After getting frustrated with the USB port and file transfers on my new TPT I found this app designed for the Nexus 7. It works a treat on my TPT and I can stream directly from the USB stick.

I'm not involved with the developer at all, just found it has transformed my pad and made it much user friendly.

what are some things you guys do with the xoom that makes you happy that you spent 600 $ on it
Get an OTG cable and a USB controller and play some emulators. You can also try and load Ubuntu on it.
Get a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse and an HDMI cable. Hook the xoom up to the TV and browse the web or play games. Download a remote desktop client and access your computer from anywhere. Just a few things.

This, along with Drop Box and a word processing app, can allow the Xoom to replace your laptop entirely. As stated, a bluetooth keyboard and mouse will make such tasks easy.
I currently have control of seven computers, my website, and I'm working on my pc controlled entertainment system. I also have surveillance cameras tied to my desktop, which I can monitor using my Xoom from anywhere. I'll be upgrading to x & z motion control this summer.
Make an otg cable. Use USB devices.

Okay so my main reasoning to purchasing this tablet was primarily based on the fact you can view pdf's for school like books and such...
Which brings me to the question of?...
Wireless Flash Drive?
Now i want to be able to wireless sync the tablet as a flash drive and transfer files for school instead of carrying around a flash drive is this possible by any means??... (Needs to be MAC compatible or no to little software towards the computer because i do not have Administrator Access on the computer side..)
Wireless streaming Solutions?
okay so i figured out a way to browse the files on my computer using my tablet using an application called File Manager but how do i stream video and music from my tablet the opposite way? (use my computers monitor and speakers wirelessly from the tablet?)
this might be what you are searching... make use of allshare...

BubbleUPnP will probably do the trick, assuming you have a client on the computer that supports DLNA/UPnP streaming.

Use "VLC Direct" you can stream music and video both ways... tablet to computer, or computer to tablet. Its not on the market right now, it got kicked off when google messed up there market and everyone accounts. go to vlcdirect.com, you should be able to download it from there and read about how to use it. Its a great app I use it daily
You do need the pro version to use all of the features

I couldn't get bubble upnp or skifta to work properly remotely. Try subsonic, it is java based and set up through a browser, so I think it should be Mac compatible. Works great to stream music and video to Android devices over 3g. As far as the files, maybe look into setting up a ftp server or just use dropbox

Have any of you guys checked this application out?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...mNvbS5ob21leXNvZnQubmV4dXN1c2IuaW1wb3J0ZXIiXQ..
It does not require root and you can import off a SD card, flash drive, and external hard drive. It's a really smooth interface. I'm not the developer or anything but I made a video review of the application.

Nexus Media Importer works on HTC One X+...
Hi everyone,
I just tried Nexus Media Viewer (the free version of Nexus Media Importer) on a new (locked / non-rooted) HTC One X+ from AT&T. Simply amazing!!! I connected 2 completely different MicroSD cards, 8Gb and 16Gb and they worked. I was able to see their contents on my HOX+. I also tried an IBM wired USB mouse and a Logitech M705 wireless mouse (using a USB dongle); they worked flawlessly and I was able to see a cursor, scroll through screens and select using the mice! Awesome work.

Hello
I'm trying to transfer video files to z3 through the bridge software on a macbook but it won't let me transfer certain video files due to support. (surely vlc player will play any video file so long as it's saved on the phone).
Is there a file manager that will just let me copy and paste any file I want, onto the phone?
Bit of a headache not having direct access to copy and pasting files as I see fit :/
If you have access to a windows pc , this can be done without any issues.
Damn, stuck with a macbook. At least it's good to know it's not a problem with a pc
Thank you

I use a program called android file transfer for mac which works 99% of the time. I use this because bridge for Mac is crap
I just bought a RavPower FileHub. (~$50) 6000mah bat (for phone charging too), 128gb micro sd slot, wireless n, usb2 port (works with ANY usb capable drive), as well as an ethernet port. It's basically a wireless NAS. Works with Mac too.
Just make sure you flash it with the correct update. I accidentally flashed the wrong one and had to return mine lol.

I recently put a 3GB mp4 file of a TV show I wanted to watch onto my Nexus 7 2013. Because I couldn't download it straight to my tablet (2GB file size limit) I tried copying it onto a USB stick and transferring it to the Nexus with an OTG cable which worked fine. I watched the show earlier today then deleted the file from my Nexus in windows explorer but this caused the Nexus/explorer to crash.
Now I can't access the tablet through windows explorer anymore. Trying to open it just disconnects it as a USB device. I wondered if deleting such a large file has made problems with the file system on the tablet and windows is struggling to read it? Anyone seen anything like this before or have any suggestions on how to repair it?
