I'm trying to find an app or a way to browse the music that is stored on my phone and then stream it to my htpc (Windows 7) and then play it on my surround.
I have figure out how to browse the music the htpc has on the phone with xbmc remote and gmote but that's not what i want. Bluetooth or Wifi should both be fine.
Also if i would like to stream pictures and videos too, it would be a bonus but not really important right now.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
You should be able to pair your phone with the htpc via Bluetooth at which point it should be available as an audio input device. This shouldn't require any third party drivers or anything, have you tried this yet?

I just want to use my phone to play music to all my computers around the house and in my car. aah long story short this is driving me crazy! I need to figure this out so i can sleep again
I can do it in my car but I've never heard of the other way around

hmmm ok, this is not what i'm looking for.
So here is the lay out:
1. Music on the phone
2. Phone connects to PC, preferably with WiFi but i will take BT if need be
3. PC is connected to Sound System
4. Phone streams music on the pc, sound comes out on the sound system connected on the PC
5. Selection of songs happens on the phone, next, forward, pause etc
6. Monitor on the pc is off the whole time
I also have a PS3 ... so instead of PC it could be that.
That's what's going on with my set up, all it does is play everything your phone speaker would through your computer speakers... right?
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
My way, it automatically connects to my phone without asking.
I play whatever music I want on my phone and my computer plays the sound
You can try and find third part software but for WiFi they only function as remotes

Yes, that's correct. And you can select tracks on your phone? If that's the case then you saved the day!
I'm having issues with pairing my phone at this point, it says paired but not connected.

For anyone else that's a Splashtop fan (Like Me!).
Splashtop RDP HD and THD are not currently compatible with the Nexus 7. I've contacted their support email and received the following:
Thanks for your inquiry.
Currently the HD version needs “xLarge” screen, so 7’’ devices are filtered. But the upcoming 2.0 version will add support for “large” screen devices, so Nexus 7 will be supported at that time.
The Gamepad THD app currently only supports ASUS Transformer Prime, we also will add more devices to support, however, since we don’t have a Nexus 7 yet, so I don’t know whether it can be supported in the future.

Hopefully this means we'll have RDP HD soon, but we may still be left looking for a solution for THD.
Mods, I figured this went here since it was discussing a particular App. If not, please feel free to move it appropriately.

I've bought RDP, RDP HD and Gamepad THD so I'm all set hopefully that 2.0 update comes soon though.
It may be possible to use the build.prop mods to alter the density to 160, and get the device reporting itself as xlarge.
Perhaps someone with an actual device could test this?
I got Splashtop THD to login to my PC running ST2 other day but that's as far as I got. I'll try again later in the day & report back.

I was able to get RDP HD installed and connect to a box running 2.0 but all I got was a black screen. I watched myself controlling it (mouse, etc) but no visual on the n7.

Yeap, I got the same result.
That's weird. Both RDP and RDP HD installed and run well on my N7... I bought both versions on the Amazon App Store however. The only reason why I stuck with the RDP version is that the HD version is locked in landscape orientation.

What's your DPI @ when running the HD version and what version is the streamer you're connecting to?
Why can't Splashtop make their HD version part of the original app? Ugh, things like that just annoy me.
I had this issue on my xoom with this app before.
Went to splashtop's site and found a fix.
It had me change something in my registry on my PC. I don't remember what that was though, but I never had that problem again.
Anyone got this working on the N7 if so can you post a video to show if it lags and what not.
Also does this require your pc or laptop to be on at all times?

Obviously if the computer is off, but what if the computer is in sleep mode, can you wake it from sleep remotely?
How does this compare to something like Teamviewer?
It is also free which is a perk.
Did get Splashtop HD working. It makes me feel like THD might work as well, but I don't have that app yet.
Was getting the blank screen issue, but after uninstalling and reinstalling and reconfirming the settings on my 2.0 pcs, I'm now getting video at both 160 and 213 dpi
Should also mention that I'm using the computer's native display.

I believe that it should be possible to turn on your computer from sleep if your computer has a wired connection. Not a snowballs chance in hell it would work over wifi though. I think you would be looking for the 'Wake on LAN' option, though be aware that if you protect your PC with a password your computer will turn on but you won't be able to enter the password remotely, you'd have to go to the PC itself to do so.

Looking for a wireless solution similar to Samsung all share.
I don't know if one but if you hear be sure to tell me too.
And unless Samsung changed All Share since I had my epic touch you couldn't wireless mirror. It only would let you do videos, audio, and images wirelessly. Please correct me if I am wrong but I am pretty sure on this.
I think what the poster is referring to is wirelessly mirroring everything like browsing the net and playing games.
To add to this, I saw a Korean video of someone demonstrating the optimus g on a tv while using the phone wirelessly. So it is possible. I don't know what app it was but I don't remember a cord. If I find the video I will post the link.
Edit: Here is the link. I see no wire.

