Dex mode on tablet screen

Hey, from what I gather DEX mode gives you a desktop style experience with the note 9 on an external screen. But does anyone know if it's possible to use it on the screen of a tablet running Windows 10? Not run in windows, but just essentially make use of its screen? Although I'm sure I saw a video of a guy plugging the phone into a laptop and using its screen. The tablet is a lovely 12 incher with a great screen and a built in stand, I just think it would be cool to use it's screen while playing games through the phone with a Bluetooth controller. The tablet has a full size usb port and a mini HDMI which I don't know if it would be an input as well or just output.
Any ideas?

No you can use teamviewer as a remote though

nopez. there is no way a normal Tablet or even Laptop lends just the screen to an external source.
Unless a niche product i am unaware, No video input (HDMI or whatever) input to be found. Just Output.
So a software solution is needed to replicate the phone on the Tablet screen. And that will not make the phone desktop to switch to Dex mode.
Samsung Sidesync program is what you need to run in your Windows 10 Tablet. Hopefully a future iteration of Samsung soft will allow for kind of "dex mode" desktop, as it would allow a better use of screen realstate in the Win10 device landscape format screen

Desktop mode (wired)

Hi there...although the introduction of wireless desktop mode is a useful feature, I noticed that connecting an USB cable to a standard monitor (or to a TV that doesn't support mirroring) no longer activates the desktop mode, differently from the Mate 20 series that supports both ways (wired & wireless) - anyone with similar experience? Is there a way to activate desktop mode via USB? Thanks!

Did anyone ever find out if this works?

Desktop mode trackpad missing?

When connecting the lg v50 via usb-c to a monitor it enables desktop mode. Is there a way to control the
desktop using the phone as a trackpad (like Samsung Dexpad)?

Anyone???

Hi, not sure it is worth it to open a new thread, but can you please describe how you managed to enable desktop mode. I tried 3 different docks and it is just not working. I know it worked in the past. Could this functionality be lost when upgrading from Android 9 to 10?

Huawei Desktop mode on Samsung Dex

Hi, has anyone tried to make Huawei Desktop mode to work with Samsung DeX station? I needed a USB hub to hock up my keyboard and mouse along with my TV via HDMI.
And I happen to have the DeX station for my work phone, Samsung S8+.
BTW, does anyone know how to make Huawei Desktop mode to work with Windows laptop like the way Samsung DeX for pc works?

Huawei Desktop Mode works fine from the P40 Pro via from USB-C hub (with HDMI, ethernet, USB ports) to my monitor 2560x1440
Unfortunately there are no resolution settings with the Huawei Desktop .. but there are resolution settings with Dex
I do not have a Dex Station to test.
I am not sure about Huawei Desktop on a laptop.

Thanks for your feedback, I may get myself a USB-C Hub to try it out then. Any recommendation?
BTW, I did try out my P40 Pro on the DeX, and it worked albeit not 100% perfect. The sound output to TV was muffed to a tiny volume by default. By toggling it between Auto and Mobile phone to Display device mode managed to bring back the volume to normal.
Here's a few screen shots while testing it:

I would research on amazon and find a USB-C hub that supports Dex .. then you should be ok for it to work with Huawei Desktop Mode.
I bought x3 and luckily x1 was successful.

is their any way that we can extract the dex mode apk from huawei?? i am sure it will also work on my phone if it one out so can y guys see for any apps which u may think is responsible for dex mode experience on huawei phone, u can use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.olalab.appbackup this app to take backup of that app and share...

How to Cast Your Windows or Android Display to a Windows 10 PC
Windows 10’s Anniversary Update brings an interesting new feature: Any PC can now function as a wireless receiver for Miracast, allowing you to view the display from another Windows PC, an Android smartphone or tablet, or a Windows phone.
www.howtogeek.com

You can go to win10 settings>apps>optional features>add a feature> search for wireless display and install it.
Then go to windows search search for Connect open the app named Connect and on ur tablet go down from the notification panel and find the Smart View button then click on ur computer name it should connect.

I got it to work on my Tab S7 connecting to both my Dell desktop and Samsung laptop using both Smart Mirror and DeX. The control is kinda clunky though. Lots of lag. I'm not sure of the practicality.
I'm running Windows 11 on both.
