I have an OTG cable and the only thing I can use it for is my wireless keyboard. It does not detect any of my thumb drives or external HD.
I'm on Haschode's 3.0 ICS. Was wondering if newer jellybean roms were more usb friendly.
Are you using a powered hub?

Yes, I understand that the Kindle Fire may not be able to handle power consuming USB peripherals. I have a powered USB 2.0 Hub called the "Pluggable"

Well, the extent of my KF USB OTG knowledge is...It needs a powered hub. Even then, it's still hit and miss.
Maybe you start a thread asking what devices others have had success with in regards to OTG on the KF.

My phone is Xperia S .50 kernel
Did you try a different tv?

I'll probably do,but the point is to use my TV
I had this exact same problem, after I bought an HDMI to DVI connector to try and hook up the phone to a spare monitor, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2060773
still not sure what the issue is
in service menu (test- tv out- sttings) try set resolution to SD ...
It's quite strange,but the issue actually involves the cable.With the 1.4m cable I bought,the thing worked on a new TV at the store,bot not on my '07 Daewoo(see above).Later I've bought a simple tiny microHDMI->HDMI adapter for 2$,and it worked flawlessly,except for it's quite quirky and sometimes disconnects if you move it around.Anyway,I have no idea what it is.
Can you get more compact ones i find them to bulky and annoying to use, is there one you can get that is just one lead with small micro usb port for the power?
I use this one: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/190708255661
I think it's pretty compact, although we might have different definitions.

Yes that does look better having the power and micro usb coming from the same lead
I agree, a very nice design, that I didn't know of.
Thank you for this.
So with this cable I can connect the Note to a tv with HDMI ?

Yep !
Okay. I was looking on the internet, and I found this tutorial: https://sites.google.com/site/sonicboomworld/my-projects/simple-otg-cable-video. I was wondering, Can this work on the kindle fire? I also want to ask this because I want to connect my Arduino Uno r3 (Requires 7-16 volts dc) to my kindle fire. Thanks. I am using this tutorial: http://www.shapeshifter.se/2009/07/07/diy-female-female-usb-adapter/ to make the female to female usb.

and got the error
The hub is lighted, so I know it is working, but stickmount and USB helper say there is no USB to mount. I know this otg cable works because I tried it on my dad's DROID RAZR. Any help?

I just find out that is possible to connect mouse, but then you have to sacrify usb charger slot. Is there any usb connector exist around in market that does have exactly the same slot like original usb conector, to -> mouse slot, but plus aditional slot for charger?

Like this but with double slot and without wires
Update
So basically I found the solution, just buy bluetooth mouse and keyboard so that slot goes for charger
I use this, works perfect also quick charge
In aliexpress -> Ugreen HUB USB C HUB USB 3 0
For a completely different experience, also get a DEX CABLE and turn any big HD screen into an Android operating system

Looking to use my old 5T as an emby server with an external hard drive, it was stock till like 30 min ago, as my research points that the stock kernel prevents them to have USB Storage + charging at the same time. Currently looking for a good ROM + Kernel to be able to this.
To summarize, I need to use a USB C Hub 7 in 1 (I only really need 1 USB A + Charging), this is not working with the phone as stock (not sure if it will be working once I add another ROM + Kernel)
For reference, the hub works with my 7T and Lenovo X1 as intended. It works on the 5T only either charging the phone, or using the storage, not both.
