the issue for me is to find a cable that is setup the same as the Oppo provided cable so it does not charge the phone. The only cable that has allowed UAPP to work is a standard Micro USB cable with a Micro USB - USBC adpater (came with my Note 7) but as I say, this charges the phone.
Seems right, since the charging cable you used in that instance has a regular micro-USB connector with a "floating" ID pin (not connected to GND), so when the HA-2 sees that plugged in it charges through it.
I have tried my original Oppo Micro USB cable with the provided MicroUSB - USB C adapter however I get no connection at all.
Don't know much about USB Type-C or its compatibility with the older standards because I haven't had to deal with it at all yet, but I'm seeing a lot of complaints online from people unable to get their old OTG-relevant peripherals to work with their new USB-C phones through various adapters. That Amicroe thing seems to have the type of micro-USB connector you need at the HA-2 end (namely one with ID=GND) but whether you can find one that works with your USB-C adapter or whether you need an entirely different USB-C adapter... I couldn't tell you for sure. My bet would be that it takes a single cable that's USB-C at one end and micro-USB OTG (ID=GND) at the other, if such a thing exists.
