This install of MaruOS works fine as a phone. what does not work is the HDMI dongle. I am on my second one and haven't been able to get the desktop up. the first dongle was an HDMI to usb C ONN. brand that had no power port. After it didn't work, i took it apart and connected the VCC and the 5volt to a wall wart then tested, the phone charges from it but no HDMI signal on my TV. I ordered a second adapter, and this one has a power port, but it is the flanged mini USB, so i have to use a converter to the oval USB C, charges but no HDMI signal.

is there a known dongle to work with the bullhead Nexux5X ??

thanks.

As mentioned in our User Guide for the Nexus 5X Bullhead, the Nexus 5X does not support HDMI over USB. So you need to use a wireless dongle instead, like Chromecast.

Hope this helps!
