I want to connect my nexus 5x with laptop for file/data transfer as well as USB tethering . My laptop only has USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports so can you guys recommend proper USB type to USB or micro USB 2.0/3.0 adaptor/cables. I want to make sure to buy the right cables/adaptor
which one is good?

Both will work fine. Anker makes good stuff too. I have many of their cables and chargers all quality stuff. Definitely recommend them.

ok thank you. I was curious because i heard that if you use wrong cable it might damage phone because of difference in current flows. If we used type c to USB adopter and charge it visa usb cable then i assume it will charge it with normal speed? or still rapid charge?

That cable has the proper resistor configuration to indicate legacy source device so it should be fine (just look for 56k resistor)
Anytime you have a conversion from USB A to C the cable is supposed to be configured in such a way to tell the device being charged to fall back to USB charging rates (.5A to 1.5A). If that 56K resistor was substituted with a different resistor like in earlier designs, the device being charged might think the source device can handle more and will pull more current than available. This could damage your USB port in your example. However since the proper resistor is in place, the 5x will limit the current draw to what USB A can do and your USB A port should be ok.

Nexus 5x is USB 2.0 type C. There is a difference between cable interface and cable speed. Cable speed is designed as 1.0, 2.0 3.0 etc. Cable interface is designed by letters - A, B, C. Type A refers to the standard USB outlet found on a computer, while type C refers to the connector that plugs into the Nexus 5X. You can have a type c cable at either 2.0 or 3.0 speeds.

Not sure why they don't show up for you.
Maybe you need to enable developer options and USB debugging. I've had those enabled from the beginning so I wouldn't know if they have any affect on USB options.
This is what you should be seeing, the USB notification, then the USB notification options once you tap on the notification.

No, I have not tried it, but they say in this thread that it is not only about power but having a resistor as well:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1149442
especially post #10
Tested. Nope, this does not work.
I assume the resister is needed to tell the Tab to send power to the USB.
The resistor is needed to cause the Tab to enter host mode. No resistor - you've got device-to-device and that doesn't work.
Would it be possible to splice the resistors into the female-female usb cable? 2 resistors and a cable is a really cheap way to go.

No, the resistors go between two dock pins that are not connected to the stock USB cable...
old thread, but i am in the need of the same.
would it theoretically possible to have a charging cable with a usb host part spliced in? i need to be able to connect a usb hid device AND keep charging the tablet. Would the current going into the tablet be mucking things up for the usb host operation?

It shouldn't since the charging +5V input is on separate pins from the +5 USB host power. But the Tab looks at the USB D+/- pins to figure out if it should do slow or high current charging. If it sees voltages that make it look like a host is on the other end of the pins, then it does 500mA max charging, and if the pins are floating it charges at max 2A. I don't know if host mode would screw that up. You could look at the kernel source, or just try it and see.

Make sure you have a 'charge only' lead to the charger (Shows as 'AC connected' not 'USB Connected') or you'll find you won't have enough power to do everything.

Yes, i tried but i cant charge. I tried with other phone and works but dont have otg support.
The problem with OTG and simultanous charging is that you'll probably need a custom kernel supporting this.
Because if you use OTG (or a data cable respectively), the phone will only charge with 500 mA max. - this might not be enough to charge your phone while using power-consuming apps (navigation, games,...). If you want the phone to charge faster/draw more current, you'll need to short-circuit the data leads - but then you can't use OTG/data. Tricky...

I think that is not the reason because if i try to charge only didn't work, i think the charging cable is not compatible with moto g like some chargers specific for some patents.
If someone knows a cable like that to charge and use usb stick or something compatible with moto g I would appreciate.
The cable is probably working, but the kernel is not supporting it. If you use a USB y-cable, it will power a plugged-in USB stick / device, but not your Moto G. You will need a kernel or tomorrow supporting simultaneous data & charging. Have a look in the Nexus 7 sections, there you'll find more information about this.

Does the nexus 5x come with a cable (I think it's called type c to type a) that works with USB 3.0 and 2.0? Is it really necessary to be able to connect the 5x to a computer especially if I'm going to put a custom ROM on it?
No. Only the 6P comes with the Type C to Type A cable. The 5X comes with a Type C to Type C cable only.
You have to buy a compatible cable or adapter.

