i have used the micro SD card to install Copilot and although the installation was done to the phone rather than the storage card it still requires the storage card to run.
Is there a way around this and run copilot without having the micro sd card in as i want to be able to have CoPilot and also get a new micro sd to store music etc on.
Thanks,
Chris
I dont use copilot myslef I use tomtom. However I would suggest that the program and maps voices etc will be to large to fit on the device, why not get a 2 gig micro sd card and have your music on it aswell.
As I said I dont use co pilot but I cant see you getting everything on the device. I did read somewhere that you can get a 4 gig card but never seen one myself or indeed have never had confirmation it will work.
Hope this helps
Never thought of transferring the Copilot SD data to a new bigger card through the PC as i thought it was too small but with the adapter will obviously fit in the card reader no problem. Thanks alot
i have a SanDisk 16gb micro SD card and recently it has been making file explorer crawl and crash when im trying to navigate my data. i tried using total commander to access the memory card hoping that it was just file explorer giving me a hard time and it is doing almost the same thing in total commander (it is slightly more manageable in total commander) this did not start happening untill a few weeks ago. is there a chance that a corrupted file would be causing this issue or possibly i just have the card too full up? (its not at capacity yet but it is about 1 gig away)
is anybody else having this problem or does anyone have some insight for me? any help is much appreciated.
Chances are it's only a Class 2 card. Those are extremely sllllllooooooowwwww.

correct, it is class 2, but it used to be no problem whatsoever untill a week or so ago, anyone else got any clues?
It could be a combination of the fact that it's Class 2 and you loaded it to near capacity. I wouldn't think a corrupted file could do that, although I might be wrong. It could also just be a bad card. I've gotten a few that work fine for a couple days and then stop working completely. I would go with a higher class in the future (or a lower capacity Class 2 card).
Perform a CheckDisk/Scandisk(equivalent for your OS) on the card either via a Card Reader w/ an adapter, or connecting your phone to your PC in Disk Mode. Kind of fishy that it would happen all of a sudden. Flash media doesn't have noticeable file fragmentation issues.
You could also back up everything you have on the card, reformat the card, and reload everything back to it.
Hopefully this may help.
thanks for your responses, i will definately buy a higher class card in the future. how exactly do i perform that scan on my card though? i have an sd adapter so i can plug it directly into my computer. i use vista for my OS

Plug the card into the adapter, and in file explorer on your PC, right-click on the drive that is the SD card. Choose "properties", then the "tools" tab. There you will see the option to "check this drive for errors"
And for future reference, this is the same procedure you would use to do a "chkdsk" on any drive connected to your pc. It will check for signs of defects to the physical media.
I've got an GT-P7500, and it will not read any USB Sticks.
Using the Samsung connection kit.
tried with 15 different USB sticks, all FAT32 formatted, all sizes 1-16gb.
A friend uses a 4gb stick in a GT-P7510, i tested that one, didn't work
Other things like usb mouse works, but not usb stick.
Anyone got any suggestions ?
Wonder if there is something wrong with it.
How do you know it isn't working? What directory are you looking at? What does the notification bar show? Which connector are you using? Is USB debugging on?
Also this is more a Q/A...
I'm hoping this thread is still alive because I am having the same problem. @ajnindlo I'm using the standard Samsung USB Connector with a 8gb usb stick. I've tried with USB Debugging on & off and I get the same message. "Damaged USB" and asked me to reformat.
I am using a Mac BUT I did format the stick as a ms-dos fat format.
Please help...
Thank you
PS. I know this is more of a q&a place, didn't know where else to post and didn't find any other with this problem but here. Please redirect to correct location if you know of a solution. Thank you
Just i hace received my USB kit and it works perfectly, my USB has 16 g and i haven't do anything to work, conected and work.

