Galaxy S2 USB OTG

---

Ok, in theory Galaxy S 2 supports USB On-The-Go which means, it can be a USB host device for things like pendrives, digital cameras etc.
Granted of course, that you have the necessary cable.

Has anyone tried this feature?

Also, does the connected device have to be formatted as fat32?

FYI, mouse and keyboard are bluetooth.

I agree with the reviewer, big black mark on Samsung for not including the required cables with the phone for USB and HDMI.

at about minut 4 he says that usb mouse and keyboard doesn't work.
this is really a bad news for me

I am also afraid so When my phone arrives, I'll test it with ntfs & ext3.

Update on USB Mouse - some are working. Check my thread in the accessories forum for more details.

Hi there,

Got my £2 cable from Hong Kong (ebay purchase today).

Works great - even runs my 500GB HDD (this has to be plugged in to operate anyway - not sure USB powered HDDs will work).

If anyone's interested, the item description was:

Micro USB Host Cable for Nokia N810 OTG on the go N 810

No mention of the SGS2 - but I can verify that these work just fine!!!
