Honor View 10 supports Reverse USB Charging - Honor View 10 Guides, News, & Discussion

Just found out that the Honor View 10 supports reverse usb charging other devices. Check out the 4th option in the screenshot below. I haven't seen this advertised anywhere as a feature of this device, which is a nice addition :good:

Surprise
Guess what's more i always use this feature to connect my 2tb portable hard disk from an otg to copy my data... But it drains battery very fast ☺.

This is actually a USB-C feature, so its no way Honor should call this as phone's feature. When you connect two USB-C phones, the user should have an option to choose power should go from which phone to phone...
Btw, we have USB v2.0 (of April 2000) standard and not even USBv3-2008 standard... I hope Honor will address this in their next iteration

USB OTG not working

Hello there,
unfortunately, I couldn't get USB OTG working, even though it should support it according to various spec pages.
My setup is following: LG G5 <-> USB Type C to Micro USB adapter <-> Micro USB-OTG adapter (2.0) <-> USB 2.0 thumb drive (see attached picture)
The light of the drive is not lighting up. So maybe the G5 isn't powering the device?
I've tried three different USB-OTG adapters without success. All three are working on a G4 as well as on a Nexus 7 (2012) flawlessly.
The USB Type C to Micro USB adapters should work as well. Charging (normal and QuickCharge) is working perfectly fine, even ADB does as it should so the data pins should be connected. However, both adapters lack D+ and D- pins for USB 2.0 on one side. This should not be a problem, though. (see attached picture)
Did somebody succeed in using OTG in a similar setup?
The usb c to micro adapter is your problem
Hey budd

Is it because the USB controller needs to be configured to be in OTG-mode by using another resistor value?

Do you know whether they comply with the USB 3.1 specifications?
I have the same issue so i used the usb type c to micro adapter on an usb cable and it connected to my computer just fine and i could transfer data is it still the the adapter?
You do know they have started releasing type c OTG cables and adapters without the need of converting from micro usb to type c, right?
See the pictures below. These are just some of the types you can get, soon enough there will be more types of otg and more adapters for type c usb
If not then see the links provided
According to their titles, it says that they comply with 3.1 specs..

Hope this help :good: and also, let us know, if you decide to buy it, how it goes. Chances are very high
Thank you for your reply .
I am aware of those adapters, I just hoped I would be able to use my OTG adapters I already had at home. I'll try to buy one later that year and will report back which one's working…
Hello, sorry for my english, i'm from germany! But i have found the problem, why you can't connect to the usb storage! If I disconnect my sd card in the settings and connect my otg device, i can find the usb stick! My lg g5 can only connect one device in time!
Not the adapter ...
I was on lineage OS until end of May and did not get the OTG working with any adapter what so ever.
OTG worked with the Stock Kernel and now I am running Resurrection Remix' version of April 8th 2017. Since Resurrection Remix is based on lineageos - as expected - the OTG got broken in later Resurrection Remix releases.
So something weird happened in the firmware between April 8th and now.
This one works perfectly.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B019XSJGN6
Any news on LG G5 and broken OTG?
i have the same issue, i can connect my G5 with Adapters to my PC... there Data Transfer is working
But no usbstick or usb led or usb mouse is running with choetech or anker usb adapters.
i also tried this one
https://www.amazon.de/Adapter-CHOET...id=1498804949&sr=1-18&keywords=choetech+usb+c
it seems that the usb devices are getting no power from the usb port

Tried many adapters that claim to be h850-OTG-comaptible (have now 8 of those). It can't just be the adapter, because earlier version of Lineage OS and RR worked and still work.
But I am glad that you have found a solution for yourself

