Thanks for this, but is there no support for mounting a USB Flash Drive via OTG in this version of TWRP? I can't see the option in the Mount menu and nothing happens when I plug in my flash drive. I have an N5110. I've tried plugging it in while in TWRP and rebooting to recovery while the drive is plugged in but it makes no difference.

I am also having no luck getting my USB OTG dongle micro SD card reader to work. Whats funny is even after flashing older versions of TWRP that worked previously are no longer picking it up either. Im going to order a couple new micro SD cards to make sure it isn't the card but it works in my other devices. Maybe I just finally wore these poor tablets out..lol.

MicroSD File System should be FAT32 or EXT4

This method is easier than ODIN:

1. Download "twrp-2.8.7.0-n5100.img" and place it in the root of the sdcard (internal). I renamed it to "twrp.img".
2. Run the following two commands in the terminal emulator app:

Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6
i never knew i could do this simple ..thanks mate
