USB On The Go (OTG) - discussion OTG Technology Description
In our age, the age of technology, any information generally stored in electronic form, whether it be text files, photos, music, movies, ID As a general rule subject to storage acts usb flash drive. But for its use need a device with usb port, such as a computer, which is not always the case at hand, as opposed to the phone / smartphone / tablet, etc .. So how do you connect a USB flash drive and other devices (mouse, keyboard, joystick, printer, etc.) to our cellphone / smartphone / tablet etc. This will help us otg cable. What is the OTG?
USB OTG (On-The-Go) is a further expansion of the USB 2.0 specification, designed to easily connect USB peripherals to each other without the need to connect to a PC. For example, to models of smartphones and phones that support USB OTG, you can connect some USB devices. Usually, these are flash drives, keyboards, mice, and other devices that do not require additional drivers.
Pinout and pin assignment
The first contact is power supply +5 Volt. Together with GND, it provides power for the device to be connected (flash drives, memory cards, etc.)
The second contact is Data-.
The third contact is Data +.
The fourth contact is an OTG contact. It closes with GND to transfer the smartphone / (any device supporting OTG with a similar pinout) to the host mode - supply to the voltage connector.
The fifth contact is the GND (Ground) contact.
Theme Assignment
Not all devices support OTG and, as a rule, support is not indicated in the specifications, so I created this topic. The topic will be a list of regular phones and smartphones that support this feature or do not support it.
Since there are a lot of phones and smartphones and I am not able to give a complete list due to the lack of information about support, let's do this: you answer the questions by numbering the list like mine:- Mark your device (fully).
- Does OTG work? (Yes it works, no it does not work). The phone is supplied with additional power or it works without additional power (i.e., you simply connect the OTG cable to the smartphone, or you have a Y-cable, the third end of which you connect to the power supply (computer port, external battery, USB hub that is connected power supply, etc.).
- The version of android with which you work OTG, or vice versa - does not work.
- What firmware do you have on your smartphone factory (stock) or third-party (custom)?
- The name and version of the kernel with which OTG works / does not work. Kernel stock or custom?
You can also write that I managed to connect via OTG: a USB flash drive (specify the file system), a mouse, a gamepad, etc. Upload photos, videos, descriptions, etc.
Next, a list will be compiled, which will be constantly updated. Please do not stand aside and help in the common cause. Answer the question from me +: happy: and: thank_you:
P.s .: if you notice that the model declared under the spoiler "Yes" does not support otg, please inform.

On most models with OC android supporting OTG, an android version 4.x.x is installed with a kernel version 3.x.x (versions can be viewed in the settings). But it happens that even with these characteristics there is no OTG support, therefore, if this function is important to you, then it is better to check its availability before purchasing.
