Usb otg not working since oreo

Hi if you are on the latest oreo and using Xperia x compact  pls can you all test otg!

I cannot use it as the MTP option isn't available, so when I plug USB otg in it does not detect. 

No problem with charging 

Also MTP option is not available on connecting to pc, only Transfer protocol for moving data.

I was able to use it b4 updating but only been able to test it today as the otg usb stick broke b4 updating. So 1st attempt at using otg after updating and this problem arose 😞

Just connected my USB stick via USB-C adapter cable to my X Compact:

It was detected immediately and I could access the files on it, so no problem here with OTG.

By the way, I'm on 34.4.A.2.32.

34.4.A.2.19 on X with perfect otg connection

Software is the same

Seems more and more a hardware issue.

The OTG works fine on my devices as well. Running the .19 software and using a 1$ adapter from a chinese website.

Thanks for trying 🙂 

I did purchased a cheap adapter thinking it would work but not compatible I suppose This is what I got, but doesn't work for xperia x compactThis is what I got, but doesn't work for xperia x compact

It isn't faulty tho as it works in my wife's phone which is a Samsung a5 2017.
