Yes, it is possible but you may need to provide external power to the drive. Use a powered usb hub or something like that. The Nexus 7 most likely won't be able to output enough current to power a spinning drive.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurpter:
Ah ok, so you are saying that you plug the usb host connection from the nexus to the usb hub and plug the hard drive in to another port on the hub?

I just want to know if this works as 16GB isnt much space when you want to take it on a trap to watch films.

Since N7's have been out for a few days, has anyone tried hooking up a portable hdd using a micro otg cable? I could plug my portable Toshiba hdd into my Acer A500 tablet without rooting and it would read the contents of the drive just fine. I would watch movies and view pictures as if it were an sd card. Wondered if the N7 unrooted could do the same?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clockcycle:
No it does not mount the external storage nor does it have an option to do so. You need to root and install chainfire's stickmount app for this to work.

I use a Seagate Wireless Drive

Hi. I decided to use a wireless drive to store all of my music, movies and documents. So, I purchased the Seagate GoFlex Satellite Mobile Wireless Storage. You can use with Android or IOS devices. I love it. :cool:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitbearmi:
Yes, its a no-go out-of-the box connecting to a USB thumb drive or a powered HD with a microUSB OTG cable. This doesn't really surprise me, though, because they would need to dynamically detect the device type and mount it on the system. What I haven't tried is a USB keyboard. Anybody do that?

great thanks for the info. btw is the new one using usb 3.0 or 2.0? do u know if usb 3.0 will work?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garryknight:
I just plugged in a full-sized USB keyboard using my OTG cable and it works fine. I can touch type, use the cursor keys including ctrl+arrows to skip words, bring up menus with the context menu key just to the left of the right-hand ctrl key, etc, etc. I'm sure it must be using up my battery at a faster rate, though.

Edit: It's just occurred to me that there's a problem with using a USB keyboard to type when the N7 is in portrait mode: finding a stand to hold the tablet upright at the right angle when the USB-OTG cable is sticking out of the USB port at the bottom of the tablet.

Mind you, it's great being able to type at full speed without a soft keyboard hiding a large chunk of the screen.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thankyousam:
You can get OTG cables with a right angled micro-USB plug on them, which might help your stand problem. I have one on its way as I was concerned about knocking/bending/snapping the straight plug when its sat on my lap in portrait mode.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjupille:
Or, just turn the tablet upside down so the cable is pointing up. The display will rotate appropriately.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bodisson:
Just checked at my SGS2...

IMEI MUST be the same, since it's unique device identifier.

I also have different S/N, but I guess it could be due to different representations (under battery is full alphanumeric serial, and trough phone I see something which looks like hexadecimal)

Hi guys

Just wondering how I should upgrade my note to ICS?

I am currently on the stock AUS GB rom with Hardcore's speedmod kernel k2 12 I have been waiting a while to do the upgrade as I'm a little scared to flash since I heard of the bricking bug. I have downloaded the got brick bug app from chainfire post and i do have the bricking bug hardware in my gnote :(

I have also put off the upgrade as I haven't found a stock AUS ICS rom that is available from sam firmwares or the stock rom post by dr ketan.

I phoned Vodafone today to ask if they have released ICS for the samsung galaxy note and they told me that they have, so any ideas on what I should do?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mR.fR34ky:
download your preferred ics rom, (I prefer kingdroid 4.4 with speedmod k3-7 kernel combo)

put the rom and the kernel to your sd card.

So you are on gb rom with speedmod. go to recovery, flash jbdroid kernel cleaning script after that do a factry reset ( you do no need to wipecaceh and dalvik coz' jbdroid kernel cleaning scrip does it )

afeter facory reset install the rom, install jbdroid kernel cleaning script and install the preferred ics kernel and reboot.

while you are on ics and want to wipe I HIGHLY prefer to you flash abyss 4.2 touch recovery and wipe there!!!

I'm a beginner, i recently asked how to install the ics leak, apparently it's seem easy, one click but i was advise to root and install cwm...

so what exactly is CWM?

can anyone give me the following guides? with the most dumbed down instruction? (like button to press, where to activate things etc.)

How to root lg android?

brief explanation of what is cwm

how to install custom rom?

- while you explain, can you explain the concept of the phone? like recovery mode does this, debugging does that.

I used to be a iphone pro, but android, i'm a noob xD .
[LG Nitro HD] rani9990:
To root, download superoneclick v2.3.2 on your computer. NOT 2.3.3 as it doesn't work. Launch it and click root. If it doesn't work the first time, keep trying. It'll work eventually. Clockwork mod is a recovery mode. In your android You download rom manager in the play store, then click on it. Click flash clockwork mod recovery inside the app. It'll give u a list of devices. Select att nitro HD. Then download ho!no!s cwm flash able leak, (its in the android development section. Download that and go back to rom manager. REMEMBER YOU DO ALL THIS IN YOUR ANDROID XCEPT FOR ROOTING WITH SUPERONECLICK. Click reboot into recovery. Click on backup and restore. Click backup in that. Wait till its done. Then go back to the main menu in cwm. Click wipe data/factory reset. Then click yes. Then when its done go and click advanced. Click wipe dalvik cache. Click yes. Then press the back button. Then go to install zip from sdcard. Click choose zip from sdcard. Then click Download.locate the zip you downloaded earlier, it should be in there. Click yes. When its done, go back to the main menu and click reboot system now. Voila, you're done. Phew this took a while.

