try plugging in a USB keyboard, backup your data to an external drive and do a factory reset

3.2 does not support USB thumb/flash drive

I just updated my US Xoom WiFi to 3.2. The SD card is working fine and it is shown under mnt\external1. However, I still cannot access my USB thumb/flash drive even I have a Motorola OTG adapter. Looks like 3.2 does not support USB thumb/flash drive. Any suggestions? Or I have to root it and install a custom kernel to make it work? Thanks.
I'm wondering the same thing. Will have to flash another kernel...
Who uses thumbdrives and USB discs these days anyway?
Uhm, everyone?
USB thumb drives and external drives are supported fine on 3.2, download USB Mass Storage Watcher OTG from Market
follow the quick guide and all works great.

I understand, but I mean on stock 3.2 without root, which the OTG app needs.
Or did you got it working without root?
my xoom is rooted, i am not sure of any USB OTG apps that work without root. I will do some research.
After updating to 3.2 with root, I tried USB Mass Storage Watcher OTG and first it complained about an old version of busybox , then after it updated busybox, it would just FC when I plugged in a flash drive.
I wonder what is the reason that 3.2 still does not support USB mass storage. I wish this will be addressed soon.
If it is any consolation to you, my 3g Telstra xoom on 3.1 with sd card support and usb enabled still doesn't work unless i have an OTG cable and USB Mass Storage Watcher OTG. Usb works fine for mice etc without usb mass storage watcher.

Trouble getting USB host to work

I have already read through 40+ pages of verygreen's thread and purchased the microUSB to USB Female adapter he mentioned (bought the one he posted a link to) and yet i for the life of me cannot get my nook color to recognize any usb devices. I have the latest version of Nook Tweaks (1.4.3) and i have CM7 nightly 7-30-2011 which i was told already has the kernel required to enable usb host.
I have tried every combination possible using 5 different usb drives, 2 different usb keyboards, and a charged and uncharged usb hub but no luck. I am continually pressing refresh under the usb host settings in Nook Tweaks but the folder named usbdisk remains empty. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Try the following in this order, set up your hub with the device you want to connect, get your cables set up to connect to the nook (do not connect yet), to to nook tweeness and turn on USB hosting, now connect the cable to the nook. Wait and allow the nook to detect the device (you should see a nook tweek icon in the messenger tray. Now go to root explorer and go to /mnt, then go to /usbdisk. You should be able to access flash drives or SD cards there.

@OP,
I don't remember who but most likely Moshe, had told us that you need a powered USB hub to work with. USB thumbdrive alone, may NOT work.
Some flash drives may work through an unpowered hub but I have found that a powered hub works best. I have found that the trick for me is to set everything up first and turn on host mode before I connect the cable to the nook. As soon as I connect the cable, the flash drive lights up and the nook checks the disk for errors then mounts it. Then use root explorer to go to /mnt and go to /usbdisk iff you have mounted the device, you will be able to perform operations there. Always ensure you go to mounts and storage and unmount the drive before you remove it. Doing otherwise can result in damage to the file system on the disk and make the contents unreadable.
Feel to PM me if you have any problems or issues I can help you with. The process is not too difficult but there are a few quirks to the system.

I did a wipe and flashed the latest nightly and now some devices work. Both the charged and uncharged hub work. Only one of my usb drives worked plugged directly into the nook but all of them work when combined with the hub.

I have only found 1 flash drive (a PNY 4 GB micro) that would work plugged directly into the nook with the adapter. I believe flash drives draw too much power at least more than can be supplied thru the usb port. That is why I prefer to use a powered hub. An unpowered hub will mask the excessive power requirements at times and allow some devices to work but a powered hub provides all the power you need to use almost any usb device you can think of. The only device I have been unable to use thus far is a webcam. The nook recognizes it and assigns an device ID to the cam but the cm7 kernel does not seem to know what to do with the cam. None of the web chat programs have worked (yahoo msg, tango, fringe,ooVoo, ect.

upgrading kernel worked for me
I was running cm_encore_full-155.zip and had no luck getting an external usb disk recognized and mounted. Also, when plugging in my powered hub, everything went kinda wonky, especially the virtual keyboard in terminal emulator.
Per this thread, I tried upgrading the kernel and it started working. Hours of frustration finally gone! (upgraded to cm_encore_full-176.zip from http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=encore for reference)
To upgrade, I followed the instructions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957
The "How to update to a new build:" section, then the part about how to boot into recovery mode (I used the "hold down the "n" button while powering on method, and the installer took care of the rest)
I've only tried with a powered hub and SD reader so far, but at least it worked. Now to find the other hardware combinations that work...

[Q] OTG storage damaged after 4.4.2 update. Any fix please?

Hey,
After I updated to latest kitkat NB2, my OTG storage stops working. It was workinf fine before update. And other functions still work fine like printer, USB headset mouse etc.
But only USB flash drives stop working. I get error message. SD card damaged try to format it. It even doesn't show up anywhere in any file manager how can I format lol. Same sticks work fine on my tab 3 10.
I use stickmount by chainfire. Everything stock and rooted.
Couln't find a fix for Note 3 by searching its forums.
Is this OS related bug or removed by samsung? Any kernels out there that have it back? Very important for me as my win 8.1 hates my Note 3 via cable. I always get pop up windows that I must close for hundred of times if device is connected for a while, manuelly.
Thank you

It is probably related to the new 4.4 security restrictions on storage, and maybe some of the solutions for that will fix this one too (I believe now there is also an xposed module).
Sd card fix didn't help OTG cable storage problem.
Is the module for SD card?
No one?
Till date i am also facing this issue. Though i can read the OTG from ES Explorer but it is readonly & unable to copy data to the OTG.
It's a shame. I bought my GN3 for OTG feature as a reason. Samsung should have kept this feature.

USB OTG cable pen drive problem

Before I updated to lollipop USB OTG cable was working fine. "USB Connector Connected" show up and then pen drive get mounted and file manager show up.
Now When connecting OTG cable with a usb pen drive, on statusbar "USB Connector Connected" show up. Then nothing comes up.
But when I connect a mouse or/& keyboard it works fine.
I tried the same cable & pen drives on other devices (galaxy S5, Note 2, note 10.1) and it works.
My Device: SM-N9005
Rom right now: audax BOA5
(I updated to leak lollipop first time using ALEXNDR description
With bootloader, modem & Persist partition update).
I have tried different roms, downgraded to kikat & stock roms.
I have tried:
Stock Kernel
Custom kernel
NTFS Mounter
USB OTG Helper
USB sticks of the following configuration
1GB Kingston in FAT32
4GB SanDisk in FAT32
And the problem still the same. No mount and nothing show up in stock file manager or es file explorer.
Any ideas or help are welcome thank you.

Unable to connect via OTG

I've tried a couple of different micro usb OTG cables (from my Note 4) with the usb-c adapter I use with one of my chargers but I can't connect. The menu comes up asking what I want to do with the USB, I've tried MTP once or setting it as always but still nothing. With an NTFS pendrive it came up that the drive was faulty and I needed to reformat, so I figured, ok, it's not gonna work with the drive formatted in that way. But I then tried the micro sd card that was formerly in my V20 and is still formatted to FAT32 and all that happens is it connects and then ejects the drive. When I look on ES File Explorer, a drive shows up but I can't access it. The usb message continually comes up, moments after whatever I select.
I've tried reading up on this issue and the first thing people suggest is to change the otg cable (or go for a dedicated usb-c) but I've rarely seen that as a solution for this issue.
My H910 is fully stock, no root and running nougat.
