[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nigelhealy:
sort of

I don't have my ordered N10 yet but I do have N4 and N7 and I have connected 1TB USB storage before so have some experience. The answer is a possible yes, depending on a few factors. You got the power issue and the filesystem issue.

For power, there is only so much coming out of the Android's USB port and if your storage device is on the higher powered side and gets its power from USB then you can be screwed, so more likely to work are ones which have their own power supply. Or, you can find a kernel hack which lets OTG host mode (I think that's what it is called?) which uses a Y-cable which takes power in and provides a USB connector. I have such had such Y-cable work with a specific Nexus 7 kernel (Timur kernel on Android 4.2) and recently Ziddey's kernel on my Nexus 4 also.

For filesystem, Stickmount, supports NTFS read-only, so you can connect to android device a device which is read-write on say a laptop/PC and copy files off - to be honest that is good enough for what you'd intend to - a fast copy of large amount of files before you go away from home for example. Or, you can format the drive in a more native to Linux filesystem like ext2, ext3, ext4 to get read-write large file support. Depending on what you also connect that drive to it might work, e.g. there are some ext3 drivers for Windows, or you can have say a Rasberry PI running Debian as your LAN NAS host and unplug the drive and connect to Android.

I have a Seagate 500GB drive, formatted as NTFS, and it does work with my N4 and N7 and so I predict it also will work with my N10. I have a Hitachi 1TB drive, it does work on my N4 as there is the Y-cable USB power ziddey hack but only on my N7 if I keep it on 4.2.2 with the Timur kernel hack. So what I did is I keep the 1TB formatted ext3 connecting to a Linux NAS device (a Seagate dockstar running Debian but a Rasberry Pi running Rasbian would the modern equivalent), and the 500GB drive is what I use as my carry-around device which connects to all my devices for fast large file transfer.

What is your intended use for a 1TB connected to N10?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwwpuntoit:
thanks mate for this answer

no particular use, maybe just movie playback

the point is that i have 2 1tb drives and i'm stuck not eing able to use them

using a y cable which should be connected to mains is not a solution for portability

would a smaller drive work without y cable ? or just usb sticks ? i did not understand fully
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nigelhealy:
So what else will these 2 1TB drives connect to? A Windows desktop,a MAC desktop, some kind of NAS....? Because the answer to that determines the filesystem support.So you are connecting it to a Windows desktop, it has to be formatted NTFS, then use Stickmount and its NTFS instructions.

For a Nexus 10 I don't think a Y-cable is needed,begin with the regular OTG cable and cross your fingers they don't need so much power they fail to work.

If it turns out you need more power then you'll have to find a USB powered hub type thing, and for portability get an external USB battery, which in general, is a useful thing to have to charge phone, tablet, etc.

So... buy an OTG cable first, there are threads with "OTG cable known to work".

Format the drive in your chosen host system.e.g connect to the Windows desktop and format it NTFS, copy files to it.

Your N10 should be rooted.

On your N10 install stickmount app from Play, and copy the ntfs-3g to /sdcard as per the app's instructions.

Connect your 1TB drive and cross your fingers. It might not work 1st time, sometimes it is 2nd or 3rd time it is recognized.

Stickmount will mount it, if it all works, showing sda1 type message, go the folder it shows briefly on screen.

If stickmount doesn't show a sda1 type message try again.

If it doesn't work then consider a USB powered hub and find a recommended one, or give up.

You are far more likely to get lower powered device like a USB Flash stick, and FAT for smaller files, to work than 1TB harddrive drive.

I have my 1TB drive connected to the equivalent of a Rasberry Pi on my home router which acts as a NAS, I can access it over the Internet and copy files off it over home Wifi before I leave home. I carry a 500GB drive, because as I said as it happened my 1TB drive didn't work, my 500GB drive did work, its the luck of the milliamps and timing and Stickmount's sensing it.

Begin with buying the $3 OTG cable.

Y-cable, I had mine for my N7 for use of Timur kernel so I could connect to power and use a USB device, in my case a 4G dongle, so I could be online 4G connected for hours. The Y-cable can connect to a USB battery pack for not being tied to mains socket. The same Y-cable happens to solve a problem for my N4 which could not power a USB device. To illustrate this is my 500GB drive connected to USB battery and my N4, the cables are the Y-cable and from Y-cable to battery.

If you want portability and power, then get the N10 Pogo cable it charges whilst your microsusb socket is kept empty to allow to connect to drives although I've not assembled that combination myself yet, so not sure it will work, by the time you get your OTG cable and tried, I should my N10 and my Pogo cable and speak more authoritatively less theoretically.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwwpuntoit:
Ok thanks again

By the way stickmount mounts sda1 ok but folder is shown ad empty and the drive itself makes some ticking noise
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nigelhealy:
So you had the OTG cable already. Why did you ask then?

Try NTFS checkdisk on Windows because often a Linux kernel won't mount a corrupted NTFS table whilst Windows will mount but nag a little about errors.

