IF the phone can output enough power with it’s OTG port AND has the correct drivers for that cheap-ass looking USB framebuffer graphics thing AND that’s an active HDMI to VGA adapter rather than some shitty vendor-specific implementation based on some unholy bastardisation AND the phone supports external displays… then I still don’t think it’d work, tbh (but it won’t (it might though (it won’t))).
Society if VGA over MicroUSB was standardized
What did dude think was coming out of the VGA port? Tiny photographs? It’s all electricity through wires, of course it’ll send some electricity into a phone
I don’t know shit about cables but it’s plugged into a monitor. My intuition is that a monitor shouldn’t be pushing power out through a video input port.
Signals aren’t magic, they consist of electrical power. You can get at least a little bit of power from anything that isn’t an optical port.
