Hi All,
Is there some magic involved in getting this TV to turn off / on via google assitant?
It has an inbuilt chrome cast that works, and linked to my google home account, but it will not function to turning on or off the TV.
I have set the TV to quick start but no luck.
I have also plugged in a chromecast that works with my other TV (LG) and that functions fine in being able to turn tv off/on. When i plug it in the TCL nothing, it works as a chromecast for casting, and it turns on the TV if i send something to cast to it, but not via voice.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
THanks.

I found this thread when typing in the title of my thread, but it doesn't look like they were able to get casting working on their Samsung TV.
I edited the build.prop, rebooted, enabled wireless display, and my Fire Stick shows up.
When I try to connect, it says that it's connecting for about 3 minutes, and then nothing. I'm able to connect my Nexus 6P to it, but no luck with the Pixel.
Edit: disregard. I had the VPN on my phone switched on. I have to turn off VPN connection for my phone and firestick to cast.
I have Cubot Note S, which runs LineageOS 13 (R81) and a Grundig 40 VLE 6730 BP smart TV ([email protected] 4.0 - non-Android OS).
I wanted to cast my screen (and audio) from a phone to TV, so I can watch HBO Go and Netflix on it. My TV does not support HBO and Netflix apps, so I can not stream directlly on TV.
But, my TV has "Screen Share" function wich uses "LiveShare" (I dont know what that is) to cast/mirror screen from a computer or mobile device to the TV. There are no instructions on how to actualy acheive this. And there is no Grunding support in my country, nor do I have their global (or any) email.
On my TV, I turn on Screen Share, and it says "Ready to connect".
When I go on my pohone to Settings, Screen and Lights, Cast - my TV is there. And I tap on it to connect. Then on my TV it says "connecting". But it fails to connect. Every time.
So in-built Screen Cast feature in Android 6.0.1 (LineageOS 13) sees my TV, but won't connect.
Can you help me?

Its a dubious technology not worth the effort.
Any way to flash the fire TV so it comes up as a cast enabled device in the Google home app, so you can ask Google Home to play a YouTube video ect?
Android YouTube App can cast to Fire TV Stick.
Other Apps not all of.
Hi all, I can't use smart view for mirroring to TVs, be it Sony Android TV, LG WebOS TV, or samsung's own (I don't know what's the OS). it connects, then immediately disconnects without even showing the mirroring. It failed to connect, technically. What's the problem?
Are you using any VPN while trying to mirror? If so, disconnect VPN and try again.
Same, no change
smartview has not worked for me once
using chromecast on netflix and youtube works perfectly, however chromecast with any other app gives me same issue as smartview
Hi,
Is there a way to bypass an unsupported Sony Android TVs to install Alexa?
I got 55X900H and 49X800H from Philippines, I was able to install Amazon Alexa Music, Cameras, & TV Control via apk but I cannot proceed connecting the TV to my Alexa app.
I'm stuck with enable Sony TV Android Skill - this is already enabled but the TV cannot recognize it.
Thanks
Any takers?
I have been looking into this as well but I haven't found a solution so far. Looks like it is something that could work.
Hi, did you resolve the problem? I have KD-55XE8505. No Alexa support program.
