Hello. My phone is Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo (GT-I9301I) with custom ROM installed on it (CyanogenMod 12). today I bought and USB OTG cable (Y type). I connected it to the power source, then plug the usb flash memory to the port and then I inserted the micro usb plug in my phone. And nothing happend (no notification on the status bar, nothing in file explorer). Any ideas how to fix this?
Link to ROM I installed:

But thats ridicolous. There are some videos on YT thats shows S3 neo working with mouse, keyboard, usb and even PS3 controller. Like this for example: www . youtube . com / watch?v=GQkBr78kF2k
Next, the original Samsung Galaxy S3 was reported to be supporting OTG so why the upgraded version shouldn't support it as well?
Maybe that's just a kernel issue. I haven't tried it on stock ROM but maybe I will be desperate enough to do it
Anyway thanks for your reply. For a moment I thought no one will ever look at this thread.

To make otg work yu need otg y cable and a power supply and yes otg is kernel related i hope it helps
I guess I should do it earlier but here is the pic of USB Y cable I was using. It is good? I'm not sure anymore I got in form a electronic store and they told me its an OTG cable.

If that's true then why the kernel with OTG function wasn't released?

BartT-GSM said: hmm... i would like to connect pendrive to Nexus S and transfer data between them Click to expand... Click to collapse to my knowledge, the Android OS does not have USB host drivers in the kernel. So to answer the question, no android based phone would allow this. Also keep in mind that Power will be needed to drive the USB device, and the phone for sure won't provide that. So you would be looking at creating an power injector for the USB cable. You might be able to pay/convince a developer to do this for you in a custom kernel, but that's about it. I did find this where it was done with an HTC hero.. you might be able to work off of that work. http://adq.livejournal.com/95689.html

[ATTEMPT] Enable USB OTG host mode
I'm working on USB host support on our i9000. With the help of Galaxy Player kernel sources I think we manage to do this. Galaxy Player DOES support USB OTG host mode and is almost identical to our Galaxy S, the main difference is lack of GSM/CDMA module. Same CPU, same USB switcher (FSA9480) etc. Kernel sources looks promissing. You may say that i9000 is not able to provide power to power the device, but we can use self powered USB hub to do that Look at the sources: SAMSUNG OPEN SOURCE RELEASE CENTER -> Mobile -> MP3 Player & Etc. -> YP-GB1
What a great news! Following with interest!
Since this is not yet development, I will move it to general. As soon as you have something ready, you can open a new thread in the development subforum or ask me to move the existing one. Cheers
Awesome news...!!!

you give us a good information but you link is for the galaxy note, no for the galaxy s. so much things can be variable from device to one other even if they come from the same brand "processeur,usb, drivers..." Wait and see for this project is very usefull to use usb host

Search before asking. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_On-The-Go Right there, first line: "USB On-The-Go, often abbreviated USB OTG, is a specification that allows USB devices such as digital audio players or mobile phones to act as a host allowing a USB flash drive, mouse, or keyboard to be attached."

Please help !... Click to expand... Click to collapse as said in the previous reply to your question nexus 4 requires Y otg cable. the reason is that nexus 4 hardware does not support powering devices via usb so you need a y cable to power your usb externally
You just need to flash a custom kernel you can try this ONE It has otg support and works on cm 11 and android L
I flashed that custom kernel , and there is an option for otg which i have enabled but nothing comes up when i plug in the external memory. I dont think there is a difference between using simple microusb external memory and a regular usb external memory conected via y cable. Please help me fix it ! , i really need that otg.!
Two posts above yours. You need a Y otg cable and external power source for your usb

Limited - it will not work with every USB stick, seems random for me - two of mine are working, other two not.
It seems USB 3.0 not supported.
