thanks both - will give them a try

is there any working apk of allshare for the GNex?

SKIFTA app
https://market.android.com/details?...sMSwxLDUwMSwiY29tLnNraWZ0YS5hbmRyb2lkLmFwcCJd

doubleTwist AirSync? Not sure if that is what you might need.

2Player is awesome

has anyone tried the AllShare apps ripped from the SGS-III?
I would be interested to see if they could work (think it came with 3 different ones?) and If there is a certain order you need to install them...? Ill try and find them and report back. Just checking to see if anyone has had any luck?
edit: Found them, there are 4 apps of the sort on the SGS-III...
AllshareDMC.apk
AllshareMediaServer.apk
AllSharePlay.apk
AllshareService.apk
I'll try and play with them tonight and see if I can sync with my Sammy smart tv

Ok, only AllSharePlay would install and it gave me a FC every time I tried to open.
I wonder if I am missing some lib files that normally go along with the apk's?
Need to look closer into the system dump... :-(

Thank you for your suggestion
for me: official xbmc really helped me a lot since my lcd (that do not have DLNA) are connected to my PC through HDMI (also plex have very potential for local/online streaming)
thus my solution for streaming from phone to LCD : local synced folder (sync media between my phone & PC)

OK, so this dev over on rootxwiki posted a deodexed version of the SGS3 stock Vzw rom and I grabbed the allshare files from it.
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/29656-rom-stock-vzw-rooted-deodexed-zipaligned/
Same result, allshareplay was the only one that wanted to install (on Pete's BB 4.1.1) and would FC every time. Previously on AOKP so I doubt the "new" rom is causing the issue. Probably needs some lib files to go along with the apk or something? Any ideas???

What's with the obsession with allshare? Allshare is bloatware there's imediashare that does so much more and there's skifta among others. Give them all a try and see what you like. Forget allshare.

Have you looked at ArrMC application?

Vids/pics/music on XBOX

Surprised no one has talked about this at all. Anyway, happened to be watching Netflix on my XBOX last night, and while doing so, was checking out some pictures on my phone. Saw a button I never seen before that kind of looked like a little computer screen with 3 lines kind of going through it. I guess it said something like "view on another player". This apparently being the first time I was using my S3 and XBOX at the same time. So I press the button, and it stops my movie, and shows my picture on my TV!
Did some fooling around. As long as I'm using a stock music, video, or gallery app, and the file is on the phone itself, it will stream through my XBOX at the touch of a button. The free Avengers movie in Media Hub didn't work, Netflix didn't work. USB transferred an episode of Hell on Wheels over to the phone, it asked if I wanted to convert it to assure it would work on the phone and said yes, tried it out and it worked pretty good. I can only imagine how nice it would have looked if I hadn't converted it, going to try later and see.
Was just curious if anyone else has used this feature at all? Seems pretty cool to me.

I think that's DLNA.

The TV has nothing to do with it, it's going through my XBOX. It was just crazy to me because I've never been able to link my XBOX and computer properly, and I can see my computer in the gallery app sometimes but I can never see any files. I did happen to start a test on my battery while having basically everything running and all options available, so I have activated some options I normally don't use. I think one night I tried messing with the settings on my XBOX to get it to show my phone since it comes up on my roomie's PS3 although I've never tried using this feature on that before. Since I don't use my XBOX a whole lot lately, and I imagine it's possible others don't use it at the same time, I thought I'd mention it.
aNYthing, is that exactly what DLNA is? because, if so, there's a lot of people going and buying that allshare hub thing that wouldn't need to if they have an XBOX or PS3. Obviously Samsung is not going to promote that! I don't have the DLNA share option being used so it never occurred to me that it could be using it. I guess I assumed DLNA was something that was used to go directly to the TV, which in my case, is not what's happening, and definitely not possible.

on the phone. XBOX was already playing a Netflix movie. Pressed it and it stopped the movie I was watching, and a few seconds later, it appeared on my TV. Swiped to another pic, and IT popped up. Watched a short video I took the other day, it looked GREAT! As I said, I'm not really sure what I changed or if I established a link between my S3 and XBOX before or not but hey, it was pretty damn cool to me, lol.

Try serviio on your computer and enjoy videos on your computer through Xbox and on your phone. I've been using it for years

works great on my xbox. i'm sure the file has to be compatible but you probably won't get the other viewer option if it's not anyway.
My main purpose of this post was to find other people using the same feature and if they have any tips such as, what files will work for this or what apps can use it, etc.

had no idea i could do this until i saw this thread. thank you!

You have to be connected to the same Wi-Fi and it will work.
Or you can yes double twist and it does the same thing.

I made a tut on how to do this on the PS3 but it didn't seem too many people were interested in it. Simple though get a video converter and convert the movies to mp4 standard and don't let the phone convert it on transfer leave it the way it is and it will work no matter what, the phone sends everything by means of media player so any device that allows media server wifi conection will play from this device.

You might want to try triangle away app that might get things working for you.
I just use the allshare cast built into the stock based roms, and connect it to my ps3 or xbox.

Yea, I actually went and bought traingle away. That didn't seem to help. I've tried different ROMs and different modems and not having much luck... I actually just got a replacement as I broke my other one. This one has the same issue.
It's like it's almost there... just Android hangs up when making the connection.

