Im looking for a device that will charge have usb ports for keyboard and mouse and hdmi out to a tv. that way I can use my Nexus 4 running ubuntu touch as a computer. Any ideas?
As much as I would love something like that, I just don't think it exists sadly

It's not possible to have HDMI out and USB access at the same time. (Not to mention, the Nexus 4 doesn't even support USB-OTG without a custom kernel.)
What you would have to do is get a SlimPort adapter and a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.

The only device I used that was connected via HDMI and used with a bluetooth keyboard was the Motorola Atrix.
what about this one?
It's an Android dongle, you connect it to any TV via HDMI, you plug it to a power source, and voilà
Android KitKat full HD on your TV!

Does Ubuntu support Chromecast? Couldn't you just get a Chromecast and a BT keyboard and mouse and pretty much accomplish the same thing without using USB at all (except to charge, obviously)? I know it's possible in Android, it is built into the Chromecast app...

The chromecast is made to use with phones, tablets, and chrome browsers. Not BT keyboards and mice.

I understand, but that is not what I meant. I meant cast the screen of the Nexus 4, and use a BT mouse and keyboard to control the Nexus 4... Essentially using the Chromecast as your HDMI output from the device.

It wouldn't work in Ubuntu, casting screen to Chromecast is a proprietary feature that requires Android.
It is definitely possible to use a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse while casting to Chromecast, but the slight lag caused by screen mirroring, combined with the slight lag from the Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, makes it borderline unusable. It does, however, free up the USB port to plug in a USB mouse and keyboard with an OTG Y cable and a hub.
I can't see why you would want to use Nexus 4 as a desktop PC. The android OS and UI are totally unsuitable unless you want to impress your friends
If you want something small and portable, you should look at getting an Intel NUC or similar. Much more powerful and much much more suitable for desktop OS stuff.
Could always look into the likes of the Asus Transformers? I personally use the transformer prime with its dock and it works like a ultrabook has handled everything I have thrown at it too but for all the hardcore applications I have my desktop
Also for a heads up you could be interested in the Asus transformer book, its a windows tablet, but add the likes of Console OS and you can dual boot windows and android with full support for their respective apps/programs on each side
Ive got a MyDP Slimport Adapter and a Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse. The only downside is that Ubuntu Touch does not support Desktop Convergence Yet. I hope its around the corner. The nexus is powerful enough for me and hope that the desktop mode is enabled and works as planned. Its a great idea to dock your phone and use it as your desktop.
Thanks for thre recommendation.

I have a mini wireless keyboard/mouse combo I used to use with my HTPC. I plugged it into the gtablet a few days ago when I was running TapNCrap and the keyboard worked well but as I expected there was no mouse support.
However, now with the Cyanogen Mod Firmware, it includes full USB Mouse Support which is fricken awesome!
With mouse support and the eventual docking station with HDMI out, this thing can become a basic laptop replacement. Actually, with Hulu coming to android and services like PlayOn which are also coming to android shortly, and the processing power of this little tablet, it can actually become an HTPC replacement in it's own right!
I am going to test out bluetooth mouse/keyboard support shortly, because if that works then you can just run an app on your phone to turn it into a bluetooth keyboard/mouse and pair it with the tablet, which would make it even more convenient to use form afar if/when the HDMI dock becomes available stateside .
I was pretty impressed with this as well. I was able to a USB barcode scanner and even use the tab through my USB KVM. Really a great bonus when you are hacking and cracking.
I have a Samsung Infuse, screen broke, don't want to thorw a way, is there a way that I can turn into something like this. I would like to use the benifits of its wifi as well. Is it possible or a ROM available that would allow me to connect via my USB port on my TV?
You can give it to me, I'll really appreciate it.
It really depends on the software and what's available. If it has HDMI/MHL video out and OTG USB support... then yea.

The Infuse 4g supports MHL so yeah you can turn it into a Android mini-pc.
Check out youtube for some Infuse/MHL videos.
Buy a MHL adapter that also has an input for external power cause most TVs don't have power over HDMI/MHL
Old phone as android stick
I have several old android phones (2 unrooted, HTC EVO 4Gs and a Samsung Replenish) lying around and want to use them as android mini sticks for my TVs. I'd be using them moslty for streaming video/audio (Netflix, Pandora, YouTube, etc) and checking email, social media, etc.
This brings up a few questions:
1. How do I power it since it only has a mini HDMI port? My TV's HDMI does not provide power. Is there splitter available that will let me plug into the wall and to my TV from the mini HDMI?
2. Do I need special software on the old phone?
3. Can I use another android device as a remote control (via wifi) or do I need to get a fly-mouse or something? I'd prefer using my current android phone or tablet.
I realize that the sticks out there are cheap and more powerful than my old phone, but...why not give this a try?

