Hello guys,
I was wondering if usb otg works on android one.
But as i tested with cable..it isnt working..
So i installed a 'usb otg checker' app from market.
The test gave me a positive result..that means the phone suppprts usb host mode.
But is disabled in kernel.
So my question is can usb otg mode be enabled WITHOUT rooting and changing kernel.
Cause i dont want to root my phone as am satisfied with the features i am getting and also waiting for official android update.
Plz help me in this topic.. Otg check result attached in attachments.
Thank you.

Guys, I recently installed the PAC-man ROM, the problem is that when I connect a OTG 5 in 1 kit, it won't detect. Can someone help me?
I installed USB Host controller and it says that "S3C USB Host driver NOT found!". And also, I can not connect with my cellular data.
I need help regarding this.
Can I change the kernel so that I can use the OTG?
Hi all,
I searched all over and could not find anything similar...hence a new thread. Being a novice, I have recently got a nice Metropcs locked Huawei Vitria. It seems a popular device with positive reviews among the prepaid community.
Has any owners out there happened to try its USB OTG host capabilities? Mine does not work and when I tested with apps (OTG status, OTG host diagnostics, otg troubleshooter) all say it does not have the usb host driver support.
When I checked the device I noticed under system/etc/permissions a xml, android.hardware.usb.host.xml is misisng. I tried to copy and paste one into the Permissions folder but failed, saying it is read only.
Despite it takes microsd, it is just disappointing to see such updated device is crippled with otg. :crying:
Anybody knows if it is just os disabled? Is hardware OTG supportable? Anyway or workaround to make it work? Would a root help?
Anyone?

Can anyone tell me if modification in kernel will turn usb otg working or not.
I know that otg is supported by hardware.
But in a nexus 4 moded kernel usb otg is mentioned to be working, i tried installing that but somehow it wont install.
Hello, I got a samsung galaxy tab 2. I am very new to rotting and all that, i rooted the tablet using this guide and it has worked
droidviews.com/root-samsung-galaxy-tab-2-10-1-wifi-gt-p5110-on-android-4-1-1-jelly-bean-firmware/
I am trying to accomplish two things with it:
One- Getting the OTG to work with it. It didnt work straight away with the adapter and I have had little luck finding a soloution. THe app USB OTG checker says I have the usb otg api, but when i plug in a usb drive it dosent recognise it. I think i may have to install a "Kernal" to fix this but i don'y know how to find one that is compatible and will work. (I am doing this for my mum so she can use a usb drive and i dont want to brick it)
Two- this is the main goal, to get ethernet connectivity on the tablet, i think the otg will have to be fixed first but i am not sure. I cant get it to work and apps that enable the ethernet connectivity like:
google.com/store/apps/details?id=xda.usbhost.test&hl=en
Require some kernal. I have su and busybox installed already.
I have a samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 GT-P5110 with android version 4.1.1 and kernal version 3.0.31 - 523998
Thank you very much if you can help me
Hi
As far as I can see, OTG support is already present with your tablet.

The best way to check possibility of USB ethernet is to ask in Q/A section

The correct drivers are installed? Tried with different USB cables? Tried all USB ports on the computer?

The phone used to work with the same computer and USB cable?
If ur rooted install multirom and install cm13 as secondary os.. then connect to ur pc while ur in cm13 it will detect the driver after that unstall cm 13 and connect as u do normally
like if worked
hey i found away around it thx though!
How did you fix the problem?
"hey i found away around it thx though!"
But why in the name of all that's holy would you ask the question and then not share the answer for others who regularly have the same problem? Keeping info to yourself is the best way of maintaining your "zero thanks" status...
oh sorry for not sharing what i did to solve the problem! here is what i did!
1. connect phone to pc
2. unlock
3. swipe down and touch the notification that says "usb for charging touch for more options"
4. select the option you want
easy
