[Q] Can't get OTG to wok on NEXUS 4
I've flashed stock Kitkat and Installed Ziddey's custom kernel, got an OTG cable and made a Y USB cable, doesn't work =/ the only thing that happens is the phone charges.
The OTG cable is working just fine with the dok i tried to connect, I checked both on another device, the only thing I did to the stock android is installing the kernel.
I've also downloaded an app to check if OTG is enabled on my device and the result is positive.
Seems like the only thing I could have messed up is the Y cable, but it pretty simple- connect the wires to their matching color and isolate.
Please help me figure this one out, and if someone can post this on Ziddey's Thread I'd be grateful :silly:

Hey all,
I recently got a set up to get my HDD contected to my note. (with y cable for power suply) However when i plug it in it just says usb connecter connected and after a few seconds it tells me that mass storage is savely removed? this happens while the cable is still plugged in and im just waiting without touching any cable etc. Any idea what could cause this problem?

I had read about this somewhere. Cant remember.
I think its an issue with the driver. Just to confirm try another PC.
Or else the usb port or cable is screwed.
Hey thanks for responding . A pc isn't the problem. I'm currently one step further which is that the note 10.1 does see that a usb device is connected but doesn't recognize it as a mass storage device. Any ideas what could solve this?

I'm not using a stock rom though...
I'm not on stock and I had to use a USB OTG app to mount my drive. I used USB OTG Helper but there are others out there that work too.
Will try that but in case it doesn't, what rom are you using?
Thanks again

I'm not sure if my drive is NTFS or exFAT, that might make a difference. I'm also using a powered USB hub but have been able to mount the drives using the USB OTG helper app that I mentioned. USB seems flaky to me tough... sometimes it works without a hitch, sometimes I have to mess around to get things to connect properly.

I was connecting fine over USB before installing AR and now it reboots the tablet whenever connected to the computer. Strange issue. And a frustrating one because I like to use USB a lot for transferring music and other files.
Installed AR 8.0 because from the description it sounded very "stock" but runs a lot better. It appears it isn't as stock as I had hoped.

thanks. connected fine for me on stock, too.
thankfully, the issue resolved after flashing darkman's compatibility pack 8.0. you should try rooting...
Hello, I'm a new OPO owner and right now I'm on latest stock rooted CM11S. I love the phone and I was wondering if the Powered USB OTG cables (to charge the phone while using an USB device) work, and if they do, the stock CM kernel is enough or a custom one is needed.
Example of one such cable.
All the threads about it on the OPO forums are very inconclusive so I thought it was best to ask here.
Hi, I've created a Y cable by connecting Red n Black of an OTG cable to a micro usb cable. However only one works at time. I.e if i connect the charger first then OTG wont work and if i connect the OTG first then the phone won't charge.. I am on stock 5.0.2 soak and unlocked & unrooted. I guess the stock kernel doesn't support.
Hi, i have a strange problem..
When i plug in a gamepad through otg cable, it works only for 2-3 minutes.. Then my gamepad stops working, and i must reboot my s6 because pc doesn't see it.. Only charging is working. Tried a 2 otg cables, same issue..
Any ideas?
(Sorry for my bad english)

Have you tried a different game pad to rule that out, might not play nicely with the s6

Are you rooted or completely stock. You have 2 or 3 options I think. To rule out anything hardware related, if you have root do wipe in twrp/cwm dalvik and cache, if that doesn't work reinstall rom, I that still doesn't work then flash a clean firmware through odin. Before doing any of that try a different otg cable.
So.. i do FULL wipe, reflashed my rom, and... nothing. Tried 2 different OTG cables.

The only other thing is to do a firmware flash through odin, if it still doesn't work then it points to some sort of hardware issue.
Ok so flashing firmware didn't work. I'll buy a new OTG cable and check it again, if won't work i need to replace a part of my s6 where is micro usb port.. :/
Hi, I have a problem here, I bough a very, VERY cheap D820 to a guy I met a few days ago, he told me that he was trying to root the phone and he somehow bricked it so he was selling it half priced, anyway, the problem is that I cannot get the phone to be recognized by any PC running Windows OS or Linux based OS. Linux does nothing at all, and windows says "Unknown Device" every time I connect the device.
I downloaded Google drivers, Android SDK Drivers, Universal Naked Drivers and had no luck at all, windows says the best fitting driver is installed allready (Unknown Device). Also there's no OTG detection either. I can only charge the phone but there's no data transfer of any kind, I've even tried with different usb cables with no luck.
I noticed that the device have installed TWRP 3.0.2-0, the OS instaled was Official 4.4.2 and there wasn't any SMS app installed, not even Google Play or any file explorer app so I went to my other phone, downloaded NitrogenOS along with Pico GAPPS, did a full wipe (DATA, DALVIK, CACHE, SYSTEM) and flashed the ROM and GAPPS. The phone booted just fine, there's no issue with the OS, WiFi works very well, also LTE and H+, bluetooth, I mean everything, yet, the problem persist, I cannot get the device to be recognized by any PC.
Can anyone help me? I don't know what to do next.
PS: I can access bootloader and recovery without any issue yet, adb and fastboot doesn't recognize the device even with debugging turned on.
Sounds like the USB flex cable in the phone is damaged.
Tried different USB cables and USB ports?

Yeah, I tried 4 different fully working USB cables (tested them on my Motorola Moto G xt1032), I think the micro USB port on the Nexus its ok because I can charge the phone normally without any problem at all, the issue comes when I try to connect the device to any PC or OTG adapter to transfer files and such.

I believe It's possible that the phone USB flex cable is damaged even though it charges but will not transfer data.
Agree, most likely the USB port. Not a difficult or expensive part to replace.
