For starters, I'm glad you're enjoying the cynics ;-P

And yes,,, the BOTTOM of the trackpad 'CLICKS' and is what we were referring to as NON functional left/right clicking.

As for the display panel swapping. You will have a hard time finding a match (in gloss) with the same or similar power requirements. You will also have to be quite fluent in bench soldering proprietary connectors. If you are willing to roll the dice, please do entertain us with your endeavors. It would make a great sub-thread. =)

You might want to check some of the asian suppliers over at alibaba and go from there. Wholesalers won't deal with single purchase displays. There might be some floating around on ebay etc.

good luck.

Mine works flawlessly. Still on oreo. I have stopped using my laptop all together. It was pretty easy to do so just took at trip to DC and just took the phone and lapdock.

I have never been a can of track pads so the b km bluetooth mouse that I was using with my DeX do k I use with the lapdock.

I have not had any display problems or sound problems. Bougjt it on Ebay for under 200. BNIB

Email, browser, all apps work well. I have not tried to play games yet, but so far so good

Did anyone try the dock with the Note 8 or S8/S8+, after the update to Pie? Dex now works similar as it does on the Note 9, so I think it should work, at least with a US lap dock.

But before ordering one, I would like to know if there is at least a good chance it will work.

I already tried a European lap dock with my Exynos Note 8, which sometimes worked, but mostly the screen stayed dark. I could not find out why it did work sometimes. I tried hard reboots, a Thunderbolt cable, with and without power supply etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] server5:
I can;'t speak for the note 8 and Lapdock and didnt; even know it could be done without the DeX docking station looped in somewhere. However, what I would like to try/test is the new version of DeX Home which apparently is being worked on to address/fix the framework that got broke in Pie.

Via Reddit: Current version of DeX is 2.7.07.16 Only new thing so far was menu optimization. Can't find the APK yet but it would still have to be modified to install on top

It may work, doesn't seem to be a way to know if it will work or not with the Exynos models. It's a game of chance.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] bober10113:
lol ok:

plug phone to lapdock using the original lapdock cable in the left side usb c port.

if you dont you will need to find a high grade usb c cable or thunderbolt cable.(very important)

once proper cable is found and plugged in, hold the left side power button on the lapdock for a good 15 seconds till you see the keyboard back lights shine.

let it reboot for 2 or 3 minutes, dex should start
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] hloko:
I've tried this. Unfortunately it doesn't work. Anything else I can try?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] bober10113:
which cable do you have?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] hloko:
Have several high quality USB cables, tried them all. Testet them on my asus mb16ac, and they work fine with that.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] bober10113:
ok so it is not the original hp usb c cable from the lapdock package?

then that is your problem.

you need to find a proper cable. ive found a few on ebay. out of the 10+ i ordered. only 2 worked. one is rated super high speed 3.1 usb c and an other rated thunderbolt.

when you get the proper cable ,lapdock will work.

here is one of the 2 that i found online:

https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/253947734760

another on less expensive but only 1.5 foot long:

https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/253987259653

i cant find the super high speed data sync cable that also worked. it was white and was pretty thick. connectors also were bigger than a regular charge cable.

so that means ive found 3 that worked. but one thing for sure is that you have a better chance with getting a thunderbolt rated cable to work than just regular usb c.

also they must be straight cables. no adapters and converters... just male to male usb c.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] server5:
And bingo was his namo....
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] hloko:
Ok, the cables I have is SuperSpeed+ USB 3.1 Gen.2 up to 10 Gbit/s. I can buy a thunderbolt cable tomorrow and try with it, but got a feeling it won't work.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] bober10113:
you never know. also once plugged in, if you dont get an image after 30 seconds, hard reboot lap dock by holding the power button for a good 15 seconds till keyboard back light appears.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] server5:
Only Original cable or better. The specific bandwidth for these lapdocks and DeX are very specific
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] hloko:
Didn't work, bought a 35$ Belkin Thunderbolt 3 cable, and it's the same. Phone just says "HDMI connected", then "HDMI disconnected" and then "Check that your HDMI is properly connected".

