This is already known. Same issue when the Galaxy S3 came out. Samsung changed the pin layout and did the same on the Galaxy Note 2. So you will need to buy a new MHL adapter or you can buy an adapter for your current MHL adapter.

Yes the wires are now arranged conversely. You need a new MHL adaptor or fix yours with soldering-iron.
any clue if now the mhl is compatible with camera apps?

Anyone have an answer to whether this is supported? Please say yes
There is an adapter cable for sale on the play store.
Link? I just checked and saw no HDMI adapter on there

Well hopefully that is a good sign that it will work. It's possible they have that on there for the pixel c

From the reddit AMA:
[–]strabbit 7 points an hour ago
Will either the Nexus 5x or 6p support HDMI via the USB-C connector?

DB> Nope. But Cast mirroring to ChromeCast or Android TV has got really good. And Chromecasts are only $35. And we have new ones announced yesterday.
That's bull**** if you ask me that they didn't enable it just because they are trying to push more of their products.
Sure I have a chromecast and whatnot and I can do all of that just fine at home.. But if I go somewhere that doesn't have WiFi I want to be able to connect my phone to the TV still.
Google of your going to not enable HDMI adapter connections, then make your chromecast capable of direct connection that doesn't rely on wifi
The usbC port on the nexus uses USB 2.0 standard... not a chance
Most USB-C promised feature (which actually are usb3.1 features) will not work ; it's a shame
No one has been able to confirm the spec on the USB port. Most report it to be 3.0 with some 3.1 sprinkled in.

I read somewhere that USB is indeed 2.0 with USB type C port, like the OnePlus Two. At least it has quick charging
Does MHL or whatever the other standard is work? I thought that allowed the phone to "cast" to the screen?
Google themselves confirmed during the AMA that it is 2.0
And disabled casting to Roku 3 in 7.0. gotta have a Chromecaat.

Thank you. One down two to go
Benson said it uses USB 3.1 Gen 1 Host and Client. 5gbps.
Benson Leung said the phone uses USB 3.1 Gen 1 Host and Client. 5gbps. So I think it will work well with your USB C HDMI adapter. I'll test my HDMI adapter when I get my pixel xl.
As above, USB 3.1 -> HDMI adapter. Here is one sold by google, though any will work: https://store.google.com/product/usb_type_c_to_hdmi_adapter

I called Project Fi Support and the customer service rep did not know, but he was curious as well. When you receive your pixel xl please update us. Thanks!
USB Type-C guru Benson Leung has informed us that the Pixel phones don't work with the adapter because they lack VESA DisplayPort Alternate Mode that is on the Pixel C and Chromebook Pixel, which means that they aren't compatible with any adapters of this sort.

I heard you can't use USB to HDMI, not tried it as I don't have a cable, but would make sense since they likely want to sell a few more Chromecast.
That sucks. I wonder if V20 does. I need hdmi compatibility.
I'm curious if this will work with a displayport based or mhl based usb c- hdmi adapter
I read that the V20 is hdmi compatible so I am leaning toward the v20 at this point

The Pixel's do not support Miracast since they would have to pay royalties to include it. They do support Chromecast which you can get a dongle for $35. Which will allow screen mirroring on to a tv.

We can't use HDMI output in google pixel phone.
I tried it but it wasn't working well. U.U
Has anyone found a solution to this problem. I want to be able to mirror content from my Google pixel xl to my Sienna rear entertainment system and I was hoping that usb-c to hdmi would work. I bought the cable and then learned that it's not supported. I'm not too happy about this.....any solutions?

You won't like it but... LG V20
I've been investigating all routes to achieve this with my pixel, wish I'd gone for a S7 or LG V20 now as the lack of alternatives to Chromecast are none. The reason being I'm using this in my car with Appradio Unchained and needing an internet signal is a right pain. Not to mention the CC not being picked up randomly by it in cast devices. My nexus 5 was perfect for this as it supported slimport.
I have found something of an alternative however it doesn't quite work unfortunately. There are two modes to mirror, USB debugging and USB Tethering. With debugging I get audio but no video. With Tethering I get video but no audio. Which is making think about buying one of these audio embedders. It would mean having to connect the headphone jack as well but hey it would in theory work and at least the audio would quality would be excellent...
I assume like the original pixel, it does not have VESA DisplayPort Alternate Mode, so there are no wired options for getting video out of a pixel 2?
oddly enuff I found an adapter here, though I do not think it will work with the pixel 2's

None of the Pixels can do video output via its USB C port.
Hi All,
I have a Google Pixel 2, and when I am listening music, it CAN NOT Charge!
Can you guys recommend a slitter that you have used that you like to me？
First, welcome to the forums. Second, there's already a long thread with recommendations:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-xl/accessories/listening-to-headphones-charging-t3687464
Third, have you considered cheap Bluetooth headphones? Or even just take a break from listening and top off your phone by charging for 30-60 minutes? You'll get to 60-80% battery I'm that amount of time. Just saying.

Thank your for your recomment
I already have bluetooth headphone, but i do not really like it.
So my friend suggested me buy a slitter that dual usb c, and he said usb c headphone sound great than 3.5mm jack earphone. I do not know that....so i really need some help.
Oh dual USB C is what you're asking for. The thread I linked for was to split to USB C and 3.5mm. Well USB C headphones are rare and really don't provide any improvements over 3.5mm headphones.

Oh, really? thank you for your suggestion.
And I look around on Amazon, I found someone is selling this adapter support dual usb c .
Em..Why I can not post the link on that?
Because you're too new to the forums. It's too prevent spam accounts. I think you can post links when you hit 10 posts.
Question for you is what USB C headphones are you even considering? All the best ones are either 3.5mm or Bluetooth.

Look at my first post you need both things it's a USB hub with USB c in for charging and 3 USB 3.0a you then turn one of the 3.0a in to a USB c and plug the USB c audio dongle in that came with the phone.
Also lol you don't want a slitter for your pixel 2 lol maybe for your inability to peace together information
