HDMI port.
Adapter must use display port protocol (I think). This USB-C to HDMI, USB3.1, and USB-C (charging port in only) works. Found on eBay.

Micro USB accessories.-
For OTG accessories, and some attachments such as cameras, the phone is the USB host.
'Conforming' USB-C to micro adapters (listing the '56k resistor' ) will not work. Tells the phone to take a charge, it is not host.
Look for adapters that are non conforming, better yet are 'OTG' compatible.
One is:

USB 3.1 Type-C to MicroUSB 2.0 Female OTG Adapter, Gray, pack of 2
My micro USB thermal camera, 3d camera, and USB host cables work. There are other brands as well.

I'm currently (partially successfully) using the following in an attempt to use an External 1TB Drive as a portable backup solution for travels:
Type C Adapter, RAVPower USB C To A Female OTG Cable, USB-C On The Go Convertor for New MacBook and Other Devices with Type C USB
I can get images onto the phone's internal 128GB card (Lexar Professional 1800x microSDXC 128GB UHS-II W/USB 3.0 Reader Flash Memory Card - LSDMI128CRBNA1800R) via OTG and Card Reader ...I cannot get them off of the internal on to the External 1TB via the OTG cable.

Problem with old HTC M8 Charger
At home I use the charger that came with the phone.
At the office, I was planning to use the HTC charger that came with my old M8, maybe not quite as fast.
But strangely enough, when I do that, the charge light turns on and off every couple of seconds, it wakes the phone, and it doesn't charge.
A Belkin 2.1A charger I had works fine though. Go figure.
I don't think the HTC 10 is compliant with USB-C Power Delivery (Such as the Nexus 6p) do deliver the rapid charging speeds of up to 3A via a USB-C charger and a USB-C to USB-C cable. I remember reading up about it of an article referencing Benson Leung (not the 1st one, but most recent one). He said the LG G5 is compliant with the Power Delivery achieving the 3A max input. But the HTC 10 only achieves 2A.
I can about confirm this because I have 2 USB-C wall chargers, one by Cheotech that gives me around 1600mah-1700mAh, and one by iClever, which gives me the same speeds. My RavPower Turbo Series Powerbank with the USB-C port and the max of 3A output gives me the same 1600-1700mAh speeds of input into the HTC 10 as well.
I've tested a Samsung adaptive fast charger from the s7 and s6 with the OEM cable and a ravpower A to C cable and it shows Rapid Charging when plugged in.

This adapter didnt worked with my HTC 10, it showed that video was conected but there was no transmition over to the TV or monitor, or am i doing something wrong? i mean i tried everything, and it didnt worked >.<, or maybe i got a defective unit? also, are you connecting into a 1080p, 2k or 4k TV/Monitor? maybe is that...
I have a Micro USB OTG cable and tried to use it with my Type C to Micro USB adapter for connecting a USB flash drive to my Nexus 5x. It fails no matter what I do.
Anyone have a clue to what the problem could be? Both the adapter and my OTG cable works fine separately.

I accidentally bought one that is just an adapter for charging, and had to get a different one that works for OTG. The one I have that works is on Amazon, here.
Not all USB C to micro USB adapter will work as OTG adapter. I have two adapters which can charge/data but not OTG.
I bought something like this. Looks like usb 3.0 (more pins) and its working fine.

My adapter didn't work either. I bought a special cable, which works.
Buy a USB Type-C to USB-A female adapter, those microUSB to USB Type-C doesn't work with OTG.
In case anyone was unaware....Came across a video on YouTube and found out that one of the adapters that came with the phone, USB-C to USB Female-which was part of the SmartSwitch, turn out that it is an OTG adapter.
You can use it to connect thumb drive, usb harddrive, usb hub, keyboard and mouse...It even lets you charge another device from your phone.
The microUSB adapter is just that an adapter not OTG ....I did find a 2 pack OTG adapter for USB-C to microUSB on amazon for $7 and have verified they work too. USB 3.1 Type-C to MicroUSB 2.0 Female OTG Adapter, Gray, pack of 2, for Google Pixel/Pixel XL, Nexus 5X/6P, LG G5, Moto Z, HTC m10 & others
I think this is detailed as an OTG adapter within the owners manual anyway

That's not true. Some cheaper ones will not allow fast charging.