I've already poked our G5 maintainer about it and he'll investigate the issue when he gets back from vacation in a bit over 2 weeks. It has to be something that LOS changed upstream and he'll try to work it out when he gets back
The same issue here. When I first time connected OTG adapter G5 showed notification about charging and when I clicked that it could be changed to multimedia device or something similar. It connected the USB key successfully but disconnected few seconds later. Never ever got this notification again when connected any other USB keys. Nowhere in the settings can be found any USB options.. Any idea how to fix this?
I have the same issue.
I have a number of usb c otg adapters and devices. Like cameras (endoscope). Drone telemetry receiver. Programmable LED spinner that uses an android app.
All of these things worked in the past. Connecting to my LG G5 resulted in a popup where I would choose which app to run.
Now when I plug anything into the usb port using an otg configuration, nothing pops up. Nothing happens.
Phone still charging ok via usb.
Hello all
I finally gave up on OTG, after having bought 8 so-called LG G5 compatible OTG adapters for half a fortune
BUT for everybody who is in the same big despare as I was, I - by chance - finally found a great solution for myself.
"SanDisk Connect Wireless Stick" with integrated WiFi (mine has 32 GB), provides copying, streaming and whatsoever to your phone - simple and simply genius.
see also:
https://www.sandisk.co.uk/home/mobile-device-storage/connect-wireless-stick
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sandisk.connect
Plug it into the PC and use it like a normal USB stick and connect to Phone via WiFi and optionally share with other mobile devices.
For home internet you can even use the stick and WiFi at the same time. Whoever invented this gimmik may have been aware of all our issues.
Just works like a charm. Unbelievable!
Instead of waiting "til kingdom come", stop posting, complaining, waiting - at least I will stop, because obviously nothing's going on in this direction.
A little Addition: when you have IP-config (or similar) installed on your LG G5 and you open IP-config
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.paksoftwares.ipconfig&hl=en
then connect the WiFi of the PC to the SanDisk Stick and type the gateway-address shown in IP-config into the URL-line of your browser
You can then transfer data between phone and PC directly via the SanDisk Connect WiFi stick ... how cool is that?
Mine works fine. Had issues with certain kernels though...
Bump
Still same Problem in RR.
The Adapter works in TWRP version 3.1.0.0 but in the newer versions also not.
I don't even get a pupup and devices Art n't powered...
Is the typhon kernel capable oft handling otg?
my experience
I am using the stock Android OS 8 on an LG G5 from Fido in Canada, specifically the “LGE LG-H831” variant according to the Google Play Store. I have a microUSB plug↔full-size USB Type A socket USB OTG adapter from StarTech that works with my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 but I needed a USB Type C plug↔full-size USB Type A socket USB OTG adapter now that I have switched from the Galaxy Note 3 to the LG G5. I bought five of this model of adapter (in red colour) on eBay for only around 5 CAD total including shipping from Asia to Metro Vancouver, Canada, which took between 20 and 30 days but buying this type of product on eBay from Asia cost way less than buying it locally:
https://www.ebay.ca/itm/283235483653
Sorry, I got ahead of myself in writing my story because I am tired and I did this USB OTG stuff at least a week or two ago by now. I have two models of microUSB socket↔USB Type C plug adapters, one black one from StarTech and one white unbranded one that may have been included with the LG G5 but I do not know for certain because my father gave me this LG G5; I am not the original recipient/user of this LG G5. I could not get any of the USB devices I tried working with the LG G5 with these two types of adapters connected together. I tried with a USB SSD, a USB keyboard with a microUSB connector (so actually using only one adapter in this case), a USB keyboard with a normal full-size USB Type A plug, and a USB↔Ethernet adapter. That is why I searched the Internet and found this topic. Then the adapters I linked above arrived. With the adapter I linked above, all of the USB devices that did not work (other than the keyboard with the microUSB connector) now seem to work with the LG G5. I was not able to network the LG G5 via Ethernet in the time I had available to spend on that project but I think this was only a software problem because the hardware seemed to be working. When I say the USB devices did not work with the LG G5 with the old adapters, I mean nothing seemed to happen when I connected the USB devices to the LG G5 using the old adapters. With the new adapter, the USB devices seem to work when connected to the LG G5 without any special action. I upgraded the stock OS on the LG G5 from Android OS 7 to Android OS 8 before I began seriously using the LG G5 because I did not want to lose the time customising the software if the in-place upgrade of the OS failed. Almost all of my experience with the LG G5 is with the stock Android OS 8, not Android OS 7 nor earlier versions. I have not and will not try to replace the stock OS on the LG G5 because I had a bad experience with replacing the OS on the Galaxy Note 3 even after I reverted to the stock OS. My LG G5 seems to still be unrooted, which seems to not matter in practice for my use case so far.
I purchased a USB 3.1 docking station model T3527-VIII+ from ineo on Amazon. USB 3 to type C adapter comes with it. I use the adapter with my LG G5 RS988 without a problem. Devices are: regular USB drives, USB keyboards and USB mice.

