Not that I know of.  I've got one of these:

	http://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/toshiba-16-gb-duo-2-in-1-usb-flash-drive-toduo16grd?searchTerm=%20Toshiba%2016GB%20Duo%202%20in%201%20USB%20Flash%20Drive

and I can just plug it into my linux laptop, copy files onto it, then plug the other end
into my Samsung phone to copy them off.  Works a treat.

The phone runs Android 4.4.2.

I'm just running vfat on it though I assume it could have ext on it.
