I use my Galaxy S2 as my wifi hotspot and connect my pc and Note 10.1 to it with no problems. I have the HDTV adapter to connect my tab to the tv but controlling it with the bluetooth keyboard is a bit limited. If I buy the Allshare Cast adapter to plug into my TV, will I be able to be connected to my phone(for my internet) AND connected to the dongle /adapter (to mirror to the tv) simultaneously?
Thanks
I don't know why it wouldn't, but I can't verify for you. I can verify that doing the same thing with an HDMI adapter works fine however. AFAIK, the hotspot from your phone looks like any old wifi to your tablet.

Most definitely yes- I did the same thing (watching my Slingbox via ASC while the Note was connected to WiFi) a few months back.
What Buji said about WiFi is true, that "WiFi is WiFi"- unless your phone is using "AdHoc" mode to do the tethering; since ASC also uses AdHoc mode to talk to the ASCD, I can't say for sure about that configuration.

I wonder, is it possible to connect the Note to a TV set without NHL or other wired setups? Is there any kind of dongle one can connect to the TV to receive audio/video by Bluetooth or wifi?

U can, if the TV do have DLNA and just connect it wireless.

Do you want to stream content from the phone or see the phone screen on the TV?
DLNA would cover the 1st option - the built-in Allshare app turns the phone into a DLNA compliant server.
For the 2nd option, you could either use and MHL cable with a wireless HDMI setup or use something Android VNC Server from a PC attached to the TV.
I use imediashare from the market to stream to my apple tv2... works great. Works with an Xbox and lots of other things too.

Allshare works fine. I have connected my PC, LED and phone. Cool thing to show off as well.
Thanks, the latter.I might use one of my Nokia internet tablets to setup vnc and hook it to my TV. Won't be quick enough for gaming and streaming, though.
The wireless hdmi setup requires too many things attached to the Note to be comfortable.

The Allshare works great, running with a Samsung UNC55D8000. Images video crisp clear and very fast sync.
Is there any wireless Mirroring on the horizon?

Allshare works fine between TV and phone, but the PC client has difficulties with shared folders. It keeps delisting my media folders, and now even unable to add any folders at all.
Try Qloud Media Free in the market

Awesome! How cool is that? Am playing movies straight from my phone via the PS3 to the big screen with no cables. Magic.
Much appreciated. I shall now have to tour friends' houses to show off!
Plasma TV without DLNA
Hi guys,
I have a LG Plasma TV without DLNA but with USB ports and HDMI ports.
I know I can connect my Note with the MHL cable but would like to explore the wireless options.
1) If I try to plug a wifi usb stick to the Plasma TV, will it work ?
2) If not, what are the other available options ?
thanks
allshare works awesome on my samsung tv

OK, but will it work if I plug in a wireless usb dongle on the LG Plasma TV (which does not have the DNLA) ?
Please can someone confirm which app you guys are talking about to stream to the ps3 for movies download from my phone.
Thanks guys

Unlikely, the USB port on your TV is likely only for connecting a USB memory stick or hard-drive to display photos and possibly videos. If your TV's firmware had support for a wireless USB dongle it would also likely be DLNA compliant.
Hi thanks. I have heard about HDMI (one side) to wireless (the other side) connection for example for HTC (HTC Media Link). Do we have similar things for Samsung Galaxy Note?

Well, there's the HTC Media Link for starters!
However, this only offers DLNA streaming, not full display mirroring.
The HTC Media Link HD does offer display mirroring, but only when partnered with an HTC One X or S.

OK,
So what are the available options for me (owner of the galaxy note and a HDTV without DLNA but with HDMI).
Is it only the MHL cable then ? Any other options to mirror or wirelessly stream ?
I saw an adapter for the Galaxy III which connects to the phone through wifi direct and to the TV set through hdmi cable. It's exactly what I wanted.
Hope out works for the Note, too, when it's available.

If your TV doesn't have dnla, Then get a dnla ready home theater / blue ray player
Those are your only two choices for wireless streaming from your Note to your TV. And it works really well.

I don't know if anyone can help me but I figured I could ask. I have a LG BluRay DVD Home theater System that has DLNA ability that is hooked to my HD tv that is not. My home theater reciever is not currently hooked up to my wireless network but I see that the receiver does have a ethernet port in the back. I am mainly trying to connect my galaxy s3 to my tv to stream video etc. Does anyone know if I direct connect the DLNA capable home theater receiver to my wireless router, which will connect it to my wireless network, will I then be able to send info from my galaxy s3 to my theater system which will show up on my TV? Sorry for the noob question but i got to start somewhere.....Any information will help based on my situation of not having a DLNA capable TV lol
Unless i am wrong i dont think you can stream video from your device to the tv. IT has to be content loaded on y our device. Like a movie, song or picture.
Hulu and Netflix and anything you can watch on your device via streaming method will only display on your screen or if you have an MHL adapter.
By using the DLNA app it acts as a media server so you can use your tv/bluray device to brows certain media types on your phone and play them on your tv.
My PS3 is hooked up to my router via the RJ45 jack, and my phone is on the same network via WiFi. They will see each other.
As long as its the same network and the devices are DLNA compatible you should be able to get content off your phone and onto the TV.
Hi all.
I don't know why this seems to be such a difficult thing to do but I can't seem to get a straight answer.
I have a Galaxy Note 2, my wife has a Sensation XE and we both will soon have Nexus 7 and/or Nexus 10 - possibly. What I want to achieve is a way to send video content including things like netflix from our devices to our TV wirelessly.
I don't want to have seperate receivers etc for each device but I am happy for a software solution if a hardware one is not available.
Thanks
im not sure about netflix and stuff because i don't use it, but when you have any videos theres a button on the top with like a small tv and 3 lines or so all together like a little symbol, your tv provided its a samsung, should be connected on the same wifi as your phone and all you have to do is clack that button and it should work.
As for youtube which is what i sometimes use, i just pair it with the TV and it connects straight away.. really simple
This looks similar to what your after .

