Allshare APK for CM10

Now, I know how much $h!t people give when you don't research, but I'd like to disclaim that I've looked at a lot of different posts (in xda) and other forums and am still at a loss to find allshare for the GS3.
I've tried the kyanAPPEND method, finding a stock rom and extracting it out of that, and a few other workarounds.
I'm still looking how to install the allshare framework and use it as it's intended.
Please help. Thank you.

What exactly do you want allshare for? There are 3rd party apps that do the same thing. Might I suggest imediashare or skifta.

I want to connect to my Samsung TV. It's fairly new and has allshare.

I have a Samsung TV as well. And have found that twonky video works a lot better and it let's you stream any video from almost all websites and your personal stuff

There you have it imediashare, skifty and twonky you'll find plenty of apps that replace allshare.

I personally use I media share paid version and I like how it ports to not just Samsung TVs but my apple TV. Not to mention it gets rid of that annoying allow popup.

Do any of these allow full mirroring? I think AllShare allows a full mirror image unless it is playing a video then the screen on the phone goes black to save battery.

That's a feature called AllShare Cast - different from the media sharing AllShare. There is no equivalent 3rd party option; it's a proprietary Samsung thing.
As of right now there is no way to use any of the AllShare components on non-TouchWiz ROMs... and it most certainly will never be possible.

Sucks about AllShare. I have used it to connect to my computer files (samsung laptop) and i have a samsung Blu Ray player with wifi that worked with it.

Volume control?
Allshare allows control of your tvs volume as well, do these apps perform this function?
And does anyone actually know where to find allshare or are we all against the use of it? haha

Does anyone know of a similar app that will work with LG TVs?

It's not hard to find - take it from any stock ROM package. It just won't work on AOSP ROMs.
And yes, BubbleUPnP will (or at least should) control renderer (TV) volume.

I use my samsung galaxy tab to view content of my amdroid phone.. any app for this?
Sent from my GT-I9103 using Tapatalk 2

I like BubbleUpNP. Its on the play store and its free.
I use it with my BluRay player to stream content from my phone onto my TV. I can stream on the Xbox, PS3.
If you buy the license, I did, it lets you search through all the files on your phone and you can set up an internet server too, so you can stream to a device via the web.
Its pretty cool.

Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1803436 I have an epic4gtouch on cm10.1 that I'm about to try this on. I have tried all the other upnp/dlna apps and to me they are horrible and buggy even with the stock rom.. allshare has always worked great with my Samsung "non-smart"lcd tv with allshare (just has an ethernet input in the back) and my Samsung laptop running ps3media server. I hope the link helps you out, since only a couple people addressed your question and not tell you to try bubbleUpnp... Home dia is the closest decent one..

Allshare Cast and Multiview: Must Read!

*Allshare Cast and Multiview: Must Read!People, I have fallen in love once again with this phone. I have had it since early November. I am a huge streamer of movies from my phone. I use the wireless Allshare Wireless Hub. Today I got curious and wondered what would happen if I streamed video from my phone and while watching use the multiview feature to see what would happen. And what happened made me the proudest owner of this smartphone ever. The video stayed in full screen people! On the tv! But still allowed me to go to other apps as if I was just letting it play fullscreen video! I know u can tell I'm excited. But this is absolutely amazing and it does it without a hiccup. I'm actually streaming a movie to my big screen from my Note 2 while I write this post at the same time, all from my Note. Samsung is the ish!*Let me know if this is something u all already knew. Am I late to the party?

Wow. Good to know this works. Are you streaming a movie you downloaded onto the phone or you are streaming a movie from say Netflix?

That's a good question, I was using the native video player, but I just tried Netflix and it also does the same thing for Netflix. One word...Awesome! But it's weird. When I'm watching Netflix in multi view and I go to the other window, Netflix pauses. Annoying. Guess its not optimized for multi view. I'm rooted with stock and I have the Xposed tweak for all apps in multi view.

Yea, I found this out last week. Only works with videos directly on the phone. Hasn't worked with netflix, hulu, or hbo go as they pause and stop streaming. I was pretty impressed too, hopefully this improves.

I don't see how I could be that late. For one thing we just got the multi view update without having to root. I was rooted with Jedi 7.2, I couldn't even get my Allshare cast hub to work then because of the stupid counter. So once the update finally came out I went back to stock using the injected root method, reset my counter with Triangle, and then installed the Xposed tweak. Unless you've had the international version I don't see how I could be that late.

You lucky T-mobile users. The AT&T version disables simultaneous use of multi window and allshare cast. I hope someone can pinpoint the difference. This is a feature I really wanted in my phone

I stream 1080p no problem.

By the way MHL also works like that. I found out yesterday when watching Youtube and using multiwindow that Youtube stayed full screen and I could actually minimize it to just a tiny sliver on the bottom and use the rest of the screen to do whatever else I wanted on multiscreen. I was just as pumped as you were! My girlfriend was over at the time and I described it to her as a "Geekgasm!" lol :victory:

My allshare cast sucked. Dropped frames, had to resync everytime you wanted to connect a new samsung mobile device. Just to sync, it would take 20 tries. Very painful experience. Ill stick to using dlna through my sammy bd player. Works perfect every time.

I am streaming videos, youtube and all online videos from note 2 to my laptop/TV using iMediaShare. Watching streamed videos from phone on TV/laptop screen and simulataneously operating phone as normal including multiview.