Something with a HDMI port is ideal so the Evo 4G would make a great TV stick device. You should be able to use a USB charger and have the HDMI plugged in all at the same time. Thats what I do with my old Droid 3 which has the same ports.
There are apps out there that can let you control one device from another, you may need to be rooted though IIRC.

HI all,
I've been realizing lately that my Nexus 5 does just about everything I need anymore. I hardly ever need a PC for anything except for the full size monitor, keyboard, and mouse.
Now, I think I can use USB OTG and connect a Mouse and keyboard. But, is there a way to connect an external monitor as well?
I see that there is a Docking station for Samsung Galaxy phones that seem to do what I'm asking, here:
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EDD-S20JWEGSTA
I've googled but cannot figure out if there is anything out there that would work for my Nexus 5. Does anyone have any suggestions?
externally powered USB hub. I used my friends once, had a hdmi output also and it worked flawlessly. (and by externally powered, i mean one that draws power from an outlet, not the phone itself)

One way to find out... could also just get a keyboard with built in mouse like this or find one of these.
For android 4.4.2 and up use Chromecast for video& audio with HDMI monitor with speakers and Bluetooth for keyboard and mouse. Need sw app Andromium OS and/or Kodi too.
hi,
Can 6P output video over USB-C?
Can generic USB C-type cable to HDMI be used?
Any other specific for 6P adapter can be used for HDMI wired output?
No, I don't need / want chromecast or miracast or etc wi-fi streaming.
thanks.

For the Pixel chromebook.
The 6P supports WiFi Direct, so I would suggest you go that route if at all possible. You may need to get a Miracast dongle for your flat panel display of projector.

I think because it's still USB 2.0 that it can't output via HDMI. On another note don't waste your time with a miracast dongle. I'm pretty sure Google dropped support for that to exclusively use Chromecast. IMHO I feel it's leaps and bounds better than miracast anyway and you can still mirror your phone

HDMI works just fine over USB2, it's MHL or SlimPort that extracts video/audio from phone microUSB port. I don't know details how it works, but that I use for my S3 with MHL adapter to feed HDMI input.
The specs say specifically WiFi Direct, which is what Miracast uses as the transport, so Miracast should work. It works well with my Nexus 7, and the Nexus 4, 5 and 10 work as well. The Motorola Nexus 6 did not support WiFi Direct. If Chromecast supports mirroring to the USB port of a flat panel or projector to display the output of the phone or tablet screen for PowerPoint, AutoCAD, etc, then great. At least in the past, that was not the case.

thats... not how chromecast works. receiving device needs something (chromecast, roku, fire stick) that supports the chromecast protocol (cast method). from there, you can mirror (cast) your device screen or chrome tab.
as far as using a miracast dongle goes, i believe it's the same principle as chromecast. you won't get display through the USB port of your device. the dongle has to connect through some video throughput (usually HDMI). most (if not all) display-only devices do not have the capability to accept display through a USB port.
I don't understand why it doesn't support hdmi output. The s6 doesn't either. I don't want use chromecast because i use my unlimited data plan to stream movies. That's only thing i'm jelly of the iphone right now.

what does having UDP and steaming movies have to do with CC? are you saying you want to steam movies from your phone to your device? there are apps that do this, including ES File Manager. if you're traveling, you'll need two devices to set up the CC to use your hotspot, but short of that, CC should work great for your needs.
everyone has different use case
for me I need that phone output video over HDMI input of my car radio (Appradio)
and I'd like to have it over cable
in my case streaming over wi-fi comes with annoying latency - that's delay between car touchscreen action and video display as reaction
for me it isn't about movie streaming, but GPS and other car related apps

This.
I thought I could live without root and ARUnchained so that Android Pay would work easily, and just get by with screen mirroring without touch interface on the head unit. Since Marshmallow, I haven't rooted and I've just been mirroring my N5 through SlimPort. I don't know that I can get by like this after being so used to full interface. And I imagine that the lag on Chromecast would be highly annoying. I'm quite disappointed there is no HDMI output on 6P, but I'm getting it anyway.

Oops, you are right. I said USB, but meant HDMI. For my Actiontec dongle, you use the USB port to power it, but the HDMI port for the video / audio.
I'll be honest... I see almost no lag Casting my N5 screen of a 1080p Youtube clip to Chromecast 2.
It actually surprised the hell out of me that the quality of the cast was much better than choosing the same video through the YouTube app for Chromecast

I use the 6P via miracast to my AppRadio and the lag is non existant. The Nexus 5 struggled a bit but the 6P doesn't. This is using a Microsoft Wireless adapter.
Assuming you have supported the ARU developer, then join the Alpha group and he has a version that automates the connection process for Miracast / Chromecast. I have also posted in the ARUR thread how to get the screen to dim down to nothing.

