[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Philip:
I think I’m about to give up on finding a solution, having tried just about everything (including the ideas mentioned above).

I’ve tried formatting the drive with the phone, using the USB-C/USB-A adapter that came with the phone. Worked fine, but the phone still didn’t recognise the OTG drive afterwards.

It’s not a physical connection issue (on the rare – and not repeatable - occasions that the OTG drive has worked in the phone, wiggling it around makes no difference). I’ve tried all my testing without a case fitted and the OTG Troubleshooter app that I mentioned above reliably indicates “OTG Detected” when I plug it in.

It’s not a faulty OTG drive – it works fine in my other phones (S8+ and Note 8). All are Exynos.

It’s not a faulty socket on the Note 9 – any other USB-C plugs (including the adapter which came with the phone and a USB-C cable connecting it to my PC) work faultlessly.

My best guess is that there’s some incompatibility – perhaps some sort of timing issue, but I’m not a hardware guy – between this particular OTG drive and this particular phone. The fact that the same combination works for some people here, but not for others, suggests that it’s just one of those strange compatibility issues, but without gathering a whole lot of data about what exact configurations work and which don’t, it’s almost impossible to troubleshoot - and there probably aren’t enough people here to gather sufficient data to do that.

This information on USB OTG may be helpful.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_On-The-Go

I don't think there is a USB otg flash drive

If I understand correctly it's the phone that can act as USB host or slave
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] DeVilio:
My phone works just fine with Samsung USB 128 gigabyte flash drive, but recently it just randomly stops working. I don't have any solution but I know that pendrive is okay USB cable is okay the problem is in the note 9. I tested it with S8 phone and other Huawei phone and it works like charms. Note 9 just randomly stopped working. What the hell??!?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
your usb c port in the phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] DeVilio:
Yes. I have Note9.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] drrkgupta:
My Strontium 128 gb flash drive works well.

i also connected a Hard disk and it was read well. I used the Microsoft exFAT/ NTFS for USB by Paragon Software.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
lol yes you do. you might also have a damaged or dirty port.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] DeVilio:
I wish :( other devises such as USB DAC sound cards working good, mouse and keyboard also. Onli pendrives and hard drives is not working and is not recognizable. I think that i know why this is not working - i`ve tried to use some apps that can help manage hard drives at phone, and i thing that this apps messed up something in my software but i dont know what. So before - my pendrive was visible and i could copy files and now - phone cannot see any flashdrives.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
well then that is much better than having a physical issue.

just uninstall that app. you can also try booting in safe mode:

https://www.samsung.com/au/support/mobile-devices/how-to-start-your-device-in-safe-mode/

or last resort factory reset.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] DeVilio:
I already uninstalled that apps, but i am afraid that this is no coincidence, i think that developer can trigger some setting via their app so user will be forced to use their apps just to make pendrives work again. I know that i can factory reset my phone but come on! I have this phone for 1 month now, i hate to reset phone when i don`t have to because of setting up everything and logging everywhere etc. I will try that safe mode but i don`t know what difference that it makes for my normal usage.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
try it, you never know
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] DeVilio:
Ok, i will try this at home, because i don`t have OTG C cable with me now. :/ I`ll let you know about results.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Anilkumarsingh:
The adapter comes with your Samsung Galaxy S9 is fully fledge USB OTG connector. So you can also try this method as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] DeVilio:
So, update to 9.0 came just moment ago, everything is installed, i connected the same setup that was not working and now - everything works fine. So - i dont know why that was not working, but now - yay! Problem is gone.

And for the record - i`ve try that original adapter that samsung provide with note9 that has otg and it did not work either with old system. My otg cable is ok, that was software failure.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] xviiviiixiv:
My OTG is not working. I've tried the following:

Plugging in the converter and then the drive

Attached the converter to the drive and then plugging it in

Reboot the phone with the drive plugged in

Changing the USB configuration

Using different drives

Using SDCard reader

Even tried a mouse, wired and bluetooth, not working

The drive I'm using is an older Sandisk with USB and microUSB. Been using it with my Tab S2. I think I've tried almost everything except a type C drive. The converter is definitely working cause I can charge using it. Any kind soul could assist me? Note 9 with Oreo 8.1
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
well seems to me what ever is plugged in the usb C and is converting to a full size usb A is the culprit here. do you have a case or something that might impede the plug from going far enough in the phone's socket?

any pocket lint accumuation in the base of the usb c port in the phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] xviiviiixiv:
Nothing is preventing the converter from going into the phone fully. Also, I've tried both microusb and USB A converters
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Sprocket16:
OTG adaptor first

I had the exact same issue & if you plug the adaptor in to your note 9 FIRST then plug a usb drive in to the adaptor SECOND you will have no issues. Its the only way that it works on my 9 however on my 8 it didn't matter.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] berkut_g:
There is a problem with note 9 and OTG support.

