I start by data:
Galaxy note sm-P905 lollipop pro 5.0.1 (formerly KitKat, and was rooted)

Problem: it does not work usb OTG (I tested one dedicated for galaxy note that has its own power supply, and one for any smartphone (without power support) )

Story: when I was the KitKat, i bought the OTG with power support, and recognized it without installing anything (I do not remember if i bought it before, or after the root). The fact is that i didnt used OTG too much, but when I had the lollipop (I tried rooted and non rooted), does not recognize any USB.
The funny thing is that when I check otg with otg checker app, it detects the OTG, but not the pendrive (if i put one).
The otg wich has own feed has a light, it illuminates when this one connected to the tablet , anyway checker recognizes the OTG but not pendrive.

I saw on the internet that the problem could be the kernel, but not how to find the stock. Try installing one with the odin but I put that value was incorrect.
current kernel:
3.4.0-4719750

You might try a different usb device if you haven't already.
I had a USB drive go bad on me and I thought I was having the same issue and tried multiple OTG adaptors before I figured out it was the drive.

Unfortunately I'm still on kitkat to avoid losing root but I thought I'd chime in just in case it turns out to be something simple. :)

Yesterday i went back to kk, and it recognized the hub usb (with power supply), but not the pendrive. I had to wipe all the data, and now im in lollipop again. I tried to flash cyanogen too but i haven't found it (well, i found it but i couldn't install it [tried with odin and TWRP])

Im a bit tired trying to solve this, so i've decided to give up and do an pendrive organizer with the hub :victory:
