USB connection Fenix 6X to Android device

Hello, I tried to connect my Fenix 6X Sapphire to my phones (Samsung S21 Ultra & Samsung S10+) using an OTG cable (this cable works perfectly with USB keys)

When doing so, I can't access the watch.

As I travel a lot (without a laptop) and need to upload maps/ gpx frequently to the watch, I was wondering if you guys had any solution ?

Thanks

The Fenix 5 still has an USB drive mode. But I also don't know how to do it with the newer ones.

That's impossible. The Fenix uses the MTP protocol for USB connection and phones do not support that.

GPX files you can transfer from your phone via Bluetooth, maps are only possible from a computer.