And so i goes in a loop. Testet on my wifes Huawei P20Pro and it's the same there. It was maybe not ment to be:crying: Maybe try to sell it to someone with a snapdragon phone, maybe they have better luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] bober10113:
i dont know what to say... its supposed to be working.

again, are you holding the lapdock power button for 15 or more seconds after plugging the phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] MJWBuffalo:
Before you give up entirely, can you ship the cable to someone on here that has it working? Then you'll know for sure if the cable is working.....

MJW
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] server5:
There are essentially three possible points of failure for this kind of setup. You would need to isolate which one before you can fully deem the LapDock as "not working"

Failure points:

1. Lapdock Hardware / port issues etc..

2. Using Non original or OEM Cable that comes with the LapDock

3. Note 9 hardware / Software failure ie. DeX not launching or conflicting app etc..

Things to check:

1. Is your SnapDragon Note 9 able to run DeX on an external 1080p monitor via USBc to HDMI?

Yes? Phone and or OS - "Okay"

2. Since you don't have the original OEM cable you will not be able to rule out or test for that.

Next is the LapDock:

3. PRESS AND HOLD the POWER BUTTON ON THE LEFT FOR 15 SECONDS TO EXIT STANDBY MODE (KEYBOARD LIGHTS FLASH ON) THEN PLUG IN YOUR (NON OEM) USB C TO USB C CABLE TO THE LEFT OF THE LAPDOCK FIRST THEN THE YOUR NOTE 9.

REBOOT YOUR NOTE 9 WITH WIFI TURNED OFF AND SEE IF THE MAGIC BEGINS.....

also check your note 9 charge port. many people keep their phones in the pocket and the ports could be full of lint. blast it with canned air just to be sure.

good luck

Hi all,

I just got my HP Lapdock today and tested with my Note 8 updated to PIE that no longer needs an official Samsung dock. Was happy when the screen came up and DEX kicked off despite saying it is not a genuine Samsung accessory - the phone is also charging too. However, the keyboard and trackpad isn't working.

Has anyone seen a similar issue with the Keyboard and trackpad? I can probably get away with using a BT Mouse, but carrying an extra BT Keyboard defeats the purpose a bit.

using model V8H07UT using the original USB-C cable that came with the Lapdock.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] bober10113:
hard reboot it(15 sec pwr btn).( please read the past comments pages for the details)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] bchliu:
OMG! It worked!! Thank you so much! I am loving this update and the lapdock. Works like I've always wanted. lol.

I can confirm the V8H07UT HP X3 Lapdock model is working fully with the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 (Australia) with Exynos and the latest Android Pie update. - all working: Video output, keyboard and mouse (Typing on it now!), phone charging. Using original included USB-C to USB-C cable.

I think moving forward, any galaxy phone that supports the DeX protocol natively and now older galaxy phones updated to PIE.x will work with the LapDock.

I've not been able to get sound working. I have the US Note 9. For some weird reason, I do hear notifications through the lapdock. I've tried both the smartthings switcher and the second app thing. Any pointers are appreciated. if I hit the volume menu, I can see a separate volume slider for media and for the lapdock itself.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] robtrevino:
It is worth noting I tried it with my wife's note 9 and I was able to play YouTube videos with sound through chrome. Only once though.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] apatcas:
hard reboot the lapdock by holding the battery button and power button for about 10 seconds. Select display device as audio out. Select it by right clicking on the sound indicator in dex. To right-click on the lapdock just tap with 2 fingers.

This is the only way I have been able to reliably make sound work.

You need any Dex dock or a USB C dock with HDMI and USB A as well as a couple short cables. I am using Micro USB Female to USB-A male and micro HDMI female to full HDMI Male.

My Configuration w/ Samsung S10+

HP Elite x3 Lap Dock

V8H07UT#ABA

Samsung Galaxy S10+

Verizon Unlocked(SM-G975U)

Android 9 Build ASD3

One UI 1.1

Cable I use

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07PQRPTRM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

What works with the S10+

Dex and screen are always perfect

Trackpad with taps only, 2 finger for right click

What rarely works

Sound, either on phone or x3

I have the dev option to not reroute USB audio, yet every single time

I plug in there is no sound, I have to hit smartthings to route back to the phone

and if I reboot the x3 multiple times, sometimes I get audio on the lapdock.

What works with my GPD Pocket 2(Windows10)

Everything! every time, it works perfectly without

any interaction, literally plug and play.

