Works for me. Just need the paragon app for exfat and NTFS. Fat32 works out of the box.
Do I need any usb otg cable or just to connect usb stick?
You need a usb òtg cable
Using Total Commander, no problems.
No, for me doesnt works. I'll try with usb otg cable.

Does Droid 4 have Host USB capability? In Lapdock it should but what about other methods.
Theoretically Droid 3 didn't have HostUSB functionality, but when you did connect it to Lapdock or HD Dock with USB the ports were supported and there were even app for supporting flash drives. The only with ancestor was that USB didn't have power so you couldn't use cables that have microUSB/USB to connect devices.
droid 4 will do usb host with a few caveats.
It will only do fat32 formated flash drives.
you need to power the drive off another device.
basically you need a usb otg (micro male on one end, usb female on the other) and a usb hub that uses an ac adaptor. The hub with power cord provides the power for the device, and the OTG cable is for the data. This can also be achieved using a powered y cable in place of the hub, but you would need to have the power-only usb port plugged in to a power source.

Has anybody tried Remote Release with the Droid 4? It does Canon DSLR and normally works with Galaxy S2 and 3 without rooting.
Using a USB OTG cable I've connected my Canon DSLR but I had now joy unfortunately...it doesn't recognise anything. Also I've tried keyboard and mouse but that doesn't seem to be working either. Am I missing something

Thanks, I've seen this already. I guess what I was looking for is to understand whether everything OTG needs power or just things like keyboard/mouse/pendrive - things that actually consume it. TBH the DSLR camera itself is not actually being charged or anything, it is just DATA, so I was sort of hoping that I can avoid.
Out of all the devices i have tried all have needed external power... prior to the purchase of an HD docking station I just used a powered USB hub with an otg cable....

I think I've made an assumption that it would behave similar to my android tablet, just plug in the pendrive and it's all good. I have defo came across devices that don't need external power, especially for a camera that doesn't take power.

I can confirm this works.. Here is my setup :
Nexus 7 16gb
AndroidMe CM10 1.0 ROM
Motley #219 Kernel
Generic OTG cable from amazon...
Targus SD Card Reader
StickMount APP
I'M thinking about getting a nexus 7. Question about it's USB OTG capability: Can it connect to multiple things at once through a USB host? I am thinking the ultimate portable workplace would be a portable keyboard, mouse, a microSD reader, and a charging cable all coming from a single host. Is Android at the point where this sort of thing is possible yet?

No, currently you can connect to 1 slave usb device, maybe 2 with the use of an Y splitter cable, if at that. Am not sure if it's a software or hardware limitation.

With usb otg cable pluged in usb hub you can connect more devices.

You should know though that while using USB OTG (if i recall correctly) you are not able to charge the N7 at the same time. It is either one or the other.
While using OTG can charging if flash patched kernel.

Thats what I am gonna xo, as soon as my y- cable arrives.
I'm thinking of getting a Bluetooth keyboard

Is it possible to use MHL and OTG at the same time?

Try it and see, but I don't think so....not enough power (Let alone not enough micro usb ports on the phone)
Do you know any adapters that would support it?

No, but some people have made some of their own. It may be possible to get the connections correct, I just think you will struggle for power. What are you planning in running un the OTG at the same time as a MHL connection
Something like Acer Extend... To use my phone as a terminal for Remote Desktop and ssh.

Did you find any thing that would work?
I was really disappointed that Sony's IM750 did not include this function.
No...

You could try a powered hub with a micro usb female port but Im not sure if it would work or not. I know via a powered hub you can have several devices connected at the same time but to include MHL I'm really not sure. Is there an MHL cable with a female USB / micro USB slot in it? So you could connect the MHL directly into the phone and then potentially feed the USB hub from it? Not sure m8.
