I'm having issues with stickmount. I'm on cm11 20131218 nightly for, my nexus 7 2013. I was on stock before I and I was able to use stickmount just fine. I flashed cm 11 and now I can mount the usb stick. I wiped and flash back to stock and I still can't mount the usb stick using stickmount .

Oddly enough I can mount the usb stick and see the folders and files if I use nexus photo viewer on cm11.

I know, you otg cable and usb stick are working properly because I have a note 2 running cm11 and I can mount and access the files.

I was wondering if anyone knew of anything I could do to try to get otg working for my Nexus 7.

Can you add ability to mount exFAT sdcard please?

eg. mount external sdcard on Samsung Note 2.

I'm currently using an aosp 4.4.2 rom for Samsung Note 2, but kernel do not support exFAT, so I cannot use my external sdcard.

Thank you very much!

Nexus 5 mount service is busy

I have a stock rooted(CF auto root) Nexus 5 with 4.4.2 with the Meenova microSD card adapter and a sandisk class 10 64gb card. Every time I try to mount the card it says "mount service is busy". I was hoping to use this card for listening to music but it's not working. Help?

[Android Apps and Games] CptGia:
On android 4.4 Kirk at you also need to put SELinux in permissing mode in order to have proper write support with NTFS.

Open terminal and write "su <enter> setenforce 0 <enter>". Or you can even use the app "SetEnforce Toggle", get it on play store.

It works, just like magic.
[Android Apps and Games] dobodu:
Very strange, i had just the same issue after lashing 4.4 rom o my xoom but i completely forgive to apply a root patch (supersu). Since that absolutely NO PROBLEM.

I think you'd better check your rooting rights... Maybe that's the solution.

hello, i am facing a problem.. i have two 32gb usb flash drives both are ntfs one is a usb 2.0 sandisk and the other is a usb 3.0 adata(the description says it is usb 2.0 compatible). When i am connecting the sandisk everything works fine but when i connect the adata although the stickmount finds it when i am going to the path that it says all i find is an empty folder and i cant see my files.. i have tried to format the usb to fat32,exfat with no luck.. the nexus photo viewer shows my file just fine but i want stickmount to work because it is better.. any solutions?

Thank you for your comment! :) I would like to add that people also have to do this with exfat formatted media. The "SetEnforce Toggle" app takes some time to invoke the SuperSU dialogue after running it, but everything worked out fine.

I just got a OTG cable for my Galaxy Nexus (4.3 stock JWR66Y, root SuperSU) and try to get Stickmount to work.

Nexus Photo Viewer can mount my two NTFS sticks just fine and show their content.

StickMount recognizes my sticks and creates the folders for them in the usbStorage folder but they're empty.

I also tried copying the ntfs support zip file from the first post in the storage root folder to no avail.

Anything else I can try or to get enhance debug info what goes wrong?
[Android Apps and Games] yann06:
Hi..

Just an advice.. I've try many rom with otg cable and stickmount on my nexus 7... I ve installed also busybox each time... Sometimes it takes time to get stickmount working.....

I had empty folder on sda, sea 1 or stickmount busy...

But at the end it works as a charm... I ve download from the market the Setenforce toggle too.. And install ntfs 3g.zip

Procedure :

Clean davilk cache

Start without plug your USB card

Check if window recognise it and fix error for the ntfs

Check if you can mount it on recovery..

Sometimes.. Fix permission once

Also I am using "usb host check" from market to fix it

Sometimes it still busy.. I plug the USB charger and reboot than after a while swap to otg..

But once it works... It's fine till you change your kernel

I'm using a fat32 usb2 hdd and a NTFS usb3 drive on a rooted Galaxy S3 (I9305). While it was running 4.1.2 everything was fine but I had to use Paragon's NTFS app on the usb3 drive.

Since moving up to 4.3 with the stock german ROM I couldn't get the NTFS drive to work. I've since updated my stickmount and hoped that it would work but, like many others, when I navigate to the usbStorage file I get an empty sda1 folder.

I've tried using USB Host Check as mentioned in the previous post and it says...

android.hardware.usb.host.xml - says OK

handheld_core_hardware.xml - USB host not enabled

tablet_core_hardware.xml - not found

I tried the fix, restarted and now neither drive shows up!!

SO not only can I no longer access the NTFS drive, the FAT32 cant be accessed!! How to I remove the permissions or whatever that bloody app applied??

