Nice one.

I've tried a few different methods but nothing yet.

There should at some point become a standard, I just hope they don't actively block displaylink, can't see that but you never know with Google..
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] jamhtcman:
Thanks for all the info! I used your advice to get a displaylink device for my Nokia 8, for info I used this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01B5RN9ZY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It was works with HDMI (with sound) and the ports. Interestingly it does have a DC jack so I wonder if this could provide power to the phone...?
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
The power input usually is for the device as it's got parts that require power, luckily for us the OnePlus has enough juice to run these devices with no power needed.

A few of my devices has power inputs but up til now, none of them have gave anything back to the device.

Such a shame as normal hdmi hubs actually allow two way power flow, it's just this recent change by Google, I seriously hope they revert it for future phone, the latency (input lag) is a lot less apparent and the device can be powered, plus they're cheaper.

For the OnePlus though I fear it's a lost cause.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Froschface:
Your link is dead.

Also, as far as I know charging while in OTG-host mode is impossible on the OP5; at least with the currently available kernels. So, while your adapter may support it, the phone itself won't.

Other phones, such as the OPO (OnePlus One) or Xperia Z5 compact, had custom kernels written for them that allowed for charging in OTG-host mode. Until such a kernel exists for OP5, charging while using USB devices simply won't be possible.

Also, because it is relevant to this thread: I am cross-posting my post from another thread. A cheaper alternative to docking stations.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] talz13:
I just got my RayCue displaylink to hdmi adapter today, and installed the app... Looks really good, latency is SO MUCH less than miracast, but it looks like the edge of the image is cut off. I'll have to investigate what display scaling setting is currently on my projector (LG PH150B), just wondering if anyone else has seen this.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Not personally but it's more than likely to do with the refresh rate allowed. Not too sure if it can be altered.

Should be 60Hz
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] talz13:
I did figure out that it was the aspect ratio setting on the projector... It was defaulted to 16:9, which cropped the borders all around, but changing it to Just Scan fixed it up!
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Did the refresh rate change ?

I thought that the phone's screen was 16:9

Also if you want to reduce input lag then turn off all post processing effects, if there's a game mode on your projector turn it on, it'll help a lot, chances are you'll never be able to turn them all off but you should be able to see some, tru-motion etc. Things like that.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jeroen Tilmans:
Does this work on the oneplus 6?
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Should do mate, displaylink works on pretty much anything.

I'm not sure but it's possible that normal hdmi may work on the 6, haven't used the device so couldn't say for sure..

Displaylink certainly should.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] urwifeismyslave:
does this transfer sound to your screen as well?
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Yes it does.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kairos48:
I have been waiting for newegg.com/global/tr/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA6PF3WN2462 . I have mi 6 and want to play Pubg mobile on bigger screen. I searched a lot for displaylink technology and found out this thread. I will share the result when I receive my order.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Ok so looking at the website. It does not say Displaylink so you need to confirm that your device actually supports normal USB to HDMI because if not I fear it may not work on your device.

I've never had your phone so you need to confirm.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] fredonaldo85:
Hi there

Does somebody know why some apps like Molotov the (which is an app you can watch TV with) doesn't mirror.

I mean, I bought the USB type C to HDMI with displaylink choosey. Everything works fine except this.

I also try to go directly on the legal websites to watch TV online but it doesn't work neither
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
That's odd?

The only thing that didn't mirror for me was zsnes which is a SNES emulator, think it had to do with the refresh rate

Give another hdmi and another tv/monitor a go, it could be that.

I'm not aware of any DRM or the apps being able to block content just because of displaylink.

Websites almost certainly should work.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] fredonaldo85:
option in my app I can enable/disable "DRM L3". It can solve problem like having sound without image (which what I face after mirroring my OP5 but not what I have without mirroring).

I've just tried to use another monitor. I have the same problem.

