Did anyone try OTG on P9 and if it works? There is one thread where someone confirmed that it works with ADATA UC 350, but I am wondering if USB host via OTG cable works as well (where you plug in keyboard, mouse, usb flash drive or hard drive).
I am also wondering if it would support 200gb microsd card in exFat format. Can someone test this? Even if you have 64gb or 128gb microsd card you can still test it to see if card is recognized in exFat. Since device supports microsd XC standard, which is from 64gb to 2TB, I don't know why offical statement is that it supports only cards up to 128gb. It should support 200gb as well, since they are both microsd XC standard, no?
I am using an OTG usb c cable and it reads my memory stick. Not tried any other peripherals like mice.
Not sure about the 200gb. I have a 128gb micro sd that I have set up as adaptive storage.

What format is your memory stick? If it is FAT32, can you format it into exFat and NTFS and tell me if it still reads it correctly?
It's fat 32 I believe. Sorry I am not able to as it's a 128gb stick and it's pretty full with works files. I have a surface pro and not much else storage I'm afraid.
I tested my 64gb usb flash drive formatted in exFat on my friends galaxy s7, and it looks like it supports it natively. If I test the same usb on my nexus 7 2013 (marshmallow), it says that usb is not supported. Can someone test exFat on Huawei p9?
I have an exfat microsd card in my P9.

What size? That means that Huawei supports exFat format, which means it should theoretically also support OTG exFat usb flash drive, I guess.

128gb. TWRP doesn't recognise it but the main OS does.

I have insert microsd on adapter, on a cel, on a notebook, but nothing has can format the memory. The device is not supported. Why?
What kind of card and card reader you're using? If it is microSDHC card, make sure it is FULLY compatible w/ the card reader.
My laptop and peripheral readers do not accept a microSD of any size above 2 gigs. All have been updated to no avail.
The latest 8 gig Sandisk microSD will format by using the Sandisk "MicroMate USB" read/writer plugged into a USB 2 port. I need to use the adapter (microSD to SD) as well as their MicroMate adapter.

Mack5305 you have reason! You are the best! I have insert my microsd of 4gb in the sd adapter and next i have inserted the sd adapter in MicroMate adapter and the card is read correctly!! I have format her!! Very thanks!!
I got a little USB OTG host dongle, regular female with microUSB to fit in the GN. One 8 GB USB memory I could read, but another (16 GB) said unsupported file system. What can I use in the USB slot? Keyboard? Memory up to 8 GB? Anyone know what the restrictions are?
Usb keyboards, mice, wireless keyboard/mice, ps3 gamepad, wiimotes, memory card upto 64GB have been confirmed. It depends on the card. You could try reformatting card if it's not reading correctly. Some cards just don't play nice with phones. Others are fake! I've had varying success with different card readers in the past.
Yesterday I had no problem with a 32GB memory stick, I'm kind of impressed with what this phone is capable of, seems I can even watch HD movies on a big screen.

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
I am trying to get large SD or microSD cards to connect to my droid turbo via an OTG adapter but have not had much success. I can successfully mount a 64GB flash drive and a 128GB microSD but when I step up to a 200GB microSD or a 256GB SD it does not mount. The button in the storage section of the setting to mount OTG storage becomes un-greyed-out but it will not mount it. My phone is rooted.
I was eventually able to figure it out by formatting the drives in FAT32 as primary and with 32kb cluster size. I used minitool to format the cards.
My next task is to try and connect multiple drives at once as well as a usb audio dac.
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).
