Hi there,
I was searching the forums for an RS-232 for serial access and can't find any information as I was wondering if there is a RS-232 cable avaiable for serial access. Like the cables RS-232 to USB converter for laptops to config cisco, juipters and Huawei. I have a RS-232 to USB but it is using a regular USB A plug. So the other question is that is possible to use the regual RS-232 to USB converter with gender change, but I don't think there are any drivers for the accessory for WM6. So it sounds like I have answered my own question . BTW, I am using the Kasier and it would be a great help if I can buy one instead of DIY one like -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=257858

would believe it is required for such a device to work that the pda support usb host only Athena does that
Thanks. I though that the Kasier has the OTG (yes it does), but you are right. It doesn't support the USB Host features. Thanks.
if you by OTG mean usb on the go then htc dont seem to use that feature in any of their devices even if the cpu have it included it seems they use their own usb chip
Does anyone tried this Program?

Just found it by accident and don't have a fitting cable
It's look like a fake, because: http://htc-unexisting-model.handster.com/product.php?id=3339
Bluetooth
On the Teksoft homepage there's a driver for bluetooth input too, seems to work in the demo videos?

Has anyone tried this and found it to work / not work.
I want to connect a Leica Total Station (Surveying Equipment) (http://www.leica-geosystems.com/uk/en/lgs_67104.htm) to my Blackstone and use the Leica "Pocket Instrument Explorer" to get the two talking to each other.
On the PC the computer and instrument are connected with a Prolific USB-Serial Converter cable on a standard male Type A USB.
I have a USB Type A to USB Minin converter to physically connnect the Blackstone to Instrument. The software (which, has installed fine and seems to work) has all sorts of settings for COM3 and COM4.
I know that the USB on the Blackstone is not a HOST but I suspect that this is the case on many PDAs and if the case I see no reason why Leica would develope the software if there is not a way to connect them.
Anyone who wants to try this will need the PIE software which is a locked download for Leica Members. I will email a copy to you if desired but do not want to post it here for general distribution.
Few of these threads have been made, but not sure if anyone has shown OTG USB host cable work with USB dongle supporting a bluetooth keyboard and mouse.
I followed this scheme to connect the 4th pin ID to the 5th pin ground. The rest was very simple.

Let me know if you have any questions
I think there was a thread related to this matter already : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1070573&highlight=otg
That thread doesn't use a bluetooth dongle. Instead, it uses the built in bluetooth feature of the phone to connect to a bluetooth keyboard and mouse without using the OTG host usb. That's why I wanted to try it this way and see if it worked.
OTG cable
If i use OTG cable for my NOVO 7 paladin(tablet with Android Version 4.0.1) or Xperia ARC(Android version 2.3.4), can it support to my external USB device(like printer)?

hi,
most devices will work but android doesn`t have any built in printer support... (yet?)

Why don't you want to use the built in BT? Surely then you can output to a big screen or charge the phone.
mouse and keyboard also not detected by XPERIA ARC.

I don't have OTG cable?
Is OTG cable is required?
observation: Using USB HOST Controller Software(Available in Android market)
1) For NOVO 7 Paladin : USB HOST MODE is ACTIVE
:Keyboard, mouse not detected
2) For XPERIA ARC : USB HOST MODE not available or not Active
:Keyboard, mouse not detected
Hi
I've got Asus Travelite HS-1000W USB headphones [1] connected to my PC. They are USB connected, with the "normal" big USB. On the PC, I see the headphones (or rather, the USB dongle) as a USB soundcard.
Is it possible to connect and use this on the Galaxy Nexus, using some sort of USB adapter cable [2]?
Cheers,
Alexander

I tried plugging my USB headphones into my GN with an OTG cable with no luck, no sound through the headphones.
I have tested other USB devices and have had them work perfectly (keyboard, mouse, etc), but USB headphones did not work.
I am currently running stock 4.0.4 on my phone, so with a custom kernel you may be able to get this to work, but for my current setup it doesn't.
On a related note, this link might answer some of your questions.

I don't think you can use any USB headset with stock kernel. USB keyboard and mouse use the standard HID driver to connect which works universally. Linux driver support for audio devices (if any exists for the Travelite at all) needs to be enabled in the kernel for it to work.
Well I've been searching for a while trying to connect the S3 as a laptop using MHL+USB OTG, but seems it is not possible or simply hard enough to consider other options. Several options have been considered:
1- Using BT keyboard/mouse is not always suitable since most of us use 2.4Ghz USB keyboard/mouse and it does not consider connecting HDD or other stuff.
2- I found an application that allows you to use your keyboard/mouse connected to your PC to control the phone, "takecontrol", take a look here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...NvbS5kcm9pZGNvbnRyb2wudGFrZWNvbnRyb2xsaXRlIl0.
Using this app you could also share an HDD connected to that PC solving one of the previous problem BT has.
But this configuration forces you to have your computer switched on... a bit useless if what you want is to connect the S3 as a PC instead of using an actual one.
3- After this I thought of using a wifi USB HUB, but hey! most of routers have USB ports, so why don't we use them instead of buying a new equipment? Then I realised it should work fine for sharing contents from a USB HDD but for USB wireless mouse/keyboard...
(those of you who have a BT mouse/keyboard but don't know how to connect the USB HDD to get "full" PC experience with the S3/S2/Note..., maybe it's still interesting this option)
So my question is if it is possible to connect a USB wireless mouse/keyboard plugging it to a wifi USB HUB. Maybe with an android app? what do you think guys?
I'm still thinkin about this.
Would be possible to use a wireless USB Hub, via wifi or BT?
