It doesn't seem like the files are accessible though. Anyone know if it is possible to get this working? Purely for novelty purposes.

Set the i9100 to development mode (so it's mass storage not mtp) and it MIGHT work. Try it let us know.
I wonder if once the i9100 on the left drains, if it will try and charge from the other

"Funny how one trys to steal the other one's energy."
I dont know why but I laughed so hard at this

So it's a link that makes them have infinite battery life! Brilliant!
$1 gets you a reply

Survival of the fittest. I predict that the phones will take turns being the gimp and top until they approach 0% shared battery at which point they'll both be hard bricked. You're probably thinking this sucks, but don't worry, you've got expensive nunchucks now.

Good idea. Tried that though with no success.
Oh well. I'll suggest to the devs that they implement this crucial function in their custom kernels lol.

try to play a heavy game on the phone that provides power to the other S2

Connecting with dev mode at USB Mass Storage mode WILL give access to both internal and external SD to the other phone. Not sure what you tried.

when your battery blows up let us know !

Very funny! Haha ;-)

Hmm that's odd it didn't work for me. I put the non-host phone in dev mode and then tried. Is there anything else you have to do? Maybe my kernel has USB otg disabled? I'm on void.echo at the moment. Will investigate some more.

Just got to Settings >> Applications >> Development >> USB debugging (while USB cable is DISCONNECTED)
Once you connect the USB cable, go to notification area and and click on "USB connected" message, there you would find button for "Connect USB storage"

Support for USB OTG????!

First of all I am sorry to creat a new thread...I thought that if I put my topic in other thread then it will look like off topic...!!!
USB otg is fantastic feature in samsung falaxy S2, nokia n8, nokia c7. Our chipset support this facilty but samsung has disabled it...
But interesting part is many developers have implemented this on nexus, htc & many other devices...
Check out this site
www.mobilelocalsocial.com/2010/achievement-unlocked-usb-host-otg-for-android-on-nexus-one-hacked/
here developers have implemented this feature in nexus one phone...
Check out this url also
www.forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=993152
here also developers have done magic with HTC deire HD...!!!
So I think that there is a hope related to this feature...we have many experienced developers from whom we can expect this magic...
It sure would be nice to have usb otg enabled.does any one have a compliant cable over here ? I would sure giv it a go if i had the cable.

pleased to help you out,
Got 1 cable from ebay other from friend (don't know were he got it)
hey man u can create the usb otg cable by yourself...
just buy 2 female usb port connectors...
connect those two ports in parallel..
then plug into the usb pendrive into one port and to other connect the data cable..

ICS USB is not a bug.

I'm not sure if anyone has posted about this before, but I'd like to bring this up.
"Galaxy Nexus does not support USB Mass Storage. However, it supports MTP and PTP. Also, it is not a problem with ICS. ICS still supports UMS
Why did Galaxy Nexus stopped supporting UMS? - They wanted to have no partition for the Memory available. That is the full 32 GB/16 GB is available for everything - music storage, apps, pics, docs, etc.
Since there is no partition, it is impossible to support USB. There will be only one partition which will be running, and there will be no partition to mount."
Since these roms are built off of source, it's almost like having the Galaxy Nexus version of ICS (aside from on screen buttons obviously). I'm assuming we'll continue to see USB File Transferring once we get the official OTA but at least we know this technically isn't a bug.
I love it!!! I can plug my phone into my pc and use the storage from both pc and my phone at the same time without unmounting usb It's great!!
I have the on screen buttons lol

Not to hijack the thread, but what did you set your LCD size to? I did the recommended 210 but it made the keyboard too small for me.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
I was on AOSP's ICS rom for a couple of hours this morning (v13) and every time I plugged it in, Win7 64bit Ultimate popped up with a different prompt, and different "drive system" (best way to describe it). Still had full access to ALL of my files, but it was easier to navigate, and no "click me 4 times to enable USB storage".
Was very nice, and makes me VERY eager to get back to ICS once it is a bit more stable (going to re-flash v13 now just to see if all of the fun problems I was having were because of a bad flash)

Maybe swype makes the difference. Although looking at it now I wonder if the keyboard size isn't a psychosomatic problem.
To stay on topic, I love that the phone doesn't mount as a USB device anymore. At work they have a gpo that disables the mass storage device driver on Windows, and now I can mount my phone files again.

Also wireless Mouse/KB
and the best part for me is I can Connect my USB speakers to it.
But in case of speakers Battery must be charged well, as speakers are high powered device.
But it runs as long as battery is not down to like 30-40 %.

Did I miss something? Did you release another preview build tonight? I was just going to report that Storage FCs but I see you already know that. I also had an issue with USB MTP connection, it also FCs and fails to connect to the PC. Well, just finished d/l the file in this thread and it does indeed look new, is USB MTP now working? Thanks.

I never heard anything. For the time being I've built the CM10 and ported the AOKP framework.
CM10 is going to final builds soon, and AOKP has already stopped at M1, so once this gets all ironed out there won't really be any changes. Future updates will address bugs only until I can figure out the Git myself and add the Camera.

I had no problems charging as mtp was already checked off from my previous install of JC Sullins' preview CM10. Matter of fact, if you plug into usb, even though it won't connect you can then tap usb connected from notifications and see whether mtp is checked off or not and check if needed.
