Great, I will test it at home 
edit:
so, I tested it, but i didn't success :/ I made 1,2,3 point, now phone looks that it is charging, so i re-plug flash disk into phone, but nothing happen...
I tried it with this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.homeysoft.nexususb.viewer, with in buil file manger, with ES file manager.
I am on stock, only rooted, rom...
What I am doing wrong? Or it isn't just working? :/

wonderful and finally an easy way (it's the first one also) ...but I didn't understand why we have to plug it to power first (steps 2,3)?

Ok, i tried almost every USB device that I have, but without success :/... But if I look in your attached txt file, I see there this: "build.display: DMod based on BenzROM v4", I really don't understand what about the file is, but I thing, that this mean that you are using some moded ROM, not stock rom, right? So I thing that there should be some mod/tweaks in this moded ROM which enables for you OTG

Im on Dmod v2N and when i connect the device and usb stick this is what i get. (Although i didnt try connecting it to a source of power with a male to male cable) if i understood it correctly, it says here that os doesnt support otg.

I ran through the logcat dump and it seems like the usb host manager is what we should check. As I can see, it's disabled by default, and only activated when the device is connected to a power source.
When disconnected, that small gap, when the phone still thinks it's charging let's the host manager do its job. At least that's what I think is happening.
Unfortunately, I don't know this much about android. My best bet would be to somehow start the manager when needed, but again, don't know if it's that simple or even possible.

Ok, so we know that OTG is only disabled by the kernel (but phone can provide power to usb device, so full OTG support is possible by hardware). It seems that we can simply enable it.

Has anyone try it using dmod v1 or bln kernel??
Maybe bln kernel can support otg
