Could you point me to an otg cable that works on the zuk? From what I've researched, not everyone works well on it!
I'm using this USB stick: Sandisk Ultra 32GB Dual USB Drive USB 3.1 / USB Typ-C
Please note that the USB stick needs to support OTG, too.

Anyone got one of these?/will it work?
Yes, I have a USB OTG cable and it works for low power USB drives.
Hi,
Just picked up my Fire 7 from the usual high street retailer for £49.99 - didn't want to wait til 25th Oct based on Amazon UK times. It is an impressive spec and build for the money.
I have just tried a universal OTG USB adapter to a USB key and no joy. I've also connected powered USB devices to the OTG cable and the Fire 7 is not picking them up.
My OTG cable has worked with other Android devices that support OTG - so the cable definitely works. But I am not sure of the Fire 7 supports OTG or it might need another OTG cable?
Or r00t needed to open this up feature up?

Have you tried to connect a camera using your cable? There's an app specifically for that bundled with FireOS. Maybe it works only with cameras?

Yep I have tried two cameras and no joy. I'm thinking that my OTG cable could be toast?
Has anyone else tried OTG on the Fire 7 - can you please let me know how you get on?
UPDATE: I am making the assumption that the first tablet I had was faulty on the USB. The reason for this as I have just made another attempt OTG on my replacement Fire 7. The USB OTG is definitely powered by the tablet.
OTG USB 8gb drive working.
Photo Imported kicked in the moment I connected my Canon 7d mk II & 600d camera.
250Gb Drive kept dropping out - so defo not enough power to keep this connected.
Parani-UD100a USB Bluetooth Adapter - powered up but not showing as connected.
TP-Link TL-WN722N - no power light and did not show as connected.
OK would need a ROM to get the Parani & TP-Link to work but based on what I have just done, the OTG feature is definitely powered and gives us room for expansion if features could be enabled at a later date.
OTG works out the box for me with a cheap adapter off Amazon. I've found especially after the 5.0.1 update the tablet disconnects the sd card when the USB otg is in use. It's as if it can't power both at the same time. I connect a USB memory stick via otg and then all my apps become inaccessible from the sd card.
USB OTG Ethernet confirmed working - obviously it knocks out the Wifi and takes priority.
I used a standard USB 2.0 to Fast Ethernet Adapter and confirmed settings via Network Info II app.
Just loaded up WiFi PCAP with the TP-Link USB and the TP-Link is definitely not being picked up.
Hi,
I was looking for a working USB-C OTG adapter for P9000, but
I couldn't find one that's 100% confirmed to work.
Also I was looking for any usb-C OTG powered connectors
(like USB micro Y cables) but again-did anyone had a thing like that
working with P9000?
Thanks in advance for replies.
My elephone connects to the PC fine with the stock cable
I am using this one OTG USB-C 3.0 . It worked perfectly with the Stock Rom (USB Stcisk, USB Mous and Keyboard)
I am having real problems with getting OTG to work - have tried various adapters and managed to get my phone to read from a few USB memory sticks however I cannot copy anything from my phone to the stick!
I have tired re-formatting to FAT32 via the phone but no joys. Using stock ROM.
Any ideas?
I´m using this one. Works well with all kind of thumb drives. I haven`t tested any keyboards yet.
@blade954: Try another filemanager - such as rootexplorer or esexplorer. Had some same trouble on my old xperia Z.
Trust USB-C to USB3.1 CONVERTER also works for me.
I bought an OTG adapter from china, it`s an microusb to an full size usb 2.0 port you plug your usb stick into it.
I have had an number to sudden reboots when i plug my Sandisk 16gb extreme usb 3.0 and an Sandisk 16gb usb stick
Both are formatted to Fat32 and have video`s on them.
Anybody else have this happen.
John.
How would you connect a 2.5" HDD using a SATA to USB 3.0 cable and USB 3.0 to USB-C a
It's an NTFS partitioned drive. I'm having a little trouble accessing it. I have a 1TB 3.5" drive as well, but so far I haven't had luck with it either.
It would be better if you had the SATA-USB adapter with external power source (the current is to low from single USB port, OnePlus 3 has USB2 and not 3).
You may need to flash a custom kernel with NTFS support built in.
