Best way to mirror screen from a note 2 to a series 5 samsung smart tv?

I am trying to mirror the screen on the note 2 to a samsung series 5 smart tv. I want to play my psone emulator game on the big screen, I am already doing this with no problems on the phone with a bluetooth controller.
I've tried it a number of ways but none can do what I wanted, have anyone done this before got any advice?
1. Samsung allcast. Its is built into my series 5 smart tv but it seem to be only able to play music/ picture/ video content across allcast. Unless there is some settings or hack I've missed. I think its because its a old series 5 tv. the web seem to shows a lot of examples of it working on newer Samsung smart tv.
2. Mhl cable. I dont have one and so I cant try it out. I am worried the resolution may not be very good or maybe there will be some lag on say, tekken 2. Have anyone used it before got any advice.
3. Remote desktop programs. This will work fine with a pc but I cant install the required program on the smart tv to get it to work.
Thank you in advance for any help.

He dude
Search for a netgear solution.
Dont know the exact name for the device but google will help you out and you will know when you see it.
Oh yeah... allshare cast must! Work. So a modified phone will not work without an allshare cast mod ( if there is any)

Axelman
A thank you would be nice, if i helped you in any way.

For custom ROM you may need a mod since custom counter prevents allshare from working.I went back to stock+rooted+twrp recovery.For me Triangle away does the job.Allshare cast is working like a charm.However when I go to Recovery I have to reset counter afterwards - every time.

First. Thanks all for help.
I was initially trying for a inexpensive way to play ps1 games on the big screen, as the soon to be released ps vita tv prompted.
I knew you could get some sort of expensive wifi router than allows universal screen mirroring. Unfortunately they are at least £100 which sort of defeat the purpose in my case.
I am on rooted stock rom. Allcast seem to work for everything (ie photo and video) from the phone and the pc. But no screen mirroring. That is unless I am missing on some options/setting or apps.
Lastly anyone whom got a mhl cable on any advice on lags or sounds or recommendations. As a quick search on amazon will pop on hundred of mhl cable at various price £10 to £50+. It seems that upscaling the note 2 resolution to 40 inch tv might be a bit taxing for a cheap cable. I am not sure. Any tips.

The Netgear solution costs about $50,-
A MHL cable is okay, but still then ur wired and set to a distance of 2 meters max between you and your 40 inch.
Every convenience comes with a price
I got my MHL cable from china.. works great, but its not for playing games on a tv set.
If your interested in the cable,

Is Actiontec ScreenBeam Pro's miracast feature compatible with 2014 Galaxy Note 10.1?

So I noticed the older Galaxy Note 10.1 is listed as compatible with the Altec ScreenBeam Pro... I'm wondering if it also works with the newer 2014 edition. Has anybody tried? It seems to work quite well with the Nvidia Shield (Nvidia actually recommends it out of many miracast devices that they've tried. They've even worked with altec to optimize it for the Shield, so I imagine that would also benefit other compatible Android devices): http://www.actiontec.com/products/63.php

Awesome, thanks for the feedback... was beginning to think this was going to go unanswered. Guess it may be time to look into getting a miracast adapter! Thanks again.

I am also rooted and MiraCast still works. It is a bit more slugish than my Nexus 7.2. Probably because of scaling down since the Nexus is the resolution as the TV. My Nexus 10 was a bit slower as well.

I have the PTV3000 dongle and the note seems to disconnect immediately after connecting to the dongle with this message "unable to start screen mirroring because of a hardware issue".
quick lookups on google seems to indicate it's related to the status being unofficial. I am wondering if you had any similar problems and if I'd appreciate if you can share your workaround if you have any.
Thanks

Nope, you just need to plug the adapter into an available HDMI port on your tv

oh cool, thank you. Was just a bit confused on that.

I've had some luck with the ptv3000 on the 2.4.26 update. YouTube videos and games almost work, but my connection just seems barely too slow to be usable. Pictures and anything else seem to work okay for me. Would the screen beam pro work any better for gaming since I'd seems to be endorsed by nvidia?

Are You using the built in screescreen Mirror app
Are you using the screen mirror in the settings or a third party app

I'm using the one in settings. Would any third party app be better?

Yes i did get "a2w measy" but i wasn't happy with the quality of the picture and lags so i have send it back for a refund.
Picture looked like it was "bad quality movie" even thou it was 1080p. It is brilliant idea but need some more work on it.

I've used it on official MK9 4.3 rom to LG smart tv, picture quality was very good but it had around a 1 second lag which made it awful to use.

Actually after a LOT of reading and browsing.... I realized, that miracast is not working as it was the idea on the paper! It is just not ready for prime time...pretty similiar to Bluetooth in the beginings.
A lot of devices are not compatible with a lot of dongles. There is a lot of chinese cheap 20-30usd devices on the market, that according to sellers should support miracast, but that is more often then not not the case at all. And when someone succeeds to connect the dongle with the phone, it does not work very good at all for video casting...audio is often out of sync and video stutters and is choppy...and that is when it works at all.
So my advice to everybody is to get a TV stick/box with Android, for 50$....it will be much easy to setup for casting..and a lot more powerfull, espacially because it could do a lot of extra stuff...

