Hi,
I want to know if this phone supports connection to USB flash drives like SD cards, pen drives or micro sd through USB. The model in question it is the E975.

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.
When I connect my GS3 to my Asus Transformer via USB I can not see the internal or external SD card. Eventually I get a message on the GS3 that I need to download Windows software for my PC. Is there a way to simply connect these two devices via USB?
I recently got around to unlocking and rooting my nexus v2 and every time I plug in the otg cable with SD card it will not pick it up but yet when I plug in my 2tb passport it picks it up but it will not let me play off it any suggestions

You're using an SD card reader, I gather? I've tried two (with multiple cables) but never had luck with SD cards, only flash drives.

Go figure all that work just to get a flash drive
A flash drive is less convenient than the SD card you already have, but it doesn't need an adapter for the USB OTG cable.
Maybe this will help--or not. I have been able to access an SD card via OTG connector and card reader. It's been a fickle set-up. This is what seems to work for me.
Rooted stock 4.4.4 + Stickmount Pro (haven't tried it without but will in a bit). ATM, I'm on 3.4.0 ElementalX but usually run Franco so I don't think kernel has any effect. Connect all hardware--card in reader, reader and OTG cable, OTG to N7. Reboot the N7. When it reboots, Stickmount shows that the sd card has been mounted. From ESFile Explorer, I can go to storage and see the card plus access it's content. I can unmount and remount the card, but if I unmount the device and remove the OTG and/or card, I have to reboot before it can be remounted. You can see in the pic which reader and which card I'm using. If it works without Stickmount, I'll report so. Otherwise, assume Stickmount is required.

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.
:good:
Hello guys, here is whats happening:
My Sandisk SD Card 16GB doesnt work on my LG G3 D855P anymore. My thl5000 and my pc recognized it normally. I've tried to format to fat32, ntfs (32 bytes, quick format disabled), I didnt have any success. Tested on the the other cellphone and pc and it worked as well, but not on LG. Its not even seen on storage, but whenever I put another card it is automatically recognized.
4 and 8gb and those are working normally on G3 but unfortunately I dont have another 16GB one to test to see if the problem is my cellphone stopped to recognize those ones.
Does someone have a clue about this?
