Just got my New op5.
As soon as I inserted the usb pen containing my backup apps and data, nothing happened. File explorers don't show any usb storage...
It worked fine (and still works) in my OP3. Why doesnt op5 recognize or detect the attached usb pen?

You'll have to enable an otg setting in advanced options.
Can't upload a screenshot during to network error now
There's also a quick setting tile that you can use to enable OTG for accessing USB storage.

Hello,
I cannot get my USB Host Mode to work on my Note II... I have tried various ROM's/Kernel combo's, and the apps you can get in the play store. (USB Host Controller). I've also tried lots of devices, and provided the external power when it was needed. When I got this phone I wanted the stock ROM of it, and didn't even try the USB Host mode. All the ROM I've tested have been stock based, that shouldn't be the issue.
I know the USB-OTG adapter works because I've tried it on other phones, with the same devices I can't get to work on my own phone.
My Rom is CleanROM Ace 4.9, which is latest. Kernel is SaberKernel_23, also latest.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Maniac
Not much experience with it but I use 'stickmount' and can see USB storage with my dongle.
I'm with Telus and also using cleanrom 4.9 the below app worked for me

I just found this app yesterday, but, this is not the usb I'm looking for. This app allows you to mount the extsd as a USB device on pc. I want to use USB devices with my phone. Mount flash drives, mouse, xbox 360 controller, etc..

What kernel are you running? USB-OTG functionality must be enabled in the kernel. I'm running Adam.Kernel v2.5 (for N7105/I317) and when I connect my flash drive to phone (via USB-OTG cable) you should see two messages in the top notification area: "USB connector connected" then "USB mass storage connected". Then open your favorite file manager and you should see another storage device "UsbDriveA" (the other two of course are "sdcard0" (internal) and "extSdCard" (external). When you click on "UsbDriveA" you should see the files on your flash drive. Two things to check: does your kernel support USB-OTG? (I'm pretty sure when I was on the CleanROM v4.9 (N7105XXDMC3) kernel, it also worked. Second thing to check is the cable... I see you mentioned it works on other devices, but I had same problem. Bought another USB-OTG approved cable (less than 6 bucks) and it worked flawlessly on the Note2.
By the way, there is a bug in the 4.1.2 firmware when you disconnect the cable from phone (even using the drop down notification and selecting "USB mass storage.. Select to remove...." your phone won't deep-sleep again unless you reboot (leaves a partial wakelock called "USB Unmounter" (something like that). However, when ready to disconnect cable, do it this way "Menu--> System Settings --> Storage --> and scroll down to "USB OTG storage"... then select "Unmount USB OTG storage". This will safely unmount usb cable storage and allow phone to deep-sleep again without rebooting. Hope this helps.

Hi guys,
Probably an unusual question for you. Is there a way to extract my samsung calendar from my pc by hooking it up via USB?
My problem: dropped my phone.
Pro: Phone still works, connects via USB and shows my internal AND external SD card.
Con: I need my calendar, contacts etc etc.
Running alliance rom, TWRP recovery.
I still have my Evo 3D, and it would be awesome if I could somehow use my data (calendar and such) on my Evo whilst I wait for my sgn2 to be repaired.
Thanks in advane!! :good:

Alright, so I tried a few things and found a solution.
I noticed my phone was still working, my USB debugging is turned on, so I searched on how to copy my screen to my pc and found a program called DroidAtScreen.
After you install Android SDK platform tools (adb.exe is the one you need), which I already had installed due too earlier projects. You simply install DroidAtScreen, run adb.exe and connect your device via USB. Afterwards my screen was visible, but I couldn't do anything. But when I tried with my s-pen I saw it responded. So by hovering I could see where I was.
Using the hover method and clicking with the s-pen I managed to create a titaniumbackup to my Internal SD card (External can't be used via titanium since it's hooked up via USB). And by copying the backup to my pc and restoring it on my other phone I got all my stuff back..
Only works when your screen is the ONLY broken part. As long as the s-pen functions (digitalizer) you can manage to do everything you used to do. Takes a bit of time though...
Hope this helps others in the future
No solutions? no way to extract contacts etc. from the internal or external sd card?
Hi
I also would like to know how to do this.
Thx

