Barely a week in the new tegra note 7 and already facing some pretty buggy bugs.
I have a Sony GB dual USB (micro/standard) otg drive & it works on all my other devices but upon connecting on this note 7 the light blinks for a second and stops. In storage under settings upon connecting the 'USB drive' is highlighted but if I click on mount USB it activates for a micro second then again back to same & shows sd removed.
Please guide out. Thanks!

Hi Folks
I've been playing around with a 101 Gen9 and in particular the Full Size USB Slot on the back.
On the Archos WebSite in the FAQ they state:
What can I plug in the USB port on the back of the tablet?
The USB host port on the back of your G9 tablet is reserved for only the ARCHOS G9 3G Stick. You will not be able to plug any other USB devices in this port.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I have been doing some of my own testing on this port and found that not to be the case
Every device I plugged into it has worked in one way or another (very much another in some cases)
1. The tablet has been rooted using letma's method.
2. You need to turn on the "3G Stick" in the Wireless Settings
3. The tablet Was Plugged In
On point 3. I have no idea how the battery was doing. especially with some of the more power hungry usb devices.
Here's a list of what I've tested
Not Working:
Keyboard (USB 1.1)
Working:
Kingston Data Traveller II+ (USB 2.0) - Picked up as external storage
HTC Hero Mass Storage
HTC Debug Bridge (Required Root for adb)
HTC Sensation Mass Storage
HTC Sensation Debug Bridge (Required Root for adb)
4 Port HUB (USB 2.0)
A Couple of observations.
After turning the 3G Stick on I restarted the device
I had to plug the USB devices while the tablet was starting for it to be picked up.
The Keyboard worked when plugged into the 4 Port USB Hub. I think the keyboard will function on its own with the right kernel modules
No Device showed up as The "External Storage" in the "Files" program when plugged into the Hub, even though I mounted the device (/dev/block/sd*) from terminal emulator to the /mnt/ext_storage folder.I suspect it is looking for a specific USB device number as the external storage device.
I suppose it would be good if some other people to test what USB devices they have to hand to see what works, maybe we could build a list of functioning devices. I'm going to investigate getting the Keyboard going on it's own, which is what sparked this off and also test some external hard drives with various file systems.
I hope someone finds this helpful

For me the usb stick and hard drive is working on the stock archos firmware without reboot!
Hello everyone. I bought a nexus 10 a few days ago from a friend,he barely used it. However i cant seem to be able to connect the device with a usb flash disk. I bought the otg cable from ebay,and it works with a mouse like a charm. I tried connecting 2 flash usb and external hdd that get power externally..They all give me the same result at nexus media importer: after waiting like 5-10 secs "connecting..." then "waiting for media...",i get
"timed out in waitDeviceReady()". I can't seem to find anything about it on google. Any help/advice please?
Also,the usb/hdd have a small led light on them which is supposed to "blink" when they are connected and the connection is ok. When i connect them to n10, they "blink" at first for 2-3 secs, then they stay on/off.
I had better luck with non-Fat16/32 formatted OTG storage devices when I installed "USB OTG Helper [root]" although you require root. Just a suggestions.
With USB powered harddrives (not self powered), I read a number of posts indicating people had issues due the N10 not being able to supply the power requirements. Some even mentioned that their HDD worked but only when the N10 had 75% or higher charge.
I am wondering whether anyone has connected a USB 3.0 hub to the Axon 7.
The reason I ask is that I am going on a trip soon and want to back up my camera SD card each day to a USB stick. I don't want to take a laptop. What I'd like to do is connect a USB card reader / hub to the phone to copy files from the SD card to the USB stick at USB 3 speeds. Devices like the Ravpower wd03 only do usb 2, which will take ages per file.
Will this work? Will I need a USB 3 otg?

