Hi all,
i have a bit of a problem with the USB devices i want to connect to my phone.
I have one Transcend 8GB and for it i get a message that it draws too much power and i can't mount it.
The only one i was able to mount is a 1GB Transcend.
Can anyone recommend some USB device that will work for sure? No smaller than 8GB.
Thanks
8gb SanDisk Cruzer worked.

thanks i found it on ebay for a good price
but before i order, maybe somebody had some luck with 16GB stick?
there's also 16gb SanDisk Cruzer for 10 dollars which sounds good - should it work?
Haven't tried any 16gb one's. Srry.

i wll but shopping from ebay usually takes 1 month to get to my place, so you'll have to wait
for me it's not urgent and even if it does not work, i can always use a spare usb stick
But usb hub. Connect the usb and violaa

I was planning to get 32gb sd card for my x10i so i was wondering will it work with it. Reviews around the web say that max card cant be bigger than 8 or 16 while some say it can be 32 :s
Anyone knows which one is true or where i can get that information in the phone. I dont want to waste all that money if it wont work.
Thx in advance and sorry for bad english

I am running a 32Gb class 4 SD card I bought off Amazon on mine right now. Great as I have 20Gb on it so need the space. Only thing I find is it adds a little time to your boot up as takes a little longer to loads your apps that are on SD. If you use apps2sd that is.

I need more space for music so I don't think it will change my boot time. Either way I don't mind I'm glad it works
Thx for reply

Sandisk 32gb class 4 working just fine here from amazon. Be careful if you are thinking of picking up a cheap one off ebay. The place is riddled with fakes. 32gb support was added in firmware update so if your at 1.6 you may want to check.

It depends what the external sd is and how big it is in memory size, some work and some don't.
I have a 1 tb external and it doesn't register on my phone not even if I repartition it.

sh^t im planning on getting a 1TB external HD this one in fact

i suppose i could go through the process of using OTG Cable with my Nexus 7 and then onto my phone but it's too much hard work to be honest, all i wanna do is to get music onto my phone from the external HD, this isn't good, ill have to reconsider my options unless anyone knows a better way?

As it's made by samsung it could work, mine is Seagrave which doesn't work
You could always send it back if it doesn't

Ah figured out how to use my hdd by installing an app called paragon ntfs then plugging my wired hub into my otg cable then plugging my wired extended hdd into that.
It's a very annoying process just to plug a hard drive in but it worked :thumbup:

Okay what I did was have my hub connected to the mains which is also connected to my otg cable of my note 10.1
Installed the paragon app that reads ntfc data on a hard drive (some are fat32 so don't need this app)
Then connected my external 1tb hard drive which is connected to the mains to the hub and all my files showed up on my note 10.1
Hope that's easier to understand
Oops sorry exactly the same process with a galaxy s3, get confused between forums

I have a roadcam in my car that records onto an sd card and I was wondering if there is a way to take out the sd card and connect it to my note 2 maybe using the usb plug so that I could backup the video recordings using an app called dropspace to my dropbox. Thanks.

If I understand your question correctly what you're wanting to do is pull the files off the Sd card and upload them with your phone.
If thats what you want to do you could just get a USB OTG cable and a SD card reader that is made to be plugged in to a USB port. That should be all you need to get this working. You can get both of those from Amazon, just dont go with an uber cheap OTG cable. There have been reports, on Amazon and XDA, about some of the cheap OTG cables hard bricking/burning up. Last I checked they didnt know exactly what it did, they said that the devide reacted like the battery had been pulled and the phone, or Nexus 7 and a bunch of other tablets, went off and no matter what they were unable to get it to come back on. The OTG cable I have was about $10 and it works perfectly, theres no reason to pay the exorbitant fee Samsung wants for their official cables seeing how the only difference would be the name on the cable.

Damn, what kind of cable did get because I ordered one of the .80 cent ones and now I'm afraid to use it. Maybe I'll use it on one of my old phones to test it.

I got an otg cable for $1 and it works perfect. I've hooked up a computer mouse and a 360 controller so far but I haven't tried an SD reader yet.

Hello, I'm going to buy OTG cable + USB2.0 card reader + microSD 64gb card (class 4).
Will this be readeble by USB host mode on Xperia P?
No one has tried I think

It will work only to the maximum extension limit of your handset which is generally 32GB...

It is said that it actually works... Some have made it
One thing is memory card internal and one thing is memory card mounted via USb host. I'm going the second method and I heard somewhere the phone is able to mount 64gb flash drive. I have tested the otg mount on 1.5tb hd drive and it's identified pretty good. So I assume the mount will work with 64 gb flash as well. The think I don't know is if the power consumption won't exceed allowed value. My old M2 card rmakes this problem.

This happens when is about to die. My oem card died like that. Bought a Sammy and np.
Let me guess...its sandisk?

Mine does this to with a 32GB sandisk :/
I did buy a 32GB Samsung card but that died more or less straight away D;
so atm im still using the sandisk even though it likes to tell me its inserted/damaged/empty
Annoying!
The only thing i can suggest is to buy a samsung memory card from a trusted dealer
(mine was from ebay and most probably why it died)
but before it did, it worked fine in the note 2 gave me no pain

I had the exact problem with my sandisk 32GB ultra, but i got it swapped out and the new one works flawlessly. Think they had a bad batch (had to wait for a new shipment until i could swap my card)
I contacted SanDisk through the website.
They will rma my card who had the same problem.
Expecting my replacement next week.

same problem with pny 32 g
had the same problem for a while then my card suddenly died . apparently the reader on a lot of Samsung phones easily kill sd cards so be sure to back up very often
