OTG CABLE Help - Motorola Droid RAZR

So i was wondering if this OTG cable will work on my dorid razr for connect things such as a ps3 contoll or keyboard. http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Micro-U...513597?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item19d56784bd thanks in advance

I've been wondering the same....
From what I understood from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1349038
You need to the OTG cable, plus an external power source, plus a usb hub?..
I don't know if using this one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Micro-USB-H...970640?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2577ef70d0
Or the one you posted would work....
Anyone? A little help here please.

There's a section on this forum for questions, it's called Q&A and it's not in here. Having said that, if you used the search option here you would've found out that there's no USB OTG kernel for Evo 3D reported working yet.
This belongs into Q&A!
Is this really that hard to understand?

Ya thread reported.
thanks for the judging. but i needed an answer sooner as i am writing an article for a magazine and wanted a thorough answer. have been searching for all possible answers on the web and XDA. havent found a single. Leedroid reported in their latest versio about OTG enabled, but after testing it found not working. i made a OTG cable by shorting pins 4 and 5 and used it along with a USB hub. the only phone it worked on was the Sony Live with Walkman which has GB stock ROM. tried on HTC EVO 3d, Samsung Galaxy 3, Nokia Lumia, Motorola Defy and LG optimus one, but failed. i could get the keyboard and mouse working at the same time on the Sony. wanted it to work on my Evo 3D... any help would be appreciated.
Galaxy S II should have USB OTG support in Gingerbread. Galaxy S III should also have USB OTG support out of the box. I didn't have any luck in enabling USB OTG on the Evo 3D. Double check your cable, some of those phones should have USB OTG support.

[Q] USB mouse?

Anyone got a USB mouse to work on their G9?
edit: from the 3g port, like this guy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7H-EupM9g4
I dont want it bad enough to buy an adapter '
edit 2: someone said probably need a usb hub to translate usb 1.1/2.0
I can't get it to work through the back USB port either. Archos themselves say you need a micro USB to USB host cable, I ordered one today so I can test later.
Don't worry. Spend a dollar and buy OTG USB adpter. And your device will looks sexy not inside but and outside.

Yes, on my 80 G9 turbo hdd, I use the previous model of this: keyboard and mouse touchpad.
With this. Works like a charm.

The 3G USB host port needs definitely a hub to handle USB1.1 devices.
The OTG USB port is able to work with either with USB1.1 and USB2.0, but is restricted to work with HID and mass storage devices, due to software restriction.
AFAIK there's no general device support on the OTG port.
Correct me if i'm wrong...

It works for me without a hub

The video is private, and it doesn't work with a hub either, I've just tried.

Attaching USB thumb drive to x10

Has anyone bought a micro-usb to usb adaptor (female) and attached a usb thumb drive or similar to the x10?
Does anyone know if it works?
I have just purchased one from ebay and I am awaiting its arrival in a couple of weeks. I am keen to try it and see if my phone will recognise it using Astro.
Will it break my phone?

Sorry USB OTG is not supported on X10 and there's no hack available for it to work as of yet

You're absolutely right. It does not work. Not on the miui 2.3.2 cobrato anyway.

USB OTG Trick , Would it solve our problems ?

I guess most of us faced the too much power problem with OTG cable while connecting to certain devices like usb modem or 6 axis (PlayStation 3) gamepad
I was thinking what if I used external power supply using a hub as shown in the attached pic
would it work , is there any other solution?
the pic is a method for usb otg non supporting devices like nexus s, offcorse they also need a special kernel and certain apps
sorry I'm new and can't post links
any comment is appreciated
thnks

in order to solve that problem, you must connect a powered usb hub to the phone, and the gamepad to the hub.

Moto Z and OTG storage

Does anyone have luck to use a USB stick with the Moto Z?
I have an USBc to microUSB adapter
And I am trying to connect this Stick
But without any luck.
This stick works fine on my PC/ Laptop/ Samsung tablet and Note Edge.
Any ideas?
I cannot seem to find any info regarding the MotoZ and OTG connectivity.
Is that a known Motorola problem/limitation?
Thx.

Filers that read our phone's OTG (ZPlay here) are few. Get File Commander, the new Solid, some like Total Commander but it has to make a duplicate.
Music not so much. The filers can hand off to players. But good 192 k and play through there is none. There is Poweramp for play through and hopefully the next version will allow Android 192k. USB Audio PP will not see OTG (plays 192).

It is a limitation that started with MM. DEVs are daunted by the new requirements to get it going.
Thanks. I appreciate your response.
I am not so concerned about the 'filer'- as you call it, I used Root explorer. Neither does the ZPlay do anything fore, as I am using the MotoZ
Thanks.
I was referring to the fact that my OTG storage does not show up on the device.
That's why I asked if anyone had luck on the Moto Z to access an external USB stick.

It's the micro USB to USB C adapter. You need to buy a USB C OTG cable.
