Hi guys
I know there are threat about this matter but none of them have any solution . As you know Samsung phones have smart view which can screen mirror and control your smart TV.
Nexus 5x doesn't recognize Mira cast devices and with changing build.prop althogh it can recognize the TV but unable to connect to it. Do you guys have any idea to solve this problem?
I'm sure there is a software way. Because there shouldn't be a hardware problem with Nexus 5x .
Did any one connect a Nexus 5x to Samsung TV?
I think it depends on the year of the Samsung TV. My 4K is a 2014 model and doesn't do screen cast or mirroring yet my in-laws is 2016 and I believe does work.

Mine is a 2016 model and can't connect to it. There should be a way for this problem . Is there any way to port samsung smart view app on Nexus 5x?
Any idea?
Miracast was removed with (I think) 6.0. It's a proprietary API.
There's a few people on the 6p forums trying to get it to work, with little success.
You can change the following in the build.prop to get the Samsung device to show up on the list, the phone connects, but it doesn't cast.
persist.debug.wfd.enable=1
You also need to set Allow WiFi in the cast options.
BTW, the Smart View app is just a remote control app. It should work just fine, as long as your phone and TV are connected to the same network.
Edit: really should have read the op before replying, I basically said the same thing as you!

Hmm. Will have to give it a try next time I'm over there. Although, I could've possibly connected via Chromecast and got mixed up.

Yes it works in chrome cast but chrome cast need a router and that slow down the streaming . The benefit from the screen mirroring is that your phone connect directly to your smart tv so you have a smooth and fast experience on it .a 3rd party device like chrome cast is not a good alternative for screen mirroring.

I wasn't saying Chromecast is a great alternative. I was just saying I might've not been directly connected to the TV like I originally thought. While we're on it though, Chromecast does get the job done for the most part though if your router is close and fast.

Does anyone know if it's possible to get the SmartShare app that comes with LG phones to work with the S3? Just got an LG smart TV and want to use this feature. I did find an APK, but it just force closes after installation with the message 'manufacturer not match'
I'm not sure on the implications of this and I would check but I suppose you could alter thebbuil prop to saybthis is an lg phone and not a Sammy.
Check first as I have no idea of it's problems etc

No it never will and never was! Works with LG's verry well, don't get the OP's point why he wants the SmartShare app if AllShare can do the same...
DLNA is a standard so should work with ALL DLNA capable products!
Only screen mirror and that kind of (non_DLNA) functions will work per brand...
I actually find BubbleUPnP better than AllShare too as you can assign a different video player app - take a look at that if you're not a fan of AllShare.

No Allshare app is only for Samsung devices for now. Samsung wants to include other brands too eventually but for now all Samsung devices can be connected thru it. My LG smart tv is not recognized on it and just like allshare, LG has their own Smartshare. OP can still use DLNA directly on S3 to connect his TV but allshare would only work with Samsung devices
I have actually patched the manufacturer check but it crashes on my Nexus 7... I will share apk here so you can test it on your device.
NOTE: I do not think this is going to work on any device exept LG becouse of some kernel modules that are developed by LG and included only in their phones.
Does not works :crying:

Anyone
Is there any way to do a screencast on an Android device... in particular the Nexus 7? I'm trying to put together a video and I wanted a clip that showed the U.S. and it zoomed into a specific city. Problem is, on the computer Google Earth is somewhat choppy despite having nearly brand new hardware, and Google Maps just does an instant snap to that location. Google Maps on my N7 on the other hand works JUST AS I WOULD LIKE... but I'm not sure how to capture it?
Any idea?

Screencast captures your phone screen at high frame rates into a high quality MPEG4 video with audio. It can also take snapshots of your screen by holding the search key on your phone.

I want something like this, not to record a screencast, but to use as a way of having video out in lieu of not having hdmi. I have a pc hooked up to my hdmi display and was looking at the options. This app sounds like the best but doesn't work yet with tegra 2/3.
How fast is it with other devices? Like could a game be played at a smooth frame rate? Does it allow to stream live and not record a video?
Are there any other ways of doing this?
I've been searching for a while now with no luck. I record gameplay on my GNote with the afore mentioned app but seeing as the developer has all but vanished I'm guessing we won't be seeing Tetra support.
You'd almost think Nvidia would make an app to do this just so Tetra fans could make gameplay videos, thereby promoting their devices.

There are some demo videos of stuff coming... Nivdia has one showing a playbook to a TV that has the Miracast protocol
and ESR labs has the following
Hopefully soon...
Unless you already have a TV with it built in, you will need a some some sort dongle that has WiFi and s HDMI output. I just got a raspberry pi to be used with the ESR labs Android Transporter when it come available.
Sent from my Nexus 7
I just stumbled upon those videos yesterday. Very interesting stuff. I think I may grab a couple of raspberry pi's. I'm in Canada and I couldn't find it in stock right now. I wish they would build a cheap enclosure for it. I put a post on their website if they plan on making a linux client and not just for the pi. I would think it wouldn't take too much to make a generic version. I also noticed some hdmi outputs on tablets don't provide 1:1 mirroring. For ex, acer tablets cutoff the bottom menu. This I believe is for video playback, which makes sense, but I hope it's an option or in the spec of miracast to offer 1:1. I saw a TI demo of miracast as well, and they make mention of the display showing one thing and the tablet showing something different typical of normal wired hdmi outputs. Nvidia also has demo's of miracast as you linked, but I hope they make a windows client. It'll be a ways off before it's standard on TV's and it sounds like there will be dongle's available, but a lot of people have computers hooked up to their displays so it would be nice if there is a complete software solution as well.

