Has anyone modified a CP-H420MP battery powered hub to usb with their Nokia 770 in USB Host Mode.

If so, what did you do and could you explain to to me.

Thanks

I modified an Apple Shuffle battery charger into a battery powered USB hub, but the mod is not for the novice. That said, the CyberPower unit should be much simpler since it is so much larger. All you need do is put 5 VDC on the USB plug, since I imagine that the plug expects power from the host, which the 770 will not accommodate. A coupl'a wire jumpers and some solder should do it.

Should I be jumpering from the exisiting outgoing USB ports?
