USB OTG support for lumia series...

Sven, that is the long answer Taufik wants a yes or no answer.No need to pound technical terms to end users,what I would have liked to hear was how MS was planing on how to go about conquering the smartphone makert again.How are you planing to win us back as it is clearly seen in market share that you guys screwed up big time,admit it or not.Nokia once held more than 50 % market share with an OS as rudimentary as Symbian,you guys took over and blew it.

My greatest love was the N8,it invented OTG,HDMI,Micro USB, It was the greatest phone ever made after the 3310,those were phones Sven.What went wrong .I am so ashamed of my 1320 I wont show it in public the thing restarts itself a few times a day.

At least stop abandoning projects such as  Astoria,they were the only hope to save us from our embarrassing phones.

There isn't a Yes or No answer to the posed question(s).  The answer to the past has been done to death. No.

The answer to the future depends on the what the manufacturer decides. If the connector is micro-USB then it may or may not support OTG.  If it is USB-C it will not be "OTG" but will likely support all the stuff you want OTG for.

As a point of clarification, I am not 'you guys'. I have no relationship to MS beyond answering questions in this forum as a hobby. MVP is a designation afforded by MS to those they deem have done a reasonable job at that, not an indication of employment. Insider means I signed up on a web site. There are folks in these forums that are employed by MS in some way, to answer technical/use questions. They are not here to provide official PR or insight into corporate visions. It is unlikely they are privy to them in the first place, and actually restricted from commenting unless explicitly allowed. That means what they can say is typically already public record.

All that is to say, you will not hear, "how MS was planning on how to go about conquering the smartphone market again', or 'How are you planning to win us back", here. At least not anything official from MS. MS has Blogs for that.

Understood!!

Microsoft Lumia, without OTG, for me, no more!😡

Not sure exactly what you mean there, but since it seems the Lumia line is being closed, there won't be any with or without OTG from MS. My personal opinion is if MS makes another device, it will have USB-C and all that comes with. I don't see MS chasing the low (med?) market in the future, so a low priced, micro-USB sporting device is unlikely, IMHO. You see this same direction in the Surface line. The lower priced Surface models (not Pro) are gone, with no apparent replacement. I think that's a shame. I like my Surface 3 and it serves a different purpose than my Surface Pro 3. I do get it though. MS seems to be wanting to display the possible, not the 'what others can do just fine'.
