I am planning to update it to 5.0 using Odin,does the 5.0 update supports USB OTG?(not DAC)
I do not want to root the device.

I'm using v5.0.2 and an USB OTG microSD card reader. It worked without issue when the microSD card was formatted with exFat. I had to root and use an additional program (OTG USB Helper) to get NTFS and ext2,3,4 support plus flash a small small system file change. So if you stick with exFat format you should not need to root.

I never used OTG on 4.4.2 as I upgraded the OS as soon as I got my Tab S powered on. So I cannot answer that question. What I can say is that on lollipop v5.0.2 an OTG connected micoSD card formatted in extFat was accessible. As I'm now rooted and have applied some patches I cannot add any more as my device no longer matches the parameters (stock, unrooted, lollipop) of your original question.

Android One doesn't support OTG.
But there's a discussion for developing a kernel to support OTG.
You can check it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...e-general/compile-kernel-otg-support-t3085794
Hello everyone.
I bought my phone in the start of this year and had a lot of experiments on it since then. But, just few months ago I realized that Canvas A1 doesn't support OTG. I had tried different apps like, USB OTG Helper, StickMount etc. but was no worth.
Please if anyone can suggest what i can do to get OTG access. COMMENTS/Replies will be appreciated..
Thanks.
I tried stick mount and otg helper bt it not worked plz give any solution how to enable otg on canvas a1..

Try ThunderZap 3.5 kernel
Flash it and it may enable otg.

Hello, I have a Samsung Galaxy A7 2017 SM-A720F-DS (dual sim) bought on ebay and it have a Taiwan rom version (I live in France, use French mobile networks, my phone is international). Android 8.0 A720FZTU3CRD4. I have searched a tutorial for root and it's seems very difficult to find a rooting method. a website say : A rooting method A720FZTU3CRD4 Android 8.0.0 Oreo firmware for Galaxy A7 2017 SM-A720F not available yet (https://trueandroid.com).
Is there a way to root my device ?
I seen this tutorial, will it work for my device or brick ? (https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...ot-cwm-recovery-galaxy-a7-2017-model-t3552157)
I'm afraid about brick

Hello, thank you for your reply.
I don't understand. Can you expand your reply ? TWRP recovery can be installed on any device without bricking it ? Or we need a different version edited for one device model ?
I am new on this forum. Can you give me a link for a TWRP that can be installed on my device ?
Thank you

Q: Why do i need to format data partition?
A: Because old rom encrypted your data partition and new rom can't decrypt and use that content / root needs access to data partition to place misc files / phone not booting after flashing root until data partition gets formatted.
Q: Why not formatting data at twrp install?
A: Phone will boot even if data is encrypted if you don't root. Also system partition is not encrypted meaning you can flash RMM-State_Bypass anyway.

Hello,
I'm glad to see that this thread helped someone, even years after
Recently, I installed lineage OS (with Android 11) on this phone to give it a second life.
Because I wish Samsung would have provided OS updates for longer time.
Enjoy the root, and have a good day
