Share Video to Samsung TV (Which ROMs?) - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

One of my favorite features of this phone is I can press a little box on the top of the video player when a video is playing and share it with my Samsung TV. I've been using Wicked V7 ROM for a while and it works on there too. But I've been wanting to try the 4.4 Kitkat ROMs lately, and wondered if this video sharing works on them. Or is this only a Touchwiz feature?

You can download a media share app off the Playstore that will link to your tv via dlna. Samsung allshare is what you ate using now which is built in to stock roms and an option for all touch wiz roms. But on cm barsed roms you need to download a media server, then turn it on and have your tv search for media servers, than you can play any file on your phone, but I don't believe it will screen mirror.

Great. Hopefully I can get one of those working. It's the only thing that's got me stuck to touchwiz roms now.

Me too and wifi calling, which are t mobile based twiz, I dual boot to run aosp based roms when I'm not at home or work

Allshare Free GS3

Having trouble connecting my phone to anything through allshare... I am running freegs3 version 3.0 stock rom. Just need to know if there is a fix to get the allshare app working on here or not.
Make sure its checked during installation is the best choice
In front of a live studio audiencr
Just moved to another ROM and it works great... And I got the all share play app from online and it said unable to download on the free gs3 rom...

well i havent tried between devices but all i want to do is screen mirror to my tv using the allshare cast dongle
It's not going to work. Been trying for over a year. It's a lost cause.
Sucks.
My Screen Sharing works fine on STOCK Rooted, that's it.
I was using the Wicked ROM for the longest time, played with a few others. Could never get it to work.
I just recently ODIN Flashed and Relocked back to stock. Just used the CF-Auto-root method to root again. No custom kernel, no ROM. Just stock rooted and it works! Which sucks!
And this is all just to use my stupid AllShare Dongle

I forgot to add after rooting I did run Triangle Away to reset my flash counter to 0 and the binary to Official.
I did try the method above and it does work while being rooted but since its stock kernel I can't use wifi tethering which I need to have working.

But how do you register the AllShare Cast Dongle w/ your Samsung Link account?
I just turn on samsung link and I click the movie or file I want top play and there should b an all share icon on the too left corner. Once you tap that it should show the devices you wanna play it on. Like I have a 32 inch samsung smart tv. So thatll pop up for me. The file will play right to the tv. You can even do this directly with the video or music player. Just that the allshare icon on the app.

Yes for those options it's fine, but it's not true screen sharing. Like being able to use a MOGA controller and fire up your SNES emulator and share the screen on the TV.
While i'm able to do that now on the Stock ROM and Stock Kernel once I change away I lose that capability and that's what is wanting to be maintained. True honest screen sharing, not app/file sharing/streaming.

Their has to be a work around so we can get wifi tethering to work Also while on stock. Like root66 from the gs3 forum

Bell tv app problem

I am running CM 10.2. When I open the Bell tv app, I am able to get video and audio when watching CTV news for example. But when I select a show, Anger Management ,for example, I get sound only. I edited the build.prop , was wondering if someone here might have a little more insight. I like version 4.3 much more than 4.1.2. , however it is very puzzling why only a portion of the app is working.

Good video player for cm/aokp

Since I usually run twiz I haven't found a video player that works as well on cm base as the stock video player on twiz especially while using an mhl adapter. Cm video player from gallery won't play a lot of movies and downloaded ones from play store are either pixelated and choppy or just totally off. Any recommendations. I love the new rom by mr impossible but since I took cable out my room and I got a mhl cord I watch a lot of movies through my phone so this is a must

Try MX Player. So far it can handle any type of video I throw at it

[Q] Samsung Smartview 2.0 app

I'm trying to use the screen mirroring feature (TV screen sent to phone) in the Samsung Smartview 2.0 app with my Note 2 and 2014 Samsung Smart TV. It fails to connect. The rest of the features of the app like remote control work fine. The Smartview app has awful reviews and I see a lot of complaints about this. Has anyone got this feature working? If so what ROM and kernel are you running?
Don't use that app but our Rom Dn3 5.2 connects to any Samsung smart tv no problem... AFAIK any stock TW Rom should work streaming to a smart tv.. It's under nearby devices in setting..

I'm using Dn3 with Angi kernel currently and it won't connect to the TV using screen mirroring under settings. I'm going to try the stock ROM to see if the feature in Smartview works with it. My Note 10 connects to the television just fine.
