This is one hell of a thread...

It has got electronics, signal processing, embedded software, debugging and some nice humour (some of the discussion on the first page is quite hilarious).

BTW, can we charge PDA cell phones (e.g. O2 Atom) via the USB port on the HU?
And if this works, can it be concluded that the ground and voltage levels on the USB port are OK?

Akash, I think you should debug this further. The problem seems to be related to your setup more than the USB pen drive technology as such.

Guys, any way to check the grounding is OK or to measure the USB o/p voltage levels?