Mainly because TV technology has moved on and the technology to stream is in most of those now. Very few phones will support MHL or Slimport going forwards, if any at all within a year.
I would not have bought the Nexus 6P if I'd known that it did not support HDMI out. No doubt about it.
Starting a thread to see what kind of kooky and cool ideas peeps have come up with for their setup.
I just bought another Logitech MX570 trackball mouse. My 3rd. I like to go back and forth between traditional mice (MX Performance) and trackball so I don't get carpal tunnel and tendonitis. I'm up in the air about the dedicated keyboard. I will probably get the Logitech K800 as that has been my favorite so far. I would like to try the Craft but too expensive.
I know many of you are just going straight usb-c to HDMI adapter and using Bluetooth accessories. Those are welcome too. It would be really nice if Logitech came out with a sweet sweet keyboard with touchpad built in. There are a couple but the cheap one is just that, cheap and low quality. I bought my mom the K400 and it works fine for her but not for me. Logitech needs to step up their game on a keyboard with touchpad built in.
I am also using Logitech because of the unifying receiver so only USB port is taken for 2 accessories. Have not decided on a USB thumb drive yet.
What setups are you running for productivity with DEX? Please share so there is a thread peeps (that actually use the search function) can come and see what options there are to fit their workflow. Or haven't thought of.
I will update later today see if my USB controllers work for emulators and what the latency is, which I am hoping is just as good as mouse input. I was expecting critical latency that would make the experience bad.
Anybody try with a USB powered monitor yet?
I'm sorry, but..... pics or it didn't happen, right?
I invested in this dex stuff just as a hobby. I already have 4 pc’s plus a laptop and an iPad Pro 12.9 i carry with me daily.
I passed on it with the note 8 but thought to give it a go the note 9.
I also use the mxperformance mouse for my pcs but i picked up a jelly comb foldable portable wireless keyboard. It has a click-style mouse pad and the keypad is pleasant to use. I also picked up the dex pad , hdmi 2.0b latest spec hdmi cable.
I guess a good way to use this setup will be when I download films to the device. Rather than copy the file over to the pc, i can just connect the dex to the display and have better flexibility.
I found the jelly comb folding keyboard to be crap. Double characters everywhere. Moved to a generic wireless mouse on one of the USB ports and an MS folding BT keyboard. It's replaced my work laptop for 80% of tasks. Oh and powering the HDMI adapter by a Nintendo switch USB C power supply as it kicks out 2.6A which is enough to charge the phone at the same time.
I probably won't post a pic (if I even remember) until Friday or Saturday. I think I will try using it one day and a USB 3 thumb drive. I think DEX only supports USB 2 though. Another missed opportunity by Samsung to make this an even better pseudo desktop experience. Did Sammy use 3 or 3.1 for their USB C? Having two or even one USB 3 A port would've been sweet for local storage. Between a Logitech unifying receiver and a SanDisk UltraFit USB 3 drive and you're talking one smaller desktop.
Samsung could make some corny commercials pitting it against Intel NUC boxes like their Apple commercials. ???

I had picked up a DeX dock from Amazon for 60 bucks. I used a logitech anywhere BT mouse and the blue BT keyboard. Mouse and keyboard work great.

Still fun to play around with tho.

dex output is crystal clear for me. I have used this on an lg 4K 27 inch monitor and my old school plasma Panasonic 3D display from 2011
I have a late spec hdmi 2.0b cable and again the resolution is not blurry at all. Plenty of videos on the web to also show the clarity .
Yes dex works with a regular hdmi spec cable usb c to hdmi. I have also used dex with just a cable (waiting on the pad tho show up)
What happens when incoming call?
Hi. Not sure where to post this. Thinking of jumping from iPhone to Note9
Can somebody tell me if I will be able to use the Note9 as a normal handset with an incoming call? (While in Dex). Everything I see indicates the acutal Note9 runs independent when docked but I can't find any example of making/receiving a call on one.
I want to use a USB extension cable and just be able to use the phone like normal when connected to Dex. Not sure what happens to the audio if I'm also using external speakers via Dex.
Thanks!

I know I'm still connected to Dex via a USB-C extension cable but I'd like to be able to just pick up the phone and use it "privately" like normal. Is that possible?
I believe something changed with the Note9 making it work differently with Dex.
