Any info on this would be well appreciated.
Don't know if this is already covered somewhere but I can't find it. I'm well gutted about this, Just tried watching a film on HTC ONE with OTG cable and it doesn't work. I get a warning notification saying " unable to charge device, please use supported charger " Gutted. I thought this would of been covered since the one-x supported OTG when it got 4.1 update. Also, don't know if it's related but the MHL (an official HTC 1) isn't working properly either as it did on my one-x. It wil be playing fine for 20/30 seconds and then cuts off for 10 seconds then comes back on. It's does this repeatedly which makes what ever your trying to watch - unwatchable.

Seem to be working now. Must of been the memory card adapter I tried, tried another one and ok now but still getting error notification " unable to charge device, please use the supported charger " Don't know what that's all about. Keyboard and mouse work fine with OTG, never tried them before.

Isn't the one purportedly MHL 2.0? Maybe the adapter needs to be different...

I just tried MHL on my One using the official HTC M490 adapter (NOT the M500 which I think won't work). I have no problems at all with MHL. It is stable. I don't know what difference MHL 2.0 makes, but I did notice that the phone seems to be capable of outputting something different to MHL out, vs what is on the phone screen.
For example, and I have no idea why, I seem to have a free copy of Thor on the phone under the HTC Watch application (freebie?). I found that when I choose Thor as the film, the phone screen is showing a synopsis, while the TV is showing a still frame from the movie. However, when actually playing the film, both are showing the same thing. Nevertheless it is a good indication that dual screen gaming applications may be possible for example.
Also tried the OTG using a Samsung usb adapter. No problems functionally but I can confirm the misleading error message about not being able to charge the phone. No problems accessing the USB storage though and Gallery automatically will find pictures on an externally mounted SD card.
HTC M500 adapter has 12 pins and was the adapter for HTC tablets (Flyer and Jetstream). The majority of connectors use 5 pins, except Samsung (SIII and Note 2) that uses 11 pin, which allows for MHL and USB OTG simultaneously.
Regarding MHL 2.0, it has the ability to pass 1080p video at 60Hz (up from 30Hz of MHL 1st generation) and charge up to twice as fast. Samsung SIV has it, but I haven't find anything official that shows HTC One also has it, or for the need of a different adapter.
All the MHL adaptors i've seen (mine included- Cablesson) have a micro USB slot so you plug in your charger* to that, then the device to your phone, and it charges as it outputs.
Are you all doing that, or trying to output with no charger attached.

I have no problems but to confirm the adapter won't even start-up if you don't connect the charger...it is totally ignored. I am assuming the original poster either has a bad USB/MHL port on the phone, or the adapter is slightly out of tolerance with its connections hence working on some phones and not others.
I've bought an adapter on ebay for my One X. Besides ths usb charging port having issues, it messed my One X usb port - it only worked with the adapter pluged in. I had to reset One X. So, mhl adapters can be really a mess.

First day with phone today so briefly trying lots of things, I had pre-bought cheap ebay MHL adaptor and tried it with a few youtube videos seems to work OK (confirm you must have a charger micro-usb MHL).
It did give about 20 secs of white snow interference at start almost as though it was tuning in channel but steady after that.
More investigations to follow I think.

Sucks that I don't have mine yet. I have two different MHL adapters I could try.
I just experienced the original "HTC AC M490" MHL-Adpater with my HTC One (Stock ROM).
It was working straightaway, but the device display as well as the TV screen where a little bit slow and choppy.
Is it possible to change some settings (like resolution or frame rate) to improve the performance?
THX
Edit: Is it MHL 2.0 ? (Regarding to this thread it seems to be only MHL 1.0)?

No, it isn't.
The S4 will be the first MHL 2.0 spec device.
Is there any way to set the output resolution manually to 720p?

With a custom kernel you can do this. Flar2 did this for the one XL, I see he's starting to migrate over here.

Yes obviously plugged the charger in aswell with the MHL. The picture is perfect. It just play's for 20/30 seconds then cuts out for a couple and just keeps doing that. Even though the OTG works I still get the error triangle in the notification bar, which I don't on my ONE-X, but I can put up with that.

I have a Tegra Note 7 and I cannot get the sound to work through HDMI. I connect the tablet to the TV using a micro HDMI cable and the video is fine, but there is no audio. Any solutions for this? Tablet is stock and rooted.

