Default Transferring files to Tablet via USB Cable Looses Original Time & Dates of Files

You can try MyPhoneExplorer [1] which is an Android/Windows combo which
can use an USB or WiFi connection.

Since it's a Samsung tablet, you could also use Samsung's 'Kies 3'
software, but all references to that seems to have vanished from the
Samsung site, in favour of the Smart Switch software. The Smart Switch
page [2] still mentions 'Kies', but the 'LEARN MORE' link [3] redirects
back to the Smart Switch page! Sigh!

I don't know if any of these preserve timestamps when copying, but
it's worth a try. My advice is to start with MyPhoneExplorer.

Hi, I ordered a USB gender changer from Amazon. I heard from a ham radio
friend of mine that he was able to access a USB flash drive using his tablet
with the proper cable. That should solve my problem.

Whether it does or not, come on back to post the result. We're curious.


Hi Vanguard, UPDATE:

I received the USB gender changer. I connected an 8G (FAT32) USB flash
drive, with a few text files on it, to my Samsung Galaxy Tab A
model SM-T280 tablet. Unfortunately, it was NOT detected by "File Manager+"
or "X-plore". I tried "My Files" (came with tablet) and was unable to "see"
the USB flash drive.

I checked the USB gender changer on my laptop using a USB
cable with male connectors on both ends. There is NOTHING wrong
with the gender changer.

I need to contact my ham radio friend on the air to find out what AP he
was using. Note: I have one solution to preserving the file's time & dates
when I transfer files to that "stuck" micro SD card, but it isn't the best
solution.

If I find out what AP he (ham friend) used, I will download it and report
back here with another "update".

Again Thanks to everyone, John
