my english is bad

OTG is not supported out of the box by the SGS.
There are workarounds that needs a custom Kernel. and a cable that'll use an external power source. I haven't tried them though. Try looking for threads in the development section.

I want to use OTG without external power. I could not find kernel support without an external power

there is no way to connect usb without external power source

exaclty...no way...you need a usb hub or a y usb cable (2 males and 1 female) connect 1 male to your otg the other to a power source (usb charger) and the usb device (usb mass storage, controller,whatever) goes into the female.
You also need the free app "usb host controller" and a kernel that supports host functions (semaphore for example)

Googler's idea for implementing USB Mass Storage on N7 without rooting

Brian Swetland proposes this app idea for USB Mass Storage on the N7, even without rooting. Thoughts from the devs?
More links and discussion on his G+ post. Excuse the hack job on the G+url, new member and such: plus[dot]google[dot]com/u/0/116035013937554489222/posts/KiqFpDpDWto

I see a some grumbling about the Nexus 7 (and Galaxy Nexus) not supporting USB Mass Storage devices (thumb drives, etc). Want to make some friends by writing a fun app? Use the USB Host APIs, implement USB Mass Storage (basicly SCSI over USB bulk -- pretty simple encapsulation), and FAT/FAT32 in a standard Android app and make it available via market. No need for "rooting" for this to work.

Exact name of our P970 MicroUSB cable

Hi all,
What's the exact name of our OB charging cable? I googled MicroUSB but the shape is rectangular like a standard USB and not the trapezoid shape of our P970 cable.
thanks for the help

Starting from the left.
1) Micro USB
2) Mini USB
3) USB B Out
4) USB A In
5) USB A out
Our phone uses MicroUSB.
EDIT: Not FireWire what was I thinking?!?
Thanks man. After I saw this first I stopped searching:
I now learned that the image is MicroUSB A and the one in our phone is MicroUSB B.
If you press hard enough, any cable will fit

Additionally a consistent hammer work will help the fitting process if plain pushing doesn't help

Droid 4 JB OTG?

Are we supposed to be able to use OTG on Jellybean? I am unable to use anything... I even installed the ICS module from the thread in the dev section, but to no avail..

I also was wondering this, I know it used to be that you needed to have a special cable that needed power.
Jumped back on stock and tried with my hd dock and I still am able to use mouse keyboard and flash drive.... I don't know what otg features you seek but I'll dig out my home made dock tomorrow and try... (just a homemade otg cable with a USB hub and power spliced into a cheep business card holder)

and it doesnt work
I'm guessing you have a y cable for that or a powered USB hub... external devices require power... if you don't that's why its not working...

Since USB spec is 5V. You will most likely not find a 12V usb one.
Your best bet is to simply hardwire a 12V-to-5V adapter. I used a standard USB cigarette adapter. I wired a female cigarette adapter internally, and taped the two together. I bought a large 4A one, to be able to supply enough power to the tablet, and other peripherals.

I have tried to connect Huawei Power-Fi E8221 through USB OTG but it doesn't recognise it just gives power to device
Personally I suggest you that you should buy small usb wifi adapter for your PC and share internet through it by using software like MyPublicWiFi
This feature you are asking is called Reverse Tethering. It is still under development AND requires root.
This so might help you.

Just buy USB mini wireless adapter.
It's only $4 and free shipping.
It can work as an AP access point and you can share you internet connection from desktop.
Plug it in and you are ready to go.
