Can somebody try to make USB gamepad work. I have Hama Black Force and I use female USB2.0 to USB micro connector. I've tried all the apps who pretend to map my gamepad keys with no luck. Can somebody try to make it work?

Cingular 8125 as thumbdrive reader (not AS a USB drive, something that reads them)?

Possible?
With a mini USB B male to USB A female adapter would the 8125 be able to use usb drives you plug into it?
look up "WM5torage"
I reworded the post
i dont think it will work as wizard does not have usb host support
could it be made to work? that would be awesome

Micro-B to Female USB

Anyone tried this kind of cable to connect USB Stick or a mouse or a keyboard to Ideos X5?
I tried it, didn't work. Although I'd have to try with a powered USB HUB...
Your roms should be supporting usb host mode

Asus Vivo Smart ME400 micro-USB port

Does the Asus Vivo Smart ME400 micro-USB port support USB devices like flash drive - keyboard - mouse - HD & CD drive? If yes, where do I get the right USB adapter for it? THANKS.

Use a regular OTG Micro USB to USB adapter
I've been testing my micro USB port with a micro USB to USB OTG cable I have.
Logitech G700 mouse works.
Kingston micro SD to USB adapter works.
Corsair Vengeance 2000 headphones works.
WD 500GB USB 3.0 hard drive works.
Samsung Ultraslim DVD drive does NOT work.
The Samsung DVD drive did work on the full sized USB port on my Samsung 500T tablet. But on the ME400, the light lights up once when I plug it in, but never installs the device and doesn't have any power afterwards. This is a USB powered DVD drive.
Surprised the external hard drive did work when the DVD drive failed. But it showed up fine, had some videos on it, was able to play videos from there okay.
I have another external DVD drive that is powered externally, I imagine that'll probably work fine, I'm too lazy to find it and plug it in (it's an old giant clunky beast).

I think the port only puts out 500ma. The DVD Drive is most likely over that. However quite a lot of modern 2.5" HDDs (your external hdd) are just below 500ma in power which is why it works.
I'll try with my Aluratek dvd writer later. It has a Y cable so may need more than 500mA.

My Samsung DVD drive is powered from a single USB cable (no y splitter for extra power). So I'm guessing the micro USB port isn't even outputting 500mA. It worked fine on the Samsung Atom tablet and I doubt that USB port was outputting more than 500mA.
Guys i have this tablet for about 3 years now and now i face a problem, the tab do not charge anymore and does nothing, not even the orange light of low battery, he does give light of charging, but no life, is this a battery problem? Even if battery is dead shouldnt give life with the charging cable and turn on?

OTG support

I bought a type-c adapter for my Z1 to use OTG cable and Usb key. The key does not power on. I tried the adapter to charge the phone with a regular usb cable and it works.
Is this problem related to COS or is OTG function not supported on the Z1? Or is there a way to enable it?

I don't know if that has changed but for cm you have to use an app like StickMount to be able to mout the USB stick.
Ok thanks, I guess I have to root then.
I used only es file Explorer and it worked for me. I testet Ext hdd, mous, keyboard and controller
Same, no root required, just an usb C OTG and a file explorer. Be aware that the OTG or the device could be uncompatible...

I bought a USB-C to USB-A Converter and it works for me. Official USB type-c adapter has no support for OTG.

This might be the proper solution, it seems.
" type-c adapter for my Z1 to use OTG cable and Usb key"
What speed did you get to ?
Lenovo Zuk Z1
I tried Xiaomi USB typeC adapter with a SanDisk micro USB memory and it doesn't work
I have the same problem.At my oneplus 2 with adapter working normal but at Z1 not working.
No solution about that ? I got 2 adapters now (noname and Victsing) but still no otg, and usb storage options are unavailable !
Does it support in twrp recovery.. i mean does otg recognising in twrp...???
Strange, it should work out of the box on COS 12.1...just received my second Zuk1 and hooked up the Z1 to my car to read out the ECU, it worked without an hitch! Did not try a USB stick though...
I have 2 cables, one is with the micro USB for which I use a micro USB to type C USB adapter, the second USB OTG cable already has already the Type C connector and connects straight up.
I never used my "charging cable" as the idea is to plug your USB stick straight onto the OTG interface cable.
i have rooted/unlocked zuk z1.
tried every possible stuff (es file explorer,stick mount, usb troubleshooting etc), tried changing the otg cable, tried changing pendrives, nothing helps.
can anyone please help me?
xda is my only hope

Does xperia x compact support OTG ?

I change my phone to xperia x compact recently, I find the type-c USB is easy to use.
I have a otg usb drive with micro usb, which is working on samsung s7, dell tablet. I wonder if it can be used on XC.
Thanks
Not sure about your micro USB OTG drive, but I purchased a separate OTG type-C adapter which connects to my USB card reader just fine.
I tried to use a type-c to micro USB adapter, it doesn't work. Maybe I have to buy a type-c otg adapt first.

May I know what brand is your adaptor? I tried a couple of OTG type-C microSD card readers, but none of them work.. it simply don't seem to be providing power to the adaptor.
I could use a mouse using:
mouse -> usb to micro usb otg from z1 compact -> micro to usb c adapter

Even this doesn't work for me. My phone seems not being able to act as USB host and not recognising anything plugged in the type-c port. My phone is rooted, not sure if it's the cause.
I use the sony type-c dual flash drive and it works flawlessly
Still not working. I used a voltage reader and found that there is no voltage coming out of the USB port, no wonder it won't detect anything. No sure if my phone is faulty (doubt it, as the port works perfectly when it is USB client) or due to setting/rom/kernel...

Do you have a pop up screen asking you what to do when you connect anything to the USB port?
BTW, my USB OTG adapter is of a brand REMAX.
no, nothing happens as if the phone does not know something is connected. but works ok when connected to another host (pc or power source)
i'm using rooted 7.1.1 stock rom

Thanks! Finally i got it to work. Sorry that I had been trying type-c usb reader instead of a true type-c otg adaptor + reader... so, it fact it would work with a type-c otg adaptor.
