Venue 8 7840 Lolipop access to storage with exFAT file system
I've plugged in an external drive with OTG USB cable, the tablet detects it but says that it's blank or use unknown file system.
Is there any way to access data on exFAT formatted storage?

Dell does not care about supporting "flagship" devices past a year. Do what i did, I put my 7840 in a microwave and put it on youtube.. 500k views later.. You're welcome dell!

Looks like this is unknown problem to Dell guys. And what is worse there is no any explicit statement from Dell if 7840 supports exFAT or doesn't.
Anyway, if somebody else need it. The problem could be solved at some degree by using StickyMount app, however it requires root and exfat-fuse.
