I think the main thing is that it be USB OTG. There is a huge thread somewhere discussing this topic. Based on that thread, I ordered one of these and am hopeful that it will work properly.

The only one guaranteed to work is called the Motorola Camera Kit, and consists of a small adapter (3-4") referenced in the post above. There are others advertised as OTG cables/adapters) but they're pretty hit or miss.

Use External screen cable with mouse/keayboard

Does anyone know if its possible to use my phone with an external monitor and a usb keyboard mouse all together?

Z1c does have usb otg and hdmi (via usb). It might work through a hub. Or you might hook up your tv through hdmi and use a bluetooth mouse.
Amazon carries all of the cables/adapters, cheap. I haven't tried what you're proposing, but everything I have tried has worked so far.

I have to add, there is a bit of lag in the hdmi connection so it wouldn't be suitable for some games.

im using MHL and its laggy. unplayable for games.
not possible to use mhl via usb hub as the usb is 5 pin. samsung have the other usb with 9 pins that allows usb otg and mhl at sametime. not possible with our xperias.

@cpgr
I have mhl cable and just checked is it working with hub. I've connected mhl through micro usb to usb A:

It is not working. And I can confirm it's laggy, and playing videos, especially long movies with mxplayer sometimes sound is getting lost of sync with video.
I've also recently bought cheap tablet with win8.1 and putting it to work with TV is simple like open a can of coke
1GB of ram is pain in the ass but for this money it was worth buying

USB C Dock

Is the realme 5 pro compatable with a USB c to HDMI cable/dock?

Good question, I think not because nothing is mentioned on the technical sheet.

Realme 5 pro Type C to HDMI
Can I connect my Realme 5 pro Device with Elgato Hd60s? I wanna stream Games and for that I spent money on capture card. I got the capture card but it doesn't detect my Realme 5 pro Phone. I'm Using Type C to HDMI Adapter. It doesn't display anything on phone and also doesn't show any signal on capture card. Is it because it doesn't Support MHL? Is MHL Mandatory?
Please Help I spent alot of money.

Working OTG cable

Has anyone got any suggestions for a working OTG cable for our F2 .
I have used an old micro usb one with a type c adaptor with mixed results .

My Samsung and Google OTG adapters both work fine.

I have tried, but this phone seems not support OTG

What are y'all trying to use? I've used my otg adapter for Ethernet adapter and a wireless keyboard with no issues.

I ordered this one from Amazon and it is working fine , I had issues with my F1 but the f2 is better .

I've bought two types for check:

and two like this:
And I confirm that both of them works well. No problem with usb storage or watching TV via RTL2832U dongle on my POCO F2 Pro with this cables. I'm on Xiaomi.EU rom. The phone for sure supports OTG. The cables are on AliExpress, I'm not posting direct links to not advertise them, but everyone interrested will find them.

try usb 2.0 things?
seems that f2 pro does not support usb 3.0 adaptors

Yes of course I was testing it with USB 2.0 devices - it's no problem to use the USB 3.0 cable with USB 2.0 phones because of the backward compatability and the quality of the cable itself is better on USB 3.0 because of the higher amperage and bitrate.

Shouldn't this be moved as well then?

Hey autoid_os
I have the TC77 with identical Port. I want to make a USB cable for ADB/Fastboot Connection.
To you know what the Data pin's are in your Picture?
For this new Port I don't find any technical information.
Thanks in advance
Blizzrar

But I think better is to buy cable for few usd

Yes, this is what I did for the USB cable.
I have another question, do you know how the serial cable works for the TC7x series?
I mean the part number CBL-TC7X-SERL1-01
It seems to connect to the same connector but the serial connector seems to be very big so I guess it is using some circuit like USB to serial for computer? I cannot find it anywhere to buy it that's why I am asking.

Can some one make me a charge cable and send to me.
I do not want to pay $100.0 of $30.0 for the cable the tc70.
