Allshare Cast and Multiview: Must Read! - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

*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.

Yes, you are late to the party by 2 months. But enjoy !

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

Thank God I left AT&T for the $30 T-Mobile plan. They really are the devil.

Are you guys streaming 1080p content without problems through Allshare?

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!

LG SmartShare

Does anyone know if it's possible to get the SmartShare app that comes with LG phones to work with the S3? Just got an LG smart TV and want to use this feature. I did find an APK, but it just force closes after installation with the message 'manufacturer not match'
I'm not sure on the implications of this and I would check but I suppose you could alter thebbuil prop to saybthis is an lg phone and not a Sammy.
Check first as I have no idea of it's problems etc

No it never will and never was! Works with LG's verry well, don't get the OP's point why he wants the SmartShare app if AllShare can do the same...
DLNA is a standard so should work with ALL DLNA capable products!
Only screen mirror and that kind of (non_DLNA) functions will work per brand...
I actually find BubbleUPnP better than AllShare too as you can assign a different video player app - take a look at that if you're not a fan of AllShare.

No Allshare app is only for Samsung devices for now. Samsung wants to include other brands too eventually but for now all Samsung devices can be connected thru it. My LG smart tv is not recognized on it and just like allshare, LG has their own Smartshare. OP can still use DLNA directly on S3 to connect his TV but allshare would only work with Samsung devices
I have actually patched the manufacturer check but it crashes on my Nexus 7... I will share apk here so you can test it on your device.
NOTE: I do not think this is going to work on any device exept LG becouse of some kernel modules that are developed by LG and included only in their phones.
Does not works :crying:

[Review] Allshare Cast Dongle - lag/disconnection problems solved

Just got mine this morning. I was a little surprised it came next day from ordering because I never paid for express delivery.
Anyway when I opened it, I was surprised the dongle is so small and compact. It will be handy to take on trips.
l have just had a good play with it on my 47" hdtv and it's better than I thought it would be. There is only one button on it and it is used for resetting the dongle to use with other S3's. So when you first turn it on you must press reset to pair it with your S3. I did have to connect it a couple of times before it would stick but once it's connected, it will connect every time now.
The S3's screen is mirrored exactly. It will also auto rotate to fill your tv screen if your screen rotation is on. Although there is a slight delay when the screen rotates there is no delay when starting apps and games or viewing your pictures. Playing videos is not mirrored though using the stock video player. Unfortunately you can not use the S3 while watching video. It will stop playing if you exit the video player.
Browsing the Web on a large screen is a pretty good experience. It's great for sharing with others. When watching YouTube, your S3 screen will go black and it will fill the screen of your tv. You can still browse for related videos while its playing but not exit the playing YouTube video page otherwise it will stop. I really like this web browsing on a big screen while controlling it on my S3. I can see myself using the dongle for this a lot.
Now to the fun aspect of this dongle which is playing your mobile games on your big tv. I initially thought from video's I watched that there was going to be too much lag to play anything graphic intensive like modern combat 3 but I was wrong. It plays superbly. Like most people though playing a fps with a touch screen is too challenging so I play it with my dualshock 3 and I suddenly feel I am playing a game on a console. This is really what most people will get this dongle for. With more graphic rich games coming in the future this dongle will be really quick and convenient like a console to connect and play games on your big screen tv and not just Samsung tv's.
Verdict:
I think this is a wonderful addition to the S3. A must have if you want to browse the web, watch YouTube or play games on your big screen tv. It's worth the money I paid for it because it opens up a lot more options to enjoy your S3 to the fullest. I just wish it came out a lot sooner.

1080p playback with an mkv with high bitrate runs smooth on it ?
Playing games with it, have video delay ?...
Further testing
I have tried a 720p mkv and it plays smooth. What the S3 can play will be streamed to your tv via the dongle. I will try a 1080p mkv later and report.
As for games, I have tried Modern combat 3, Gangstar rio, Shadowgun and Asphalt 7. All play without delay except Asphalt 7 as the graphics are moving so fast it can't keep up and the controls are very tricky. Asphalt 7 is currently free on samsung app store. It has a special dual screen mode which shows a map on the S3 while you play the game on your tv, but like I said its tricky to control. I will update the op on other games that play ok.
More testing.
I have played a 1080p mkv high bitrate 24fps Avatar movie which the S3 is capable of playing smoothly and it streams to the dongle and my tv very smooth. No audio sync problems I can see.
nice review, but sorry for question: if i have smart tv es6800 still i need that dongle to use allshare cast? somewhere i have read that smart tv with wifi-direct doesnt need that dongle
The biggest problem I'm having is the Audio/Video sync is fine playing videos but anything else including games or even just scrolling through the menus there's about a 1 second delay on audio where video is just a fraction of a second, and obviously there's no settings to fix this so it's pretty much ruined the whole thing for me.
Is it possible to change the audio output to the phones speakers? I have a HDMI computer monitor with no built in speakers.

