Has anyone tried an OTG cable? - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Has anyone verified that an OTG cable works or not with Chainfire's stickmount on a rooted One X?
Has OTG been removed from the kernel or not?

Some users have commented it's disabled in kernel. I have not verified this but I have verified it works in fastboot. Issue is the port will not supply power, so pretty pointless imo.

Will kernel support allow the usb to provide power, or is getting sd card storage working fruitless?

I've read that it won't supply power, but not sure whether or not that's something we can control in software.

I tried a plain OTG and it didn't work.
I haven't tried it with a Y cable yet though. I'll see when I get home.

Shouldn't work as we don't have kernel support.

[Q] Does the Optimus 3D support USB OTG?

Does the Optimus 3D support USB OTG?
LG's euro site doesn't mention it.
The OMAP4430 supports it. (in fact it only has host USB ports, and USB OTG, no slave only ports)
Also it would be interesting if there was a way to solder up devices to the extra USB host interface, if it isn't already used in the phone.
If the processor does support it, that would be great, but how we will enable it? What I can tell is that the Optimus 3D doesn't support usb OTG since I tried that myself.

I tried it and it does not work It seems that in our kernel has not implemented this feature
Sorry for bad english

very slowly
One thing to try is booting the phone with the proposed usb device already attached (for example flash drive) as in other devices this can allow host mode to engage during startup. I dont have the correct cable to try this.

Did anyone manage to make it work? It maybe works on ICS?
OK did some tests and the OTG can't be implented because the MUIC driver /driver/muic/muic_max14526.c ATM can't support it.
I cannot find updated driver in network :/

Bad luck.
I had pinned great hopes on you breaking the USB-OTG deadlock.
Thanks for your efforts.
O3D would have been a complete phone with 3D, HDMI, USB-OTG!

Hi,
A lot has happened since then. A re-look into things, maybe new info( like ported ICS) may change things a bit.!

8013 PROBLEM with OTG usb on Jelly Bean

Many of us with JB and 8013's are not able to us OTG devices on our Notes. I tested it yesterday with three different ROMS and none of them supported it. While on 4.0.4(ICS) everything was fine, not one issue. Are there any Devs that could help with this as I am not knowledgeable enough to do it. Thanks a lot!
Yes please, if one understand the working of the otg usb please help us.

Well, I know you guys want OTG. I was just asking in general. I just wanted a stock JB Rom that is compatible with 8013. I won't be using OTG. Hmmmm stock JB update from Germany....i should try that.
i have an otg cable on the way, so I'll experiment when it arrives.

Otg gives you a supported usb drive.
So you can attach usb keyboard, usb mouse and a flash drive.

or a game pad.
or a umts modem... which is the problem:
I did look at the dmesg output, when I was under ICS mostly because of the current consumption, but also looking for the IR port.
I see now a big difference there, using the German JB 8000 Rom with the 8010 files.
Somewhat (perhaps a Init script) does load the OTG usb kernel modules, then load a usb modem (mif related to umts) and after a while there is a termination of a certain unknown pid, probably because of the modem not responding, which is then unloaded and also does switch off that OTG usb port and unload it's k. modules. Seconds later the whole thing is repeated again and again...
Surely also a reason why it's consuming more power, and probably the reason why other OTG devices have troubles.
I would like to help, but I don't know how android works on that (kernel) level, I had some knowledge about usb on linux 5 years ago, so I don't know how it has evolved.
If someone of you, Dear Rom Backers, could lead me to some (hardcore) knowledge about the whole startup(/wake) process.
I could investigate a bit more.
Other problem I did encounter with JB, somewhere a memory leak, my RAM slowly does fill up in a way, where I can't reset it, without rebooting.
OK I have my otg cable now, and can see the problem, but not the cause.
When I get near to something that can adb in I'll have a look, if anyones' got any pastebins of dmesg and logcat in the meantime please let me know.

this is using the 8000 rom on 8013 and 8010 devices, no idea if the issue is on 8000 devices, or whether it will be there on the 8010/13 firmware.

maybe it's conflict because people are flashing firmware that is not supported on their tablet, i sure hope that is the case.

Absolutely. I have an N8000 using the correct official N8000 JB firmware for the device and USB works perfectly. That's why there are different firmware versions for different devices - simple.
I have a small unpowered USB hub attached to a cheap generic USB OTG connector. I am typing this using a USB wireless keyboard and mouse and I have a Note 10.1 with 160GB of storage. 32Gb internal - 64gb using internal micro-SDXC card and 64gb with a second micro-SDXC in a micro reader attached to the hub (seen as a usb drive 1 so presumably can add more). That's 160gb seamlessly available in all programs for Video, Music, documents and whatever. Eat you heart out fruit-boys!!

[Q] Any progress concerning USB-OTG on our beloved Optimus 3D?

Hi there!
I just wanted to know, if there are any news concerning the development of a kernel for the Optimus 3D which supports USB on-the-go (OTG).
Is there anyone working on that matter?
Thank you for all your great work!

edit:
I found a kernel from Pesach85 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35531644&highlight=otg+lightning#post35531644) for ICS.
Does this one actually support USB-OTG? Has anyone tried it?

At this time none of the available kernels supports usb otg.
Yet we have some great kernel developers (Pesach85 is one of them) that keep doing excelent job and might get there.
The lg nexus 4 officialy doesn't have otg,but someone made it work. And another BUT.... the only problem is that it can be used with a Y cable,with one end connected to the phone and one to the charger. Not like samsung,though its getting closer.

O3d is listed as a compatible device on their site -- http://www.beyondusb.com/compatible . someone needs to test it.
Curiously, LG didn't want to use USB-OTG, and I excepted that it was intentionally disabled by the software, yet USB mass storage is also disabled (much to my dismay). I personally hate MTP, nearly useless for my purposes.
Yet, the OMAP4 CPU have multi-mode USB-OTG host port, so it may have to have it enabled by the registers. LG have rather odd habit of hiding things in the source codes.

I have seen that Total commander app have some kind of module for that.
