Hi All
I'm moving over from a P20 Pro and can't seem to get my USB Type-C HDMI/VGA adaptor to work. I'd like to mirror the screen to a PC monitor which has both HDMI and VGA inputs.
Any comments gratefully received....
Cheers
Steve
You can't use any USB-C to HDMI adaptor. Mi9 has no support for it.
Hi @davfiala
Thanks for your reply. I've bought a wireless->HDMI adaptor from fleabay so will test that when it comes.
Cheers
Steve
Chromecast or similar would work
Thanks @rajanm1
According to the ad, it supports EZCast, DLNA, Miracast, EZAir (Airplay)
I'll post up when it arrives.
Cheers
Steve
Hi All
The wireless adaptor arrived today and it works just fine using MiraCast. I bought it from fleabay for just under £7.00 and it looks like the attached pic.
The instructions were in Chinglish and the text was 3 point in size, so I found this excellent guide:

If you want one, just search on fleabay for AnyCast.
To cast your screen, go to Settings->More->Wireless Display.
What I really wanted was a landscape camera for my LCD monitor, but the stock app doesn't rotate the camera so it's always portrait which is the same as the P20 Pro :crying:. Open Camera works well in this case.
So I just need 48MP RAW for 3rd party apps and bob's yer uncle
Cheers

A quick update on this. My LCD monitors are pretty old and only have DVI and VGA inputs. They work fine with my laptop and a HDMI->DVI adaptor but the Anycast dongle doesn't work at all. After a bit of googling I found out that there are DVD-I and DVD-D standards. DVI-D is a digital standard and DVI-I is digital and anaolog. I bought a DVI-I adaptor but still no joy.
The fix was to buy a HDMI->VGA adaptor and a female->female HDMI gender changer. This works great and is powered from the HDMI port.
So now I can cast the Mi9 to any LCD monitor
So the setup is AnyCast dongle -> gender changer -> HDMI/VGA.
For info, the HDMI->VGA I bought was like the attached
wish xiaomi would stop cheaping where they shouldn't . hdmi over usb-c would not have costed them much to implement. they want to be in 2019, but still use 90s tactics

can u pls post a picture of whole setup? I want to do the same with redmi note 7 pro, thanks
Hi sorry I don't have the setup any more, but it's really simple.
The Anycast USB plugs into your phone via a USB-A->USB->C adaptor.
The AnyCast HDMI cable plugs into the HDMI gender changer
The HDMI gender changer plugs into the HDMI->VGA adaptor
The VGA plugs into your monitor
Hope that helps
Steve
HDMI is good for me with global but not with the last update : 11.0.3. I go back for fast game (60hz).

Huawei P20 Pro EMUI Desktop mode & Dell D6000 dock - USB keyboard and mouse wont work
I have a Huawei P20 Pro and a Dell D6000 USB-C dock, which comes with HDMI, 2 x displayport, Ethernet and multiple USB3.0 ports. I find when I plug my phone in to the D6000 dock the following happens:
- It comes up "fast charging" (not "super charging" like it does with the Huawei native charger plug). It is great that it supports more than base USB charging however!
- The desktop comes up successfully on the HDMI port only (not the displayport ports) in 1080p, the native resolution of my monitor. The video is clean and stable, even watching Youtube videos in 1080p
- The USB ports appear to be non-functional - I cannot get a keyboard or mouse to work which is the most pressing issue.
- The Ethernet port appears to do nothing, so I have to use Wifi.
I also have a Dell DA200 USB-C to HDMI/VGA/USB/Ethernet adaptor - this works fine with my USB keyboard and mouse with either an HDMI or VGA monitor in native resolution, but of course it cant charge the phone. The Ethernet port is also unusable.
Finally, I have a USB-C to Displayport adaptor - this works with either a DVI-D and VGA adaptor plugged into the end, but it doesn't have USB or power.
Desktop mode on my phone appears to be quite heavy and will run the phone from 100% to flat in about an hour - so it isn't really a sustainable solution without power. If Huawei could do something in the OS to make it work natively with a Dell D6000 dock, including Ethernet, USB, Displayport multi-monitor, etc, that would be fantastic. I wouldn't need a Windows machine - this thing is pretty much as good!
Ideas anyone?
Use a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse?

I connected both and they did not work on desktop mode, they control the phone side.
I am using a Tuwejia adapter from Amazon and am currently using a USB keyboard and USB mouse. The keyboard is an old Dell keyboard, I think 12 years old, and it is the big one with volume buttons on top along with two extra USB ports in the back. I have the mouse attached to one of the USB ports on the keyboard so I'm only using one USB port on the adapter. Phone never goes below 100% and it went from 96% to 100% within 10 minutes even though I was using it as a computer at the same time, hooked up to the big 4K montior via HDMI (but it still shows at 1080p). Keyboard and mouse both work on desktop mode and phone side.
All i found yet is that the Dock have to be USB-C 3.1
I Plan to buy the P20 Pro in October and also looking for an Dock with USB Hub, Ethernet, HDMI/VGA to use it als PC with an VNC like Client.