I will be getting this for gaming and surfing.......
with this i dont really see the need for a Tab anymore.....i mean the only reason i used my tab was a bigger screen, my phone is faster than my tab so i would love to use it on my super 60inch tv and take advantage.
thanks for the review, i was a little spectical but i think i will just pull the trigger and get it.
Sorry for my ignorance, but will this work to"share " movies from the Play store? I can stream YouTube videos now thru the Ps3 but not my movies I bought.

All it does is "Mirror" everything you see on the S3 screen.
Meaning everything you can see on phone screen just gets transmitted to the Tv screen the same way a HDMI cable works.

I have read that Samsung's new 2012 models support Allshare Cast. It will probably require a firmware update but I'm not sure on that as I have yet to buy a new model. Check on the Samsung website or give them a call to find out.

I don't see any sound change options or any settings for allshare cast. Plugging in headphones is not allowed either. It cuts the connection when you plug headphones into S3.

I'm not getting this audio delay on the games I tried except on Asphalt 7 racing game because its bonkers fast it can't keep up. Unplug and reset to pair again. That might fix it. Another thing to try is turn on game mode on your tv, that reduces the scan rate. It helps on my tv. By the way what s/w version you on. I've got LF21.

It's still a valid question, because I know at least T-mobile TV is blocked when using the MHL adapter, and I would assume it's the same on this. Realizing that this is for the international version, and you don't have T-mobile TV, but I have also heard other apps, like HBO GO, detect the output and block it.
The part I am most surprised by is that you are telling me there is no lag? Have you tried any emulators? Mainly N64oid, and FPSE? If those run smoothly, I will be delighted!
I'm not using any paid movie service so I couldn't tell ya. If they use there own video player then they can probably block it. If you are using such a service please let us know.
I have not used those emulator apps you mention but from what I've played so far there is no mirroring lag of the S3. Asphalt 7 is now my favourite waste of time right now. It plays fast and now I have my sixaxis controller to play it with it's not a bad game. I particularly love the dual screen mode with the track displayed on the S3. The only lag or frame rate slowdown is because the game isn't optimised for the S3. Your large tv just displays 1 to 1 what the S3 shows. If the S3 is lagging it shows it on the tv screen. Anyway if the S3 can play those emulator games smoothly then it will mirror that on your tv.
I did have a slight delay when using the BLG8 stock rom. You can see this with the stopwatch app in the clock app. I then flashed the DLI4 jellybean leak and the delay has gone. As of now this is the best rom to use with this dongle.
Where i can get it ? dont find it anywhere

That's really interesting. The Jelly Bean rom has the best performance when using this device. Makes sense I supposed. Do most of the games you are playing have a dual mode, where the phone becomes some sort of controller instead of continuing to mirror the image? I am curious to see if you still had good results on a game that isn't optimized this way. Sorry to keep bothering you with essentially the same question, it's just that i would hate to drop $80-$100 on something that ended up being too laggy to use. Thanks a ton for the feedback.

Here is one place. http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-EAD-T...47386082&sr=8-1&keywords=allshare+cast+dongle
The only two with dual screen mode features are MC3 and Asphalt 7, both free on samsung app store. MC3 just displays the controls and Asphalt 7, the track. I particularly like it showing where the nitro and cash is on the track. I am looking out for more dual screen games.
Yes I was using the jellybean leak so I didn't have any lag delay from when I first tried it. Then I flashed ics blg8 and it was showing a visible delay.
Max Payne is very smooth as it is on the S3.
Has anyone that ordered thru Amazon already gotten theirs?
Try handtec.co.uk. They do international delivery. They are selling the EU version so i'm not sure it will work with an US S3. You could email to ask. It should cost about $85 if you choose Royal Mail delivered.
Have you test how this works with Bluetooth phone calls? I want to get this to integrated into my car display and act as a navigation but I don't want to loose my current in car Bluetooth. Also is there a option to turn off the phone display and only display the thru the dongle or a horizontal screen lock?
Thanks!
Bluetooth headset calling shouldn't be problem as you can turn on bluetooth while you are casting. I will try it with my headset.
As for connecting to your in-car display. You would need hdmi input on it and able to display in HD. You would also need a voltage converter to plug the power adapter into. It may not be possible without some ingenuity.
Turning the S3 screen off will also turn off on the other display.

