Although not a cable but still very convenient to expand the phones storage temporarily or transfer files:

Kingston DataTraveler 64 GB Micro Duo Type C USB 3.1 Gen 1/USB 3.0 Flash Drive

Works great for me.

Warning! Not all USB C to A cables are safe to use! Read this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/1...ly-dangerous-third-party-cables-and-adapters/
The orzly cable is not OK acording to this, the resistor in it is to small and it can fry the USB-A device you plug into.
I have idea to buy a MicroUSB -> USB C conversor at eBay: http://www.ebay.es/itm/291556075086?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

Is this compatible with the Zuk? dangerous?

Thanks

Can you confirm if charge USBC devices with a micro USB cable and a conversor is sure?

Wich white one??? MicroSD???? :confused:

The Y OTG cable doesn't work with the Z1, I reported it in case someone wanted to buy it. Its possible to use USB devices like keyboards or mice, but I wasn't able at all to mount USB flash drives. Its possible to use it as charging cable but OTG function doesn't work at the same time.

The Microusb to USB type-C adapters are for charging and they work good. For OTG you need a dedicated adapter.

BTW Its possible to connect a USB 3.0 Hard Disk without external power supply, the Z1 can handle it :cool: It read both NTFS and exFat but isn't allowed to write.

I was referring to this: USB3.1 Type-C Male Micro USB 5pin Female Extension Adapters - White (5 PCS)
My questions are:
1 - Does it work for data and charging, using a regular USB - micro USB cable?
2 - Does it work as OTG adaper, using a regular OTG USB female - micro USB cable?


Thanks.

Charging and data yes, it works as long you use a good cable. OTG no, I treid with various adapters but nothing, also using a female to female USB adapter on a Type C cable doens't work. Only mine 2 Type-C to USB 3.0 adapters are able to mount flash memories or HD and not all USB flash drives or SD adapters work.