I don't use Windows, I run Linux desktop, its sudo ntfsfix command

Are you sure it is formatted NTFS???? You copied ntfs-3g to /sdcard ?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwwpuntoit:
I've put these files on che root of my SD, and now the 1tb is mounted properly, after a while though it starts ticking noise...maybe it's a sign it's not a good idea to plug it in because it might noto nave enough power to cicle properly althoug i can access files on it
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nigelhealy:
So, actually, all you needed to was follow the instructions for Stickmount.

In your context of copying files off, count your blessings, it is working. Enjoy. Connect, copy files off to N10 internal storage, and disconnect.

That ticking is not a necessary sign of a problem, it is going to idle often, but it is actually working. I get that same ticking noise for my 1TB drive connected to my Seagate dockstar and its been running for like a year. I'd not leave it connected to the N10 more than you have to.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwwpuntoit:
Ok so The idea in the first place was to stream movies from that drive so that might be a little too much asking I guess
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nigelhealy:
.... but it does actually do it right? So the answer to the OP is yes?

I have not looked at all the config files of Android but my 500GB drive, which does work, makes a similar clicking noise on my N7 and N4 as does my 1TB on my Raspberry Pi. My Linux (Ubuntu) desktop has a SSD primary and a HDD secondary internal drives and the HDD does have a bit of a "wooshing" noise when active and some clicking. On my Linux desktop when I unplug from mains power it goes into "laptop mode" which is aggressive in turning off and going quiet the HDD.

So I'd not take the noise as a necessary sign of failure / unreliability, I'd take it as a sign of Android's aggressive power management minimizing power going out of USB. If it works.... (it does right?) then just enjoy it, but if only for battery life reasons, you'd consume less power to copy files to your N10 and unplug the external drive and then watch, than to watch directly off the external drive. That is my intention when I travel with my N10 to use with my 500GB drive.

Also, I'd consider reformatting the drive to ext3, as everything Linux is just plain superior to anything Microsoft.:cool:it is then natively recognised by Android better than the Stickmount ntfs-3g hack. Or, as a halfway option, format to FAT32, but then the biggest filesize is 4GB. I have files ~5GB in size so I can't use FAT32.

Do you have a Pogo cable? It allows charging without use of the usb socket. If you're seriously thinking about keeping the 1TB connected for long times, consider the Pogo cable option. I've got mine on order and I'll let you know if when the Pogo cable is plugged in, my 500GB drive works.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwwpuntoit:
No don't have any cable.. I run Ubuntu at home too but dual boot with win8 since I do require old Microsoft here and there and I would like my drive to be recognised in both os. Don't think ext3 is recognised in Windows, is it.. Anyway thanks for giving me advise
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nigelhealy:
I dual-booted for 20 years, currently running Win VM ontop of Ubuntu, my last attachment to Windoze was Slingplayer, now I tend to run that on my N7 and soon N10.

Ext3 can be recognised by Windows - a lot depends on what is your primary OS. Take a look at http://www.fs-driver.org/ and http://www.ext2fsd.com/

Pick your hack. Based on what you've said, you're done, I'd stick with NTFS as it works stable on Android read-only (your only need), read-write stable on Ubuntu and Windoze.

Right now my 1TB is ext3 on my Dockstar (Rasberry Pi is modern equivalent) and my 500GB is NTFS moving between laptop and Android. My 1TB is my primary file-server, my primary system to save media as it is away from coffee spills, etc. If I had two 1TB drives, I'd run them as RAID 1 mirror on a NAS just for data integrity and carry a smaller power-efficient harddrive around for media streaming on-the-go which I plug into the NAS/laptop/Android as needed to move large files around. Backup, backup, backup!

Here are som pics of reallife note 3 with this metal case

its with a tempered glass screen protector allso

Signalstrenght and everything is the same as before, did not notice anny signalproblems 3g, wifi 4g and so go on

I like it:cool:
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mikemq2003:
Kinda looks like the hunter f case they made for the note 2.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Jfree3000:
Not trying to be that guy, but from the pic you provided the phone is using wifi but its roaming so do you actually own this case and is that roaming from the case? Every aluminum case I have seen posted here or any other phone accessory section on XDA has signal loss.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Yoeltimeisup:
It looks nice but there's no way it doesn't degrade the signal strength.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] GloriousGlory:
Don't bother. I bought one of these from ebay a couple weeks ago and it degrades your signal by 1-2 bars. It was night and day.. the minute you took it off your signal went up.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] nic2mit:
I also used this case for two days and it went to trash due to horrible grip(very uncomfortable grip) and side bumper being not tight enough.

It does look cool though..
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] m4sta2k:
Reason is becouse im using Mycall and www.mycall.no is using Telenor as nationally roaming partner. As there is better coverage with Telenor then the phone shows R. Mycall does not have as many sites as telenor so im connected to telenor instead.

