I use the samsung usb connector together with an Elago nano2 microsd reader and stickmount for my samsung 32 gb class 10 microsd. Bought it all on Amazon and it works great! My recommendation is to not cheap out on the memory card, because the first one I bought (KOMPUTERBAY 32GB Class 10 MicroSDHC) was dead on arrival.

Will soon create a thread on my project of retrofitting the elago nano2 with a microusb connector, so that you no longer need to carry around the usb connector cable..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deleted member 2842059:
What would really be neat would be an all in one cable. USB 3.0 for flash drives, socket to plug into USB 3.0 and a card reader. It would be chunky but everything you need is right there...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -V-O-Y-A-G-E-R-:
Pardon me for droppingin on an ended discussion, but after purchasing a dead OTG cable, a month later a new one arived and I had some problems mounting a thumb drive util I found this thread :)

I've heard of StickMount befire, but I guess I just forgot that I need it on GNE.

Now another problem arose. I properly unmount the USB drive, StickMount reports that there are no more mounted points, and my USB drive LED starts pulsating steadily, bu t after I unplug the cable/USB the system reports

"Removed USB storage.

USB storage removed. Insert new media."

My system continues working normally, but Instagram, for example cannot capture photos, as it complains about missing storage, or even worse, my gallery is full ofdead links/photos left after I ejected the USB drive.

Anyone had the same problems? How did you solve it? Reboting every time is the last resort.

Or does this only with a card reader?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] user_error:
Anyone tried using a powered hub that sends power up stream (or using a Y connector to send power to the phone) while also mounting a drive or using a keyboard or something?

Curious if someone has tried this yet. I am presuming it SHOULD work and charge the phone while in host mode but who knows until its tried out I suppose.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lord_pom:
Today, finally, the OTG cable has arrived. With StickMount 1.3 I was able to connect my Canon S95. It automatically starts the gallery, but does not import. "Import Failed". Unfortunately, I do not find out where the camera is mounted, otherwise I could copy the images using the File Manager.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3devious:
Can you use Stickmount with the stock kernel but rooted or do you need one of the ROMs?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Yes, it works fine with a stock kernel. Root is required of course.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I solved the problem. CM9 is not working properly. After reinstalling everything goes. With stock Android without root, it also works. The laptop can also stay at home for the holidays:cool:

You just have to try, if it doesn't work most USB hard drives have possibility to connection external power.

Do I need a OTG cable ?? Or can i just plug it to the phone directly ?

Edit: nvm dumb question. Both phone and hdd are female.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Michealtbh:
You'll need an adapter as your phone doesn't have a full size USB port

Can someone please link:

My OTG works with almost everything works, but the USB Storage not works. help?:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mortenmhp:
Well USB OTG works out of the box on android 4+, however, the system does not detect and mount USB mass storage devices automatically.(you need root and an app like stickmount to do this)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
USB Mass Storage mode is not supported on the GNex.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] el_charlie:
Now that this thead is alive I'd like to share some experience with USB OTG.

I bought a cheap cable and everything works, even NTFS!!! But you'll need the NTFS Mounter app from the Play Store. You need to run the app once (it asks for Root access) and the you can uninstall it. The app is needed because it copies the NTFS-3G binary to /system and then StickMounts does the job.

I also tried a 2.5 external hard drive and obviously it doesn't deliver the power requiered, but with a Y cable you can use it. My hard drive hast two partitions (a big NTFS and a smaller FAT32) and my GNex reads both.

As for auxiliar power I found this adaptor in amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Note-...qid=1344266741&sr=8-25&keywords=usb+otg+i9100

I can see it still has microUSB connector so you can charge the phone while using the host mode. But I'd like to point out that this rigid adapter could break the microUSB port if you accidentally punch it. Except that, I think it's very functional.

Cheers!

USB Mass Storage mode works fine with cm10 nighties on GNex without any modification or app installation, but hd playback from a 16G USB stick is choppy and slow
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
You're confusing USB Mass Storage with USB Host. They are different. The GNex does NOT support USB Mass Storage, but dies support USB Host.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] W@$#eR:
Doesnt Work for me

I am using the stock rom Rooted. I have tried to connect 2 mouse 1 keyboard and a joypad .. none work .. they dont show up on the USB host controller app as well...

So Where is the problem ???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
So as a memory stick user what does the difference mean? Does it mean that it needs stickmount in leu of native support? Lower performance?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
They are completely unrelated. To put it in layman's terns, USB Host relates to plugging things into your device (like keyboards, mice, etc.), while USB Mass Storage relates to plugging your phone to a computer so that the computer sees the phones storage as a drive.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
Ok, so people were basically just using the wrong terminology altogether. So the reason some versions of JB need stickmount and others don't is just a matter of built-in driver support?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poochie2:
Is it normal that making a nandroid backup won't backup the .android_secure folder on my EXTERNAL SD card? I guess it looks for it in the internal one and then just skips it but I see no option for choosing where to place it and I guess CWM Recovery should know where it can be on a I9100.. or am I wrong?

Following on the success of the app in Brazil, I created a version for the USA.

PROMOSSAURO is the intelligent daily deals tracker.

Gathering deals from various group buying sites in USA, allows for various methods of ordering and filters, as to ease the search of the desired deals.

Besides the basic information, like price and discount, the application catches the sold amount, and calculates the sales per hour of each deal.

