Connect the USB device before starting the tablet. Then recognizes it without any problems, until it fails again, and just repeat the operation. Sorry for my English.

You must know that I had the same problem with the Alpha3 and I had to do what "garbanzito" suggests in his post (quoted below).
Now I'm on Alpha4 and I have no problem in mounting USB HD or USB Pendrive...!

Exactly what I had to do with the Alpha3 and it worked every time.
I've intalled NEXUS MEDIA IMPORTER (pay app) and detects and shows all the USB stick content. From there, you can play movies, view photos and play music from your USB stick (at the moment of plug in your stick) instead the USB stick is not shown for the rest of the system...
So I've seen too, that unplugging the external SD card, sometimes mounts the USB stick plugged in...hope this could help developers...
And I would to thanks the hard work made for this awesome tablet.

after i fortmated A70IT (use Reformat Device in Boot menu), it cannot connect to PC. So i can't copy firmware to upgrade.
Pls help me, how can connect A70IT to PC?
Thanks all.
When you select Upgrade Firmware in the Recovery Menu, it doesn't show up on your PC?

yes. Sometime, show the warning request fortmat Disc I: ( disc of A70) but can't format it. The warning only show in few second and then disappear.
Having trouble with the translation. If you can still get into the Boot Menu, but the ram disk doesn't show up when you select Update Firmware, it sounds like there's some hardware trouble. I'd try to contact support. Someone else may have some ideas, as well.
Thanks all, i found my problem. The cable was broken so i bought the new cable. it's ok.
I installed SDE, UrukDroid 1.0 successfull.
Now, it can not read the SDcard, who can help me this problem?

Does the card works on your pc?
if yes, reformat it and try it on your archos.
if no, your card is propably broken..
yes, it working on PC very good, i formatted many on FAT32 and NTFS but when insert to A70, it not works.

Don't format NTFS, it's not supported on every FW version. Make sure the partition table in MS-DOS type, and make sure the storage scheme on the A70 is set to Fat, not Ext3.

I have latest firmware (version: 2.4.19) in my Archos 101 16GB tablet, rooted using churi method.
Previous firmware worked fine with USB sticks and hard drives, but this 2.4.19 just can't notice anything when USB stick or drive is connected.
Tested using root and normal -> nothing happens when stick/drive is plugged in
Tested connecting to my laptop, using micro-usb cable and that worked fine.
Conclusion: My bigger usb-connector is dead or current firmware has some bugs.
Anyone else have similar problems?
I had this problem too!

Did you get usb working again somehow?
I was wondering, that maybe full re-format, wiping everything and setting up whole system from scratch is again only solution to solve this.
You can see if it's a hardware or software problem, Go to the recovery, and somewhere in the recovery menu you have an option to mount usb storage, if it works it's software, if not, hardware

Found option 'Start USB msc' but this option is only for connecting Archos to PC.
Tested before (yesterday) connecting Archos to PC and that works fine.
I have problem with connecting Archos to usb mass memory.
You mean plug an USB key on your Archos?

Connecting something to bigger USB connector has no effect what so ever to anything, when this was working.. got connected USB-icon to statusline notifications and USB memory appeared to filemanager, but no more.
Reformated, erased, reseted and made complete reinstall to my device, nothing helps and tomorrow my tablet goes back to reseller and they will send it to Archos.
You have the official Archos Android?

Hi, I want show you as connect external HDD to XPERIA mini pro (SK17i). This HDD is 500 GB, USB 2.0.
I made cable for external supply, but you can use a USB HUB with external power supply (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1827217)
AL Mass Storage Manager - application for mounting partition: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=labs.antu.hw.storage&hl=sk
Sorry of my english...
re
Great Work!
i will try it
Does it show in the place where /sdcard/ and /system/ are shown?
nice but app will be use yo view SD/USB1/?
You can change name for mount, so for example you can see HDD/ USB flash disk in - mnt/sdcard/MEDIUM/sda1 .... but you can mounting only in mnt/sdcard folder.
Other connected media you see as sdb, sdc, ...
In application you can see - Base directory
WOW
Incredibly amazing, i wasnt thinking in purchasing the usb adapter cable, but now i think ill have my way with it
Thanks for sharing

You can use the device with the new updated version ICS 4.1.B.0.431? I already have the OTG cable identical to the video, but it only works the mouse or USB keyboard. When I connect a pen drive it does not recognize.
Nice
Where to get this adapter?. link please.. and external power source?. so 2 wires from the hard disk. one into phone for data transfer and one more for power?
I tried connecting USB memory stick, 8 GB 2.0 to my Active.
It connected and that's it. I could not access it thrue Root Browser (payed).

Did you mount partition with AL Mass Storage Manager? If yes, you try other browser manager.

