[Completed] Computer (Windows, if possible) as a USB drive? - XDA Assist

Well, this may be a confusing, strange and questionable question. I know it!
Is there any software for Windows or Linux to emulate a USB device? So when plugging the mobil to the computer, instead of having the Android in the PC, we have a virtual unit as if a usb pen (via OTG) would be?
The idea is to make the connection process backwards. It's possible?
Thank you very much to all!

Hi !
I don`t think it is working this way, first the pc Will recognize it as an android android device and then it will trigger the requested connection ,MTP , PTP , MIDI or charging only
The internal storage to be visible it is controlled by Android
Cheers

i cant even access recovery.
i got my tf today from lab. they replaced my mobo.
and now when itry to access recovery it's just giving me a big green android with a ! inside.
so i thought. is it possible that the problem is with my usb cable?
and that i'll have to buy a new one just to confirm it?
1.) What are your computer's specifications? (OS, hardware, etc.)
2.) When the Transformer is booted into Android and you connect the USB cale from the tablet to your computer, does your computer make any sort of indication that a new device has been plugged in? (In Windows, for example, you'll get the new hardware sound.)
Hi! I have any problem tooi cant connect my transformer to PC.

Try different USB slot, Try different cable (if you can get one). Try different PC with the same OS (Win7 64-bit).
Try to reinstall Asus Sync, and USB drivers.
If it won't work after you have tried all of these, then I have no idea.
My TF works for me out of the box.

Windows 7 would recognize the TF as a Media device and there in lies the problem. You would have to force the Asus Drivers to take precedence and that is the problem. I am also told you would need the '.Net' framework installed and configured properly - as I had installed this long ago I am not sure whether this is required or not as on my PC I did not face problems due to lack of '.Net'.
On Windows XP I was required to install Windows Media Player 11 and then do some more modifications etc and then install PC Sync software from Asus.
I now have my Windows 7 Ultimate, 64bit working with the TF.
When you connect your Tablet using the Charger cable, does your Tablet say something like 'Searching for PC Sync Software on PC' in the notification area?
Only if it does the TF would even be trying to communicate with the PC - otherwise it would not even be doing that.
I connected my TF to my Windows machine with the sole purpose of rooting the device and I did succeed in doing that.

[Q] How difficult is it to port a USB device with a windows SDK to android?

Assuming I hire the right people, how hard would it be to take a usb device plugged into a tablet running honeycomb (that can accept usb host) and write software/driver for it?
Thanks in advance!

Share USB connection over Wifi/Bluetooth. Possible?

Is there an app/program or is it otherwise possible to share a usb device plugged into an android phone with a desktop computer, or vice versa over wifi or bluetooth. For example plugging a DSLR into my android phone and having it show up on the desktop computer as if it were connected via usb. There would be a ton of uses for this if it is possible. It would change your phone into a sort of wireless USB port.
there is software USB Network Gate with Win and Linux versions which probably could help you, but I don't know if it will work with Android...
I had run into USB Network Gate in my search for something similar for android. Seems like a great tool. If only it were able to run on android and was a bit cheaper.
Anyone know of something like this that will run on android?

Android to Android MTP/PTP & USB OTG

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!

[Q] Acer Iconia Tab A510 not recognized/detected by a pc

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?
