Assuming you tested the USB(FAT partition) and cable is working well, does it show up in storage after connection?
Worked once well. After that started showing that hard disk is corrupted. But hard disk works normally in laptop! Kindly help me!

I was trying the new version of stickmount to see if I could use it to mount my ntfs drive and was trying out workarounds when I came across a post recommending the use of usb host fix. I ran the app, restarted as directed and voila! Now nothing shows up when I connect my otg cable. I've tried my fat32 hdd which was working fine and a card reader and nothing!
I'd moved from 4.1.2 to the stock german 4.3 rom on my rooted I9305 and paragon's ntfs app would no longer mount my drive so I decided I'd check to see if there was anything else I could do before wiping 900gb's of data and formatting it to fat32. Now I wish I had!
I've contacted the dev and tried chainfire's usb diagnostic app as well as usb host controller - which stated S3C usb host driver not found.
Please let me know your suggestions as I desperately need to be able to connect via my otg cable - my phone has taken the place of my netbook when i travel so that I can backup my photo's and transfer music and movies from my hdd's to the phone. I'm heading out to South America and REALLY need this function back!
i cant connect to my hard disk with touchpad. İ have otg cable but it doesnt see my hard disk . please help . i want to see hard disk with my hp touchpad
You will need to connect to a PC to transfer files. I've never heard of connecting a drive directly. I don't think the USB port is powered!

A. Don't use an otg cable, use a standard micro usb
B. In order to have the PC recognize the TP, you have to Novacom usb drivers installed
C. You can connect many usb devices, including hard disks, but you may need a powered usb hub since the TP doesn't provide enough power to drive many of them

Yup. It makes perfect sense.
I've 2 K3 notes and one is rooted and another untouched system.
I've tried paragon ntfs mounter to mount my HDD. Before I used paragon mounter I could get my HDD power on nd get detected as blank media. After using paragon mounter I'm not able to power on HDD or charge any other mobile via otg. I'm able to power on HDD and charge other mobiles with untouched system K3N.
So I flashed stock rom again to my rooted one but problem not solved :crying: please help
Thanks in advance
USB OTG works only for flash medias...it won't work with external HDD (Desktop HDD or Laptop HDD)

I know it doesn't work but it can power up them. Please read the thread again correctly
Why on earth would you want to power up a HDD knowing you can't access/transfer files?
Seems mighty queer to me.
And your topic sounds misleading...are you saying usb flash drives works fine but external HDDs don't work?
Coz thats what OTG is supposed to do...powering external HDD and charging other phones is not OTG.
Anyways...wish you luck and hope some devs help you out.
HDD requires a huge power supply which u wont get from mobile.
common knowledge

Hello guys
Recently i had to connect a USB drive ( Kingston 8GB pen drive) to my phone ( Xperia Z3C) but nothing happend. So i said "hmm maybe there sth wrong with my phone" so i tried to mount it on my Xperia Z Ultra, but again nothing was mounted. The pen drive was NOT mounted as it should and I also coudnt do it manually from the Settings( because the options "Mount and Unmout" were grayed out). This is pretty weird. I used to plug in pen drives, external HDDs all the time back when i was on KitKat. But i havent tried to do it since updating to Lolipop .... till now. I searched so long for an answer but i coudnt find anything Confirmed so i decided to ask you guys
My question is : What is the reason for not being able to mount USB drives anymore ? Is it the android version (Lolipop) or Im missing sth ?
Facts :
- i have an OTG cable ( even 4 of them, they are all in perfectly working condition)
- my USB drive is completely fine ( i tried with 4 other flash drives with the same result - not being able to mount them)
- my phone(Z3C) and phablet(XZU) are working perfectly and rooted with latest firmwares. I used to plug in USB sticks all the time back when i was on KitKat.
Help me understand what's happening pls
Are these stock roms on your devices, or are they custom roms? lots of custom roms debloat the software that's installed, sometimes removing the bigger packages not used so often.
Presumably you can see the file structure on the phone/tablet when you hook it up to a PC? so the lead and USB libs are working.
The only other thing I can think of is that NTFS might not be supported in Lolipop, have you tried formatting one of the drives in FAT?
all roms i have are stock
my USB sticks are all FAT32, my external HDD is in NTFS. Neither work.
Yes i can see all files on my phone/phablet through the PC when i hook it up.
I was attempting to install a zip afresh and wiped everything off the device(no OS). I am only left out with TWRP and it won't recognize the OTG (shows 0 mb).
Windows doesn't recognize device to try via Nexus Root Toolkit(so adb devices, fastboot devices is not helping). Is this the end of my Nexus 6 ?
Hang in there there's very smart people here. I have high hopes for your case.
Could someone be of some help here ?
Try cleaning the USB socket on the phone.
Try another USB cable.
Does the phone show up in Windows' device manager? It should be there when running TWRP.
Edit: how is your OTG drive formatted? Best is probably old-fashioned FAT. I don't know which other formats TWRP supports, but exFAT is often a problem.
