Hello there,
I've tried on 2 tv's (Panasonic and Philips) and with one WiFi Display bought from ebay, and on all of them same problem. It connects then immediately disconnects with this error. Is something that should I do? I have a stock 4.4.4 rooted ROM.
Thank you.
Do you have an unlocked bootloader?
Sent from my D5503 using xda premium
No. I have the latest stock firmware with root and dual recovery.
i had problems with my lg tv too, but after like 5 times trying it simply worked...
there are several reasons why you cant conect to the tv, must check one by one
Trust me I've tried many many times , doesn't work. I mean it works, shows connected on the tv but after one flash of a second, bum, disconnected with that message. I've read on other devices that it might be because of the recovery or root, but I don't want to go that far with making the screen mirroring work.
did u unlock the bootloader? DRM keys if missing can do that
No. Locked bootloader. Latest stock firmware with root and dual recovery. That's it. Is yours working in screen mirroring?
Screen mirroring works on my Lg TV but it was lagging sometimes even for some 720p videos. So it's kind of working. Sadly don't know why this is happening.

Yea the same thing happening with my lg smart tv too
lag is ok but after sometimes it totally freeze and need to reconnect again
I'm really frustrated with this problem
Questions:
1.Is it hardware or software problem?
2.if it's a software problem then why sony isn't fixing this??
3.lastly is it happening only for z1c or other sony z series phones too???
The phone was bought in September from Vodafone then, a month ago bought by from the person who bought it brand new, so I'm 100% sure that it has a locked bootloader and it had never been unlocked. But just to be sure, how to check this? BTW my previous phone Xperia Z had sort of the same problem, screen mirroring wasn't working, no errors, just not connecting to the devices and that phone was bought by me brand new.
Sounds like DRM issue to me, I have a W9 and can't connect because I lost my keys, but given the glitchiness in operation it's not that much of a loss, I can still Throw to the TV though. Try THIS.

if u have a recovery installed then make a nandroid backup nd do a clean install of latest firmware via flashtool
see if miracast working or not
I have used mine with the Belkin Miracast dongle, so the software isn't completely broken.

I have not got it working with my dongle either. A cheap miracast device.
The reason is probably the missing encryption functionality on those noname devices.
My dongle works just fine with another Android tablet. But not with Sony device. Some companies are just more concerned about piracy issues. Especially if they sell some media themselves...
I would call it a partially supported protocol implementation. On both ends. And there is no information about that when you buy it. But there is a plenty of advertisement on the function as such.
My z1 c has no problem with screen mirroring with samsung smarty tv, using it for two months no problem till today, but it is impossible to play games because tv shows every thing 2-3 second late. But screen mirroring is not that good for z1c's hd resolution because in fhd tv color looks totally washed out. I love throw feature more than screen mirroring. And one more thing i prefer i media share than sony's conventional through option because i can lock while.using i media share.
One problem z1c has that when we lock screen while using media server setting connection disconnects after some time same goes with throw.

Hi, guys! !! I'm experiencing some issues concerning the screen mirroring function in my s4 mini. I manage to connect it to my LG smartv and my chromecast 2, Which is attached to my regular TV. But after a few minutes, the image in my TV gets blurry and the connection fails. I contacted Samsung and they made me perform a series of tests,all of Which amounted to nothing in the end. Then , they said I Would have to do a factory reset. First of all, I'm a little weary about this, couse if it does not work, I'll have done a lot of work for nothing. What should I do?? Is it a hardware problem? I'm counting on you guys!!

