Usb OTG support for Xperia XZ1 Compact?

Hello, 

Does the Xperia XZ1 Compact support OTG?

I've tried using a micro-to-typeC adapter, an OTG, plugged in a mouse, keyboard, memory card, flash memory... nothing works

I've also gone into Settings-USB connectivity, but it doesnt detect any connected devices...

Anyone has the same problem or know how to resolve this?

Thanks.

Yes you can use OTG USB. I use a 64GB pendrive USB-C/USB 3 (2 ends). Just plug it in no adapters no settings no third party apps no anything. You can copy photos movies and audio files to that pendrive. What I did was this:

- plug in the pendrive

- if you have ES File Explorer it will ask if you want to use it: NO (CANCEL)

- scroll down the upper menu and you should find SMI USB drive or something similar with 2 options EXPLORE EJECT

- choose EXPLORE and you're in
