Found it in the chromecast app. I'm used to nexus devices.
Yeah. It was an option on my s6 edge 64gb and works perfectly

I found an option for screen mirroring in the quick settings as well. I haven't actually tested it however. See the attached screenshot.

Screen mirroring

Hello,
I was trying to mirror the screen of pixel 3xl to samsung smart tv but guess what, wasn't possible to do so.
With BN my s9+, pocophone and s8 can do it easily, since the above TV is recognized as a screen cast device.
I searched on internet about this and all I could find was that pixel devices must be rooted, in buidprop this "persist.debug.wfd.enable" line with value of 1 must be added, in order to get screen casting to work.
Do you guys have the same problem? And if so, what have you done to overcome it?
Cheers
Since there are the pixel smartphones, the method doesn't work anymore. But I had seen a Magisk module somewhere.

screen mirroring works fine, default service is very touch and go, but 3rd party one work fine. I stand corrected, default function only works with google cast now.

"miracast" (screen-cast) on Pixel2XL mit Android Q

Yes - I know that Google allows a screencast to Chormcast, but not on smart TVs. Now I have a new LG OLED with WebOS 4.5. A screencast is possible with my wife's Samsung J7, but not with my Pixel2XL - wow!
A "Google"-search didn't really help me.
Magisk module miracast module leads to the bootloop
build.prop cannot be edited with Android Q either, because I cannot mount the system partition in TWRP either.
Does anyone have an idea?
Sounds like "miracast" is the issue. My SmartTV (Philipps 55PUS8804) comes with Android TV and has Chromecast built in. Screencasting works flawlessly. The Pixel2 XL does not come with miracast support out of the box. Maybe you give one of these apps a try: https://play.google.com/store/search?q=miracast

Thanks for the tip. It is actually a "Google - miracast" -issue. Shame on Google - A simple miracast streaming seems to be denied to pixel users!

If you're willing to downgrade you can flash the April factory image and the magisk module will work,i stayed on the April update for a while till Android 10 was released but miracast worked just fine

Is Miracast bug in AOSP or LOS?

There is a bug in LineageOS 17.1 on multiple hardware where Miracast/ Screen cast no longer works. I noticed this on my Xiaomi Pocophone F1 (beryllium) when I did a 20200801 nightly upgrade.
My question is, is the bug in the AOSP or the LineageOS? Is it something that Google has done to force people to use Chromecast or is it a problem with the LineageOS that hasn't yet been fixed?
It's a very annoying bug and I wonder how easy it is for the developers to fix? Can it be fixed by a user changing a setting or is it a default setting that an uninformed user is unlikely to be able to change?

Usually features can vanish in an android version upgrade, but not in a regular update.

Yes. I would have thought that this was so but Miracast was working until I updated a 20200801 nightly build. That's why I think that it might be a default setting.
I also noticed this:

Maybe that will solve the problem?

Google creates Android Compatibility Definition Documents, in which it is written:
Code:
5.8. Secure Media
If device implementations support secure video output and are capable of supporting secure surfaces, they:
[C-1-1] MUST declare support for Display.FLAG_SECURE.
If device implementations declare support for Display.FLAG_SECURE and support wireless display protocol, they:
[C-2-1] MUST secure the link with a cryptographically strong mechanism such as HDCP 2.x or higher for the displays connected through wireless protocols such as Miracast.
If device implementations declare support for Display.FLAG_SECURE and support wired external display, they:
[C-3-1] MUST support HDCP 1.2 or higher for all external displays connected via a user-accessible wired port.
That's the theory. In practice, everything depends on programmers.
For example.
In the custom ROM with Android 9 for Oneplus One Miracast (connection to Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter) works only in 3 ROMs with 33 that I tested.
In the custom ROM with Android 10 for Oneplus One Miracast (connection to Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter) does not work in any ROM with 25 that I tested.

Miracast starting working again after build 20200829. There was d"ummy HIDL lib" removed that shouldn't have been removed and now it's back again. https://review.lineageos.org/284011

To which model of device do you cast the screen in Android 17.1 using Miracast (WiFi Display)?
.
I have a Panasonic Personal Video Recorder (PVR) model number DMR-BWT955. Under its Function menu there's an option to "Miracast". I select that option and it starts searching for devices. I select the "Screen Cast" option from the drag down menu on my Pocophone and select the "DMR-BWT955" device to connect to. They both do their bits and then I see my Pocophone screen showing up on my TV screen, which is connected to the PVR. My 5.1 surround sound system is also connected to the PVR and so I can not only see what's on my Pocophone but also hear what's it's playing through the 5.1 sound system.
Is that the sort of information that your after?

Question Desktop mode working?

Hi,
I've been trying to get the desktop mode to work on android 12 OriginOS but all I'm getting is a blank screen with navigation buttons (either while if I pick light theme, or black if I pick dark theme)
When the phone is locked, then the clock appears on the external monitor
I tried 3 different adapters / cables but getting same results
Only app so far where it works 100% is VLC: The video will properly play on the external monitor, in full screen (no tearing visible or any artifacts)
Has this been fixed on android 13?
Did someone manage to get the desktop mode to work?
cam someone with android 13 try this in the developer options -> 'Force desktop mode'?
Does it display anything?
Thanks
I've tested it on OnePlus 9 Pro running Android 13 on a Huion Kamva 13 tablet and I could see the desktop screen on it. However pen was not working at all.
Hoping that Android 13 improves on it, anyone being successful or seen improvements over Android 12 version?
How did you get apps on the external monitor? I was unable to move an app from phone's screen to external screen, any options?