If you have a micro-sd card inserted into the phone then OTG does not work.

Take out the micro-sd and OTG miraculously shows up in My files/ ES file explorer etc.

Although ES file explorer is able to detec both the micro sd and the OTG it will give out an error when trying to access the OTG.

This is clearly a software issue that Samsung should address.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] A.Noob:
Short answer: otg to phone FIRST> THEN hd cord usb to otg> go to notification bar, look for Connected android device charging (something like that), swipe the notification to the left, click the gear, android system (per app) notifications>USB connection> untick from silent and then tick on sound and pop-up>when the pop-up for: Do you want generic file explorer to have access to external hd? PRESS CANCEL. When you open a file explorer, it automatically has access anyway.

Long answer: Awwwww! I just figured it out! I was having the same/close to the same problem with my WD passport 1tb external hard drive. I was using an Aukey otg connector and then the Samsung otg connector from the box.

First I used the Samsung otg like someone else posted in this forum. Then I also took advice from another in this forum who said to put the otg in then the cord to the external hd. But the notification said something like: High powered usb/hd device. Cannot.... (I assume it read something close to: I am a stupid robot who is somehow smarter than you. Kneel before Zod.)

I couldn't read the rest of the notification to see what else I could do. So I swiped left in the above mentioned notification area and clicked on the gear > details. That took me to the notification settings for android system and then it scrolled and then highlighted the USB connection tick that controls the notification. Then I clicked on it, that setting had been originally set to silent and minimized (not sure if that was the default or if I did something human-stupid). (Also the notification being set to silent and minimized makes some apps act weird I noticed. Should only use silent ticks for notifications if peace is to be attained). Anyway, I changed silent and minimized to Sound and Pop Up. Then I plugged in the otg then the cord to hd and the notification came up and I clicked on it and Zod, I mean Snapdragon Pie US Note 9 recognized the device finally. (I am definitely not being controlled by bots. Esaelp pleh.) I could copy stuff from micro SD and internal to the passport hard drive. Yeahhhhhh!

Upon further testing, my Aukey otg connector worked just fine. Also, some file explorers make the phone freak so when a pop-up like: Do you want generic file explorer to have access to external storage? Press cancel or else the phone might not recognize external hd. Then when you open the file explorer it automatically has access to it anyway.

This is after I formatted the external hd like one hundred times with my mac using all different settings of exfat and ms-dos Fat 32. I ended up using mac disk utility >master boot >exfat for the format of hd.

P.S.: I named my hd after myself and when I ejected the hd it said: My name, Unmounted. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Netspy80:
I know you will think that I am joking. But I got a solution. If I plug the adaptor first and then the memory stick it works ok? So maybe I can make a trick to cheat the machine. I tried plugging in the memory stick to phone very very very slowly. So that the phone thinks I plugged the adaptor first and then plugged the stick. And it worked. I took a video about what and how I did it. I hope it works for you too. And sorry for my english.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] RonB_USA:
Thanks for this TIP. It works 100% of the time now with my S10+ and a ZOOM H1 audio recorder.

Plug the USB > C adapter into the S10+ FIRST. Wait a couple of seconds. Then plug in the USB cable (or USB storage whatever) into the adapter. Bravo!

Pull down the notification blind and there it shows the USB storage device by name. Shows "Tap here to transfer media files".

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] TheeDragon:
Having the same problem

I've been having the same problem. I've used the OTG converter that came with the Note 9 and it doesn't work. It does work on my S8 with no problems. I've also tried some third party OTG converters with the same results. After reading this method of plugging in the OTG converter into the Note 9 first, then plugging in my flash drive (PNY) it worked! I then tried the third party OTG converters and was successful with this method as well. Now I went back and tried to plug the flash drive into the OTG converters first then into the Note 9 to be sure that method was still a failure, and it was. The Note 9 was unable to read the flash drive if it was first plugged into the OTG converter first. This method failed with every flash drive (SanDisk, PNY, Samsung, Cruzer, and some no-name brands) I tried it with. I could only get the Note 9 to recognize any flash drive by first plugging the OTG converter into the Note 9 first, then plugging in the flash drive after. I got the same results with even the 3rd party OTG converters. After saying that, it appears the bug is with the Note 9, since it works just fine with the S8 either way. Appears that Samsung needs to look into this problem since I know a lot of people use the OTG converters for a variety of applications and those I know with Note 9s, are having the same problem. I let those people know what I found out and for those that didn't give up on their Note 9s for something else, they have all had success with this method. The ones that did give up, only wish I had found this out sooner.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] macgyver40:
I have 2 note 9s and just sent 1 back. All 3 had no issue with how we used OTG. I have a 32gb sandisk usb A to Micro it's been plugged into the samsung OTG adapter since I bought the phone. Every Sat I plug it into my phone and do a backup.

