I bought a type C to micro USB Adapter. I cannot use it for accessing my pendrive. I use Mi A3. What's wrong?

The adapter can only charge the device but not carry data.
Some adapters can but are probably more expensive

Would 5pin to 11pin micro usb adapter allow use of non-BN cable?

You don't need an adapter to use regular micro USB cable. For file transfer it doesn't matter if you use regular micro or BN cable. You can charge with a regular micro USB as well, but it will take a lot longer. I doubt the adapter will help with that, but I don't mind being wrong.

It would be interesting to know if the adapter would help make a regular cable into one like the original BN cable for faster charging.

Make sure u enable it in settings... Even a rs. 50 Otg works
I tried few but none of them worked..also I enabled otg in settings.
I tried 10 more usb c adapters but none of them work.
I tried Usb c to usb? Does usb C to usb will work Or do I need to get usb c to micro usb?
I've tested a few and I can tell that no ordinary otg type C adapter works with OnePlus 2. The one which works is either the xiaomi type C adapter or the original OnePlus type C adapter. Xiaomi doesn't sell that adapter in india as far as i know but u can get it from sites like ebay, aliexpress etc but I personally don't trust these sites. So I decided to go with the original OnePlus type C adapter for about ₹250 from Amazon.in. Here's the link below:
OnePlus 2 USB Type-C Adapter -- Original https://www.amazon.in/dp/B01LW1I27J/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_CyFKybGT6RB5E
The seller was Eoneplus. There are other similar products on amazon claiming Original oneplus type C adapter from different sellers but i can't comment anything about them as I just tested this one and it worked for me.
I hope this helps!!
Can I use a USB C to Micro B (female) adapter and plug a OTG adapter into the Micro B port, without damaging my device or USB stick, or won't this even work? I'm asking because I still have a OTG cable lying around and I also have a USB C to Micro B adapter, but I don't want to damage anything Has anyone tries this? I tried searching for it online but I can't find anything about it.

Ok, thanks. I'll try it then.
But your USB C to Micro USB adapter needs to support OTG. I have an adapters which does not support it.
I have a USB C adapter connected to a Samsung OTG cable, but the tab S3 is not picking it up. The OTG cable works well on my Note 5. Is there a solution to it? Thanks
What are you trying to connect to your Tab S3? A hard drive?
I just tried a USB C flash drive on my Tab S3 and it works properly. OTG capability should be there.

I am using the Xiaomi USB Type-C to Micro USB adapter with a Samsung OTG cable. I use that Samsung OTG cable on my Note 5 to connect a thumb drive or a card reader and it works fine. Does that mean it is the USB Type-C to Micro USB adapter itself that must be OTG for it to work?
The Xiaomi USB Type C to Micro could be the culprit. Maybe it is used for charging only?
Yes, you are correct, it is for charging and connection to a PC and having an OTG cable on top does not seem to work. I have ordered a proper USB C OTG adapter online, it should arrive next week and I hope it works. Thanks for your response. Cheers.
Hi gurus, just got this phone.....happily wanted to transfer all my music and movie files to ROG phone using OTG, but phone unable to detect the sd card !
tried using OTG dongle, sd card reader, even connect ROG phone to another type C phone using the original cable provided.....all failed.
emailed to Asus asking them, replied to me saying this phone does not support OTG !!!
WTF?!!
any gurus here tried connecting the OTG successfully??
I am using china otg from Oukitel mobile - I only had to buy USB-C reduction. Everything works perfectly
I'm using a 128GB USB 3.0 stick even formatted with NTFS via a USB-A to USB-C adapter without problems. Haven't tried it with an SD card reader as I don't own one.
Provided cable is optimized for charging only. You will need to find a data cable and use the side port, not the bottom port.
