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.

USB OTG only FAT32 (not tested 16)?

Just tried USB OTG and can only read a 4GB FAT32 flash drive. 4GB NTFS is shown as blank (also tried a 64GB NTFS flash drive with same result).
Can anyone confirm this is the case for them too?
Try formatting them in exFat instead of ntfs

But then my car stereo will not read the flash drive
EDIT: Just tried ExFAT and it does not recognize it.

Might want to check the owners manual, ISTR that it mentions the format that OTG works with. Likely that it's FAT32 only
HTH
Looks like you can only read NTFS with root

Pendrive support issue.............

Hey guyz... i have an issue ...need ur suggestions.
I bought the OTG cable to use my 8gb PENDRIVE... Manufacturer: KINGSTON.
But unfortunately when i attach the usb after some time it says USB already remove...
I also tried after formatting the usb using the FAT32 + NTFS option but the problem remains the same.
On the other hand i tried to connect HP 4gb and no problem occurs with them....
I also tried to check it with h2testw no issues reported.
I also used the software Paragon NTFS & HF from play store.. ISsues are the following attached images.

It might be a compatibility issue with the Kingston pendrive.
Previously saw a forum posting saying Android OTG is more compatible with FAT32 pendrive.
First time hearing FAT32 + NTFS option.
1) You can try to use Windows to format the Kingston pendrive to FAT32 format.
2) Or use App SanDisk Memory Zone to format the Kingston pendrive.

3) Sony is going to sell a new 2 in 1 flash drive, you might want to consider getting it

It's have two partitions? Then is that the problem.

I also contacted the Kingston customer support... They are saying that all usb's are standard and not OTG supported so far.. .So no use of discussion... But still if got any solutions then let me knw.. Thanks in advance...

Try to format it in exFAT. And is the USB 3.0 device compatible with 2.0?

Have you tried formatting it from the phone?

pretty much. even after formatting it from the phone itself, the same error message repeats and I cannot view my data. But when I plug the usb into the laptop, all my content is intact. which technically means that the phone is failing to format the usb even after it shows the 'Format complete' message. I guess this is a CM Kernel problem

OTG Storage

Has anyone tried using a USB micro to transfer files I bought a 64gb dual usb SanDisk drive for my phone that I can carry with me but I can't get it to work. It shows that it's there in storage and highlights the mount usb drive but does nothing when clicked. If anyone has used something like this please share what you are using so I can transfer my files so I can work off that OTG Storage thanks.
what file browser are you using?

use ES File manager
u can transfer all files u want from phone to usb storage o viceversa
Thanks
I got it to work had to change the flash drives exfat format to an 32fat, once I did that it worked.
I have this same problem with my 64gb Sandisc micro usb.
It highlights the mount in storage settings but does nothing.
Can you specify how you formatted the 64gb drive to 32 gb? As far as I know fat32 does not recognize any size larger than 32gb?
As far as the file managers being used they should be obsolete because if you cannot even mount the drive nothing will recognize it.
I bought 2 flash drives and have 4 Turbos with all having the same results. If anyone knows how to fix this problem please let me know.
Thanks,

Try browsing to /storage/usbdisk in Explorer free.
64 GB (fat32) should work, works fine on old Maxx.

He wasn't talking about formatting from 64GB to 32GB (storage space), it's the FILE SYSTEM (NTFS, FAT32, EXFAT) he changed.

how to expand storage in CCwGTV?

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.

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.
