Guest Omar93 Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 Hello ! I have found this website: http://sven.killig.de/android/Blade/usb_host/ It's about the usb host "mod" for my ZTE Blade. That's why I have bought all the hardware to do it. However, when I want to install the boot.img on my phone it doesn't work. Indeed, first, I put my phone on fastboot mode (vol + and power), then I plug my phone to my PC and I type (to boot on it but it doesn't install): sudo ./fastboot-linux boot boot.img so, I get this: downloading 'boot.img'... OKAY booting... OKAY After this, my ZTE screen goes black and... nothing. I have to unplug and reboot my phone to make it work again (but USB host is not installed). What I have to do ? I have FLB Froyo 2.2 with Kernel 2.6.32.9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fonix232 Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 This will not install the kernel, you have to flash it: sudo ./fastboot flash boot boot.img Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Omar93 Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 It will install it but if I want to boot on it WITHOUT installing , what to do ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hecatae Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 This will not install the kernel, you have to flash it: sudo ./fastboot flash boot boot.img eclair boot.img with a froyo rom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Omar93 Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 Is it for Eclair ? Doesn't work on Froyo ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest oh!dougal Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 eclair boot.img with a froyo rom? Sven's Blade work was on 2.1 He was ahead of the game with Host Mode, but did it at the very time that 2.2 started appearing. Now that 2.2 for the Blade is pretty mature, this should be revisited. And OTG mode-switching too, please ... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