Actually, I don't understand anything because let's say I've tried with 2 channels. With my app "Molotov TV", I have no problem to watch TV directly with my phone but I have sound without image if I mirror my phone (I mean, if there's some adds or some text around where I should see my TV, it will be mirrored but nothing about the main source. But I've just realized that going on the legal website of the Channel 1 works like a champ but going on the legal website of the Channel 2 doesn't work (same problem as what I face with my app).
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Must be the app causing it to not work.

Perhaps an older version may work?
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] alckanso:
Freezes after a while

I just received a Targus Traveldock and I am using it on a OnePlus5.

Everything ok by now, using Sentio Desktop or SecondScreen app, and even tested that charging with Y cable works. The only thing not working is Ethernet (a know limitation on Android app).

I am using Android Oreo 8.1.0 Beta version.

The problem is that after a while using the dock, the cellphone freezes, with no visible error.

I tried to power the dock and change cables, without success. I am using the DisplayLink Desktop (Demo) as the driver, not the presenter.

Another thing that I have noticed is that after using the dock, the sound on the OnePlus stays "off", like if I had a earphone connected (simbol on status bar).

Any clues to solve this issues? I really loved it connected to the screen. Really really fast.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
This issue was apparent on android 8.0 but it appeared to be resolved by 8.1 and it certainly worked perfectly on lineage / AOSP.

Make sure youre not optimizing these apps to save power, ie: displaylink or any other. Keep phone awake in dev options.

Nothing more you can do with it.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] alckanso:
===

I took off the optimization from the Sentio App and Displaylink App. Also changed advanced settings to remove the two otimizarmos there.

For now, it seems to be much better, although it froze and then got back.

Really thanks for the advice.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
No worries mate..I had the phone freeze issue on the OnePlus. Doesn't occur on other devices and it is widespread across other adapters.

If you're rooted then jump on an AOSP / RR / Lineage ROM and you won't have that problem.

The latest xXx NoLimits was what I was using and I didn't have that issue either, which was 8.1 at the time.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] alckanso:
More tests here and it seems that the displaylink driver app is being turned off every a while. The dock stops sending video signal and then I click on displaylink app and it just turn back.

Another thing is that the sound doesn't seems to go through HDMI cable, continuing to play on the smartphone speakers.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] n00b_dr0id:
Hey! Did it work? I am looking forward to buy one.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Have you disabled audio routing in development options?

Also what ROM are you running? As I said.

Lineage and AOSP ROMs will work and this issue won't occur.

I also didn't have a problem on NoLimits either..

I would recommend using one of them or keeping digging, i had the phone for a year and was one of the first people to find out that this device would support some kind of HDMI out, it was deemed that the OnePlus 5 simply didn't support it so I tested displaylink..

Give lineage , AOSP, AIKP, RR, DC. Any of them or NoLimits a shot and you'll be fine.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] alckanso:
I had disabled auto audio routing through USB in order to get a solution for the problem on audio after disconnecting the dock. I will try again later.

I read about displaylink docks long time ago, but hadn't have the chance to try it out, because I wanted to buy the Targus traveldock because of portability (the are some available wavlink docks on AliExpress, for example).

I didn't try on Lineage OS and others yet, because I want the dock as a general alternative to a personal computer. So using a solution without too much changed from original ROM would be the best. I am now using the official Beta from OnePlus.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Then use no limits
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] zetapulse:
Howdy,

I'm looking to get a displaylink device for my 5T (rooted but still stock OOS). My main issue is that my (DVI-in) monitor's resolution is 2560x1600 and I can't find the max res on the Targus adapter that was recommended in the OP. The other adapters reviewed in this thread are just short in height. Any clues?
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
I don't think you can pick and choose pal. I think it just scales as is .

On my Panasonic viera TV which is 1080p and 60hz. I get just that.

I have a Acer Predator z35 which is a super wide. I'd be interested to see what that scales to and it's capable of 200Hz.

Res on that is 2560x1080 ultra wide 35"

Lol I've talked myself into it.. :D

Will test when I get in..
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kaskouy:
Ordered the same product, main issue it keeps being detected as an USB key, Display Link app won't recognize it...

