otg issues
Hei,
OTG cable is working fine however whenever I plugged the usb,
it detects "safe to remove external USB".
The pendrive was working fine with the phone. Problems started soon after I pull out the cable unexpectedly
Hope this helps: otg cable working with other phones , samsung s3 tested
pendrive works 8 gb
I recently used the pendrive for booting windows .??
Please help
Have you tried to do a fomat of the pen drive or some other pen drives?
Thanks for the hint.
This is how it works!
I formatted the pendrive on fat32 format. Previously i was using ntfs.(might be the windows installation change the format)
Now otg works with no issues.

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.

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.

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.

Hi sir, I have a Phonemax glam 5 mobile. I will reset the mobile & erase SD card. After complete the reset I will connect the laptop using usb cable. its only charging not connect media storage . how resolve this problem.pls reply me…
Hi,
Thanks for using XDA Assist.
Check your storage options in the system settings. Do you have MTP enabled?
So everything was working fine until I install a memory card that had my music. Now that I insert a memory card it does detect a memory card. But when I(apps basically, USB to computer does show both partition ) try to put stuff into phone memory it gives me error or worse doesnt even show a phone memory.
ES File manager once prompted me to select the location of memory card and then it started working but Bittorrent and CamScanner cant add data to phone memory...
Is there any fix for this bug???
P.S. if i eject the memory card from the storage, then all apps start using phone memory automatically and selecting memory card as my default storage doesnt help.
Thank you in advance!!!
BTW Im running stock(micromax) ROM 5.1 unrooted.

Hi !
Do you have the MTP drivers correctly installed for your device ?
Connect your device to a PC using the USB cable.
The device will automatically pop up as a USB computer connection. Tap Open the USB storage device.
If the USB computer connection does not pop up automatically, drag the Notification bar downward.
Choose the connected USB device and open USB storage. You will not be able to access the SD card in your device while the device is connected as USB storage. Set the SD card as USB mass storage to copy files between a PC and the SD card.
Cheers !
The problem in the phone ...cause i plugged the phone in many laptops and same problem ...
Is there any update or patch i can fix this ?
The only way i can fix is through recovery start up ....
My phone charging ampere is 400 ma after this bug
Heeeeeeeeeelp