I've tried that with an app called 'Skifta' to a laptop running xbmc (for testing purposes) but it only supports local content and a select few stations/channels of which netflix isn't one. My TV is a 6 year old Bush LCD IDTV so no DLNA

if your samsung tv is new it would be dlna or smart tv so you wont need that allshare cast

Sorry, what I meant was, does allshare cast work with non-samsung phones/tablets (see OP).
I don't have a samsung TV nor can I afford one.
Well, it's a hardware solution, and right now is a lil bit on the pricey side. Gigabyte skyvision ws100.
The advantage, you can use it with whatever devices with hdmi i/o capability. It seems it pretty much works flawlessly and without lag, if I had came across it couple of months before I might have bought one instead a 30m+ HDMI cable than runs from my PC to the TV in the living room. If I had, now I could easily switch between PC (gaming), laptop (movie watching), and now phones (occasional viewing of photos and stuff). And, I could use it to stream av to the projector in our bedroom.... might still consider this Christmas.
Best regards.
The device is called Allshare cast dongle. It works with any TV with HDMI port. Plugs in to the hdmi port and you connects your to galaxy device over "wifi direct" (you dont need a wifi network for this to work). Its not sold in North America (thanks to apple) but is widely available on amazon and ebay for under $100.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

I shall investigate. The problem with cables however is that the devices have different HDMI outputs (if at all) hence wanting wireless solution.

Sorry, didn't find it in the settings.Dont konw how to do it. But if you want to transmit your phone's screen to a TV, offline, you may use an otg line. Out put your phone screen to TV. Is that a good idea?
Or with an otg line, the fire stick can read an usb disk, you can put some movies in it.

Otg line with my smartphone don't work.
the miracast function works on the amazon device, it is written on the amazon website. I don't know if this function works offline on firestick or maybe the amazon device needs to be connected to the internet.
miracast devices work via the device's and smartphone's direct wifi connection and do not need to be connected to the internet.
You can mirror your display on compatible phones or tablets that support Miracast.
Compatible devices can include:
Android devices running Android OS 4.2 (Jelly Bean) or higher
Fire tablets (3rd Generation or higher)
Fire phone
Note: iOS and MacOS devices aren't supported.
The following Amazon Fire TV devices don't support Display Mirroring:
Amazon Fire TV (3rd Generation)
Fire TV Cube
Fire TV Edition televisions
Important: Turn on your Fire TV device and compatible device. Check that both devices are within 30 ft (10 m) of each other and connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
To start display mirroring, press and hold the Home Home Button button on your Fire TV remote, and select the Mirroring option. Then connect your compatible device. Press any button on your remote to stop display mirroring.

Yeah, Found that. But maybe my phone doesn't support miracast. I think this is something like airdrop on macos. No need to connect the internet, but need an wifi, even it is offline from the internet. But at least, i think miracast need an wifi, we don't know if the miracast can work when the wifi is offline for the internet.
To confirm that, you may use phone 1 to open a hot spot, and switch the data off. So you get a wifi, and it is offline from internet. Connect phone 2 and fire stick by the hot spot, then try the miracast.

Yes miracast works offline, I use this function with my laptop with windows 10 thanks to the connect app.
Just activate the wifi of the smartphone and the wifi of the device that must receive the information and the transmission starts without having to be online or active hot-spot.
My only doubt is that maybe on the fire stick for some strange reason it is necessary to be online
but if you say that the function is active even offline then it should go.

Since I've updated my Note 20 Ultra to One UI 3.0 I have somewhat been able to connect to Samsung Dex wirelessly to my laptop (Dell Latitude E7450), however once it's connected, Dex desktop loads but I can't use the mouse (connected to laptop) or trackpad from the laptop.
Any ideas?
Yes had the same issue myself, I use a Wireless Keyboard and Mouse, when Dex connects wirelessly the Mouse and Keyboard will not work inside of Dex.
This has been an issue for some time. No resolution other than plugging your Wireless reciver into the Phone

I see this is old, but wanted to respond. It's super easy, you just have to realize the phone(DEX) becomes the computer, so any keyboard or wireless mouse needs to connect to the phone now. I use LOGI MX Keys keyboard that connects to phone, and a bluetooth mouse to phone, and both work great to run DEX.

Actually since the last firmware update that I had gotten on my Note 20 Ultra, my laptops keyboard and connected mouse are working fine with Samsung Dex wirelessly.