I thought the all share dongle only works with stock.. cause mine wouldn't connect unless I was on stock.. and when I went to tv links on line and tried to watch tv the voices would lag... the dongle sucks.. I got the note 2 smart dock.. it has a hdmi slot and usb ports for a cordless mouse.. it's way better...

Hi everyone!
I've been an iphone user and finally made the big switch with the Galaxy Note 2 because of the multi view feature and the screen recording mode feature (which apparently never ended up working).
I have a stock (4.1.2) Unlocked international version n7100 Galaxy Note 2 that I've been using with an allshare cast hub. The video is a little glitchy but for the most part works great. I came to this thread by doing a google search on multiview with allshare cast.
I really want to be able to use multi view while I'm connected to allshare cast hub and streaming videos. This feature doesn't seem to work on my phone. Do I have to have my phone rooted to do this? I've never done a custom rom or rooted my phone before and I'd like to avoid that if at all possible. Do you just hold the back button during a video to bring up multiview like you would when not connected to allshare cast?
Also, has anyone figured out how to watch netflix while using multiview yet without having it pause video? I'd like to get all of my apps working in multiview and from what I've read so far the only way to do that is by rooting phone, correct?

One of my proudest moments with my Note. I feel you man. It's a great feeling what this phone can do.

I am Stock Rooted, only so that I could download and use Xposed for the xMulti Window Mod to use all my apps in the multi window. I have noticed the Netflix bug with the movie pausing when you try to use Multiview. I have found that if you start using multiview before you click on the movie to watch it will no longer pause. What I do is I open netflix and then use multiview to bring in another app on screen and then I play the movie. Works everytime. And it works like it should without pausing. And you are able to change apps as normal. But i would def. recommend getting the Multi Window Mod so that you can experience the Multiview the way it should have been out the box. I don't know why they didn't allow all apps out the gate. The only apps that I have trouble with in multiview is TMZ and Flipboard. Otherwise I am a multiview crackhead.
Hope this helps!

Note 8 to LG Smart TV, what are my options?

I'm currently running rooted stock Jelly Bean 4.1(with plans to flash official Kitkat) and I'm looking into getting a smart TV most likely an LG. The model I'm considering has the following inbuilt 'smart' share options:
Google DIAL
MIRACAST Screen Share
MHL Screen Share
WiDi
The TV has these connectivity options:
WiFi Ready(wifi not built in, needs adapter)
WiFi Direct
Simplink
I know DIAL is a new thing without much traction right now, WiDi is exclusive to Intel devices. I'm particularly keen on wireless screen mirroring to the TV, so my questions are:
-Can I connect seamlessly via Miracast with my Note 8?
-Which currently available android version on our device works best for screen mirroring(4.1, 4.2 or 4.4)?
-Is Allshare any specific app necessary to mirror my screen or is it natively supported by the ROM?
-Will it be beneficial to buy a chromecast? Will it work with the Note 8?
I've scoured through the Note 8 forums and screen mirroring isn't mentioned a whioe lot and often just in passing. There are many posts concerning allshare not working with rooted stock ROMs, but many of these are old posts from last year. There's hardly mention of screen mirroring on Kitkat. Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Not sure about LG being 100% compatible... I have a 2009 Samsung with DNLA and AnyLink+
The AnyLink+ connects any Samsung device with automatic turn on and input change. Plus it will turn off the TV if the device should turn off.
From what I see the LG should do what you need as AnyNet+ is really not a requirement.

Miracast is the feature called Screen Mirroring on the quick action bar.
As for Samsung Link / All Share, there are some latency issues but with Chinese Miracast/DLNA dongles some provide very fast response to limit latency.
All Share is the same thing as Link... both use Samsung's Miracast... depending on your Samsung updates, you should have an All Share firmware update installed to the tablet. Once you connect with the All Share device the firmware is automatically updated.

cast screen and screen mirroring on a samsung tv

Hi guys
I know there are threat about this matter but none of them have any solution . As you know Samsung phones have smart view which can screen mirror and control your smart TV.
Nexus 5x doesn't recognize Mira cast devices and with changing build.prop althogh it can recognize the TV but unable to connect to it. Do you guys have any idea to solve this problem?
I'm sure there is a software way. Because there shouldn't be a hardware problem with Nexus 5x .
Did any one connect a Nexus 5x to Samsung TV?

I think it depends on the year of the Samsung TV. My 4K is a 2014 model and doesn't do screen cast or mirroring yet my in-laws is 2016 and I believe does work.

Mine is a 2016 model and can't connect to it. There should be a way for this problem . Is there any way to port samsung smart view app on Nexus 5x?

Any idea?

Miracast was removed with (I think) 6.0. It's a proprietary API.
There's a few people on the 6p forums trying to get it to work, with little success.
You can change the following in the build.prop to get the Samsung device to show up on the list, the phone connects, but it doesn't cast.
persist.debug.wfd.enable=1
You also need to set Allow WiFi in the cast options.
BTW, the Smart View app is just a remote control app. It should work just fine, as long as your phone and TV are connected to the same network.
Edit: really should have read the op before replying, I basically said the same thing as you!

Yes it works in chrome cast but chrome cast need a router and that slow down the streaming . The benefit from the screen mirroring is that your phone connect directly to your smart tv so you have a smooth and fast experience on it .a 3rd party device like chrome cast is not a good alternative for screen mirroring.

I wasn't saying Chromecast is a great alternative. I was just saying I might've not been directly connected to the TV like I originally thought. While we're on it though, Chromecast does get the job done for the most part though if your router is close and fast.