Using "caffine" to keep your device awake, might be a work around. (turn it on in the quick settings pull down menu, tap to set time, or for more control get the app of the same name on Play store)
Or try testing it with another casting app from play store that might keep the device from sleeping.
Thanks for Your reply! !! Unfortunately, I dont think thats the problem. While the Screen mirroring function is on, my s4 mini Screen is fully awake. The transmission then starts to falter. The images on my TV Screen (and my s4 screen)gets blurry and freezes. Then the connection breaks. ..but i'll install caffeine anyway. ..any Other suggestion?

oh I see. Maybe it's more like the modem/router being overloaded? Or wifi channel interference?
I dont think so. I turned off the wifi of all my other devices and the problem persisted, so its not overload. And I dont think its wifi interference either, because all my other devices can mirror the screen Just fine. All these tests Ive already performed, following sumsungs support instructions. They suggested a factory reset. Do You think That could work?

strange problem. What version of Android? Stock? Are you using inbuilt casting like in CM13? Or Have you tried another casting app? I could only get mine going with allcast app from Cyanogen (or was it Google?)
Factory reset might fix it, I have no idea, but it's a last resort for me!
Hi,
I have a problem with my Z5P Marshmallow 6.0, when i plugin IPhone headphones it doesn't recognize it! I tried with 2-3 other headphones, but nothing! Before that i flashed RomAur 4.2.1, everything was fine, and now i use Soundabout to listen to music. Is there a solution for this? I dont want to use SoundAbout, i want just to plugin and nothing else. Please help me!:crying:
this is the problem which forced me to downgrade to lollipop ! I've tried AboutSound too however it's not working automatically you have to turn it on and off every time and thats sucks and Sony also sucks when they make a huge mistake like this after updating and not only that more then 6 months maybe more there is not even a single acknowledge

Nothing to do with you installing a new rom...it's an hardware problem, the plugged headphone recognition part of the audio jack just gives up at some point out of the blue...
There is a thread about this here on xda already...
And further more here on Sony support site as well...
The only solutions are:
1 - Use soundabout to force the sound thru the jack (as it still works, only can't recognize when headphones are plugged in)
2 - Send it for repair if you can
3 - Use some wireless headphones
Mine also failed about a month ago, solution 1 and 3 work fine for me...can't use solution 2 as the Z5p was never sold here so no warranty and couldn't find a place to have it repaired...
download soundaboat apk from google play then install it after disabling smart connect then select wired headphones from list given by this app
I am shocked many people say Moto Z Play doesn't support wireless display/mirroring/miracast ?! Is it True ?! :/
And is it a good buy after HTC ONE M8 Gold (with the jbl mod, so not talking about speakers) in performance/multitasking ?!
Will highly appreciate the answers!

I got an LG 65" smart TV, a 55" Samsung smart TV and 52" Vizio Smart TV, MirrorLink to smart TV is not working with any of them. However you can use an application named AllCast from play store (it's a paid application, the free one gives you only 5 minutes of transmission time for free), with that application you will be able to mirror videos, pictures, power points, etc to the smart TV. You can't mirror the entire content from your phone to the smart TV, but that is good enough for me.

That's the crux of the near-stock and near-Nexus experience. Google disabled Miracast in the Nexus and Pixel line and Motorola followed suit.
The most frustrating thing: Android is still perfectly capable of Miracast, it has simply been disabled in the build.prop and can't be re-enabled without root (same as with the Nexus phones).
The good news: if you really, really need it, unlock your bootloader, get root and re-enable it. Change persist.debug.wfd.enable=0 to persist.debug.wfd.enable=1 or add the line if it's missing in your build.prop and Miracast should be somewhat functional again.
I'm a little lost here...I can cast to my TV (Sony XBR-65X810C). I do not have a hardware chromecast device.
can cast
I also have a SonyUHD TV XBR-49X800D and I can cast without any app or chromecast.
If you rooted your phone you can make it work:
Edit your build.prop file in /system, adding or editing this line:
persist.debug.wfd.enable=1
Reboot your phone.
Miracast will now be enabled, but you may need to turn it on in settings:
Go to Android Settings
Go to Display
Go to Cast Screen
Tap the button in the top right corner (vertical 3-dots)
Check mark Enable wireless display

