I bought one of these: HERE
It doesn't work, so I'm wondering if any one has experience with this cable, it says it's an OTG but I get no power from it.
Does anyone have any ideas?
I tried to plug in several things like my PS3 controller and a HDD but nothing.
I'm wondering if the pin that is supposed to be shorted to ground is on the mini end and not the micro end like we want it to be.
Otherwise I wonder if I I can modify it work rather than send it back?
Do you have the 3.1 update?

I lol'd at these two getting owned
But anyway I built my own usingthis and a usb extension. Followed this instructions. So my guess is that the cable you have doesn't have the 5th pin (brown wire) grounded. I butchered a regular micro usb cable just to find out it didn't have the brown wire at all.
Hope this helps!

This is my guess also, but the eBay guy as you can see clearly sells it as an OTG cable. I have been in touch and he says his supplier says it's an OTG but he doesn't have the technical expertise to understand, let alone advise.
I guess the solution is as you say, I went to the workshop, and even tried the local electronics store and it seems you can't buy the micro-usb plug as an individual component so butchering other stuff seems to be the solution.
As for the tutorial, thanks, but I shouldn't need it, otherwise I should probably send back the certificate for my degree in Electronic Engineering that's on my wall, cause I really wouldn't have earned it

Well, the iGo is no good, because they probably don't have the data lines connected, as it's for charging.
The one in your next post on eBay won't fit if it's an CA-157 substitute, I got hte real Nokia CA-157 and the connector is squared off at the end, picture: HERE
however, I did get a file to the end of my CA-157 and filed it to fit, and YES it works (taking a picture now)..... attached.
The cable you linked to on ebay is just a micro usb to a mini usb, an OTG cable is a Micro male to USB female.
4 bucks free shipping: Ebay
Spend 4 more dollars and get one with a cool blinky LED in it:

No problem. I have this and the cable from my OP now working too. I opened it up and found the ID pin was not connected so I soldered it to ground and that works now. SO I have a direct cable for my HDD and a female USB (the filed Ca-157) for other stuff.

Fellas,
I didnt expect such poor quality from HTC. Just few months of standard use and my TP2 data cable is already fraying! To worsen the experience, T-mo is unwilling to replace it under warranty and recommends buying a new one from their website. HTC on the other end, is not answering their customer care no.
Such a disappointment! Any suggestions as to where cud i buy this cable for a more decent price than at t-mo website?
I have...like a billion of these cables.

It's just a standard mini-USB cable. You can get them pretty much anywhere. Look through what you have. If you have purchased any amount of electronics, there is a good chance you already have another.
Wow ok Mr. Ninja put down the nunchucks! Its just a normal cable.
Thanks for your responses!
I found a working mini USB cable from my external hard drive and its working fine with the TP2. I didnt realize it cud work, i guess because this cable and the TP2 mini USB have different looking pins (TP2 cable has that weird asymmetry at its end). Anyhow, its working...so cool!

You are not alone, and I am a pro at this stuff. In fact, mostly everyone at first glance looking at it wouldn't think they are the same. I just tried it for the sake of trying, because of the Diamond-esque look to it, I expected it to not work. But, it did!
I dunno..I have two of the regular mini usb cables for some external hard drives, and from a tmobile shadow/dash and while they work to charge the phone, they wont work for activesync...as soon as I put in the supplied cable activesync pops up...

Now I feel embarrassed.
trust me.. you werent the first one to make that mistake.
Definitely not. I did this for 2 days before I figured this out.
My only complaint about the default cable is that to me its just SO dang long.. I know 90% of the times companies give you cables that are to short and we all fuss about that, but to me this thing is extremely long, and its so stiff that its hard to have it drag off the side of your desk and look clean.
Yeah, I am waiting for a couple retractable cables from hong kong with the micro end.
The cable sucks, it's so damn stiff that I usually end up knockig half the crap on my desk to the floor when picking the phone up to disconnect it. I wish they had adapters to fit my mini usb cables from other phones, they are all nice and flexible and easy to roll up.
Edit: Just found the adapters and more;

Don't buy this one from amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/USB-Micro-Adapter-Converts-Devices/dp/B0027YYMU6
As it does not have OTG compatibility, i.e. your Xoom will not be host while using it. The others above all have OTG compatibility.
I've orderd the ebay one.
Hope this information was useful.
Cheers
I ordered this cable, I think it is compatible
what do you think?

thank s
Sorry to be the bringer of bad news.
If this is the same cable as the one you bought:
http://lunashops.com/goods.php?id=1434
Then I don't think it will fit in the Xoom.
That one has a Micro USB A male, and I think the Xoom can only take a Micro B.
For Products that are compatible with OTG, they are supposed to have an AB type port that allows the A cable to attach for OTG and the B for Slave. But it seems that OTG was an after thought for Motorola and thus the Xoom only has a B-type port, so you have to get an unconventional Micro-B to USB A type for it. Hence why they are so hard to find.
Here is what the different connectors look like, from wikipedia:
And this is the port for the Xoom:
The cables I linked to above all look like they have Micro USB B males.
I ordered this one http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290540648726
Is it compatible, too?
correct me if im wrong, but has anyone found a usb otg cable that will actually work with the xoom. I dont mean cables that were made up. I mean a cable from an actual website or store that works out the box? I see people recommend the ebay one, but does anyone actually have it? Im looking all over the internet for a confirmation on something that works.

This one looks like it should fit, but I'm not sure if it is made for OTG or not. Suppose there is no way to know until you get it.
Timrock, I have ordered the eBay one I posted earlier, I can let you know in a week or two. But it looked right, said it was for OTG and was really cheap, so I'm not to worried if it doesn't work. Will make my own if it doesn't.
But ya, otherwise we can wait to see which ones the other guys used.
Maybe check in the dev section where they released the kernel that allowed USB host, maybe someone there will confirm which ones worked.

I ordered mine for $4 (free shiping) from china sometime last week, it has not arrived yet lol, but I'm far away anyhow, I couldn't wait and used a micro usb cable I had laying around and a femme USB port and got myself a "free" OTG, and somewhat aesthetically pleasant to the eye.
I was reading through the threads and saw a few comments from members who said the stock Samsung charger is not that good
This is my first experience with a Samsung Galaxy phone so I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a good USB Cable
I've already experienced some issues that may be USB Cable related. Some files I transferred through FTP would not complete. It showed up while the phone was charged but when I unplug it the file disappeared (on internal storage)
So if anyone could possibly suggest a good cable, preferably with a link to purchase , I would greatly appreciate it thanks!

Whether or not the Samsung cable is sub-par, you are going to want a better charger. You'll want at least a 2 amp charger (Amazon basics has a decent 2.1 amp one).

I used this charger last night on my GS3 with the old cable from my Droid Charge (which appears to be nearly identical). Seems fine. Charge was decently quick, and there wasn't excess heat at the connector or with the device at large.
My only complaint with the included TouchPad cable is that it "hangs" upon removal, whereas the Samsung charging cable feels a lot smoother going into and out of the port.
