Desktop mode with LG V500N Korean Edition - LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers

Hello all, I have a usb-c to HDMI cable that worked fine with my Samsung S8. I plug it into my V50 and monitor and no popup notification for screen sharing. Can anybody recommend a cable that will work properly with the V50 and a monitor / TV with HDMI? I'm surprised it wouldn't work with my old cable but there's clearly some type of compatibility issue. Thanks!

[Q] MHL Adapter not working on Samung Galaxy Note N7000

Hello All,
Search quite a few threads on xda as well as internet but unfortunately nobody have been facing issue similar to mine.
Okay, let me put it in brief. I bought an original samsung mhl adapter for galaxy s2 from ebay which presumable works well with samsung galaxy note too (haven't seen any MHL Adapter specifically for galaxy note) as heard on forums and web. It did not work. So, i got back to the vendor and he replaced it to me with another MHL Adapter. That too did not work. I got a refund as the vendor was good.
I still somehow wanted the MHL to work so went to a different vendor, known for good products (i.e. flipkart) and purchased another MHL adapter after confirming with the executives that yes it would work with galaxy note. It too isnt working.
In both the cases, the phone gets charged but there are no such notifications (notifications such as USB Host Cable Connected, or Keyboard Connected or MHL Connected etc). I have a working HDMI 1.4 cable (tested and verified), and yes, i am aware that external power is required to the MHL Adapter. .
Now, every other functionality on my phone is working well, like USB Host Mode, bluetooth/usb keyboards and bluetooth/usb mouse, data sync via usb etc etc, its only the MHL adapter which is giving me an issue constantly. Can the micro usb port on my Note be faulty ? I dont think as every other options are working fine.
I have tried all the three MHL Adapters (2 from the 1st vendor and 1 from the second) after i upgraded my phone to ICS. Are any other users facing the same issue ?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Apparently, there are problems with MHL support on ICS.

MHL adapter regarding....
hi guys,
i am also facing the same problem with MHL adapter. i tried to connect my galaxy note n7000 to sony bravia 3d tv via MHL but failed to do so. whenever i connect MHL to HDMI Cable to tv and to phone nothing happened and not even my phone or tv show any sign of connection or any notification regarding that. my phone not even show the battery charging sign. i also used 3d HDMI cable for the connection but nothing came out.... and when the vender (from whom i purchased the MHL) gave me the demo the same MHL was working fine with his HDMI cable and tv but the cable and tv he used were not 3D whereas i have a 3D tv. i dont understand why i am not able to connect the MHL adapter using 3D HDMI cable to my Sony Bravia 40HX750 3D tv with my Galaxy Note n7000. still struggling with that.... any reply in this regard will be appreciated.... thanx.

[Q] Connecting LG Optimus G Pro E988 to TV

Hi,
I just bought a LG Optimus G Pro E988 Phone in India. I want to connect it to my HD TV, but was unable to do so with a micro USB to HDMI Cable. I tried looking up at the settings to mirror or extend my display on my phone to TV, but did not find anything related to it. I also tried connecting my data cable to the USB port on my TV, that was not recognized either. Can anyone suggest me a way to connect them (my TV is not the latest SMART TV with wifi connectivity)?
Thanks in advance.
If you want to connect your LG Optimus G Pro to yout TV, you have to use only SlimPort adapter and male-male HDMI cable. About SlimPort adapter you can find on web. How to connect your phone to TV via SlimPort adapter you can find on web (YouTube etc.). You can not connect your phone to TV directly via HDMI cable or via MHL adapter.

Possible to activate desktop experience without the samsung dex dock?

Hey all...so....long time android user.....my very first phone was the Motorola Atrix 4G - one of the first to offer fingerprint logins to the phone AND also had a mini-hdmi out port which hooked into a special "dock" motorola manufactured to create a desktop experience....although, I think at the time it wasn't just a dock, it was like a whole mini-laptop thing with a keyboard and stuff....
ANYWAY, the point I'm making is, I think someone found a way to activate the desktop mode and all you had to do was use the hdmi-out port (the phone came with a compatible hdmi cable) and connect it to a monitor or tv and you could use a BT connected mouse and keyboard and voila! You now have the "desktop" experience without having to buy their phone-into-a-laptop-adapter.
So....is it possible to activate this experience over a usb-to-hdmi adapter? The phones already came supplied with an OTG adapter....
Anyway....would love to know if anyone knows of anything like this or has the knowledge and skill to make this happen?

I believe you can get a usb c to HDMI without the need for the otg connector...don't quote me though because I lost the thread I read it in...

Thank you @kevin_23 ! Can't wait to see what Android 10 desktop mode will look like on LG phones !
Hi Kevin_23, thanks for sharing your findings on the LG V50. I have a South Korea model of the LG V50 phone that I've tried to connect to a HDMI monitor but to no avail. The best results I have achieved are with this RAVPower USB C to HDMI cable. I have experienced intermittent flickering on the signal to the monitor. This cable worked fine with my older Samsung Galaxy S8. What in your opinion is causing this problem?
Best regards
Neil
I can confirm it is working with Huawei CP76 easy projector cable. Usbc 3.1 with 5Gbps hdmi cable. But power delivery didn't worked on my LG TV, but was working on another TV when I bought the cable. Weird... Does also the TV need to support power delivery?

Does hdmi over usbc works with your oneplus 7? Which dongle are you using?
I can confirm that it's working ([email protected]).
I have not explored it yet, since I received the adapter just recently and I need a keyboard.
But it seems very basic.
Edit: I bought a choetech thingy adapter with power delivery
