does optimus g supports otg ?
Sent from my LG-E975 using xda app-developers app
according to websites I've read it does.
but a while back before I upgraded to the OG, i bought a generic OTG cable for my HOX, it worked there, but when I tried it on my friend's OG it didn't work on the mice ans flash drives we tried.
i guess we'll have to wait for the others here to chip in their experiences.
or you could go try one in a local store and see if it works.

There are about 4 or 5 threads about usb otg. So please use google before opening new threads.
Btw. no its not working. Usb otg is kernel related, so we must wait untill anyone of the devs implement it.
You can use sixaxis app with ps3 controller, that works.

I just purchased for my S3 the OTG cable in the amazon store labeled: "SANOXY Micro USB Host Mode OTG Cable Flash Drive SD T-Flash Card Adapter FOR Samsung GT-i9100 i9100 Galaxy S II 2 GT-N7000 Galaxy Note" (sorry new users can't post links)
I got it so I could hook up my PS3 controller to play emulator games (via John NES lite and GENPlusDroid) on my unrooted verizon S3. If I purchase a usb splitter, would I be able to use two controllers for two player games?

You should be able too I also just purchased 3 of them. But I think you have to be rooted for the cable to work anyways. Also downloads stick mount by chainfire for free from the play store. It will help when using the cable for mass storage devices.

The s3 already supports flash drives without stickmount or root. As for the two ps3 remotes, I have tried to do this but they both register the buttons for one controller. This might be written into ICS unless you buy the yoypad I think. I tried the otg to a USB hub with two controllers with no luck, also two controllers with sixaxis app no luck, also one with six axis app and one with USB otg and still both register for one controller. The USB hub did support keyboard and mouse at the same time though so its got to be the way ICS is programmed for only one game controller.

Verizon phones can't be easily rooted, so that guide doesn't help.
Guys, I bought a USB OTG cable today. Nothing special, but my GNexus doesn't want to work with me. No matter what I connect - USB mouse, keyboard, flash drive [w/ StickMount by Chainfire] - Nexus doesn't recognize it. Tried wiping and reflashing my ROM (CM10, today's nightly) but it doesn't help. I use Air Kernel, but flashing franco.kernel or using the stock one doesn't work too. It looks like there's no power in Nexus' micro socket. However, when I connect a USB hub with external power source Nexus starts charging. Any ideas?
Best,

You say that when you connect the Nexus to a powered USB hub, it starts to charge. Does that mean you have the USB-OTG cable hooked to the Nexus, then some sort of gender changing adapter to hook it to the USB hub? What happens if you plug the flash drive into the USB hub while the Nexus is "charging"? Does the Nexus continue to charge and you get access to the flash drive???

I just have a USB hub with a socket for power adaptor - it's nothing special. However, when and I connect anything to my hub while Nexus is "charging" it still doesn't recognize this device. I'm outta ideas.

Darn. I was hoping you had somehow magically discovered that the phone can charge itself while still being in USB Host Mode. That'd be absolutely fantastic!
Try it on stock JB, CM10 isn't even alpha. Plus, make sure any custom kernels you plan on trying support it.

I've tried CM9 stable a few moments ago - doesn't work.
Your cable is probably defective. I just bought mine, works great, but in reading reviews many people reported defective cables.

Just bought the second one - still doesn't work. Why?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1092493.html
Check out that link to see a potential cable problem.
The roms [cm9] and kernel [stock] should work for you.
Is the cable you are buying specifically stating usb otg on the package? If not, buying 2 cables from the same store of the same type won't change anything.
This is what works for mr.

The second one is different - I'n sure it's not the cable problem. Something with my software? I doubt it. Hardware problem?

I seem to get quite a bit of opposition to this but as you'll see there are links included..one from Samsung and if you look in the manual that came with phone, it also talks about the OEM chargers. Try disabling NFC then try yo charge. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1841584

Do you know someone else with a Galaxy Nexus, to test the cables and ensure they do actually work?

It was suggested 2x in the thread to go completely stock [rom + kernel].
You stated trying CM10 and CM 9, as well as stock kernel, but you never say if you tested stock/stock.
Mkay, I'll try the stock JB tomorrow.

Accidentally thanked you.
What I'm trying to say is, AFAIK stock kernel doesn't support OTG. So try going stock then flashing a kernel.

i was wondering if i can connect my galaxy note 10.1 to my samsung Smart hdtv tv via Mhl and use usb otg to connect controllers so i can play games on my hdtv with the controllers
did anyone do that before?
Im pretty sure you can use a usbhub or anything like that, connect the MHL and the controller to the MHL and it should work but Im not sure.

Can you elaborate a bit?
Don't the usb otg adapters / hubs connect to the same port as the hdmi adapter would ? And thus far l haven't been able to find nether a hdmi adapter with an usb otg port, nor a usb hub / adapter with hdmi..
Anyone?

Hm thats right, when connecting the OTG it will only recognize it as USB and when connecting the MHL it will only recognize it as MHL.

There is a multimedia dock coming out soon for the s3 that will allow otg and hdmi plug to put your cable into.
There is already one for the note 2 but it doesn't work for the s3 at least that's what the reviews say and also said might work after an update from samsung.

You can always use Bluetooth mouse and keyboard or controller with hdmi. Or you could do allshare cast hub for widi with usb otg devices. It does artifact with more intense games though.

Wow I hope I can get a dock like that for my S3 and/or note 10.1
Thanks for that video.
The note 10.1 is the same internals as the note 2 and s3 so I don't see why one built for the tablet plug wouldn't be possible, I doubt this would work if you tried to connect via usb otg adapter for the 10.1. Hopefully they release one!

Why not use the six access controller app which allows you to tether ps3 controllers wirelessly?
It might also be possible to do similar with xbmc which released in beta today but I've not tested that.

Well what about connecting a usb drive etc. Or use other controllers. For that matter I for one might need to use a wireless mouse... really hope they launch a media dock or something similar.

I already posted this somewhere... I've a Energizer MHL adapter that works very well, but I had another OEM that worked too, basically all MHL adapter with 5 pins will work.
Hey all,
Just got my cheapo slimport in the mail from China. Not working... I know I have all the wires hooked up correctly and a compatible TV cuz I use mhl on my HTC one.
Does anyone know if there are issues with custom ROMs and the slimport hookup ? This is the only thing I can think of before accepting the cable is busted and shipping back
