Wifi Crash, Media Crash, Settings "Storage" Crash
Hey guys, I'm on PA 4.6 BETA5, when I flash the aosp or franko kernel (after going back to stock kernel before flashing the new one) my Wifi won't enable, android.something.media crashes and in the settings app, when I tap storage the app crashes...any way to solve this problem or an alternative? Thanks!
PS: I'm really sorry if this was asked before, I read the hole last 10 sites of the forum and didnt found anythings related to my problem, "just" 10 sites because I think its related to 4.4.4 and maybe PA.

There are custom kernels (unleased kernel series, Hells Doctor, Hellscore, ...) which supports OTG and also supports Lolipop.
Stock Lollipop

mm okey! so, have you test Hells Doctor on Lollipop? I will try out it this afternoon. I'm running a 4.3 stock perfectly with the otg, but Lollipop look like so excited.
Lollipop

How does one "Simply install the zip in recovery"?
My screen is broken (just the touch; everything is still visible). I was hoping I could install this mod without being able to touch the lower half of my screen so that I could plug in a mouse so that I could copy some files off my device.
I can reboot into recovery mode, but USB debugging is *not* enabled. I've never used "adb" on this device before (I just says "offline" when I try to run it from my PC).
I have no idea how to "install a zip".
Phone is an Nexus 4, running android 4.something.

Thanks,
Is the OP willing to develop the patch for lollipop too? Or is there any nice kernel with USB host support?
nexus 4 lolipop 5.0.1 and xbox wireless gamepad
Hello. I want use xbox360 wireless gamepad on my nexus 4 lolipop 5.0.1. I think first I need kernel with OTG support. What kernel I can download on 5.0.1 android? I need y-cable for receiver of xbox360. what about mouses and keyboards they also need y-cable?
What can be the problem, why OTG still doesn't work
Hey guys,
however I'm completely new to this stuff, I managed to get through every barriers, and I put Cyanogenmod 11 snapshot M12 on my Nexus 4 and after that flashed the suggested kernel and patch successfully to try out OTG. The phone works withput problem, the installations seem to be successful, therefore I tried to connect an external storage to the phone to check if OTG works on it.
For that, I used a SIMPLE OTG cable like this:
<<<LINK CANNOT BE SHOWN SINCE I AM NEW TO THE FORUM - picture is the second picture of the first post in this thread>>>
connected to an Y-cable SIMILAR to this:
<<<NO LINK AGAIN - the 3rd picture of the first post in this thread>>>
The difference from the one on the picture is that mine has a male mini USB end instead of a female normal USB end as in the picture. My cable is the cable of an external wichester otherwise.
So, I tried with this cable setup, the result was that both the phone and the connected storage received electricity from the external power source, but the storage was not detected by the phone. I had a feeling that it doesn't get enogh power, so I attached it to a USB phone charger just to be sure, but the situation remained the same: the light on the storage was green, which means it is charging, the light on the phone was also on, but the storage was not detected.
My question is if I should try with the exact same cable set that can be found in the first post of this thread on the first picture or mine also should do the job, and there should be still some software related problem?
Please also tell me if you need more information on this to answer it, however I tried to be specific.
Thank you for your help in advance.
Hello. What i can do on lolipop? There is no solution? I have a 32gb flash drive, y-otg cable, standart power adapter micro-usb-male. Rooted nexus4
Which zip I need to download?
Hi, i'm really beggining on Android stuffs, since I didnt had one until the last week, so I'm really in doubt about which one of the zip files i need to install in my system to make the OTG cable work properly.
Once I downloaded a random ziddley zip on the internet and when I installed it in recovery mode, i needed to reinstall the android system on my phone, since the phone wont boot anymore.
So, can anyone help me? I'm sharing in this post a screenshot of the Android Version screen on the settings. I've rooted my phone using the King Root app
Considering that my android version is 4.4.4, I consider that I may download one of the following:
4.4.x: 2013.12.11 1604ET: [fk r199] [fk r199-CM]
4.4.x: 2013.12.06 1445ET: [aosp r7]
But which one?
And just another noob question. Is this the right way to install the ziddley zip on my phone?

Sorry for the noob questions and thanks to anyone who helps, because I REALLY need the otg cable to work, so I can develop some things using the XBOX 360 cable!

i think i was reading somewhere that it doesnt support it, but im not sure, however, P8 supports it so there is a big chance that it will work, otg adapter cost me about 1,50€ so you can try it

Did you get OTG working on TWRP ? which Andriod Version and TWRP version do you have .
If possible share the links .
Actually we are trying to get OTG working but cant get succeed and also can you share some screen shots?
If you have rooted your device and have some experience on editing build prop then following the guide from https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/how-to-enable-otg-multi-window-eye-t3594001 and check whether you got any success
PS: Don't copy paste type them manually.
Works on Android 6?

Your phone is P8 lite?
Some times ago,developers find a way to activate otg feature on marshmallow but that way doesn't work on nougat.dears please help to solve this problem and active otg on nougat.
I was about to post this. I also want to know if there is any progress on OTG for Nougat?
Even I corrected the target of plugusb file in «otg on» file,but it doesn't work.
Where is all devolpers ?
Hi.
I've just tested my Chord Mojo with MM OTG and the sound is full of pops and ticks. I then tested it on my 2013 Moto X and the sound was fine, so even with the kernel mod OTG is not as it should be on our P9 Lite.
I think I will flash Nougat and then look for a new phone that can do OTG natively.
Shame as I think the P9 Lite is a great phone and I got it for a steal as well.
So its back to the drawing board.
