying about it now and accepted that there is just something a bit iffy about my G6.
Hi,
I have a odd issue. My essential phone refuses to recognize any USB-C connections to computers. I have tried replacing the cable, and have used all forms of cables, but the only one which appears to work is a USB-C to USB-C cable, specifically when connected to a LG V30+ LS998 (frankensteined into a US998) - Using this, I am able to get ADB commands using a magisk module, but I cannot get fastboot commands and, as soon as the phone boots into recovery, the USB connection abruptly dies. Any solution or ideas for this??
To recap -
USB-A to USB-C does not work.
USB-C to USB-C (when plugged into a PC, regardless of OS or USB port spec) does not work.
USB-C to USB-C (when plugged into a phone) does not work, except on a LG V30+
This is the strangest issue I've ever encountered, and I desperately would appreciate any solutions.