wow i too have a sony 32" led which has screen mirroring and panasonic 42" led smart t.v. , i am about to get my phone in a week's time, hope it works for me without any hardware . Will try from settings first, if it will not work then will try from 3rd party miracast apps, and so on. Will update you guys soon.
Thank you so much for telling me that there is a hope and possibility that it may work. I don't want to root or unlock bootloader , as i did with htc m8 and once its battery dies and if i try to turn it on few times in 0% battery (where it shuts down after showing logo only) and then when i plug the charger and turn it on, it ends up just giving errors and errors and I am left with no option to hard reset it. And start up logo also lags now even after hard reset.
I am pretty sure companies are so smart now, that they trigger something to cause certain issues once someone roots their phone or unlocks the bootloader mainly.

I got the phone, sadly neither my Sony led which has miracast and my Panasonic smart TV is searchable on the play... Cast settings page say "no nearby devices were found".
In display settings there is the cast option but no menu to select "enable wireless display" . Now I don't know if it's already enabled or what?!
Tried many apps still nothing, I don't want to root. So I need Chromecast?? or if any paid app I can look for or any other way will be great.

Put a video up on YouTube.
The line is hashed out in the build.prop. Root and remove the # from the line to enable once the edit is complete, reboot, fully functional mirror exists again. Tried, tested, working. Hope this helps.
You sure it's safe to modify build.prop?
Hi there. I've soft-bricked my phone in the past running Marshmallow by modifying the build.prop. You sure it's safe to modify to enable miracast? Any other tricks involved to prevent bricking the device?

Hi,
I purchased a Carlinkit cpc200 tbox November 2021 (great product) and has been working perfectly.
Until this week, when it has stopped booting up. It will get to a black screen with android in the centre, it looks like it frozen but after 30 to 60 seconds turns off and try to reboot, with the same result.
When the unit is powered up there is a solid green and red light, after 15 seconds green light starts flashing,
after 30 to 60 seconds the red light disappears and 15 seconds later green light disappears. It seems as it is
Rebooting again.
I would like some help to fix problem.
Is this a firmware problem.

Problem booting up, anyone have a fix for this issue.

Hi,
I contacted the tech support and have tried to update unit multiple times with no result. As it was working perfectly, it was great but than stopped and now they (tech support) that is a low power issue, not software issue. I've also tried in 4 different vehicles and still not booting and bought new cable (same). Looking for the cable that may be the answer but having trouble finding it.
I am having the same exact issue and getting the runaround from the seller. Anyone have any advice?

Hi, I message Carlinkit support, they still think it's a low power issue, I tried different cable with no result. finally the cable that is shown is now available which should fix problem. I'll let you know if it works. ( I've already bought other cables that don't work )
I just got another AI box from them:
MMB 11 Plus 4+64 G Multimedia Box - Carpaly Ai Box With HDMI Input
MMB Multimedia Video Box 4+64 G with Android 11.0 system ,it has useful funtions : can convert factory wired carplay to a wireless connection and wireless Android auto, and video applications such as youtube, netflix can download in Google store,Screen mirroring for HDMI connector device
carplayaibox.com
I bought this thinking it would probably be buggy and eventually would return it but totally impressed. But this works great. Seems stable so far and allows for many customizations.
The Carlinkitcarplay Box is ok, It took a little time and patience to set up, but once I did, it runs well. Connects to phone immediately once I start my truck.

When you're using the android setup, is audio streaming via Bluetooth from your phone sent to the android box then the head unit or bypassed and goes straight to the head unit like factory android auto? Just wondering how much this device compromises audio quality of it's running through multiple sources.
Also, anyone tried rooting this device? Interested in running some audio mods through it like JamesDSP etc

I’m my GMC wired CarPlay always had better sound than though GMC Bluetooth. Now that the bt gets passed through the tbox it sounds better. I think the tbox has better bt version since that connection gets routed through wired connection to the truck and sounds as good as wired without tbox.
