11/10 for this! NO irritating music or spurious ads, just KNOWLEDGE! Thank you Ricardo. Does this work on my Galaxy A3 - think it does but not sure. BRILLIANT - keep it up!
Thank you my friend appreciated
My Android was slightly different....but I would never have figured it out without this video!
👍🏿
Sabbur - you might have an older Galaxy A-series like my first phone. Now you know why I got a J5! Happy New Year..
@@tonywilliams8426 I have an Android. But it is not a Galaxy.
Coming from north Yorkshire it's rare to hear people with such clear voices thank you this really helped
Ok friend
Thanks. Your explanation was really helpful for me .
No need for that

@@rickytlc1985 did you have to download an app in order to have this flash drive work on the phone?
You see I have a SanDisk and it seems to require an app I tried to bypass it's not very obvious as to how.
Thank you so much...your clear step by step explanation has been so helpful to me. I ended up buying 3 flash drives thinking I'd bought the wrong ones or they weren't compatible to my phone. Your tutorial has been the only one I've been able to follow and make sense of. 👍
Fantastic. I had been wracking my brains trying to remember how to do this because I couldn't find understandable directions. You made it so clear. Thank you.
Now I can show my sister how to do it.
Glad directions were clear.
Thank goodness for your video! I bought a usb drive to transfer files to my samsung phone but didnt know how to go about it. You saved the day!! Thank you!!
Great video! You showed all the steps and explained very well. Thank you so much.
Honored -thanks for the feedback.
Winnie - shows it can be done eh? Happy new year bro!

After being confused by my phone not staying in file transfer mode but always switching back to charge (?) external ... took me 2 minutes into your video to solve my problem. Thank you good sir! (Pictures and music saved ;) )
How? My phone also not staying in transfer, he switch to charging
Just what i was looking for.
Clear
Concise
Easy to follow
Thank you ☺
No prob
Not on the devices directly in to cloud services without copy on the devices
This is exactly the tutorial I needed. Thanks for your clear and helpful step-by-step instructions.
Thanks for the feedback
The voice is so clear with the procedures, even a young one can understand. Thank you so much.
OK glad its clear.
I love this video
EXCELLENT tutorial. Nice and slow, with showing all the steps and what it looks like. Thank you!
I like the way you went step by step. I am 80 years old and I was able to follow and do it. Thank you
Love that you're 80 and still getting it done!
This was very helpful. I have a different version of Android but it's pretty easy to figure out exactly how to copy to a flash drive using your examples - Thank You!
A lot of videos here show how to do it but not from the start like you did, thanks it works 👍
Thanks bro, this is the Best slower pace video to learn it all at once as u clearly explain. Out of all the videos I've found it the Best🤓👍
Thanks happy its to your liking.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. I thought I lost my photos when it went to secure file. Very Helpful.
Awesome job! thanks for the very simple straightforward demonstration went from no clue to transferring all my files by 3:30 into the video! thanks for the share and stay awesome !
Glad directions were clear
I was looking for confirmation of process for copying/saving my android phone photos to my memory stick. This video did just that. Thanks.
Glad I had the solution
Thank you for explaining how to transfer files and photo's. You made it sound so easy.
Thank you for making this video. Solved my headache. Seemed so simple once I watched your video.
Very comprehensive demonstration. Thank you sir.
Why thank u
Pretty straight forward. Wanted to see exactly how this works before getting a flash drive adapter for my phone. Thanks. I'll give this a try when I get my adapter.
Ok glad I displayed what u were looking for
Here i was thinking i needed to download a third party app. Thanks Ricardo. New subscriber.
Thanks for the sub!
This darn drive didn't come with instructions. Thank you so much. I finally have space on my device. ❤
Very very clear and I like your clarity. Thanks
You are very welcome
Thankss a lott!! If not for this video, I would'nt have ever figured out how to use this flash drivee!! 🤩🤩
Thank you sir big up
Honestly thank you so much! I've been trying to move my files for ever and I watched a lot of videos but this was the only helpful one! There was just a slight difference for me maybe because of the update, when I pressed on copy I didn't have the menu bar. I simply had "copy here", so I was really confused, turns out you just have to go back and press on USB 1 and then press on "copy here".
Nice and glad you fogured it all out. Good job.
Thank you so much all steps explained how to transfer from phone to my Laptop using my USB drive.
Thanks glad its so
Perfect vedio thank you so much always needed phone flash🤝🤝
Very clear and helpful. Thank you Ricardo.

You did a GREAT JOB of simplifying this specific file/data transfer process! I'm feeling a lot more confident about transferring my S9's data to allow more Mini SD Card space. Thank you for making an easy to follow How To Video!👍

It works finally! Thank you so much!
This was extremely helpful. I do have a question, if I copy photos or videos to a USB drive will it transfer over with the date and time that the video/photo was originally taken or will it show the date and time when it was transferred? Thanks so much.
Thank you so very much Ricardo, you made this very easy for a tech illiterate.
Glad it was clear I try to keep it simple and in formative.
Thank you for the video. Great information on how to transfer pictures from an old g8 phone.

You have the best video of the zillion I have watched. THANKS!
Thank you my friend means a lot.
I know this video is old however, i would like to know can you transfer other things including videos, text messages, contacts, boomarks from chrome ect?
One more question can you also do this with older Android phones like a galaxy note 2? Or devices that only have a "usb charging port" input instead of usbc
Thank you for the demo...... especially helpful reminder for how to eject a flash drive from a Pixel.

very helpful, thank you! I didn't know they made USB-c flash drives!
Yes they do jave them works for phones and other devices. You can also use a dongle to convert the port over sp a regular usb can work.
Great video my question is what to do when your phone does not recognize your USB when you plug it in
Good question, have the same problem
Having the same problem. Use ES File Explorer. It worked earlier. Somehow I turned it off. Not sure how to turn it back on. External flash drive not recognized by any apps now.
Change the charging pot of your phone
Then its broken
Go to settings and look OTG sign and press on
AAaa thank you i needed to transfer some videos and had no idea how to
Thankyou it helps me alot
If anyone is struggling with your flash drive being recognized (pixel wants you to format it) I have a free solution but it takes a little work:
1. Copy the memory stick to your computer.
2. Insert memory stick into pixel and format it.
3. Copy all the data back onto the memory stick from the computer.
4. Now when you insert into the pixel everything on the card will read okay. In my experience using the app memory zone (free) also helps you with view your media and move it around/transfer it easily but not necessary if you don't want to. You can use the factory app "files" instead.
