OTG Cable + USB Memory card reader would be the easiest way in my opinion.
just plug the card reader into the OTG cable into the phone then load the pics from "USB Storage" in "my files" on the handset

thanks

Any way to view Gamecam pics on incredible, out in the field

I was wondering if there might be a way to view my game cam pics on my incredible out in the field. My Gamecam has a 1/16" TV out port and a mini USB port, and it saves the pics on a micro SD card. If I were to be able to find a male mini USB to male micro usb. Would the incredible recognize it and would I be able to view them. Or if I put the micro SD card in my phone, would it find the pics.

just sticking in the sd card should work..remember to unmount before removal. Use astro or a file manager to navigate your gamecams sd card..

Will my tablet recognise my Sony Handycam? Can i upload videos to youtube from it?

Hey guys
So basically I have a Sony Handycam DCR-HC19E camcorder, and was wondering if i plugged it into my galaxy tab using the samsung usb adapter thing, will it recognise it and allow me to take and transfer files to and from the tab?
As i want to upload some videos to youtube but it wont work on my computer?
So im basically asking if anybody has got mass storage access to devices they have plugged into the tab 10.1
Thanks in advance for any help
Adam
I have a Sony dcr-sr100. It mounts to my galaxy tab 10.1 on stock firmware.
I have found that " high" powered USB devices are rejected by this tab, which is annoying. But i have found that how you connect the devices matter also.
E.g. if the adaptor is plugged in then i use my USB drive to the adapter is does not work.
If my USB drive is plugged into the adapter then into the tab it usually works, if not pull out and try again right away.
If you can get a powered USB hub, this will help for connecting more devices. Generic keyboard & mice work fine ( if not " high" powered)
USB mass storage otg app in the market will help to mount more drives at once and enable access to NTFS formatted drives which are not supported on the stock firmware.

This is the one I got.

I don't see much point paying more than this.
Also the " card reader" versions are designed to only mount one card at a time since that is how the stock device handles otg. But if you already have USB card reader your happy with, it can be used with USB mass storage OTG app from the market. ( Which also adds NTFS support).

Sprite cheers. I may just get a 3 pound one off Amazon, then see if it works

I got the corded version, as I thought it was more risky using the "Block" style one that might break the connector 30pin if it was knocked too hard.
There is rick of the corded version breaking on the cable, but it is a cheap replacement fix.

Ok, what information do you need?
You have made a statement but not asked a question. Answers to your statement have been covered above also.

Use external card reader with GNex

Is it possible to use a micro usb cable with a female standard USB plug on the other end and plug a USB SD card reader in to get photos off the card? Does that make sense? Basically I'm trying to get photos off a SD card without access to a computer.

Not sure but could you just upload them somewhere? Dropbox, Drive, Box.net, etc?

Email the pics to yourself or use cloud storage.

USB OTG Cable?

Firstly, is it worth getting a USB OTG cable? What can you use it for? Do you have one?
Second, which one should I get for the Galaxy Nexus? I've seen these two:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Con...=1365625468&sr=1-2&keywords=samsung+otg+cable
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Micro-Cable...qid=1365625284&sr=1-23&keywords=usb+otg+cable
Which is better? Is there any difference? Appreciate the help.
Thanks,
Python.
First you have to get the app called Stick Mount if you want to use usb flash drives. But the OTG cable can be used for a lot of things, keyboard, mice,
usb flash drives. I've seen a youtube video where the guy uses a hub and uses all 3.

It's also my understanding that you can also flash leaked ota's from stock recovery with an otg cable.

Use a cable to extend storage like this
Mini MicroSD Reader
A mini microsd reader for android phones and tablets

I was going to get the Nexus Media Importer. But, which cable should I get?
I have a generic usb OTG.
I have successfully used a mouse, usb flash drive, keyboard.
The only thing I couldn't use was my CDMA internet stick.
If that would have worked then it would have really been awesome!

I would say just go for the generic or regular OTG cable.

Thanks. So, the second product (second link in OP) would work?
Also, would this work with the Galaxy Nexus: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cablesson-MicroUSB-HDMI-Female-Adapter/dp/B007K8NNOA/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

Yes, have fun with it, I am also going to buy one to experiment with. I'm not sure about the Cablesson one. Regular OTG yes

I'm not buying it for another week so if you get yours before that, let me know if it works.
Who should I ask to see if the Cablesson MHL cable is compatible with the GNex?
Deff buy it... I have transfer files/movies from my phone to a SD card..... Since my PC doesn't recognize my phone.

How much can you do using USB OTG with an unrooted Galaxy Nexus? Most importantly, can you use a memory card reader to copy files from the memory card to the phone or use it to upload the files to Dropbox?
I'm asking on behalf of my sister. I don't have access to her phone so I can't simply try it out. I know USB OTG works great on my rooted Galaxy SIII but I've never had a Nexus device.

U can't do much on unrooted nexus since u need stickmount which needs superuser to grant it permission to access ur phone

As of 4.2 there is native support for USB OTG on the Galaxy Nexus so you don't need any third party app. You can use it without root USB device is mounted as /usbdisk. Try X-plore from the Play Store which shows a separate drive for the USB device you have connected.

I have tried on my unrooted Galaxy Nexus 4.2.2. with stock ROM, with an original Samsung OTG cable, but nothing happens.
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

See if there's an option in settings>storage as Mount USB storage, if not there use an app such as stick mount or USB OTG helper. Even for using those apps the phone should recognize when a storage device is connected, the pen drive/card reader should light up.
If option is there and still not mounting then any of your devices may be improper check your OTG cable with other phones, your pen drive/card reader.
Clean the contacts of cable and your USB device. Best way to confirm working is to boot to recovery and connect, USB storage is always mounted in recovery mode.

Any decent file explorer should also be able to see mounted storage, especially given 4.2. You may have to browse to root and poke around until you find the appropriate /mnt folder, but set a bookmark (your explorer supports bookmarks, right?) and that should be all she wrote. StickMount is also great for me.
OTG has been really helpful for playing media off of the occasional flash drive, and while using a mouse isn't all too helpful, playing with a full keyboard can make for a surprisingly good experience.

Powered Usb hub to connect external drive

I have the original Samsung usb adapter for my note 10.1 and it works great. If like to be able to connect my camera and a usb powered external drive to my note. I know the note won't power usb devices. Had anyone had any luck using a powered Usb hub to connect usb powered devices to the note?

Ordered one of these today. Someone commented it allows them to connect their external hard drive to their S4 so hopefully it will work on the Note 10.1. I'll report back once I get it and try it out. Specifically I'm hoping it will enable me to copy directly from my camera to the drive for a backup with both devices connected to the hub. Will be pretty slick and totally eliminate my need for a laptop when traveling.

Yeah, there are some forums that discussed about that. If u connect to external power source, then it will work fine

Just reporting back the usb hub works perfectly. Connecting to my NTFS drive and using a card reader (my DSLR uses CF and Iwant to copy all files not just import/copy JPG files) and am able to easily copy files back/forth from my external drive powered by the hub. You will need an OTG app, this is what I've found works best for me but I'm sure a lot is just personal preference on the UI.
