Xoom USB mode

Is it possible to connect my Xoom to PC using USB Mass Storage, not this buggy MTP protocol?

I'm wondering the same thing ... I didn't notice this until now but on the new 4.0.4 Mass Storage as an option is gone.

I'm running JB ota and MTP is running fine. Actually it's running exceptionally!

Well, I don't like it. It doesn't show me real progress of what I'm copying, and it doesn't even refresh all the files, so last time I tried to check something on my xoom I saw only 3 folders of 20, and no amount of refreshing and reconnecting my xoom could fix that.

any updates?

Are there any updates in this?

I have lost all my pictures (8gb) while working with this silly MTP mode.

Went through unlocking and rooting my device (which was quite the challenge), tried to use some recovery apps without any success... The USB Mass Storage Watcher app from Skidmrk doesnt get me mass storage mode... (I'm not allowed to post a link to it.)

I just want to get it connected via mass storage, so that I can scan it with recuva!!!

You might need to download USB driver for Motorola Xoom from Motorola site. Just Google for it.

You just need to keep the screen Always ON an password unlocked and don't touch the tablet (since its ROM) while on USB on PC it should work fine.

I do not try this.

Good to know for further reference... Only: How exactly do you keep the screen on without touching the phone? The max screen timeout setting I can see is 30 minutes...
