I used 4 different programs to check if my Android phone (Alcatel Flint) has OTG capability. They all say it does. I tried two different OTG host cables. Finally, exhausted, I made my own OTG host cable per instructions online (Shorting 2 of the 5 leads in the mini USB plug). And still - nothing. No matter what I plug into my phone - it doesn't sense it. Nothing happens. Again- downloaded a bunch of programs like Total Commander, etc. Same thing - nothing, The phone doesn't detect FAT32 formatted 16GB drives, doesn't detect mice, doesn't detect anything at all. Have I been ripped off with the phone? Do I need a new phone? I honestly feel like throwing it in the garbage. If I can't solve this - that's definitely what I am going to do. One week of wasted time
