Hi guys, i know that you problably answered these questions several times already, but i couldn´t find a exact match for what i want to do.
I have an OTG cable and a 4 port USB hub that i´m using for tests. I´m using stock 4.2 and stock kernel.
1- I´d like to add a flash drive or a external usb hard disk as a default storage device, is there any way to do this without external apps? like the N7 had microSD support? I saw a topic where some user was able to do this, but i can´t find it. Can i install games and everything if i do this? None of my FAT32 cflash drives were recognized. NTFS drives paragon NTFS mounted but it was not recognized by system in storage options.
2- Overclock using SET CPU will work as usual even using stock kernel? Which settings do you recommend me to use?
3- As you can see, i´m a noob considering the rooting possibilities, which more do you recommend me to do to fully use the potential of my Nexus 7, i use it mainly for playing games and emulators, surfing internet and watching movies. The only thing i did was modifying the script to run XBOX360 wireless controller perfectly. Any recommendations to rooting i will be very grateful, thanks!
Downloaded stickmount app, Attached memory stick message popped up wanted to use as default clickd yes. Went to mount option and get a message saying mount service busy try again, keep trying and get same message, the memory stick is lite up . how can I access info on memory stick if app does not Work?
Stickmount wont show you your files on the memory stick.
The mount service is busy because Stickmount has already mounted your memory stick !!
Download:
FX Explorer
or
ES Explorer
You should see your USB stick and be able to browse them.
I'll say again STICKMOUNT WILL NOT SHOW YOUR FILES.
It simply allows the stick to be mounted to your Nexus.
Also which rom are you using, a fair few of them have native mounting (smoothrom and paranoid android both do, probably others as well) I found stick mount seems to confuse matters if Android is also trying to mount the stick. Removing stick mount and using the native solved the issues for me.
The native mounting will show in the storage section of settings.

Hello all,
I just rooted and patched to 4.4 on my nexus 10. I have been trying for 3 days to get it to let me use usb external storage and to no avail. I have tried stickmount and i can get it to mount the usb but when I use file manager it shows up but the folder is empty, and wont let me copy anything to it either. So then I tried nexus media importer it looks for the device then fails. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong I can get stickmount to work with 128mg stick, 4g stick, and 1g stick but when i try a larger one it loads it but the folder is empty, any help would be appreciated, thank you.
Have you tried attempting to activate the new file picker implemented in KitKat? I was wondering if this would support OTG functionality.

Yeah I tried the new file picker but didn't do much for me.
I have a Nexus 7 2012 and am running stickmount pro under 4.4 presently though the problem showed up in 4.2.2
The issue is that stickmount will mount a USB drive when none is actually connected to the device. I can go into usbStorage/sda1 and see an old file listed that at one time was on a stick connect to the tablet. This always happens at boot up and then randomly during use. I can still, usually, mount an actual USB stick but at times it will fail. Is there a way to "reset" stickmount so it will forget about this "old usb and file"?
When mounting a real stick it usually mounts it as sda1 but on occasion I have seen it mounted as another mount point.
When dismounting an actual stick it can take a number of unmount commands before it actually happens as it is "busy". Further, when it does do the unmount it will show the window but it will show that sda1 is still connected though I've learned over time that it seems to be fine to pull the stick as on looking into usbStorage it shows the phantom mount and not the one physically connected.
Any suggestion as to how to fix this. Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't do anything. Nor does a cache/data reset.
Hello I am somewhat new to the really working with Android. I purchased a Nexus Player knowing that the storage was small only 8gig of storage but I figured with the micro usb port on the back there would be a way to add external storage. I had no idea it was going to be such a chore, but I am learning alot along the way.
Ok for starters the player is running Android 5.1. I
I found out to do this I needed to Root the device and get stickmount and foldermount
I successfully rooted the device using chain fire and then I loaded their side loader.
From there I was able to load the both Stickmount and Foldermount. I even bought the pro addon for Stickmount and have it loaded as well.
ok so now I attach my USB stick through the OTG cable I purchased and see that STICKMOUNT mounts the device to sdcard/usbstorage/USBSTORAGE
THen I open foldermount and if I look at partitions I notice there is no Partition that is showing my 16gig usb stick...
I then contacted the developer and they said just browse to the proper folder where stickmount mounted my usbstick and use it for the destination.. Ok well I then went to app analyzer selected a game, picked the OBB file, and browsed my way to the where my usb card was mounted but then I have no options...... I can't go any farther... I saw online it says to click the checkmark at the top of screen but there is no checkmark.. I have never saw a checkmark anywhere in this program.. I see in screenshots online there is a 3 dot menu at the upper right hand corner of the screen on FOLDERMOUNT but that is nowhere to be found when I run mine.. I just sit at the final destination folder and can do nothing with it...
IF someone can help me I would really appreciate it.. I'm pretty new at all this but am working my way through it.. There has to be a way to get apps to my USB stick I just know there is..
If someone knows of anything I'm doing wrong either why there is no partition showing my 16gig usb stick or how to get the menu on foldermount that would help.. If there are some settings on the nexus player that I need to change please let me know. I've been looking everywhere for answers and I have found no clear answers. Basically if someone running android 5.1 has gotten apps to a USB stick or any external storage please post the procedures for getting this to happen.. Thank you everyone for any help you can give.
