Why cant I transfer RAW files via USB to my LG G4?

[Hamoosh]

I have been trying to move some RAW files from my dslr to my lg g4, but when I go into the folder, I can only see the jpeg fules but not the RAW ones.

I am using an otg dongle and a sd card reader to transfer the images.

What app are you using to do the transfer?
Any file browser app should see and copy all the files. (You want to do a copy, not a move.)

After you get the raw files on the G4, finding an app that knows how to open them will be a separate problem.

I have tried various apps that either do nothing or can see the photos but cant transfer them.
My system file manager can see that there are .nef files on the drive, but cant view or interact with them.
Any suggestions for apps to try?

I can see where almost all apps would have problems interpreting and displaying the Nikon NEF files. However, all file browsers should blindly copy the files.

Unfortunately my default file browser doesn't like .nef files so I will try more different 3rd party applications. In the mean time if you know of any apps that work or have worked for you please let me know.