[LG Nitro HD] dustin4vn:
awesome :P made it pretty clear xD. btw, let me make it into list so i can see which i'm not as quite clear, :P

1. Install superoneclick v2.3.2 precise. (did this on my skyrocket, but i'm just afraid diff android system have different way)

2. Download ROM manager, and flash clockwork mod within the app (okay, is the CWM is inside the app? or do i download it external, if so where)

3. Download Ho!no!s cwm, umh link please? xD and do i download it straight on the phone? or do I put dl it on pc, n put it on phone, if so, what is the directory i should put it in.

4. in rom manager, go to recovery (reboot)

5. click backup and restore - then back up

6. then go back out and click wipe data/factory reset-yes

7. click advanced

8. wipe dalvik cache -yes

9. then back button

10. then go to install zip from sd card (which .zip file?)

11. go back out and reboot system.

plz spend sometime and help me :) thank you

yes that does took a while. :P
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
Make sure you know where your .zip file is downloaded. You'll need to know where to find it while you're in CWM looking to "install .zip from SD card".

I'm still a noob as well. I've only flashed one rom so far, but I hope I've steered you in the right direction. My suggestions are what worked for me with my rom so you should be fine. If anyone sees errors in my advice please post so that we will all know.
[LG Nitro HD] dustin4vn:
well awesome man! thank you for making it bold and everything, really helpful. pretty much got everything sorted out now. the concept is pretty easy xD Much less hassle than iphone. btw, after flashing the cwm... how do you flash custom rom? xD lol. and which rom do you recommend? hono full throttle? seem like it got pretty good reviews.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
Well I don't know if it's called "flashing" for CWM. It's more installing CWM with the ROM Manager app. Then once you've backed up your stock setup you can "flash" whichever rom zip you want to use.

I'm using CM9 RC1 because it had reviews of it being stable with everything working. I'm so new to this that I am hesitant to try all of the other roms that have bugs. I'll try one eventually though.

Hopefully you get a custom rom running today. :good:

Yes, follow the instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1671050

You only have to do this once for each computer you want to use USB mass storage on. It still sucks if you want to use it for USB mass storage on other computers, but if you only use it on one or two computers it's fine.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] noodles2224:
I think extension of your ringtones have to be .ogg and then change permissions as usual with a root explorer app..

XX

X

like that. BUT I'm not quite sure if that's all that is needed.

And, I have tried putting them in as just .mp3 or .wav but they dont show up. SO, Im guessing it has to be .ogg
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Towle:
You need to set r/w with a file manager that has root access.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DIMENSIONAL:
If you mean copy your ringtones to your system file ( so they work even with USB storage connected ), I actually did that recently; here's some things that might help:

1. For some reason, some apps have trouble making the system R/W, so if one doesn't work, try another one. Root Explorer and FX Explorer always seem to work flawlessly for me, but YMMV. Also, like it's been said, make sure you have system mounted as R/W; some apps might make it seem like it's mounted R/W when it's not.

2. MP3s should be fine, and I believe WAV files worked for me too.

3. This one took me a while to figure out; after copying the files, you have to reboot for them to show up when you're selecting tones.

Anyways, hope that helps. ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rastlin:
cannot change frikin permissions

i have used both root explorer and FX explorer (and i prefer the latter of the two) but when i try to change the permissions it basically say "FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU" even though i do have root i am not too sure why i cannot change the permissions of subdirectories? I know in windows you can make the subdirectories inherent the atributes of the parent directory but unfortunately my lack of linux/unix experience is abundantly apparent. Is there away to force the subdirectories to inherent the attributes of the parent directory, or am i just a dumbass barking up the wrong tree.. OH!, and yes just to state the obvious yes i am rooted....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DIMENSIONAL:
Unfortunately, I'm not sure how much more I can help then. :( Here's a few things though:

I know that you need to download some kind of additional app from the developer to enable root features in FX Explorer, and I think you might have to enable something in the settings.

When I'm using the app, system R/W seems to apply to the entire /system directory, so it affects the parent directories of the sub-directories that I trigger R/W in.

From what I've read, some people have issues with SuperUser functions working, even when they're rooted, so maybe it's your SU that's causing the issues? I'm not sure what the solution is, but I know people have posted various methods that might work in the forums.
