Ok, so i can instruct the root hub via usermode to go into test mode. So its 
possible from usermode as far as i see but not from shell directly?

Is there anything strang with this status code   ^^^^^^^ ?
This is where the trouble begins.

Well, it is unconnecting then out of the blue, randomly very seldom without 
any good reason...

Ah ok this is the status field i was talking about. The device is an USB stick 
doing file operations. So right after the disconnect the stick is not 
answering, but later it is working again. So after the disconnect the stick 
probably needs some time to reset?

Ok but they are deferred from the flags if i understand the sourcecode 
correctly?
