Can b4a detect a 2.0 port as different to a 1.1 port?

Hi all,
I keep getting "this device can run faster by using a 2.0 port" message each time I plug my phone in or change to and from usb storage device.

I don't feel the message is consistant as the message appears randomly no matter which port I plug my phone into.

Can b4a test/ query each port and tell me which 2 of 10 are my usb 2.0 ports?

tia

My bad.
I think its unreliable or the device or the cable to the device or a combination of multiple usb devices plugged in at the same time.
As the MB specs show I only have 2.0 ports:
Newegg.com - GIGABYTE GA-P55-UD3R LGA 1156 Intel P55 ATX Intel Motherboard

Also:
You can plug the device into the front - both the front and back are USB 2.0 capable.

The slower transfer rate for the front is applicable if you plug a 1.1 device into the front ports.

very easy. Look at the icon near the USB port.
it should look like a trident.
the first tip should end with a circle and a "+" sign;
the second tip is an arrow;
and the third tip should end with a square.
If you see that, then you have 2.0 USB port. if not, then you have an earlier version.

LOL. Its labeled on the box. Proper lighting and proper reading glasses helped to identify the small trident stamp.
