My External HDD (Passport 2Tb) works but usb stick is not recognized

using it on my laptop, with ubuntu 18.04 , I've formatted it to FAT, and the tablet still not recognizing it...
*waves at fellow [K]Ubuntu user!*

If the stick failed in another device, we'd have a clear idea of what's wrong--the stick. But since that's not the case, I'm not sure what else to suggest. Maybe trying it in another Android device? Just to see what happens. The problem could be with the tablet.