This is mine case yes lol, check my other threads about tempered glass screen GLASs-M.

I agree with you guys it does look good, but its slippery and can easy fall out of my hands. Thats the online down I can find of this

Proof screenshot

Im in Oslo,Norway.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Jimmy2u:
I think it will create the signal problem......I want to buy a metal case for my N3 but the only reason I decided not to buy them is the signal problem...Is there anyone who can suggest a metal case for N3 which does not create this issue.....
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] 2manycells:
I have this case. It looks great, except it makes the phone look thicker, like the neohyrid - which I don't like.

As for signal, it's fine in areas with good signal, but in areas with poor signal like my office it sucks - which is why I switched back to my Diztronic case. Not as pretty but does the job.

Hi!

I have a problem with my One after flashing a RUU.exe. At first I just wanted to put my device S-OFF for installing a Google Edition Rom. I tried every method with no succes. So I thought going back to the start by flashing the RUU.

My phone was rooted and Bootloader unlocked by HTC Dev. I started with locking the Bootloader. Now I'm stuck in Bootloader because every RUU install failed by noticing me that i tried to flash the wrong version. Furthermore I have no recovery anymore. Tried to flash a new one but i failed. I tried to flash RUU: 50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7_..._release_310878_signed .exe and RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.1_..._release_ 308001_signed_2_4.exe

My device is a branding free version.

Bootloader shows:

Hboot 1.44

Radio 4A.16.3250.24

OpenDsp- v26.120.274.0202

I have absolutely no clue what to do. I need help please!

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MacLaughlin:
Don't know the modification date of HBOOT. I'm on 1.44.0000

Is the modification date eMMC-boot?

Then it would be the 10th of April 2013

Moonshine isn't working on my device. I've now flashed a stock rom. Still on S-ON
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
you have to use revone to get s-off on that hboot ^^, with a compatible ROM, I'll send you one by PM confirmed to be working....

then just follow the revone instructions correctly, and you should be have S-Off. (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2314582)

[Google Chromecast] uttarakumara:
Hi,

I am able to play a youtube live video with subscription(WillowTV) in chrome browser. But when i try to play it in chromecast it doesn't load. The TV screen shows it tries to play but shows back youtube standby screen. how can i play this in Chromecast?

Note: Casting a tab is not the option i'm looking for.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
This brings us an interesting question...

Does Chromecast "inherit" YouTube login credentials?

I don't think it does... I think your phone/tablet/Chrome just takes the YouTube link and sends it to Chromecast.

Thus, if the link requires some authentication at the YouTube account level, then it probably gets stuck.

What do you get in Chrome if you log out of YouTube then try to load the same page?

---------- Post added at 03:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:21 PM ----------

Ahh, I just came up with a test case... You can set a YouTube video to be private based on account. Going to try that in a bit.

---------- Post added at 04:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:30 PM ----------

Okay, here's what I did...

Uploaded video

Set video to Private

Opened YouTube on phone

Went to Uplaods

Video plays OK on phone

Cast video to Chromecast

Get message on phone: "This video is private and can not be played on name of Chromecast

This seems to confirm that Chromecast does not "log in as you" for YouTube, and therefore probably won't be able to play other restricted-access videos shared with your Google+/YouTube account.

I'm not sure how WillowTV handles the access restrictions, but I'm guessing when your subscription is active they set it so your Google+/YouTube account has access to their channel. If that's the case, it's likely not going to work for Chromecast until Google changes things. It'd be good to put in a support ticket with Google on this so they can either fix it or make it better known that private videos can't be casted.

Oh... They already do...

[Google Chromecast] :
Hello friends! Today I found something strange: I tried to cast a certain video and Chromecast says it is not available for casting. The video runs on my Nexus devices and I used to watch it on TV via Chromecast. Never had an issue so far. The video is Epic Rapbattles of history season 3 Hitler vs Vader. Is Google trying to prevent playing certain videos?
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Correcting myself a bit here, there's another Chromecast support article which deals with paid content in general:

https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/3285407

It says paid (YouTube) channels should work, but

live events

are currently not supported.

I got "This video is not available on your TV" Plays fine on my phone though.

Must be some attribute or setting on the video...
[Google Chromecast] :
Thanks for trying! The video was playing fine though days ago and it's old so I don't think the uploader changed anything... Maybe it's just a bug in the new YouTube app.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ben36:
This problem is not actually on my phone, it's on my missus' but I've changed the rom and the problem persists. So I assume it's something on the sd or internal storage or an app perhaps that isn't getting wiped when flashing roms....

When she presses her power button to turn the screen off, it goes off, but then lights back up again for no reason. She even says it can randomly light up to the lock screen when just sat on the side not even touched.

Any ideas anyone? It's really bloody annoying. Lol
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
It will just be an app waking up the phone. Perhaps using better battery stats with reference set to "screen off" looking at "alarms" can help identify what caused it.

It certainly wont be easy to track down the culprit though
