Is it really so hard to understand that you have to connect usb to a computer and copy the files BEFORE pressing the button?

This meens that usb_host isn't writeable.
I Tried chmod 777 usb_host but then i get "chmod: usb_host: Read-only file system".
I get this with every USB i try (just a usb-stick or an external hard drive (250 gb, 1 tb, ... everything i have ))

This is weird. I tested this just a minute ago on my A101IT:

$ adb shell

everything works as expected. the usb stick is formatted with fat filesystem, what is yours?

check "mount | grep usb_host" for more information

Can someone tell me what is the version of Android after flashing 2.4.83 update?

thanks

As stated here numerous times, it still is Froyo so it is Android 2.2.1
