Hi,
Is there any way to read a memory card from the TD's mini USB port. I have a small device that has a mini USB on one end and a USB on the other, inside this there is a micro sd card (I have pulled this out slightly, to show where it is). I can charge my TD with this device and I can see the memory card via normas USB but can't access the memory card from my TD, any ideas??
Thanks
The diamond does not have any USB host drivers, except in the bootloader, so it won't work.

Hi there,
I want to know if its possible to connect my Kaiser to a mass storage device (such an external usb hdd) and get access to the files on the device from the kaiser.
(I'm planning to connect the kaiser to an Usb multimedia-player hdd, and connect from my pc to the kaiser via wifi; This way i would transfer files from my pc to a far away usb hdd ... )

Not unless that Mass Storage device is a microSDHC card (currently up to 16 GB) which you can put into a USB card reader and then transfer to the phone. The HTC proprietary extUSB jack on the TyTN II will not 'host' a USB drive (aside from the issue of finding a Windows Mobile compatible driver).
Thanks Flying Kiwi
What a pity....
I have an HD7 with bootloader in the 5.xx series. I've bought a simple Y-Cable, female adapter, and 1gb sd card. Used the correct method to download the goldcard, format SD, and rename the .sbh file to SCHUIMG. I'm not sure what is going on but no matter what, no power gets to my card reader while using the Y-cable.
I even went the route of making my own Y-cable using a couple extra USB's i had laying around. I don't know what to do.
I DO get power with my card reader when I plug it directly into my usb on my laptop, but NOT through the wall outlet. BUt with the Y-cable, I can't get power through the usb drive.
If your not getting any power to the card reader... Try this,
Plug the power supply of the Y cable in first, then connect the card reader to the Y cable and lastly connect the device while it's in USB host mode.
If your still your not getting power to it, try switching around the connections on the Y cable between the device and card reader.
Also once you put the device into USB host mode and connect it to the Y cable and it doesn't start the flash process, you have to disconnect the device from the Y cable, pull the battery and re-enter USB host mode again for it to recognize the Y cable connection and re-start the flash process.
If it's still unsuccessful I would recommend trying a different card reader as this is the most common problem when it's stuck in "Enter USB Host Mode". I had the same problem with my card reader, I went and bought a SanDisk 5 in 1 card reader and the flash process started immediately as soon as I connected the device to the Y cable.

I use 32gig micro sdcard with adapter every day. some 64 gig flash drives work fine also
I think it just has to be fat32 format
Hello, i've bought a galaxy note 5 a week ago. N920C, international version, Marshmallow 6.0.1, not rooted. I was able to get a 32gb variant only, i though that's not a problem, i will increase my storage via USB OTG with Micro SD card reader or USB Flash stick! Today i received all the parts, i've spent whole day trying to find out why it doesn't work, i've downloaded many apps to check OTG compatibility and driver condition. My device recognises the connection when i put in USB OTG cable only - when the screen is off, i connect OTG, screen lights up. Also throubleshooting apps say the same, the device knows when OTG is connected.
The occuring problem : when my phone is connected with OTG cable, i also connect my USB Flash stick / SD card reader / mouse / keyboard / another usb flash stick --> Nothing appears on the screen, file managers show nothing and the troubleshooter stops at recognised OTG cable. Other connection tests won't pass any further. Troubleshooter conclusion - "System NOT Detect USB OTG Signal"; (App name: USB OTG Checker).
After buying a decent high-end device i expect it to have availability to expand storage space via USB OTG, although it was written in phone's specification list. 90% of note 5 devices on the internet say it is working perfectly and i would like to get mine going too :|
I have type C hub which have micro sd , sd , usb(for storage OTG) and micro usb slot for charging. It dont charge phone via micro usb cable if I use any storage device with it. but if i only put micro usb cable it charges. is there any mode which can tweak phone to do both ? my device is rooted and with RR os.
up anyone here xda member have tried ?
Everything seems to be pointing to the fact that charging and OTG doesn't work at the same time on Oneplus 3/3t and 5/5t. There's powered OTG cables, but these only power the external device and not the phone.
