Title: Usb Host Problem In C3100
Post by: aka-ranma on March 18, 2006, 09:48:26 am

Any help would be appreciated.  I bought a Gold X & two iRiver cables, but none of my many devices are recoginzed in C3100--the devices powers fine though. I heard Cacko can automatically detect & equip the devices, but I would like to keep using the stock Sharp Rom, if I can.  I basically got this for the Emus & USB host.  Since the EMUs work fine (Tks Cresho), now back to host problem

So far, all I have is:

C3000 automount ipk.

Thanks in advance

My bad.  I got it to work--at least on some of them.  I don't think my C3100 likes 2.0 USB devices though

I want to get a slim cdrw burner, KB, mouse, hub, & a mini HD on eBay.  But the compatibilty issues are making me cautious

I have all of those and they work. If you look at the pics I have, you can try to buy the same.

same here i have a burner and HD and they work fine as long as you dont use the zaurus to power them, instead get an external battey pack and plug it into a hub then run the devices off the hub

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Meanie, I saw your cdrw dvd drive on eBay (I do most of my online shopping there, addicting ), but it's pretty expensive. I am kinda broke now .

Anywyas, here are some that I will definitely get now if it's compatible.  What do you guys think?  Any advice would be really appreciated.

--Mini powered hub (these are on sale all the time.  I would prefer black to match C3100, but ):

--Self Powered HD:

It's really cute & small, if it's compatible, I would like to get it.  Only one

PS.  My PMP also worked with myZaurus, but it was only playing vertically.  Is there anyway to fix it?

Thanks for reading.
