OTG Power Lock

Angelus89 · Sep 28, 2013

Hey Guys,

Ive written a small app that will prevent your Device from putting your "mounted" OTG Device to sleep. This was an issue for me because my Nexus 7 would put my Mini Micro SD Reader (http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/andyfei/mini-microsd-reader-for-android-smartphones-and-ta), to sleep and wouldn't re-power it when the device was woken up.

Its uploading to Google Play, but ive attached it to this post aswell.

Please give me some feedback guys, and Ill try to address any issues you find.

Thanks :victory:

I haven't tested the app as I don't have an otg card reader yet but a concern which u may of put into the app is, for battery life's sake can u turn the power on and off to the reader.

Well, thanks for the effort, but it didn't work on my N7. I am stock, rooted. Basically, no change. As soon as the tablet slept, the activity light on the reader went out. Waking it up, the light did not come back on. I tried copying a file from the reader and it errored out. I started, then tried stopping the service in your app, then restarting it. It still didn't work.

Did I miss anything?

Has there been anything further on this? I would really love to see this working.

This was absolutely perfect for me! I was searching for this a long time.
Angelus89, i am developing a app that needs to keep the OTG on full time, but i can't start your service from my app.
It's possible to tell how can i implement this on my app ?

Thank you very much!