Yes I was thinking of buying it too but for me it would be so much easier to use my phone to navigate to where I want with miracast. I have tried to connect my phone to tv and use my tablet to navigate with all sorts of "remotes" from play store and it just wasn't comfortable enough to buy an android dongle.I guess i just need to wait until they will perfect miracast technology I don't mind small lags but picture quality with the compression it use is not good enough on 55 inch tv

Screen mirroring to projector via wifi hotspot and dongle?

Hey all here's what I'm going for...
Walk into conference room, start wifi hotspot on my phone and plug some type of dongle (chromecast/AllCast, etc..) into the back of the projector. Then I would connect my Note 10.1 2014 to the dongle and be able to mirror my screen to give presentations.
Has anyone tried this? Any creative solutions?

Miracast devices can do exactly this with wifi direct, so the hot spot isn't actually necessary to screen share. The only downside is that they are HDMI output, so projector compatibility is limited when dealing with older units.

Ah thank you! I looked into miracast and that is exactly what I was looking for. So the Note 2014 is miracast compatible?
Also, do you know of any cheap stick-like miracast dongles? I found this http://lettouch.com/rockchip-miracast-dlna-hdmi-dongle-for-android-ios-device-p-988.html.
Edit: do they all require an external power source like http://www.focalprice.com/EH0360B/Hi763_Miracast_WiFi_Display_Dongle_Black.html?Source=EN_BFDproduct this?

You can also use MirrorOp. MirrorOp
I am using it at school for presentations. The sender software is on my Note 10.1 and the FREE receiver is on the PC which is connected to the OHP. The sender is only $10 and you can get it on the Play Store. Works over WiFi.
Note: Get the Galaxy version NOT the general android version as I have tried both and the Galaxy version works much better.

Which "china" Miracasr dongle?

Since IOGEAR GWAVR is no where to find in EU and in Ebay cost to much. (shipp+tax). So Im gonna buy a cheap china miracast dongle instead. But which of so many miracast dongle does works with Note 2014?
Considering these cheaps one: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=miracast&_sop=15
But if any know where in EU does it sale IOGEAR GWAVR, that doesnt cost a fortune and I will buy it instead.

I am using Google Chrome cast. While i don't get the entire tablet on the screen I can watch any videos, pictures etc on my TV and it was 35 bucks at best buy. The video is pretty much all I cared about and it saved me some money doing it this way.

i search Taobao. Com ,there are a lot of options. The price is about 160 rmb (20-30 US dollars)

I'm using the action tech screen beam pro right now and its great. Watching one piece via S anime while writing this.

Too expensive, cost over 100US to buy it and that is too much.
I just want stream live streams to TV and screen mirroring. Buy from ebay, takes around 1-2 months (if lucky an be faster) and dont want to wait if buy a none working with Note 2014.

Nice thread! I would like to learn a little more of this!
Please can someone share the experience ?
EZCast/ EZMirror ? iPush ? Some say can do miracast and airplay!
Can we have a dongle :
- HDMI and AV connection ?
- Mirror what's on our Android screen
- Mirror what's on iPhone screen
- Mirror PC/MAC
Thanks

Hi all,
My colleagues and I use this :
www.tinydeal.com/fr/hi763-miracast-dlna-airplay-wifi-display-dongle-for-smartphone-p-111836.html
It is compatible with Miracast, DLNA and AirPlay. I can mirror my android devices and computers screen (Wifi Display) and stream airplay on the TV.
Also, there are some little issue with some of custom roms. But with my SM-P600 (MK1) it works flawlessly.

I read that some requires iPush to be downloaded from Play others EZCast/EZAir, is it the case for this dongle?
I've seen some youtube reviews and it seems that visualizing video the audio is a little lag from the image, is it common from this cheap dongles?
Anyone knows if there is any dongle with RCA analogue output instead of using an expensive HDMI-RCA converter ?

Sorry, I don't really understand "some requires iPush to be downloaded from Play others EZCast/EZAir, is it the case for this dongle?". But I'm using the Note 10.1 2014 with the native mirroring service included. And on my computer I'm using the native wireless display of windows 8 (I have an Intel proc with an Nvidia video card). Some of my colleagues use iTunes for streaming on the dongle.
I've forgot to mention one thing. The dongle does not allow to receive all airplay, miracast, dlna on the same time. There is a little switch on the dongle for choosing the dlna or airplay mode.

My recommendation is to avoid all cheap chinese miracast dongles. Got mine from Ebay and it works like crap.
- Wifi streaming hangs all the time.
- Resolution works fine from beginning and suddenly it changed to a weird aspect ratio size and all is zoomed in on TV.
That dongle is collecting dust now.

UAU
I've decided to give a try and i'm just impressed! It was the cheapest i've found on ebay:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/371043321886?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
Not only came well packed on an impressive case as it does exactly what it says!
Tried our Note 2014 (605), iphone 5S and a toshiba laptop.
I advise you to just look at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrzaLjA1EiiBiYR4VKCoZpA
It works just like on the videos.

@ jpl69
Does it work for movies and gaming? How the range?

For gaming, just forget. At least half second gap, to much for gaming.
I have everything in my room, router tv/dongle pc, android, iphone so the range is about 3m.
For movies, youtube is awsome.

Do you need to use the EZcast app or you simply use the built-in screen mirroring function of the Note 2014?

You must use the EZCast , but just to trigger the mirror function on the device.
