[@gregwest77]

You mention an app you use for your Nikon camera. Is there an app for a Canon camera that you know of ? I'm interested in trying this out. I have a Canon T5i and would be thankful for any help you can give me.

[@FindsOnTheDaily]

Hello Greg, Thanks for stopping by! Yes there is an app called DSLR Controller for Canon cameras. Check that app out. Let me know if this helped. dslrcontroller.com/

Bob, thank you for getting back sooner than thought :-) I will try that and get back with you on it.

[@headleyrobinson1008]

Good day how do i transfer pictures from my phone to a flash drive without using a computer

[@vkvineeth]

Hi there, Than you very much for the video. By the way can you suggest me the otg cables To use as a field monitor with my Nikon d7000 to galaxy note 4. also what application you used to use it as a live monitor

[@FindsOnTheDaily]

You're Welcome Vineeth. Any OTG cable with usb port size of your phone would do, Google for the compatible otg cable for note 4 and there should already a usb connector with your D7000. The app is called DSLR Dashboard. You can watch my review if you wish. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3vcgZ97pZ5nhMU Let me know if this helped. Good Luck!!!

[@furballkimfpv9365]

Hi Just a question. Can I use my android tablet hdmi to connect to the otg of the headset. Can I see what the tablet see's on the goggles. Thank you

[@blacknwhitestrings2997]

What app did you use?

[@fabidash9732]

Does type c can use for the Android Moto??

[@TheMightsparrow]

Is there a otg for Apple devices?

[@vahidashafeek5184]

Can i copy the files from phone to usb by theOTG??

[@ShamsherNawaz]

Is OTG cable a device specific cable for different devices or I can use any cable to any device. I have "Samsung Tab 4 SM-T230NU" and "HTC Amaze 4G".

[@FindsOnTheDaily]

Hey ShamsherNawaz, Good question. The type of OTG cable for a device depends on the usb port of that particular device. HTC amaze and Tab4 have different types of mini usb ports on them, so you'll have to buy/use different OTG cables for them. Hope this helps.

[@ShamsherNawaz]

Bob's Den WOW. Thank you very much for a quick reply. During my search I figured out that OTG cable is same for every device ( simple a straight cable ). It's actually the device which must enabled to accept it. Correct me if I am wrong. Thanks.

[@FindsOnTheDaily]

***** You're Welcome ShamsherNawaz. Well, that is not quite right. Because in your case, apparently HTC amaze and Samsung Tab4 does not have the same usb port to connect otg cable to. compare pictures here: HTC amaze port: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5d/Htc_extmicrousb_port.png samsung Tab 4: forums.androidcentral.com/attachments/samsung-galaxy-tab-2/64095d1364401624t-why-doesnt-samsung-put-micro-usb-port-tablets-samsung-galaxy-note-8-6.jpg Now, as long as the usb port of the device is of same shape, you can use the same otg cable. Hope this helps you out.

Can I use it to control one android device with another android device?

[@RaviSingh-dj7xi]

can I connect external HDD to mobiles via OTG? Can I transfer files to & from the HDD?

[@at00713]

yes but your HDD you need to power it up also for it to work your HDD consumes more power without the extra power it will not work

[@RaviSingh-dj7xi]

I had been using HDD in laptop where no separate power supply is needed for the HDD. Also WD hard disk that I have has no facility for powering separately. There is only 1 port in the HDD that is used to connect with laptop via cable. So as per your comment, it means those hard disks can't be used with mobiles.

[@Videostufftas]

thanks for that, very interesting

[@jmakalanda]

nice, thank you so much..

[@marioiacolucci]

I have this cable so i just wanted to know what it was now I know

[@FindsOnTheDaily]

Mario Iacolucci Great to hear it helped. This is the main reason why i made this video. A lot of people don't know what this thing is... Have fun!!

[@biswajitsarania8643]

Brother may I know Otg cable support 32gb pen drive on android

[@at00713]

[@celrolla7760]

Can you send me a otg cable for LG f6 please

[@jeremypringle4164]

I rilly wish I had one

[@walte7612]

Stands for On The Go

[@topicvideosguy]

sorry, but its kinda pointless. There are a bunch of OTG cables out there for a dollar or less, usually looking like the Android robot, and it looks like it bites the phone when used.

[@zabihuddinajazdr]

hi guys i have galaxy S4 its wifi not working can i use USB wifi adapter via OTG cable???????? did anyone tried it ?? plz help

[@at00713]

yes. but i would recommend if you can save all your files and do factory rest you may have a virus or file conflict if do so your wifi will work again ...

[@digitalfun59]

Why won't anyone talking about otg cables say, "this cable is nothing special,just like any other cable, it's just a cable you use to hook things up, nothing is special about this cable." Why, why won't people be thorough when explaining things?

[@satanstrilogy2288]

W.O.W.

[@jonwest5880]

where's your towel?

[@zaks9919]

The short version ...it provides a USB female plug with a micro USB at the opposite end that plugs into your phone....Now I see the problem of ants describing an elephant standing right next to them., ya see there's this big nail & then there's this horrible smell & then this yellow rain ....oh well never mind....!

[@gf-xr6pw]

Can someone please tell me the name of the song at 2:38 ?