I had a 32 GB sd card and it also wouldn't be detected by my Galaxy Tab. But, I plugged it into my phone, plugged my phone into the computer, formatted the sd card and when I put in my Gtab, it worked.
I got my connection kit today but its not working at all.
Got 2 adaptors 1 for sd card and 1 for usb connection they both dont work.
Got no status bar message or anything.
Do I miss something here?

one catch that I have realized is that for proper identification of the USB Stick, the tablet must be in english language.
My friend had a hard time figuring out why his tablet won't show up any notification when a USB Stick was connected, whereas mine shows the "My Files" app showing the storage folder and all the contents of the stick, joking around I told him that was because my tablet was in english and his tablet was not.
Anyway, Astro file explorer doesn't work with USB Sticks, Use ES File Explorer instead and look in /mnt/ folder for usbdrive , there should be your content.
Nope still not working. No files found.
Feels like my device doesnt support usb host.
Is that possible?

Connect the usb stick, open ES File explorer and go to /mnt/usbdrive folder, if you can't find the folder (which is not on the sdcard) you need to configure ES File explorer to get out of the sdcard directory, the usbdrive folder is always present even if you don't have any usb drive connected
I had similiar problems with my 16GB P7510. It would only recognize any of my Sandisk sticks and a brand new PNY only at 30% of the time. The only stick it was reliable with was an ancient 256MB stick I had. I worked fine with my camera.
I ended up returning it for a 32GB P7510 and have not had any problems with any of the sticks. At the time I didn't think the tablet was defective but it appears it was.

I have exact the same issue, but it's strange, some SD has this issue, some don't.
"Damaged USB"
I found a trick, but it solved my problem only once: format SD card by a digital camera (Canon powershot) , SD was now recognized by Tab10.1
Putting some extra files on it by PC ... insert SD to Tab10.1 ... same issue again :crying:
Have tried several SD formats & sizes ... notting helps
Did someone knows a solution to solve this problem

Rooted, TASK 14 Rom
Try to reboot, it worked for me.

Correct ... but after a second or third time connecting same SD , issue returns
Have tried this, waiting for a while does helps time to time ... so I guess it's maybe "memory" or "kernel" (system) related.
It seems we have the same TASK14 ROM + Pershoot's kernel.
Strange things.
I made the test by unroot my device and went back to factory stock ... it look like the issue is solved for 90% ... it appears when you disconnect and reconnect to fast after the 1st disconnection .
usb not recognised
Nothing happens when i plug (several) usb sticks. /mnt/usbdrive is empty.
Any idea?
charging Problem
You must Check that Your usb Debugging is On or Not as it creates problems and this will be stopping You device from Accepting Usb Sticks..
I found that FAT 'sdCard's would mount , but that NONE of my NTFS sticks would mount
All my sticks are NTFS , so that was unacceptable.
rooted 7500 and 6800
Installed 'Paragon NTFS&FHS', from the AndroidMarket and all files now popup in 'MyFiles' when I insert the usb with the adaptor
I have the Samsung Connection Kit containing as USB and a SD adapter. The USB adapter works fine, but the SD adapter doesn't work at all. All it does is starting the TuneIn Radio app when it is connected. I uninstalled the app and now connecting the adapter has no effect at all. Any suggestions?
Hello,
I have a weird problem. Today I inserted my new Samsung microo SDHC card 16Gb into my iconia a101. Now I have the problem, that I am not able to connect to my Wifi, when the card is inserted. When I remove the card I do not have any connection problems at all. Maybe anyone has a solution to this.
thanks in advance and kind regards Akku
That's strange. Here's a possibility... maybe the antenna connector popped loose and is making intermittant contact. I know that the antenna connects relatively close to the SD card slot, so it's possible that it loses contact when a card it inserted. In the link below, aznmade disassembled his A100 due to a wifi problem, so you might want to follow his walk-through to see if something's loose.

