You don't need root for using it, do you?

Does this means I can connect a SD/CF cardreader to the HOX to empty my digital camera while on holiday and send the pictures back home (With FTP or whatever)?

A very interesting solution that could work for my compact camera, but I need a solution for my Canon 7D as well, which use CF, and also 8GB isn't enough. So I still would love to be able to connect a card reader to my phone to be able to send the original files to a secure place when I'm on the field.

so, card reader --> female usb to male micro usb adapter --> one x
does this sound correct? do we need anything else (hardware or software)?

Otg doesnt require root
Works out of box

As far as I know, there will be no USB OTG. It would be interesting, if its just hardware related or if some DEVs can make it possible with some other Kernel or software.

Whats your opinion based off?
Unless htc remove it on purpose from the stock device, one x will support 110% OTG

I looked for the technical Details, for ex. here:

There you go under USB otg.
I have HTC Sensation and this device also does not offer this.

Hmm thats weird, cause ive lookef @ code written by nvidea, and tegra3 definitely supports usb otg 110% hence why i said itll be supported unless htc remove it on purpose.
Sensation most likely supports usb otg, sensation xl does, evo
3d does (thanks to chad.goodman), hd2 does, afaik desire does too
The functions there, just depends if htc include it

Pls look at show-p kernel development thread on the sensation forum, have a look @ his changelog, from kernel 3.0 and onwards, on sensation stock otg doesnt work, with custom kernel itll most likely work
I myself was going to bring usb otg to desire hd (msm7x30 soc device) i chose to leave development on dhd, so didnt finish otg as it was a WIP
A thread about usb-otg doesnt need to be created to have that feature

Dualcore phones can run it officially. See the mwc event.. So it should run theoretically good...

The phone should have no problems with it but initially its up to htc, but maybe in the future theyll make it open source so devs here can try. Im really enthusiastic about this, the phone is powerful enough to be both a basic desktop computer AND a media center. Love the idea of one device for everything!

Also just saw that linux 3.3 got out some days ago and it has android code merged in the kernel. This might speed up the development of a desktop solution.

yep but that's the vnc method that can be used on more devices and I feel it's a bit complicated and probably not efficient hardware wise. What resolution can you get when using an external display via hdmi?
wow now this looks really cool!
Anyone any idea if the HTC One X Desktop Cradle has hdmi and usb ports?

Do you know if it'll be compatible with the Ubuntu One? So I can use my phone as desktop and then connect it to a monitor

I've suggested on the thread for this ROM whether they can include it, but it's kinda been ignored. Here's a link to my post asking for it.
Maybe if we made more noise about it, they'd consider doing it.
Yeah, after releasing the Kernel source of our HOX, the chances to enable OTG support(which is required imho) is very high. So this project might become "real" in the near future
/Dev
Wondered if anyone's tried this yet? Or is it impossible without USB OTG?

HTC One X - No USB OTG function !!!

Just got my OTG cable. No reaction by One X !!
Thanks for the info. Sorry, but just to reconfirm, was that cable working before with another device?
Because, its a deciding factor for me to move to One X.
try with keyboard and mouse

Never mind. Will be a nice addition for a custom ROM!
Just found a copy of the user manual. Can't see any reference to it in there either. Odd as a couple of site have confirmed it's presence.
Guess we'll have to get by on the internal storage until HTC release kernel source code and the kernel devs can add it.
Thanks for confirming though.

Oh man dat sucks oh well guess I'll justve to rely more on the drop box, awesome review btw mushweed thanks for sharing the thoughts. Wont be getting mine one x til next week finger crossed here
Was USB OTG support ever automatically supported in HTC Phones? I always thought it was a feature merged into the kernel by any random dev that felt like doing it.

Install HTC Sync. Either that or check for MTP. If you are on Windows, it will recognize MTP. You need the Android app for MTP on a Mac. USB transfer is being eliminated. MTP IS more efficient.

Oh sorry forgot it needed root, I never have a phone without root so I never notice these things, I just remembered the app from when I have my Gnex, not even sure whether it's Gnex only?
... Also can the One X not be rooted?

You could find temp root (before a full) on Modaco website or here on XDA Thread [TUT] temp-root using SuperBoot
You can download here r1-endeavor-superboot.zip
But take care, at the begining it was planned for the non retail One X
and about USB OTG, some devs are going to cooking something and including it in custom roms
Delete pls
Theres 2 usb hosts on the t3 chip, 1 is inernal usb host, reading modem as a usb device and the other is external usb host, e.g. reading from usb otg cable
Current kernel from htc is 2.6 which isnt the latest, when htc upgrade to 3.x kernel usb otg will be included

Look through code written by nvidea
Its either otg wasnt implemented in 2.6.x kernel, or htc are removing it on purpose

Maybe because they want to force people to use the drop box integration? Seems like a bad move if so as it'd be good to have otg access for us that don't want to put huge movies in online storage and such!

Possible.
I guess it depends really on how tight deal HTC have with Dropbox.

Unfortunately Onex doesn't support USB otg.
Only USB host
Otg is pretty much the same as host apart from the power can be pulled from the bus of the device
Host means you need external power

The best place to ask/search this is kholk's eternity project kernel thread since that's the only one with usb otg support other than the HTC jb rom.

Sent from my HTC One V using xda premium
Is there a custom kernel that is known to supports USB Host Mode [OTG without the phone supplying power] on CDMA HTC One V (PrimoC)?
I've been trying SuperSick on my PrimoC, but it doesn't seem to be recognizing anything I plug in despite some encouraging looking kernel messages.
I know that it is necessary to provide external power to the USB connection for it to work as I mentioned in this thread:
