Since I have the 64GB model space fills up quickly with roms and backups, could I just store all that stuff on a USB drive and use a adapter to connect it when I'm in TWRP? Should work the same way right?
Yes, USB OTG works in TWRP. You can actually make your backups directly to a USB flash drive in TWRP, which saves you time and write-cycles on your internal storage.
Should i get 64GB or 128, and I can flash from the USB also right?
Size of the flash drive is entirely up to you, get however much space you need. Yes, you can flash and restore nandroids directly from flash drives.

I figured just get the 128 and it's USB 3.0 so Im happy with my purchase thanks for the quick help and response! And I also bought the otg cable from the OnePlus website
Just fyi, the OP3T uses the USB 2.0 standard for its USB-C port.

It's not like USB 3.0 flash drives won't work. However, if you find two similar drives in 2.0 and 3.0 standards, the 2.0 one is likely going to be cheaper

More importantly without the USB cable? I was sent one in the mail and didn't get the transfer cable so now I can't root through debugging or whatever. Is there something I can do using just an SD card and running stuff off of that?

hmm , yes you can ( /me successful a not flaming TechnicalK )
basically the 1st question I need to ask you is are you on 2.1 or on 2.01 ?
2.1 needs vulenrable recovery flashed onto it , most 2.01 dont .
Depending on the f/w version... if you do need to flash it ( using rsdlite ) then yes you need the usb cable . (pretty easy to get and cheap especially on eBay)
Otherwise just grab GOT 's openrecovery and put it in sdcard then you can have lots of fun .
you def.ly need the pc to computer the required files you need to your sd card. once your files are on the card then you can root your phone with no pc needed, but again that's after you get the files on your phone...
You def.ly don't need the pc to do the root process if that's what you meant.

Nerver heard about the cellphone's browser.
As Dag said, if your phone is already vulnerable you can easily do everything you need w/o a pc.
Not sure if it works, and its not free like the DMUpdater was (really hoping they release a new version for free), but I got this from Droid-Life. (hope thats ok)
Im not going to post the link as I dont want to get in trouble, but its $.99 and I believe its on the market.
Look on site mentioned above, its on page 2 currently (or you can click the 'root' tab uptop on site to see older news)
Easy Root- The newest 1 touch droid rooting app
Also, is the problem JUST the lack of a USB cable, or do you actually not have access to a computer? If it's the former, you can easily get the correct USB cable for less than $5 online. Just look for a microUSB cable.
And pardon my possible ignorance, but how are you charging the phone without a USB cable? If you have the stock Motorola charger, the USB cable should be detachable, and you can plug it into the computer using that cable.
Yes you can. There is an app in the market called EasyRoot. I havent used it myself, but have read reports of it working great.
Yes -- EasyRoot works great on a stock 2.1/2.2 Droid.
It uses a hotplug exploit nicely packaged in an APK.

This is first question I've had since I first started gettting into this stuff 5 years ago with my moto droid 1. Excuse me if this has been asked before but I am having a hard time with hooking up a mouse and keyboard via usb to my Nook HD. I cannot get anything to be read by the nook. I tested the keyboard on my nexus 7 2013 and it worked perfectly. I have been at this for a couple days now and this thing is starting to look more and more like a frizzbe. I have rooted and installed roms on droid 1, droid 2 global, razor m, droid eris, samsung galaxy nexus, nexus 7 2013, Nook HD. im at witts end why did my wife buy this thing... Thank you in advance for all of your help.

verygreen has an apk to force enable usbhost, i use it with a mouse and keyboard and it works perfectly. But you got it working to thats great.
Im way out of my depth when its matters dealing with android kernels etc, so can I use the usb switcher if I can download it * on a rooted from the device Nook HD as opposed to one running CMC from SD card. Or are there other changes compiled into the kernel needed also.
If it will work any chance the changes needed to drive a usb camera could also be packaged up for side loading?
thanks

You can download a pre-made CM10.2 SD-card image archived file cm_ovation_10.2.0-RCx_ddmmyyyy_HD_SDC_IMG.7z from http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2013/09/17/cm10-2-jellybean-android-4-3-for-nook-hd-18sep2013/, then just unzip the file (e.g., with 7-Zip) and burn it to a SD card, and it's ready to go (assuming your HD+ can boot from SD card).

i have usb storage in storage menu as well as apps that can mount devices and storage. I also have the usbhostswitcher app as well as another one I found on here that helps for this.
I have the female to female adapter...yet no signs of it working whether I connect a mouse, usb flash drive, etc. I bought the adapter from the ebay link from verygreen post and ordered another one from diff seller today just in case...
Any thing I need besides the apps? Also anyone get a usb - to - ethernet adapter to work for this nook?

I don't think a simple female-to-female adapter would do, you need to use a USB OTG adapter.

