Thanks for the video. I did as you have shown and my USB stick storage shows up. However, the Chromecast is still storing internally, How do I set the default storage device to my USB stick instead? Thanksl.

I did everything it said, yet kept getting the message "could not migrate to usb drive" I don't understand why this is happening when its a brand new usb thats been formated to chromcaast. When i individualy tried to move the appa it said not enough storage when its completely empty ans the usb is a lot bigger then storage requiered. Is their anything else i can do?

So I got all the parts and everything is up and running. I formatted the new SanDisk thumb drive. I tried to migrate the data from the internal memory to the SanDisk it would not do that. Number one do I have to move everything over or is there a way to add new apps to thumb drive? When I go to install an app it just keeps telling me that there's not enough memory so it's obvious it's not trying to go to the new thumb drive. If someone could help that would be fantastic thank you

I tried it a few months ago, had some different brand of USB-C hub though. The problem was that my USB drive kept disconnecting randomly. I formatted it and everything, the Chromecast was recognizing it, but it simply kept disconnecting and reconnecting about every other minute. I returned the USB-C hub thinking it's not compatible, but now I'm thinking it could've been because of the powerbrick, I used just some powerbrick I had laying around from the old phone. What do you think?

Can I connect SD with this hub WITHOUT buying the 65w adaptor and instead using the one included with the Chromecast to power the hub and the SD card or will be not sufficient to do so?

Does still work? I struggle with the scoped storage bullshit or whatever its called

Oh wow i am mind blown by this 🤯 another video thats going to help so many people!! Great work. Love the vid, easy to follow !

[MarkBrantner]

I have all that and still can't get it to work

[alirezaNikkhah]

You should buy the hub with otg 45 for wire internet as well, ofcuors if you have wifi issues

Thank you very much for the easy to follow instructions and the recommendation on the equipment, setup complete, and it's working great. I was required to format the drive, my system would not let it remain ejectable, and it gave me an error until formatted. Other than that, I had no issues.

I could not migrate apps to the USB drive
Am I doing something wrong?

[mattg]

Tride this but was unable to migrate the storage to put apps on it

I don't think you're correct in your statement. The only thing you expand by adding USB thumbdrive or SDCard or USB HDD/SSD formatted as device storage is the space you have to install apps. I haven't found a way to just add usb drive with my movies/roms etc and them being usable by the Chromecast

This is fire 🔥, bro. Thanks so much for this. New subscriber definitely.

2 questions:
1) can you use a power brick pushing 25 watts(I’ve seen others do it, compatible cable of course) ?

2) your dongle has a micro usb slot, can you just insert a micro usb card into the slot and expand storage ?

[elverde]

when you increase the storage with a sd, does the Chromecast work faster?

[gmmgmmg]

I found that as a removable device you can't write on it. Useless

مرحبا، لدي محرك أقراص محمول به ذاكرة كافية متوفرة حتى الآن وهو جيد جدا. مشكلتي هي أنه عندما أرغب في تثبيت لعبة كبيرة مثل 8 Asphalt وما إلى ذلك، يخبرني أنه ليس لدي ذاكرة كافية ويجب علي حذف التطبيقات. ما لا أفهمه هو سبب عدم تثبيته مباشرة على ذاكرة USB التي تحتوي على مساحة كبيرة من الذاكرة ويحاول فقط التثبيت على الذاكرة الداخلية. في وضع المطور، قمت بوضع تصحيح الأخطاء عبر USB" وما زلت أواجه

نفس المشكلة. أي توصيات من فضلك
