Hi all I actually sent out an email last night asking a similar question:
Hi everyone, I've read a number of emails and forum posts that talk about using the usb to connect peripherals. I used the flasher to enable R&D mode and USB host mode and there are no errors. But when I reboot and connect a keyboard through my power booster I made, it still thinks it is just connected to a computer. Does the USB only work on the 770 or do I need to do something to the kernel to get it working or do I need to do anything else to get it working. I have a number of things I want to use the USB port for, I just want to get the keyboard working so I know the port is working. I am hoping to get my USB GPS working with one of the mapping programs and I also want to use it to interface with a real time system I've made that would connect through a USB to serial adapter. But first I just want to get a keyboard working to get through the biggest road block I see. Thank you for any help. If this has been discussed before I would appreciate anyone who can point me to the discussion. I spent most of yesterday trying to get just a keyboard working after building a power injector. So to the original question yes I have played with it on the n800 but I had no luck. I really hope we can figure this out. I think it will add a number of opportunities to the device.
