I have the G Tablet with the Zpad dock running Vegan. Love the ROM and it runs great. I just recently hooked it up via HDMI to my LCD TV (why I waited who knows), but I have a basic question:
Can I turn off the G Tab display while docked?
I want to hook up a bluetooth keyboard and basically pass signal to the TV, and I don't want the unit display on if possible. No big deal, but just wondering if any of you guys have a solution?
Thanks!
Not as far as i know. Im sure somone who knows java could write an app for it.
But why do you want the display off? You could put it in a media cabinet or maybe behind your tv if its the light that bothers you.

can you help me. I have the dock and my gtab (running smooth_bean rom). but when I plugged in the HDMI my tv wouldnt recognize it. what settings do we have to change on the rom so the tv recognizes the tablet??? Thanks
Can anyone give me a good solution for mirroring my android screen on my big screen tv? I've tried using MirrorOP and cloning my screen to a PC laptop and then plugging that in via HDMI to my big screen TV. Two problems there; one, it lags and two, it won't rotate to landscape mode.
I'm trying to play Final Fantasy III using my Kindle Fire for control and my big screen TV for display. There are DNLA solution but they won't work for games, only media.
Airplay on my appleTV with my wifes iphone 4s works exactly the way that I'm trying to duplicate with my Android.
I think you could try mhl adapter that you could buy to your device specific model if found so write in google you device model number followed by mhl adapter and see

I already have a tablet that will plug into a tv wired (ASUS Transformer). I'm going for wireless.
Gooday. I just got my Beelink GT1 and it's a fantastic little box with just one con so far. The mouse cursor on my 55" TV is tiny and tends to disappear. Im using the supplied remote which is sooo slooow plus a Logitech USB wireless which moves good and fast but of course still the tiny pointer.
I have googled like crazy and find it is a common problem apparently without a solution that works for Android 6x OS.
Has anyone solved this problem without risking bricking the box?
Cheers.
Hi !
Before buying the pocophone F1.
I need to know if we can connect the phone to hdmi tv.
MHL ? dp alt mode (display port alt for android)?
Is there any way to display the pocophone on tv ?
I want to use this feature to play emulator on big screen, and on the go.
If someone can try this for me... Thanks !

There is a "wireless display" option which will allow you to mirror your phone screen on your wireless TV. The image quality is not the best but it does the job.

That function works really nicely with my Chromecast.
I gather (though I've not tried it) that usb-c allows cabled screen mirroring too, if that's your thing.
Hey ! thanks for your answers. i don't want a wireless solution (already have a chromecast) but too much lag for gaming...
I need someone to confirm (and tried it) that i can connect a USB to HDMI cable in order to mirror screen the phone on tv.
Thanks
@F4T4LITY
As above, I've not tried it, but here's an interesting link to some info on usb-c and Alternate mode. It kind of suggests that any phone with usb-c, given the right cable can do the trick.
This would do it, I reckon

Thanks for the link buddy ! I check that !
EDIT : it's not for all phones, the usb c port of the phone need to be compatible with alt mode (display port alternative mode), then just a cable usb c to hdmi will work.
But with all my research i can even know if the poco f1 hac a usb c port supporting the dp alt mode...
I saw an interesting way, with display link adapter. It s usb external graphics cards, mirroring your phone on tv. But the problem is, with android phones and this technology, you can't mirror on tv AND charge your phone at the same time... :/
If someone has tried something else to connect the poco f1 to a tv.
Let me know, even if it s a fail !
Thanks guys !
EDIT 2 :
For information : I bought my poco F1, i ll get it tomorrow with the hdmi adapter.
I will post you the answer to the question : is the pocophone capable of mhl, dp alt-mode or hdmi out.
i will give you also tomorrow the links to the cables i bought for the test.
If the adapter doesn't work, i will buy a Display link technology adapter, then i will say you if we can charge at the same time as mirroring to the tv.
See ya !

