Want to update 7.1.2 to 8.0 oreo using an ota.zip file
Have copied the file to a flashdrive and connected it via an otg cable.
Need to copy, move or transfer it to internal storage and then apply it in recovery mode.
Any help or step by step directions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
I am planning to flash custom rom on my anroid. I have rooted my htc one x and s-off is also done. Most of the topics I am reading for flashing says to copy ROM zip file on SD card. How can I copy files to SD card when there is no slot for SD card?
Regards,
Vijay
When people refer to the sd card on this device they're talking about the virtual sd card (internal storage). You can connect it to the PC in a couple of ways:
-Connect via a usb cable while booted into Android, if you're on a Jellybean Sense ROM it should show up as a removable drive in Windows automatically. If you're on an ICS Sense ROM you'll need to select disc drive from the notification menu that pops up when you connect. If you're on an aosp ROM you'll need to select the same thing from the notification menu.
-The other way is to boot into TWRP recovery, connect via usb cable, select Mount from the TWRP home screen, then select Mount USB Storage. Now it should show up as a removable drive in Windows.

Boot in recovery. Under the menu 'Mounts and Storage', chose to Mount USB storage. Now connect to computer and transfer your ROM.

I'm using ES File Manager to copy files from my computer to a new Note PRO. I can copy files to the internal storage but I can't copy to the external SD. Also, I cannot use ES File Manager to move files from internal storage to the SD. I can use the stock file manager to move files between internal and SD. So the questions are:
1) Can ES File Manager be made to copy files to the SD card?
2) If not, then can the stock file manager access Windows devices to copy files from the computer to the SD?
Likely the Kitkat SD write permission issue. See here:

Yep, that looks like it. Thank you. I'm not ready to root yet to solve the issue. I was not able to tell if this is a bug or by design. It's pretty limiting.
Still trying to figure out if the built-in file manager can be used to copy from a Windows computer to the SD card.
If you connect your tablet to your windows PC you should be able to access internal and external sdcard. They will show up as separate drives. If they don't, install Kies 3 then connect your tablet again.

I was hoping to get this done using wi-fi just for the convenience. It is something I did with previous devices. It always surprised when a basic feature goes away.
If you have an FTP server installed on your PC, My Files app can pull your files that way, then save them to external sdcard
ES File Explorer implemented the workaround within the first few days of KitKat's release. I've been using it to move files in all directions to and from my MicroSD on my Note 3, S5 and NotePro for months without issue. The main thing that doesn't work is renaming.
However, the WiFi transfer to MicroSD has been blocked by Google for security reasons after a series of WiFi-related file security problems. No file manager is capable of this without Root. Same as how you can no longer download files off the internet directly onto the MicroSD.
It's much faster to just pull out the MicroSD and plug it into a PC, anyway. The transfer protocols on Android are a nightmare.
Hi, I boot my phone normally, but I can go into fastboot and recovery (stock recovery). Is there any way I can copy files from the phone's internal memory so I can wipe it? I've tried connecting a usb cable in fastboot and recovery, but my pc doesn't recognize any device connected.
Please help me!
