USB OTG not working on Xperia XZ

I have several micro USB memories, and I wanted to use them on my brand new XZ so I got a USB C to micro USB adapter.

But it is not working at all. I tried with several memories and with an USB mouse, all of them verified to work on my previous Xperia T with no problem.

I connect the USB C to micro USB adapter and then the memory to the phone, and click on "Detect USB device". After a while the result is always the same: "No USB device detected".

I tested the USB C to micro USB adapter conecting the phone to a PC and it worked fine.

Am I doing something wrong?

I own an Xeria XZ with android 7.0 (39.2.A.0.417)

Thanks in advance!

for sandisk OTG, you need to restart your phone with OTG connected. But you need to restart everytime you connect to OTG

I Have the same problem. everytime i connect it i need to restart to start using my OTG.

Is there no other way? Should i try an original sony OTG? where can i find it?

Thats not good. 

Previously my z5 dual was able to detect it directly.

XZs manual says it will show notification when attached with otg. 

There is some problem with update
