[Q] Can I play songs on Mobile from Laptop through Bluetooth? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I have a question which I looked everywhere but didn't get any answers, so I registered to ask the same.
I have Laptop with Win 7 and Mobile Note 2. I have connected them through Bluetooth and I can play on mobiles and listen songs on Laptop. Now, I want to do vice versa, so it means that I want to play songs or videos on laptop and want sound to be played from Mobile. Please let me know if this is possible and there is a way of doing the same.
Regards,
Gaurav

Think you're just wanting Samsung Link... http://help.content.samsung.com/csw...nk-b05&serviceCd=allshareplay&r_faq_id=120201

I dont know about Bluetooth but Samsung Link Application installed on the Note II will do just that through the WIFI simply by rgistering your PC at Link.Samsung.com and downloading another application on your PC.

DLNA for Nokia WP7 (Beta)

Hi Guys,
Just to let you know in case some of you haven't realized it Nokia is Testing a DLNA App called 'PLAY TO' for Nokia WP7 Devices.
Its still in Beta testing and there are mixed reviews where some have got it to work straight away while others have had minor glitches.
Unfortunately for me it doesn't seem to locate any device at all. ..( PC , SONY Bravia TV or my SGS2)
I have an SGS2 which connects to my PC and TV via its 'ALL SHARE' so I guess its the PLAY TO app
I have a sim free Nokia Lumia 900 UK version
Would Appreciate if you would let me know if the app works for you guys and please post your
Lumia Model (UK or USA etc)
TV Model
PC modem etc
Thank You

Thanks man. I hadn't seen this in the Beta Labs (mustve missed it). But, surely wanted to be able to use DLNA capabilities as it's the only thing I missed since moving from my Titan.

Works perfect with my Xbox... must be in Media Center. I have not tried with my Grace internet Radio, but it does show up. Have not tried with my Roku, but that might be interesting.
(Update) Forgot: Play to is only pics and video... no music... so it sees Grace but no play to: No Roku
Works fine direct to my sony blu-ray disk player (BDP-BX58). More polished than the HTC Media Connect I used before on my HD7...

It probably plays mp3 from your device. I haven't tried.
It plays podcasts and pictures to my Samsung TV over wifi. It also streams to xbox no problem.

It's glitchy for me. Pictures work fine but streaming video is an issue. I turned of the tv and rebooted the phone. After that it connected and played. The real annoyance is it has disconnected multiple times while I was watching a video.
DLNA is pretty cool but you are going to look like a total douche if it keeps disconnecting every 10 minutes. Glad this thing is in BETA. Hopefully they will get the kinks worked out.

You can't use it in the same way. It's a DLNA device so you can use it via a media player to playback specific files but you won't be able to do screen mirroring to project the phone itself on to another display. Even if there were a specific APK it wouldn't work without HTC's framework installed. And AllShare's for receving content, not projecting it. AllShare Cast can project media and Samsung has a hub you can buy to use it but it sounds like it plays files and doesn't mirror the phone.

Thanks guys I guess I will stick with my HOX and enjoy the ride.
You can use the HTC Media Link HD with any Android device using the Wi-Fi Media App in the Playstore, link is here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bianor.amscavium&hl=en
It won´t let you mirror things but it does let you playback content, you don´t need the HTC Framework (don´t listen to Barry)
Enjoy.

Hello, I bought the HTC Media Link HD and tried to use it with my Galaxy Nexus phone (Android 4.1.1) , but it do not recognize the HTC Media Link HD.
I have tested also with Galaxy S & S II (Android 4.0.3) , Galaxy Tab (Android 3). I tried apps from Google Play like: Skifta, Homedia, Wi-Fi Media, iMedia, Media Link.
No one succeeded to connect to HTC Media Link HD.:crying:
When I found somebody with HTC One S phone, it recognized the HTC Media Link HD just like expected with 3 fingers up slide and worked just fine.
How it is supposed to be setup to be recognizable by other Android devices?
Thanks in advance.

Yes,
The connection need to be not direct like in case of HTC phones, but via the router (wi-fi).
1. Connect to the Media Link device with browser using the its own Wi-Fi and IP written on the TV display.
2. Go to settings and setup you home Wi-Fi access like int other computers, phones,tablets. Device will change its own IP address to one used in home network.
3. Connect Android Phone to home Wi-Fi network and use Skifta. Now it is recognized.
Best regards.

Do not forget the password. I saw in documentation with mine it is by default 1234567890 but that never worked for me. I had to search quite a bit to find you have to add HTC at the end, in caps to make the password work. If you get asked for a password on an HTC One, like the m7 the password line that comes up will have a number dialer entry pad and will not accept alpha characters. You do not have to have a password with an eligible HTC phone, just has to be configured with the media link to work. To connect with a laptop though......... 1234567890HTC will do it. At least with mine.

Where can I find Skifta is it a play store app? I searched but couldn't find it there....
Does anyone know of a current app that will connect to the HTC media link? I now have the Samsung S7 and have not been able to link to the media link to display any content on to Mr TV.....

Another reason to love the LGOG

How many people have used the Smart Share feature?? I did the other day to stream a movie to my tv.
I will say that it was freaking AWESOME! Now I have streamed using my computer, DTV Box, my tv, Blu ray,
Xbox, and even my Ps3. None seemed to be as easy and flawlessly as running it from my LGOG. I even did
it a few times with MHL and my Evo lte. I can play, pause, ff using my tv remote, hell I believe I multitasked
on the phone while the tv was still playing the movie without one hiccup.
This phone is Awesome!!!
I want to try that but my tv doesn't use DLNA glad it's so smooth though!

Both your PC and Phone must be connected to a WiFi server in order to use the "Throw" feature ( streaming music, videos, pictures over WiFi)

[Q] How to connect my phone (Sony Xperia ZL) to my Laptop (Lenovo) via wireless?

Dear all,
I have a Lenovo Ideapad Y750 with windows 7. I tried to send music from my Sony Xperia ZL using the Throw feature. But the phone says "could not connect to the device". Both Laptop and smartphone are on the same wireless network. I followed the instruction here http://tech2.in.com/how-to/lifestyle/how-to-set-up-dlna-on-your-devices/294842/1#story and after pressing the Start button and then typing Media streaming options my phone is not on the list of devices.Any clue which is the problem here?

Thanks for the suggestions. I ll try them out. But do you guys have any idea of what is wrong with the "throw"feature? That is by far more convenient, I just click throw on my phone and I can instantaneously see videos, listen music or see pictures on my pc. No need to install app on the phone (moreover you have to install something on the laptop). Moreover you can also throw to a wifi TV. It is written on the Sony website that the laptop has to be DLNA compliant. How can I check that on my laptop? It is a pretty recent laptop with windows 7, I thought it should be DLNA.
Laptops are pretty hard to setup for DLNA actually throw feature is used for. DLNA certified products like music system, bluray players...etc etc..so fr laptop better use some app they work juat fine