Your usb stick is not a computer, it does not need to read your phone with MTP protocol.
The phone should provide power to the USB stick, exactly as it is saying, so that your phone can read the contents of the USB stick.
Get a File Manager like FX to transfer items to and from your USB stick.
I have the same problem. It always says usb charging and I could not transfer pictures to my usb using the usb-c/usb adaptor. I tried using file manager app but I get confused with all these asking permissions and I end up unable to transfer anything. I never had this problem with my S7 edge before. I tried connecting the phone directly to the mac using android file transfer but could not connect. I would really appreciate if someone can give us a more detailed steps on how.

I tried that I have ES file explorer like "edsol" said it won't mount the stick because it's in charging mode
I tried several time to switch it off of charging mode but always flips back after a few seconds.
if "edsol" has the same problem then I guess it's not just my phone........there must be a fix for this??
I had the same situation, and I had to format the USB stick in "exFAT" to be able to copy files to it. NTFS is supported only for reading, but not for writing.
So check that your USB stick is not NTFS.
FAT32 and exFAT are the same, the difference is that exFAT doesn't have the FAT32 limitations (maximum file size of 4 GB)

Thanks...but it is exFat......I did a reformat just incase.......still a no go ??
you probably need some file manager to do what you want, Android sucks when it comes to manual file management.
Anyway I have ES file explorer loaded on my phone, so plugged in USB c to USB2 adapter, put in 32 GB FAT32 memory stick, ES file exp. open up and I transferred couple files from stick to SD, just to test it if it works. It did, but you would have to pay me a lot of money to do it on regular basis, so awkward. I just plug my phone to PC and use windows click and drag to move files around. Now I run into problem, when I was transferring my pictures, couple days ago, F???? Android lock my sd card for no reason (F????? Google is messing SD cards on phones since at least kitkat). I had to fix sd and take write protect off, but I'm sure it's Google not Samsung. Anyway, it works like a charm, just watch out for Google's broken permissions showing it's ugly head.
What File Explorer are you using? Some of them can't write to external storage because of Marshmallow permissions.
"My Files" of Samsung worked for me while "ES File Explorer" didn't work (before root)
I used ES File Explorer, I'm sorry I said wrong in my previous post, I moved couple files to phones DCIM folder, not SD, it's so awkward and I just wanted to see if it works at all, it did, I confirmed the files were moved, before deleting them. So actually I don't know if it would work on SD card, but I would never ever transfer files like that: I would use my pc laptop for direct transfer between SD and stick. So the concept I described works, but as far as permissions to particular folders go, they're so messed up and don't even want to test it again against SD. In theory it should work at least for transfer to root directory, since card is not protected, may not work for transfer to folders created by other programs due to permissions. At some point I may have to root this phone just to fix those stupid permissions, but I haven't used Marshmallow until now, so not sure how broken those permissions are here.

I've tried a few file programs including My Files..........but the usb stick isn't recognized because it stays in charging mode
so can't even attempt to transfer anything....this is frustrating !!
Hello!
This is more a general question than a specific device question
Lately I've been transferring lots of files and I'm using USB to transfer my files and I found out that the USB port of Xiaomi Mi 6 is a USB 2.0 version even if it is Type-C port.
and I'm looking for a better, faster way of transferring files, I don't care if I have to use USB or WiFi, all that matters is speed
Any suggestions?
Is Wi-Fi better?
Has nothing to do with USB 2.0/3.0, MTP is just ****. A suggestions would be to put all the files in a .zip archive on the PC and transfer that instead. When on the phone use an app which can decompress the zip file and voila
