[Q] Atrix as USB host

I have OTG USB host cable for Motorola Xomm. Is there any way this coulb be used with Atrix??
Don't take my answer as 100 percent. I want to say no dice on the usb host deal, but the hd dock and lapdock have usb ports for key/mouse. I think somebody mounted an external hdd but had problems. Hopefully somebody else can shed more light on this.
I voided my warranty.
It'll need a 5vdc power supply

Yeah there is a post on this already but the answer is that you just need a powered USB hub and that cable and you can use it as a host.

I know nothing about Samsung, but my Atrix works fine as USB host. All you need is powered USB hub and cheap OTG adapter. I bought one from Dealextreme (sorry, can't post links). It works great with any USB keyboard or mouse or FAT formated memory drive.

which hdd works OTG with S2 ?

is there any1 successfully connected hdd to S2 via OTG ?
i tried 2 hdd (seagate 500gb usb2 and samsung 500GB usb3) both never work
even before and after root to 2.3.5 xxki4
mind to share which brand of hdd you tired and works ?
or share me tricks to make it happen thnx!
I think you won't be able to spin a hdd with the power of your phone. You'll need an extra Psu for the hdd. Model that come with those things. Most 2.5" doesn't, but i might be wrong.

Yes.

Just a word of warning if you do use it. The port does move in and out about a centimeter , designed to let the 3G dongle get a better signal. It appears the ribbon cable that attaches the USB port to the board is not designed very well from all that moving and eventually will crack the wires making the port useless.

hook razr directly to hard drive.....find me a cable

Is it possible to find Micro-USB A to USB 2.0 B-Type....For people wondering what that is...imagine pluging usb cable into printer (that's type B same as ext drive) and the micro usb A is the other end to go into phone...Would it even work?
Well, on my phone I had to use a power supply, an USB Y cable, and an OTG cable, do some cable modification and with that I`m now able to connect my mouse and keyboard.
I tried connecting an USB flash drive but it sadly didn`t work.
EDIT: I got my flash drive to work using the APP USB Host Controller.
So... if you use an external power supply and an OTG cable i think it would be possible.
