I am not able to connect usb OTG.

I tried to connect the USB Pen Drive to cable, instantly it showed the message to safely remove it. I tried to mount USB from setting also, but it is not able to mount it, it shows message to safely remove it.

I tried with different cable also, but the problem is same.

What should I do ?

USB host does work with the SP. I've only used one pendrive so far, an 8GB FAT32 one, and it worked perfectly. Also, the transfer speed is very good.

Maybe the SP is very sensitive to the current drawn by the pendrive, and if it's too high it immediately dismounts again, or won't even read it at all? Just guessing.

Ok so I've tested with a micro usb cable and it worked but not with every pendrive. Looks like some pendrive s are more power hungry.