To the OP. You can purchase a MHL adapter that allows you to plug your phone into an HDMI slot on your tv.

I know this wasn't in reply to me. It is really the simple solution... but loses the wow effect of showing someone your phone screen on your HDTV wirelessly. I'd give anything to just to be able to try it out.
On another note...
Still haven't made any progress with my All Share Cast wifi hub, yet. I've tried complete stock pre-root from the factory (that's what I meant with my replacement...phone not the hub), custom roms and various modems. each time android settings seems to force close. This came straight from T-mobile.
Tried triangle away, as well. Each time I connect I get "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped."
The odd thing is, if I go back to look at AllShare Cast in settings, it shows I'm connected. However, it does not mirror and cannot receive any video I even try to share to it. The tv still thinks the hub is trying to connect.
I was so excited to use this too
edit: All ROMs I've used have been stock based (Wicked v7. Frosty's JB, and now XquiziT v40 with modem T999UVLEM)
Maybe play around with more modems tonight.

Running stock I can watch movies that are on my phone through my Xbox. PS3 too although Xbox is with one touch from the phone, with PS3 it just acts as a media server. Doesn't work for videos that aren't on the phone already, for example YouTube.
Can anyone else verify that what the OP is trying to do works?

streaming to Xbox360 UPnP apps

I have run into an frustrating issue as of late regarding streaming music from my s3 through my xbox using the built in music player. What is happening is the music player will randomly pause while streaming, requiring me to press the play button to get it going again. This is not being caused by incoming messages or calls. I don't have voice enabled. Keep wifi on is also enabled.
Strong wifi signal through entire home. Running frosty Jb v7.
If it's a player issue whats the best alternative? I tried a few from the play store 2player, bubble UPnp, poweramp , winamp. They either have ****ty interfaces or act just as wonky.
Maybe I am just not understanding the tech of it. I turn the xbox, tv and stereo on. Then push the icon on my music player(see attached photo) and it starts streaming through the xbox. I thought it was pretty slick until it started acting up on me.

I'm getting the same thing. Happens more often when I put the phone on shuffle.

Possibly a custom kernel issue? No idea, just a thought. I know they can cause things to not work properly sometimes.

Was on stock. Good thought though.

I tried bubble UPnP for a while.. didnt like the interface to begin with.. I want to go to artist then sort through various albums. It did work however until the program itself began freezing up and not retrieving my files. So that was a no go.

I am stock. Am I able to stream music as well? Or do I need a particular rom ...Assuming you guys figure this out.

Can be done on stock as well. Its a built in feature, just need to have a wireless(wifi) capable tv, xbox, or ps3 (maybe some thing else like adapters) pretty sure anything DLNA capable. And phone and Device need to be on same wifi.

I did it on stock very easy. If you have Xbox, as long as it's on, your good. If you are watching Netflix, it will stop what you are watching. You have to use a stock samsung app. I just go through my gallery, find a pic or a movie, choose it, and there is an option which looks like a monitor with a couple of hornizontal arrows going through it. This doesn't work for streaming something on a website or whatever. If it is a file already saved to your phone it will work. All you have to do is go to the picture, or start playing the video, tap the screen and on the top you will find that different icon. Again, you have to have your Xbox ON or it won't show the icon. For Xbox it is cool because you could start watching the video or pic on your phone and want to say to everyone, HEY< WATCH THIS! and with one click it goes.
You can also connect it to work with PS3 but it only works as a media server. Meaning, with Xbox, you can decide, hey, I want to watch this on the Xbox now! With PS3, you have to search for the file and THEN, play it. It's not such an immediate action.

[APP] XBMC on GN II

The folks at XBMC just released their newest version 12.0 "Frodo" Beta 2, and it's working great on our Galaxy Note 2. I though I'll share it with you guys, especially those who familiar with XBMC. Anyone interested can download the apk here http://xbmc.org/download/

This is awesome. With HDMI out, I now have a portable Media center. No need to run it off of my PC.
Sent from my SGH-T889 hot! PhoTab

Awesome. Great catch! My only issue with it is that it doesn't seem to want to detect the S-pen. For instance, when I was adding my media paths took out the s-pen to tap the folders and nothing. No screen tap detection. Anyone else having that issue?
Also, it took me a second to locate my external SD. Selecting external media actually takes you to the internal "sdcard" I had to go root filesystem, storage, extsdcard. My first Samsung device (been a HTC guy since the blue angel) so perhaps this is the norm but throwing that out there for those who may not know.

I can confirm that s-pen doesn't work with this app. But nonetheless, its still a great program. Since this app is still in beta, it could only get better.

In case you didn't find it- it's all in the setup...
For anyone who may not know xbmc stands for:
X-Box Media Center (of which it was(/is?) originally a port)
There are tons of add-ons you can install. Getting it fully setup can become an on-going evolution.
By hooking your device up to your TV & running this app you can essentially cancel your cable subscription and replace it with xbmc
There are also some additional skins & add-ons which can be found & downloaded elsewhere with a regular browser and installed from within the app (meaning: you can't get to everything that is truly available for this app from within it, although there's plenty available there...)