Yeah. Glad it works, but most people don't know how to actually do a hard reboot on the lapdock. Probably most people think it's just about holding the power button for 15 seconds. I know someone that worked at the engineering department at Hp, and he's told me that the only true hard reset is the way I did it. And since no one seems to care, I'm just gonna delete my posts.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] bober10113:
there's a difference between literacy and caring. but yeah i tend to agree, the bulk of people on xda only make accounts to get other people to give them personalized help without reading/searching. very reminiscent of pre school. and then there is the xda moderation and 'laws and conduct guides' that we have to respect.

its hard to respect these guide lines when it protects the shallow minded and the laymans.

there should be a system on here where you can say what you want when you have given enough in return. there should be threads where anything goes and if people don't want to get their feelings hurt, then just don't go or read that thread. i mean it takes human interaction to open and read contents of a thread. so if people willingly go and participate in that said 'adult' thread, then they shouldn't complain or report.

what i hate even more is double standards. some might report users for misconduc/language/racism but then that same user will say crap about how they self diagnose them selves as OCD just because its trendy to say so. Well what about people that actually have the real medical condition, its as hurtful as racism is you ask me. but i guess we are still living in the past.

anyways i know all this has nothing to do with the topic at hand, nor for the reply( well the 1st paragraph was part of the reply but the rest is my rantings), but thought I'd at least get it out there.

Use Hp Lapdock as Wireless screen

Hi

I like to share my experience

1st

Power your lapdock and wait till the connection screen appear

2nd

from windows 10

press (Windows key + K) to open wireless screen option

Hp lapdock will appear BUT before you chose it do the following:

change the projection mode to "second screen only" for better result and Privacy

check in the "Allow mouse, keyboard, touch and pen input from this device" option

Now chose the HP Lapdock and Have FUN :o

Not Work

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] stari4ek:
Hey guys. I wanted to share interesting observation I accidently found out today.

I have "Y..." version of lapdock (and exynos note9) which doesn't work - black screen and phone complaining about hdmi.

Also I have HP Chromebook x2. When I connect lapdock to it using original lapdock's cable - it's identified as second screen and chromebook tries to use it - but still black screen. But, if I switch resolution to lower one - it works!

640x480x60Hz -> works

720x480x60Hz -> nope

720x576x50Hz -> works

1920x1080x60Hz -> nope

Is there any way to control resolution/freq for dex/hdmi output for Note?

Did anyone tried to output video using thunderbolt from other divices to lapdock?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] bober10113:
whats ure usb c cable like? orginal Hp or aftermarket
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] stari4ek:
hmm...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] bober10113:
opps guess i missed that.

anyways when you do plug it, do you hold the left side power button on the lapdock for a food 15 seconds(no less) till the lapdock reboots and the keyboard backligh lights up?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] stari4ek:
yep.

Tried lots of variants.

My point was about lapdock working with other hdmi source (chromebook), when it doesn't work on specific resolution/refresh rate but does work on another.

usually it can happen if 2 devices did not finish handshake properly or, for example, whole connection (cable, controller) can not satisfy bandwidth requirements
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] bober10113:
for me, i know that my note 9's usbc port is faulty. i have to hold the cable a certain way sometimes in order to get things going if hard rebooting the lapdock dosent work.

same goes for file transfer. crappy usb c port.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] server5:
grab some rubbing alcohol and a flattened q-tip and clean the port.

Also, try blasting canned air into the port first. Tons of pocket debris can block the contacts. If the port has truly gone bad, take note (pun intended) that its one of the easiest repair jobs as that part is likely modular.

look at a youtube disassembly of a note 9, i believe the port can be swapped out.

good luck
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] bober10113:
been like this since 1st week.

i think once i had it plugged in and fell a sleep and must have rolled over it and screwed up the port.

i did the same on my s5... lol except on the s5 the port was completely broken.

thanks for trying though.

its going to push me to get a note 10 lol im always looking for reasons to upgrade

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] server5:
On a hunch, something you could try. At times my DeX desktop screen would flicker on and off on occasion.

I decided to squeeze the USB PORT so as to make a tighter connection. Just use needle nose pliers and *carefully* and pinch slightly on the OEM cable and power USB cable. Problem solved.

Failing that, try running on safe mode and then connect to DeX.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] chesus05:
I tried everything with my s10e, nothing works.

I borrowed a S9+ from a friend, and works like a charm. Instantly connected...
