This is a list of USB devices that have been tested on the Pandora. If the device you want to know about isn't listed here, don't worry! Just go to the USB reference page, look up the specs of your device, and you may be able to figure out if it's compatible.
Contents
Troubleshooting
Each type of device will have its own unique way to troubleshoot.
But here are some general tips:
- Is USB-Host enabled?
- check lsusb
- check dmesg
When asking for help on the forums support board, be sure to post both your lsusb and dmesg.
Because dmesg output is very long, you need to paste it within [spoiler] tags like this:
[spoiler] (paste your dmesg in here) [/spoiler]
An easy way to get your dmesg so you can easily copy and paste it, is:
dmesg|leafpad
leafpad will open with the output of dmesg.
If you have no networking on your palmtop, you can send the information to a text file like this:
cd (your storage card) dmesg>textfile.txt sync
Then you can remove your card (if no programs are using it or PNDs are running on it) and bring it to a card reader on your desktop.
Networking
Please see the Mobile broadband page for tips on how to get these working, as well as this tutorial from the GP32X forum.
HSDPA (3G) Modems
Please note that many (if not all) USB 3G modems need modemmanager to be installed for switching from mass storage mode to serial communications mode. When first plugged in, most 3G USB modems claim to be a mass storage device and offer, on its built-in flash, drivers and connectivity software to be installed. Mostly this is only for Windows and Mac, so for the Pandora this is not useful. modemmanager instantly takes care of toggling the mode, so that when you plug in the modem, after a few seconds or maybe half a minute modemmanager has switched the modem to communications mode and NetworkManager is able to use it.
If you are using a Firmware before HF7 (or one of its Alpha/Beta versions) you have to install modemmanager. To do so, connect your Pandora to the Internet, open a terminal and, as a super user, intall it via opkg by entering the commands:
- sudo opkg update
- sudo opkg install modemmanager
Note: If you are using a firmware more recent than "Zaxxon" Hotfix 6 (starting with HF7) you do not have to follow the steps outlined above since modemmanager comes preinstalled.
Note 2: After plugging in the USB 3G modem, it may take some time until NetworkManager is able to use the modem. Wait for at least half a minute, until you give up and report that the modem doesn't work.
| Device | Driver | Connector | Supported standard | Current draw | Suggested connection to Pandora | Works on Pandora | Additional comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ZTE K3565-Z / MF626 / MF627 / MF636 | Not required | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Standard-A port | Yes [1] [2] | A how-to by shideneyu for this modem can be found here |
| BandLuxe C270 | Not required | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Standard-A port | Yes | A how-to by relliker for this modem can be found here |
| Huawei E156G | Not required | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Standard-A port | Yes [3] | |
| Huawei E160 | Not required | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | 250mA | Standard-A port | Yes | As the entry for Huawei E220 was wrong, this Current draw could also be wrong. This one definitely needs modemmanager. After installing modemmanager, it works flawlessly. |
| Huawei E160E | Not required | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | 250mA | Standard-A port | Yes | As the entry for Huawei E220 was wrong, this Current draw could also be wrong. |
| Huawei E1750 | Not required | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Standard-A port | Yes [4] | |
| Huawei E220 | Not required | Standard-A | USB 1.1 | 500mA | Standard-A port via High Speed hub | Not on new kernels. | The successful Pandora E220 tests were done by DJWillis on an old kernel (long before Pandora shipped). It seems that they are NOT working any more. Also tested on Linux (was it working?) This entry originally said 250mA, but there is no source and current sources say 500mA. |
| 4G-Systems XS Stick P14 | Not required (usbserial module) | standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Standard-A port | Yes [5] | Requires usbmodeswitch program. |
| iPhone 3GS (Probably also 1G/3G) | ipheth | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | 500mA | USB A (Standard-A port?) | Should work in Angstrom with some work. | Requires a good bit of dependencies to get working. Tested with Debian from SD, but should work in Angstrom with some work. The ipheth wwan0 device only provides a connection over the 3G modem, even if you're connected to a wifi network. I used the iproxy and SSH tunneling method with proxychains to get to the wifi network. |
| HTC Desire | not required | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | 500mA | USB A (Standard-A port?) | Yes | Requires internet connection sharing to be enabled from the phone. |
USB to Ethernet adapters
To enable USB Ethernet adapters on the Pandora, you may need to left-click the networking icon on the panel in Xfce, and select "Ifupdown (bnep0)".

USB WiFi adapters
The Pandora stock kernel may not come with all wireless driver support outside of the internal WiFi chip. Sometimes, the only way you'll get wireless working is to build your own kernel with it included or try compat-wireless.
As for hofix 6a4 compat-wireless seems to be present in the kernel out of the box, so one can build a USB wireless driver for Pandora following this algorithm
As for hotfix 6 Release Candidate the kernel includes drivers for these Realtek chips: RTL8712/8188/8191/8192SU/8192CU

| Freecom 250GB 2.5" portable | Not Required | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Direct | Yes | Inside it's a Samsung Model HM251JX. So I guess anything based on that will also work OK. |
| (Intenso)® 2.5" MEMORYSTATION 1TB | Not Required | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Direct | Yes | |
| LaCie Rikiki 250GB USB 2.0 2.5" Hard Drive | Not required | standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Standard-A port via powered High Speed Hub | Not when unpowered, needs testing with a powered hub | Not only does it fail to spin up, but it causes the Pandora's screen to pulsate wildly, much like an old CRT would if you placed a speaker or a magnet near to it. Not tested with a powered hub. |
| Seagate Seagate® Expansion™ External Drives | Not required | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Direct | No | Tested by Hitnrun. "Isn't even detected in lsusb (drive powered by external power source)" |
| Verbatim 250GB Model #47580 Hard Drive | Not required | Direct | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Direct | Yes | Tested by almatuk. "Watched videos directly from it at full speed, no need for powered USB hub. Had issues playing roms directly off it however as it was formatted NTFS. I'm sure if I formatted to FAT32 these would disappear." |

| Western Digital 500GB My Passport Essential External Hard Drive | Not required | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Direct | Yes | Tested by Esn. Works fine. Came pre-formatted in NTFS, but should work if you downloaded the community codec pack. It said 1TB on the packaging, but there was 465GB free space, so I'm pretty sure it was actually the 500GB one.[15] |
| Western Digital 1TB My Passport Essential SE External USB 2.0 2.5" Hard Drive | Not required | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Direct or through powered High Speed Hub | Yes | Tested by Mycohl. Externally powered hub recommended to conserve battery power. |
