How to plug a pendrive to the microUSB-otg?

---

What do I need in order to plug a USB pendrive to the phone and copy files between both?

I just bought one of those cheap micro USB otg adaptor. So far I understood that you need this:

-2.3.4 rooted
-A kernel with usb otg modules (drivers) built-in like inteks kernel or doomlord kernel v9
-An useful app to mount USB drives called q5
-A root file explorer app

More instructions and q5 app here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?p=16782280

Did you got this working? My usb drives doesn't show up in q5 app

See bro,
I haven't tested it, but according to my information,
Buy a Nokia N8 OTG Cable and plug it into ur device in the shop itself (thumb drive should also be attached)
Now if ur drive lights up, means it works
Buy the cable and come home
Now
Open xperia arc forum and open OTG thread,
From all the listed methods, u will find an Apk method
Download that apk and mount ur drive using that app and open any good file explorer to see ur drive(i recommend ES file explorer)

Is it enough if I just buy one of those cheap micro USB otg adaptor? Or do I need any tweak or software?
I'm using 2.3.4 rooted

Buy a cheap OTG adapter and it gonna work. I tested it with N8 cable and my mouse, keyboard were working without any hassle

Seek for "microusb otg", you can buy it in a pet shop, local or online

so you think this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAd8RHGSqks) should work?
and i can't find a webshop for europe/Maestro card
