Hacking Ext Leads For Gp2x

[jsnds99]

Hi,
I have a :gp2x F200 and they have now stopped selling the cradles in the uk :angry:. So I have found a lead that is identical to the GP2X ext connection - LG C3310 data cable. If I hacked the lead and changed the USB connector to Female Type A would it work as a USB host ??

No. You need to remap the pins and make a small circuit to power/filter the signal. http://wiki.gp2x.org/wiki/USB_Host_BoB_Schematic
