Hello,
I just bought an ohg cable and tried to connect some usb drives to it. FAT storages are working fine, but i cannot mount ntfs drives. I tried tools like "Paragon NTFS & HFS mount", but it seems that the system itself unmounts (USB Safely Remove) the storage automatically, before these tools can mount them. How can i stop the system to behave like that? Phone is a T-Mobile (DE) One M8 on KitKat 4.4.4 (root access).
Thank you in advance.

You could stop it by going FAT32.
Just sayin.....
Why is NTFS so important to you?
Is it just because it's new?
Use what works. Problem solved.
FAT32 doesn't support files larger then 4 GB.

Has anyone got NTFS mounting to work, specifically from an OTG adapter and external hard drive? I see an old thread about NTFS mount, but the search function is broken on XDA (when clicking on a search result, it just takes you to the front forums page, not the actual thread you clicked on), so I can't read it.
I tried Paragon NTFS+, which works with my hard drive drive & OTG adapter when using my LG G2, but on my Note it fails to mount. Paragon doesn't give an error message, it just tries to mount for a few seconds then does nothing. I also tried NTFS Mounter, which crashes when trying to mount.
I ended up using Wireless File Transfer Pro to transfer a large file because MTP is broken on my laptop with all devices. I've tried everything under the sun to fix MTP, but it's just broken until I reimage this machine.
FWIW, I'm using CleanROM 1.5.

There are a couple NTFS Mount apps on the Play Store, none of them are working as of yet though.
When trying to mount using ntfs-3g and fuse.ko by hand, ntfs-3g stops with some sort of permission error.
My guess is it doesn't work with SELinux on Enforcing yet.

USB Plugin for total commander works.. It's a paid app but it works... Only thing though, you need to Total Commander as the File manager. It will also copy a file, temporarily, to the tablet. But it does read the NTFS 1.5Tb drive I plug in....

If you want your SM-P600 to mount and read NTFS formatted Hard drives you will nee to install the kernel shown here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2615959
After you do that you can install Paragon or USB OTG helper,the hard drive should be mounted and your tablet should be able to show the files on it if you use ES file explorer

You need usb stick plugin for commander. You will need to pay for it and it only works with total commander file manager but it does allow NTFS access....

I researched for ways to make 10.1 14 read any external HD with NTFS format thru OTG.
Found a couple of ways, tried and it still show me empty folder.
Tried both Stickmount and [root]Ntfs Mounter and both doesn't work. It tried both of them with my 3 HDD (256 GB SSD, 1TB and 2TB WD Passport).
I was hoping to connect it without having to reformat any of the disk to ExFAT or FAT32.
Is there any method that's working yet
Really appreciate the help. TIA.

Hi,
There is only one working solution as I know.
You have to install TotalCommander and then also the relate USB plug-in.
The only limit is that for NTFS is read-only.
For all the other programs you find on the store for OTG management, are not working because of the restrictions made by SELinux in enforcing mode.
To solve this, you have to find a working custom kernel that sets SELinux in Permissive mode. But as far as I know there is nothing for sm-p605.

Thanks for the response. So that's why everything that I'm trying just tells me its mounted but doesnt show me anything.
I was hoping to use it as OTG storage so read-only seems pointless at this moment.
I guess we wait right Thanks again sir!

AFAIK, bindroid kernel is coming with NTFS support, limited to SM-P600 and SM-P601.
Since about two days there's a new version of Stickmount, which will during the first run download additional stuff to enhance compatibility. I would suspect an Ntfs driver.
without ntfs drivers in kernel, you cannot read ntfs format...
Hi, if any of you tried to connect a flash drive with ntfs file system? Unfortunately my 32gb sandisk extreme is unrecognizable. I have tried programs like StickMount, Paragon NTFS Mounter and exFAT, NTFS & HFS +, and only the last one detects the flash drive but can not read the files on it.
Did you download the helper functions for StickMount and put them in the correct place? I've successfully reading a NTFS external hard drive on my S5 with that combo but haven't tried it on my tablet.

Unfortunetly no. Can U help me?
EDIT: I put ntfs-3g on internal storage ( /sdcard ) but it still does not work. StickMount shows that mass storage is mounted in sdcard/usbstorage/sda1 but I dont have folder sda1 :/
EDIT2: I found where StickMount is mounted usb (data/media/0/usbStorage/sda1). I see all files but when I try to open (pdf or mkv movie) shows error (Adobe or VLC found usb error try to refresh media library).
EDIT3: When I copy file from usb to my sdcard everything is working. Any ideas how to read files from mounted USB or what is wrong?

I too have have tried all the different apps to read any OTG flashdrive. NTFS, 32bit and so on, none would work. Advised by one of kernel developers that rom/kernel must support OTG mounting and stock kernel does not. So it's not what you are doing but the stock device doesn't support. Only available by installing a custom rom/kernel that does. So far I think there is only one I know of for the 10.5 wifi. Not what sure what you are running but check the two threads for a kernel that will for you device. Good luck and if you find one, please come back and post what u found.
Title says it all. Is there any way to disable this? I'm using StickMount on a rooted FTV and every time it restarts for any reason the USB detection dialog pops up asking if you want to format the USB storage (my drive is NTFS so the native USB storage support can't read it, hence it wants to reformat it).
Obviously this makes me rather nervous... I just want to disable the dialog (or whatever it would take to stop it from popping up - I don't want or need the horribly limited built in support).
I use a hub to get around this issue, but it works to my advantage: I can relocate FTV apps to the FAT32 USB. Or you can make a small FAT32 partition in your USB and the rest is NTFS to make FTV happy.

Really strange things happen here.
When I put my 64gb sandisk stick into fireTV and let him format it, there will be right problems with FolderMount. For example FolderMount can not create a folder on the exStorage. So I decide to format it with hp storage format tool to a FAT32 64gb stick.
No the pop-up comes again but stickmount and FolderMount work fine again.
Is there no way to disable this stupid dialog?
Greetings by I_did_it_just_tmrrow
EDIT: MySolution
I format my stick into 2 partitions.
First you need to create one (small or big partition, like you need it) in fat32.
The rest into none or raw, but just not fat32.
Then put into you AFTV and let him create his ****.
Then back into a linux based lapto/pc and start gparted or your fav partition tool.
Make the rest to an secend fat32 partition.
Put into it again and mount stickmount the hole stick.
You should get sda1 & sda2.
One is controlled by your aftv, the secend is yours.
Now you can use apps like FolderMount and make mounts like puttin data/media/obb -> to your own (mostly it is sda2) stick partition. Works nice in my case.
