@TaulusPaulus65 I haven't tried, but I highly doubt it would work since Linux itself still doesn't have good support for Joystick/gamepads as peripherals. Much less likely that a mobile phone manufacturer would go to the trouble of getting a driver working and making it work in Android which doesn't have any joystick/gamepad support.
This looks possible on the droid as well. It can support USB OTG, but it uses a standard USB Micro-B port instead of the Micro-AB port, it can act as both host and peripheral, that you would normally get from an OTG device. You can hack together the correct port from an extra cable, but the new port has to be inserted upon boot-up every time you wanted to use host mode.
If any of you smart folks can think of a way to have it work, without rebooting the phone, please post here.
Dude. That was such an awesome job, congrats. Btw do you know if this mod can work on htc evo 4?

Good Effort!
That's great, until Someone on a Train, decides to grab Your Streak. :P.
As for Manufacturers making Drivers... That's kind of the Point of Android... You write Your own!
Like with Linux... Remember?
