Finally!!! Thank you so much. I’ve been trying like crazy to move files to free up space.
Thanks Mr. Gupta. A huge help! You explain things well. Your efforts are greatly appreciated.
Mr Gupta you're the man! thanks to you I finally figured it out after all these years!
Thanks for you comment, glad I could help!
Explaining and showing how to install an external memory stick was extremely helpful. Thank you. I just want t move applications, for example: Disney, hulu, pbs, etc. A simple "drag and drop" would be great. I'm sure I'll figure it out.
Thanks sir, It was very much needed.👏🏻
Thank you - very helpful.
Your speech,and demo is fantastic,and is very helpful,
Thank you so much
Thank you! 😃
Such a great help: this has been driving me nuts!! Thanks!
same
HELP!! I've installed the otg cord to my firestick and a usb flash drive, but there is no usb drive or external storage device listed. Not in setting, not in es file, no where. How can I get the flash drive to register as an external storage???????? Please help me, my fire stick keep showing the popup message that my memory is low.
Same issue..but I am using Mi TV stick
Same issue with me. No way ?
@@asad12301 same issue man
Did you format it to FAT32?
Additionally you can have a hub there, add bluetooth adapter for Bluetooth headphones and remote too
thank you very much this video helped me a lot.
Thank you very much for this information Mr Gupta. Avery great help to me in adding more memory to my fire stick!
Is there a work around if I have a network adapter hub also connected to firestick. Seems to only work if otg cable is connected directly to firestick
Rabat I think this is the cable that would help to power up my Vizio tv that I have in the garage. Helpful video - Thanks
You are welcome, try it :)
Useful video.
Hey do you know the maximum external storage drive to firestick size? Is 6TB possible?
Hi is this storage only for moving files? My stick is full because of the apps and I’ve cleared as much as I can. Followed your video to the point of holding middle buttons to select app. The options to cut/copy are at the bottom o just can’t get the option to highlight it.
Thank you for this video. I added a USB stick and ES file manager sees it, I find the files I want to move, but when I hold the center button it only attempts to play the file and does not select it (I am using the firestick remote app since my dog ate the firestick remote 🤷♀️)... any suggestions how to get around this?
Hello Rajat, thank you for the videos and thank you for making these videos. I have a question.
I have a new HD Firestick I purchased last week so it is the new release. I am from Canada.
I purchased two things from amazon as well - 1) OTG cable (the one in your video) and 2) Ethernet adapter so I can connect through ethernet from my router directly to my Firestick.
I followed your instructions to connect my OTG cable and I am using a spare 16gb external USB SanDisk i have. As soon I connect everything it says no internet connection and the external storage mount pop-up did not come up. I tried another spare external USB drive and the same thing happened. I also restarted my Firestick and my modem but that did not help. I unplugged the Firestick and I tried plugging it in again but did not work. As soon as I removed the OTG cable and go back to the original setting everything works fine. Do you have any recommendations on what I can do to make this work?
i believe you have to format your USB to fat32
Best xplained
How to play videos from usb drive once connected otg to fire stick. Can we use vlc player for playing any format videos instead of es premium??
I hope this works. The ADB apk only worked for my other 4K Firestick. This might work for my older Firestick (I hope)
Hi! Does the 2021 version read 4k files with a downscale to 1080 or doesnt read them? Thanx
Hi, I have an old sony TV, and the in built movie player doesn't support videos in x265 format. Which a lot of downloaded content is in.
Does Amazon fire tv stick have any apps that will allow to watch those x265 files which are on my hard drive?
Hi. Would any flash drive work with the cable/4K Fire Stick? I was told that I need a 3.0
Easy the 4k max has the option for the way this man says by adding an OTG cable with a USB stick. Troypoint has a better instructional video for this without the necessity of any other app! Also Tech Doctor shows how you can practically do it with any fire stick! Take your pick Troypoint or Tech Doctor. Either one guaranteed!!!
Mr Gupta I have the ES explorer but anytime I run that program or downloader I cannot see where my clicker is the whole screen is white so I can't see it Is there a way you can tell me how to reset something so I could see where the highlighter is?
Sir can you please send me Es file explorer app link by through which we can download
Hi Mr. Gupta, please does it work with Firestick Lite too? Thanks
Thank you
I just bought this and received it today. How do I format the flash drive? Format on a computer first?
Sir, i have a mic who's male side is 6 mm and i have a 6 mm to 3.5 mm jack converter...
So if i plug that into my pc will it work? Or i need to give it additional power? I have a dynamic mic
6 mm is the average
Hi,
I did attached a usb using OTG cable but I do not see the USB option, I can see the external storage in x-plore and I can copy files that I down loaded to it but I can't see
in the system any where, any idea?
Very good video sir thanks. Sir can you please tell me how to install Google drive on fire TV stick
Can u suggest any for chromecast
How do you record from iptv you got a video on this keeps saying only micro sd then when I try record it starts to run out of space but doesn't give me option to record onto external drive.??
Not available any other link to buy?
How is video play back quality from USB?
Will adding a USB drive add space to add apps to the Firestick or is just for content like media etc. ?! I'm getting the "low space" alerts, thanks.
You will have to move the data yourself to external drive.
My TV's aux port doesn't give clear audio. So, can I use a USB sound card to extract sound??
does it support all formats of USB like exfat,ntfs,fat32 and the indian link given does not work
Hi, can you define the external HD as your default device for future recordings?
it wont allow you to record any streaming, you need to have a video capture to do that. This is essentially just a storage for extra apps, but it also allows you to transfer files with an app like xplore file manager.
So can you add a video captr stick into this equation?
Good
Hi, i bought brand new fireTV 4k + brand new Logitech G F710 gamepad + this same OTG cable. But this setup is not detecting my gamepad in either D or X modes. Any ideas why and what to be done to make my gamepad work?

