I know that CM supports USB OTG by default without the need to flash another kernel or use stickmount app. And also it charges the phone when I connect my usb 3.0 HDD with additional power to the USB. But why can't other ROM developers implement this option?

Using franco from last 3 months and i haven't seen a post with bricks.. But having a nexus and bricking it?

... Never had problems with franco and i think it's the most used kernel here at XDA..

This is all i plug in with no power source and no extra cable/wires.
Stickmount pro
Root explorer pro
Pro versions just foe the extras and supporting the devs

Under the white cap is the micro USB

Thanks I didi it but each time when it wants to mount the app stop and popup say " Unfortunately, stickmount has stopped." I tried different versions but all the same, is there any program else ?

I've read the entire Franco thread for both the N5&10 and never read of anyone bricking their phone due to that kernel.

I use rooted stock with Franco r34 on both my N5&10 and OTG works well with the aforementioned stickmount and USB OTG Helper.

That's because you can't brick with a kernel unless:

1) You flashed it wrong (disconnected power through flash or something)
2) You flashed the wrong kernel for your device and perhaps supplied too much voltage to hardware.
