        Hello,

        I was thinking to connect an E-ink display, Boox Mira.

        https://shop.boox.com/products/mira

        But before I buy, I wonder if it is possible to connect to my Volla UT phone?

        It seems to be a pretty bad support from Boox, but at least some. But in general, does UT have problems with various external displays?

        (Also, going to but an USB/HDMI hub) https://www.proshop.se/Dockning/Natec-Fowler-docking-station-USB-C-HDMI/3133084

        That I assume work well with UT?

          @Rinkeby external display support is something that first and foremost must be supported by the hardware. Does you Volla device support display out via the USB-C port?

            Thanks for answering as always.

            I been looking around on Github and found people having problems with volla. I also found people having problem with the specific screen. So now, I am going to do some work for you. Bought the USB hub. going to use my standard screen and have a go. I let you know!

            Cheers!

              The sad answer were no. It has USB C 2.0. And does not work to HDMI conversion.

                @Rinkeby then I can confidently say, your envisioned setup would not work.

                  yeah. only hope now is that USB C can drive external displays with USB C input. is that possible? Anyone here got UT working with displays with USB input?
