Dear All,
I am having Micromax Magnus A117 mobile phone. It's working fine till now. Now a day I am facing one problem regarding USB connectivity.
Whenever I connect mobile phone to my laptop using USB cable, and choose the option of USB storage then only one drive i.e. Internal Memory is being displayed in the laptop. External Memory card is not shown. I had inserted Micro SD cardo 16 GB.
after disconnecting phone from laptop, apps that are installed in memory card is not shown. after rebotting the phone, again its working fine.
please resolve this issue
regads,
Vinay Patel
Its simple Bro, just you media transfer mode (MTP) instead of usb storage...
Hit thanks if I helped...

Hi,
I am extremely sorry if this is not the right place to ask this.
I got my Mi4i on the first flash. As soon as I got the phone, I did the MIUI 6.5.3.0 (LXIMICD) update. I did not check the USB OTG before the update, so not sure if it worked before the update or not. When I tried USB OTG, the Mount USB storage option is greyed out - always. I tried 2 different USBs and 2 different cables - still no luck. I am starting to suspect if its something wrong with this ROM release, as lots of areas in the setting is greyed out for me (for example, in the Headphones and Audio effects settings, the equalizer settings are always greyed out). So, have any of you tried USB OTG on MIUI 6.5.3.0? Any insights?
Yes I can assure u that USB OTG is working fine on MIUI 6.5.3.0
Check if the USB is a fat32 or ntfs?
Ntfs file system doesn't work with mi4i
Format the pen drive in fat32 and try again
I also tired a sd card reader it works brilliantly
Audio settings will be greyed out until u plugin headphones. Try any earphones or headphones then check if it still is greyed out

Thank you for the reply but I am still facing the issue...
Yes, the file system is Fat32 and the mi4i is still not recognizing the USB. Since the USB OTG is working fine for you, I suspect my OTG cable might be damaged ( weird- I tried 2 different cables).. Maybe I should try a different OTG pen drive?
PS: You were right about the audio settings, those worked when I plugged in the headphone..
same problem here.keyboard and mouse working but no usb drive with same otg cable. Otg card reader also not working.

If you're USB or SD Card is of huge capacity it may take time to load so I would suggest you to wait for a while, Android checks if the storage has an errors. It doesnt show in MIUI though. But wait for a while after plugging in.

Iam trying to use a 16 gb pendrive in fat32. And its not showing up for me as well. Help?

I have sandisk otg 64gb and it works without an issue. Make sure it is formatted with FAT. Other FS like exFAT and NTFS wont work, not sure about Fat32 though.
Hope this helps.
I bought a new 16gb Sandisk 3.0 OTG usb and its working fine for me now.
What's working:
* FAT formatted USB flash drives
* USB Mouse
* USB Keyboard
What's not working:
* NTFS formatted USB flash drives
* Portable USB hard drive
* USB Gamepad
I have an OTG cable lying around. Will soon test Linux file systems (ext2, ext3, etc.). Give me more suggestions, and i'll test it on the Mi 4i.

Aren't there root apps which enable ntfs support by installing a ntfs-3g driver?
The functionality is kernel-baked and not all kernels support the ntfs-3g driver. Also Xiaomi seems reluctant to release its sources anytime soon. There are alternatives like Stickmount however.

OTG
i am not able to tranzfer files frm internal storage to usb flash drive via OTG on mi4i.. In Miui file explorer mount usb doesnt open up, if i use es file explorer i am able to view files, mount & Unmount, but cannot copy from internai to USB, BUT the reverse is posssible, I.e, i can copy frm usb flash to internal storage. pls hlp friends
Is the USB FAT32 formated? Because it supports only FAT32 formated flash drives.
Mi4i can not copy from internal to usb otg storage
Actually I got the same problem.
I can not copy some files from internal storage to my usb otg storage. It said "failed EACCESS".
Could someone help me out?

Try using another OTG cable and maybe re-formatting your USB thumb. With me, some USB thumbs won't work with any OTG cable (mostly the cheap ones) but others works just fine. It requires some trial and error.
I tried Manny cord also tried dual USB drive but same happen .. All that work fine in moto g2 ,lenovo a7000 .also format my device but not work.
Should I flash custom ROM like cm n other or flash stock ROM
