Power flickering can indicate insufficient power supply. Ensure your hub is connected to a power source if it supports charging. Using a powered USB hub can resolve this issue.
Good reminder! You could also try adjusting the device’s load. Unplugging less essential devices may help.

While troubleshooting, remember that not all hubs are the same. The design might vary, so always refer to the user manual for specific repair guides.
That’s true! It’s like a puzzle trying to figure out what each component does. Maybe we should create a wiki for common repairs!

I recently faced issues with my USB multiport hub when using Samsung DeX. Anyone have tips on basic repairs?
Sometimes a simple reset or checking connections can help! What brand is your hub?
If it’s beyond repair, I’ve had luck with the Anker USB-C hubs. They’re reliable and work seamlessly with DeX.
I agree with xcruz! The Anker hubs are great. Just make sure to look for one that has an HDMI output.
What features are most important when choosing a new hub? I’ve seen varying opinions.
Definitely check for power delivery, HDMI support, and USB-A ports for versatility!

If you want a more budget-friendly option, I had success with a Sabrent hub too. Just don’t overload it.
I’ve been using a Vava hub which really impressed me. It has fast charging and supports 4K, ideal for DeX!
That sounds great! How’s the build quality? I want something durable.
I’ve found that some hubs can get hot. What are your experiences with that? I’m cautious about heat issues.
Good point, I had an unfortunate incident with a hub melting! Always check reviews.
