Guys, is there a way to mount my NAS HDD either on NFS or SMB as a local disk in Android? Found several apps on pplaystore but are really old and do not work.

Hello
Sometimes i want to move file that's bigger then 4G to a sd-cart. Unfortunately FAT32 don't support this
So I asked google and google didn't know eather, but he gave me interesting project. Android-x86
Android-x86 supports NTFS as file system.
So i was wandering, if in kernel i turn module ntfs on, will i be possible to convert fat32 partition to ntfs?
will it work then?
[edit] I know I can change fat32 to ext3/4 but will it be mounted to /sd-cart/ so i'll be able to write/read it from the phone?[/edit]
really interesting any news about this???
anyway some notice about other platform??? how is it possible that still today don't exist an operative system for smartphone with filesystem support more than old fat32 4gb data??? this has no sense for me

I realise I'm replying to an old post but as there's been recent activity on this thread...
I'd just use an ext2 partition. If you're running A2SD you probably have one already. I run MCR 3.2 on my Hero & this partition is mounted (as a result of A2SD) on /system/sd & is obviously read/write. Max filesize under ext2/3 is 16GB for a 1KB blocksize.
anything happen with this? with the wealth of tablets coming out with the ability to mount host powered usb harddrives it would be great to be able to read/write (or even just read) ntfs natively within Android. formatting to Ext3 is the only option at the moment and is a bit of a ballache if i want to use the drive for anything else or take it to a friends etc.

Havent heard anything yet. But you can use the EXT2/3 FS driver for windows to make your life a little easier. I use it when I pull hdds out of my NAS.

When I plug my ereader (Sony PRS-350) into my USB port, and mount the external USB, it only mounts the first partition, which contains the Sony Reader software. Is there a way to make it mount the second partition instead, or as well, as the first. The second partition contains all your books, pictures, etc, so would be the only one you would care to see anyway, & would just blow off the first partition to recover wasted space if I knew how.
When I was on HC Thor rom 14.2 I was able to mount both parts of my Samsung 2.5" external HDD - first part was Fat32 and second NTFS. Now on Stock rooted ICS it can see only Fat32 part. So I think custom ICS rom will be solution
if you are rooted you can use drive mount from market
its free
Hi, I'm trying to mount a external hdd on my nexus 7 but in es file esplorer the folder is empty.
I'm stock 4.2.2 rooted, using stickmount (tried others app with no success)
Tried ntfs and fat32..
I can mount other drives but the verbatim is not accessible.
The drive has it's own power.
So i want to know if there is a workaround for this
Or not all the drives can work on the nexus 7 ?
Will a kernel or custom rom can make it work?
Tried apps especially for ntfs mounting , one see the drive but will not mount it.
Anyway I have ntsf file for stickmount, it should make it.
As I can see, it is just not mounting, stickmount say it is but not really.
Is there a way to force mount?
Or app that could bring more success?
Oh so now, with nexus media importer i can acess my disk read only mode.
Better than nothing
Still accepting ideas.
Hi!
I have managed to browse cifs and browse/read/write files.
but I really want to actually mount cifs to be part of the file system. Best would be to mount cifs as an SD card so I could install large apps onto network drive directly.
Is there an APP which can do this?
Tried Mount manager but it never going to work. It needs 'cifs.ko' and 'slow-work.ko' and there is no such things for S5. I tried many of those files but none of them gets actually loaded.
I'm using phone as stock, rooted.
Hi,
I'd like to mount some folders from my NAS on the internal storage of my rooted Shield TV 2017. I tried the integrated network mount feature and it works fine, but unfortunately I can not select where it gets mounted. So all my mounts are in mnt/remote/ and thats not where I want them to be. So is there a way how I can mount a network share in a internal folder of my choice? NFS mount would be great. Is that possible?
