I know there is a hack for it to be enabled, and I know that Honeycomb 3.1 has this built-in, but I want to make sure that it comes on the XOOM before I buy it. Meaning, can I get a Micro-USB to USB adapter and use things like USB Mouse and flash drive?
USB host is native to Honeycomb 3.1. You will need a USB host cable or the Motorola camera connection cable. Most adapters do not have all 5 pins wired out to enable host mode recognition from the xoom. But yes, it works out of the box.
It wont work out of the box to read thumb drives. It will read mice cameras keyboards.
You have to root to read external thumb drives and hard drives.
Rooting is on my todo list anyway.
Do USB Hubs work with dock keyboard USB port?
IF I want to plug in an external hard drive for example, IT may need 2 USB ports..
OR if I want to plug in 2 xbox controllers.
Anyone tested this?
Good day to everyone
i have a problem with my acer iconia tab a510.
i can't seem to connect it to my laptop. be it in osx or windows 7.
in windows, there's no notification sound that warns you that it has detected
an unknown device, the sound like when you insert a flashdrive to your pc.
it's like nothing is connected in the first place.
i want to transfer some music from my laptop to it through mass storage mode.
my question is, how can i make it work? how can i connect my tab to my laptop?
do i need a special proprietary usb cord from acer? i'm using an ordinary micro usb 2.0
connector and it's just not working, by the way the shape of the connector of my charger is
different looking than most micro usb 2.0 maybe because it's a proprietary charger.
what do i need to do? buy a new proprietary usb cord? or do i need to flash a stock rom or a custom rom perhaps?
if the latter is the answer, how do i do that, if i can't access my tab's directory without connecting it to my laptop?
Theoretical question:
While in console mode, is it possible to have the following accessories attached at once?
1. Mini hdmi out
2. Usb hub
3. Ethernet
4. External hard drive
5. External power (obviously running through usb hub) or charger
6. Bluetooth controller
Thanks in advance
I have not tried it myself, but it should work, as long as the hard drive works with it at all.
I got:
HDMI
USB mouse
USB keyboard
USB pendrive
via OTG attached at once. Haven't tried USB power and Ethernet cable yet.

Yeah,
I had a USB Type-C Male to USB 3.0 Type-A female adapter. Plugged in a USB 3.0 Toshiba Hard Drive and it worked. Notification popped up and I was able to use it in the built in file manager.
Works very well and is very fast as well.
That's good, official support of otg

Honor 8 supports USB OTG.
Refer the document given for further reference on its usage.

Here are some steps you can take to transfer files from your phone to an external device or microSD.
Connect a USB OTG cable to your phone to access data on USB flash drives, card readers and other storage devices.
- Connect your phone to a USB flash drive with a USB OTG cable.
- Touch [click to enlarge] > Local > USB drive to browse data on the flash drive. You can select and copy data to a destination folder. For more information, see Copying, moving, or deleting files.
- When you have finished browsing, touch Settings > Advanced settings > Memory & storage > USB drive > Eject.
Disconnect the USB OTG cable from your phone and the USB flash drive. (NS)
Stock ROM (not rooted): Huawei built-in Files works very well for OTG USB flash drives. However, if you have X-Plore File Manager installed, do NOT accept the message as shown (see he attached), otherwise USB drive will disappear and neither the Huawei's Files nor X-Plore would be able to access the USB drive. If you ignore that message or "Cancel" it, X-Plore would be able to read USB drive but not write to it.

I wonder if there is any relation between emui5 "android" and the service activation