No, it's not possible. you need root or a pc (actually the root way to do it does not work atm)
Android 4.2 is supposed to include native support for Miracast devices. So we just need the Miracast set top boxes.
Does anyone know if Miracast carries over Audio?
I just installed Screencast on my N7 with CM10.1 grouper nightly 12182012.
When I try to screen capture video in landscape or in portrait the audio saves properly, but the video is a static hodgepodge of TWRP Touch recovery in a purplish sepiatone
yo b1LL did you bother reading Screencast app description? doesnt support Nexus 7 nor any tegra 3 based devices
Here's one
There's another thread that has one, and it works for screencasting but it really only gets 1-2 fps. So if you're desperate:

Really depends on how and where you want to use it. For home use, either one probably be OK. I don't think you can mirror with Chromecast (not sure about Miracast). Also, I've heard that results sometimes vary; some people have complained about audio delays with Miracast.
If you want to use your Android device to watch video somewhere other than at home (say, at a motel), Chromecast will probably not work because of the types of networks available at hotels. Miracast might work, but you would not be able to connect to the hotel's wi-fi network while using it.
Personally, I have a Xbox setup for streaming video at home that works great, so I mainly use my Android stuff while in hotels. For me, the best bet is a Slimport adapter. This will give you high quality video and will let you stream from a hotel wi-fi network or using 4G. Anything that you watch on your phone, you can watch using a Slimport adapter.

From my understanding, EZCast will mirror anything displayed on the source device to the TV but Chromecast is limited to specific apps. Is this correct?

I'm currently running rooted stock Jelly Bean 4.1(with plans to flash official Kitkat) and I'm looking into getting a smart TV most likely an LG. The model I'm considering has the following inbuilt 'smart' share options:
Google DIAL
MIRACAST Screen Share
MHL Screen Share
WiDi
The TV has these connectivity options:
WiFi Ready(wifi not built in, needs adapter)
WiFi Direct
Simplink
I know DIAL is a new thing without much traction right now, WiDi is exclusive to Intel devices. I'm particularly keen on wireless screen mirroring to the TV, so my questions are:
-Can I connect seamlessly via Miracast with my Note 8?
-Which currently available android version on our device works best for screen mirroring(4.1, 4.2 or 4.4)?
-Is Allshare any specific app necessary to mirror my screen or is it natively supported by the ROM?
-Will it be beneficial to buy a chromecast? Will it work with the Note 8?
I've scoured through the Note 8 forums and screen mirroring isn't mentioned a whioe lot and often just in passing. There are many posts concerning allshare not working with rooted stock ROMs, but many of these are old posts from last year. There's hardly mention of screen mirroring on Kitkat. Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Not sure about LG being 100% compatible... I have a 2009 Samsung with DNLA and AnyLink+
The AnyLink+ connects any Samsung device with automatic turn on and input change. Plus it will turn off the TV if the device should turn off.
From what I see the LG should do what you need as AnyNet+ is really not a requirement.

Thanks, so how is Miracast implemented currently in the stock ROM? I'm on JB 4.1, all I have is allshare. Is Miracast available as a separate feature in 4.2 upwards?

Miracast is the feature called Screen Mirroring on the quick action bar.
As for Samsung Link / All Share, there are some latency issues but with Chinese Miracast/DLNA dongles some provide very fast response to limit latency.
All Share is the same thing as Link... both use Samsung's Miracast... depending on your Samsung updates, you should have an All Share firmware update installed to the tablet. Once you connect with the All Share device the firmware is automatically updated.

I think I have to come clean on something, I'm still on JB 4.1.2, and all I HAD was allshare, I deleted/debloated it after rooting. So I don't have the app anymore but I want to know if the more recent stock ROMs have a Miracast function separate from Allshare that can connect the tablet to a miracast enabled TV.

Hello, I was just curious if there is a kernel that supports/enables miracast?
Thank you in advance
Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
Mircast is a Samsung exclusive. In Android (before Oreo) you use to be able to make a build prop edit to enable casting to Miracast devices, but no longer is that a option.
Are you wanting Miracast or DLNA to where you can cast your media onto your Samsung Smart TV (I think LG has DLNA as well).
Basically, the way i am able to project my streams from movie apps or the media on my phone to my 3-4 year old Samsung Smart tv with 3rd party apps...no rooting or flashing was necessary to get this working.
I downloaded one of many DLNA apps out there. The one Im using is called: XCast. i just turn on my tv, make sure the tv is connected thru wifi, and then when i choose the player for my media content, I go to "open with," then select XCast, which then recognizes my tv and then im able to shoot my stream onto my tv...basically, wireless hdmi.
If you have any questions, feel free to IM me. Good luck, hope my ramblings made sense

Hi guys,
I'm so excited to tell you that I just enabled Miracast for Pixel 1 running Android Pie.
you can go to the forum Google Pixel -> Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion for more details.
I only have a Pixel 1, but I will also build files for Pixel XL/2/2 XL/3/3XL. You can try it if you can replace your system files.
I'm not sure if it can work on other devices, but I really want to hear that it works too!
