USB OTG Works! My sloppy Meenova SD reader review

[zrxoa1]

Thank you for the heads up for this product! Just ordered two of them! One for my wife's Note 2 and one for me to use on either my Nexus 7 or HTC One. This is a great find!

Yes indeed it is.

Just on the miniscule hope of a chance, if I get a pop up directive saying the card has to be formatted as FAT32, is there any way to get it to work which doesn't involve using a computer? (Haven't got a working one at the moment.)

I don't know of an app that can format uSD cards in FAT32. I'll have to poke around.

Thank you. I know it's probably a lost cause. The Nexus Media Importer app is missing from the play store now, also. I think they had a billing problem the other week.

Nice review. Thinking about getting one of these but would like to know if any of you guys tried this device yet:
Amazon.com: 3in1 USB Connection Kit HUB SD MMC TF Card Reader Adapter For OTG Mobile Phone: Cell Phones & Accessories

I don't have any mSD cards laying around, but happen to have a couple of usb drives and SD and rather use them instead of purchasing another storage device if possible

Just got the Meenova. Downloaded Nexus Media Importer. Every time I try to play a movie off of the reader it crashes. Using 2012 Nexus 7 on 4.4.2

The Meenova works fine in my HTC One and in my Samsung smart TV.

Update...

Uninstalled and re installed NMI, all works well now.

The "USB-Stick Plugin" for the "Total Commander" now supports reading and writing the exFAT format without rooting. The free version is fully functional.

I would like to mention my newest experiment:
The App "StickyCloud" available in the Google Play Store:
https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...ails?id=de.hechler.stickycloud&token=RhUxcRiR

Android 4.4 (KitKat) introduced the new Storage Access Framework.
With this Framework the user can seamlessly access (read, stream and write) his documents independent of the storage where it is located.
The App "StickyCloud" now implements a Document Provider which allows to access the locally attached USB Device as if it was a Remote Cloud like Google-Drive or Dropbox.

The advantage is, that you do not need to root your device to get access to the memory stick.
The disadvantage is, that currently there are not very much apps which support the new framework, but I think this will change in the near future.

The app currently is in Beta Test, but the basic functionality is available.
