Does the P10 work with MHL adapters? What about USB-C to HDMI? - Huawei P10 Questions & Answers

Hi, considering getting the P10 but I can't find out if it has MHL support or not. I think the P8 did, but I've found conflicting reports about whether the P9 did or not... and no info about the P10. Anyone know if MHL adapters work, or maybe if a USB-C to HDMI connector would do? Or is it just wireless mirroring (e.g. Chromecast, Miracast) that works? Thanks!

mhl/hdmi is not supported
miracast works, but i find it quite useless

USB-C displayport?

Hi,
does anyone know if the P9 has the displayport functionality available in the USB-C port? I need a HDMI output to connect to my Pioneer Appradio so need to make sure this is available on the P9.
I think you only need a MHL adapter, like this

[Q] screen cast P9 Plus

Hi,
I search a way to cast my screen on TV.
I found that a USB C to HDMI cable won't work on P9 Plus, is it true ?
Also it appears that the P9 Plus isn't miracast certified ?
Does someone know what is the protocol behind MirrorShare ? Do I need to buy an HDMI adapter ?
I know I can use a Chromecast but I would prefer offline (like a cable or wifi direct) solution for travel
I'm having the same issues with P9 Plus. I think there are new USB-C Hubs with HDMI output. Have not used them yet as they seemed to be meant for MacBooks.

HDMI Output over USB Type C

Hey folks,
has anyone tested a USB Type C to HDMI-cable to project the Screen on a TV or monitor? On my Samsung S8 and LG G5 it works flawlessly, but on the P10 it only show the charging option for the cable
Is the cable the problem or does Huawei not support this? i couldn´t find any official info from Huawei about it.

Hello,
I don't think you can project from USB to HDMI BBY default. Unless there is some kind on emulation driver on your phone (which would require root). My advise, to achieve what you looking for, get a Google Chromecast and your good to go.

After trying multiple hdmi to type c adapters by now i came to the same conclusion. Unfornuately lg und samsung have that functionalty.
Chromecast is only good for certain things, if you watch videos it´s too delayed or might not even function depending on the size and format of the videofile.
As i travel much, it would have been nice to plugin the cable into the tv of the hotel to watch some movies on my phone and not all tv´s in hotels have chromecast functionality.
I hope huawei will implent this functions in next firmwareupdates or so, cause the mate 10 has that function exclusively (for now).
The difference is that G5 and S8 has USB 3.0/3.1 standard with USB type-C connector while P10 has old USB 2.0 with USB type-C connector.
You can check the specifications at gsmarena.com
BTW, Galaxy S5 has USB 3.0 with microUSB connector
Such a pity :/

Huawei P10 HDMI cable cast

Haven't posted for years, so don't shoot me down.
#huawei #p10 Is there a ROM that would support screen casting via HDMI to USB-C cable? Have a P10 which has MirrorShare over network (useless to me). Need a hardwire solution. Understand that the standard P10 didn't support HDMI casting. So wondered if a ROM could fix this.
Thanks

USB OTG? Any dongles that work?

As the M5 Lite uses a USB C port (with USB 2 speeds according to reviews) I'm curious as to whether there is a USB C OTG dongle/hub/dock that works with this device? Has anyone tested this?
If not - I have ordered 3 dongles and a hub to test and will report back. Thought it might be useful for the wider community to be informed, whilst also inquiring myself.

To answer my own question - USB hub works fine, usb dongles also work - it seems the USB C connector is standard from this side of things. I've not tested HDMI out as don't have a HDMI adaptor.

Hi. Which adapter works for you? I bought one on Amazon usb/sd/hdmi to USB-C and it didn't worked for my Huawei M5 lite 10 but it worked on a Samsung A 2018. Also does the hdmi adapter work, have you tried it? Thanks
Hello.
I just bought the M5 Lite, seems to work great. For the USB interface, I have a usb hub which works fine with the tablet: it has 3 USB ports, and I am able to simultaneously access a USB drive, as well as use a logitech wireless keyboard dongle allowing use of BOTH wireless keyboard and mouse. However the newest hub which I bought specifically to use with this tablet, a "FitFort" type-C hub pro, does NOT work with this tablet(although it does work with my Xiaomi telephone.) Therefore it seems that this tablet and hub are incompatible... The Fitfort hub power light does not even light up when plugged into the M5 Lite...This is dissapointing since the Fitfort Hub has an HDMI port which was the main feature I wanted to try out. I have researched HDMI output for the M5 Lite but have not yet found anyone claiming the HDMI output will work from the M5 Lite. By the way, although this Fitfort hub works fine with my Xiaomi phone(for UDB drives and dongles), the HDMI port does not work for this Xiaomi phone.
As for M5 Lite HDMI output, anyone having success with this please post info. Thanks
