Hi,
I'm trying to access a Samsung Galaxy S phone connected via USB to my server running ESXi 4. Since upgrading my phone to Android Ice Cream Sandwich, I'm having trouble seeing it in my Ubuntu VM. Initially, it wouldn't be recognized at all by the VM but would cause khubd to spin cycles. By poking around on another forum, I was able to solve part of my problem. I added the following to the .vmx config file:
usb.quirks.device0 = "0x18d1:0x4e20 skip-reset"
usb.quirks.device1 = "0x18d1:0x4e21 skip-reset"
usb.quirks.device2 = "0x18d1:0x4e22 skip-reset"
Now the device shows up when I run lsusb, but does not show up as an Android device when running adb. This is the output of dmesg:
[71096.038032] usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5
[71096.205184] usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[71106.206838] usb 1-1: can't set config #1, error -110
And these are the last several lines of the vmware.log:

Will upgrading to v5 solve my problem? A short-term workaround would be helpful.
Thanks for any help you can give,