OK i ve done the test ! the USB C to hdmi cable DON T Work with pocophone F1 !
There is no MHL, Dp alt mode in the pocophone !
I will buy now a display link device (usb external graphic cards) to mirror my phone throught HDMI.
I ll keep you informed if i can mirror hdmi AND charge at the same time with the "display link" device.
See ya !
Missed it by that much....
I tested mine out on USB-C to HDMI this morning too but F4T4LITY beat me to it....
Confirming it didn't work...
Bummer! Wonder if some bright spark might work out a kernel hack or some other workaround to get this working? I just found a thread on Mi forums asking about it so plainly others are interested...
Might be worth submitting a feature request for a future update. Do other Xiaomi phones have this?

unfortunately, it s a hardware issue... in the poco F1 usb c. none update can change that.
But For info : I don t need to buy a display link hardware. I bought a Chromecast ULTRA (with the ethernet port) and it work flawlessly even in gaming.
My poco F1 >> Wifi 5Ghz >> Chromecast ultra (ethernet)
I can mirror my phone and charge at the same time ! no more problem here for my use !
It s a shame to don't have mhl or hdmi on phones today... it must be standard... but i got the chomecrast backup solution so... it s ok.

#ro.hdmi.enable=true is commented out, maybe some can investigate what it does if enabled
any news yet?
I'm interested too.
Up .. Any news ??
Sry guys nothing works with cables for now...
Got the ultra chromecast solution and sincerly it does the job. I can play ppsspp, or gamecube, psx,...... Full speed even on tv (wireless) or on the pocoF1.
Found out Poco doesn't support TV out after I bought it. My USB C-HDMI dongle was working flawlessly with LG V20 but not with Poco F1. My Tv doesn't have WIfi inbuilt so can't mirror wirelessly either. Bummer! Now only two options are there either buy Miracast/Chromecast dongle(wireless) or Displayport dongle(wired). Removing important useful functions doesn't really make cheap phone appealing.
Edit: Also, I found these dongles for cheap online. If any one has one can he/she check? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/NEW...splay-Graphic-Adapter-for-PC/32824881352.html
Got some USB-C earphones, it was a whim, they also aren't supported by the USB-c port....
This looks to be another cut corner to reduce the price , though is it hardware or software?
There may be a chance if it is only software....

Is there any noticable lag with this solution?
Hello XDA!
I pre-ordered a Mate 20 Pro. I hope to use it as a desktop PC replacement. Using the PC Mode, or Desktop Mode, or "Easy Projection" as they call it.
I'll use a big UHD TV in place of a monitor. And Bluetooth keyboard & mouse.
And it should even be wireless! (using Wi-Fi, and maybe Miracast if TV supports it, not sure)
But do you know what resolution will it support? Will it output UHD/4K @60fps? Wireless and/or wired?
And what cable should I buy? USB-C 3.1 to HDMI 2.0? Can you recommend one from Amazon?
Thanks!
I am unsure about the new wireless solution I know that it uses Miracast if the TV supports it. Else it uses a Huawei adapter (which I suspect only contains a Miracast adapter for the TV) Miracast supports up to 1080p according to Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miracast
For wired solution you should check the mate 10 forum there are discussions and recommender cables for that. Also it sucks a lot of battery. There are special dongles that allow easy projection and charging at the same time. Many only allow slow charging speed so the phone still drains battery while charging. There are some special dongles that allow fast charging. Look out for these.
Thanks Alfred!
Good point. Maybe a cable that supports charging like ref. B07F9WDS87 on Amazon ?
Also, maybe a wireless quick charger? There have been rumors of Huawei soon offering a 20W.
And regarding the max resolution using cable, you think Mate 10 users will have an answer? Maybe Mate 20 has been upgraded on this part? (max resolution for Easy Projection output)
I'm not 100% sure about "easy projection" but for samsung dex, I've tried a few cheap cables/adapters and didn't work, finally this one worked okay and it's a reasonable price ($20), I'm almost sure it would work with "easy projection"
Could not add the link but this is the title: "USB C to HDMI Cable([email protected]), uni USB Type-C to HDMI Cable [Thunderbolt 3 Compatible] MacBook Pro 2018/2017/2016, Surface Book 2, Samsung S9/S8, Dell XPS 13/15, Pixelbook More - Gray -6FT/1.8m"
Also bought a Logitech K380 BT keayboard on eBay for around $12
Hi all,
I can confirm Wireless Projection works absolutely fine, but I haven't checked the resolution as yet.
One strange thing however is that I have yet to find a way to use desktop projection via USB cable - perhaps in an OTA

