An app I downloaded told me that my phone is OTG capable, but it still doesn't work.

Then I connected hotwire to my work device, a Galaxy note 3, and it connected to my ESC instantly.

I was going to say some horrible thing about Tekin for such a poor explanation of this system. They say it should just work?? I went looking for an OTG, and neither Best Buy nor the Verizon store knew what I was talking about. They're so cute when they're confused....

But regardless, they should do a better job explaining what OTG is and give more detailed device compatibility. As it is, they don't really provides specs for anything they sell, but that is another issue altogether. If they made a test app to determine if your phone will work before you buy the ESC? That'd be great....

Maybe I missed it but have you tried your razr with the lipo powering the ESC while you are trying the app?
