You must find kernel compatible with controler and enable it
Custom kernel requieres root and custom recovery.

Uhm... CM11 don´t know, because I don´t use it.
TW 4.3 means stock ROM? Its Boeffla kernel.

Problems with USB OTG in Custom ROM (kernel Siyah) i need help.

Please, I want to know which kernel and custom roms which allow me to connect a USB OTG, I am with kernel Siyah 3.4.1 and two ROMs: Hydra and Resurrection Remix (in dual boot) and I can not connect pen drive in S2 he does not recognize.
I have to configure anything else? Or this kernel, these ROMs are not compatible with USB OTG?
I appreciate the help.
Siyah supports full OTG (mouse, keyboard, pendrives formatted in FAT/FAT32/NTFS). Problem is probably in your ROMs.

OTG Support - Moto E
OTG support was available for version 4.4.2 and after upgrading to 4.4.4 it stopped working. Now we get only 4.4.4 version pre-installed. Is there a way to downgrade to version 4.4.2?

Moto E does not support OTG, it never did, it's both hardware and software limitation.

Yes flash 4.4.2 stock firmware without flashing gpt.bin file.
Yes, you can unlock Qualcomm settings.
Step 1 - install a custom android launcher, such as nova or apex.
Step 2 - long press on the home screen and popup appears, and click on add shortcuts. Shortcuts>activities>com.Qualcomm.settings>Qualcomm settings.
Whenever you connect your otg go to Qualcomm settings and click on enable otg or otg mode peripheral, and also switch on mass storage mode.

CONFIRMED!
OTG works on stock 4.4.2 using external powered usb hub, there is no mouse/keyboard detection but sucefully load my usb flash drive using the "Nexus Media Importer" app from playstore.
This means, Moto E has USB Host Support from hardware! The only limitation is in newest softwares/kernels!

Some Android device does not support any type of usb connections, like most of LG phones, these devices haven't otg drivers, XML permissions, mount partitions and kernell support, but in hardware i think the only limitation is the 5V power supply, and yes, you're right, mounting usb sticks through ext powered usb hub isn't otg support like moto g and x, is only a simple USB Host support

I used a external powered usb hub and a simple otg cable, this method is working only on 4.4.2 stock firmware, don't ask me why, in lollipop it don't seems to work, but probally using a custom kernel is possible put usb host to work, let's wait for a developer to do that in future

Galaxy Tab 2 issue with OTG cable

Me.n.KHOF4SH said:
Hey guys, I have an otg cable for my tab 2. I also running cm 12.1 on my tab. (ps, I also updated my ROM and didn't workout)
Now, the wired thing is that when I connect a flash to otg it works perfectly fine, but when I connect my usb keyboard and gamepad it won't recognize it. (Both keyboard and gamepad work perfectly in G3 and SII)
I tried many apps, but nothing! Any thoughts guys?

Maybe it's because we have a 3.0.31 kernel on CM. We're working on a new omap based 3.0.101 kernel. Hope we'll get it done this year... Samsung don't make it easy...

M4 OTG(through powered otg)?

Has anyone tried whether otg works after using a powered otg cable?
Just like it worked on Xperia L .
Thanks if anyone can reply.

well it works well for the xperia L stock rom no need of cm.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l/general/guide-usb-otg-support-sony-xperia-l-t2427150
and for nexus 4
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/orig-development/usb-otg-externally-powered-usb-otg-t2181820
and some other devices got otg using this method as well.
I don't know whether this will work for lollipop.
we should be able to get otg to m4 through this or similar method.but actually nobody seems to be interested.
I dont have a powered otg cable or usb hub to test it.
If anyone can test it please let me know.
thanks
why is nobody interested?
Its a software bug with M4, other phones work without having external power.

If it is a software issue, we should be able to make it.
but i think the cpu and hardware supports usbhost but sony haven't made it possible to power a device externally.
and files such as Android.hardware.usb.host is missing on the m4.
check usb host checker.
if we can add these required files and power the device externally. otg should work just like xperia L.

[APP][Root] OTG Enabler

A few days ago xda user yk1999 wrote the amazing tutorial, how to enable otg without power supply in our device. Thanks to him for it.
I decided that this method can be a bit complicated for users, so I made a small app to simplify otg enabling, no more need to use terminal.
This app requires root.

I tried the app, it worked perfectly,
except that when I was done of course I deactivated the function from the app it self
but, my phone didn't charge via it's usb port, even that i disabled it (coz i know u indicated that i should disable it otherwise it wont charge) and I had to restart the phone completely to get it to charge again.
PS : I'm on stock using the latest PHN 4.4.2 ROM Rooted, and have TWRP installed
