to my knowledge, the Android OS does not have USB host drivers in the kernel. So to answer the question, no android based phone would allow this. Also keep in mind that Power will be needed to drive the USB device, and the phone for sure won't provide that. So you would be looking at creating an power injector for the USB cable.
You might be able to pay/convince a developer to do this for you in a custom kernel, but that's about it.
I did find this where it was done with an HTC hero.. you might be able to work off of that work.

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!
i got a otg usb cable who give me the option to charge the device while using the otg ub but it doesnt work.. maybe the device need a kernel that support it?
have you asked in the devs section?

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). I connected it to the power source, then plug the usb flash memory to the port and then I inserted the micro usb plug in my phone. And nothing happend (no notification on the status bar, nothing in file explorer). Any ideas how to fix this?
Link to ROM I installed:

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
I guess I should do it earlier but here is the pic of USB Y cable I was using. It is good? I'm not sure anymore I got in form a electronic store and they told me its an OTG cable.

If that's true then why the kernel with OTG function wasn't released?
