Hi everyone,
I've used an external keyboard last week with my archos 70 IT (it was under urukdroid 0.6). Since then, I've been back under the original archos firmware and then back to urukdroid 0.7. I've tried to plug the same usb keyboard on my tablet, but it seems that there's no power anymore :-( It works with a powered usb hub, but that means that I'd need a power plug near to me every time I want to use a usb device...
Any idea ?
Thanks.
Did the keyboard work on the original firmware? Maybe it's an issue with urukdroid 0.7

hey guys
i recently got a USB otg cable for my S2(GT-I9100) and while this cable fine works with pen drives it doesn't work with any USB Keyboards or Mice that i plug into it. every time i do plug a keyboard or mouse, the phone completely freezes and i need to do a restart to get it running again
I tried applying the fix mentioned here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1209567)
but still no good
any help will be appreciated
(PS: i am running siyah kernel 2.6.12 along with android 2.3.6)
Same here Bro
Heyho XDA,
sorry for pushing this old Thread,
but i have exactly the same Problem
Everytime i plug in a USB keyboard or a mice,
the Phone freezes instantly -.-
My Setup is:
CheckRom Revo v6
Siyah Kernel v2.6.13
Original Samsung OTG cable
Anyone else having this issue?
Or maybe a fix ?
Same problem
I've got the same problem. Pendrives, memorycardreader and systemcamera works great, but no mouse and keyboard.
Tested the same setup on my friends Galaxy Note and it worked out of the box. But not on my phone.
Download
USB Host Controller from the Play Store , see if that works.

It seems that USB Host and USB OTG are two different things. It has to be supported in the kernel. And I did root my phone and derooted by changing the kernel. I didn't save my original kernel so I had to download a new one. So maybe my kernel doesn't support OTG anymore.
I'm gonna look closer into this and report back it I'm getting it to work.
In the last days I flashed my P7510 from stock HC 3.2 to CM10 4.1.2 and it all seemed much faster.
But with the stock HC, maybe thanks to something Samsung installed in the stock rom, as I plugged a usb mouse to the tab (using the usb otg samsung adapter) it worked at once and a mouse pointer appeared in the screen.
After the JB update the mouse would not work.
Is there something I need to enable in the settings or any app do I need to install to use a usb mouse?
Would it work if I bought a blouetooth mouse instead?
Thanks.
No one has ever tried using a mouse?
Hi everyone,
I have an HTC one (ATT) that has CM10.1.3 installed with CWM Recover 6.0.3.1. The phone seems to work fine and I've been using it like this for a little over a week. Today my USB OTG cable came and I wanted to use it to transfer a few files off the phone to a USB stick and then on to another computer where I have not yet installed the HTC drivers. But the phone did not detect any drive. I looked at a few USB host helper apps and tried them out but they didn't help.
Searching through these forums for CM10.1 I saw 2 or 3 people say USB OTG doesn't work for that version, but is there a version of CM that does have USB OTG working for an HTC One?
I'm also not sure if perhaps my cable may be faulty. I rebooted into recovery with the cable and a USB stick installed and in recovery the USB stick's light did light up for a few seconds. But when attempting to mount as an external SD card it just gave an error. Funny enough when I tried to format the ext SD card, I was able to do so (I had put a GB of junk files on it before). After the drive was formatted I tried to mount it, but again I received an error. The drive is formatted as FAT32. So even if USB OTG doesn't work in CM10.1.3 shouldn't it have worked in recovery? I've googled some Youtube videos and saw a few people backing up their HTC Ones in recovery with a USB OTG cable and usb stick. Yet, I couldn't do that and of the 4 USB sticks I have handy (ranging from 256 MB to 32 GB) only the 4 GB Patriot XT stick lights up at all when connected in recovery. There is no blinking what so ever with the phone booted into CM.
If someone is using a HTC One and able to connect in recovery (or in CM), I would like to know. I'd be willing to buy a few other USB OTG cables in case mine (T&S Electronics version from Amazon) is faulty.
Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the reply. I'll try 10.2 next week and see if it works. Do you recommend TWRP recovery over CWM?

It was the cable
Just an update: I tried a different Cyanogenmod version and even a stock ROM and still had trouble. It was the cable. I bought 3 more USB OTG cables and now attaching a USB stick works well with all my USB sticks in both recovery and with running the phone normally. Thanks for the help.

P.S. Though I know it was a random event, the first cable from Amazon that didn't work was T&S electronics. The 3 subsequent cables were QQ Tech, Jkase and Sanoxy. All 3 worked fine with a range of USB sticks from 256 MB to 32GB (USB 2 & USB 3 sticks). Thanks.
Hi,
I have been looking for a long time, but it seems the desire 601 doesnt support USB OTG? Can someone confirm a running OTG on it?
I just bought a cable for it, and tried a couple of USB pen or mice on it without success at all. The mice led even dont start blinking once it is connected.
I might be the board of the 601 doenst supplie the power for it?
thanks

It supports OTG, I have tried connecting a mouse, keyboard, gamepad, usb sticks (fat32, you need an app to mount other filesystems) etc. and everything worked.

Great, do I need something to install? Or must the ROM be rooted? I just have the original rom installed no root.
thanks

If the usb stick is formatted as fat32, then you dont have to do anything. But if it is ntfs or other fs, you should install an app like stickmount, which requires root.
And for mice and keyboards, no other app is required, it works out of the box.
Hi,
do you have any custom rom running on it? I just have the stock rom which is even rooted, but no mice or stick is workin, but even no led appears, which acutally should blink once a usb pen is plugged, or not?
thanks

Q1:
Have you tried connecting your device to the computer via a USB cable? Can the computer recognize it?
If no, maybe there is problem with your USB port.
If yes, proceed to the next question.
Q2:
Have you tried changing the connectivity state for the USB port in Settings?
If not, try it out now.
If yes, report back and we'll discuss further more.
Use Es File Explorer... That's what I've been using
Sorry for late reply, I got it working, I replaced the usb cable, I think that the quality of the cable was too bad