Note 9 512GB

Note 9 128GB x2

All on AT&T latest. Also just used the Samsung OTG to backup for the warranty replacement. That took a few back and forth with zero issues how we did it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] SamsungNote9user:
Hi. This worked for me. Pull down the screen with one finger to view notifications. Then Try to connect the OTG (included from the package) on the phone. Let it be recongnized by the phone. It will say charging connected device via usb. Then plug your flash disk/external drive/ on the otg while it is connected to phone. The drive should then be recognized. This is how mine worked. Hope it helps you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Philip:
Thanks for the suggestions, but that was posted over 2 years ago, and the Note 9 is long gone (replaced firstly by a Note 10+ and most recently by a OnePlus 8 Pro).

Out of curiosity, I just tried plugging the OTG drive into the 8 Pro and it worked with no issues.

What is the best (cheap) replacement battery for galaxy s7 G930 F? and what is the best back cover (cheap)? because I often read conflicting opinions, where the back cover is made of plastic and not of glass in many and the battery is perhaps not original. The phone is more than 2 years with some scratches on the side and with the back cover broken, I would like to understand if I can give it a settled, and restore the battery life with a small expense in the order of 20/25 € ... spend more is definitely not worth it ...

I am getting a Chinese OP6T that comes with H2OS in 2 weeks time. Any easy way (guide) to flash stock OOS to this Chinese phone A6010? Thanks in advance.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Abaddon:
just unlock the bootloader and sideload the oos.zip (full) in stock recovery then flash it from there. you could also do fastboot method. works on my oneplus device since the 3/3T days.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chincheang:
Have you done it for oneplus 6T yourself? I was wondering whether the A/B partitions in OP6T will have a different approach to flash...

Thank you.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] fangchunxi1999:
according to my friend chinese oneplus 6

you only need a full flash zip of oos and just local update from updater in the phone

no need to unlock bootloader

PS. and no need to factory reset too, but i still recommend to reset it
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Cye3s:
I am from China, and use Chinese OP6T (A6010) that comes with H2OS

just like fangchunxi1999 says, put full OOS zip on 6t sdcard, local update from updater in the phone setting

after finish, do a factory reset, OOS now!
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chincheang:
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I will do the same when I get hold of my phone. I asked someone to hand carry for me.

By the way, do you root your phone too?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] pistachio12:
Interestingly enough I just bought a 6t in China and I have been thinking about this.

- Question for you. Will you still be in China? If not, or you are planning a vacation somewhere, OnePlus support will actually help you flash OOS on your device. This only works outside of China though (even if you have a VPN).

- For others: what is the big difference between H2OS and OOS? I considered flashing, but I have a trip outside of China in a week so I was thinking I can just wait until then and let OnePlus do the flash for me. For now though, I have installed all the apps I want including Google apps and a VPN. Is there any real reason I would want to flash to OOS instead of just leaving it as H2OS? Thanks for any answers.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chincheang:
No. I am in Malaysia. I ask someone who happen to be there to bring it back for me. Dont think there is a oneplus support Centre here.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Cye3s:
Yes, root just after OOS first boot.

use this:

https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t-unlock-bootloader-root/
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] pistachio12:
This isn't at a support center. I just asked used OnePlus support online and they can do it for you through a PC with Windows installed.

Just got Device is corrupted, dont know how to restore it back. Someone said I could use MMSDownloadTool but there was not a version for HydrogenOS. I wonder I could use this from International MMSDownloadTool but I'm so afraid I would brick my Chinese variant device.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Logan0829:
Well here's a question. If I wanted to flash h2os onto my international unlocked op6t could I do the same method just reversed?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Dark Nightmare:
In all honesty, you can either:

Unlock the bootloader back and just use the device as is or sideload the OOS.zip or you can try the global tool and hope for the best, since unless you unlock, the device is unusable anyways, if someone can get the Chinese variants tool it would be a Chinese user, others can’t request it..you’re better off contacting OP via chat and push for an OS reflash until they oblige and make an appointment with a tech to remote flash for you.

---------- Post added at 03:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:34 PM ----------

Well I would guess they work vice verse, worse case it doesn’t work, you can always use the msm tool to recover.
