[Q] [Ques] USB peripheral accessories on OTG enabled N4 (with external power supply) - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently flashed hellscore b45 kk and @justvarshney's kernel patch for enabling OTG host. I can now successfully connect pendrive to N4
Then I tried connecting Keyboard and mouse to the phone. Ideally it should start up, or I should be able to use keyboard in textboxes. but Nothing happens.
I would appreciate any help in connecting and using USB accessories like keyboard, mouse etc to OTG enabled Nexus 4

I can't guess roots of problem. But I personally have tried keyboards mouses joystick with very same justvarshney kernel. They worked great even through à hub connected simultaneously with a flash drive. Might be try a clean ROM and check...

[Q] USB Peripherals not recognized by Tab 4 7.0

Anyone else having this issue? My Tab 4 7.0 does not recognize any peripheral plugged into it using the OTG cable. I've tried a mouse, keyboard and both a powered external HDD and unpowered usb thumb drive. These peripherals do work with my Note 2 so I know it's not the cable.
Kernel limitation
Hi, I have a SM-T230 and I tried to plug flash drives and HD and nothing works. I think this is a kernel limitation and flash a new kernel will resolve this problem, but I dont know which kernel is compatible.
I think a custom kernel on the 7.0 is impossible, it has what is suspected a combination recovery/kernel, as found by chainfire

Otg on chroma 5.1.1

Hi everyone, I have been reading for like 2 weeks on how to get my USB otg to work, I have chroma 5.1.1 ROM and quatra v6, I had hellscore but of wasn't working either. I have the y cable and I have tried it with my battery bank supplying power and also with my charging cable. I have stick mount installed. Nothing is working, am I missing something?
I am not familiar with quatra v6, is there a setting in trickster related to OTG that you may need to enable that you missed? How about swapping USB drives and trying another one? Perhaps switch to Franco kernel and try OTG on that? I doubt it is the cable or power supply's fault, but maybe you should try switching out the cable or power supply for another one. Good luck.
Thanks for the advice, unfortunately it didn't help, I'm still working on it

USB OTG not working

Hi,
USB OTG on my Verizon Droid Turbo 2 with Android 6.0 is not working with any USB device I've tried including mouse, keyboard, or thumb drive. The DT2 doesn't respond nor even appear to supply power to any of the devices I attach.
The DT2 Micro-USB otherwise works for charging and connecting to my PC. I've tried multiple cables listed on Amazon as "(10-Pack) BuyCheapCables 6" Micro-USB OTG (On The Go) to USB 2.0 Adapter Cable" that have worked well for me in the past.
I ran the app USB OTG Checker from Google Play with USB OTG System Result = "Your Device OS has USB OTG API !" and USB OTG Signal Result = "System NOT Detect USB OTG Signal"
Frustratingly, youtube videos seem to show OTG success in similar scenarios. So, please any advice would be appreciated...
I'm having a related problem. Otg-usb works when phone is booted normally but when in recovery with TWRP 2.8.7.1 I try to back up my device, I see otg-usb, but can not select it as the target destination. It is formatted Fat32. I try to reformat it in TWRP and it can't write to the media. Get an error to that effect. Note5 MOAR Rom 5.1.

My issue seems hardware related in that any USB device I try to connect gets no response or power from the phone.
I spoke to a few sources on this and most helpfully went to my local VZ and tried on another DT2. Looks to have worked and I'm hoping the new DT2 they're sending me will solve it. A Samsung S7 also worked.

(Q) Nexus 4 OTG

Good day everyone, I would like to ask why my phone does not support OTG. I need your suggestions.
First my nexus 4 runs on Paranoid Android Rom v5.1 with quanta kernel v18. I also made my own otg y cable by connecting the red and black wires. I tried to use otg but my phone does not connect to my flash drive. When I connect it, the phone charges and the flash drive blinks its led light so it means that my wiring is Ok. What could be the problem?
You need to use Stickmount.

Need OTG + Power Rom

Hello,
i am desperatley in need of a ROM for the 2012 Nexus that supports USB UTG and Charging.
I would be thankfull for every Info with a working Download-Link to a ROM.
Thanks!
I need it too. And I'd like to have undervolting feature. But looks like you should find ROM by yourself and then flash kernel with OTG+power
FWIW I flashed my 2012 N7 with LN14.1 build 20180625-UNOFFICIAL, OTG and charging work fine, however MTP connectivity to Win PC only works when the N7 is booted into TWRP recovery.
See https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7/development/rom-lineageos-14-1-nexus-7-2012-t3530261 for download and installation info.
I am also looking for a way to use a music player from usb/powered usb hub/fat32 60G card in dash car mount.
