Hi folks,
I'm trying to connect my phone and my guitar amp via usb to otg cable. The app that the amp uses is optimised for android nougat, however it doesn't work with my new honor 7x (it did with my previous phone with android 5.0).
I've tried activating the usb debug in the developer options, but every time I leave that config page, the toggle goes off automatically.
Any ideas? Have you been able to control an external device via USB with an android app?
Thanks in advance!

it works beautifully and way easier than I expected.
connected my otg cable and the phone said usb connector connected (since when is this a thing!?), plugged in the midi-usb adapter to the otg cable and right away it prompted me to open with the software I linked above and another midi software I had installed.
and bam, it was working. I messed around a bit to find the better settings for my keytar, but this thing works. over Bluetooth and with the headphone plug. there's a little bit of lag over Bluetooth but for my uses I wanted it straight to the speaker so i'm using the stereo cable. now I don't need a pc to get sound out of the keytar.
mark this as one more day i'm amazed at what my phone can do.
by the way, it functions as a synth using the software I mentioned above, so I can play harpsichord, organ, piano, etc. and the sound keeps on playing even with the screen off.
happy camper = me.

Looks like you had some luck... Wondering if you can help me?
I am trying to make my Android, Huawei p20 Pro, accept a MIDI signal via USB too.
I have an OTG adapter, and have tested 2 OTG adapters and 2 cords.
All work into my PC (even via an USB type-C to standard USB adaptor )
The issue seems to be that I cannot select the USB in type to be MIDI.
I have also experienced that on another Samsung Galaxy S10
I have tried opening developer settings and changing the setting "Disable USB Audio Routing" ON as per https://help.joytunes.com/en/articles/2636638-troubleshoot-midi-on-your-android-device
I have tried using it with 3 apps that accept MIDI.
Simple Piano by Joy Tunes, FlowKey and USB MIDI Monitor
Any ideas?
Environment
Huawei p20 Pro
Model: CLT-L29
Build: 9.1.0.381 (C782E11R1P11)
EMUI v: 9.1.0
Android v: 9

hello,
I bought this device:
http://www.amazon.com/Inateck-Ethernet-Chromebook-Supported-Aluminum/dp/B012N8KYWU
because it reads nice, I just got it but as i plug it in it only flashes and the tablet only detects is as chargeable device.
I can switch to RNDIS as i wanted to try ethernet, in the developer option but if I do that, the Pixel reboots and reset the option to the prior one.
It even doesn't recognize a USB Stick on that Hub.
Is the hub broken or is there another issue?
Thanks Avalun.
I recently bought this USB Hub / Ethernet adapter and have successfully verified that the USB ports work and the Ethernet port works. I turned off the WiFi while testing the Ethernet port to be 100% sure. I also had USB Debugging enabled when doing all this.

Yes but it doesn't have an ethernetport. Additinally that doesn't deliver to Austria too.
I had the Nexus 6P (with Android 7) and plugging it into the USB worked with my 2011 Camaro (it is not Android Auto, the Head-unit basically will see the phone as a USB Storage device, mount it, index the files, and I could then use my car's controls to search, change tracks, etc).
I broke my phone and turn it in on warranty, and end up getting the Pixel XL as replacement, and upgrade it to Android 8.
Now when I plug it into my car, I get a "No supported media found" message on my car's display. I have tried with and without USB Debugging, going into the the developer options and changing the "Select USB Configuration" to MTP, Audio Source and still the same. I would also have this issue with Samsung phones, and could never get them to work.
I am not sure if this is an issue with Pixel's, or with the Android 8 update, since my Nexus 6P with Android 7 worked fine
you need to use the otg adapter that came with it
So I have to get a standard USB-USB cable to connect the adapter to my car?
I thought this adapter added functionality, so my phone can mount drives, not the other way around? Doesn't make since that something that has worked so well on the past 3 phones (except for Samsung for whatever reason) now no longer works without another piece of hardware. Not what I would call progress
So I ordered another cable and am using my OTG adapter, and it still does not work.
Hello everyone,
I am fairly new to the USB-C world and was wondering why does my Samsung Galaxy S9 only charge when I plug it into my Windows 10 PC using a double sided USB-C (10Gbs) cable.
The phone does not give me an option to change the mode to data transfer.
PS:
The cable being used "USB C Cable, QacQoc USB C to USB C 3.1 Gen 2 Cable supporting 100W Power Delivery, 10Gbps Data Transfer, [email protected] Video Output Thunderbolt 3 Compatible for USB Type-C Devices, 1.2m"
Thanks in advance
enable Developer Mode (go to settings, about phone, then Software Information, then Build Number around 7-10 times (it'll say "X more clicks to enable Developer Mode" (or something like that)). Once Dev Mode is on, you can select "DEveloper Options" in Settings, then Default USB Configuration, and choose "Transferring Files"
Hello *,
with stock rom USB host and power delivery is working so I'm able to connect a passive USB device, like a Flash drives or a mouse, to the Nokia 6.1 USB connector.
But after updating to LineageOS 18.1 this is not working anymore. Connections with active devices (like a PC) are working but not with passive devices, the stay off because of missing power delivery and I cannot active it in "Connected Devices -> USB Settings".
Hence my question, how can I activate the USB power delivery or host mode because I think the USB from the Nokia device do not deliver automatic power to a passive device?!?.
Thank you in advance.!
