Do I need a otg cable or can I use a mini usb to usb then a female to female connection and work that way. That's what I was using on ics on zarboz kernal. Worked fine with otg helper. But now I cant mount my memory stick
You need a real OTG cable. Once we get the kernelsource Im sure we will get a kernel that will support OTG over a normal cable again
So guys i read somewhere before that USB OTG cable only works with android 3.x and aboove because they contain necessary kernals needed to make USB work.......maybe that was the reason USB OTG wasnt working on stock rom........
has anyone tried OTG cable on CM10/10.1..??...maybe that might work.....
plz someone tell me if it works on our phone or not....i really want to connect external storages to my ace plus

there is no otg support in our hardeware
may be in future some other dev can do this but right now there is no way to get otg support
Hi,
This is my first post so bear with me ...
I have recently purchased Moto G and was trying out OTG functionality. I have brought a USB 3.0 16gb pen drive and formatted it in FAT32 File system and trying to connect to Moto G using a OTG cable (USB 2.0) but it is giving an error "USB storage is blank or has unsupported filesystem"
I recently tried out with 8gb USB 2.0 pen drive an it was working fine.
Can you please advice what could be the issue here and how to fix this?
Thanks,
Mukund
I want the moderator to ban me.

I believe the 16gb USB3.0 pen drive you have is backwards compatible I.e, it also supports USB2.0
Then the problem is with the file system of the pendrive ... Stock moto g ROMs doesn't detect NTFS USB devices... You should change it to fat32 and try

Thanks, But I already have FAT32 as the file system for my pen drive. Is there is a posibility that Moto g / OTG cable doesn't have capability to transfer date as 3.0 speeds or backward compatibility should take care of it ?
Will it help if I have a OTG-USB 3.0 cable, or it will also have the same issue may be due to Moto G limitation?
Thanks,

As your phone supports USB 2.0, I think that's why you are facing problem with USB 3. pen drive.
As far I know, USB port is related to hardware. So, probably you won't be able to upgrade your USB 2.0 to USB 3.0, but I am not sure.

hmm..It is possible, But I am not sure what is the phone capability. I thought moto G may have support for connecting to USB 3.0 using OTG-USB 3.0 cable, which is recently introduced in market. I did some google research on the same but could not find out if there is some intrinsic limitation of Moto G with USB 3.0..
I bought a dual USB disk for Nexus 4 , the one like sony has released recently, my Nexus 4 doesn't detect it, I tried flashing a custom kernel with a OTG support but no luck. Any idea how can i make the USB work ?? The USB does have a micro-usb connector ..Any reply will be really helpful

nexus 4 does not support usb otg. the only way is to have a custom rom with usb otg AND have a Y micro usb cable to give power to the disc.
in other words nexus only supports external powered usb otg.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/development/kernel-patch-hells-core-kernel-otg-t2586524
this a list of compatible kernels. somewhere in the forums there is a thread for this if i remember that so search and you will find it.
thanks
