Otg Usb Flash Recovery - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a recovery that can mount otg usb? I want to put all the roms in my 32g flash.

That'd be handy. Hope to see this in future recoveries

USB Mass Storage in CWM not working?

Hi everyone, I was just about to install the latest CM9 kang on my new Galaxy Nexus, and I can't seem to activate USB storage in ClockWorkMod recovery. It's the standard non-touch version, if that matters... the one that installed automatically with the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit v5.3.
When I try to activate USB storage, I get "E: Unable to open UMS lunfile".
Now I'm pushing the files via ADB instead, which is a bit of a hassle.
Is this normal? Or do I need to do something special to enable USB storage in CWM? Do I need a different version?
I don't think you can enable storage in clockwork mod.. Boot your phone up, and then connect it to your computer to push the files.
OK, thanks. Any idea why UMS (or MTP, don't really care what protocol is used ) is unsupported in CWM? No time to implement it yet? Or is there a technical reason that it won't work?
I'm also having this issue with my GT-I9100. I select the USB storage option, plug the cable into my PC and nothing happens apart from Windows recognising a device has been connected. But no storage device appears in My Computer.
Was using CWM v5.x (can't remember which version anymore).
Still haven't found a solution, so I restored to another image I had backed up thankfully.
It just simply not implemented in CWM at the moment ... would love to see Koush add it in the future it'd be very useful
The GNex does not support USB Mass Storage mode at all.

Maybe you have installed a clockworkmod recovery touch not compatible with your phone. Maybe it is optimus_prime-touch-v5.5.0.4-6-GSM.img ?
Because it is for the Asus transformer prime. I didn't see any official cwm recovery for the Galaxy Nexus with USB Storage capabilities (I mean OTG, not UMC, that are commonly mistaken)

I can confirm this one.
I flashed everything, with a full wipe, and then tried to move the JB zip image from computer to phone (in cwm recovery boot, with mass storage) and I couldn't manage to acomplish that.
I googled, and it seems that mass storage in cwm doesn't work with GNexus..Anyway, I got an error in console when I tried to activate mass storage.

It's true that Galaxy Nexus doesn't support UMC because the sdcard is a subfolder of the data partition instead of independent, like in the Galaxy S2. But I was talking about OTG, it is mounting an usb pendrive to save cwm backups there.

inside recovery just see if you find the option to install zip from ext and your usb gets detected there or not while attached

Format your USB flash drive as fat32 transfer your rom boot to recovery and connect your USB drive, Philz recovery will mount it automatically, some times Philz recovery can't see it, to fix this reinstall from recovery the same recovery and when you boot back to fresh installed recovery connect your flash drive and recovery will see it. Philz recovery also can see ntfs etc but prefer to format your flash drive as fat32.

TWRP

After flashing TWRP when i reboot into recovery the twrp doesn't see my internal storage content. how to solve it?
You don't, you can't access your internal storage from TWRP.
If remember correctly OnePlus implemented the encryption incorrectly or something along these lines.
Needs otg USBC flash drive if you don't want to sideload via pc

OTG mounting Nexus 7 2013

Hey all, long timer here, just been awhile. I happened across my old Nexus 7 in my closet the other day and decided to update the ROM. Unfortunately I wiped it before I realized my OTG won't mount. I've tried 3 different dongles I have and 2 different USB sticks I have, one 2.0 and one 3.0. I'm running TWRP 2.8.7.0 which may not help my cause, but if I can't mount OTG, it doesn't matter anyway. Is there a certain size or style OTG this version of TWRP is able to see? Any help is appreciated. I can use ADB but it's been awhile. Thanks in advance.

Hi, ensure FAT format for OTG. But you can easily install either stock or custom ROM with scripted solutions, and no need for OTG nor direct ADB commands.

It's definitely going to be the FAT32 formatting. I appreciate it. Thank you!