Update - USB Hub Works - but.....
OK, so I took the plunge and bought an Aukey USB C to USB 3 adaptor and a USB hub - one of these. I did it that was as I don't have other USB C devices.
The USB hub works fine with USB memory sticks. Each time i insert it registers a new USB OTG drive and I can happily copy to and from it (and more than one
But every time I insert an SD card into the SD reader, the Axon 7 gives me an error "Unsupported USB Drive: This device doesn't support thus USB drive. Touch to set up in a supported format". When I try to format the card, it fails.
Any ideas?
Update 2
I should add that:
1. The same problem occurs even if I use the MicroSD card I use in the phone - so it is not a formatting issue.
2. I also have a Note 5. If I connect the USB hub to that via a USB OTG, the Note 5 can happily read the SD Card.
3. The SD slot USB Hub works fine when when plugged into a PC.
Do I need an additional USB OTG? Will that conflict with the phone?
Update 3!!!
This is getting ridiculous but I want it to work.
So I tried plugging a SD Card reader into the USB hub. Lo and behold it works!!!! I wonder whether the issue is just that the SD card reader in the hub is missing something which allows the Axon to read the SD card.
That was only USB 2 - I am going to invest in a USB 3 SD card reader (my camera produces large files!) So I am going to invest in a small USB card reader and will report back.
Update 4
So the card reader has arrived as has my USB 3 stick. Now I can copy all the files from the SD Card to the USB Stick.
The only issue is that Dropbox scans the cards and starts trying to upload them as Camera uploads so I've had to kill the process.
The other issue is that my file manager (File Manager HD) doesn;t allow copying and I have to use the System file Manager, which is awful. Am going to work on that process over the weekend. Any suggestions gratefully received on that front!!!
Rubbish. Rubbish. Rubbish
The connection just isn't stable enough. The phone keeps saying that the card(s) keeping g being disconnected / removed. There is nothing wrong with the hub or either the USB stick or the sync card / card reader.
Last chance - I will add a power supply to the USB hub. If that doesn't work I'm afraid my views will be confirmed - this is a great phone with a great DAC but other than that it is just a bit rubbish and cheap for a reason, with a manufacturer which doesn't want to develop for it. I'm the EU least.

I have a LG G6 H873 and I'm trying to use an OTG adapter to read an SD card (Kodlix Type-C Reader) and I'm not getting any prompts for a USB device being detected (and the LED doesn't light up on the adapter).
I've tried the same adapter on my wife's LG G5 and it works fine (both os are at the same revision). I've also tried the "OTG Troubleshooter" app which seems to detect that a OTG device is plugged in. Plugging a USB cable from my PC to this device works fine and I can browse the files on my phone from the PC.
Any ideas?
Same here. OTG worked fine. Then one day stopped working.
My phone recognizes all my files in file folder but stock gallery and music app showes no pics or songs.When i flashed oreo update my sd card worked fine.on boot up it would show media scanning and then show a little sd card icon in the notifications but after 2 days my phone does not scan anymore.Is this related to your problem?
I have a G6 h870ds. After loads of mucking about I have discovered that my OTG only works with full USB3 OTG adapters and USB3 memory sticks.
I cant use USB2 wired OTG adapters or USB2 memory sticks. Initial connection of the USB2 OTG adapter is recognized but no connected devices are detected. I have a USB2 memory stick with an LED on it. When it is first connected to the OTG cable it flashes in a way that leads me to think it is trying to reply to the USB bus interrogation but something (probably software) fails. The phone connects to my usb2 PC port just fine so I don't think the hardware is at fault. I've reset the phone but alas that didn't help!
No issues whatsoever if I plug in the OTG adapter first, then the drive. No matter if USB 1, 2 or 3 memory stick.
So this wasn't always a problem, and I can't say when it happened, but it has begun to annoy me more recently.
OTG storage used to work. Something like six months ago my Galaxy S7 Edge (Android 8.0.0, Verizon, Developer Options Enabled) stopped recognizing when I plugged OTG storage devices into the phone.
The two USB thumb drives I primarily use are:
SanDisk, 128 GB Ultra Dual USB Drive (USB 3.0 / Micro USB), formatted ExFat32
--> This is not detected when directly plugged into the micro USB on the phone, nor when connected by USB OTG cable
SanDisk, 32GB Ultra Dual USB-C Drive (USB 3.1 / USB-C), formatted Fat32
--> This I can only connect with an OTG cable, not detected
Both of the drives work on Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 and Tab S4 (I got the Tab S4 for Christmas).
The only way I can easily get files onto the S7 Edge is by connecting it by USB to a laptop.
I don't see any settings that would turn on or off OTG Storage in the settings. I don't want to reformat the drives, I've tried that many times.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what might be keeping them from being detected? I have the pro versions of ES File Explorer and Solid Explorer both on the phone.
Thanks,
Joe
Hey Joe, I realize this is almost a year old but did you ever find a solution? I've just formatted my DUAL USB (128GB) to exFAT and it is no longer recognized by my Galaxy S7 Edge. Any hints greatly appreciated. Cheers, Scott
I have not been able to get the S7 Edge to recognize external storage / USB togo memory. I gave up trying; transfer files directly from pc to the phone now. I assumed it was a software update that killed usb memory access, but never was able to confirm.
Sorry,
Joe
