Morning
I have a old laptop screen, and 2 x samsung s10`s with broken screens.
After stumbling upon the DIYperks YouTube channel yesterday i saw that you can repurpose the old screen buy getting a control board.
But before i commit to this exercise, i was hoping someone has done something similar and if it worked .
The screen i have is a b1565xw01
And apparently it can work with the below controller:
Just found this amazing item on AliExpress. Check it out! ZAR380.53 19%OFF | Kit B156XW01 V0/V1/V2 VGA Signal Controller board DVI HDMI-compatible Screen 1 lamps LVDS 1366X768 30pin Display Panel 15.6"
Will the above setup (old Samsung s10 and above lcd work with Samsung dex)
I Want to use the above setup in my garage when doing diy tasks to watch YouTube tutorials and google a bit and listen to background music.
I tried to use the phone with usb c to usb converter, then usb to hdmi but the tv could did not register the phones output or nothing was displayed.
Below is a link to the video that got me thinking about the setup. He uses a VSdisplay usb C type controller which will work ideally but the cost i much higher than the pcb postwd above (unless if someone knows where i can get a cheaper one)
Ideally i want something that charges the phone and powers the pc board, i dont want the phone to drain without charging while using. Maybe even add a powerbank like in the video.
Another thing is i would like to add a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse without a dongle as there is no place to plug in the dongle.
Any other suggestions for a garage pc would be appreciated.
