How to connect to tv via wireless display feature. I know that pixel works only with Chromecast in this way but is there anyway to do it without Chromecast? Maybe some app or actions with rooted device?
I have not tried it as I have some hit and miss luck loading Magisk Modules but there is one to re-enable Miracast.

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
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.

I sideloadeded settings using adb in windows onto my unloacked firestick from the guide from ‘sideloadfiretv.com’ and the ‘settings’ do not work. When clicking on bluetooth, it disappears and reverts back to ‘Launch Applications’. Does anyone have an idea as to why it is not working?
Thanks

Well you should start with what s/w version you are running first ...it will not work under OS5, it has been posted numerous times.

Hi thanks I must of missed that since I spent more time looking on other sites.... does that rule out all versions of 5? the latest being 5.05- I dont know the version I have even though I updatewd Kodi to Jarvis. I am trying to get the Direct TV tablet app that I sideloaded to work- do you that micro usb otg cable adapter would work?
TJ
No version of FireOS 5 will work with the settings.apk from pre-5.0 android.
why do you need to access the BT settings from this sideloaded settings apk? fireOS 5 has more BT support than fireOS3 did.

Hi I wanted the bluetooth settings to independantly control the andoid apps that I sideloaded, particularly the directv app for tablets but from what I understand a micro usb otg adapter (to plug the dongle inline to the firestick) will work probably better- one should be in today so I'll know when I get in. I did run into another problem, the directv app started having an error once clicking on channels stating I needed to be connected to the same network which I am and the same error comes up on 3 different tablets. I have yet to try the app that I sideloaded to the stick before I had issues witht the app working which I am guessing may be updates and if so do you know if the stick would update the app as well?
By the way I do have the latesd os OS the stick 5.0.5 that it showed so I still don't know why settings didn't work. Since I am not really as gamer, I opted for checking out the firestick as oppesed to the firetv since browsing was fast with the quad core processor on my Samsung smart tv unless the firestick does not utilize it. I may buy the ftv but if I do that why not just buy one of the new octacore android boxes with greater capabilitues.
Any thoughts on what may be the best way to stream the directv app? and or what the best streaming boxes might be?- I know some even stram live tv.
Thanks again,
TJ

Hi thank you I didn't see this response. I was tryong to get this to work to be able to run the directv app but as oppesed to running cable to the room. I guess the fire tv is the way to go? I am not sue of the difference between 1 & 2 but from what I understand the newer one the have out not cannot be unlocked?
Thanks
I am trying to find a way to cast movies from phone to tv in my camper without using a wifi network. I used to be able to cast from my Note 3 on 4.4 but apparently miracast is broken on 5.0.2? What would work without internet and a wifi network? I read that a Amazon Firestick would work once it's initially set up on a wifi network but haven't been able to verify.

I recently moved and had to wait for my ISP to setup internet. It idn't work for me even with a internal network. It needs an outside internet connection for setup to complete. None of my Amazon devices or Chromecast worked and only one of my Plex clients worked because it was previously configured for automatic sign in.

Here is how I do it when I travel but you may need a intermediate device. I would download movies onto my phone, start up my hotspot, use another device to setup the chromecast and then use an app like Local Cast to cast the movies from my phone to the chromecast. Recently I tried it and Local Cast wouldnt see the chromecast from my phone. So I moved the movies to my tablet and my tablet over the hotspot could see the chromecast and then I would stream them that way.
Because you arent actually pulling data for the movies (other than whatever background processes are running on the tablet) it doesnt sap away at your hotspot data.
I downlaod my movies to my Note 3 which is currently a wifi only device. I then set up a hot spot on my pixel xl and set up the chromecast. Then using allcast I was able to connect and cast to the chromecast. I swear this was much easier when miracast worked. I haven't tried the Firestick yet to see what happens.
I tested a few things to see what would work with the chromecast. Hotspot had to be on and left on. I could never get "guest" mode to work but the info says it should work so a guest can cast without being on your wifi network. No clue how to make that work yet.
I'll try and test firestick tonight. I also have a spare wifi router that I might take and see what I can do with it.
The firestick did not work.
This is so annoying since it worked on Android 4.4 and now on 5.0.2 it doesn't. I just want to simply cast my phone to my tv in a camper without a wifi network. I suppsoe I can eventually buy a wifi router but I really shouldn't have to. I wonder if the Note 8 will have Miracast or not?
Miracast works with crDroid ROM

I just got Miracast working with "crDroidAndroid-8.1-20180405-marlin-v4.1" for the Pixel XL. I just went into settings - connected devices - cast - then hit the three dots in the upper right hand corner to 'enable cast'. On my Fire Stick I started device mirroring. Bingo! Fire Stick shows up as connected. Works with VLC and Youtube testing so far. Sound and video work. Rotation of phone to horizontal creates full screen (55" TV) mode. I have magisk 16* installed but there are no settings I used in that app for this to work, just wanted it noted as it is the only non-stock app installed so far.

I posted this in the Pixel thread as well, forgot which forum I was on....

Interesting. I am on 8.1 stock, rooted, and custom kernel. I will have to test again when camping season kicks in here soon. I did pick up a Galaxy s7 Edge that will hopefully cast with Miracast. The Note 3 I was trying to use is retired now.
Once I enabled tethering on mine I was able to cast to my Chromecast with the in app cast button. I either had data disabled (the x over the cellular signal) or I turned on airplane mode then the tethering. This allowed it to work for some reason that I cannot explain in much detail. Basically one of those two things maybe both can't remember causes the traffic to be properly routed locally instead of over the net like before. I accomplished this on stock Android using localcast,YouTube, and Netflix less than a month ago.
Can the Razer phone cast to Chromecast or Android TV?
Of course it can for movies, music etc not sure about screen mirroring if that's what you mean.
Few apps that work generically in the play store.
Maybe someone with more Android experience will chime in. Looks to be a few tho.

Casting is not device specific but app specific. For example The CW app doesn't support casting, so I can't cast it to my Mi Box with has chrome cast installed in it. But, YouTube app has cast in the app, so I can then connect to my Mi Box with Bluetooth or over my wifi connection to cast the YouTube app to it. I just did this last night with no issues.
Hi were you able to try google home mirroring? Thanks again.
Google Chromecasting works, as well as miracasting. Which is not than the Google Pixel would do.. Answer is yes and supports all forms of casting well.
I was in a restaurant that had chrome cast with their TV. My phone saw it and asked if I would like to cast.
Shoulda thrown up some porn lol
Look in the drop-down notification screen. There is an icon for casting. That means that you can cast your screen or anything on it. It's not app specific.

Chromecast yes, miracast, not on stock (I think you can enable it with root, but not sure)
