When your device touch Screen is not working 😎

Wot? That doesn't work right?

@Charmgoggles Of course it works man ;)

@Charmgoggles It's called USB-OTG. Most Androids support it and it allows using the microUSB port for stuff like keyboard, mouse, flash drives, USB audio etc.
All you need is a cheap adapter.

Today I learned!

@Charmgoggles Yup that works!

I tried gaming with a mouse in Android phone, it shows the pointer but you cant game with it!

Omg that's amazing... :O

Notice me senpai

@AnisD As a fellow Mi3 user, I've been there too!

most phones that came out after the sg2 support it but AFAIK it mainly supports keyboards, mice, and usb drives. support it shoddy on anything else that isn't generic

@nik123 I mean most today's ones that aren't only made to be cheap.
Of course some old Android 3.0 device will probably not support it.

But even my 3 year old tablet has it, so I assumed it's normal nowadays.

Even PS3 Gamepads and I think Xbox 360 are supported out of the box. You can navigate through Android with it and a little amount of games support them. MyBoy Emulator even supports Xbox One Gamepads :)

Oh and then theirs Moonlight, the open source implementation of Nvidia's in home streaming. I played Rocket League on my phone with a gamepad.

@r4nter Wacom tablets aren't supported, though. They only work as horrible touchpads.

@divayprakash I have an Mi3 which i used for playing around but its touch was shit from day one. A few days ago it heated up and cracked the screen from inside. Now touch doesn't work. But it was a good phone. Some of the better ones from Xiaomi

Wow..great:)
