Great video, I learned several things I wasn't aware of. Specifically using the remote ADB app with localhost fills my need to have a local shell. Additionally, your steps are thorough and not excessive. Thanks again.
Great stuff! I'd love to know how you found out that the additional user was preventing moving data to the usb drive. That alone saved hours of head scratching across the community.
Incredible video TROY. Thanks for sharing. Love the way you do your videos. Always so thorough. Keep the content coming. Hope you have an incredible night. Much love and RESPECT
Following the adb commands allowed my file explorer to just recognise the usb drive as internal storage...now I have a device with over 30gb storage which is plenty of space as I only run minimal apps on it. Great tips as always. Thankyou.
I Have the SanDisk 256 gb storage never had issues only issue using the external storage is doesn't allow you to update the Android Ststem Webview app easy fix you just need to turn off the force allow the apps on external in the developer option settings section it's the 2nd one from the bottom than you can update the app than just have to remember to turn the force allow apps on external back on .
Great video, very good straight forward made tutorial. I have to poit out that 256GB usb stick caused problem playing recorded tv programs. Everything else work flawlessly.
Troy thank you brother had been trying to figure this out couldn’t move apps not only did you help me get this fixed it also fixed issue on the Tivimate app for changing the recordings folder to usb it now lets me change folder thank you!! You’re the best!!!!
Great video Troy, 3 questions in one .. is there a way to use an external drive larger than 32GB? (or is there a size limitation?) If it is possible to connect larger than 32GB I'm guessing the process is identical?
@dennyhiett6271 i did eventually and got the emulators to work but we're too slow for me, so I decided to scrap the whole thing and stick to my PS5 and my PC if I want to play classic games thanks for your concern buddy
@@josuedejesus21 thanks so much for your response. I was wondering if i format it to internal storage would that help with storage with recording from tivimate?
Hi went to my phone guy and tech it wouldnt recognise the storage stick never showed up even after enabling usb on developer options any ideas thanks Reg Uk
Hello, this is usually due to having your transition settings set to off in Developer options. Go into Settings / Developer Options and change all of them to .5 and that should fix the problem.
Love your videos, just wondering if you can do a video on how to add a Nas to an android box like NVIDIA Shield for recording and to move data from nas to android box. Thanks!
Hmmm I just tried this and for whatever reason after the migrating seemed to be going on, it eventually went back to the previous screen where you select to migrate and then when I select it again i get the same error that it couldn't migrate :( Any idea what to try now?
I apologize for the off topic post here. I know you talk with Tech Doc and am curious to know if there has been any movement on a work around after Amazons update stopped Tech Docs Cache Cleaner and App Killer. Thanks again for all the great work you do. Love Downloader.
Hello, don't think there has been a solution as the local ADB is not completely disabled. TROYPOINT is no longer recommending Fire TV products. There are too many better Android TV/Google TV alternatives where we don't need to play their games.
For me usb option is not at all shows after enabling usb debugging mode and the force write option.. my PD is fat32 format. Indicator light is blinking but no usb detected in Chromecast
Hi I have got this working to an extent. However when I turn off USB debugging and restart. The drive isn't recognised. Only when I unplug the power and reconnect it. Then it connects back up. I have followed the instructions so can't understand why I'm having this problem. Anyone else had this issue?
I just successfully applied your method to a Sony Bravia Android TV. In my menu, there wasn’t a USB debug option, only ADB Debug. I toggled it and it seemed to do the trick. Appreciate the effort you put into these videos!
Does anyone have any idea why I can't see no content (videos or pictures) uploaded on my formatted USB via Chromecast Google TV, and connected as it should be? I have a 128 GB USB, but even a smaller one (30 GB) doesn't work.
Tried this, my chromecast is connected via ethernet using the official Google adaptor, but the otg cable doesn't carry a hard wired ethernet signal. I won't give up a good Internet speed to get extra storage, shame though..