I have a Netgear Miracast/Intel WiDi display adapter connected to my tv. The OG picks up the Netgear as a compatible adapter and seems ready to output to it wirelessly but when I tell it to connect, nothing happens. The OG says it is connecting but never actually does. I noticed though that the instructions the phone displays says to either connect the LG Miracast dongle or turn on the Miracast feature on the tv. So potentially a LG Miracast donlge exists that may allow for the use of mirroring the OG or maybe some LG tvs have this feature builtin and it can be used that way.

I upgraded to JB and now when I try to use Miracast with my Netgear PTV3000, it works initially but disconnects after about 2 minutes every time. Also, when streaming HD video over Miracast, its now initially very jerky/choppy (lots of dropped frames), though it eventually smooths out but then as mentioned above, it disconnects. I had no such issues with ICS (everything worked fine) so I think the Miracast streaming/disconnect problems are due to some issue with the stock JB ROM and not my Netgear adapter.
It appears that regardless of the ROM or kernel, if your phone is rooted then the Allshare Cast Wireless Hub will not work. I've searched through nearly every Rom thread in the development section and I couldn't find anyone that has it working. I've tried resetting the flash counter to 0 via Triangle Away and tried using the stock rom and kernel to no avail. The wireless hub was a Christmas gift from my mother and I don't have the heart to take it back because as it stands now it's a $70 paper weight. I looked through the rules and it doesn't appear that these types of threads are against the rules. I'm hoping that someone can find a fix for this that will make it work on rooted phones. I'm even willing to send out my wireless hub to a developer if they don't have one so they can try to fix it.

I had one for a week before returning it to Amazon. It wasn't reliable for me. I seem to remember rooting being ok. However, the Rom and recovery would need to be stock. Maybe I remember wrong.

I'll match you hoffy, I would love to see the hub reliably fixed for our s3's without going back to stock.
I can only match you frustration. I have spent many hours trying myself and researching how to fix this only to find that it appears to be a problem within the kernel its self. With the Rom, kernel, and everything stock it works. I have tried on many threads to see if we could get a dev to pick this up with no avail. We have some great kernels out there and besides who wants to stay 100% stock or let's face it why would we be on Xda forums. I would be willing to donate as well. Their has to be some way to resolve the issue.

I might be misunderstanding the purpose of the hub - AllShare used to be a version of media streaming protocol, allowing devices like Xboxes and bluray players to stem media from your phone. Is the hub supposed to be a way of adding that capability to tvs that don't have it built in?
Or is it supposed to allow full screen sharing? (As in being able to see your home screen or play Angry Birds on your big screen, for example)

The difference is that with media streaming, the file is played by the device being streamed to (streaming basically means that the file is played as it is downloaded, rather than waiting for the whole file to transfer before starting playback). The media must be prerecorded, so live interaction with an app is impossible (and tvs and bluray players have no idea what to do with an apk file).
Screen sharing is more like connecting a camera to your tv and pointing it at your phone's screen - the phone does all of the processing, which is why you can see the android interface and all of your apps in real time. It's basically like your phone is the computer and the tv is just the monitor.

Such screen sharing is just what I want. It allows you to use all the nice tools and apps on the phone, instead of the crude sequential slide shows one can see on the TV, for example. Also, sometimes I want to demo a program or show a map from my phone on the big screen, so others can see it happen (looking over one's shoulder isn't optimal!).
Allshare cast requires a additional accessories. Call a hub. It will then share your phone screen with other devices. Tv's. Cpu etc

Unfortunately, you won't be able to do that with a bluray player... If you can connect a computer to a display large enough for your needs (such as your tv), then you might be able to set up a vnc server on your phone and a vnc viewer on the computer. The setup might take some tweaking, especially to deal with screen rotation, and vnc is likely to have a slight lag... otherwise, it appears that the AllShare hub or a similar device (if one exists and is compatible) will be the only other way to do wireless screen sharing
On a semi related note, does anyone here know what the hdmi cable for the S3 will display on the external screen? In other words, does it share the screen or just media that is playing on the phone?

Let me start off with a disclaimer: I have never used Allshare, nor do I have a hub. That being said, I would put a good chunk of money on the problem being caused by HDCP. I would recommend researching this.

It will share the screen, if you have the proper cable (and 5-11 pin adapter with some older cables); I have a Galaxy Note II, and that also works well sharing the screen. One can also use DLNA features to share media, but I find that screen sharing is much more convenient, since one has all the user interface advantage of the Android apps. I also would prefer if screen sharing could be done wireless. Samsung is being coy about this issue, I think, confusing everyone with the AllShare names, keeping the descriptions vague, etc. If one can share screen wirelessly with any Samsung Smart TV, even the latest, I haven't seen any posts to verify that. Some posts seem to imply that the "dongle" is needed only for older TVs, but that seems to be incorrect (and the dongle seems not to work well in any case from my reading). I would be happy to have these conclusions refuted.
AllShare Cast HUB mirrors everything u see on ur phone on ur tv. AllShare App streams pics, videos, music. Just like IMedia Share. Mirroring and Streaming are different.

