more than half of the Android phones have the USB limited to charging only. some can be modded with USB OTG driver apps once you gain root control, some are physically limited. Many tablets seem to have better luck.
The Bright Tab V90 works well with a good OTG adapter. (there are also re-brands of this that I assume are the same)
Just be careful to not use it on the old black cased RS as it a 0 drag brake setting gets applied as 80% drag brake. I know this from personal experience. The oldest version of the Hotwire app worked fine before the updates though.