Previously followed this guide for a 32gb usb drive...worked a treat, adter the adb commands. Just done another Chromecast this time with a 64gb drive again once the adb commands were issued worked perfectly. This is a great guide 👍🏻👍🏻
Yes, but doesn't work as good as Android TV/Google TV as we can't toggle the button that forces apps to external in dev options. This means that most apps can't be moved over to the USB drive unless developer of app declares support for it which most don't. But, anything that is sideloaded can be moved. Here are our guides for this on Firestick - troypoint.com/expand-fire-tv-stick-4k-internal-storage/
How but having Internet cable in same time? You didn't think about that do you? And now is too late you will say new device coming and we don't need all this
Hubs with these are real trial and error. Ethernet is more stable and faster than wifi ......Google API settings are what I want to go away. I don't have access to my folders for emulators.@@troypoint

Any chance you could come up with a solution to emulators not running right on ccgtv . All I get is the old ( you don't have an app that can do this )
Great video, I learned several things I wasn't aware of. Specifically using the remote ADB app with localhost fills my need to have a local shell. Additionally, your steps are thorough and not excessive. Thanks again.

Great video and very informative as always thanks mate 👍
Great video! I am using MateTV to watch iptv. I am wondering, is it posible to recort tv program on that external USB stick?
Following the adb commands allowed my file explorer to just recognise the usb drive as internal storage...now I have a device with over 30gb storage which is plenty of space as I only run minimal apps on it. Great tips as always. Thankyou.
So this don't work for apps in Google Play?
I Have the SanDisk 256 gb storage never had issues only issue using the external storage is doesn't allow you to update the Android Ststem Webview app easy fix you just need to turn off the force allow the apps on external in the developer option settings section it's the 2nd one from the bottom than you can update the app than just have to remember to turn the force allow apps on external back on .
when purchasing the otg cable there is 2 choices, 18w and 60w, does it matter which one to choose?
Hello, the one that I'm linking directly to is the 18W cable and that's the one I'm using in the video.
Great video, very good straight forward made tutorial. I have to poit out that 256GB usb stick caused problem playing recorded tv programs. Everything else work flawlessly.
Troy thank you brother had been trying to figure this out couldn’t move apps not only did you help me get this fixed it also fixed issue on the Tivimate app for changing the recordings folder to usb it now lets me change folder thank you!! You’re the best!!!!
Great video Troy, 3 questions in one .. is there a way to use an external drive larger than 32GB? (or is there a size limitation?) If it is possible to connect larger than 32GB I'm guessing the process is identical?
Can I use this Adoptable Storage for recording programs with TiviMate? I seem to be having permissions issues when trying to do that.
amazing guidance buddy works like a charm.. YOU ROCK!!
Do files also install into your external storage after doing all this, or is it just apps that can be moved here
Did you get an answer?
@dennyhiett6271 i did eventually and got the emulators to work but we're too slow for me, so I decided to scrap the whole thing and stick to my PS5 and my PC if I want to play classic games thanks for your concern buddy
@@josuedejesus21 thanks so much for your response. I was wondering if i format it to internal storage would that help with storage with recording from tivimate?
@dennyhiett6271 No problem 😊 but I already given up the whole idea, which is why I stuck using my Playstation and PC instead
@@josuedejesus21 i understand
Hi went to my phone guy and tech it wouldnt recognise the storage stick never showed up even after enabling usb on developer options any ideas thanks Reg Uk
Are these the same required steps to use the USB storage device only to record tv programs?
Did you find an answer
@ no I did not
How do you move the cursor around? I cant clickmon any of the troybox links because the Chromecast cursor only goes from corner to corner.
Hello, this is usually due to having your transition settings set to off in Developer options. Go into Settings / Developer Options and change all of them to .5 and that should fix the problem.
so you use the included power brick no need to replace?
Correct.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This was so well explained, I would never have been able to figure it out on my own. You are truly a life saver!!!
How to use a keyboard dangle together with the usb drive?
Love your videos, just wondering if you can do a video on how to add a Nas to an android box like NVIDIA Shield for recording and to move data from nas to android box. Thanks!
What are the best security settings for the chrome cast google tv?
Can I use this method to download large storage games such as Asphalt 9?
Can you record videos or movies using this process?
Hmmm I just tried this and for whatever reason after the migrating seemed to be going on, it eventually went back to the previous screen where you select to migrate and then when I select it again i get the same error that it couldn't migrate :( Any idea what to try now?
Only video that helped ✌️✌️
I wanna what other apps you've put it on it
Is it possible for asphalt 8 to be on pendrive because sometimes some apps only move the apk not the data file or obb file
can i use the same otg cable for onn tv box?
No, but you will find a link to that in the video description. You need a micro usb otg cable for the Onn box.

