Ok, I finally had the chance to test with a HVR-930C, but it seems my device () is different. It has no slave device at i2c address 0x82, so I can't test this part. Btw, which slave device is this ? Removing the temporary switches to bus A makes no difference (as expected). > There are some things there on the init sequence that can be > cleaned/removed.

Do you want me to send patches to remove these writes ? Which i2c speed settings do you suggest for the HVR-930C and the HTC-Stick (board settings: EM28XX_I2C_FREQ_400_KHZ, code overwrites it with EM28XX_I2C_FREQ_100_KHZ) ? Regards, Frank