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.

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.

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?

And does anyone actually know where to find allshare or are we all against the use of it? haha

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?

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.

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.

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..

[Q] Multiview and allshare cast?

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 when switching screens? 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?

screen mirroring and video streaming to HDTV?

I am looking to find a good device that's compatible with my 10.1 2014 edition Note, and will stream video, along with screen mirroring if possible, all to my HDTV. I have a 32" Samsung smart TV that does this flawlessly but I want to also be able to do this with my 42" Panasonic Plasma TV (It has USB ports but does not appear to have DLNA or any method of streaming video since it does not have wifi built in.) I know there's the Samsung brand Allshare device, but I've heard quite a bit of negative feedback about it. Ultimately I want something that will be reliable, and will also stream 1080p video. I saw that there are various Miracast devices, but many that I have seen do not have especially great reviews. I saw that the Roku devices can send video to an HDTV but it seems that they only do this with select Android devices, and I wasn't able to find a list of compatible devices on the Roku.com website. Lastly I was also thinking that I could possibly stream video to my Panasonic TV if I got a wifi USB stick, but I'm not sure if this would allow DLNA/video streaming. Any help with finding a device for my tablet that would allow me to stream video to my TV would be most appreciated.

I've the AllShare Cast Hub and if work well with Note 10.1.
Better than using S3 or S4. With them I've a lot of random disconnections.
Unfortunately AllShare Cast Hub stream only at 720p ancd not at 1080p. On the box I can read 1080p, but I've NEVER got this kind of connection with S3, S4 or Note 10.1.
Thanks for the reply. I'll definitely consider the Allshare box, although I may just go with a hard wired MHL2 connection since I really want to get 1080p.
Just found this IOGEAR box that isn't released till 12/20/2013, yet it looks like it may be exactly what I'm looking for! http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815290053
Guess I'll have to wait till its released to see how it performs, and if it works well with my tablet.
It's not screen mirroring, but have you checked out Google Chromecast? I don't have one, but it looks promising and may be the simplest and cheapest solution for what you're looking for.
Do you have a Samsung smart tv? I have a 6500 and my s4 and this note 10.1 2014 screen mirrors fine in 1080. It may be the TV you have? If you don't have a Samsung smart TV the the All share hub is likely what you're looking at to achieve your goal.

I tried the Chromecast and wasn't satisfied. On lifejacket there's a good article about the pros and con's http://lifehacker.com/google-chromecast-does-it-deserve-a-place-in-your-livi-945082974
I think a Roku will be a good solution for many people, but if you take time to read about all the miracast products you may find a really good and inexpensive way to do it.

I'm using this little guy: NetGear Push2TV
got mine at Amazon - can't provide the link since I'm too new here.
Works pretty well on any WiDi enabled device: tablet, phone, laptop, etc.

I got the Netgear Push2tv, had it for a few days and returned it. Even with the latest firmware it frequently disconnected. I just got that iOgear box I linked above and it works flawlessly, all in 1080p.
I have been looking for a way to connect my note to my TV. My TV is 4 years old and not smart lol. So this IOGear box just streams files? or does it mirror the tablet on the tv? I use VLC player on my note. Is the playback sluggish or fast enough to watch large files?

I have an older plasma Panasonic that is somewhat "smart" but doesn't have built in wifi. The ioGear will work with just about any tv but I definitely needs an hdmi input, and I believe a usb input. Streaming runs beautifully even when running 1080p video files that are over 2 GB. I use MX player (the free version.)

Does this support full screen sharing of just transmission of movies and pictures like all share. Could I for example share BBC iplayer or a video running inside the Firefox browser?

Screen Mirroring over WiFi-Direct
I got it working with my Note 3, I can connect my Note3 via WiFi Direct to my TV
BUT.....
Is there way to turn off my display of Note 3 ?
I use Screen Standby... takes a little bit of setup, but works well.

For screen mirroring ? (without using hdmi cable)
can you please write what you setup ?
I use my ps3 and I know Xbox works as well. Install skifta and you can move all your media files to you movie folder and it works perfect for what I use it for. Which is watching torrent movies in 1080p on my 60inch TV

I recently stopped using skifta cause of that. Just turn on near by devices under settings/connections and then go to video on your ps3 and learn in media servers
