I can attach a usb drive to my DNA, use Astro to access the music folder and play music from my usb drive. I don't know if that means that it is officially supported.
can you tell me how you did this - I have tried everything I know how and haven't been able to get it to work. My set up is an OTG cable with a flashdrive formatted to FAT32. When I plug it in all I get is a notification saying "Unable to charge device - please use the supported charger". Also' I haven't been able to access the "Mount USB storage" tab in settings > storage. What am I doing wrong here - do I need to be rooted to use this feature?
no need to be root and I get the warning too, I just use Astro -> my files -> you will need to scroll down a bit
I have been able to use several different USB drives with my OTG cable for both reading and writing. I just tested a USB keyboard and mouse and both worked.
There is also a USB storage menu in the settings and a button to unmount USB storage, i think that's about as supported as you can get.
This is the cable I use:
