Hey I currently havea Western Digital 500gig external hard drive formatted as HFS and I tried plugging it in to my USB cable and nothing appeared. Does anyone know of a way to get the GS3 to recognize HFS-formatted drives over USB OTG?

You would need a custom kernel that has built-in support for the filesystem. Same thing goes for NTFS.
I´m trying to figure out why the pendrive I'm connecting to my One X via OTG is showing the error Damaged USB Storage.
It is formatted to FAT32, and is 64GB. Is there a problem with pendrives this big? I have a 2GB which works fine.
I'm not rooted, I have the latest JB update.
Thanks.

try to format to only fat...not fat32 and try again...if it doesn't work then it's a too big usb stick ...but i can't imagine because someone had copied files from a 1tb storage to the one x with otg cable

Thanks, ill give it a go.
One more thing, if I root and format the pendrive to NTFS will it work? I read there is some apps on the market that work.
I hooked up my 2tb external he'd and it worked just fine. It was ntfs format and I used usb otg helper to mount it.
Everyday I use my 8gb fat32 format without issues.

Are you rooted?
I`ve just found out 4GB is the max for FAT! or is that the max it can hold?
Any way I cant find a way to format it to FAT.
Sorry, yea I'm rooted. Running viper 3.2.2 jb
Format it via device manager in windows.

just try the usb storage as ntfs and it have to work fine...because ntfs is unlimited and yes...try that and you will be happy
Yeh I suppose I'll have to root sooner or later, just don't like the hassle of saving and restoring stuff.
Thanks guys!
I found the same thing, damaged usb. But that's only 8gb. More like a formatting issue then I should think.
My 2,5" HDD 250 (FAT32) works great but pendrive 4GB (FAT32) does not :/ Strange.

Are you using a compatible kernel? With a OTG Y Cable?

Using FAK kernel 1.3.6 and yes using Y cable, usb hub, keyboard, mouse, gamepad all working.
I'm also forced to reboot after using otg else I cannot charge or access files on the phone.
Does that mean you can now access your USB storage devices?

No - other devices work fine. but not usb storage devices.
Even rebooting does not allow me to access or mount usb storage devices.
If i have a usb storage device connected and I reboot some random apps disappear... until I disconnect otg and reboot again.

First of all why do u need usb otg cable to backup existing rom ?just backup in yr ext sd or internal memory .
By the way usb otg cable is just to connect to another usb drive or use to wake up dead device into download mode .
This usb otg commonly is generic type no brand (in my country )

twrp allows one to backup to usb otg, I personally would find it easier to backup to a usb flash drive and leave the space on my ext sd and internal memory for 'other' things
@wulfie66 Any that work are the best kind
Seriously though, I have found no difference between a budget one bought for £1 and a branded one for £5.
I use one of these without any issue http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Micro-USB...267?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item2a399909d3
But, my preferred OTG backup / file transfer means is a micro SD in one of these puppies http://www.meenova.com/ which needs no cable and is much tidier IMO.

What format is the HDD in?
It's just a seagate external hard drive that I used to plug in and transfer files super easy

That wasn't the question what format is the HDD in like NTFS or FAT32?
I would assume fat 32

I think it had something to do with debug settings in development options. I had installed Andromeda and left it checked. All working fine now. Thanks for your time :good:
