Beaming to a Samsung S3 not working

Has anybody successfully been able to beam between the N7 and a Samsung S3?
Everyone I try it must opens the play store and nothing happens.
Any ideas?

I don't think it works. I tried it with a S4 and a N7 and it hasn't worked. I don't think Sammy's sbeam is compatible with the N7 nfc transfer... Two Google devices yeah, but a Sammy and a Google device? Doesn't work for me...

I have a nexus and an S3 and it works fine. I tried replicating the issue and it worked fine for me. First question is, are you on a custom ROM? Not sure if that has anything to do with it, but just putting that out there.
Second, my nfc settings on S3 are with android beam on, so beam off.
Also make sure that you are placing the nfc sensors together, as it can be difficult to find on the nexus.
Lastly, I love using an app called SuperBeam, which allows me to share files between my two devices. It's like S beam for galaxy phones, except for all nfc android phones.
Best of luck!

My s3 also s4 when trying to beam to my N7 are both directed to the play store. When I run an aosp romn the s4 it works fine with the n7 and android beam. I think touchwiz messes it up.

Disable S-Beam and enable Android Beam and it will work with the Nexus 7 or any NFC enabled android device.

it will work only by opening the bluetooth not the wifi for the transfer...so for large files it's not so fast transfer. ..

Sprint Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 and Screen Mirroring

Has anyone found a work around to get screen mirroring on the Tab 3 7.0? I have the Sprint version which sports the 1.7Ghz processor, which is faster than the 8.0 and Wifi-direct. Don't understand why they left screen mirror out. I do have multi-window, which I was told by a Samsung trainer isn't on the 7.0 Wifi version. Any info would be appreciated! Thanks!

I second this request! Anybody have any luck with this?

Same thing here. I just tried the MHL to HDMI cable with no luck at all. Today I'll try a Miracast dongle to see if anything happens. It's hard to think why this feature is not included in the device; although I reckon it should be included in the next android update.

this is actually really frustrating. I popped it on the dock to stream some netflix and then was forced to use my phone which kinda killed me using my phone the whole time. Was a bit peeved. I'm stuck with this for two years, and I can't even use it to stream. What's the point of paying for this tablet if I have to resort to using my phone?

i´ve just bougth one ezcast dongle which looks like a clone of google chromecast, will see how it works, but the lack of screen mirroring in stock android 4.1.2 or better said, the effort of Samsung updating this tablet is a real shame.
lets hope in a time will be some cyanogenmod rom with kitkat running with all of the features it has.

The tablet is slated for Kitkat. It's just a question of when...

Nope. My tab 7 collects dust now. Waste of $50 and a data line. I use my phone and the dock.

Play Movies Freezimg

Hi. Maybe someone has had the same experience and can help me. Recently I tried watching one of my purchased Play Store movies. I can not get it or any others to play. Either they do not play at all, I get an error with random numbers, or they play for 9 seconds then freeze. When they freeze at 9 seconds, the sound start making scratchy notices then it will loop back to 0 seconds and start over.
This is just on my Galaxy S3. Works fine on my Nexus 7. Also if I use my Galaxy S3 to stream to my ChromeCast it works fine.
I have looked online and xda for info and have found a few others cases, but no fixes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Play Movies. Cleared cache and data from Play Movies and others system apps. Remove/disabled any mods. Hid root. I'm currently on Wicked Sensations MK3, but it used to work on it. But just to check I have also flashed other ROMs including a Stock Rooted MK3. Thanks in advance if anyone has any ideas. Maybe I will go back to a MD4 ROM and see if it helps.

LG G3 Chromecast

Hi All,
Not sure if anybody else is having this issue but whenever I try to play something on my chromecast with my G3 I get a systemui crash.
Never had this issue on my nexus 5 or my Z1 compact.
Anybody else experience this issue?
Thanks

Continous error msg same as attached and you can not use the mobile.

Does it still cast?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Yes it does.
The error msg came once i pull the notification panel.
I restarted the mobile and the vedio still working at the chromcast.

I'm so glad someone brought this up...I thought it was only me at first. Was ready to flash it thinking it would fix it.
Anyone able to figure out how to fix it or should we just avoid casting anything on our G3 until theres a fix?

Well I get my phone Thursday so can take a look then if no one solves it before then.

Hi,
Try uninstalling the latest YouTube update on your phone. This worked for me.
Hope this helps.

Didn't work.

ME TOO! That sucks! I thought it was just me. What are supposed to do - stop using a Google product on Google's OS?

Shame this didn't work for you.
My YouTube app that does seem ok is version: 5.3.28
Not sure if it's possible to downgrade to this version though!

Wait until they update the app its probably a incompatibility with the qhd screen....report it to them via app store and they should fix it in a couple days

Unfortunately it is not just a youtube related problem. If you have the chrome beta app you can stream and mp4 videos from the browser directly to the chromecast and it crashed then also.
Also BubbleUPNP crashes when streaming to the chromecast.
A similar bug was found in some early samsung devices which samsung fixed with a software update so I believe this is for LG to fix and not Google.

This is happening to me on my lg gpad that i just got an update for a couple days ago! Anyone have a solution, please post it. Tia

Can you guys recommend something like apple tv- just two clicks and I've got my phone on my TV or audio on amplifier. Something simple and compatible with whole OS not just with two apps ie youtube or gallery...

http://www.engadget.com/2014/06/25/chromecast-screen-mirroring/

Me neither. LG needs to check this out It's crazy. I'm tired of the battery pulls.

Is there anyone who are having these issues with Chromecast that are NOT rooted? Can someone confirm?
I'm not saying being rooted is the cause. That's stupid talk. I want to see if this is a feature LG breaks for rooted devices, or if this is simply a nasty bug. Some manufacturers do things like that, not that LG has a history of doing this (to my knowledge).

It's a bug in the LG software, nothing to do with root

Systemui crash mirrorcast

My tab s is crashing when I am mirror casting from youtube. this happens after I connect to tv and press the volume rocker. Is my unit defective?
BTW it's stock.
Sent from my SM-T800 using Tapatalk

I just check mine does it also, it must be an app problem.

Mine crashes when doing Google Play Movies and Chromecast. The Tab Pro also did this. My advice is contact samsung so they know about the issue and can fix it.

Contacted Samsung, they are totally oblivious to this issue.

It's been mentioned on the Note 2014, since the KK upgrade as a problem too.
Apparently as a workaround make sure no items or apps are in the Notification pulldown, so disable all app notifications so it's clean and stock and it shouldn't crash while casting.

This is an old thread, but I there is an Xpose mod that fixed this for me on my Tab S 8.4" (MF9 firmware), so I though I would share:
