I have a dish network receiver with sling built in, so I just use the dish app to watch mine. Works for live or recorded tv and its no extra cost.

i've got it running on mine and although it's a bit finicky i still use it daily
Hey guys, thanks yeah I am looking for live tv. I was hoping justin, ustream or adhte would work.
So finally ive figured out that this service is only for Samsung devices. I spent hours but couldn't connect my LG Smart TV (LM7600) and finally found that I can use DLNA but not neccessarily Allshare app
Sad But True!

yes It does and not one thing on it that helps. Im leaning towards the modem settings
Looks neat this thing. The Wifi sharing of the galaxy s3 screen sounds nice.. till I learned atm no JB support? No HD game support it seems.
Galaxy s3 wifi connectivity to LG LM 7600
I am trying to share my mobile screen (Note: not to view picture or movies like in iMediashare), the entire screen.
When i use Wi-fi direct i am able to link TV and mobile, but i dont know how to share mobile screen in TV
When i choose Allplay cast, TV is able to recognize the mobile(Mobile scanning does not show TV) and able to send connection request from TV, I am able to accept the request in mobile but not able to share the screen in TV
If any one have done screen sharing from S3 to LG smart TV could you please share
If you're waiting for the AllShare hub to get under $50 and live in the US, you can register your phone through the Samsung website and they email you a 50% off mobile accessories coupon.

This! I got an email from samsung about this and after I registered I got the discount code via email. Sucks I just bought the hub on amazon for $72 like a week ago too. Maybe I can still return it.
To the OP, ya anything Allshare is samsung proprietary so you have to use wifi direct to output video, picture, and music to your LG. I had the same TV and wifi direct works better than allshare play which takes way too long to connect and sometimes doesnt connect so you have to keep going at it. I have a samsung tv too which I kept rather than replacing it with the LG.
But the allshare cast hub can mirror your phone and will work on any TV so I went with that instead just incase I upgrade my TV with another brand.
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.
What tv do u have?

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.
Where was that monitor icon? On Xbox or phone?

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

Yeah bro I use this feature a lot since I can't shell out the cash for the special mhl adapter. I watch videos play music and view slide shows on my xbox and hdtv through dlna.

i have heard that ps3 media server works on xbox and you can do .mkv over it, also recently TVERSITY has been updated to supposedly do .mkv but I am yet to try it
It'll work on any dlna enabled device like my bravia tv

No whatever device your trying to connect to must be on the same network as your phone.

Doesnt the end device have to be codec compatible ?
I had issues with video stuttering or simply not playing on my Viera.
Have not tried my xbox but I will.
No it just streams it. If it stutters it might be ur connection or ur tv.

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.

has anyone tried wifi tethering to the device and seeing if it plays that way
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.
I have a brand new panasonic TV streamer that does miracast and DLNA, and also a roku. I want to be able to mirror my S4 to one of those devices, but I cant seem to make it work. I know youre supposed to buy the samsung dongle but that seems like a waste of money. I CAN use an app called 'Beam' that will let me choose online videos from youtube, vimeo, or any other website and stream them to my panasonic TV streamer or roku. So I know the S4 can see and stream content to both devices, but I want to be able to stream my entire phone and not just videos. Does anyone have any idea of how I would be able to do this? I am rooted. I would VERY much appreciate any help.
