^ I agree, the OP is mad. 4.0.2 has USB host working perfectly.

Perfectly is a big word.
There are dozens of users in other threads complaining that OTG doesn't work.
I tryed my logitech mouse and my pen drive and it does not work and I'm using the genuine Samsung cable.
I need to try this tonite to decide who's mad
But I heard 4.0.3 has otg support including USB stick using stick mount

Read somewhere the pen drive must be a 'green' drive (as in power saving). Can't for the life of me find where I read it, though
Has to be the most useless add-on IMO

I have dozens of pen drive no one works.
I'm thinking that people who says that USB Host works well on 4.0.2 are using modded kernel.
Read somewhere that Stickmount (on the Market) was required to make usb storage work.
My USB OTG cable and MicroSD card reader have yet to come in so I have yet to confirm thus myself.

4.0.3 + StickMount + cheapy cable + any old USB stick or uSD card reader I can find == WIN on my GN.
Can't comment on 4.0.2.

Yes, USB OTG works on 4.0.2 (ICL53F), try a USB mouse or keyboard. But there is a problem with external (pen) drives as the phone won't mount them. So although USB OTG "works" you can't use it with pen drives.
Your phone needs to be rooted and if it is, get "StickMount" from chainfire from the market. That will solve that problem.
Do you have to have a new ROM or can you just run Stickmount on the stock but rooted phone?

Powered off the phone, connected the Logitech Unifying receiver, booted the phone.
Works both mouse and keyboard at the same time.
Now we need to wait for pen drive support.
you need stickmount and you need to have root, then pendrives should work
as an aside, i'm completely stock 4.0.2 on gsm, and my ps3 controller totally works in shadowgun now!

same here with my logitech pc pad.
Is it my cable?
I updated to 4.0.2 and I have a USB Host cable (http://www.play.com/Mobiles/Mobile/4-/24267949/-/Product.html). I tried plugging in a mouse to test, but nothing happens.
What am I suppose to see? a pointer?
Also tried 2 thumb drives with stickmount, but nothing detected.
Trying to work out if it's the cable or the things I'm testing are not compatible.
Thanks

Problem was my cable, I ordered a genuine one from Amazon and arrived today. Just tested and worked straight away, no reboots. Here's the link http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004ULZD7U
Hi to all, after a long search in XDA Forums i didn't find any answers to my problem...
I have Bell note 2 running CM 10.1, everything running smooth except of the fact that when I insert OTG adapter the phone freeze's, even if there no flash drive in it.
i thought that it maybe the adapter it self but it working just fine on my Xoom tablet...
please help
thank's in advance!
Been asked this... I don't have the Galaxy tab 3 so I am not familiar with the ports. I assume it has a USB port, but don't know if you could actually use it to connect to a wired Ethernet with it using an adapter.
Anyone know?
Seems they replaced all their field tech notebooks units with these, but forgot they need to do hard wired Ethernet testing using it.

I"m also trying to figure out whether or not this can be done? Seems like it could be really useful for network testing and management in an environment where WiFi is not present or working correctly. My tablet is much easier to carry around than my laptop
Anyone had any luck with this?
I do not believe that you can connect it to ethernet because there is only a port for a charging cable aka a universal Android charging port no USB port.

You use that port for data transfer though.

Hello there! I came here hoping to find some good answers. This account may be new, but I am definitely familiar with this site and what it can offer. So hello and thanks in advance
So recently I purchased the Nexus 7 2013, rooted it, and all the good stuff. I have the older Nexus 7 as well, and still a wonderful device. The issue I am having with this new Nexus 7 is the OTG support is quite strange. With the older Nexus 7, I would plug in my OTG cable, attach my device(s) and it would work on the fly every time. This new nexus 7 is a different story..
While I can get OTG to work, this is what I have to do. If I attach the OTG cable with a device while it is on, nothing happens. I have used the OTG Troubleshooter app correctly, and I get this message..
Warning: Expected 0, but found 1 hubs. Did you disconnect your OTG?

Yet if I attach the OTG Cable and my device while the Nexus 7 is turned off, then turn it on, everything works as it should, StickMount detects and mounts the drive properly and all is dandy, but if I remove the OTG and attach again, I would have to reboot in order to use it. I also cannot access OTG devices in recovery, only when I fully boot the Android OS.
Any help on this would be appreciated. If you are wondering, I am using the ElementalX Kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2389022) 1.8 on Android 4.3 (even had the same issues when using 4.4, but worse), but even before I installed this Kernel, I had the exact same issue. I have a feeling I just have a wonky device unlike others, but I'd like to see if I can get some answers here anyway. Thank you for your time.
Sorry for noob question.
I got my new phone yesterday, and with new type C cable, I cannot connect my phone to laptop.. How can I root without having the cable USB-A to USB-C cable.
Please suggest me.. I want to root and install custom ROM.
TIA.