I couldn't get this to work since installing the march security updates 😔
Trying to install Elementum on my chromecast 4k. When i install from zip file i get an error message? Any way to fix this?
Any chance you've tested this with a webcam? I've been looking for an option cheaper than Nvidia shield for living room video calls.
I have did this back when I first got mine 2 years ago but didn't have to do all the did just use developer settings allow USB storage that's it
Just Amazing TUTORIAL. Thanks so much bro.
Really helpful 👏🏻 thanks very much 👍🏻
Can I use the same method on my firestick?
Very helpful!! Thank you so much.
For me usb option is not at all shows after enabling usb debugging mode and the force write option.. my PD is fat32 format.
Indicator light is blinking but no usb detected in Chromecast
Mate you are a legend. Thanks for this
hi I plugged in external storage and it says that the storage is corruppted and I cannot access the drive. Is there a fix for this?
Try formatting the drive - troypoint.com/usb-fat32-format/
Great video and everything works perfectly. Thanks
Is there an option that you know of that includes 1 gb Ethernet
I’ve followed all steps and even formatted my usb to Fat32 but it still does not pick up on my Chromecast
Does this work for apps in Google Play?
Hi I have got this working to an extent. However when I turn off USB debugging and restart. The drive isn't recognised. Only when I unplug the power and reconnect it. Then it connects back up. I have followed the instructions so can't understand why I'm having this problem. Anyone else had this issue?
I’m stuck at the Remote ADB Shell screen. After entering localhost and 5555, I get a “connection failed” error.
Hello, make sure that you have turned on Dev options and also enabled USB debugging.
I just successfully applied your method to a Sony Bravia Android TV. In my menu, there wasn’t a USB debug option, only ADB Debug. I toggled it and it seemed to do the trick. Appreciate the effort you put into these videos!

How the hell do u get a cursor?
Bluetooth mouse... Boom💥
You're such a lifesaver thx you much
Previously followed this guide for a 32gb usb drive...worked a treat, adter the adb commands.
Just done another Chromecast this time with a 64gb drive again once the adb commands were issued worked perfectly. This is a great guide 👍🏻👍🏻
my chromecast 3rd gen says Unknown command: remove. Any idea why this is happening? I was enjoying Your presentation, until now, lol.
Can we do this with fire stick
Yes, but doesn't work as good as Android TV/Google TV as we can't toggle the button that forces apps to external in dev options. This means that most apps can't be moved over to the USB drive unless developer of app declares support for it which most don't. But, anything that is sideloaded can be moved. Here are our guides for this on Firestick - troypoint.com/expand-fire-tv-stick-4k-internal-storage/
I have tried 2 different flash drives. Chromecast will not recognize either
Hello, as my video states, format at FAT32 via guide linked in video description.
Localhost connection failed what do I do?
Make sure USB debugging is turned on in developer options.
I already had it enabled and it still didn't work so I tried to disabling and enabling again and that didn't work either
How but having Internet cable in same time? You didn't think about that do you? And now is too late you will say new device coming and we don't need all this
I have no clue what you are asking??
Hubs with these are real trial and error. Ethernet is more stable and faster than wifi ......Google API settings are what I want to go away. I don't have access to my folders for emulators.@@troypoint
Remote adb: key pair generation failed...hmm
Did you turn on debugging in developer options? Usually that's reason for this error.
@@troypoint yes
Cable name plz
Everything is linked in the video description.
With 5555 dosent work. Thank s !
If running a VPN turn it off when you do this. 5555 does work.
Same situation. Did you find a way to make it work?
Ohhh Good Ole days ..old ass Chromecast TV dongle
Stupid google. Like google map update, what are these programmer doing? fixing issues makes more issues. I can predict that chatgpt beat stupid Bard.
😒 I just want more storage nothing else...
Internal or Removable or external or Shared and any combination
😁😁😁👍👍👍
File explorer has storage
Why bother expanding A CHROMECAST.
Why not just buy a BETTER streaming device, to begin with ?!
(There are MANY)
Agree with you but people don't realize this until they have already purchased.
$20 onn box in USA can do this. Lots of folks buy cheap and find out later. Chromecast is $30 in USA
Chromecasts are inexpensive and I have not really run into any problems with any of mine. What are these better streaming devices?
Yes, and here's my video for that as well - th-cam.com/video/mPgg-ey3o70/w-d-xo.html
