I downloaded Nook Tweeks, enabled USB host mode and External vBus, but nothing happens when I connect a USB-stick via a micro ubs to usb converter.
Am I supposed to do something else? Or does the USB-stick have to be in some special format?

I got the same exact problem. It didn't seem to work at all.I think I'll have to order the adapter to see if the problem is the OTG cable or not

I ordered some cheap ones from DX, but since there are two of them and none of them works I'm assuming it's the Nook the problem is with.

It could be the USB-sticks are trying to draw too much power. The Nook host port will only supply low power USB devices (<100mA) and it is also best to have a fairly well charged battery. Some sticks work and others don't.
If you have a powered USB hub then this supplies the power so there is no problem. So try with a powered hub to at least see if that is the issue.

I used the same USB in this chart Nook Color USB HOST Device Compatibility List Sandisk Cruzer 8GB on CM7
I bought the Nook Color is to connect it to my camera via DSLRcontroller but so far still not successfully with USB stick.
Read my thread , it should answer most if not all your questions

I'm hoping to get some free time and update it this weekend with more info and probably a widget
I could never get usb host working on cm7. I have been trying to use RYC usb to control my Nikon Dslr . Once i switch over to CM9 beta it worked first time.

CM7 also shouldn't give you any trouble , as long as its FAT32 and you are using a hub
can you explain what exactly have you tried and provide logs?
I didnt use usb hub,just enable the usb host mode in Nook Tweak app and plug my usb via otg cable.

Then you didn't read good enough the thread or the chart..
You need an external hub ( powered or non-powered ) to work with the sandisk cruzer.
Thanks a lot, i ll order one and try it out.
I tried to connect with my camera but nothing happened,I guess I have to try with usb hub as well

I'm new to the Atrix HD, but have been around since the OG Droid (followed by a Droid 2, Droid 4, then Galaxy Nexus). I just picked up an Atrix HD for the first time.
USB works for fastboot - Windows 7 recognizes it, fastboot shows USB connected.
If phone is turned off, and connect USB to PC, phone boots up.
If phone is turned off, and connect USB to power adapter, it will charge.
Once booted into android, USB does not work at all. I've tried 2 different cables (both of which work to power it when connected to the wall charger) and 2 different physical machines across 3 different OS's - all with the same result. Once in Android, USB is not recognized. Nothing happens, no indication in the OS that a device is even detected.
I've tried RSD back to stock - but this did not resolve the issue.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Weird... Which Recovery are you using? Also, when did this problem started? Did you formated any partition? Any new ROM?

It was completely stock - OS and recovery.
I purchased it off ebay, so - I'm not sure when it started. I've been in contact with the buyer, and he said he never tried connecting to a PC.
With that being said, I was able to get it to work on my mac with a Nook cable. Same cable will not work in on my laptop in Win 7 or in Fedora 20 for this phone.
While not ideal, I was able to get the phone to it's desired state by using the mac (CWM recovery and CM11 ROM). After changing to CWM and CM11, phone exhibits same behavior still on Win 7 and Fedora when using a generic or genuine OEM Motorola cable (came with my Droid 4) as well as using the cables on the Mac. The only way it works is with the Nook cable on the Mac. Using the OEM or generic while attached to a wall adapter, the phone does charge.
The only thing I can think of with the Nook cable is that the connector is slightly longer than a typical USB adapter. I'm not sure why this works as I can not see any damage to the phone's USB socket.

This is really weird. But I think this is a hardware issue, even when the port may not show any signs of abuse or something like that. If you connect the OEM Motorola cable to the Mac, does it works? If it doesn't, it's very likely to be hardware issue. Also, you got it from Ebay, that's suspicious... Any way, another thing that you can do is download all Motorola drivers for Windows and try with a ton of USB cables.
Stupid question, but what exactly are you trying to do with it? And do you have USB debugging enabled?

Charging would be a good start, but file xfer would be nice too. I've tried with USB debugging both disabled and enabled.
ive recently had to replace my usb port in my One, and since replacing the phone charges in all modes fine, but it wont recognise on my PC.
Ive tried several cords and usb ports, also different computers with no avail, anyone have an idea of whats going on?

Not sure exactly what you mean by not recognized on your PC but take a look at this post to help you troubleshoot your issue.
Hi for some reason i cant get usb host to work,
But the thing is that my devices are being powered but not detected on Android.
Also i have a "7 Nook HD with Cyanogen Mod 11 so it should work right?.
Did you enable USBHost (using Verygreen's USB Host Switcher app linked at his CM10.1 thread's OP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41024398&postcount=1)?
Yes i used that and a whole bunch of different apps and roms but they wont work.
Also the app on the screen is the USBHost Switcher App.
Edit:
i also used the nook color with cm7 and usb host worked.
Ok this morning i tried connecting my usb device again and when i pressed the button to enable usb host it worked and
i was able to use my usb device then it said it disconnected because i had another app for usb host that does that.
also could it be my cord?.
I never could get my nookhd to recognize usb either.
I am running verygreen's kernel 3.0.31 -hummingbird-green+ jun 13 2013
cyanogen 10.1
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?
thank you all for any input
I've bought an usb endoscope type of camera that I connect to both my laptop and to my samsung galaxy s5 via a usb otg cable. The app I use for the camera is the camerfi from google play and it works great. I tried to connect it to the nook hd+ via a female usb coupler but it won't work. Any ideas how to get this working?
I believe the USB Host feature is available only on CM10 and CM11 ROMs (and only for certain USB device types).
What ROM are you using?
I got 2 nooks, one on the latest lollipop cm12.1 and the other on cm11 M12.
CM12.1 current builds do not support USB Host.
On CM11 you need to use verygreen's UsbHostSwitcher app to enable it, although it does not look like USB camera is supported -- see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43053751&postcount=29.
Thanks for the info digimax. The usbhostswitcher app doesn't install on the cm12.1 but does on cm11. When I switched it on, while the camera wasn't working as you've predicted, the led light of the endoscope camera did turn on. Maybe someday there will be a fix to this, one can only hope.
