I reformatted the otg drive above (big mistake) on my note 4 and everything seemed good until I noticed my Samsung TV no longer recognized the usb and wasn't showing up in source list. I reformatted the otg on windows to ntfs and Samsung recognized it but then note 4 said empty or unsupported and said I need to format. So it appears note 4 formated it in exfat but TV doesn't recognize. According to otg specs it default was exfat. Something is off because otg worked fine on TV and note 4 before I formatted it on the note. Any suggestions?
Well if you don't need file sizes larger than 4gb just format it as fat32.
The HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool should do the trick....

Or if you need large file sizes, ntfs is faster as well, format it as ntfs and get StickMount on your phone.

Either way it should get you up an running again.
i used to be able to connect my flash drive directly to the device and browse files using es file explorer
kingston 64gb dual usb 2.0
but now it doesnt work and only works if i connect the supplied otg cable which defeats the purpose of why i bought the flash drive
now i know according to the kingston website my device isnt listed, but it used to work
is there anything i can do to fix this? is there something stopping it from working e..g app?
Help me to resolve my issue. My sandisk dual ultra stopped detecting in my moto g . I tried formatting fat32 still it is not recognising...I tried OTG troubleshooter it is just showing 1 usb hub found but not displaying in mount option......... I tried one more sandisk otg it is recoginising ....
Which OS are you running? Did you try a different USB drive/OTG cable?
In Lollipop 5.1, it automatically mounts USB and you can access it in file manager (I use ES).

I am using cm 12.1 official and USB drive. I tried my friends usb drive its working .the only problem is with mines only.
And that also i done clean formatted with fat32 so many times still it is not able to detect in phone but it is working in pc perfectly...
That's very strange. Could you please try a full format to NTFS?
And what is the capacity of the USB drive?

i tried that also but no use.. And pendrive is sandisk ultra 16gb dual
I believe there is some problem with your dual USB drive. I have Sandisk Ultra dual 64GB and mine works fine (I own Moto G 2nd gen, but there are not much hardware differences in 1st and 2nd gen). If it is in warranty, maybe you should go for replacement.
Good morning, I would like to know if with this tablet I can use a 64gb or higher USB stick, and which format? (Fat32, exfat, NTFS)?
Thanks
OTG works fine on S2.
I have used a 128 GB stick with no problem and Micro SD up to 200 GB both internally and via OTG also no problems.

Thank you, which format are your SD and USB otg? Exfat, NTFS, fat32?
If you want to read and write to a NTFS drive (I've tested it with a SanDisk Extreme 64GB USB stick and a Western Digital 1.5 TB Elements drive) use:
Paragon exFAT, NTFS & HFS+ https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.paragon.mounter
And a file explorer such as Root Explorer https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer
Other file explorers may work (they probably need root permissions), but the Samsung default file explorer doesn't "see" the connected USB drive.
Yeah I know those programmes, but at the beginning I wouldn't like to root my device. What I want to know is which kind of partition does the s2 natively read, from the manual I've only found fat and exfat. Could someone confirm that?
I use exFat and my latest file reader is FileKommander. I find it works best.

Thank you very much
My tab s2 Marshmallow failed to recognise my 128gb otg stick while my sisters tab 4 8" running android 5.01 recognise it just fine. Prob with permission in marshmallow?
is there a way to add more storage to google chromecast with google tv? i've tried many methods to have CC recognize my 128gb usb 3.0 fat32 flashdrive. I've gotten a usb c hub adapter with ethernet port, i've plugged the fat32 usb flash drive, formated it in google tv as internal storage, google tv sees the flash drive but i won't allow me to use it to transfer files, use it as extra sotrage etc etc. Anyone got a work around? I've factory reset this device but no luck.

Not really a work-around.

yes i formated it using my windows laptop to fat32, then plugged it to the usb c hub, formatted it again using ccwgtv as internal stoage but still can't use the flashdrive for anything. If anyone here was able to expland their CCwGTV, please post the steps here. Thank you.
I used an old 16GB USB 2.0 stick, formated with AOMEI on a windows laptop, inserted into a USB type C hub to my CCwGTV and now in
Settings/Storage
in the internal storage I can see the 4,4 GB original space plus the 14,8 GB usb stick.
I also own a 256 GB USB 3.0 stick, inserted into the USB type C hub's second slot, which is presented as "External disk" in the storage menu.