These are some of the available features:

- Totally free and ad-free;

- Ordering: start date, expiry, title, category, sold, sold per hour, price and discount;

- Categorization with filters;

- Favorite marking;

- Multiple city selection;

- Read deals control, with filter and visual indicators;

- Sending deals by e-mail or other Android-supported methods;

- Keyword search;

- Automatic download scheduling;

- Deals in map (for deals that provide geolocation);

- Direct link to the deal and the deal target;

- City list is imported directly from sites, so all available cities should be supported (currencly 88 cities);

- Category of interest selection, so unwanted categories aren't even downloaded, saving network bandwidth;

- Tablet-optimized layout available;

Deals from Groupon, Living Social, EverSave, and others, all together in a single place.

More sites are added frequently.

New users can't post links, search in market for "PROMOSSAURO".

I really like the B&N stock reader and library. I know right now CM7 is only internal and bootable SD cards will come later. So the question is if we can make and SD card to run CM7 can't we do the same thing to the stock ROM? I'd rather run CM7 internal and use my tablet as a tablet and then when I want to use it as a Nook pop in a stock ROM SD and read.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] joecareytm:
I know they said they were working on a bootable CM7 from a SD Card and you could pick to boot either stock or CM7. And by all means I am not a programmer or even try to pretend to be but couldnt you take the stock ROM and make an image on an SD and just have it boot that as the operating system?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lavero.burgos:
basically yes but other files are needed in order to do so, Adam found a way and got ubuntu booting from sd, but i think noone has tried to replace those images with stock, it is not that simple though. But if you want to get adventurious try it out and let us know :D.

Unfortunately is a bit complex and takes some work to create, you will need a linux distro like Ubuntu too.

This kind of projects is fun for me so i'll take it like that.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lavero.burgos:
UPDATE: ok i did my tests and first let me explain how i had my sdcard setup:

boot 50mb FAT32 primary partition ACTIVE

system 600mb ext4 primary

data 1.35gb ext4 logical

so obviously on windows only the first partition 50mb will be seen then i placed the files:

boot.img

flashing_boot.img

MLO

u-boot.ini

The above are the necessary files for sdcard to boot into the "boot.img" we put it, apart of the previously important step of make the boot partition ACTIVE.

Now i have played with the boot.img files i have but first i made sure my NT could boot from sdcard by placing the boot.img containing CWM posted by Goncezilla and it worked so i proceed.

* First time i placed the boot.img from the AdamOutler's acclaim_update.zip with no go it booted straight to CM7 (current flashed ROM)

* Second try i placed the boot.img from one of my clean stock backups it booted but all i got was the box with the white background, stayed there for a minute or so and then rebooted, black N screen then the box again (bootloop). Turned off.

That is all my test so far, is bed time now. Nite

ZZZzzzzzZZZ

PS: what im trying to show is that we need a modified boot image capable to boot fine and read the other partitions that have been set.Im not a dev but i use my logic, please correct me if im wrong.

UPDATE: After search in development forum for tools and guides to work with a boot image for the nook tablet (as i found out the guide i made long time ago won't apply for this device as it is totally different) i have found a thread created by AdamOutler here where he post a "tool", an image to create a bootable sdcard with the basics, he also state you can create your own custom sdcard but for that you need to have some knowledge with Linux-Ubuntu in this case.

Problem: Wifi does not work but i think if a dev would be interested i think this could be worked out and solved.

For now i can't even try this with modifications for my own because i dont have yet a higher size/class sdcard as i use my internal sd partitioned to 11GB and i stream/ftp the rest of my media/files so :rolleyes:...

Hello,

first of all im using MiniCM7 2.1.9 with nAa-Kernel 11. I am on a "clean" install, meaning i made a factory reset before installing. But now i am having a strange issue:

Apps like Battery Indicator dont start up after rebooting, same with 3G watch dog. Reinstalling the apps does not solve the problem.

Any ideas? I dont want to reflash all again, because i am using quiet a lot of apps which i need and it would be really annoying to reinstall all of them.

You might have to suck it up and buy tibu add well. I had bought system tuner pro (which is good) after getting on here I realized that I should get tibu.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a_fuegon:
That means there is a problem with your sd card. The error message isn't very detailed, but that's what it is, short of your sd card being full.

The program needs cache space to unzip the backup and such.

I have used my backup pro over tibu and wouldn't change that. My backup pro freezes apps, backs up apks and data either separately or in one shot and also backs up favs,mms/sms, calendar, etc....

The only thing I use tibu for is to remove system apps.

SO..

Just received my Prime from Bestbuy.ca on Friday

Updated to .14

Prime not rooted yet.

Light bleed yes.. minor only.. visible on boot. But on normal use of the tablet and watching movie not noticeable.

Wifi Range is good. Even from 10 feet no issue. I still have the linksys WRT54G router. I can afford a Prime but not upgrade to a Router N. lol

GPS is good. The test screenshot is from outdoor. Sorry I don't test indoor and Outside GPS makes sense than indoor GPS. Why would I want to use GPS inside my house or in a building. Anywho i got the tablet not for GPS purpose. I just ran the test just for show.

Tether is good. Cell phone Tether via wifi is good. Cell Phone Bluetooth Wifi is good. Yes also watching streamed videos on tether. Only lag if I use forward and rewind. Pause is ok it resumes fine. Tether is using Iphone via wireless or Bluetooth.

VPN connection and 2X is good. I use a lot for work.

Email exchange is good. Synch fine.

Watching movie is good and Music. Impressed on the speakers.

I will try Netflix soon.

Polaris Office its ok.

Google Talk works well.

I just need a good case. There are some good case in Amazon but they do not ship to Canada.
