Which android devices have USB OTG?

Hi All,

(1) Does anyone have a definitive, up-to-date list of all android devices that support USB OTG (USB On-the-Go)?

I'm looking to get an android phone with 4G, USB OTG and it's been difficult for me to determine which devices have OTG, and which have plain USB 2.0, Device Mode only.

I'd like to get a Tmobile phone soon, as well, for family plan reasons.

(2) Does anyone have any idea if device manufacturers will generally be supporting USB OTG moving forward?

THANKS!
 
Actually, I have this same question. However, I can tell you that the Samsung Galaxy S2 has USB host mode (OTG), out of the box, no root, no custom kernal or ROM.

I don't know which carriers have this phone, especially Tmobile. Verizon may get it late summer. I'm not sure it will have LTE or any type of 4G. It is encouraging that it supports USB host mode and it gives me hope that I will some day be able to get 4G and OTG.
 
Same question for me. I've looked around a lot but found nothing.

I need to find a device enabled out of the box like SGS2, but in a medium or low price range.

Thanks a lot.

This isn't just a software/root issue, the hardware needs to support the feature in order to have it work.
 
Galaxy Nexus has this feature, although, for now, you need to use Stickmount(additional app, install and good to go) to use it... but Google will be implementing a fix about this
