I have seen movies on youtube about connecting a usb stck to a samsung galaxy s 2 phone. As far as i can se you need a usb micro B male to a USB A female adaptor. However when i connect the adaptor to my phone nothing happens.
whereas acc. to the youtube movie "Samsung Galaxy S2 USB OTG demo " of NZtechfreak you should see a usb host cable connected message in the host tray. However i don't get such a message. when i then connect my 40 Gb lacie mini disk (which as far as i know works as a general USB stick) i won't be able to find that also. I also checked on my computer and it is formatted.

I also tried with a real (8 Gb ) usb stick, same problem.

Can someone help me?, I think i'm missing some applications maybe?

You need an actual usb otg adapter (http://www.dealextreme.com/p/micro-usb-on-the-go-host-otg-adapter-pair-50774).
