I bought a sandisk 128GB dual usb drive with the assumption that it will work as a OTG usb for my Note 3, but every time I plug it into the phone, it would say "USB mass storage connected", then immediately it would say "USB mass storage removed safely".
I installed Stickmount, stickmount says that it has mounted it, but I can not find it anywhere using Root Explorer.

Have you tried looking in the /mnt/ folder? It might not be called by a standard name. You can open the /mnt folder in ES Explorer (or whatever file browser you use) and see what shows up. Then install your drive and refresh to see what the drive is called.
I've always used Stickmount (though you need root) and rarely have problems mounting storage - I don't know if it's still required!
32gb sandisk
I use the 32gb dual USB on my rooted note 3 and it runs fine without having to install any additional apps to enable it. Could it be the size that's causing the issue?

Hello, I'm using a 64 Gb Sandisk Ultra Dual and it works fine. I suppose you should check if you changed its format type. In case it is a fat32 it must work so ask for a refund or change... Not a matter of Gb, since I purchased a 200 Gb lexar microsd and also tried it as otg with no issues...
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Assuming the drive was new when you plugged it in it should be somewhere in the directory.. The only time I had issues similar to this was after a changed the format to EXFAT over FAT32
one question on this SANDISK Flash Drive Ultra Dual Drive 128 GB
it's possible to create two partitions: one for use with the notebook , the other as an external sd phone and install a second rom to do as dual boot ?

[App] mount NTFS Ext2/4 external hard drives & usb flash storage .no 4GB limitation
I found this application in markert https://market.android.com/details?id=com.skidmrk.umswatcherotg that let you mount and read any usb storage device whatever its format , I tried it and I got my 1tb NTFS hard drive to show on my tab , it works with sd cards and portable usb flash drives
I cannot get this app to work for the life of me on SGT 10.1 [P7500] With ICS CM9.
I have tried anything and everything, all with no success.
This app just seems to hang in ICS. Any suggestions on how to make this work?

Tried this app on ICS, but it doesn't even load up - it says I need to download a newer version of busybox, then it freezes at around 96-99% of downloading it.
It seems to partially work (it read some of my FAT thumb drives) but it didn't read my 2TB NTFS USB disk. Still hoping to get it to work somehow

are you guys talking about external hard drives (lets say 1tb) with a power source or just straight up usb powered?
I was under the impression that our tabs can only read NSF drives that have an AC power source as appose to power by usb from the tab.
I was thinking about purchasing this drive but not sure if the tablet will read it.. I know my laptop would obviously.

Other than the Samsung USB connection kit you can go eBay and search cheaper one. I got one USB adapter with SD card slot together.
Works for me
This app totally solved my problem (using galaxy tab as a car computer). Now I can mount a large capacity hard drive full of all my music.
I just got the USB OTG cable I ordered. It detects keyboard and mouse just fine and they work, but how do I view the contents of the USB flash drive I attached? Will it be in the form of a folder?
I also tried attaching a USB dualshock gamepad (generic) and it doesn't seem to register on Gameboid (when I set keymaps).
Currently, I'm using Rage Kernel + MiniCMSandwich Lite. Anybody have ideas they can share to help me get these to work?
It should be inside sdcard directory n will be appear in folder named usbstorage.

i've been testing so many flash drive 2gb up to 32gb, and i said not all flash drive can be mount, maybe it's due to the flash drive which want higher voltage, i can mount 16gb or 32gb toshiba flash drive without proble, but when i try 8gb from another vendor let say it 'team', it just detect but cant be mount. so my suggestion just read the label when u wanna buy a new flash drive n make sure it can be operate under 4-6volt
Hello. I am running very low on RAM (internal memory) on my Original Droid RAZR. I am aware that there are root apps that use SD Card memory as RAM. Some apps are: "RAM Manager" and "Swapit RAMEXPANDER by ROEHSOFT". You can get them in the Play Store.
Video of one of the apps:
Will this actually work? Thanks.
wait...ram or internal memory?? ram can't be changed but you can increase your internal memory by swapping it with your sd card...in razr its easy to do so...you do need root though
you do that by changing the "sdcard-ext" to "sdcard" and sdcard to sdcard-ext"

Sorry, I am getting them confused. I meant to say Internal Memory. So I can just swap it with ALL of my SD Card space? Or can I choose how much? and with what app do I do this with? Thanks for reply.

He is trying to use some extra storage space on his sdcard as a sort of page file or swap file to give him more memory for the OS to run in I think. Who knows with people, myself included, interchanging the terms memory, RAM, and storage. I do it, but it is inadvertant.

Yes that is exactly what I want to do. Is it possible without root?
No its isn't!
After rooting you ccan make a 'partition' on your sd card that will be assigned to the phone memory. You can use link to sd for this and make partition through CWM...once you read about rooting youll get to know about CWM..so search around this forum..

It seems that you missed some of the updates of the app, when you mount it ONCE it kepps there always, there's an option to set on boot and auto-dismount /re-mount when you plug / unplug from PC so no worries at all at any time, since I first insalled that app 3 weeks ago I never went back to set nothing, why would you mount and unmount each time? or is another app which you are talking about

Hi folks,
I just attempted to access a microSD card formatted as exFAT with this adapter (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B013OIGJFE/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_4e-pwbFQRCK91). Although the card was detected I got the message that the format wasn't supported.
The phone did reformat the card as FAT32 which works fine but not for files over 4GB. A bit sad that exFAT isn't supported.
This is shocking ! To date all the newer Androids I had used has no issues supporting exfat format. It is indeed strange if exfat is not supported
This indeed is very strange....exFat is the new standard for external storage...how could Google overlook this?
Cost.. Exfat requires license and $$$
I'd like someone else to test it though.... Sometimes phones are picky about the microsd card and don't detect it properly

I have marshmallow on two devices and exFAT does not work. It's unfortunate and as it stands I have no portable ways to transfer files. I even connected to my computer and it didn't detect the internal storage.
I am going to be using Elementalx kernel as it supports exFat and I need it. I have a 128gb external sdcard that I use.

Not sure if you know, as default when you connect to your computer the default connection is 'charge only' you have to pull the notification down and choose 'MTP' connection.

Solid explorer with its otg plugin can access my exfat formatted media even though marshmallow displays the unsupported media notification.
This is on the nexus 5 though, my 6p should be arriving tomorrow.
Has anybody tried StickMount for exFAT support?
So I'm using the ElemantalX kernel and I still get warnings about the card not being a supported format

However now when I launch ES File Explorer I get a notice that only FAT32 and NTFS are supported ( I'm assuming it detects the card and the exFAT format). I've tried in other file explorers and can't seem to find where USB mounts.
EDIT: just tested using StickMount and I'm able to read/write without issue. However I'm still on the ElemantalX kernel.

Just use EXT4, very easy to get windows to read that as well.

This seems like the best solution. However, after some digging it appears that ext2fsd is only REALLY meant for EXT2 and EXT3/4 work in compatibility mode. However, ext4 seems to use an inode of 256 by default which is not supported by ext2fsd. If you can format your card as EXT4 inode 128 it should be fine.
However I just found this... Paragon makes an EXT driver for Windows 10 and its freeware for personal use (but needs to be registered). I think this is the path I'll take. Thanks for the feedback!
http://www.paragon-drivers.com/extfs-windows/
Solid Explorer with the OTG plugin works just fine (although as mentioned above, the compatibility error still comes up). No need for root, custom kernels, etc.