I am on windows 8. how do I view the SG3 sd card files?
Thanks!!!
Use the popular SGS3 UMS App.
Ext SD Card reading is supported, you can't move files through internal sd card and Pc.
Use bluetooth for that.
I've had the same problem many times after changing and testing new ROM's.
You can restart your computer and phone - has worked for me before.
Change ROM - this has worked for me, seemed like a particular ROM didn't like my PC setup / drivers whatever and refused to connect!
Change cable - they don't last that long, I've had to replace 4-5 since my HTC Desire days - all that plugging and unplugging can bust them - they always still charged, but no PC connection.
Try a different USB port - You never know!
Uninstall the drivers on your PC for your S3 - reinstall - use the SDK drivers - or from KIES. I seen users report that the change between a ICS ROM and a JB ROM and vice versa can cause issues, not sure if applies to you.
Has anyone explored the USB support on the Xperia Z4 tablet? If you have, can you confirm that if an external memory device such as a memory stick is connected it disables the internal SD card? If any apps have been transferred to the SD card they then become inaccessible and the Z4 can become unstable. The only way to restart the apps is to remove the memory stick and manually restart the Z4!
This is so serious that I am about to contact Sony and tell them that with its current configuration, the Z4 tablet is unfit for use!
external USB does not work here <- wrong, corrected
I plugged in an USB-Adapter to connect several USB-Sticks. That did not work.
I remember it worked with an ancient Toshiba AT300 Tablet three years ago. Have not used it since then ...
Nowadays I use Software Data Cable but this is no fun (permission wise) on my stock, unrooted Z4 Tablet.
I have a 128 GBytes MicroSD card plugged in but this is no fun (permission wise) on my stock, unrooted Z4 Tablet.
I did not unplug the MicroSD card.
EDIT: I stand corrected by ITotem (next Post #3)
It works - but not automagically (as it does on my Toshiba Tablet). Both - SD Card and external Storage - work simultanously!

I don't own the Sony Xperia Z4 tablet yet... .but have you tried the solution described here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/z4-tablet/general/usb-otg-support-t3147871?
According to him:

If you try to connect USB storage to your Z4 Tablet it seems not to work (tested on 28.0.A.6.8).
But as found out at w ww.coolsmartphone.com/2015/06/27/xperia-z4-tablet-missing-usb-otg-support/ it is! Its only unneeded complicated...
In short: go to "Settings" -> "Xperia Connectivity" -> "USB Connectivity" -> "Detect USB device" while storage is already connected. Then it's showing up in /storage/usbdisk as it should be.
(under "USB Connectivity" -> "Tips for connecting with USB device" you can add a shortcut to quicksettings)
Let's hope Sony will fix this to auto connect as it was working e.g. in Tablet Z. There it is showing up immediately when you plugged it in without a need to touch minimum 3 times!!!!

Thanks for the reply.
I have used the solution mentioned, but the issue is not connecting to the USB memory, which does work as described, but what happens to the Z4 when you do get connected. Losing access to the SD card in the memory expansion slot is a major problem.

Have you tried running an app that you have transferred to the SD card using the standard Android 'Move to SD Card' function while a USB memory stick is installed?
external USB-Stick disables apps moved to SD Card

Yes
DOES NOT RUN - holy cow!
Needs a reboot to join the app pool again.
Bad design/functionality IMO

I have been in touch with Sony 'Xperia Care' about the issues I have raised with the USB support on the Z4 tablet. I have the full transcript, but the following extracts from their email confirm my worst suspicions. They said:
'I can confirm that when a USB device is connected to the tablet the SD card is meant to unmount.'
and
'We would also not recommend using a USB hub on the tablet as this not the intended purpose of connecting a USB device to the tablet, the main one being for external storage. '
What follows is based on my experience so far:
This means that while a USB memory device is attached to the Z4 tablet, any app which has been transferred to the SD card will stop. If an app attempts to run in the background, the Z4 tablet can crash. This has happened on my Z4 tablet.
Using 'Tap here to safely remove USB storage' does not re-mount the SD card. The only way to restore access to the SD card is to restart the Z4 tablet.
On some occasions, both USB memory AND SD based apps work, despite what Xperia Care say! However this not the norm!
Although Sony do not recommend the use of USB hubs, they do work. However:
If the hub offers power to the Z4 tablet, the Z4 will go in to 'charge' mode and disables the OTG data mode.
If the hub is completely non-powered, the Z4 tablet is likely to disable power to the USB port and close it down if you attach multiple devices. It certainly can't power a USB powered hard drive, unlike my LG G3 phone which can!
If the hub powers USB devices but not the Z4 tablet, it seems to work normally. However, the USB implementation on the Z4 can only support ONE memory device, again unlike my LG G3 phone which supports the two I have tried and probably more!
I have told Xperia Care that I think the USB support on the Z4 tablet is a mess!
I was going to start a new thread but then found this. I like to use a mouse with my Z4 - it completes the PC-like setup. However, I have found that whenever I want to use a wireless mouse, the dongle connectd to the OTG cable is not recognized until I reboot the tablet. I wondered if I had a problem but it looks as though it could be the same issue as reported here.
I was looking for a thread for USB experiences on the Z4 tablet and found this. At the same time, I've been experimenting with different setups and also testing the problems cited here. I've had NO problems so far, so I'll give a run down on what I've been running.
I have a USB non-powered hub attached. From that, I'm running wireless keyboard/mouse combo. At the same time, I've attached a powered external Maxell HDD, which happens to be NTFS.
To mount the HDD, I've used ExFAT/NTFS. This opens directly into another required file management app called Total Commander (TC). ExFAT/NTFS needs to be running for the file commander app to access the HDD, but once it is, it appears in the list fine. I can also then switch between SD card browsing and HDD browsing in TC without any problems.
I also tested the concurrent running of apps via SD Card while the HDD is mounted. I moved Firefox over to the SD Card. When I did this, the transfer process unmounted the HDD in the background. So, I had to remount via ExFAT/NTFS, but once done, it ran again without problems. I then concurrently ran Firefox and Total Commander together, switching between the two and found NO problems. Again, I can also switch from the HDD to the SD Card without problems.
Assuming that this is the required level of concurrent use (browsing HDD and using SD Card mounted apps at the same time), then I'd say that Sony must have fixed the problems. There has been a major update to both the Sony UI and to Google's Nougat since this thread was active.
Just to add, I've had several keyboards and mice running at the same time via the one USB hub, without crashes, which was pleasing, though completely pointless
Will try to run some controllers via the USB next.
