How To know If Your Phone Supports OTG by ochuski(m): 9:43pm On Dec 25, 2014
I modified this topic since no 1 can come up with a list of phones that supports OTG.. Good news is that i have done a little research and am here with the solution. SOLUTION
The fastest and most
effective solution by far is to install USB OTG
Checker, a free app that quickly and effectively determines whether your Android phone or tablet supports USB
OTG.. To download simply type "USB OTG checker" in appworld and it will appear

This isn't a foolproof way of determining if a phone is USB On-The-Go ready as a lot of phones have the hardware infrastructure that supports OTG but lack the OS base as is the case with a lot of MTK devices. This software runs its tests based on your phones hardware and as such even if it says your phone has USB On-The-Go, the feature may not actually work on it.

The best way would be to actually test your device with an OTG device/feature .

Most android phones support USB otg. In other cases you need to enable the function. Just root your phone, then install an app called Stickmount. The app will enable your phone to detect an otg drive.

You can connect directly. But you might need to download ES Explorer to be able to use it well. Depends on the type of phone though.
