Sony Xperia L doesn´t support USB OTG in an official way
Screw around with some stuff and try to figure out how to develop USB Otg support. Or maybe ( if you're too lazy. ) request USB OTG in a popular ROM. Are you even unlocked or rooted? You just bought your Xperia but who knows?

Am rooted with motochopper and BL locked.
Yeah, I don't get how there is no support, will wait for 4.2.2 to see if support is added
Let see, hope they will add this.
looks like its not supported

Just noticed that the sp isnt listed. So maybe the list was made early this year.

Well , first you need to root your device then you install StickMount app by Chainfire in google play then when you insert pendrive then click on mount option over there then download File Manager by Rhythm Software in google play then at path :sdcard/" you will get a folder over there , enjoy now you can use otg on a non- supportable device

In my way. It'll never works if ROM doesn't supported it.
For example my nexus 7, using stock ROM rooted and installed Nexus Media Import(USB OTG Mount) didn't work. But while changed to Custom ROM that in Settings - Storage that available if u have USB-OTG for mounting it works. so Basically it will supported by ROM that have feature for USB-OTG Mounter.

didnt get stickmount app in playstore.
it was done for nexus 4, so i think can be done for XL too. however, you may need otg y cable to get 5v if device doesn't supply (like N4 users do)
usb otg
Hello, everybody.
I have discovered that with "USB OTG Helper" from Play Store
you can have OTG on Xperia L.
But Xperia L doesn`t give power to the stuff I´ve plugged in.
So I used a hub with external power supply and a wall outlet
adaptor to connect my pendrive and it works.
Hope I´ve helped you all.

Sorry, but i think no, because this is not only software thing, and i did't find any solution how to do this.
I mean there is only one solution, and that's, that you need to buy another.
I am sorry:crying:

I am using a USB OTG cable type b, works without a problem. Note that this was an official cable directly from Sony's support Center (got it for free when I called them) so no, we don't need an USB OTG cable type a.

I tried 2 different portable USB fat32 / NTFS (500GB) neither of them worked. I tested the fat32 with note 3 N900 and note 10.1 2014 both worked with no problems.
Help needed is it hardware or software issue ?
Test and feedback
Note Pro 12.2 owners pls test and advice.
If you are rooted, try installing Stickmount from the Play Store.

Rooting Will Void warranty so I need some body to test before I send it back for repair.
It's a permissions problem. Only way I could fix is root and use an app like stick Mount and folder Mount

Are you rooted?
Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 will not mount NTFS until SELinux is changed from Enforced to Permissive,this can only be done through Custom Kernel compiling.
I have managed to compile a custom Kernel and now I can change the tablet's SELinux from Enforcing to Permissive and vice versa and can also mount NTFS hard drives using Stickmount.
Those hard drives are available to any app that need to access them,like MX player or ES file explorer.
Please check the attached images

Finally both Mass storage devices worked with the help of external power supply ( used the wall charger ) but what a hell of wiring. I can't believe that note pro 12.2 can't generate enough power to do the job? maybe some developer can write custom kernel with the correct permission I HOPE.

What kind of otg cable are you using ? 5-pin or 10-pin? Because the 5 more pin of 10-pin otg cable delivers more power!

Hi guys, I just bought mu htc e8 today. And I'm just wondering whether it support USB OTG/USB HOST or not. From some websites (gsmarena etc) they said there is no usb otg for e8.
But I recently stumbled upon a video in youtube showing that e8 actually capable of supporting USB OTG. The guy tried it and found out that e8 recognized the usb flash drive, but when he tried to access it uaing es explorer, the app just forced close and the status says usb removed unexpectedly.
Have anyone tried it yet? And what's the finding?

For the dual sim version, I can say that it does support otg. Personally tried it, worked flawlessly!
