I've recently bought a USB OTG cable but my phone (D290N) doesn't give power to any device I connect. I tried on a Lenovo tablet I have handy in my home and I can confirm that the problem is only with our device. How can I make my phone give voltage to the OTG cable ?

Haha otg is not only about hardware the kernel also has to support it, even my secondary device supports it by hardware but the kernel doesn't.....
Of course it does support otg, but not fully. It doesn't give power when u connect something to the port though.. :/ So how can I make it give power ?

You have to get an otg set up with a separate power source. The old nexus 4 was the same way.
How exactly do I do that? I have one more cable with a USB A Male connector.

To be honest I am not sure as I never used the OTG for the nexus 4 or any device I have used so far so really have not looked into it.

Hi,
I do not know if it already has been discussed, but my idea is this:

With this cable and with a right software maybe we can read a pendrive from our pda...
Excuse me for my bud english and thanks for attention.

With some phones i know its possible, dont know about diamond, ive seen people hooking up usb gamecontrollers even. It was'nt possible on my hermes.
ok, but the concept of a cable between miniusb and usb female is possible?
in otherwords you want usb host...
there are several threads on that here already

Yes.
You can make it if you want, but you can buy it too.
Look on ebay.
ok, but once i buy a cable, what software i have to use for read a pandrive from my diamond?

there is none!
As someone already have pointed out; there is no USB-host funcionality on the diamond. Even if you get the cable you request, it won't help.
If i remember correctly the touch pro has usb host. correct me if im wrong.

Hello,
I have left the USB cable at home and I would like to be able to sync my phone with my PC while I am away.
If I am not able to get ahold of the right cable, is there maybe another Windows phone or Samsung USB cable I can use?
Please reply - thanks in advance,

It is indeed! I believe it is a required standard feature of all WP7 phones, is it not?
Thanks guys, I feel silly now. I tried a Mini-USB rather than a Micro-USB, oops!
Going to go pick one up now cheers!
Do you think that it will still support USB OTG? There is no info anywhere about this. I use it every day on my Note 2 (mouse and flash drivs mostly).
Also, do you think that the smart dock will still be compatible with it?

No, not FAT drive either. Using COM-FOUR USB3.0 Adapt Bu A -> St microB
Works fine with the supplied USB3 cable for mains & car 12V charging as well as PC x-fer

Are you running a C.Rom? OR Stock ROM?
Did you root?
Works perfectly with a microUSB3 OTG cable.

That doesn't sound like an OTG cable, HAS to be an OTG cable, which has a different pin arrangement that the phone recognises.

It may not be this easy. I know on some devices you have to experiment and place a switch inline with a specifically sized capacitor and or resistor to "fool" the charging circuit to allow this to happen. Thats how it was with the Dell Venue I had. It is rarely plug and play like this but you will just have to play with it and see, be sure to let us know how it goes!
Hello,
I've tried to find a clear, straight answer online and while I have found info regarding the USB-C standard, I can't find an answer to my question.
I use a mirco usb plug to charge both my current mobile phone and my android tablet.
Does the smaller port in the OnePlus Two use the same sized micro-usb port for charging? I understand that the USB-C port is the larger port on the other end of the cable. Maybe I am wrong about that.
Right now I have several micro usb chargers that I use to charge my phone and my tablet, and I'd like to know if they will be able to charge a OnePlus Two. I don't mind if the charging is slower, but I'd just like to know if it will fit and charge.
Thanks!
No in my sense,as far as my knowlege goes, USB-Type C is altogether a different technology,so you will need a special adapter for OTG too..

No.....a big No....the port they are using is nothing more than a new plug on the phone side of the cord. The other end of the cable will plug into all your old USB ports. So you will need to use the OP2 cable but the end that does not plug into the phone will plug into any current USB port.
They did not include any of the good things that come with USB C, they just put the USB C plug in the phone and on one end of the cable.

Thanks, friend. That's clear. This is a drag. Right now I have several charging cables that power all my stuff. Now if I get the OP2, I'll need two cables for home and two for the office. That's a negative in my book
Thanks!

Based on the release video they said an adapter would be available older USB cables so that might be an option for you.
Good to know. If the adapter is small and inexpensive, that would help a lot! Thanks!
