Can someone tell me what OTG is? I know it stands for on the go but what does it do? Thanks.

It allows your phone to connect to a USB memory stick.

I've just purchased my OUYA and similar to my raspberry pi running raspbmc I get no sound over the HDMI out the box. With my raspberry pi I had to add hdmi_drive=2 to the config and then I got sound over HDMI. This I'm guessing is due to my tv requiring a specific mode being enabled or different HDMI driver, to be honest I'm not sure.
Does anyone know if there is a similar setting I can change somewhere on an OUYA box? I'm desperate to get things working and don't want to have to take the box back.
Any help would be much appreciated. I'm sure this will also solve a number of the HDMI sound issues with OUYA dotted over the web.

I'm having the same problem.

I've still got the same problem. I do believe it's similar to what I experience on then Raspberry Pi.
I contacted ouya and they didn't come up with a fix either. If you find a fix before I do please let me know.

Its the HDMI
Im dealing with the same issue. Im running through an HDMI splitter now and it seems to be okay BUT previously I would have to pull and plug my HDMI like 5 times when Id boot the OUYA to get sound out. It seems to be fine lately.
Try different cable, different ports on the TV and boot the ouya and just pull and plug a few times live and see if it works.
Does anyone know if the Amazon fire TV stick has the OTG compatible hardware. I bought a Y OTG cable and it doesn't work . I was going to do a hardware root and see if I could get it working. But if doesn't even have the compatible hardware i'm not going to bother.
No one has been able to get anything working. I don't know whether it has the hardware or not, but I'm kind of doubting it, or it's not enabled at all in the OS.
I have looked at the PCB and it looks like only power is hooked up to the port the rest look grounded so there won't be any USB stuff for it

That is very sneaky of them. I don't understand why they are intentionally crippling their hardware...

thats why i said it looks like. i was going off the pics on gtv. i just looked again and the traces u can see are ground and a data line, pin 2 and pin 5. the fact they where able to get adb to work makes me think the rest are hooked up but u cant see them

any updates on using otg cables with the stick?
if the hardware is ready (data has to be wired, i think?), the host mode would be only software dependent?

It's possible, but it's also pointless.
Connecting to your Fire TV stick is possible without using the cable, just by using adb.
ie: adb connect 192.168.0.103 (ip address of your Fire Stick)

Then you didn't get the point. We are talking about using USB-OTG in this thread.
What should be pointless in thinking about that?!
I think everybody would like to connect a USB key to the AFTVS to watch some movies from that USB key :good:
Hi, i was able to get otg working.....now I'm using a USB wired keyboard and mouse connected to a USB hub.......and was able to use a ps3 controller connected by USB working with a app called liquidsky.....but I need help, does anyone know how to get a wired Xbox 360 controller working with fire stick.........it plugs in and gets power but the middle guide button just keeps blinking and its not recognized by liquidsky........any help would be appreciated.........

HD is formatted in FAT 32 partition
Hi all,
What is the most reliable way to mirror apps such as Hulu to my non-smart TV? Any specific dongle that is good or should I just get a Chromecast? I'd like to hook it up via a wired method but it does not appear possible unless the USB port supports any sort of video output?
Thanks,
Rob
I suggest posting questions in the main thread in order for them to be answered - http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-pad-83/help/t-mobile-lg-g-pad-x-8-0-v521wg-info-t3400620/
I have a Chromecast and that is definitely reliable as long as your Wi-Fi is. I'm not sure if you can mirror using microUSB/full USB
Hi there!
I've got NuAns NEO a couple of months ago. I tried to pair it with NexDock station via adapters, but it didn't work. Then I was googling and tring to find information in Internet about this gadget and Continuum feature. On Japanese sites I found something like it but works only via Miracast stick called ScreenBeamMini. It's weird...
Other threads I've seen there is not additional information about that. So, is there anyone who can help me?
Many thanks
And screen mirroring works?
Nice device

I was using a Q601 for a while. Nice device too. But too many experiments left it soft bricked for the moment...
Even though this device has a USB C port Wired continuum did not work by default. Continuum via screen cast/screen beam device works though .
@ABylinin
I think there are some cabs or other ways to enable continuum wired for the SD617. Maybe it has been done already some where here on the forums. If you figure out how or find the answer to enable this on the Snapdragon 617 let us know.
Microsoft Wireless Adapter it works.

So, yes but it's not a desired solution.
@nate0
My research finished, and I found no way to solve this problem. One of the reasons is USB 2.0 with USB-C form factor that doesn't support DisplayPort over ALT Mode, which works only over USB 3.0 and later.