Any input ?

I'm running rooted latest OB18
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Did your follow the steps in the OP?

There's a USB switch in developer options, make sure that's on
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Aanze:
Hey thanks for feedback, you mean usb debugging right ? Because its enabled.. as well as otg in advanced settings
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
No no. Sorry I don't have this phone no more.

It's in advanced I think?

You need to turn it on, allow power through usb I think..

edit: Ah perhaps otg.

Ok so then I'd say perform the following.

Clear all data on the app then uninstall the app.

Turn off debugging.

Disconnect your hdmi from the dock and any other connections.

Reboot

Redownload the app

Open it and allow it asks for in permissions

Go to apps and disable optimise for the displaylink app.

Connect up an hdmi cable which you know works, also turn the TV on it's connected to and switch it to hdmi.

Finally turn off otg

Reconnect your phone to the dock.

Do you get a prompt? If you do then you should be good.

If not then disconnect, turn on otg.

Reconnect the phone to the dock.

Do you get a prompt? If you received a prompt then you should be good.

The only other thing it could be is the cable in use I've seen some issues with certain cables, the TV / monitor, or the dock, make sure that you don't have anything else connected.

Get another device and repeat all the above steps including the app.

Most devices should work with Displaylink.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Aanze:
Hmm will search for it, sure is not "OTG Storage" switch ? Because I have it on already.

Will continue messing with options
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
I updated my response mate
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Aanze:
Well thanks for the help, I think I'm cursed with this thing.

Followed your steps, only prompt I get when reactivating otg option is "browse the USB storage".
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Ok so can you change the default usb type in development settings to charge only..

Then repeat.

Also do you have any usb devices connected to the dock? Remove them.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Aanze:
No luck either. I'm not working with a dock, I went for a much cheaper device that was tested by JDGz in page 4 of this thread:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0792PZRFT/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

But I might have received a slightly different model that maybe doesn't support DisplayLink technology ? I think I will return it and try with a real dock.

Anyway, thank you so much for your time and help !
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Doesnt look like displaylink mate.

Won't work
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Aanze:
Indeed, weird thing is that this product was reviewed as working on this very thread.. hence the confusion.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
No idea pal, all I know is, for the one plus 5 the dock has to be Displaylink compliant, you wouldn't have a problem returning it either..

Opt for a device which definitely says Displaylink or it simply won't work.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Aanze:
Yep, seems that I'd have to find and explicitely DisplayLink compatible device. Thanks mate !
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Removed device from OP.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
This is the one I use

https://www.ebuyer.com/764596-targu...gdbqJhl31caOxH03ZKDRnLB7MmRcKts8aApDbEALw_wcB

You'll need a USB-C to USB-B converter.. It does not charge but it does work perfectly for your needs and it has USB slots available.

Plus it's quite small.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Aanze:
Looks nice thanks !
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] eipok_gamer:
Hello team,

After a lot of tests and different devices to make the OnePlus 6 be connected to a screen while it is being charged, my conclusion is that the best combination is the following:

- Screen Mirroring through a Google Chromecast: the performance is kind of the same compared to just play in the OnePlus 6 itself.

Here you can find the evidences:

OnePlus 6 and Dolphin Emulator - Mario Kart - Mirroring with ChromeCast Test:

watch?v=widA7EX4OUs

OnePlus 6 and Dolphin Emulator - Smash Bros - Mirroring with ChromeCast Test:

watch?v=0D_Af8YQutY

PS: I am not able to put the link of the video properly as I don't have 10 posts. Just put both parts together with youtube.com/ and you will get the video link.

Hope it helps!

Anyone used this? Does it work?

and does it work with the ethernet connect at the same time while connecting to TV/monitor?

Plan to buy this to connect to my phone(OP5) to PC and then record gameplay using elgato capture card + using ethernet connection.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] eipok_gamer:
Hello team!

