USB OTG HOST ADAPTER CABLE not supporting pen drive in my galaxy note n7000, but mouse and keyboard working properly, why pen drive not supporting? please help me..
Is your pen drive FAT32 or NTFS? The note does not natively support NTFS. Format you drive as FAT 32, and try again. If it mounts, then good. You can also have a look here if you want to use NTFS.

Hi,
Since our beloved NEXUS S does not have a card reader and I take most of the pictures with our Panasonic Lumix camera, I was wondering , if there is a way (while traveling - not at home) to use a MicroUSB or Bluetooth SDCard reader to copy, crop, edit, share on social sites with the Nexus S, pictures just taken on my camera ?
Or is there a way of doing this that I did not think about ??
Thanks for the help

As I know, Nexus S don't support usb host... so ignore usb readers.
May be you can try Eye-fi's wireless sdcard
OK , thanks for the suggestion !!!!
there's a custom kernel in the works that will support usb host on the nexus s!

I have a Samsung Nexus S (ICS, Kernel 2.0.8) and I followed the instructions of link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1450298 in order to have access to the usb reader. Also, Nexus S has problem with usb OTG and I made my own cable as a person did in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23284398 (post #145). The phone works fine with the usb stick (see usb_stick.png) but not with the usb reader. In more details, the phone recognizes the usb reader on the 'Connected USB devices' on the USB Host Controller but it doesn't see the Mobile Security Card (G&D) or a simple MicroSD (see usb_reader.png) on the 'Connected mass storage devices' in order to mount the device. Do you have any idea what could be missing?

Hello all, I just got this device free from my operator, SIM free, and I would like to share this particular aspect.
First of all make shure your X SP is fully charged and you are using a working USB OTG cable adapter (preferably tested on other devices).
1. USB pendrives, SD and microSD adapters. Xperia SP supports out of the box USB storage meaning pendrives and SD adapters like Sandisk Cruzer (some old 4GBmodel) and some Sandisk 32 GB microSD car in Sony Ericsson's IM 920 adapter. All of them formatted as FAT32.
Yes I've encountered fails but related exclusively to voltage (both pendrives and SD adapters). Dunno which will work for you, better try before you buy.
2. Yes it supports exFAT. FWs prior to ...2.254 do not. I've tested them all. I am specific to the aforementioned. exFAt meaning you can mount microSD cards 64+ gigs and virtually any filesizes, think of 8 GB .mkv files.
3. It hurts when it comes to HDDs. Before anything make sure your external HDD has also an external power supply. It means you have to see a wire leading to a wall socket which is being actually connected. Otherwise your phone or tablet will never be able to power by itself a HDD, be it 2.5 or 3.5 inch. Moving on, I found plugging in any externally powered HDD does nothing by itself.
In comes the trick. I own a Xperia LiveDock DK10 for the 2011 range. It's externally powered and also has an USB OTG input. It helped me before with each pendrive which didn't work by itself when plugged in the USB OTG cable alone. Powering the dock supplied the energy the setup was lacking.
Since the most of you will find the dock redundant or missing from stocks I am glad to inform you all that some USB hub that was lying around, branded Manhattan, with external power supply, did exactly that job.
Here are some examples:
Toshiba 500 GB HDD FAT32 file format, 2.5" form factor, IcyBox enclosure, separate power supply, plugged in the 1st port of a Manhattan USB Hub, power supply powered in, mini USB output plugged in USB OTG adapter in Sony Xperia SP, fully charged. Played 1080p mkvs smoothly.
1500 GB Seagate/Samsung, 2000 GB Hitachi NTFS formatted 3.5 HDDs in powered racks, externally powered Manhattan USB hub, USB OTG cable, Xperia SP rooted, installed Paragon exFAT, NTFS & HFS+ and Paragon USB plugin for Total Commander, full size drive fully accesible.
..............................
Also Sony Nex camera, 64GB exFAT SD card inside, connected only with USB OTG cable on Xperia SP - working.
Thanks, u have photos?

Good info! :thumbup:
Just a question. After rooting my Tab S2 9.7 I expected to be able to use USB Otg. And though it works with smaller USB-Sticks, it seems I cant get it working with a 128GB Stick. The stick worked flawlessly on a Tab S. I did install a custom rom on the Tab S, the Tab S2 is just rooted, and running stock 5.0.2.
Any thoughts, ideas?
Anyone has thoughts about this?
I did root mine, it's running in Marshmallow and I have the same prob, doesn't recognise 128gb stick but recognise the wd 500gb passport drive via otg cable fine.

Verify the format
Pay attention, it seems that the O.S. cannot use NTFS formatted keys...

I have it working on a WD 500G / NTFS external hard disk & not working on WD 2 TB / NTFS external hard disk
It must be size limitation
Nope, the s2 Tab cannot read NTFS natively (6.0.1)! You'd need special drivers to make that work.
Hello, how do I get to connect a USB device (flash drive/HDD/microSD) to my Galaxy Tab S2 anyway?? I just ordered a OTG USB to microUSB cable this week, and although physically I can connect a flash drive to my S2 this way, no drive shows up in my S2. I did make sure my drive is FAT32. Is there a particular brand of cable I should buy?
Did you check the file manager?

I have always had mixed results with my Android devices - some OTG cables work, some don't. Got this in January and it works fine with my unrooted 8" S2 (T713):

I generally use exFAT for my connected drives. Yesterday, by using a Y-cable with power supplied by a battery pack I connected an exFAT Western Digital 4TB My Passport drive to my S2 (drive sucks too much power to be used without separate power supply).
How would you connect a 2.5" HDD using a SATA to USB 3.0 cable and USB 3.0 to USB-C a
It's an NTFS partitioned drive. I'm having a little trouble accessing it. I have a 1TB 3.5" drive as well, but so far I haven't had luck with it either.
It would be better if you had the SATA-USB adapter with external power source (the current is to low from single USB port, OnePlus 3 has USB2 and not 3).
You may need to flash a custom kernel with NTFS support built in.
Could you point me to an otg cable that works on the zuk? From what I've researched, not everyone works well on it!
I'm using this USB stick: Sandisk Ultra 32GB Dual USB Drive USB 3.1 / USB Typ-C
Please note that the USB stick needs to support OTG, too.
