I would very much like that what you imply would be true. I don't know what the "direction of the cable" really means. There is a red cable which comes with the board which is a male microUSB connected to a female USB. That male microUSB is a bid odd in that it plugs into the IOIO but not into the phone. Something in the physical dimensions of the plug are such that it fits only into the IOIO.
My brother isn't using this cable, but he spliced together 2 male microUSB cables, so there is no preferred direction. Perhaps you are talking about that cable I originally asked you about which splits 1 male into 2 female: one USB and one microUSB? I suspect this too has a physical splicing of the wires so again there is no intrinsic direction? My brother says that he can tell if the board is "working" because he gets a message asking something about the IOIO, permission of some sort. With the new phones (all of them), he sees no messages, no sign of life. If you can explain exactly what to test, I can have him give it a try. On my side, I am developing the software so I use Android Studio and the ioioBridge, where the IOIO is connected to the computer. Again, my phone is old (less than 2 years) and works just fine. It passes the USB OTG checker program as well. Thanks for all your help, Ilan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "ioio-users" group.