You might want to wait for its successor instead as the year is almost out by October.

The Mate series is a bit too big for me. P series suit me better.

Picked up this usb-c hub off Amazon.ca for my MacBook, works with my p20 pro, hdmi, USB and flash cards. Haven't tried ethernet however I have used keyboard and mouse all this while using the USB C port as a pass through power for the device.

Hello!
Has anyone tried any MHL or Slimport adaptors in this device for wired connection to a HD TV!?
I currently have an RNE-L23 and I am willing to purchase one of this but Im not sure if they'll work.
Thanks in advance.
im pretty sure these standards dont exist in usb type c adapters, any usb c to hdmi adapter should work fine, maybe look at something that is compatible with dex
Why do you focus on MHL ? I bought an affordable USB-C hub (20e), I so far only tested it on a VGA monitor with an adapter. Everything was fine. That's great a smartphone less expensive than Samsung Dex ones offers such feature.
Hello! i do not mind what kind of tech is. I just want to know if the Mate 10 lite can be connected to a HDTV using any wire or dock so I do not have to buy a TV Box for my Kodi.
It would be nice to know which ones work on the Mate 10 Pro.
I ordered one from Amazon UK, this wants to work (I see the Desktop Mode) starting up on the TV but then it loses signal and starts searching for a signal. I see the output on the screen for a fraction of a second and then it goes blank again and starts searching for Video Signal.
The one I bought was this (Which is going to have to be returned): Amazon £9.99 USB C Hub with HDMI
Do you mean to plug phone into tv? Usb c to HDMI cable works but can't charge at same time
No need for a hub
Hi, I have the same question but Huawei Mate 10 Lite don't have USB type C, it has MicroUsb.
Bought a Y cable, with USB c on one side and HDMI and USB A on the other and the phone can be charged in desktop mode.
I have a usb-c dock (amazon) and a usb-c to HDMI wire. I can charge at the same time the phone and I can use usb mouse and keyboard too.
It was less than 7 euro, btw.
Lite version might not have Desktop mode or USB TV-out at all.
Is it possible to use lets say a Lenovo USB-C docking for the S10?
No it's not
I use the HP G4 dock with my S9. I would assume it would work for the S10. I hope it does, because I will be upgrading this week.

Dident work with the Lenovo docks at work. No signals to displays...
Buuuut...now that I think about it, i dont think it had any monitor on the HDMI output. Only on DP and VGA I think. Might try again tomorrow with something on the HDMI.

BTW. Does it charge with the G4 dock?
Yes it charges, has ethernet, displays, and works with my keyboard and mouse. Sound works from the dock, but not through HDMI.

Everything works as it should with HDMI plugged in. Charging and sound to :good:
Yes, any sort of USB-C dock with HDMI out should work no problem.
i use this one : https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B07919ZNB4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
And Its works !
its a Hub too so you can plug a mouse and keyboard but also a RJ45 that as been recognized by my S10+
and as you can see there is a USB-c PD port to charge your phone while you use it as Dex !
Lenovo USB-C HUB C109 model
Hi guys, I have HP G5 dock and woks fine only with FHD LCD. I use at home ultrawide monitors and both available ultrawide resolutions are in grey in settings. But works great as an USB-C power supply for DEX station :laugh:
Hi everyone !
I have been using Samsung Dex with a type-c to HDMI cable on my 4K TV and it worked flawless. It's great and smooth.
I wanted to do the same at the office with my computer monitor. Since it doesn't have any HDMI input I bought a VGA to HDMI adaptor.
When I connect my phone to the VGA to HDMI adaptor using a type-c to HDMI cable, nothing happens. It seems like the monitor doesnˋt recognize the S10.
Has anyone of you succeeded in getting Dex work on a VGA monitor ?
VGA cables can't output 1080 if I remember correctly
Hi,
Could you please le me know which HDMI hub or cable (usb-c to HDMI) you use to display the mobile screen on TV?
I bought an UGREEN, model CM314, with HDMI Port 4K x 2K/60Hz which unfortunately does not seem to work.
Please check photo attached with the image displayed on the TV after connecting the mobile using my Ugreen hub.
Any recommendation is very much appreciated.
Thank you!
Hi emiorosa,
i tried this adapter with my 8T with success.
Amazon.com
I connected the monitor to the dongle HDMI port first and then plugged it into my phone and it worked.
the VGA connection flashed my phone display on the screen but then disappeared so that didnt really work but HDMI worked great.
It seemed like it reduced the refresh rate to 60hz though.