Yeah somewhere in the last couple pages of the thread a couple people chime in on it.
Due to the confusion on how to setup flashcast and install pwnedcast, I decided to make a tutorial Video. Sorry for the crappy video/audio, I need a new webcam.
NOTE: this will work on a chromecast that has not been setup yet, and we recommend rooting a device before setup to prevent any accidental OTA update.

Hope this helps!

Good Job. I was actually going to do the same tonight, guess I don't need to do it!
I also think it could be mentioned that you could just flash Flashcast and Pwned before ever setting up your chromecast (eliminates the risk of connecting a brand new Chromecast to the internet and getting the update). I just tested it out on a Chromecast I got for a family member.
Sweet! I have been trolling YouTube for the last 1/2 hour looking for just this video with no luck. Came back here and "poof", here it is!
I have 2 Chromecasts that have been sitting untouched since release day, waiting for a comprehensive tutorial. Thank you!!

What are the benefits of a rooted chrome cast
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk
This might be OT but under the heading of what a CC noobie might do wrong!
I have a new CC but waiting on the OTG cable. I'm getting ready so I didn't have a standard USB flash drive but had a USB/xD adapter and a 1GB xD card on which I put Flashcast. After watching the video and the caution about trying to open the USB drive I decided to redo it. Win32DiskImager errors out at 97%, I forget the error number and Windows can't format it either! I was able to put it back into the camera and format it.
Just wondering if say someone tries Flashcast only to find out that they have one of the new bootloaders(which could be me too), what do they do with that USB flash drive or what will format it now? Or is it just something to do with the adapter that I used?

The biggest benefit is you get to keep your unlocked bootloader, and gain the ability to flash mods such as Kyocast to get around google's app whitelisting.

If you flash flashcast to a jump drive, and try to boot it on a chromecast that is already updated, it would stay on a black screen on your TV, and the jump drive would never format. You can just re-format the jump drive from your computer to return it to being a normal jumpdrive.
question, the other end of the OTG cable is plugged into your computer? where do chromecast get its power?

That's if your able to succeed but if it fails do to having the wrong bootloader? Are you still able to format from your PC or right after using Win32Diskimager to put the bin file on the USB drive, are you able to format, etc. then? Maybe using Win32DiskImager the second time corrupted the memory card??
in either case I must have the 3 way OTG? im asking this because I have the normal micro usb > female USB otg, there isnt a 3rd cable out to power the device. Appreciate your reply.

Well if it fails to boot due to a locked bootloader, it will not format. At that point even formatting it yourself (which would break flashcast) would not make it work as the bootloader is preventing it from booting.

It's not the process or lack of completing that I questioned, it's the condition of the USB flash drive if it fails. It might be better to ask, if Win32DiskImager is used to place the BIN file on a USB flash drive and it isn't used to flash a CC or fails to, how or with what is used to formatted it for reuse?

The flash drive can certainly be reformatted. I've seen reports of Windows being unable to format it using the standard explorer menu option for some reason, which is a bug in Windows, IMO. The format operation is exactly the same regardless of the contents of the drive, and Windows shouldn't be looking at the contents at all. Nevertheless, it doesn't work for some reason, so what you need to do is go into the Disk Management application as described here, delete all the partitions on the drive, and then create a new FAT32 partition which takes up all the space. (If someone is willing to create a guide with screenshots, I'd appreciate it, as I don't currently have access to a Windows machine.)

You need OTG support enabled for compile for either stock or custom kernels. So if stock kernel doesn't work, it's probably not enabled for compile.
My SkyHigh kernels are enabled, and able to mount my two WD USB powered HHD's with no issues. One is formatted NTFS and require paragon app to mount, and the other FAT and able to use the native ROM File Explorer. Of course, all requiring root.
You might also want to check your hardware (cable and adapter), I have a couple "dodgy" ones that are in need of disposal

Your are missing the point. It doesn't matter what "Joe Bloggs" said to you in the shop. It's really nothing to do with custom ROM (as you posted earlier in thread), but is compiled in the kernel.
If Samsung don't enable OTG whilst compiling the stock kernel, then the driver/module isn't inbuilt/compiled into kernel.
Root and flash SkyHigh kernel. Should work. It works fine for my T705.
As I also said, you need root and use paragon app to mount NTFS drives of any sort and possibly only with my kernel.

If this was just one device then I would avree. But I different devices, rooted with non rooted. I get this on stock not rooted, stock rooted and custom rom. Plus I had a friend try it on his S5 and got the same. 2 devices from sprint and 1 from Samsung. Now I could see Sprint maybe removing support but not Samsung. It's possible it was removed during update to KitKat. All 3 devices see the OTG drive but I get the message it might be corrupt, try reformat. Which I in both NTFS and 32bit across several drives.

You still aren't getting it. This is the last post to you.
If OTG isn't compiled in kernel (stock or custom), then it will NEVER work with ANY ROM with or without root. Seeing and mounting are different things.
Another user in this thread has confirmed OTG working on his device with my kernel. So there is the solution, or you may compile your own.
As I said, NTFS also need paragon app and root.
