Android Mini TV Help

Hey everyone.
I need some help with an HDMI- DVI problem on my MK808B Plus
Goal:
Connect my Android Mini-TV (MK808B Plus) to a specific PC monitor.
Problem:
Monitor has a resolution of 1440x900 and no HDMI.
Story:
I have an old monitor as described above that i want to use for a small project. This project involves an android device. I chose to go with the MK808B Plus. Knowing the connections available on the monitor, i also bought a Mini HDMI to DVI-D adapter cable. I hooked it all up and the monitor detected the input but wouldn't display an image. Just random lines sometimes and then black like it was attempting to connect.
I then hooked it up to another monitor via HDMI and it worked just fine. I then plugged it into the same monitor's DVI port using the adapter and the monitor seemed to see it, and try to display it, but to no avail.
I would like any and all help i can get with this problem. If need be i can even swap the android stick for another model as i have just purchased it.
Thanks

Anyway to backup with black screen/dead touch screen, no usb debug? HDMI to type C?

Hello everyone,
I would really like some help advice/experience from other here regarding the HTC U11. I was just using the device normally one day and the screen went black completely. I think the touch screen is dead as well, as it doesnt seem to respond when I attempt my usual pattern unlock from muscle memory. I am sure the device is still working normally as I had... accidentally connected to emergency operators, could still use Whatsapp Web and my PC does show HTC U11 but I am unable to change the option to MTP to transfer my files.
Does anyone have any advice on how I can access my data through enabling usb debugging/ changing the connection mode to MTP? Apart from repairing the screen only.
While I am not sure about the software options. I am attempting to output using a Type C to HDMI hub to output display and use a mouse to access the phone. Since it was rather hard for me to find answers about the compatibility and usage so I was hoping to get some experiences so can quickly attempt this method when the few cables I purchase arrive.
1) Are these type C to HDMI cables generic? I have seen some articles saying there are type C to hdmi with MHL and others with digital output and I confused if those I bought will work with the U11. (Seller says works to Macbook, Xiaomi, Huawei P20)
2) Are these adapters simply plug and go? Do I have to unlock the screen or install any firmware (as I clearly dont have a screen haha..)? Does this apply for both the HDMI output and using a mouse
3) Would I specifically need a SMART TV with HDMI to get output out or any monitor with HDMI would work fine?
If anyone have a working U11 and using HDMI to Type C would really love to hear from you!
Thank you for any advice/experiences in advice!

Broken screen need to copy data

I've cracked the screen on my HTC U11, the LCD is damaged so nothing is displayed apart from loads of vertical lines.
I need to copy the pictures etc off the phone, when I plug it into my laptop the phone isn't displayed in my computer. Pretty sure I need to select the connect as media device option on the phone when connecting to a PC.
Is there a way of getting my files off without replacing the broken screen?
Thanks

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
you could try in twrp if you have it. it autos to mtp

unfortunately it's all stock.
If I plugged a USB C to hdmi cable in and to a TV would it display the mess on the cracked screen or would it display properly on the TV?

Got round this by using a USB C to hdmi cable, while the phone was displayed on the TV screen I changed the phone to cast the display to my chromecast.
Unplugged the USB C to HDMI cable and plugged the phone in to my laptop via USB and enabled the prompt to connect as a media device.

If your digitizer is not damaged an external display should get you to see your display / select what you need to too move files but then again you can also just replace the damaged screen, if you wanted to keep the phone that is. Took me less then an hour to remove, replace and water seal the new LCD and digitizer on my U11 (parts from eBay for ~$60)

How can I display the broken phone screen on a computer?

Hello, I am a new user of this forum and wanted to find out is there an application for downloading on a computer that allows you to use it from the phone on the computer display? I'm asking because the touch screen it does not work on the phone and I have to enter an important application and make a copy backup and I wanted to do it on my computer.

if only touch doesnt work, use your usb C to usb adapter (came with the phone) or if you lost that buy a usb c to usb otg- adapter.
connect a computer mouse to your phone, don you use the mouse to click.
not sure if this works if you cant use touch on your phone:

last way would be using adb (please dig deeper in that topic by yourself).

Control phone with broken lcd

Hi
I have Galaxy Ace 4 (kitkat 4.4) with broken lcd. The screen is blank but touch should work. Earlier something was visible on screen and as I remember touch was working.
Moreover, the system had some failure due to permanent "application xxx stopped working" and factory reset should be made.
I would like to use this phone as wifi hotspot. Is there any way to access the phone after factory reset? I have found application like Visor to control android via usb on pc. But developer mode has to be enabled and I'm not sure if system should be rooted.
Thank you for any help

If you can still see the screen, but the touch screen does not work:
Buy a cheap USB adapter so you can connect a PC keyboard or mouse (probably a USB C to USB A adapter). You can buy these adapters from China on eBay for $ 1 (but you may have to wait a month until they arrive in the mail. In this case, buy from a seller in your own country). I suppose you have a keyboard or just use the keyboard and use the arrows to move and select things, so I think the Windows button will become the home button. Press Enter to select and Escape to return. Or you can simply point and click with the mouse. The problem is that not all phones support "OTG", so you may not be able to read the adapter. If so, then I think you have no other choice. . But most of the stores themselves definitely support 100% OTG, so it should work normally. The problem with Bluetooth is that you need to pair it first, which requires touching the screen. Therefore, if you cannot touch the screen, using a Bluetooth mouse or keyboard may not work
If you can't see the screen, but the touch screen works normally:
Unless you change the screen, don't think that there are many things you can do. Android phones that were previously compatible with MHL allow you to use a dongle to connect it directly to HDMI. But the cell phone no longer has that function. If you have a Samsung phone, I think you can buy a Samsung Dex docking station, which will allow you to connect it to the screen via HDMI. If you can install applications on your phone, you may be able to control your phone from your computer using a screen mirroring application (there are thousands of different software that can do this, but you need to install applications on your phone). Same as Google Chromecast screen mirroring. .You need to access the application on your phone to perform this operation. Therefore, there is nothing you can do except replace the screen. If you are lucky and your smartphone supports some type of HDMI dongle adapter or some type of desktop docking station with HDMI output, you can view the phone's screen and access it.