Mate 20 Pro, PC Mode: resolution and cable?

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.

Question Asus ZenFone 8 flip + portable usb-c monitor won't work?

A few days I am testing my new Asus ZenFone 8 flip and every day I find more and more things that disappoint me.
So today I've found out the phone doesn't support connection with my portable monitor with usb type-c (you know, this new generation of fancy slim monitors).
I plug in the phone expecting screen casting (mirroring) to the monitor but nothing happens.
I looked through Settings, including developer settings and found nothing that can address it.
Am I doing anything wrong?
Or this just proves again my conclusion that Asus did not bother to develop a decent device to the price?
I m the same, it does Not have usb to hdmi feature (The zenfone 7 pro does). It doesn t even have the feature to stream audio on 2 bluetooth devices (only samsung and xiaomi do) despite is bt 5.2. Then it doesn t have optical stabilization (7 pro does) despite it has the best electronical video stabilization I ve ever seen. But only the optical one let s you avoid warped picture during fast movements. This last feature wasn t a surprise but the rest were. Sadly.
Pretty sure the Zenfone7 pro also did not have HDMI over USB as the port is 2.0.
Very disappointing but the list of expensive 2021 phones with USB2.0 is really long...
ps weeks ago my zenfone 8 flip just died. Without ever being dropped or anything. And I didn t do backup of the stuff in the internal memory.

Question ANYONE KNOW WHY MY GOOGLE SUPPLIED USB 3.0 TO USB-C ADAPTER (DATA TRANSFER TOOL) WON'T ALLOW DEVICE TO CHARGE IF PLACED IN THIS SCENARIO?

I really need to call my Doc and schedule my next lobotomy, cuz this isn't making sense. Why is Google's adapter different from one I kept back from one of my many Samsung handset purchases?
If anyone knows the answer to this hardware riddle, or has had a different experience with their OEM supplied "Data Transfer Tool" , I'd love to hear about it before I have this procedure done! (ty)

Negative, or at least mine doesn't. But the Samsung adapter I've had since selling my SM-N975U1 (Note10 Unl.) does let the charge happen with no hassle. Also, I try think this might be one of our fixes forthcoming (I hope) under a blanket USB-C fix? My Pixel 5a (5G) had no issue with the Google adapter for charging as I recall.
If you're talking about the adapter that came in the box (male C to female A), the USB-A cable you're using could be the problem. Even when cables have pinouts for pass-through power they don't always work for all devices. This article explains how the Pixel 6 is more fickle about charging, which also hints at why you don't see the same problem on a Pixel 5a.
Thanks for the link...I knew my 5a adapter allowed the charge, so my issue may be broader as I was using my Google supplied cables. Wonder why the G-Whiz kids couldn't accommodate us on a more universal adapter as they didn't spring for throwing in a power supply on the Pixel 6 Series deal?!
What's that little birdy, what did you say?chirp..cheap..cheap!
Did you not want to use the USB-C cable that came with your phone? Or you didn't have a charging brick that has USB-C?
No, it charges fine with the supplied OEM cable, it's just I've never used one before that was made to be so task specific. I thought (until now) they were all made to be multifunctional like my Samsung model is.

Question How to use our s23 Ultra as an android PC ?

