Is it possible to use one on Android or ubuntu to connect network (LAN) or shared by onther device?
AW: OTG + USB Ethernet ?
On Android it's working fine as long as you have the correct drivers for your Ethernet adapter either built in into your kernel or loadable as a module.

Hey guys, is USB otg ROM dependent or purely root dependent ? I ask because I am hoping my ROM doesn't support it and not that this cable I JUST purchased doesn't work >< BTW running jr6

Just root. Or, you could use Nexus Media Importer sans root.
Need root like what listeruk says. You could however use stickmount, then it will show up in your file explorer as usb. Links here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDMsImV1LmNoYWluZmlyZS5zdGlja21vdW50Il0.
So I run a CM10 nightly with franco.kernel r25. My USB drive mounts without the need for StickMount.
This is purely a curiosity question. I can DirectoryBind without issues as well.
So is USB support built in to CM? I didn't see USB storage as a feature of franco.kernel.
Thanks XDA!
Most full featured roms for the n7 will have this built into it. I have never used stickmount with any rom and external sds have always worked

I'm using smooth ROM but when I connect a USB flash drive it doesn't connect even when I try to use stickmount but nothing any help would be greatly appreciated. Also could it be a certain micro USB cable?

Woops, accidental thanks. Freebie to you!!!
Anyhow, youn said micro usb cable. You need an otg cable. Is that what you meant? If so, yes, there are different types of otg cables that work on different devices and not on others. You need to make sure yours is compatible with the n7.
OP- It is called "Automatic usb hotplug" support. It is not really a rom feature, but a kernel feature. M Kernel a24 now also supports this on 4.2.1.

Hi,
I have a Toshiba 500 GB HD USB 3.0 which i formatted as exFAT and now i can easily connect to my SGS4 GT-I9500 through USB OTG.
Now my question is can i connect 1TB HD with the same procedure without any extra power connection to HD?
Please note that i am on rooted stock room (MEA).
Sorry for my bad English.

It won't work, due to the power consumption of the external HDD. You should have an info, that the conected device won't work.
Well my Samsung 1tb disk works just fine - as it did with S3 before.

I have a laptop hdd (2.5") strapped to the back of my phone to be used on the go.
But if the hdd you have is 3.5" then it will work if you use external power. Id suggest u use ext4 instead of exfat.

I want to ask if your 1tb drive is a my passport? I'm planning to buy one tomorrow and I hope your read this asap. Thank you.
i have an xperia z , rooted bootloader unlocked.\
can support otg host external hdd 180 gb. 320,,
if i connect 1tb. hard drive. waht app might i use?
What's the word on these? If the kernel you're using supports USB OTG flash drives, does that mean that any USB stick is going to work fine? Or do you have to get one labled as "USB OTG"?
And is it as simple as plugging the stick into your computer, copying the ROM over to it, then plugging it into your phone, rebooting into TWRO and flash the ROM right off the USB stick?
Just wanna make sure before I purchase one.
U dont need to rename it to anything
Just format it as fat 32 and you are good
And you can copy anything to it or from it to your phone.

I am not sure if you can flash a ROM from the USB stick, but you can definitely transfer files within Android, if you have OTG cable (bought myself one). You can also use a mouse, keyboard or even a game pad.

So, you need a USB-OTG cable plus any old USB stick then. Thanks guys. :good:

Or this
http://www.verbatim.com.hk/en_HK/pr.../64444/store-n-go-otg-usb-3-0-drive-16gb-tiny
I use this and its so much better than any classical method of USB-OTG cable + USB stick, it's more convenient and compact.
Nice!
Here's a USB 2.0 16GB for $9 with 4.4 stars.
I think I'll give it a shot.
I need 2.0 since I flash random phones for random friends.

Hello everyone ,
I tried to connect my otg to my phone so then i can use it like an external memory but it doesn't work. I changed my kernel two times , i changed the ROM still no result
I'm under resurection 5.5.0 android 5.1.1
Help please ? ?
Neus 4 doesn't support regular OTG. You need a OTG-Y cable for external power supply.