Not that only miscroSD cards can be used to expand storage for app installation" I don't want to install movies externally.

Rajat...How can I get files downloaded to the ES File Explorer so they can be put on the external USB stick ? . Do I need a VPN to do this ? . Thank you .
Hello, I think you want to download files and move them to USB stick right? If yes, then you can use the Downloader app for any kind of downloading and then move the files to USB either through firestick or by connecting it to a PC. ruclips.net/video/h_GEgMj6ENE/видео.html

Hi! I already use an SD card for my fire stick. If I want to set up and load an SD card for my sisters fire stick who lives in a different house.... if I get her IP address to set up the card will it work? A friend of mine used her SD card in someone else’s home and it did not see it. Thank you in advance.
I don’t get indication that new memory added. Per other videos, I installed ADB shell. Couldn’t get that to work. Have 4K,hub, OTG cable, all separately powered. 32GB, FAT 32. What now?
Im using a SanDisk 128gb extreme microsdxc uhs-1 with USB adapter and it works great maybe its the writing speed on your SD card?
It's supported on realme Android TV stick ?
Can you use an external hard drive.
Hello, THis cable come with the fire TV?
No. Look at the links under the video for OTG Cable. It costs about £6 from amazon
Where is the link for this o t g ?

Sir 64 gb is not supported. Only supported FAT32 Devuce
My es explorer no longer has sd card. I would move from internal storage to sd card. And it would be writing it on a thumb drive. When I would move it from internal to usb. It takes forever. Now it doesn't show a sd card. When it didn't show a sd card. I'd unplug it when it came back up with the sd card. That no longer works. How do I get the sd card up on es explorer pro? Now installing a new thumb drive. It says it is 100% full.
When i go to the app it just keeps saying loading for the usb. Do you know why i would have this problem?
Can we transfer any app from USB to fire stick

@Rajat, under what conditions Will it not work?
My firestick tv is constantly restarting when I connect a pendrive. What could be wrong?
Hey Yogesh,
did u come to know of the reason and solution ?
@@dileshsolanki2383 Yes. The reason is power supply. I figured out from a different forum that the adapter output should be increased to a higher one (something like a 2A).
I tried using my OnePlus adapter and it works like a breeze.
@@pixelfiesta awesome..good to know

Es file explorer bhi Kiya hai tabhi bhi nai dikhra hai ab kya kru plz reply
Tired to wire my Ethernet to my Firestick through a USB and OTG cable but it just doesn’t show up. I have X2 LG TV’s (OLED) and none of them pick that it is wired up,just doesn’t appear on either of the LG TV’s. I plug it into my Sony tv and it shows straight away on the Firestick that it is hard wired. Tried everything,even lowering the display on the LG TV’s to 720p and still nothing. Very strange but I am out of option! 🤷♂️
Your eyebrows are cool!
hahaha
Will this work with a Mi TV Stick?
Rabat, step 3, selecting “download”, that folder is empty, there’s nothing to cut & paste, but I’m still getting “low internal memory” warning. What can I do?
You are in luck my friend, i already have a video on it ruclips.net/video/K0P7Z_UX9G0/видео.html
it does work with fire stick lite
I’ve connected the usb and i see the disk in ES but it says Loading…. And it’s been saying loading for 10 minutes. There’s nothing on the drive. Do I need to reformat it?
