Maybe, there is a chance. I've recently installed USB Host Controller app and got the messages in the screenshots below.
The firmware is rooted stock Gingerbread 2.3.4 with some un-Blur modifications. Unfortunately I dont have a USB host port cable yet to run a complete test on this.

I tested here with me, and it did not work! : (
someone already succeeded in this?
I use the 2.3.7 rom CM7 tezet!

Hey guys,
After viewing this post in the trouble shooting section in our forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2157352...tys0n have discovered that we have a usb hub so theoretically we only need a custom kernel and drivers...and we can build one for our devices right??
For all devs I hope some help cz this is a very important step forward if we could do it and am ready to help from testing to develping with you
and thank you

It won't work. Although the hub is present, the board doesn't provide the usb with enough power fot otg to work.
To get otg working, you will have to edit vbus and voltage values. It is very dangerous as it can fry your usb and/or the entire SoC.
So i would recommend only experienced members to do it.!

why gona to kerrnel ? i have just searched 1 minute and find this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.shajul.usbotg&hl=fr
and you can see in menu app are compatible with our phone just feed if worked i can't test i dont have mini usb hub

Let's hope someone with a otg cable can try it out. I just relalised that my old cable is broken
External power will be needen then if board can't provide it.

I8190 is built on ST-Ericsson NovaThor U8420. Hardware is present, but probably samsung never cared to use it.

Samsung gives features according to the price range of the device! Look at Galaxy Ace 2 and SGS Advance. Bith devices have same board, but ace is clocked at 800 mhz while ace is at 1 ghz.

But if the hardware exist...that leave us with the software,will it will be hard but we may be able to unlock it .Right?

USB OTG supporting
USB OTG is a really good function. I would be great if SG S3 mini will support it. I think, a problem isn´t in a hardware, but in a software and a good custom kernell solve this problem. I hope, someone help us with this as soon as possible. Please, please, please .......

yes and finally its here...check it out

A little traduction will be:
copy the modules into /system/lib/modules with rootbrowser or similar browser
install USB OTG Helper from the Playstore
just connect the usb with OTG at the phone and click the button "Mount" in the app
and you will have your USB mounted at /storage/UsbOtgDrives/drive_1 !!!
I have the custom ROM AOKP 4.2.2 from maclaw
try with another ROM's or stock ROM and tell me if works fine =D

it will work with stock rom?

Atrix 4G Leaked ICS with Kernel 3.1.10

Android 4.0.4 ICS is working great on my Atrix 4G.
I flashed the official AT&T ICS for Atrix and then flashed the last Kernel build by Krystianp (2013-12-22 build)
There are two versions of kernel, I've used the version with stock voltages - link.
The things I did:
1 - Flash ICS_Atrix_leak_flashable
2 - Flash kernel (kernel-2013_12_22_atrics)
3 - Flash Multitouch-Homefix
4 - Flash Ramfix
5 - Install SETCPU
*Flash using CWM (wipe cache, data, dalvik, system)
5 - After boot, you need to get root access, use this
6 - You can remove FastDormency.apk from system/app, it give me best battery life.
7- WI-FI theter works, but you need to disable the entitlement check with Sqlite Editor in the systems->settings.db and set it to 0 from 1 and reboot.
I put the files here >> DOWNLOAD
In this zip you'll find all needed files! (ROM, Radio 37P, Ramfix, Kernel, Multitouch-Homefix, files to root(step 5)...)
For me everything works, camera, flash, fingerprint... It's really smooth!
I'm not the dev of this ROM, I'm just saying what I did.
Thanks for Devs Krystianp, Epinter, upndwn4par and others.

but i cant find the proper RAMFIX and i dont know if this http://d-h.st/HUf is the right ICS_Atrix_leak_flashable, its dated 2012-10-09

i'll wait for someone to put the files here, i dont want to brick my phone because of someone like u, thanks for nothing

You might be in for quite a wait. People don't usually like people who expect others to do the work for them. Especially on a forum dedicated to exploring and developing on your own such as this one. Also, it is quite difficult to completely brick the phone. Most caveats are recoverable one way or another.

Guys, xda is no place for fighting, but also no place to demand something (as you pay for nothing)

hmm, you do realize that this would be against the rules, right?
Maybe you really should re-read the RULES before giving further advice...

For the info.Atrics2.0 with latest kernel usb otg works fully. Just tried the usb diagnostics by chainfire, which made some kind of fix and now usb otg cable works with simple Y cable connected to charger.Which means one can use atrix as a HD player without having to use any kind of dock.

I've got a half dead digitizer, so I can't really go digging into the camera (settings are more on the middle to upper corner of the screen, and that's where my digitizer is dead). OTG is something I haven't done yet just b/c I still need to build myself the cable or buy a cable to get that working. the kernel revision you said you have does seem to be the latest one, I haven't seen a new one get released since the 22nd. did you see the post above yours from lightlord about what he did to get OTG to work? not sure if that's what needs to be done all the time, but I'd say that's a good place to start.

Nope, camera app is pretty basic. Also, for otg, the atrix won't give power to the usb, you need a hub with external power supply for it to work. On the hd dock I can confirm tht otg works flawessly (ps2 controller on adapter and keyboard/mouse

That camera requires android 4.4, not 4.0.4. And besides that, it's a crap of a camera app.

[Q] nexus 4- otg problem , please help me !.

hey, i have a nexus 4 with android 5 and just flushed the kernel defcon-96u-unleashed-AOSP_mako.zip [which you can find here http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex...nel-ultimate-unleashed-kernel-series-t2845768 ] .
this kernel supports otg, and it comes with a "synapse" application [there i made a "v" over the otg enable option].
iv'e got a small micro usb external memory storage of 32 gb flat32 , and when i insert it to the nexus nothing happends.
i guess as you can all see im really new with this ^^...
please help me! how can i fix it?

Should be a y with an external power source but you should really ask this in the thread for the kernel

as said in the previous reply to your question nexus 4 requires Y otg cable. the reason is that nexus 4 hardware does not support powering devices via usb so you need a y cable to power your usb externally

You just need to flash a custom kernel you can try this ONE It has otg support and works on cm 11 and android L

I flashed that custom kernel , and there is an option for otg which i have enabled but nothing comes up when i plug in the external memory.
I dont think there is a difference between using simple microusb external memory and a regular usb external memory conected via y cable.
Please help me fix it ! , i really need that otg.!

Two posts above yours. You need a Y otg cable and external power source for your usb

[Q] Problems with USB OTG

Hello. My phone is Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo (GT-I9301I) with custom ROM installed on it (CyanogenMod 12). today I bought and USB OTG cable (Y type).

And nothing happend (no notification on the status bar, nothing in file explorer). Any ideas how to fix this?

But thats ridicolous. There are some videos on YT thats shows S3 neo working with mouse, keyboard, usb and even PS3 controller. Like this for example: www . youtube . com / watch?v=GQkBr78kF2k
Next, the original Samsung Galaxy S3 was reported to be supporting OTG so why the upgraded version shouldn't support it as well?
Maybe that's just a kernel issue. I haven't tried it on stock ROM but maybe I will be desperate enough to do it
Anyway thanks for your reply. For a moment I thought no one will ever look at this thread.

To make otg work yu need otg y cable and a power supply and yes otg is kernel related i hope it helps
