Good news for galaxy tab 2 users, both p3100 and p3113. I found an OTG cable which is working like charm and its very cheap too.
I bought this from ebay= http://www.ebay.com/itm/30070135874...NX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_875wt_1063
This includes
OTG Cable
Normal Data Cable
Damn Cheap and fast shipping
My p3100 (Indian) is running on stock firmware, i only tried pen drive and its working awesome.
I dont know about custom rom , but i am sure custom rom will let me do more with my OTG Cable.
Update: Pen Drive Working on stock rooted rom too, Screenshot attached
You mean the same one that I mentioned on page 2 of this thread. Any reason we have 2-3 threads for OTG cables?
@imnuts
I am trying to keep a clean thread for OTG , that are 100% tested. For all Tab 2 Models.

Will that also work on the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 ? what about the ones for the original 10.1 ?
You can get one from deal extreme 2.9 including worldwide free shipping I believe.

could the tab recognize nrfs format or need fat32 ?
or what is the format option that we have to do for flash drives to be recognized by tabs by using this otg cable ?

The dock connector got stuck in my GalaxyTab 2, 7 with this cable you recommended. I pulled it out with some tweezers and superglued it back and now I works ok. It still feels pretty snug in there compared to the usb cable the Tab came with. I will be ordering a different one just to be on the safe side.
Really?

Can anyone confirm if the USB host feature works with the Galaxy S3.
Specifically, I'm interested in attaching a USB Keyboard to the device.
After upgrading from honeycomb to ICS on my wife's Galaxy S2 I found that the USB Host function no longer works and I can no longer connect a USB keyboard. (It used to work rather well).
After checking the XDA forums I see that I must root the phone and use another kernel which I'd rather not do given that the S2 is not my phone.
I'll be picking up the Galaxy S3 once the Blue-32gb arrives here in Taiwan so I'm also wondering if anyone can say whether or not the USB Host function works and if anyone has tried out a USB keyboard.
Any advice would be swell
Thanks

Thanks for the reply.
After upgrading to ICS on my wife's S2 the phone continues to read USB Flash drives just fine, but it could not (cannot) read any other devices including USB Keyboards or a USB Mouse.
I want to be able to use my fold-able ASUS USB Keyboard to type documents on the G3 and from what I've seen, the screen is plenty big to be able to make my dream of 'ultra-portable' document typing a reality.
This, plus the fact that I haven't found any fold-able Blue Tooth keyboard that seems to work very well with the S2.

Check this video, as stated in another thread
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SOcHFC3MnI&feature=player_embedded
I made my own usb host cable and everything I have tried is working. Wireless keyboard and mouse, memory stick, external harddrive, ps3 controller etc.
I just ordered my USB OTG Cable today. For those that don't know what it means, it stands for USB On-The-Go. Basically, it allows you to read files from a portable flash drive straight from your phone. This will only work with a compatable kernel and since we have an ICS Source the developers said it was already enabled within the kernel.
This will be my first time to have ever used one and I was just wondering the pros and cons of having something like this.
I need some feed back~~
well from my POV these are my pros and cons...
PROS:
Extra space (whatever you can get that hooks up to usb, 2tb!!)
CONS:
Lugging around the extra crap
You have a good con list ziggy46..lol
I was concerned about that as well. But I have a 500gb portable external hard drive and it has tons of crap that I can probably watch or listen to on my phone. I can't shove everything on my 32gb sdcard. My 1T sits on my desk for my wife's photography thing she does.
My friend has an OTG cable and he uses his usb mouse to control his phone.
It's pretty cool but really gimmicky.
Hmmm...interesting. Thanks for the tip
if your otg cable works out good for you let us know. i might buy one and get a 2tb usb hdd.
btw, if things are fomatted in NTFS you might need to make a script for them to mount to the phone...
HTC doesn't support USB OTG in general. It will require a kernel hack. It didn't work in GB. I am not sure about ICS.
From what kozmick mentioned in his kernel thread it was enabled in the kernel. Im hoping it works if not then I hope it works on the N7 or my wife's SGS2.

