Hi everyone, i was just wondering why micro-usb host will only be compatible on some phone. i searched it on ebay and most of them is only compatible to certain phone models? are't they all the same?
and also, do we have to root the phone before we can actually use the micro usb host, such as pluggin it into a usb mouse, ext hard drive etc...
please help me to all technology master ...DX
I think it is about hardware not software

Well, USB OTG is a feature to enable your phone to access USB devices such as flash disk, mouse.
To use it you will need a USB OTG Cable a short microUSB to USB female.. Attach your USB there,,
If it still not work some devices might require externally powered OTG..
I'd connected my pen drive with moto g and there is no notification.... How can I externally power my pen drive?

I'm not in kit kat version.. Is it mandatory for OTG function?...
Actually OTG was broken in KK but in JB it was working. But they have fixed it now in 4.4.2 as i read.
How is your stick formatted?