Thanks for your quick answer,
but that's most probably not the problem. When I remove the card, connect to my router and then reinsert the card, the connection stays stable. I also tried other sd cards, but all showed the same behaviour except one. The card I am able to use is a faked china 8gb sd card. Faked means that it is a 2gb sd card, but shows as an 8gb. That means if you write more than 2gb data to it you will override existing data.
regards Akku
Have you tried reformatting it with fat32?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Sure. The card itself is recognized by the tablet and R/w is possible. But the wifi refuese to connect when the sd card is inserted.
It seems to be a general problem - if you look for reviews on amazon, some buyers have the same problem... very strange...
According to the Acer Support with the update to 2.004.02 (A101) the issue should be resolved... any feedback on this?
Change the channel!!!
I had the same problem. I was on the road for a couple of weeks and purchased a PNY SDHC 8g for my a100. Didn't have a problem until I walk in the door at home. Then wi-fi started connecting and disconnecting. I fired up the hotspot on my Razr and bingo the a100 liked that much better than my net gear router. So I compared the configuration of my Razr to the Netgear Router and found that the router was set to auto channel. I changed the channel to 1 and a100 connected and was very happy. I am sure there is issue with the addition of the SD Card installed but it certainly isn't a hardware issue so keep the tools in the tool box and try checking the router config.
What another forum found was that it depends on the type of SD card - I have a Trancend SD - no problems - the same tablet with Sandisk SD - no connection... whatever that means
Hello. Just got my Ouya yesterday. Having a bit of a hard time getting roms to work in my emulators.
I have a couple of questions regarding this..
1, Is an attached usb stick regarded as an sd card in the settings menu?
2. Are there any file managers available for the Ouya at this time. Preferably ES File explorer for its network capabilities, or something comparable
I'm also on a mac, and can't get the Ouya to recognize even fat formatted usb sticks.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks

1. Sadly, no. This is a point of annoyance for me, actually, since it means you cannot install apps/games to the USB drive as you could
with an SD card.
2. As for file managers, the OUYA does not have any built in but you can go to the "Make" menu and open the web browser. From there you can web search for an ES File Explorer APK (or create a backup on your phone and send it to dropbox, then access it from your browser).
a. I personally used my browser to install Box and Dropbox so that I can backup apps from my phone and send them to my browser.
It makes the side-loading process easier. I now have Amazon app store, emulators like N64oid and XBMC on my OUYA.
As for being on a Mac, I am not sure how formatting works on that.
UPDATE (just now haha): I will be trying this to see if it can be used to move apps to a USB stick. That would be brilliant! Will update with results.

I've create a single fat32 partition with the default settings in linux/KDE on my drive. When I connect the drive to ouya using USB, it gets mounted at /mnt/usbdrive. I can see in the logcat output vold handling all the mounting the same as it would for an SD card. There are no other signs though, that anything is being mounted. There is no environmental variables like EXTERNAL_STORAGE pointing to this location. It does not appear in the settings->storage menu like it does on other devices. You kind of just have to know where it is and then you can browse to that location in your apps.
I'm in the same boat. I'm sitting here trying to get my 500gb 2.5" portable laptop HDD to load with my roms. At first I thought it was because of NFTS. So I formatted. Nothing. Then I wiped all the partitions into 1 huge exFat partition. Nothing. Plugged in my 32gb USB Stick that is NTFS. Nothing. Grabbed a MicroSD-USB adapter and used my 16gb from my MK808. Nothing. Grabbed my old 16gb and reformatted it as FAT32. Nothing.
Nothing is reading on my Ouya. Wtf?
None of my apps are reading anything.
It cant be exfat; it cant be NTFS. You need to make it fat32. There's something in windoze where it refuses to create a fat32 partition over a certain size, but you can do it on just about any other computer. You can make your whole 500GB hard drive fat32 and ouya will see it fine. Or you can wait until we have more development to enable ntfs support. Don't hold your breath for exfat, since M$ is charging big licensing fees for it.
No I think my USB port is shot.
I've formatted several USB thumb drives to FAT32 and it still refuses to see any of them. Really sucks because the sole reason I bought the OUYA was to load all my roms on it. The bad thing is that they are so backordered that I'll just have to deal with it for a while.

