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.

It seams that the change to the MHL cable is to allow USB on Go with the same cable

there is a MHL adapter that gives you a male 11 pin micro USB to female HDMI so you can just plug a standard male to male HDMI cable from adapter to TV.
see:
Samsung Galaxy S III MHL to HDMI adapter
Does anyone know if this new adapter will work with the Galaxy Nexus, as well? Also, does it charge the phone--or at least keep it from being drained--when USB OTG is being used? I've been looking for a way to use USB OTG with a flash drive on my GN while also charging/powering the phone. USB OTG is a real power hog.
It should, but on mine it doesn't.
I've got a new MHL cable and a USB OTG cable in the hope I could plug my MHL into the SGS3, use a powered USB hub connected to the Micro USB on the MHL and then connect a keyboard and mouse into the USB hub, then connect the HDMI to the TV.
For me it doesn't work. I thought this was the whole reason they changed the MHL cable to the new type. Can anyone else confirm?
Logicalstep
can we get an update on this situation here? How
can we get MHL AND USB OTG?
My reading of the link is that the micro USB port has been repinned to provide USB on the go and not that the cable allows for this.On the mhl cable there is a female HDMI port and a micro USB ( both female) which must be used by the charger.
If the usb connection is also female type, we have to use a usb otg cable to get it work. But at the moment my phone also wont recognize any devices -.-' only mhl and nothing else.
I bought this adapter for 25 euros and want to have it working.
I also asked samsung on facebook 'bout this problem, and everything the told me:
Go support site...
very helpful.
I hope the will enable this feature in a future update.
I have not seen or heard what the micro usb will be used for on the NP....
The ADT-1 has a USB port and all it can be used for is a keyboard/mouse currently. I'd kill for OTG support. That said though, the ADT-1 also comes with a splitter for the power that adds an additional USB port to connect to your computer to access it via the SDK. So, it could be very much the same setup, or something completely different.
Interesting... You would think they would list the use for it.. maybe these OTG cables i have will come in handy..
It's been said that usb to ethernet adapters will work.

You can connect an OTG cable to it. I connected a USB 3.0 HUB + Ethernet adapter to the OTG cable and connected my keyboard & mouse to the hub and a 64 GB micro SD card for extra storage. I also used the the ethernet port so now I don't need to connect through WiFi

Hello
Apologies if this has been asked before. I can't find a definitive answer...
Has anyone managed to get access to an USB memory stick on the OnePlus 2 actually working?
I've just received my OnePlus 2 and have rooted it etc. I have bought a couple of USB type C to USB A female sockets, both claiming to support OTG. However, neither of them appear to work. I've tried with a number of different USB sticks, some of them with indicator LEDs on them. When plugging them in, the LED indicator stays off and there is no extra drive in settings/storage, even after ticking the OTG check box.
I have booted to TWRP recovery and tried to mount the OTG storage. The phone vibrates and the check box immediately disappears...
I'm not sure if I'm missing something here!
The two items I have tried are:
1. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00VGF2UPQ
2. http://m.belkin.com/uk/p/P-F2CU036/
Thanks for your time

Similar situation with me too:
So I have both of these adapters:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00W5BL1N2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00XLF1BZ4?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
Neither seem to work for me? I am trying to connect to a flight control board, so using a normal USB -> Micro USB, but the boards in question do not receive any power, nevermind data!
Any ideas?
Grr....
it seems that the problem is that does not support USB 3.1 (and do not know if not 3.0), the adapter must be old (not blue)
Both the OTG adapters I have support USB 2.0/3.0 and 3.1, but neither of them work.
What you are saying is you need a USB Type-C 2.0 adapter? Not seen those anywhere, are you sure they exist?
Same here. Doesn't work, using an adapter with a micro USB OTG cable doesn't work (this combo cable/Kingston USB 3 key works very well with OPO)
And it doesn't work either with this OTG cable

Stupid question but did you guys enabled otg option in your storage settings. I just received my Oneplus 2 yesterday and I saw that setting and enabled it. I am still waiting for OPO's C adapter that's out of stock on Amazon India and only then I can verify whether that really does make a different or not.

What do you mean by the c-adapter? How do you connect it? C-adapter connect to an OTG? Or the OTG is integrated with c-adapter in it?
Cus I bought a separate c-adapter then connect to my micro USB OTG cable..
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...

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?

I don't have write access as a user, only READ ONLY
I tried several known good USB drives. I tried several file managers. The system can write and reformat the USB drives. The Nexus 6P is not rooted. Is this normal? Any suggestions to get it to work? My head hurts from banging it against a wall.
Sorry to post dig, but ive got a working adapter but im seeing an issue:
- Sub 5mb per second transfer speeds
This is with es file explorer, but on other android devices with the same usb2 stick i cam easily get 14mb per second.
What speeds do you guys get?
I was able to get OTG working when I got this adapter ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017MP658G ). Not every device works on it, however. Several USB thumb drives have worked with no issues, one inexplicably does not. Also, and more disappointing, is that my USB to SATA adapter doesn't seem to be recognized. I have a 120gb SSD that I used this method with my LG G3 and it worked fine.
Maybe it's the adapter? Changing setting from "supply power" to "transfer files" does nothing to change it. It sees there's a USB attached, but doesn't read the format.
I've tried several USB to type C adapters with stock Nexus 6p. All of adapters had USB3.0 support, it's important. They all worked fine with USB2.0 flash drives and they all didn't with USB3.0 flash drive. I've ordered some adapters USB2.0 to type C to test.
UPD: I've tested six USB to USB type C adapters with both USB3.0 and USB2.0 support - they all not working with USB3.0 flash drives and work wine with USB2.0 flash drive. Also: the phone can recognize the drive but can't mount it.
I'm sure this is the phone issue - I've seen successful mount of my test flas drive with one of adapters on some Xiaomi phone.
