I want to use usb otg and I am currently on the latest gederom but I can't get any of the devices to work even with a powered hub, could someone advise me as to which rom and which build I should use.
Hey guys,
I've been asking myself whether I am able to use my HTC Desire (which is running Android 4.0) as USB Host Mod (e.g. with an extra-powered external harddrive)? I don't have the right cable yet, but might it be possible? (On FroYo/Gingerbread you needed those special kernels... but there are no ICS compatible as far as i have seen, so is it possible without them?)
Anyone has tried yet?
Thanks in advance.
I'm not sure who has tried on bravo, but its possible

I'm also interested in this.. I think that USB host should be even easier in ICS than in GB as it has native support..

Hi, I was just wondering since development has gone so far on this device has anyone found a way to build "OTG" into a Kernel or Rom for this device?
Has anyone confirmed Otg working in any Jellybean or Kitkat roms. Or does anyone know how to get it to work. I was thinking it had to be enabled or disabled in the kernel ? Anyway any suggestions would help i love being able to use my pen drive it is convient

Works on both JellyBean and KitKat. It is enabled in the kernel by default on official CM ROMs.
For flashdrives and low power devices, it works great. If you want to run an external harddrive though, you need to get a powered hub because I don't think the port can output 500mA or above.
Hi to everyone.
I want to know if there is any ROM above 4.4.2 with MHL working. I want to use the download function of netflix on this phone and 4.4.2+ is needed for this function.
Many Thanks.
Anyone?
