I see tutorials for other variants of the honor to enable usb otg but not for the l24 variant. If its available and I'm just missing it point it out to me but so far I haven't found a solution.

I too, wish to activate OTG on my first smart phone. From my little understanding CM13 will indeed utilize the OTG, but no longer support the finger print scannner. It maybe (will be) over my head, but why can't both utilities be accessed at the same time?

Fingerprint scanner has been working fine in CM13 sense 7/20/16 all you need to do is update to MM first

Thanks, I'll explore that. MM may be another kettle of fish with Tasker or it's plug-ins. More homework to do and another thread. http://cdn2.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

The Honor 5x is now upto EMUI 4.0, Android 6.whatever
On this ROM, EMUI4.0 stock from Huawei, there is no OTG support. It isn't from lack of hardware being present- the kernel (the clump of code that runs the physical hardware directly) doesn't include the coding to do the deed. Why not? Well, personally I think it may have something to do with the way OTG devices are powered by the phone.
CM13 currently supports fingerprint scanner (FPS for short).
You misunderstand the issue for the FPS versus OTG functionality; let me explain:
FPS wasn't working on custom ROMs because the source code for EMUI 4.0 (M) wasn't released. FPS isn't something you can activate with a single line of code.
Also, FPS requires certain code clumps from Huawei directly, thus we need to update to FULL EMUI4.0 STOCK STATUS before using any ROM that may access the FPS.
OTG isn't available on stock because Huawei didn't activate it.
If you use a custom ROM, all these 'issues' basically disappear.
I still don't suggest charging one phone off of another phone. Or using a portable hard drive without exterior power. You can watch the battery drain.
Is there any way to enable otg storage on the l-24 model by flashing a different kernel then changing the build prop to enable otg? ( Have see tutorials on how to do it but for other models )
Just use a better ROM, like CM13.

Hello! I was redirected here from XDA Assist Forum for the following.
The device i am using is a Kindle Fire HDX 7 32GB running Thor-Gapps-13.3.2.4-v1 ROM.
I've been searching for an answer on how to get an OTG cable to work for my Kindle to play roms. I tried a much older method http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1652800 but with no result. If there is or isn't a method please let me know :highfive: Thank you for taking a look :fingers-crossed:
Huh?
USB OTG isn't enabled on this device. I believe it is at the kernel level and since we don't yet have a released bootloader unlock, all ROMs have to use the stock Fire OS kernel.

Thank you for letting me know
Still the case? Any idea from anyone of the developers if its ever going to be a possibility? I'm about to buy another one due to its perfect physical size for my mod need and I need OTG for an FM Radio.
Does this honor 5x have OTG support? I'm thinking of buying it tonight
It was advertised to have OTG but currently it is not working and Huawei knows this. They said that it would be fixed in a patch but so far nothing. If you need OTG now then you won't get it but hopefully they fix it in the future.
---------- Post added at 03:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:37 AM ----------
According to a reviewer on Amazon:
I cannot get OTG to work even after following the steps recommended by Support (see below). Basically...we need to wait for a patch to fix OTG.
=============
Hello Erik, thank you for contacting Honor US Support, the Honor 5X does support USB OTG. I'm sorry to hear you are having trouble with connecting your current devices. One Suggest I have for troubleshooting is to do a our power cycle on your phone while the device is connect. This may allow for the connection to show up. As well there are a few applications on the Play store which you may be able to use to troubleshoot the OTG if the first step does not work. Please note that the 5X has not yet been released yet. It's official release will come on January 31st. At that time we may also send out some updates that will correct you issue.

Is your kernel fully stable? Bugfree? Did you change anything else in kernel besides enable USB-OTG support?

Hi,
according to GSMArena (https://www.gsmarena.com/one_plus_x-review-1337p3.php) the OnePlus X supports MHL. I recently bought an MHL Adapter, but I can't get it to work. LineageOS 14 (latest nightly) is installed on the phone.
How could I check if the phone or the ROM supports MHL?
The cable definitely works, I have tested it with my tablet.

Why don't you try using stock firmware once? Custom ROMs may not support it since there is very limited use of it. (You could always use a Chromecast)

Because I don't like the stock firmware and the "current" stock firmware is from 2016 (almost a year old) and has a lot of other bugs/security issues. It's still Android 6, whereas with Lineage I'm at the current Android version (7.1.2) and current security patch level as of last week. Lineage also gives me other features, which the stock firmware doesn't provide.

No, I meant taking a nandroid backup of your current ROM with data, flashing OOS and then checking if it works.
It depends on MHL cable. You really should look at MHL's number of pins. As I recall specific cables are working and some don't.

There are 5-pin and 11-pin cables. Samsung uses 11-pin, but OnePlus, Sony and most other manufacturers use 5-pin. I have a 5-pin cable with a 11-pin adapter. The 11-pin adapter won't even fit the phone (without forcing it).
So i've installed this custom os [ROM] [N6F26Q] AOSP Nougat (12 Jan 2017) on my Galaxy s2 plus, and then my DSLR camera connection stopped working (OTG), but the os says it should be compatible with OTG, i'm not sure the DSLR has anything with OTG to do tho?. Now i have googled around and found files neccessary for it to work, installed them and USB Host Controller detected them, still not recognising the camera.
So is there a way to install what's "neccessary" from the original stock firmware into some kind of kernal or "added function" via Custom Recovery or perhaps Odin?
Thanks to anyone that can potentially help to solve this!
This is something you give up when you use aosp. The otg works only if they use the open source version which most do not.
With aosp only the very basic functions will work.
Any custom rom for s2 plus that it works on if you know?
If anyone else have the same issue, it was never a problem with the os, i've tried it on several custom Os aslong as your phone is OTG compatible it works, it seems.
Buy a new OTG Cable and it will work again, or rather say buy the adapter version of it, better then the ****ty cable version that i bought, that broke out of thin air.

Poco had shipped on 8.0 OS. U want 6.0, really?
I don't think that's possible, as the device ships with Oreo. The vendor blobs are incompatible with anything lower.
WPS exists in Oreo, though, and there are plenty of third-party apps that can record calls.

Sr bro. Im not a developer. Just as you.
Why downgrading to Android 6? Xiaomi does not have Source codes and proper Vendors and other stuff to support Android 6, even Android 7. Pocophone F1 was built with Android 8 and cannot be downgraded. There is possibility to be downgraded but it need such time because of the missing vendors and stuff and why would a developer waste his/her time making a Android 6 custom rom for a Oreo based device?
There are workarounds though, just flash a custom rom. Some custom rom has call-recording feature.
But about WPS, couple months ago in a MIUI Forum, in the latest Oreo stable build, they removed WPS feature because it has many vulnerabilities than connecting using WPA2 PSK or other wifi configuration because it has better security. Maybe just move on WPS, manufacturers that makes WIFI removes WPS because it has poor security because it is pin-based code and can be brute force attack by someone in a matter of minutes.
Edit: Oh and Google did announced that they will remove WPS support on Android 9, link to that thread, https://www.xda-developers.com/wps-disappeared-android-p/
I know google remove wps for this reason i want Android 6.0
Someone port it and send please
