    Default How do I use OTG cable to access SD Card?

    I picked up a new 32gb N7 today that will be my daily driver soon... I rooted it and installed Stickmount.

    When I attach my SD Card reader via OTG, it seems to mount but I cannot see any of the files on the SD card.

    I believe that the SD card is formatted via FAT as it is from my digicam.

    It created a subdirectory called /usbStorage and that has a subdir called "sdb" and "sdc" ... earlier it had four subdirs "sda" to "sdd"

    All of those subdirs show as being empty in Astro...

    What am I doing wrong?

    UPDATE: Stickmount keeps popping up and now I have a mount called "sda1" that has my files and three empty ones "sdb" to "sex's

    Maybe I have StickMount setup wrong that it keeps giving me all these empty mounts?

    Thanks

    Did you update to 4.2 yet? Looks like there is a compatibility problem with stickmount.

    Yes I am at 4.2 now but wasn't when I made the original post...

    There is an update for StickMount in the Play store... check it out, it should resolve your issues.

    Excellent, that was the last app I knew was broken on 4.2 so ostensibly delaying my upgrade. That being said, I may just sit tight until 4.2.1.