I still have my OTG cable from my Nokia N8. I wonder if it will work..
Normally USB otg won't work on an HTC device. According to faux its something about the USB stack.
Ok. So I FINALLY got my USB-OTG Cable and even with the enabeled kernel it does not work. Kinda bummed but the part was cheap so its not a major loss. It works on ky wife's SGS2 and I read that it will work on the Idolian tablet I just ordered so I'm cool with that. I'll try and sell the other 3 that I won't need.

It was able to power it just fine. I was just using a 2GB flash drive to test and you can see the led light come on. Not sure how well it could keep the charge up tho.

Hi guys, I got an oem MHL to hdmi cable from eBay, one specifically for the galaxy s3.
I received it today and while the phone seems to detect it's attached to a screen (audio set to hdmi out, landscape mode), the two devices I can connect it to both register nothing connected.
Is there something missing? The first device is a monitor using a hdmi to dvi adapter, the second is a 720p tv with hdmi in. The tv allows me to select the hdmi it's plugged into but says there's no signal.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Are you powering the device from another USB port.
All MHL adapters and cables for the Galaxy S2/3 need to be powered by an external USB port.

Recently google said OTG isnt supported on the nexus 4 device
So curiosity has got the better of me and I've requested for people to test a few things, this is a development thread created for USB OTG and getting it to work.
What we know:
The snapdragon s4 soc support otg (running all the time reads mdm as usb device)
Slimport support OTG
kernel supports OTG
Unsure about ROM
This is created from my mobile device, when i receive net access ill update this more
Kernel i built 2 weeks ago or so, supports OTG
If anyone with an OTG Cable can test and provide both logcat and dmesg when plugging in a device, to make it easier would prefer ps3 controller connecting. Ontop of that do 2 tests 1 without supplying power and 1 with supplying power.
Newer kernel http://d-h.st/o0O
Installation ZIP, http://d-h.st/o0O
Works on any ROM
Remember to modify build.prop and add ro.usb_host=1
Think ive just figured it out new kernel will be uploaded & mod lets hope it works need testers
Ill test the kernel to make sure its good and boots fine then ill drop the kernel, but i can only test to a certain extent i dont own an OTG Cable, also youll need to modify @ ROM level

Pay attention. He asked for testers to supply their own power as well. If a setup with external power is useful for even one person and he gets it working, then this has served a purpose.

Yes, OTG was disabled by Google during developement because they found out it couldn't supply 5V

I believe in the general complaint thread about no OTG someone spoke of a phone that wasn't able to supply 5V either, but it was infact doable after some modifications(software ones), so it may very well be that similar modifications here could work
Somethings funny
Cause if google advertised the device as USBOTG supported, then theyve setup the kernel for usbotg enabled, theyre saying the issue is no 5v, wouldnt supplying power bring USBOTG back? It isnt, so obviously it was taken away on purpose. If we can get around this and get USBOTG working is theee question.

I think any generic one will work. I was interested in them as well and I found this youtube video reviewing one:

I think as long as the phone supports USB OTG they'll all work fine.
You mentioned modding and I assume that means flashing in recovery? I'm not sure if recovery will be able to pick up the USB OTG Card reader though.

I have used twrp before on my m8 and I recall it had an option to use the otg. The twrp build for nexus doesnt have this?
Well I guess theres no reason to suspect it won't be available for the Nexus. Having said that, I've also only just ordered the N6 and its been a while since I've flashed anything.

I too have a generic and it works fine. Try this for twrp. Plug in the otg before u shut it off and then reboot to twrp. Should work ifbit doesn't while in twrp reboot back into recovery and then it should recognize it.

I've tried all different variations. Nothing works. It never reads it. It's no biggie. It was a little more than a dollar on Amazon so it's no loss. I just wanna get one to put the 128GB to use. I loaded it up with movies & such but haven't been able to use it.

I ordered a meenova which will be here today. Check that out. I believe it supports 128GB cards also. Get the computer adapter also. Works great.

Looks good but I don't have a 128GB card. I have a flash drive. Maybe that's the problem? The otg cable I have has the micro usb on one end for the phone & the female usb on the other end. Does the phone only support cards & adapters?