Hello everyone.
my phone died at the same time as my PC last month (a coalition).
I bought the s23 ultra for its power hoping to be able to use it as a phone as much as as a PC (android pc).
Could you tell me what hardware is needed for this conversion (I already have a Bluetooth keyboard + mouse) ?
Best regards
Here is my setup (plug in a monitor for Dex to get a more desktop experience)
Dock 1 - (pictured) https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B095F4FZZY/
Dock 2 - (Raised) https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B08PFC2ZW9
Both of these have HDMI out and also plenty of extra ports for connecting things.

I had something like this and it works great if you are just wanting to hook it up to Dex. I have something similar and is great to have.
I switched to the Dock style like I linked because it allows me to use the phone without the need of an external display (but has the option to use one).
Either solution would work great and the best thing is you can plug in full size Mouse and KB to either option if you do not want to stick with the BT KB if it is not full size.
Thank for answers !
I've got something like that !

I don't know really what refresh rate is supported by our S23 Ultra
There are a lot of options to use S23U as an Android PC.
You can use a USB C dock. There are some docks that are more designed for desktop setup to be PC. I would suggest getting something that has passthrough power charging since there is only one USB port. Technically you can use Qi charging pad, but wireless charging tend to make batteries run hotter, which can shorten the life the battery in the long term.
Since Samsung has Dex on many of its phones, you essentially only need to hook the phone up to some kind of display. After that, it's about making it a better experience. This is connecting a keyboard, mouse, and so forth. I personally like Logitech ERGO K860 keyboard. Ergonomic, but has Bluetooth and a wireless receiver, and can be synced up to 3 devices. The Logitech MX Anywhere 3 Compact mouse it nice. Small, thus very portable. Also can synch up to 3 devices.
There are also lapdocks such as NexDock and Uperfect. These are basically like laptops but with no central processing or storage. They're a keyboard, mouse, and monitor. They're still pretty early in the product cycle and haven't gotten to a general population use. I have the Nexdock Touch and NexDock 360 wireless. They work very well, but there can be some quirks. The phone is all the CPU, GPU and storage. Most modern phones released in the last few years have the power any decent laptop; maybe more powerful in some cases. These can run $250-$600US, which some argue you can get a cheap Chromebook or laptop. The nice thing, when you upgrade your smartphone, you're "upgrading" the power of the "laptop". With NexDock, you can access the internals, which means, in theory, you can replace the battery. If true, it means you can keep/use the lapdock for years. I think YouTuber, JuanBagnell, does a good job explaining the pros and cons of lapdocks. He focuses on most people's everyday and most likely uses. He does not use the usual benchmarks; it's how certain programs actually perform. He has reviews of several Nexdock and Uperfect. YouTuber, ETA Prime, has some interesting reviews on some of them too; he is more gaming focused
You are going to want to read/watch information on Dex. It's one of the more "refined" desktop environments with smartphones. It's not like ChromeOS. Google hasn't only recently started to add a desktop environment to Android. It has a more Windows feel to it. Not apps play nice with it. Also realize, this is Android based. Thus, you're not going to be able to use Windows or MacOS applications. It has to be Andriod applications. Some apps have incorporated the desktop environment. Others not so much so they can look weird. Some applications are designed not to work in the desktop environment. On a side note, you don't have to use to Dex. There is an option to mirror your phone.
If it wasn't for a few specific Windows-based applications, I could literally ditch the home PC. This is why my home PC is very small and not a powerhouse. I recently upgraded to a Minisforum with Ryzen 9 integrated H6800 GPU from the NUC11. The GPU was an issue with a couple of applications I run and was starting to get annoying.

question more,
does s23U usb-c support display port 1.4 or 1.2 ?
Should buy probably this one :

Looking for this answer too, did you find which DP version S23 Ultra usb-c port supports? 1.4?
I don't think the S23 is purely dependant on the USB C adapter being HDMI or not. There are USB C to DP adapters. I think it's more, does the hub support the output of the S23 into a DP signal that the display will accept.
The VGA thing, that will probably require another adapter since you're going to need to change a digital signal to analog. I haven't checked in quite some time, but you may have some luck finding an adapter with HDFury. I used them a long time ago for HDMI to Component video (RGB). It may be kind of pricey.
