I know a lot of us have been struggling with the changes to Samsung DeX and One UI 8 — myself included. Bugs, missing features, feature parity issues… it’s been rough.

But I came across this post, and given the movement towards Google’s android desktop, I decided to try the configuration in this post to trigger desktop mode: https://xdaforums.com/t/finally-got-a-desktop-mode-working.4708176/

It looks like the virtual display feature from scrcpy now seems to work with desktop mode! There are still some bugs, but this is the first time I’ve gotten it working. I’ve been testing this on Galaxy Fold devices, and this doesn’t work for me on fold 6, but it does work on fold 7.