Nope. Just ships with a single USB 2.0 Type C to Type C cable and A/C wall charger. If you want to plug it into a computer to unlock the bootloader (or connect to pre-existing Type A chargers), you need to purchase a separate Type C to Type A cable.
Edit: ninja'd lol
The 5x only comes with a USB c to USB c cable for the charger. I bought a USB c to USB a cable with my 5x from google. I think you could use an adaptor (c to a) and use the cable that comes with it.

Is it correct that this hub doesn't have power pass through to be able to charge the tablet?
Really like the hub, but didn't buy, as I'd like it to power the tablet too.
I picked up a Griffin USB-C to USB-A adapter, plugged it in to my Pixel C, and plugged a memory stick into the cable. ES File Explorer recignized the memory stick immediately. On the box for the cable it stated that it was for plugging USB peripherals into your tablet.

With so many cables not passing Benson Leung's tests, I am a bit unsure with USB-C OTG cable I should get. The original one from Google is 15 € which is kinda expensive...
Does anyone know if he reviewed some USB-C OTG cables? I can't find anything.
It only has full size USB a ports, so can't plug in a charger no.
The battery life is great on he Pixel C though, so all good

Short answer is I don't at the moment, as have not had a chance to look at the online spreadsheet to see what he has tested and approved.
Will hopefully get to look later.
Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
Does not appear to be included in the spreadsheet, so likely he has not reviewed.
I tried Google's own USB C to A (female adapter that looks like a otg cable) with a memory stick and it did not work, however I plugged in a USB2 hub into that adapter and then plugged the memory stick into that and it sees to work like a charm with esexplorer, I could also attach other things like a mouse and that worked too at the same time! So the trick is to use a USB hub with Google's adapter first and you can use any USB accessories just not directly into the adapter. I have not tried a USB 3 type hub as I don't have one but I suspect it will be fine and give you even faster speeds.

There are lots of OTG devices that work perfectly on my Nexus 5x - such as a microSD adapter, USB C ->A with a thumbdrive and my iRig UA guitar adapter
None of these work on my Pixel C.
I just got off a chat with Google support where I was told
"I'm sorry to inform you, at this moment it's not compatible. Be rest assured [sic], our engineers are working on a software fix to make it compatible with the Pixel C."
I responded with a link to the reddit AMA which seemed to state otherwise and the support rep told me that she'd get back to me via email with a response.
You can try plugging a USB 2.0 or 3.0 hub into a USB C>A adapter (mine was the Google adapter and the hub a USB 2 unpowered type) as I did and and that worked for me and I can now access Memory sticks on my Pixel C with no extra software (not sure about your iRig but it worked with other accessories I tried plugging into the hub).

Thanks, I'll try with a hub. I just don't understand why a hub is required for the Pixel-C but not for the Nexus 5x
There certainly seems to be a less complete stack in the Pixel-c -vs- the Nexus 5x.
Interestingly when I insert a cable into the Nexus 5x I get a dialog to set the usb mode:
"Use USB for
- Charging
- Power Supply
- File Transfers
- Photo transfer (PTP)
- Midi"
Where as the Pixel-C only gets "Power Supply" as an option.
I have tried USB-A to USB-C cable on my computer but the only thing that works with the cable is windows file transfers, in fastboot it just never connects to the device, i have used my GFs PC that has a native USB-C port in the front to do my fastboot commands and it works just fine.
My PC dont have USB-C and my motherboard is this : Asus Tuf Z390 Plus Gaming Wifi
The case is a Be Quiet : PURE BASE 500 Black
I have tried all the back USB-A ports and the 2 in the front same results.

Anything by Anker. Edit: Be aware that last I looked, they also sell USB 2.0 USB-A<->USB-C cables, so I just want to give you a heads up to look out for that and I'm sure you'd want to only buy a USB 3.0 USB-A<->USB-C cable.
Also, I don't know if the recommendation is still the same, but it was always advised in the old days to prefer USB ports that are built into the motherboard - sometimes even more specifically on the back of the motherboard (for desktops). I know this doesn't help you, but just "let the buyer beware" that using an add-on USB-C card could also cause problems.
