Hey folks,
as miracast and all the other solutions i have tried so far don't work (or give random problems / don't allow proper mirroring) I wanted to ask if somebody here knows away to achieve mirroring from an android device?!
I tried youmap cast receiver which worked for about 2 weeks but then was removed from the marked and the manually installed app doesn't work any longer, now idea why but thats how it is with my device...
I have a rooted 1st generation fireTV, so is there any way of getting this mirroring stuff working?
thanks is advance

Hi, I owned a tab pro 10.1, not rooted, screen mirroring (with my Samsung TV) works fine until I connect to vpn. Does anyone know why it happens and how to resolve this? I need the vpn to connect to netflix. Appreciate any help in advance. Thanks!
Same here!

I have got this problem too. I have a Samsung notes 3, stock rom and would love to use vpn and screen mirroring for the exact same reason. As a matter of fact, this issue affects anything that uses wifi direct. VPN and wifi direct do not work together, they seem incompatible after the update to 4.4.2 kitkat. This seems a serious bug that has been very seldom discussed. Is it possible our devices have something unusual?
Vpn screen mirroring allshare cast miracast wifi direct are all terms associated with this issue.
Hi did you guys solved the problem. I too met with this issue after upgrading to kitkat. Am using note 8. Need some help from experts. Would like to watch uk programs on tv thru screen mirroring.
Is there any confirmed Android version this used to work. It's so important to me, I think I would even downgrade.
Of course it would be a lot better if there was a general solution to this problem. It seems that all trafic even the screen mirroring itself gets routed to the new address.

I had same problem when my s4 updated to 4.4.2 so I think 4.4.1 should work. Any ideas where I can find that version and change it on my phone as I used to use vpn and allshare cast together all the time?
VPN is point to point tunneling. Therefore, it is proper to close off all other IPC channels. It is functioning property.

I second that. First of all, it used to work just fine according to a couple of forum members.
Furthermore VPN is a VIRTUAL private network, making you appear, you had another IP adress to the outside world. In your local network, everything else should work.

Any update on this guys? A pain in the t*ts. Its effecting my s4 & s5 both 4.4.2 rooted. A rooted s3 on a lower FW works ok but i don't want to have to keep the s3 just for that. As others posted only fails after you connect to a VPN and I need it for the same reason as others i.e. different regions of netflix.
screen mirroring
Hello, any update regarding this issue?, any ideas if this is gonna be fixed on the 5.0 lollipop update? one last question is there an aosp rom out there for the 12.2 or note 8.0 or S5 that supports screen mirroring that i can try to fix this issue, to have vpn and screen mirroring on at the same time? thank you and sorry for my poor English.
Screen Mirroring + VPN isn't working since KitKat (was working fine with Jelly Bean) for all Samsung devices (as far as I know).
There is no solution for sure as downgrade (wasn't able to do so on Galaxy Note 10.1 2014) was reported as not fixing the issue (as issue seems to be in the Kernel).
VPN with Lollipop seems quite uncertain (add new feature to select which App should use VPN or not, but lot of complaints of people about VPN simply not working).
I'm crossing fingers and I hope someone will have good news soon.
So i had this problem until i downloaded the boxpn app and miracast shortcut app. You have to have an account with boxpn but it's only 38 for 12 months. So i turn on my Samsung tv, i have a galaxy s6. Open the miracast app then turn on the vpn and it works fine. Screen mirroring and vpn
I like to stream but I can not stream and use vpn when I use screen mirroring on my phone I have a Samsung Galaxy grand is there a solution
I have tried this effort using box VPN and Miracast at the same time. It didn't worked and disconnect from WiFi.
There is only one solution for this problem you can use USB cable screenmirroring and from this if you connect with vpn it will not disconnect for reference you can checkout youtube that how to use screen mirroring using USB . Hence problem solved enjoy
Just exclude Android System from your VPN connection if your VPN app the functionality of excluding selected apps.
I had this problem for years and just suddenly came up with this idea.
I have SGS3 T999
I commented... on my phone without more I don't remember I had the screen mirroring q was perfect but when I upgrade to 4.3 screen mirroring is disabled the minute a little more... unto you pass equal.
Comment also q put smasung patch and still the same...
Any solution? or some screen mirroring for the galaxy?
I am not sure I completely follow that question or questions. If you are looking for Screen Mirroring options, then there are several apps that offer such a functionality. Primarily Miracast comes to mind. As always the phone does support DLNA if your TV supports.

disconnects right away... I only thing I want to do is mirror of my phone to the TV screen...
I just wanted to mention that this should be in the Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting section. I rooted my phone with custom ROM and Recovery and only had to download the AllshareCast Dongle S/W update to get my phone to work with the smartdock and MHL adapter. But doing a quick search of "allshare" on the play store brings up multiple alternatives for the allshare cast app which might work.

I was just doing some reading on random posts and found this which may help. I had done this before updating and didn't realize that it had anything to do with fixing the problem.
Yes that is correct. Particularly if you are using Samsung's own Screen Mirroring.
I still make it work ahhh if I find another solution as dire... thanks for everything
I've got a question with the native Screen Mirroring feature. On my Note PRO it just works. I connect to all my devices painlessly. Picked up the Note 4 last week and I have been unsuccessful in connecting it to -any- of my devices. I always get the message that it failed, and on the device it shows "connecting" but eventually times out.
I can use AllCast and Chromecast, no problem...Just unable to mirror my screen!
Anyone else having this issue?
Cast Screen.
Chromecast app has the Note 4 enabled for Cast Screen.
Just open the app and the option should be on the left menu.
Which is fine if a Chromecast is available, but is there a solution regarding the native mirroring feature found on the device? Say I'm at work and need to connect to a projector using screen mirroring and the projector doesn't have an input for a Chromecast. Maybe at my friend's house and trying to connect to his bluray... See what I mean?
I only had problems on the Pro after rooting (until a fixed kernel was released). It seems strange that a factory stock device would have the same problem. I have done a factory reset, but the issue persists.
I've used the native mirroring with a fire TV stick without any issues.
Hi, Has anyone been able to get Chromecast to work with our M9?...Please let me know if there is a hidden setting to turn it on or something else. I am able to connect to all my devices but my Chromecast and my Nvidia Shield tablet connects ok with it so the device is working.
Thanks.

Works fine on my M9, no special setup required.
I had it paired with an HTC One X. Got the M9 and downloaded the Chromecast app, launched and it found it and connected fine and casts with no issues.
Maybe try clearing data and cache in the app defaults or a factory reset on the Chromecast itself?

Hi ZombieSuffer, I appreciate the suggestion, I did that but still no go, Just so I am clear what my issue is, I can cast individual apps but I am not able to mirror the entire phone like I can do with my M7 or Shield tablet. I Also tested it with my Roku 3 player and same problem.
Thanks
Chingonazo
Oh, I see. Not sure if this helps but I found a thread around 9 months old that might have some steps you can run through to get it to mirror.

Hey guys,
i have a Mi 6 with unofficial RR running Oreo. When i install google home i cant see all my chromecast devices - even though thru YouTube app i am actually able to cast to all of them. Spotify however does not see them (but it does see other android devices having cast receiver installed).
At first i thought that my wifi setup might be messed up, but i tried an iPhone i had around and its working like a charm - seeing both Chromecasts and cast receiver devices.
I searched google and this forum, but couldnt find anything related.. - is anyone experiencing this kind of problem and do you have a solution?
