Hi all,
I've done a search regarding this and cannot find any relevant posts. My Ouya micro usb port has physically broken and i'm trying to recover my ouya again. I can boot it to recovery screen via usb keyboard but have no way of physically connecting to it since my micro usb port is broken. Would there be any way of connecting a Nexus 7 via OTG cable to the other standard usb port? Or can anyone suggest another method of connecting?
Wireless is out, cannot flash from usb pen drive have I any options left?
Could you somehow do adb over a wired network?

To be clear: I'm not talking about activating USB mass-storage (slave) mode connected to a PC. I'm talking about connection a USB OTG adapter and USB-storage to the phone and storing or fetching data from that in CWM, like ZIPs or backups etc.
Iirc there was a build for the Asus transformer (TF101) which does this. Is there anything remotely similar for the Galaxy Nexus?
I'm running the latest touch-based builds and it only seems able to work with internal storage.
Yes, there is. The SGN can act as an USB host. As I just tried, when an USB-storage is connected to the SGN over OTG cable, then I can see /dev/sda and /dev/sda1 with "cat /proc/partitions" at the terminal.
But, have to do some work else to mount the device automatically when connected.
Note: It is very important to have an OTG cable with pin 4 connected to pin 5 at the mini-USB connector.
I do have all that. I'm talking specifically about using USB OTG while in CWM.
Any (Gnex) builds which allows that yet?
(Thanks for the answer though )
No, you have to make the backup on your phone and manually move them over

Hey guys
So basically I have a Sony Handycam DCR-HC19E camcorder, and was wondering if i plugged it into my galaxy tab using the samsung usb adapter thing, will it recognise it and allow me to take and transfer files to and from the tab?
As i want to upload some videos to youtube but it wont work on my computer?
So im basically asking if anybody has got mass storage access to devices they have plugged into the tab 10.1
Thanks in advance for any help

I have a Sony dcr-sr100. It mounts to my galaxy tab 10.1 on stock firmware.
I have found that " high" powered USB devices are rejected by this tab, which is annoying. But i have found that how you connect the devices matter also.
E.g. if the adaptor is plugged in then i use my USB drive to the adapter is does not work.
If my USB drive is plugged into the adapter then into the tab it usually works, if not pull out and try again right away.
If you can get a powered USB hub, this will help for connecting more devices. Generic keyboard & mice work fine ( if not " high" powered)
USB mass storage otg app in the market will help to mount more drives at once and enable access to NTFS formatted drives which are not supported on the stock firmware.

This is the one I got.

I don't see much point paying more than this.
Also the " card reader" versions are designed to only mount one card at a time since that is how the stock device handles otg. But if you already have USB card reader your happy with, it can be used with USB mass storage OTG app from the market. ( Which also adds NTFS support).

Sprite cheers. I may just get a 3 pound one off Amazon, then see if it works

I got the corded version, as I thought it was more risky using the "Block" style one that might break the connector 30pin if it was knocked too hard.
There is rick of the corded version breaking on the cable, but it is a cheap replacement fix.

Ok, what information do you need?
You have made a statement but not asked a question. Answers to your statement have been covered above also.

Hi,
I just bought an adaptor cable for my n8010 to allow me to connect flash drives and other usb devices. However, every usb device that I have connected (a couple of flash drives and a usb keyboard) seems to have the same issue. Basically, I connect the device and it will continously connect and then a few seconds later disconnect the device. This just keeps looping until I physically disconnect the device.
With the usb keyboard I find that I can actually use the device while it says it is connected. However, I dont seem able to see the usb drives mounted anywhere.
Has anyone managed to get a flash pen and keyboard working using an adaptor cable?
Im using Revolution HD 4.1 if that makes any difference.

Try turning your note off completely, plug in the usb stick and turn on. I had the same problem. In the boot process the note discovered the device and now works fine. After the initial boot with the usb stick it appears to remember it and shows up automatically when I plug it in.

You sir are a GOD AMONG MEN! Ive had my device since Sept 2012 and havent been able to get a USB to work with it....Thanks for the solution, no more having to use FTP or Bluetooth (online solutions) or deal with removing SD cards to Xsfer data.

This seems to be the case for all accessories that use the 30 pin data connecter. I have tried 3 different usb adapters as well as the Samsung keyboard dock. None have any instructions indicating you have to restart the Note but that is what works.
ENJOY!

Is it possible to run a Internet USB Dongle with the original adapter, or with any OTG cable?
I need to have internet connection outside my house, and using an USB Dongle is my only option.
Best regards

I don't believe that's possible; however, you should be able to use your smartphone as a hotspot unless it's prohibited by your mobile provider.
Hi all.
Had this unit for about two weeks. I've read various blogs / posts regarding OTG and I bought two cables from Monoprice. When I tried to connect either the PS3 controller or USB flash drive, the device doesn't recognize it.
I downloaded USB Host Controller and it has a message "S3C USB Host driver NOT found". A lot of sites show connecting a PS3 controller is fairly easy but I can't get this to work.
I'm on 4.3, not rooted. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do. Do I have to root the device to get this to work?
Note no issues with USB charging. When I plug in to a laptop it does show up as a "media device". When I plug in the OTG cable I have no notification message.
I also have a S4, and when I plug in the same OTG cable, I can see a message 'USB connector connected" on notification. But I can't see the same message when i plug in my Nexus 7 2nd Gen.
Is this a common problem? Thanks in advance.
I am use star print and connect to a HP fax combo works fine. Need check USB debug in Dev option s. Noon rooted . also use otg explorer to play movie s I f a San disk 6Gb USB thumb. Both apps are $2.99 but. The lite version work great for testing