How are you trying to test if they work? Because MOST people's problem is that it doesn't show up on the OUYA itself, it's all app specific and there is no directions built in to find USB storage at this time.
Grab a USB Keyboard or Mouse and try that to see if it works, at least that way you can rule out a bad USB port.
I've tried multiple different USB devices all with 0 problems and it seems like the people who go through 3 or 4+ different ones just don't know where to look.
I'm NOT saying this is your problem exactly or that you're dumb in anyway, you may have a bad unit, just trying to help with what I've observed while helping others on this forum.
And to address the FAT32 vs NTFS: Plenty of people have confirmed that NTFS works, including myself. It was rumored at the beginning that only FAT32 worked, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Good shot on a USB mouse or keyboard. I don't have anything wired but i have some RF wireless that should work. I've tried everything else. All of the emulator apps see sdcard1 and sdcard0. One shows internal storage and the other shows nothing. Won't even show folders. It shows this regardless if its plugged in or not.
The light on my USB lights up and so does my HDD. So the power is there but no communication. I'll have to look at it closer tomorrow.
I got it from gamestop and it was opened. Looked used actually. The tie wraps on the cables were gone, the internal box was bent, there was some kind of fiber/hair in the box, and fingerprints all over it, and the batteries were in the controller. I got 10% off and a free 1yr warranty. So they'll just have to give me a new one later. Its the only one available within 100 miles. Best buys out too.
I'm an IT admin so even if it "kinda" works, it shouldn't be this flaky. 4 storage devices and all not working. Someone probably blew out the USB and returned it, and GameStop tried to sell it as new.
Edit
I do have my PS3 with its wired miniUSB. I'll try that tomorrow.

Good luck! At least you can always take it back to gamestop once they ahve another one to get it, but I hope it doesn't come down to it for you!
Holy crap my PS3 is working?!
Now I'm totally confused.
EDIT!!!!!!!!
Got it working. I ended up having to do a Factory Reset. Here is the quote I posted from the Ouya Forums:

Well I just fixed it!!!
I just got my OUYA yesterday and immediately threw on my 640gb HDD but it wouldn't see it. I kept screwing with it and screwing with it. Nothing. 32gb Flash drive. Nothing. 16gb Flash Drive. Nothing. 16gb microSD-USB. Nothing. I screwed with Fat32, NTFS. Nothing worked! I thought my USB was blown. Someone suggested trying a USB device so I used my PS3 controller. BOOM. Worked. USB Storage... Nothing.
I'm an IT Admin with a N7 and a Galaxy Nexus. I know my way around.
Well in this thread, I saw someone did a Factory Reset and that worked. WTH right? So I did a factory reset and low and behold, my HDD is reading like a champ.
So if you have USB HDD issues, use the Formatter Tool to format it to FAT32: http://ouyaforum.com/showthread.php?...ll=1#post35834
If that doesn't work. Factory Reset and set it back up!

Glad you go it working! Makes me wonder what the problem was in the first place, since it worked for HID but not storage. Maybe bad install or update of drivers.
I dunno. First thing it did when I turned it on was an update. I've spent all day screwing with it and dredging through forums. There are tons of people who have had issues after the last update, where it WAS working and magically stopped. So I'm thinking it was a firmware issues, perhaps something they changed. Since mine was probably used, perhaps it had drivers in there and got screwed up after the update. Who knows.
I do plan on swapping this out with a new one as soon as Gamestop has them in stock, since he was so kind to give me a 1 yr warranty. The USB port isn't tight and the connections feels sloppy. At first I was thinking that it wasn't making a good connection. For all I know, someone had an early edition and swapped it out with a new release day model. Like you said, something makes me wonder. I don't want anything else to happen down the road because of mal-use of a previous owner.
