charliemora2Hello!
- Model Name: ROG Phone 6 PRO
- Firmware Version: Stock Version
- Rooted or not: Not Rooted
- Frequency of Occurrence: With Aero Active Cooler 6 attached
- APP Name & APP Version (If your issue relates to the app):
========================================
Firmware update needed to support HDMI video with the Aero Active Cooler 6 connected.
I am able to get a HDMI video signal out of both side and bottom USB-C port, however, the Aero Active Cooler 6 limits the USB-C ports functionality when installed and neither port supports HDMI video out.
During the "ROG Phone 6 Launch Event" it was Specifically stated @ 55:48 that the side port supported HDMI out and there was No disclaimer or Fine Print on the screen, that this function is disabled with the Aero Active Cooler 6 installed. Since there are no side pins on the ROG Phone 6 like its predecessor models the through port on the cooler might not be able to support HDMI video, but it should still be available on the bottom USB-C port.
The additional triggers made me interested in the ROG Phone 6, and and the Only reason I upgraded from the ROG Phone 3 was that HDMI output was Confirmed (an known issue with the ROG Phone 5).
The own and still have the ROG Phone 2 & 3, the ROG Phone 3 still runs like a champ and did not need to be upgraded. I was able to Live Stream with both predecessor models, and knew the ROG Phone 5 had issues supporting HDMI out and the main reason I did not upgrade from the 3.
The original cooler's had headphone jacks, supported HDMI out and designed to keep the side of the phone free of cables for the Ultimate Mobile Gaming Experience. I don't know know why Asus went away from this design. The Aero Active Cooler 6 is soo much larger than the original coolers, I do not see this being used on the go and the majority of users will be using this at home, so the Cooler should add functionality to the phone instead of restricting it. I knew the headphone jack was no longer on the cooler and was an acceptable sacrifice for the extra triggers, but not being able to capture video to live stream is making me regret this purchase.
No Video Output with Aero Active Cooler 6 Installed (Upgrade/Downgrade)

Mattias_ASUSWell thanks for the official reply mate. You really increased my knowledge genius. We already know that by now. The reason we are speaking about it here is because we want to know if Asus is going to do something about it?Hello!
To give an official reply, the AAC6 does not support transfer of information through it, the bottom port of the device does not support HDMI output, which means HDMI out cannot be used together with the AAC6.

Mattias_ASUSYou state "the bottom port of the device does not support HDMI output", but it does, without the AAC6 installed, I can capture HDMI video out of both the Side and Bottom USB-C ports.Hello!
