How to use the Alcatel Idol 4s as a usb host

[terra]

Hi All

Anyone use the Alcatel Idol 4S, as a usb host, to power other peripherals, and if so what make/model of cable did you use?

Also, has anyone tried Interop Tools, and what version. There are several in the Store.

Also, is there an FM radio chip, in the unit, can't seem to locate that info.

No, not yet.

Yes, but I never use the store versions. I use version 2.0.79.0 found on the developers xda thread which was I believe his last stable version before putting up the store versions.

Also, is there an FM radio chip, in the unit, can't seem to locate that info.

I am actually not sure on this, but it is theoretically possible if we try editing the registry and then check. Might be a good experiment to see. As this site and other site sources state is has an on board FM Radio Receiver https://www.devicespecifications.com/en/model/bbc23f48

Thx!, for the reply

The only versions of interop, I've used are from xda, was curious about store.

Different site, but also says that there is an FM chip, can't remember where though.

I did edit the reg, for my Lumia 640 FM chip, worked well
