HP USB C to HDMI Adaptor Issues

[GG-123]

My HP USB C to HDMI adaptor isn't working properly on my Windows laptop, Mac or Huawei Mate20 Pro. (All these devices support ALT mode)

Sometimes, no sound is outputted and sometimes there is no picture. I have tried it with multiple TVs and HDMI cables. Occasionally, the HDMI part becomes very warm to touch.

Usually these problems are resolved by unplugging the dongle and turning it upside down even though it is a reversible USB C connector.

I cannot contact HP Support because the website says the serial number is not recognised.

Also, I have tried to update the firmware  using this (https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-usb-c-to-hdmi-2.0/17106136) but it said:

In addition, I sometimes get this error message with the adaptor on my phone:
