hi, i have a question, our smartphone support otg? i read a thread but i dont see the link, can u help me?
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.
Is there a way to downgrade to version 4.4.2?

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
Is otg working on moto e after lollipop update?

I don't belive it's not possible... Moto E has USB Host drivers, permissions, and mount partitions (I see it on my device) but, OTG don't works, with and without a powered USB HUB... So, i belive it's only a kernel limitation... or something like this... It's only my opinion, but maybe is possible make OTG works, just wondering

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...
Hello. I'm unfamiliar with xposed framework. I came here just to ask, is this possible to develop an xposed module to do that (stop usb charging while device is on MTP or Digital Camera mode)? If yes, somebody please take my suggestion and do it. Thanks.
@HellScre4m
I just released an app to disable usb charging in Android phone. Dunno it works for you or not.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.bramantya.stopcharging&hl=en
It needs root access.

My device is huawei gr 3 tag-l21
I always wanted to add mouse to android (for fun)
After i bought otg cable my divece could not see mouse nor sandisk
I thought cable was faulty but when i checked on samsung j5 prime it worked fine
After long googling i figure out that my device supports host mode but my OS does not support host mode
I can not find any costume roms for my device
P.S i have rooted and twrp installed