That's weird since mine has always worked fine, and there weren't any special settings to change or anything. I will say that the micro-HDMI port is kinda awful, and if the cable is wiggled at all, the signal cuts out, sometimes just the audio. You may want to troubleshoot by trying another cable and seeing if you have the same problem as well as trying this cable on another device with a micro-HDMI output, if any of that is an option.
Hi,
Can i use OTG while my note 4 is connected to TV? i want to use a mouse and a keyboard or a Controller while my phone is connected to TV.
and my mhl (it's 2.0 i guess) is slow, it has so much delay. It makes games unplayable on display, but everything is fine on my phone screen, it just has delay on my TV(delay, not low fps), my TV is 1080p.
edit: why isn't this thread getting any answers? is this anything wrong with my post?
I've tried a couple of devices that claim to connect V20 to tv by wired usb c to HDMI connector. They work for a while then the picture is lost or the phone itself freezes up. About the longest play I've gotten successfully is an hour but usually something goes wrong within 15 minutes.*
The phone has been out over 6 months now so I thought someone may have found a really dependable HDMI connector? I don't mind the lack of power in because I can always change batteries but phone should be able to play through HDMI long enough to watch one movie. That's all I really need hut I don't want to have to screw around with it 10 times to watch one movie.
Thanks so much for your help!
I've been wanting to make use of this feature, but haven't extensively yet. I have though gotten to make fair use of a micro-USB to HDMI adapter. A few trouble spots come to mind here.
Sounds like you're powering the adapter/phone from an external power source? How good is that power source? My micro-USB to HDMI was distinctly less reliable when plugged in since I was merely powering it from a normal USB port. Try running it entirely from the phone's battery. If this works better then it could be you really need a higher power source when using the adapter.
How good is your HDMI cable? Depending on how strongly the phone/adapter drives the HDMI signal, a lower quality cable could break the camel's back.
I've been running into a different bit of trouble with USB-C to HDMI adapters. I've found several of these, but whenever they've got a USB-C pass-through, the pass-through is strictly for power and does not carry the USB signals. The MyDP specification allows for USB3 to be passed through if 1 or 2 pairs are used for the HDMI signal, but allows for USB2 to be passed through no matter how many pairs are used for the HDMI signal. There are adapters which also include USB-A port(s), yet none which include an external USB-C with the USB signals. Grr!
I use C to HDMI not micro usb. V20 doesn't use micro usb. It uses slimport. I have one adapter which allows simultaneous charging and one strictly slimport C to HDMI. Both behave the same way. I have a high quality 2.5 foot HDMI wire.
Power source was Samsung tv usb powered output 1 amp. Point is I have the same issue with pure slimport and no charging.
The one that allows simultaneous charging does in fact charge and work but always craps out but so does the slimport C to HDMI.
Hmm, entertaining what you find when you do research. I suspect the V20 is using the "MyDP" specification, which is the official specification name behind "Slimport". Seems there are at least two other video out methods for USB-C.
I haven't done enough with the video-out feature of my V20 to have much experience yet. With a V10 whenever an adapter was plugged in without external power there were no problems, but when an adapter with external power was plugged in video wasn't reliable.
I'm interested in reading if you find out anything.

Sorry I haven't tried, but its seems to connect smoother the a wifi dongle.
does anyone know if there's a compatible dongle for the V20 with not only hdmi but also power input and usb host?
Happening to me too - Any suggestions
Your situation's description fits my problem exactly. I have a USB C to HDMI that was vouched as working by several V20 owners. I plug it into my Dell monitor to play games on a bigger screen. It works well for a while, then disconnects and popup on my screen says something like, "LG Bridge has stopped working do you want to exit?". Once this happens, it's almost impossible to get the V20 to share the screen again. It's not a hub, just a USB C (male) to HDMI (female).
I would like to share with you my setup which is like a dream come true. I have always imagined that one day I'll have single device that I will use throughout the whole day and now it finally is possible.
I bought an opened box HP Elite X3 Lap Dock of Ebay for 230 AUD in a pristine condition for my Galaxy Note 10+ (European, Exynos). Affter I have received it I had some trouble to connect my phone to the Lap Dock - the original HP cable was missing and the one from Samsung did not work. I finally figured it out - It has to be a USB C cable that will allow video transmission, quick data and power transfer - to sum up it has to be at least USB 3.1 Gen 1 that provides 5 Gb/s, 5V, 3A (Gen 2 provides 10 Gb/s). I bought https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B01GGKYT7M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 and viola it works!
It is almost a perfect solution - I have been able to switch from Windows laptop instantly, I have prepared a whole lecture with PowerPoint on this setup, I use it from time to time for gaming (love the PSP games and bluetooth controller). All is extremely compact, premium made and useful. The whole set combines: Galaxy Note 10+, HP Elite X3 Lap Dock, Amazon USB C cable, 8Bitdo, Samsung 45Watt Charger, and couple of extras like additional HDMI cable with micro HDMI adapter, USB C to A cable, USB C hub with HDMI, 2 x USB and USB C sockets and foldable bluetooth keyboard with touchpad. All of these fit well in a 11 inch Apple Macbook Air neoprene bag
Connecting the HP Lapdock to the TV with HDMI (using HDMI to Micro-HDMI adapter) and then connecting phone wirelessly with it allows to display on TVs without Miracast.
In order to get regular size font while using DEX I am utilizing MacroDroid macros: Receive Notification DEX App - Change system font to 1.2 and Remove Notification DEX App - Change system font to 0.8 (my default)
The known issues are:
1. Lap Docks speakers does not work - I had to change in settings of DEX and in Developer Settings not to route sound via USB and now when connected sound is played from the phone
2. Touchpad buttons are not recognized - it works perfect other than that (gestures, zooming, scrolling, two fingers for right button)
UPDATE
Audio via lapdock speakers works! - in order to make it work just plug in the phone to the lapdock without turning it on and then turn it on by holding battery button and power button simultaneously for 10 seconds until it boots. When its on in volume panel chose play via display device and enjoy B&O sound.
There is a bad news too - after updating to Android 10 the touchpad is practically unusable - they have change the way it operates and now it moves incredibly fast up and down an extremely slow from left to right - the only option is to use the phone as touchpad which luckily is very good.