Just to mention, that I have tested the a MHL adaptar with the new OnePlus 7 Pro, and it worked like a charm -> Charging and mirroring at the same time.

Sad that I only achieve mirroring (not charging) with the OnePlus 6 :(

[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Good to know.

Glad they returned to MHL.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] oVeRdOsE.:
yeah good news.

I can't wait to use my cell phone as a desktop.

I do remember when Motorola tried this with the atrix. On of the first to have a descend device for the time with the possibility to use it as a laptop. Unfortunately, android wasn't really compatible to do your ''everyday stuff'' on laptop mode.

Even with the DEX on newer samsung devices, its not perfect, but really usable tho.

Having a USB-C HUB + OP7 + keyboard/mouse + two 26'' screen + Android Q (more desktop usable) , it would be the end of the 3000$ Surface Pro 6 for me.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dlads:
Yep I got a p20 pro at the moment. When I actually have EMUI installed it includes a very decent desktop mode.. it's impressive. But definitely not good enough to keep me on EMUI.
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] eipok_gamer:
Hello Overdose,

That setup looks awesome! Keep us posted on how it turns out at the end.

Thanks in advance,

[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Lasisi:
Please read carefully it is different from other cases..

I just got my new phone and it is Honor 5x, I set it up normally as you do on any new phone before using it. I had not done anything else at this point but follow the directions given and the phone was behaving fine. There was a software update and I started it, but then when it went to reboot, it stayed frozen at the Honor logo screen. I have tried various things and looked everywhere. I tried going to the Emui menu and I tried the "factory reset" option and it got up to 15% before saying that it failed, forcing me to shut it down. No matter how many times I try to reboot the phone, it stays at that same logo screen. If I press the volume keys and the power button, it takes me to the download screen but does not pass 0 . I have tried to manually install the update by the use of an SD card. When I tried it after I mounted it on the card, it got to maybe 10% before saying the software update failed and forced me to shut the phone down again. When I tried recovering from the erecovery menu, after connecting to my wifi, it said it failed to get package info and again I had to shutdown the phone. I tried redownloading the update and doing it again incase it somehow downloaded wrong on my laptop but it still has done no change. The farthest I got was when I put the update on the SD card before it failed. I need a solution please help me it's been days and i havent found something yet
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] clsA:
Well I have no idea how much experience you have with Honor phones but you do realize that their are no less than 6 varent of this phone

Are you sure your downloading the correct files for your model?

Are you using the dload/update.app method to update?

Did you unlock the bootloader?

Flash TWRP?
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Abhaypraseeth:
try booting into huawei erecovery and pressing "flash latest firmware and recovery"
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Lasisi:
This is actually my first time with huawei devices but i made sure i downloaded the right firmware no result!!

Also unlocking the boot loader asks for stuffs such as build no device id etc but i dont know how to do this because the phone isnt booting up

About flashing twrp I have no idea what this is about but i think it also has something to do with unlocking bootloader which i am unable to do without getting the phone to boot to homepage

Thanks for d reply how else can you help me pls!!
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Lasisi:
I understand booting into erecovery but i dont understand pressing flash latest firmware and recovery please expanciate. Thanks
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Abhaypraseeth:
i mean to say this see the attachment you see the second option that is the one to click and then it will ask to connect to wifi and then it will start downloading (aprox 10mins) and then install the latest firmware and recovery (be warned this will wipe your device and upgrade to latest version and you will lose root and twrp:good:)
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] clsA:
he said he already tried that

[MENTION=8528358]Lasisi[/MENTION] list your phone model and the file your trying to use (a link)

Also list what software version you were on and what the update is listed as

are you putting the file update.app in a folder called dload on the ext_sdcard and rebooting to erecovery by shutting off the phone and then holding volume up and down and power all at the same time ?
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Lasisi:
Yea... I have done this too and I was able to connect to wifi but when it is about to start downloading it will say failed to get package info instead of downloading it.

Someone said probably the os has crashed and non of this will work...