I have just installed Chainfire's usb host diagnostics and have the read out from that if its of any help to people?

Holy **** I am stupid. After checking with a FAT32 stick which work I got back to start and noticed that I haven't unzipped the NTFS driver package, Instead I just copied the zip into my sdcard root. Now everything works like a charm. :highfive:

thanks finally got ntfs write to work
[Android Apps and Games] neo5468:
This thing doesn't work for me. It finds the drive and mounts it, but when I go to the folder location /usbStorage/sdb/ it is empty, Nexus media importer detects and mounts usb stick in a second. And it works like a charm as well. But for nexus media importer to work, I have to be online each time I start the application which is sometimes impossible since I don't have internet connection always available. So i'm trying other apps, but absolutely no other app mounts my drive.

"Easy OTG Checker" app detects my usb stick, and shows its name. Other similar apps do that as well, so OTG and drive should be working perfectly, but yet, only nexus media importer manages to detect my usb and it is the only one where I can actually watch a movie from it. How is that?

I have n7 2013 and A-Data S102 Pro Advanced 64GB usb stick formatted to NTFS.

And yes, I did try that ntfs-3g thingy, but it's still not working.

[Android Apps and Games] CDKJudoka:
I am getting the same thing. Worked great in stock 4.4.2 KitKat, but I went to a CM11 based rom and I get the above error. I can see the card in both File Manager and ES File Explorer, but I can't see the content of the card. I know it is formatted properly because I can see it and it's content as well as write to it in TWRP.

In my troubleshooting I uninstalled, re-installed and SU picked it up immediately. I gave it root access and it opens. I uninstalled the Pro license thinking something was corrupt there, but to no avail.
[Android Apps and Games] OOPMan:
Hey

I'd like to thank you for making StickMount as it has allowed me to fully utilise my OUYA as an XBMC device.

However, I was wondering if you would consider adding one feature to it...

Currently it produces mounts like: /sdcard0/usbStorage/sda1 and /sdcard0/usbStorage/sdb2

Would it be possible to provide the ability to create mount-points based on volume names?

For example: /sdcard0/usbStorage/MYDRIVEA and /sdcard0/usbStorage/SomeDriveB

The reason I ask is that StickMount seems to handle the two dual-bay hard-drive docks plugged into my OUYA via a USB hub rather strangely.

1 drive from 1 dock becomes sda, the next from the other dock becomes sdb, then dock 1 drive 2 gets sdc and finally dock 2 drive 2 gets sdd. Even worse,

if I switch the USB cables this changes again!

There is also an issue were on 2 of my drives it creates extra mount points with nothing in them. For example,

I get sda1 and sda2 but only sda2 maps to an actual usable partition on the drive.

I suspect having the option to create mount points based on volume name or UUID would go a long way towards sorting this and it is the solution

used currently on my desktop linux (On sabayon, drives get mounted at /var/run/media/<USERNAME>/<VOLNAME>/.

Would you consider adding this feature?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Tzfardaya:
sda1/2? double check those drives to make sure you don't have an empty first partition...

as to the sda/sdb sdc/sdd issue sounds like the a bad cable between the hub and phone... even on linux with removable drives that can happen if the drive is removed and reseated before it has been cleared from mtab and other system files.
[Android Apps and Games] OOPMan:
The empty partitions thing isn't a huge issue. It's just annoying.

What I really would like is mount-points that correspond to volume names. This would be really useful as it would mean that I can rely on a given drive being mounted with a given name.

Hi guys, i have a problem with stickmount in my nexus 5, turns out that i have a 12GB file and 4GB free space in my internal memory, the stick is mounted 32GB NTFS, if i try to send the 12GB file it says there are not enough space, but the stick has 20GB free.

If i transfer a 2GB file is ok but not with 2.5GB, whats the problem here there is enough space in the stick?

I love the app dont have pro yet and can't find a feature list? Does it only include those two grey options?

My only problem with stickmount is the boot up wait. I use stickmount for my mp3 player and the player is up and ready before the mount is made. Is there any way to speed up or semi-permanent the mount ( virtual shadows of the files ). Because once my player is ready, I have to keep futzing with it to make it work because the mount was not ready. Even if the mount becomes ready it still is fussy.

