oke a couple of questions,sins im getting the GN this Saturday.
i know that USB OTG is disabled by default unless you get a kernel that turns on the option.
but is the USB OTG also working with USB flash drives and external HHD's(when unlocked/turned on) if so, whats the best kernel/mod i should use. and i dont care if i need to command mount it in the terminal app.
second question,
there was a report on ICS that ICS will have build in screenshot buton combo or some sort.
is it really there? does it work by default,or is it yet another kenrel option?
and does any one have an example screenshot?
nobody?isnt there anyone that can answer it

USB OTG will be enabled with an update, this has been confirmed on g+ by a googler. In the meantime I use the latest MCR rom from modaco.com and USB OTG works fine

Which is answered by Jean-Baptiste Queru here:

This is probably less about USB OTG host mode as a feature and more about how ICS handles auto-mounting storage attached to it hence the "host mode experience" isn't 100% yet, even though host mode and HID work fine with the right kernel.

Hi there! I was reading something on xda forum and i found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1493325, an apk that check the usb host capabilities of our device and send the results to an online database. I tried it on my defy, but unfortunately i haven't got a usb otg cable (that is a micro-usb to usb adapter with host capabilities if someone didn't know it). So, my results was been very similar to that of the droid bionic that you can found there http://usbhost.chainfire.eu/ (the second cdma_targa in the list) that support usb host (with root): in particular, on "android API" i have claim support = no, classes found = no, device detected = N/A; on "rooted API" i have claim support = yes, device detected = no; on "kernel" i have claims support = yes, device detected = no; finally, i have 2 no on verdict. As i said, i haven't a usb otg cable, so i tested the device without any usb host device connected. So this is my doubt: i don't know if the "device detected = no" i have on rooted API and kernel is due to the lack of the usb host capabilities or to the lack of a connected device. So, what i'm asking is if someone that own a usb otg cable could try to test his defy and post the results. Thank you very much!
ps: i'm running cm7.1.0-11 by quarx, oh and sorry for my bad english, i hope you understood me
Defy is capable... but kernel lacks the modules...
Quarx compiled some modules...
I'm gonna pick up otg cable and make my own changes...

Great! I didn't know it! And how could i integrate the modules quarx wrote into my kernel? Anyway, sorry viper, i hadn't find that topic
Edit: but, if i got "claims support = yes" on "kernel", should it imply that i already have those modules, shouldn't it? I was thinking that i have a quarx's kernel (cm7) so maybe the modules are already included.

Hi,
I have StickMount app to mount USB drives to my flo.
But I have WD Elements 2,5" 1TB USB 3 NTFS disk. When I connect it, it just flashes but is not mounted.
Can someone tell me how can I mount it?
If I need to use other kernel, then please point me to some good
But I need kernel with kexec-hardboot patch for MultiRom.
Thank you.

Are you using a powered USB hub? The Nexus probably doesn't put out enough juice to power a hard drive.

It is possible...
I use only ordinary OTG cable...
So I will try to search some powered OTG cable...
Thank you again @meekrawb

poor nexus 7 cannot provide that amount of juice for ext HDs
I have the same HDD and it works fine. I installed the ElementalX kernel, which provides NTFS support, and used Paragon NTFS to mount the HDD (available on the play store). I have a different problem myself: As soon as the device is locked, whatever is being streamed/accessed from the HDD is no longer accessible and the HDD has to be disconnected, reconnected and remounted.
My computer doesn't at all acknowledge my S3 when I plug it in to a USB port. I have used different cables, Don't have access to other computers to attempt, and it doesn't show my nexus 7 2013 either. It is getting quite irritating, as my SD card won't mount either. It used to work flawlessly but now I have no luck whatsoever. It doesn't even have a hint of existence in Device Manager. It doesn't charge from my laptop either.
I am running CarbonROM with BMS Kernel, have researched, and found no potential fixes that have worked for me. I am open to almost everything, even a full return to stock with Odin. Any help will be very much appreciated.
EDIT: Please PM me or quote me so that I immediately know when someone responds.
Thanks

Ok? Noob question, do the drivers deal with the hardware or software of my phone? If it is the software, it wouldn't work would it? Thanks.
Technically the only hardware is the port on the phone. If that's not working then it never will. Considering that it charges I would go to a TouchWiz ROM and see if the problem is your ROM.

Thank you very much.

If you have fast charge enabled in KTweaker you have to turn it off to connect to PC.

The cable may be damaged, have you tried a different one? Different port on the PC? Rebooting both devices?
I have tried two other cords and multiple reboots. Even tried another vista desktop.

Ya... but my original rom got erased so I downloaded a rooted stock rom nd8. I could not find stock oh1 rom. It still did not connect
usb. Would the boot version make any difference?
That would mean the USB connection is fried. No, that wouldn't make a difference.

Unfortunately not without replacing the port. Sometimes if you jiggle the cord you can get it to connect.... My S2 I have to prop something under the cord to get it to charge and connect via USB. Sometimes the port is just loose.
Few days ago while I was using my phone touchscreen suddenly stopped responding. Not whole touchscreen, approximately 15% is still working. Problem is I cant enter my phone and I was on airplane mode when it happened so I am unable to use samsung find my phone to enter it. Is there any way I can enter the phone without erasing my data, or just download photos and music I have on it? Usb debugging is not turned on.
use mouse or keyboard and enable adb over wifi. then use scrcpy.

How do I enable adb? And also, will this require turning on usb debugging on my phone?

This asks for me being connected to wifi on my phone, which I am not and also finding my phones ip adress which I cant because I dont have acces to it
that's why you should use mouse or keyboard

Yes but me using mouse (according to the links you sent me) requires me allowing usb debugging on my phone which i can't do because I cant enter it..
no, using mouse or keyboard does not require usb-debugging (or any touch input) at all. it is connected via usb.
However, you can use mouse or keyboard to enable usb-debugging (aka adb) and run scrcpy over adb over wifi, then finally connect usb cable to PC for file copying.
