Not yet bro..kernel doesn't support it as of now.cute_prince said that he'll compile a kernel compatible with USB host,but not USB otg(not sure what he meant,but he did put pendrive in USB host).
However, you need to buy a otg cable with power supply to the pen as well.
Check the original dev thread for more information.

Has anyone tried an OTG cable?

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.

How to use usb otg in stock rom/kernel????
NEW TO THIS PHONE
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
impossible i think , it needs to be merged , but not in stock ROM/kernel
even with 3rd part kernel , you still need some cable special i think

USB otg.

Otg is the capability to run a mouse, USB and sometimes a hard drive via a micro OTG cable ... are there any roms that has that capability pre installed.??

Not currently. A few devs have mentioned adding it to their kernel but its still in the works.

Can anyone confirm this works with the stock Jelly Bean ROM?
Would prefer not to waste the money on an unneeded cable if it doesn't.

It is working on stock JellyBean. But for me only 1 of 10 USB drives is working. There is somewhere thread with more info.
Is it a voltage problem? Did the leds light up on the nonworking thumb drives?
I use two USB3 8 & 16 gigs one fat32 and the other nfts.

The stock firmware is set up to mount external USB disks that are connected via external USB hub.
For CM, I've made a change so it works when connected straight via OTG cable - https://github.com/razrqcom-dev-tea...mmit/cd3c5915f646c6ff34771d0ba39209db1911c130
So on stock, the few USB disks that work without additional USB hub between the phone and the USB disk are the ones that implement their own internal USB hub.

Usb power hub and WD HD...

Hey guys..
I have a WD 1tb HD which iz self powered...
I want to use it with my tab 2 p3100
I understand that tab cannot supply enough power to the self powered HD..
I have made a Y-cable for the purpose...
The HD lights up and vibrates indicating that its receiving power but unfortunately it doesn't show up on the tab..
Then I felt the cable might be the reason and I brought a usb power hub...
Its exactly the same situation with the usb power hub as well..
Plze help me out with getting my HD work with the tablet...
I have searched a lot but couldn't get a proper way to get things going...
My tab iz rooted with sungsonic hd v2 running...
USB power hub iz iball lappie...
WD HD uses usb 3 but tab doesn't recognize it with usb 2 cable as well..
Share it if u know it...

You need whether the official Samsung OTG Dongle (expensive) or a OTG Cable you can find almost every where for some buks (Amazon, eBay, ...).
The standard charging Samsung cable is not compatible !
You also need the Y cable if you use a high power/capacity devices you can plug on any USB port such as a Laptop or on the main power supplier if you use a power USB hub that allow it.
Then you need an application that support Fatx, NTFS, and/or HFS such as the Paragon apps (free of charge).
Support for EXT3/EXT4 is another matter as I couldn't find a working one when I was using ICS 4.0.4, but I didn't retried since I'm using Jelly Bean. Maybe there are working now ??? ^^
You can use the same OTG cable to plug any USB keyboard/mouse or any other USB devices if the ROM do support them, or if you use a custom ROM that do support them...

Not necessarily.....
Needed hardware and drivers may be different or lacking.
USB support is defined within the kernel drivers. Native support may be different between Android devices and firmware.
For example, the P6800 4.1.2 JB supports USB for iPhone_4S, P6810 ICS does not. (Only up to iPhone_4)

As I said, it's just an example of USB support from kernel. Although similar, some kernels have various functions enabled, some don't.
Sometimes, changes (for support) need to be hard coded/added at the kernel source or just from config file before compile. This applies also to USB and OTG -A & -B devices.
OT, have enabled USB support for missing iPad & iPhone 5 in upcoming SkyHigh kernel 3.0.0 (untested)

As already said, at least from Tegra 2 Galaxy Tab there are support for OTG.
If you know any other Samsung devices that don't support it as stock, then specify...
Don't talk about Apple devices as I hate them and don't even want to hear from them...

Sorry, I think you missing my point/example.
I am talking about unsupported USB/OTG features and support for various peripherals. Not all are supported with stock kernel.
As a very basic example, take a look at any kernel .config file.

Can I please get to know how do I get my HD working...?
I have figured out that I'll have to modify my kernal as no existing kernel dev say that they can assure the HD working...
So which files have to be modified ?