Would it help to do a .noscan? I dont really know what the scanning entails. The player also had scan or dont scan on load. Maybe all this scanning is slowing it down? I guess I just want it to work like its a permanently mounted drive where possible. If pro will help me, I'm happy to pay for it.

problem reading files on sticks

Hi,

my rooted nexus 5 (4.4.2) has stickmount and supersu, and the usb sticks are recognized and mounted, but the files on the stick don't show up. besides, I made some new maps on the stick with my pc, they also don't show up, all 3 stick I have tested (FAT32, ExFat and NTSC)

Please help me get it right.

seems like no matter what i do i can't get this to work on my nexus 5. always says mount service is busy when trying to unmount and never actually mounts the device. no icon in notification. have the exfat binaries installed and using supersu. even have a custom kernel that allows exfat. nothing will work. just freezes up my device. have to three finger reboot. i would much rather use this application rather than nexus media importer.
[Android Apps and Games] OOPMan:
Nice work on the new release.

I see volume labels still aren't supposed though :(

Maybe you would consider using UUID labels at least?

On Android 4.1.2 at least the *nix command blkid is available and this command can be used to obtain the UUID for a given device. The nice thing about the UUID is that it should remain constant even if the /dev/sdXXYY mapping changes and hence it makes for a good volume label in /sdcard/usbStorage/
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Unfortunately there is very little I can do without details about why it isn't working. All I can do is guess, and I'm all out of guesses.

I did look into the volume label thing, but there doesn't really appear a standard way to retrieve volume labels on Linux that also works on Android. sysfs 'by-name' listing isn't supported by the kernels. Didn't know about blkid though.

After further checking, I see blkid does report the labels. I'll look into this.
[Android Apps and Games] OOPMan:
Thanks Chainfire, I really appreciate you taking the time to look into this :)
[Android Apps and Games] purg:

I found all these people who describe the same problem I am having, but not one single response to any of them. I have a Moto X, and I successfully used StickMount to read from and write to my Meenova with a 16GB FAT32 SD card about a month ago. I went to use it today, and found that the sdcard/usbStorage/sda1 directory was empty, despite there actually being files and folders on the SD card. I was also unable to write anything to the drive with ES Explorer. It said "Permission denied" when I tried to copy a file to it. I don't think I have changed anything in my setup that could have caused this. I reverted back to StickMount 2.4, which is as far back as I had in Titanium Backup, but that did not fix the problem. I'm stumped. It worked, and now it doesn't. Any suggestions?

EDIT: I'm ashamed to admit it, but I rebooted, and now it works. I should have tried that before posting, but I still have no idea why it didn't work before that. I'll have to try it several times over the next week or two and see if the problem reoccurs.

Different Results with Different Flash Drives

Hi Chainfire, thanks for all your great work on this tool.

I don't know if this helps, but I can mount a 16GB Transend JetFlash 700 drive on my Nexus 5, but I can't mount a 32GB Lexar Jumpdrive S23 - I get the 'mount service is busy, try again later' issue. Both these drives are USB3.0, but the S23 is quite a bit faster - I wonder if the issue is related to the brand or type of flash chips in the drives?

Edit: With the Lexar formatted with exFAT, I don't get a Stickmount notification. With it reformatted as FAT, I get the notification, but i'm still unable to access any files on the drive. I have to hard reset after trying this because I'm unable to unmount the drive.

Edit 2: The Lexar drive works fine on my Nexus 7 with the same OTG cable and version on Stickmount. I wonder if the Nexus 5 can't put enough juice out for this drive?

I've been using Stickmount for at least a year now and it has worked flawlessly on my Nexus 7 (flo) and HTC One X.

I just tried my 4GB flash drive to see what happens and that mounts perfectly, so what could be causing this? :confused:

It works perfect with a 3gb exfat hd on a lg g pad, but.... If I unmount and remount it changes the mount folder from sda to sdb to sdc etc. This is a problem because I have apps that generated thumnails and loose them when the folder changes. Any way to fix the path? Thanks.

I noticed something last night when I had my USB stick mounted on my N5, and I appreciate it's probably not the fault of StickMount but wanted to post it here for information as I couldn't find it mentioned elsewhere.

Seems that Qi charging does not work when the USB port is occupied as it would be when using an OTG cable. I was a bit disappointed as I wanted to leave a large data copy running and though if I could leave it charging I wouldn't have to worry about killing the battery. Disconnect the OTG cable and Qi charging is re-enabled.