Sprint Note 2 SPH-L900
The vid below is the only proof I was able to find of it working with a modified ROM. His kernel looks stock. I tried it with Whomp 2.6 with no luck although he is running 2.4 in this vid. I had already bought TriangleAway from PlayStore which did reset my flash counter on-screen without the resetting phone cycle it goes through otherwise but I think this was only when I had Perseus kernel or before I said yes to the MA7 update which failed anyway due to not being stock. Now that I set it back to stock kernel with stock boot loader TA will no longer visually reset my flash counter. I originally rooted with the Note2 toolkit and opted for adding the insecure boot image. I am going to try to just re-flash to complete stock and use CF auto and see how it goes. I just want to use my allshare cast dongle so I can keep the phone charged when screen sharing AND be rooted. Stupid to have to jump through so many hoops to use this dongle and some apps that only work if rooted.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WeKPxZiimpo
**Update** I messed with it some more and tried to keep track of the variable steps I did to make it work for me. I left Whomp 2.6 installed and did a full wipe in stock boot-loader. I noticed after 1st boot before any updates or downloads happened that my device status reported as "normal". The 1st things I downloaded were my SuperSU Pro key and my paid Triangle Away. I ran Triangle Away which was no longer able to give an on-screen flash count in android on the stock kernel but it seems to do what it is supposed to do as it showed everything was stock in download mode. After I rebooted from the 1st run of Triangle Away I checked status which was in a long cycle of "scanning" only to end in "Modified" status. I finally got Allshare Cast to work like the vid above. I'm pretty sure you just need to check the box at the bottom for the system modified workaround in Triangle Away. Now I need to update to MA7 and see if I can still have everything work.
**Working great update** Whompasaurus 2.7.1 and stock bootloader and stock kernel. Think I may have taken the "long-cut" but I pretty much got it all working with this ROM and Triangle Away. Allshare Cast dongle is working great. Watched every episode of CHOSEN on Crackle on the TV. Somehow I broke Pie Navigation Control so I just re-installed the APK and it works again. Only thing that fails now is trying to use the ROMs wifi tether which crashes the phones Settings but at least with no lockup just a slight delay and back to normal just no launching of wifi tether. I will try to do the same for that. For now I have Klink usb that I bought a while ago.
Question is since apparently i can not use sidesync to mirror my screen to my laptop any longer through usb or samsung focus or the windows phone app cause it only allows when connected to the same wifi. Does anyone know of a way to mirror to laptop through my usb. Also the laptop is a samsung 7 spin. This is the kind of crap that really pisses me off about samsung too they always mess with a good thing and it feels like they are scaling back on all the cool stuff that made them great before. Starting to act like freaking iphone.
What about Samsung DEX? Did you try it?

If you are able too (or know how) you can setup a personal hotspot and connect the phone to your personal hotspot. I used to do this in school with my notebook, was a great way to keep an eye for important phone calls or messages while taking notes on html code or visual basic homework.
Otherwise for USB connections you can use Samsung dex for windows. While not exactly like screen mirroring (there are some very minor trivial differences) you still are able to interact with (and use) your phone and apps.

Samsung DEX IS the mirroring option you are loooking for. Or, I don't understand what YOU mean by mirroring.
What DEX does: after installing DEX for windows, connect your phone to the laptop/pc by means of a GOOD usb cable. In a few seconds you'll see on the screen of your computer part of the apps you have on your phone's Homescreen. Then you can use your laptop keyboard and mouse to work on your phone. It is true, that not all apps are compatible with DEX, part of them may work on full screen only and part of them only on a smaller window.
As I understand, you are looking for full mirroring which DEX doesn't provide. I think, but I'm not sure about this, you need an usb c to hdmi adaptor/cable in order to have your phone mirrored.

I bought this specifically for use for XCloud and it works flawlessly:

This is exactly what I was talking about. Does it work with the Note 10+?

Use projecting to this PC option of windows 10, and turn on your smart view and connect it then you can mirror it to laptop

There is only one problem with the cable/adaptor: laptops usually do not have an hdmi input port.

Ill look into buying this or similar and trying it out. Just that when im out in the middle of nowhere where my mom lives and of course no wifi and im trying to watch my streaming services from my phone to my moms tv i cant because cant smart view without internet. And so when i use up my hotspot data i used to connect to my laptop with sidesync then my laptop to my moms tv and be able to use my streaming services. Yes dex is o.k. but if i try watching dishanywhere wont work actually most streaming services dont work.

Yes, I have a Sprint Note 10+ and it works flawlessly. Set it on a wireless charger and good to go.

This is indeed the mirroring mode the original poster was looking for. I tried it and it works, but I don't see any advantage on using it. There is a 0.5 sec delay between acting on the Note 10+ and seeing the result on the big screen. Also, I tried switching my laptop's screen to portrait mode and then mirroring, hoping I will be able to get a bigger mirrored image, but I didn't.
What do you use for the screen mirroring? Watching movies?
