Is it possible to enable DisplayPort in XZ1

[ΒΕΓΑ]

Hi, i have a Type-C to Hdmi adapter which is have DisplayPort Alt Mode support. When i plug in to my device, nothing happens. I searched for Hdmi, Dp, usb in root folders but couldnt find anything to activate it.

XZ1 doesn't support HDMI or DP output by a dongle. This was officially confirmed in the Sony-host forums.

Xz1 supports Dp by the hardware but blocked by software. Please read carefully. I want to activate. Not get it by an update or official stuff.

In my opinion, they were using chromecast to mirror the display on that monitor. See the following screenshot:

PS sorry, I cannot post direct links yet, I am new.

Hmh it's questionable issue...

I'm not sure but does that signature appears only when you use chromecast? Or it pop up when you start mirroring screen in every way including adapter?


BTW Someone on reddit found same video:

I'm interested to connect multi function USB-C adapter (rj45, card reader, USB 3, VGA dsub, hdmi, minijack 3,5 mm) to my
XZ1C. I don't want to bring my heavy laptop when I have PowerPoint presentation

I have possiblity to test on either xz1 (someone form my family will borrow me that phone for test)

Both devices has unlocked bootloader and LOS16 installed with magisk flashed. That's why I'm interested to enable this function, with root I have possiblity to edit some system files.
(or it'll be just working, why lineageos developers may block this function?)

Here is my thread:

It'd be great if you join with your knowledge

Now I wait for extra money to buy advanced adapter, or someone to do instead of me.

This icon should appear only when using chromecast, if I remember well. I still have my Nexus 7 and a slimport adapter laying around, I will check if it is true.

To my knowledge, basically the XZ1 should have the functionality disabled in the kernel like Google did on its Pixel 4.

I am very interested in it too, but I had too little time to spend on this research. Hopefully, I should have some days off to investigate on this matter (thanks a lot, COVID-19) :angel:

HDMI out via DisplayLink Presenter app and a DisplayLink dongle

Hello, I saw your post here about getting HDMI working on the XZ1 Compact and was just wondering if you could help?
You mentioned you got it working using "DisplayLink Presenter" and a DisplayLink dongle. I'm not sure what a DisplayLink dongle is.

You need an dongle or a docking station which includes a DisplayLink chip. I use this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Wavlink-Adapter-External-Supports-Resolution/dp/B076SX73LY/

„DISPLAYLINK CERTIFIED (dl-3500 chipset), you could Download the driver from this link: www.displaylink.com. If you have connected to USB3.0 devices, the resolution is adjustable and the maximum resolution can be up to 2048x1152 , if you have connected to USB2.0 devices Resolution 800x600 @ 60Hz.“
It‘s working on 1080p @ 30Hz for me!
