SD card adapter - Galaxy Tab 8.9 General

Probably a big-time noob question, but now do I get my tablet to recognize my SD card when using the adapter? Are there more steps than simply plugging it in and looking for it with a file manager? For that matter, the same question applies to the USB adapter when using it with a flash drive. Someone please help and confirm my ineptitude! Thanks!

Running stock? It will pop up on the bottom, where the clock is.
Running a custom ROM? Not sure.

There is a special folder: Storages where external usb memory can be found when mounted.
In my experience USB OTG is a very good replacement of embedded external SD card and it works very well with two usb adapters I tried.

[Help!] SD Card

Hello XDAians..
So, basically, something is wrong with my SD Card after partitioning using Swapper..
Now, my phone doesn't even read my SD Card. You can't go through files, etc.
I know the problem is not the ROM nor the PHONE.. because my phone reads my brother's SD Card which is the same class, space & type..
I can't format because MiniPartition tool also doesn't recognize my SD Card.. Help?
My SD Card is a Class 2, 8GB, MicroSDHC.
Please help. I really need my SD Card to install new ROMS and MODS..
Have you tried CWM built in
It also doesn't read anything

Try it in a computer. That doesn't work, it's fried. I had that with a 16GB PNY card. My current Samsung works fine no matter what I do

The thing is, I don't have an adapter for the SD Card..
If it isn't working in cwm then you only have to find a adapter and partition again...
I got the same, after I deleted swap it solved

Mini tool partition is the best...
Use it and delete swap
Sent from my E15i using Tapatalk 2
hmm if you swaps, i recommend u use a class 6 or higher to lower risk
please use class 2 sd class
maybe you can use card reader to check it..is it still FAT format or not
then try to fix it or something else like repair your sdcard
and turn on your phone WITHOUT sdcard
last, turn it on again WITH sdcard

Your PC detects your ext_sd when using another rom?
Otherwise it might be a windows problem. I have one PC where everything works fine an another where no card is shown.
Maybe uninstall Samsung driver, try without and/or install new USB driver.
Btw: my Linux PC never has any problems

Help!
I cannot copy and paste files from phone to USB flashdrive using OTG, but it works from USB flashdrive to my phone.

What miui is that? 1.18.0? Does it even exist?

Hi. I too am having a similar issue. In my case however, the USB drive is detected as a device but size is showed as 0bytes! I am using a 32GB SD card with an OTG card reader. Is this not supported by MI3 ?

OTG is working fine on my Mi3W, please make sure you format your SD Card or USB Drive to FAT32.
