AOSP Roms that support USB OTG?

Anyone know of any AOSP-type roms that support USB OTG?
I've been running Cyanogen roms for a while and it doesn't support USB OTG (currently running cm11 nightlies). I've heard it has something to do with the usb connector on the phone not providing power on the cm rom or kernel. Wife's phone is still on TW and otg works every time. I've tried a couple of different kernels with cm11 but no joy.
Anyone have any luck on any AOSP roms? Thanks!

note 10.1 with exfat in custom roms?

Hi guys ^^
so, I have the wifi note 10.1.
In run for a few months android revolution HD and I'm pretty pleased with it!
Now, with samsung finally updating this tablet with the latest android I was happy.
Finally ART and msaa 4x interrests me.
But seeing how samsung is going with the release we might get android 4.4.2 in 2015 maybe?
That's why I'd like to change for a rom that comes with 4.3 or 4.4 but I've seen that most custom roms don't support exfat format is that right?
I use Exfat for my external SD as I watch a lot on movies on hd and files are usually bigger than 4gb so I need Exfat or NTFS.
FAT 32 is useless for me...
So are there any good roms, stable and all that supports exfat or ntfs???
thanks ^^

exFAT support is kernel related not ROM.
if the ROM is built with kernel that support exFAT then you have the capability.
I'm using ARHD 11.1 & it already supported exFAT
Boeflla kernell 2.2 also support exFAT

USB Drive and USB Audio Support for 5.x ROM?

I have decided to upgrade from Kit Kat 4.4.4 which has been awesome. So far it seems that all the Lollipop roms that I have tried are unable to detect OTG USB drives or output audio via USB... or both. Is this by design from Google? If so, I will have no choice but to remain with KK 444 LiquidSmooth.
My SanDisk dual usb stick works fine for otg

CM12.1 or Stock Marshmallow for Nexus 6?

I'm currently thinking about switching to Marshmallow on my Motorola Nexus 6, but I'm not quite sure what CM12.1 can that Stock Marshmallow isn't capable of. So which features are in CM12.1 that have not yet been implemented in Marshmallow?
I can think of these:
- CM Theme Engine
- Native USB-OTG support (for mounting drives)
(no Xposed on Marshmallow yet)
CM Theme Engine is dying, say goodbye to it. Layers is the new kid on the block and stock marshmallow supports it out of the box. Same goes for otg, stock Android has supported it for a while.

[Completed] Android for an unknown tablet?

Hello everyone, my girlfriend has a Siragon tablet (local brand here in Venezuela) that is about 2 years old, seller stopped updates for all of its Android tablets but I'mm sure this tablet can handle either 5 or 6 (it's in Jelly beans right now).
However, since this is an unknown maker outside of VE, there are no roms for their products, I tried to see if I could install CM 13 and pray it worked but Recovery mode wont allow me since the rom is for Nexus 7 WIFI (flo) and the tablet is wing-s785 (???)
Any way I could force the install of CM 13 on this tablet or if there is any kind of universal stock Android to install? Or am I stuck with Jelly Beans?

Hello dear,
You can't use ROMs from other devices, because of different kernel and ROM configurations. If they stopped support for it,that is already done yet, sorry for this kind of information. :/
Thank you for visiting xda assist forum.
