I use the USB OTG cable to mount USB flash drives on the Galaxy S II, no problem. I tried putting a micro-SD card in a USB adapter and mounting that via OTG, but the micro-SD card is never recognized. I get no notice of media scanner running, etc. Yet, this same USB/micro-SD combo works fine in my laptop. Any suggestions how to get it to work with the SGS2?
Actually, this worked with a different, better quality USB-microUSB adapter.
can someone confirm that samsung galaxy s3 tab sm-T80N support usb otg, I can't find any info about usb otg , manual says usb-c port charging / accessories , I don't have usb -c to micro usb adapter to try it, I do have micro usb2 otg cable which work fine on samsung galaxy s5, I use otg for usb devices like usb flash drives, usb midi keyboards, usb audio cards for recording audio
thank you
I tested with a mouse, which worked fine. I'll test flash drive later.
[edit]
Just tested flash drive.
Worked quite well.

which adapter do you use ucb-c to micro usb b or just plain usb-c to usb A, or usb c to usb A with otg support, or usb- c to usb micro b female with otg
thank you
I use this one:
iXCC USB Type C to USB 3.0 Type A Adapter, Charge and Sync Cable, On The Go (OTG Host Cable) for Type-C Supported Devices (6 Inch) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017TJN22C/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_EEE6oG3Taotv8
I have a USB C adapter connected to a Samsung OTG cable, but the tab S3 is not picking it up. The OTG cable works well on my Note 5. Is there a solution to it? Thanks
What are you trying to connect to your Tab S3? A hard drive?
I just tried a USB C flash drive on my Tab S3 and it works properly. OTG capability should be there.

I am using the Xiaomi USB Type-C to Micro USB adapter with a Samsung OTG cable. I use that Samsung OTG cable on my Note 5 to connect a thumb drive or a card reader and it works fine. Does that mean it is the USB Type-C to Micro USB adapter itself that must be OTG for it to work?
The Xiaomi USB Type C to Micro could be the culprit. Maybe it is used for charging only?
Yes, you are correct, it is for charging and connection to a PC and having an OTG cable on top does not seem to work. I have ordered a proper USB C OTG adapter online, it should arrive next week and I hope it works. Thanks for your response. Cheers.
I'm pretty sure Nokia 7+ supports OTG.
I have an Aukey USB 3.0 A to C adapter into which I've plugged an Anker USB 3. 0 card reader. The phone does not recognise this as storage. Should it and, if so, what am I doing wrong, please?
maybe your reader don't support OTG mode? i have https://www.kingston.com/en/flash/readers/fcr-ml3c and working fine without any settings or 3rd apps...
after put is USB, in status bar i see usb icon, in notification i see "USB Drive" with buttons Explore and Eject, after click on Explore a see files on microSD in USB reader and mp3 from it is played ok...
Card Reader

Thanks. That's very helpful. How does one establish if a reader supports OTG? I need an SD card reader so can I assume the fcr-mlg4 will also work?
now i noticed, then you write about separate USB-A->C adapter and USB-A card reader... then i think not be problem with card reader (this not need support OTG if used with (right/working) OTG cable/adapter), but with your USB-A->C adapter, maybe not support OTG or is broken... can you try in this adapter put another USB Flash? and put in N7+ (after USB Flash putted to adapter)

then i think aukey adapter not suport OTG and is only for use with PC/Apple with USB-C conector... try buy another adapter, i don't post link to ebay because i don't know if adapter for $1 from china with OTG in description really have OTG support or is mistake/lying... try buy some from your local/country_eshop store with verifing with on vendor site or with shop support that is really with OTG... i see on me country eshop for example "Akasa AK-CBUB25-15BK" and vendor say is have OTG support, but sure you find also another...
edit: sorry i write akasa model with microUSB, this is with USB-C "Akasa AK-CBUB30-15BK"
http://www.akasa.com.tw/search.php?seed=AK-CBUB30-15BK
for this vendor not say OTG support, but have photo with phone/tablet, then i think OTG supported (and in description in me country eshop in description is OTG support)
OTG
Thanks k3dar7.
It had never occurred to me that a USB-C to USB-A adapter wouldn't have OTG support. I've ordered one from Amazon that, hopefully, will do the trick.
Many thanks for your help.

Just received AUKEY USB C Adapter to USB A ( 2 Pack ) with OTG USB Type C Converter https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B074K38QC7/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 from Amazon and it works perfectly with OTG. I'm now very happy, thanks!
Hi gurus, just got this phone.....happily wanted to transfer all my music and movie files to ROG phone using OTG, but phone unable to detect the sd card !
tried using OTG dongle, sd card reader, even connect ROG phone to another type C phone using the original cable provided.....all failed.
emailed to Asus asking them, replied to me saying this phone does not support OTG !!!
WTF?!!
any gurus here tried connecting the OTG successfully??
I am using china otg from Oukitel mobile - I only had to buy USB-C reduction. Everything works perfectly
I'm using a 128GB USB 3.0 stick even formatted with NTFS via a USB-A to USB-C adapter without problems. Haven't tried it with an SD card reader as I don't own one.
Provided cable is optimized for charging only. You will need to find a data cable and use the side port, not the bottom port.