But let me guess.. ur device Ur using either telly or monitor supporting Miracast right?
Thanks @vwite, I ordered the UNI cable. And a Logitech K830 keyboard, with an integrated touchpad/trackpad.
Thanks @Wiggz! Very annoying that you can't find how to connect by cable It's very unlikely that the Mate 20 Pro will be able to output [email protected] over Wi-Fi Miracast while there's hope with the cable link.

Yeah [email protected] does not seem likely wireless. I originally bought the cable for the Note 9 but I'll try to see a difference with the Mate 20 Pro between wired and wireless and if I don't notice any difference at all I might actually return the cable.
Just as comparison, Note 9 has the option of mirroring screen wireless but if I play a video is choppy, while if I use the cable for DeX it seems more fluid. Even if I end up keeping the cable for a fluid experience at home, can't deny that being able to "turn hotel TV into basic PC" when traveling with either just the keyboard or ONLY the phone (using it as touchpad and touch keyboard) seems amazing.

Well it theoretically is possible. If you search the Wi-Fi Alliance website, from the page about Miracast, it says:
Streams HD and 4K Ultra HD movies from a tablet to an HD television
Seems like the device should be certified Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Miracast™. And I don't know if the Kirin 980 SoC is. All I found is it supports Wi-Fi 802.11 ac and the Hi1103 chip is able of a theoretical peak download speed of 1.7 Gbps.

I could not find much either about its GPU, the Mali-G76, besides it supports 2 displays, obviously. The main display on the Mate 20 Pro is 3120×[email protected] So is it able to drive a secondary 3840×[email protected] display via USB-C?

I've received my Mate 20 Pro but could test only wired projection on 1080p screen.
I don't have yet a Miracast enabled TV or receiver, neither a 4K screen.
Btw, desktop mode looks promising I could launch a ton of Chrome tabs and not notice any sign of slowing down.

Frame rate is barely less on wireless than wired but there is a delay. Is not bad at all though but I find using my laptop thunderbolt dock for the odd shopping spree works well
However it does not support ultra wide resolution. My 2560x1080 monitor shows as 1080p

I just tried it using the Huawei Mate book USBC dock, and can't get it to output 4k to my tv. Only seems to output 1080p..anyone else had any success?
The chinese Huawei online store (Vmall) has a miracast receiver from Hagibis that claims to work in [email protected]
I haven't found any user review that explicitly says it works in 4K tho.
If anyone's interested, the model is Hagibis WFD0535G.
Hello to all who are using the Huawei Mate 20 PRO in desktop mode using EMUI 9. The maximum resolution I can output from the Mate 20 Pro is 720p. Also, the functionality of the apps-O/S available is very limited such as taking screenshots of the desktop, multiple windows of the same app like MS-Word/Excel and comparisons between full PC app functionality to mobile app counterparts. Huawei's desktop mode is Windows 95 all over again but for a docked mobile version of the PC hardware in the 1990s. It's going to take at least a good 5, 7, 10 years before DEX or EMUI desktop mode reaches the level of a PC/laptop level.
EMUI 8 - I was able to get 1080p on my external monitor. With the EMUI 9 OTA update, I can only output 720p on my external monitor from my Huawei Mate 10 Pro. Talk about going backwards!!! I was on chat with Huawei support. They reported it to their internal team. Hopefully, it's something they can fix or patch.

Nevermind. Wrong post. Moderators please delete.
Nope
It supports 1920x1080 only. It won't do t 2560x1440, 2560x1080, or 3840x2160. It won't do 1920x1200, either... I tried them all.
Dex does 3440x1440 and 2560x1440. It won't do 4k. It also won't do 3840x1600, the nice new ultrawide resolution.