Updated, matured setup:
I can't get my Aussie exynos to work unfortunately.
You have to turn of lapdock first, give it a 10 sec after it has booted than connect it with a usb c 3.1 gen 2 cable (a short one, cables longer than 1 meter seems mot to work) and it should be fine. I am using a 50 cm UGreen cable, sometimes it is required to hard reset the lapdock when it does not pair properly by holding the power button for 10 sec.
An Update:
Finally audio via lapdock speakers works - in order to make it work just plug in the phone to the lapdock without turning it on and then turn it on by holding battery button and power button simultaneously for 10 seconds until it boots. When its on in volume panel chose play via display device and enjoy B&O sound.
There is a bad news too - after updating to Android 10 the touchpad is practically unusable - they have change the way it operates and now it moves incredibly fast up and down an extremely slow from left to right - the only option is to use the phone as touchpad which luckily is very good.
Maybe we can send a request to Samsung to fix the problem with the touchpad because we are many users with it.
Anyone with the tab s (5e or 6). Can check if having same problem?
Thanks
Can you please check underneath your Lap Dock what the model number is?
E.g. V8H07UT#ABA or Y1M47EA#ABH, etc.
I am having the latter also with a European Exynos Note 10+ and I can't it to fully connect (no display).
Thanks!
I bought the HP Lap Dock V8H07UT#ABA for my Note 10+ Exynos (Portugal) and was never able to have it work. I bought many different cables but didn't change a thing. The same cables used to connect my Tab S4 (Snapdragon) to the HP Lap Dock worked flawlessly.
So you are very lucky to have a working setup!
Ok, I got seriously lucky.
Found the mainboard of the V8H07UT#ABA online, and it arrived today.
Replaced the mainboard of my Y1M47EA#ABH with it, and I now have a working Lap Dock with my European Exynos Note 10+. Happy camper here!

What kind of USB-C cable are you using? The one that comes with the Lap Dock or another brand? Is Developer Mode enabled ? Thanks.
Currently I am using a cable from Ugreen witch has a proper length and is very well made https://m.pl.aliexpress.com/item/32...detail&spm=a2g0o.cart.0.0.307e3c00rTzEtg&mp=1
It also fits in nicely with a magnetic usb c adapter that I have attached to my lapdock https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32985884761.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dZXuZyS
Just now I have found one strange thing - I have change the cable I used with and older one which was working fine and now it did not - what did fix this issue was switching the ends of the cable the end that was going into lapdock went to phone and vice versa. I know it should not make any difference since these cables are reversible but it did mabye that will help somebody.
Well, now we got wireless dex!
Upgraded set, now based on Nexdock Touch - https://www.reddit.com/r/SamsungDex/comments/jp7940/my_perfect_mobile_dex_setup_completed/
I am trying to make the Lapdock work with LG V30 - wirelessly I have succeded to make connection as a secondary screen - so the phone screen is projected to the lapdock.
Now I want to be able to use the keyboard and touch pad: I use a ugreen PD100W cable and I can get the notification on the phone that external kb, mouse and sound is detected. no image goes to the lapdock screen. Sound does though on both LG and HP elite x3.
I think the cable might be to blame...
I tried then to connect wirelessly - I can get the image on the lapdock, the kb even works, but I cannot open apps, no mouse is detected (touchpad does not work) Sound too.
Do I need a cable that says 4k on it?
lapdock 1 P/N - Y4T07AA£ABA
lapdock 2 P/N - Y1M47EA£ABU
I bought one then another hoping to make it work, but they have similar behauviour - when connectd via cable, the screen go dark blank, but I can see that it actually works, just a black picture is displayed
Also, anyone knows what is the difference between lapdock models above?
