I have managed to get an old OnePlus5T phone up and running with PostmarketOS and have hosted a couple of services there.

If it possible to charge and give Ethernet connection using those multi port extensions on a phone?

Thought I’d ask before investing in one as I am on a super tight budget.

    Probably much more involved with the OP5T, but when I looked into running my Note 4 as a display without a battery, I discovered that you just needed to show a couple pins a 3.7V signal and it’d think there was a battery installed. This can be accomplished with a dime-sized voltage converter connected to the input power.
