RE: OnePlus & OTG support?

RE: OnePlus & OTG support?
Hi I am thinking about expanding my OnePlus... but I'm not sure if it it supports OTG USB 3.0. I am thinking of buying this if it works...

Or would a hub be better? Assuming it works.
I have read on other forums that 2.0 works, but I'm not sure if it supports 3.0. Thank you for sharing your thoughts in advance.

thats not a 3.0 otg adapter. its a usb 3.0 hub and usb 2.0 otg adapter hub as the title states. its very obvious as the microusb 3.0 port is about twice as wide as the 2.0 port as you can see if you look at a samsung galaxy s5 which is one of the only phones with a usb 3.0 port.
to answer your question, no, the oneplus doesnt have a usb 3.0 port so it will not work with a usb 3.0 otg adapter. it should work with that adapter as its only a 2.0 adapter. im not sure its worth $20 though...

USB-C to HDMI?

So I noticed that the google store sells a USB-C to HDMI adapter. Is this only for the Pixel's? Will this work with the USB-C on the 6P?
How about the USB-C adapters that Apple sells? will those work with the 6P?

It will not work on the 6P. USB Type-C ports which use USB 2.0 don't incorporate the needed pins/wires to output DisplayPort/HDMI. The Pixel uses USB 3.1 Type-C ports and using a managed active USB 3.1 Type-C cable should support it.
Pins used for alternate mode:

At last! a Good Car charger

Why is it so difficult to find a good car charger! A lot of them out there don't have enough AMPs to do the job and charge 2 devices at once.
I found one though that works really good, the CHOETECH Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 & USB C Ports in Dual USB Car Charger. I really recommend it as it has a Quick charge port and a mix of USB and USB C Type ports. Very practical to charge 2 devices with different ports at the same time and fast.
So if you need a good car charger that charges fast and fits perfectly in the car slot, then buy this one!

That was one of the ones I considered and ended up getting this one: USB C Quick Charge 3.0 AUKEY Car Charger with Dual AiPower Ports for LG G5, Galaxy S7/S6/Edge, Nexus 6P/5X & Other USB-C Devices | Qualcomm Certified https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018TGGH4E/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_C6hzxbE7CS52Y
With QC3.0 and 2 other adaptive ports, it has plenty of power to go around.

I like Blitzwolf. I order them from Banggood. They are high quality chargers.
For a powerbank I prefer Anker.

Got this recently, works great for QC 3.0.

choetech car charger
I got this one, I dont have any usb-c to usb-c cables yet, and this one has two USB A sockets and supports qualcomm qc3.0 charges up very quick
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Charge-Charger-CHOETECH-Samsung-Galaxy/dp/B017LLHK8K/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1468237707&sr=8-12&keywords=choetech+usb-c

Choetech 2 Pack Micro USB to USB C Adapters

The first thing I usually notice about aftermarket USB C is how they connect to the charging port. These were very clicky and you know when they are seated. When connected to micro-usb they have a very nice click as well.
Charging speeds were the exact same as rated on the charger. These do not hinder charging speeds at all. My phone charged just as quickly as I expected with my desktop charger - Not fast charging, of course, as that would require full USB-C.
I moved some files over with these as well and got the expected USB speeds. The connector did not slow the transfers down. I compared the speeds to another Micro USB device I had and both gave the same speeds to and from the device with the same cable.
The addition of the keyring on these connectors is amazing! I’m hoping that on the next Choetech portable batter they will add a place for me to attach this keyring. Having it on my keys is great. The connector stayed put when I picked up my phone with plenty of weight on the keys (truck key, key fob, bottle opener, a couple of house keys, a couple loyalty cards, a Motorola keylink, and plenty of keyrings)! I can’t believe no one has thought of doing this yet, great job Choetech!
In closing, these are the Micro USB to USB-C adapters to purchase for sure. The click when inserting the micro cable as well as the USB C into the phone along with the keyring make these a no-brainer.
I received this product in exchange for an honest and unbiased review. Choetech is looking for people to review the item listed here. I am not affiliated with Choetech other than reviewing for them. They are great people and make a great product.

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.
Sent from my POCO F2 Pro using XDA Labs

I ordered this one from Amazon and it is working fine , I had issues with my F1 but the f2 is better .
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07Y4WXB7H/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_YnilFbKC7Z8V7

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.

@Oswald Boelcke
Shouldn't this be moved as well then?
