Hi,
please help me with the my new role of owner Motorola Xoom 3G Eu.
I receive Honeycomb 3.1 OTA and rooted my my device after them.

Last days i try to make automount usd flash drives. I'm novice on Android but i'm not novice on Linux. I have the good host USB cable and check it. My usb mous & usb keyboard is work with Xoom.

What i did:
1. I make folder /data/media/usbdisk (i can't make folder under /mnt becouse /mnt rebuild on reboot)
2. I check that Xoom to see my drive:
Code:
$ su
# mount -t vfat /dev/block/platform/tegra-ehci.0/sda /data/media/usbdisk
#
and i see content of my drive.
3. I added string to end of file /etc/vold.fstab:
Code:
dev_mount usbdisk /data/media/usbdisk auto /devices/platform/tegra-ehci.0
And reboot device. And nothnig When i connect my flash drive to the Xoom USB port i don't see any files unedr /data/media/usbdisk . List is empty. Drive not mounted Why?

As your rooted then https://market.android.com/details?i...=search_result will work, it downloads busybox as well

Its shows as usbotg directory in file app


or you could use https://market.android.com/details?i...=search_result with busybox

I try this program - don't work on my Xomm. Show only popup crash window after insert usb flash drive. USB Watcher OTG not compatible with European 3.1 OTA version of Android.

And the second application don't work too. Say "can not mounted"

Did you use the right files to root ?

If you used the ones for 3.01 that would explain it

Try the ones in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=156

I had stock Xoom, got 3.1 OTA update and used these and it all works fine.

Thats what I did.


Only took about 30 minutes from starting to burn stock to finish root.


Oh and if you have titanium backup to reinstall ONLY install missing apps and data and not system apps and data as it overwrites newer stuff.
