Does anyone have ptp working on your xoom?
I'm on 3.1 launchpad 1.2.2 kernel but ptp doesn't seem to be working. I plug in my iPhone and it only charges... I do the same on my pc and it see the iPhone as a camera.

wifi xoom running 3.1 (non-rooted)
I bought the Motorola Camera Connection Kit (OTG Cable), connected my digital camera and it worked perfect. However, I'm trying to see if i can plug in a usb thumb drive... but I can't get it to work? Do I need to do anything special to mount it? What filesystem would it mount as?
Thanks in advance
I may be wrong on this but I didn't think 3.1 stock had flash drive access...?
maybe I'm confused too then? I thought 3.1 added usb host support...
only for cameras, video game controllers, mouse and keyboard.
ahh, that explains it... thanks!
Is it using the camera protocol? My cameras have always shown up as mass storage on my computers. I haven't tried a camera on my xoom yet.
i just tried with my camera. it still won't work. guess we have to mount the drive.

got my Camera to work with Xoom. Just set the camera USB setting to MTP/PTP mode.
It cannot recognize raw image files.
works with my canon 5d m2 instantly without any setting changes
Anyone have a flip camcorder who could test that out?
Edit: I went and bought the camera connection kit. Was able to get videos off my flip by navigating to /mnt/usbOTG (with the flip attached obviously). I'm rooted and using the latest Tiamat kernel though. US WiFi model.
Hi all
I would like to connect my canon a470 powershot to my
Wifi only xoom, running tiamat 1.4.4 and honeycomb,
through an otg cable.the cable works and I can access USB
pens reading the content.Now as my camera does not
provide usb mass storage access but only mtp/ptp I cannot
manage to access photos directly plugging the USB cable.
I read that Verizon camera kit cable supports ptp on
Honeycomb systems but how? Is there any app or .ko
needed or is a compatibility issue related to my camera?
Thanks

I have the Motorola Xoom "camera " otg host cable. That's all the "kit " contains. I'm running the Tiamat ROM and I can not access my Canon Powershot either. So, if you have a working otg host cable, don't waste your money....
really ? nothing more than a simple OTG cable ? Thanks for the advice ! How is it supposed to work on stock ROM's if UMS is disabled ?
I 'm sure that there must a library for ptp/mtp on android: I read that some people had this feature working, being able to access photos (stored on the camera) through the stock gallery app.
Maybe the OTG cable is not enough...
Could be the camera brand. I have no idea though. I don't need to connect any of my cameras to my xoom.
Bumpity bump
Any resolution to this?
I have USB sticks working too but not ptp supported devices...
I'm having the same problem with my Canon 5D. Also tried Canon Ixus 130 and that didn't work either. I just tried installing the stock Australian image and then installing the 3.1 update and that does not work either... I asked around and found people that also had a canon 5D and Xoom and the combo worked for them.
that is so weird
I wish someone can shed some light on this...is this inherent with 3.1?
Do not know will this help in any meaningful way but did anyone tried connecting A470 running chdk? I do not have Xoom but there exist plethora of scripts for canon low end cameras making them just a little bit more useful. Higher end cameras have another way of enhancement with different program setting. Just my to cents...
recently i tried to connect my nikon D7000 to my xoom, but it just couldn't recognize the camera. the camera can be read by my laptop through the same cable and my xoom can mount thumb drivers and hard drivers, which implies that the otg cable and the usb cable are ok. so i searched a lot about the problem. i found that many people faces the same problem. see the following thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1142257
but there is no solution to it.
then i made a test. my mobile phone is nokia n78. it supports both massive storage protocol(is that right?) and picture transfer protocol . when i use the massive storage protocol to connect to my xoom . it works nicely, just like a thumb driver. however ,when i use ptp to connect my xoom, nothing happens to my xoom(just the same as my d7000). so i doubt whether there is some problems with ptp?
i also found that many people can connect their dslr to xoom

so maybe the problem exists in the rom ? or the kernel? or i need some drivers?
does anyone know how to solve the problem? or it is a known bug of tiamat rom?
anyone can help ?
Hi,
is there any update on this issue?
I have a Xoom running the UMTS_everest Nightly Build 45 of Team EOS.
I have no problem connecting USB devices to my tablet, but when I connect a camera in PTP mode to my tablet, nothing happens.

Hello,
how can I share files between two android devices using USB OTG and PTP or MTP protocols? Or even better, between camera (PTP) and Android device (camera is detected correctly by phone and reacts on USB connection).
I know that Android can act as MTP or PTP slave. I want it to act as master.
Any ideas?
--
Just to be clear -- I've connected it this way: Android Phone -- USB OTG cable -- USB A-to-miniB -- Camera. Camera supports PTP. I see camera in USB list on phone, and camera notifies me that it is connected to computer, so physical connection is ok, only software on the phone is missing.
Bump!
I am also interested in this. I guess it can be achieved with a linux chroot, but I am looking for a pure android solution. Any ideas are welcome!
So i decided i was going to try O. I went to plug my phone in (still on 7.1.2) but i cant get MTP or PTP to work on 3 different computers, and 3 different USB cables. Windows sees it, while in charging itll bring up the MTP device in explorer, but moving phone to MTP or PTP just makes it disappear.
In TWRP it doesnt bring up at all in windows
Anyone else had this issue?
