Use Dual Mount SD or Multimount from Marketplace.
Dual Mount SD works perfect!
I use this USB host cable and it works great. Have tested it with my 750gb Oyen and 320gb WD Passport external HDD's, several usb flash drives (8-16gb), San disk USB memory card reader, and a USB keyboard.
For those having issues getting their Xoom to recognize USB storage devices here's what I've got and did to get it to work: I flashed my XOOM (3.1) to the 2.6.36.4 Tiamat_Xoom-v1.4.4-Full_Throttle Kernel and was unable to get the USBMount to recognize drives or storage at first. I installed USB Mass Storage Watcher from the market (it's free) and it works awesome! Can mount any storage I want (NTFS, FAT16/32, HFS, HFS+, EXT2, ETX3, EXT4) with any capacity. I think this app will work with any rooted Xoom (or other devices). Under my Kernel my USB host is located under/usbOTG.
Hope this helps.
Thanks for your post, im having trouble getting my Wifi Xoom usb host to work, i have tried making a cable from the tutorials around here and i have also bought an OTG cable but didn't get any luck having it working, im on HC 3.2 Tiamat 2.1.0 Tachi stock GPU , i tried installing busybox - OTG watcher - Drive Mount etc. and followed all kind of guides in the forum and on google with no luck, i tried usb mice , more than 6 flash drives, usb 3g dongles and other devices without any indication of any kind of connection or powering up, so most probably the problem would be from the cable...as i ordered xoom usb otg cables from ebay and until i receive them i was wondering if there might be anything i was missing?

Sounds like your cable is not OTG. A lot of them are not. Try it again with your Moto cable when it comes. Also, try rebooting with the cable and drive plugged in, with OTG Watcher running. That has worked for me in the past.
Xoom 3G, stock FW 3.2, non rooted and ot cable
So - just installed USB Mass Storage Watcher OTG - https://market.android.com/details?i...tcherotg&hl=pl
Pendrive is recognized by the program immediately and displays the mount point /dev/block/sda - but unfortunately the next value is 0MB. And this is like that on every pendrive. Do I need root to mount it, or do you have any other idea to mount my pendrive without root?

You do need root to mount the drive-to use Xoom in USB Host Mode.
Only root? Is that all that needs to be done?

You need a kernel or rom that supports OTG. Tiamat Odachi kernel, Moray rom, the 4G rom, and the Rogue Rana kernel should all support usb host mode. You will also need a real otg cable and probably an app that helps you mount the drive, such as USB Mount All or Drive Mount.

it works great on rooted stock kernel 3.2 with "Drive Mount" but from the market you can not install "Drive Mount" it says not supported.
If the program is free could someone post the apk?

Just tried with a genuine motorola OTG cable, which works with the same stick because I used it for upgrading my UK one to US ICS 4.0.3, and it doesn't work without rooting. I still can't root mine yet because my micro SD card for backup hasn't come!

You got it to work using that USB adapter? That's not a USB OTG adapter. It really shouldnt work using that one.

Reboot loop after trying to get external USB to work
My Xoom WiFi running Team EOS build 102 would not see my USB drives. I installed 'USB Mass Storage Watcher' from the market. This app then prompted me to install the OTG version. I followed instruction and removed original version before install the OTG version. The OTG version also prompted me to down load another version of Busy Box, which I did.
I could then see one of my USB (see size and space used), but could not see files or folders in the mount location. I restarted my Xoom (I live in a windows world and reboot fixes a lot of issues LOL), Xoom got stuck in reboot loop. I went into recovery mode and clear my Dalvik, but this had no effect on reboot loop.
Luck for me I had a Nandroid backup from 2 days earlier (pheew). Restored this and back to normal.
Not sure if anyone has had this problem, but I strongly recommended making nandroid backup before doing any device driver updates.
No Prob...
im on the same software version as u, i connected usb drives, mouse and keyboard without any problems, just wanted to let u kno
Hello,
I have just installed MIUI.us.ICS-Leo-2.5.25-HWA today. While installing I found that I cannot go to USB storage on SD card through plug in the USB cable.
I am facing this problem from today suddenly. My HTC HD2 USB storage does not connect through USB cable. So I cannot go to SD card storage file. When I connect the USB cable it does not give prompt that "Open USB Storage Now?". If I go to status bar notification to see if the connection made or not and it does not show "USB storage On".
I had to go to recovery mode and then to mount USB storage to install new rom in to the SD card.
Can anyone help me to solve this problem please.

No I did not as the current one is awesome. Do you think changing rom might solve the problem?
ICS Port that you use still doesn't natively support USB Mass Storage.
Use this .apk please.

Im having an issue with TWRP 2.2.2.0.
It seems that I cant mount USB storage from the recovery at all. I can hear the sound on my lappy that a USB device is connected but when I try to mount through the recovery, nothing shows up on my computer. I tried mounting all the options there with no luck. Is this a known issue or have I messed up with my Nexie somewhere?
Thanks in advance fellow forumites.
Are you trying with usb otg? as in, cable and flash drive?

I couldn't figure that out either, I'm also using twrp. I had to use adb to transfer files. I don't think you messed up your nexie.

I am having the same problem.
With my Kindle Fire I could connect with a USB cable and see all the files on my pc, just like it was a drive. I can't get that to work on my N7. The only way I can do it is to use WIFI File explorer which works great, but I would still like to get the cable to do it's thing if possible.

Im trying to access the internal storage of the N7 from within the recovery. And it seems impossible :S
Right now for example, I wanted to do a NAND backup but I forgot to delete the previous one and Im out of space. The only thing I can do is reboot back to the system, plug in the usb and delete the backup, then reboot into recovery and backup -.- I wanted to avoid just that but it seems that USB mount doesnt work in TWRP at all. Is anyone using CWMR and can report wether it works there? I would re-flash the recovery in an instant...
Plugging my device into my PC, there is a TWRP folder that contains the backup I made. Couldn't you do this and just delete that folder? I'm not in debugging mode.
Some times windows detect USB device but fail to attribute a letter for that mass storage device. Look at disk managment for storage device without a letter.

I'm used to do all that stuff from within the recovery on my phone... So Im looking for the same thing for my Nexie. My biggest concern is that I wanted to have USB mount from within the recovery in case my Nexus fails to boot so I can transfer a new ROM and flash it with ease. Dont want to mess with ADB for basic stuff. I can access the storage when its booted normally just fine, its the recovery mount thats bothering me...

I'm also having this issue. Tried flashing B518 again, installed Recovery, flashed elora with all wipes.
When I connect the usb cable, it only charges the phone. If I enable usb debugging, it detects I've connected an usb cable, but nothing more.
If I reboot the phone with usb cable connected to pc, during startup the phone FC android.process.media
