Use external card reader with GNex - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

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?

XDA IIi - such a thing as a USB adapter

Hi,
I am in the process of selecting a photo storage device - basically a portable hard disk with a USB connector. However I'd like to use the screen on my XDA to view photos on the device (and use other files on there).
Is there an adapter available that will let my XDA IIi read the USB device via its MMC/SD slot, or any other way to read such a device?
Many thanks for any help or advice ...
the xda's cant do usb host
but with xda2's you may be able to get the backpack and then use
a CF usb host card
but i never heard about anybody who did it
i dont know if the xda2 backpack works with xda2i
and i never heard about a SD card which had usb host
SD card
My own experience has been as follows.
I have a 1GB SD card and a small card reader with USB connection.
If I transfer JPEGs from PC or camera onto SD and then put SD into XDAII. I cannot view them on the XDA.
If I put SD card into XDAII and, it into cradle, I can drag and drop JPEGs via Active synch from PC to XDAII onto SD card and can view them on XDA and also when I remove SD card and place in reader connected to PC. So nearly universal create/view. After Activesynch coversion files appear to be same where JPEG used but something must be different.
Hope this helps.

evoluzzione wants to connect a usb flash drive on his BA.
is there something like sd to usb adapter? which connects usb devices to sd ports.
special SD cards has either wifi or usb plug.

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.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
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..

[Q] Connect to card reader and external hard drive?

I'm wondering if it's possible to connect a card reader device AND an external hard drive to my Nexus 7 for the sole purpose of transferring FROM card reader TO hard drive?
I'm thinking I would need:
- USB OTG cable
- Powered USB hub?
- USB card reader
- USB hard drive
would it work? How fast would it likely transfer, say 4gb?

I've never tried anything like that but what little I know I think you need to be rooted and use an app called StickMount which requires root to work. And I think you will need a custom kernel to have NTFS and exFAT support. I use the ElementalX kernel which has NTFS and exFAT support but most if not all custom kernels probably have that support also. Transfer speed probably wouldn't be that great because I think the bootleneck would be the speed class of the memory card. I would be surprised to see speeds higher than 20-30 MB/s. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable in doing what your trying to do will jump in here and enlighten both of us!

yes it can be done I use flash drives all the time. I also hook up my seagate 1tb backup to my nexus 5&7. you will only need an otg cable or adapter. a hub if you intend to use a keyboard and mouse. ive never done that but have heard of it being done. im runnig cyanogen on these devices however ive used usb card readers and a 64 gb 3.0 flash on my m8 full stock. 4.4 will accept external usb ive read. just try it you"ll like it
