[Q] Connecting the USB OTG HELP - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

COnnecting the Pendrive via USB OTG works only with the rooted devices ..is that true?
is there anyone who tried on the stock firmwere of galaxy s3
Coz i'm planning to buy a USB OTG

Yes, USB On-The-Go works for the Galaxy S III with stock firmware, I believe it should work for most Android 3.1+ devices with supported hardware.

unrooted phone can detect flash drive with ONLY fomatted to FAT32, it can't detect exFAT and NTFS. you need to flash custom kernel to make it detect

[Q] Root on MacOS

[Q] Charge port only charges but no data

I have a friend with a P7510 wifi edition tablet whose charge/data USB port only charges the tablet. It used to charge AND allow him to move data back and forth to PC or usb stick (with USB dongle) but ONLY charging works now.
Odin doesn't recognize the tablet, connecting it via usb to a computer plays the sound but the tablet is not recognized in windows at all. It is running stock TW. In addition, his tablet has on that broken version of firmware that Samsung pushed out several months ago that messed up screen rotation and Wifi. Booting to his stock recovery gives error so I can't even flash on another ROM.
Is there anyway to get him onto a new ROM and/or to fix his bootloader?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Are you sure you have the correct drivers install on your windows computer?
1000% sure the drivers are correct. I have even tried the tablet on my own PC since I've the P7510 as well. It also does not work with the usb dongle attachment and any usb device like you used to.
The linked picture is what I get when I boot into recovery mode.

Solved: Samsung Galaxy S2 USB flash drive storage not working

I have Samsung Galaxy S2 on stock 4.1.2 ROM and have bought a USB OTG cable. I connect my USB flash drive onto USB OTG cable then connected the cable to my phone and it shows a message USB mass storage is connected. When I open My Files app, I cannot find any way to access my USB. Am I doing something wrong?
Edit: Solved, tried another USB and it worked.

OTG works with flash drives but doesn't works with another android device

I have an android device with OTG support, the problem is when I connect a flash drive its okay, works fine, but when I connect my android phone it just charges the phone and cannot access its storage, even when I set the USB mode as MTP or PTP. Both is with USB debugging enabled and USB mode as MTP.
Have you any idea why this happening? I heard about it that it could be a kernel limitation, since the kernel recognize any usb device attached as USB flash drive, it'll try to mount but without success when connecting with others android devices.
