USB OTG Host Adapter

**PhotoMasterGreg** · 01-31-2012, 10:43 AM

Has anyone had any luck using the USB OTG (On The Go) Host adapter? Basically it's a short cable/adapter that connects to the Micro USB connector on the E4GT to a jump/flash drive. I bought two on Amazon (one for me and one for my son in college) and when I went to use them I got no response from the device. I am running unrooted GB (EL29 as of yesterday).

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Same problem here ... The OTG does not work and the hookup to display on the TV doesn not work ... it seems so easy with the Youtube demo.

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Sadly for some weird a$$ reason, due to Sprint/Samsung the ETG4 doesn't have the OTG option :/, and i was so happy about that option, until i get to find out, that there is no way to enable it, waaay after my return period.

The TV hookup works perfectly on mine. Just not the OTG.

The latest in the saga:
Numerous people have told me to wait for ICS to come out, as USB host mode is built in. Well I now have ICS and so far have been unable to use the adapters. If anyone knows any more about it I would love the intel.
