Hey guys,
I'm currently struggling with my Huawei Mate 9 (PRO) to get output from it's USB-C to HDMI. I do have a specific post within the Mate 9 sub-forum and indeed even on Reddit but, I'm now beginning to wonder if ANYONE has got HDMI out of their Android phone from a USB-C port?
Have YOU got HDMI out of your USB-C phone? If so, which phone, version of Android and did you have to change any settings/install app? What was your hub and was it powered or not?
Thanks!

Hello Everyone,
So I've been seeking ways to do video out on the Thunderbolt besides DLNA. I came across a device called "Sewell HDdeck USB to HDMI Converter". I would post a link but I cannot do so yet.
It's an adapter that has a port for standard USB and the other port is HDMI. Does anyone know if something like this would work?

Think this would work
I don't believe this will work - If you notice it indicates it only works with the Samsung Galaxy S, which has a special multi function port - it is an enhanced USB that has additional connectors for the HDMI.
Hi all,
For those who want to use their smartphone through HDMI, I am using a targus adapter, there are many brands but it must be "DisplayLink" certified.
It works great and lag-free in general use but apparently runs at 30FPS in games.
I bought the used ACA40US targus model for 6 dollars on eBay because it was the most compact and cheap I found, but it needs a USB-to-USB-C adapter, I use a usb-c hub that I had from a previous smartphone and so I can charge while use.
In summary, to use the HDMI output on the realme x2 pro, you only need a certified "DisplayLink" adapter, a USB to USB-C adapter and the display link App, and activate the USB OTG option.
Optionally you can also use the App "SecondScreen - better screen mirroring" from the play store, to change the resolution and choose the best setting for your TV.
Some Targus already bring the adapter to USB-C or are directly for use with USB-C, but they were more expensive.

Cable doubt
Hello,
I bought an Xtorm USB-C to HDMI cable model CX2111 but I wasn't aware it need to be a DisplayLink certified cable. I searched a lot of the cable but cant find any related info if its certified DisplayLink.
I installed the DisplayLink app that you suggest, also the SecondScreen app and no signal, and I have a doubt.. you rooted you Realme X2 Pro?
I'm asking because I dont have signal on my TV or Monitor from Realme X2 Pro with Xtorm CX2111 cable.
Best regards

Hi! This could be OT, but can you share your wallpaper?
Sent from my Realme X2 Pro using XDA Labs
I tried this docking station
https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/solutions/acc100184/
everything works!
Lan, 3.5mm audio jack, all USB, Display Port, obviously DISPLAYLINK.
This is my experience.
Edit:
I had to buy a USB C male to USB 3.0 female adapter and enable the OTG settings from the smartphone...
Loved your wallpaper, Care for link? ?

Hi everyone,
Could anyone tell me what the requirements are for a USB-C -> HDMI adapter?
I tried a generic USB-C -> HDMI cable, and a USB-C -> hdmi/vga/DVI/usb hub, but both didn't work. "USB device not supported"
my huawei P20 pro works with both of them.
Any clue? what is the technical background behind this situation?
I have no idea what the required specifications are, but I can tell you I bought the silver one from here on eBay and can confirm it works if that's any help.

Mine works well with my not 20 ultra, but with my Tab 6 it does not. So i guess some brands and models just doesn't work well with it.
I have samsung tab s6 and have a dell usb-c monitor and the tab s6 cannot send video to it.
My oppo phone works fine.
I will try hdmi and usb-c cable when I get chance.

Hi.
Does Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G supports any HDMI adapter?
I want to connect my older, not smart TV to watch Netflix when I go to country side.

Bump.. @si3wc4 did you get it working? Anyone else?
Tested with a USB-C mini-dock, the Mi 11 lite 5G/NE doesn't have DP-alt mode, so it's not compatible with Type-C to HDMI cables/dock. The main reason for it is probably the lack of USB 3.1 (the connector is just USB 2.0).
Yes, that's one thing many people don't realize, a USB Type C connector is a guarantee of nothing.
The same thing goes for USB Type C cables.
If in doubt cut the cable with scissors and see how many conductors (pairs) it has. Of course this kills the cable.
If device is USB 2.0 the most video connectivity it might have would be to use an actual video adapter, but that is a separate frame buffer than the screen.
Unrelated: I use a Raspberry Pi Zero W connected over Bluetooth to my Android.
The RPi has an HDMI output I can use for my own digital signage style application.
The HDMI shows text and is completely unrelated to my Android's screen.
Hello guys,
I have Xiaomi Mi 10 (Model M2001J2G, MIUI Global, 12.5.2.Stable, Android 11 RKQ1.200826.002). It has USB-C connectivity.
So in the past I read more about USB-C to HDMI cable and I found an article which says my devices don't have so called "HDMI pass through", actually it is a feature but I can't recall its name right now.
So I decided to buy external video card in order to stream my phone through HDMI. I checked the internet and end up with this one: Display Adapter HDMI
I checked about the drivers and on the description of this adapter it says: "Support Android 5 and higher"
I have tested the adapter, and it seems to work fine with my laptop (USB connectivity), but when I connected my phone nothings happened.
Do I have enable something to get this working? What do I miss?
Thanks in advance.
