Hello,

I have been trying to connect the Icarus Illumina 6" (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...?ie=UTF8&psc=1) to an external USB keyboard.

I rooted the device, and used a usb otg cable. It it did not work - the Icarus showed no sign of recognising the keyboard.

Is the Icarus hardware incapable of providing enough power in USB host model to power a computer? Or is it a software issue that could be fixed on a rooted device?

Thanks! :)
