Question Chrome OS Phone Hub - Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4

Anyone have success syncing their Fold 4 to Chrome OS Phone Hub?

Hi,
Working fo me with HP X360.

Must be something specific to me then with the Duet 3, only shows my old phone

haven't had a chance to try it yet

It was difficult to make Fold 4 working with chromebook.
For me too, only shows my old phone so I reset my chromebook to default (powerwash I thnik) then I have to force pairing of Fold 4 (link above). And then it works.I guess only pairing is needed.

I've run those steps so many times. I've powerwashed my chromebook also. I find it interesting that my chromebook and phone can not see each other in bluetooth. I have a Duet 3.

I've at least narrowed it down to this showing up under the Fold 4 settings in the proximity auth logs.
"[Better Together host]": "[not supported]",
I think that has to show supported, before it will show up, but no idea how that would get changed.

Also having Mirroring issues
I also have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) that is having issues with mirroring. I have an older TV and purchased a Netgear Push2TV device PTV3000 for wireless mirroring. When I try to connect to the Netgear device the Tablet usually fails to connect and displays the "unable to connect because of a hardware problem". I have been able to get it to connect, however, if I reboot the tablet, but if you disconnect and try to reconnect it will display the same error message.
Even if you do get it to connect it will drop out like clockwork about every 3-5 minutes. I tried to stream a movie to it and locked up every 3-5 minutes all the way through over and over. The movie will just freeze and then the tablet It will display something like "lost connection to the server " and you can report or reconnect. It will reconnect and start back where it left off, but quit again in 3-5 minutes. Very frustrating for a brand new 600 dollar device.
This is most likely a software problem if you don't have any trouble with your wifi connection.
I do not have any reason to believe my WIFI has any issues. I can stream the movie to the Samsung Tablet without any problem, it's only when I try to use the mirroring that problems occur. Also, I was able to mirror using the exact same setup with an android phone I had laying around that's about 3 years old and was able to 1) connect to the Push2TV much more readily 2) stream the movie without it locking up every 3-5 minutes.
I just bought a brand new Samsung smart TV 7250 series. Exact same problem. P600, US, totally stock. Not even root.

I just got the ptv3000, updated the firmware, and can connect no problems, except for the fact that it only mirrors a corner of my screen (only 1080p out of 1600p of the tab). I just can't figure out what to do. Yet I also saw that others had got it working. Why is it difficult with this tab.

So you got that working except the resolution issue right? To help others can you please share info of your device?
Which version of the tablet? (4g, 3g or wifi)
Rooted or not?
Stock or custom rom?

Hi There, No need to worry. Please read below the fix.
Alright, here is the Fix for this. Please spread the word if this works for you. Because it worked for me. I didn't discover this solution so I can't take credit for this. Here it goes:
1. On your Note Pro/Tab Pro find All Share Cast from Samsung and UnInstall all the updates. Then click Force Close, all of this should be done in Application Manager.
2. Restart your Note Pro/Tab Pro (Very Important)
3. Using two fingers pull down the main screen from top down to unveil the controls menu. Touch Screen Sharing while the Miracast or other screen sharing service (Wifi Direct etc) is activated on Your TV.
4. Let it auto find it and auto connect..........Viola!

So I contacted Samsung customer support regarding this problem.
The first contact, they required me to do a factory reset, so in order to go any farther, I did that.
Once that was done, and the problem still existed, even before doing any updates or anything, I contacted Samsung Support again.
This time, they told me that I would have to send it in for repair at my expense (because mine is out of warranty; which pisses me off, because it was less than 3 weeks out of warranty.) Mind you, they never could tell me what the cost would be.
So apparently, I'm just not going to be able to screen cast from my SAMSUNG tablet to my SAMSUNG TV... even though screencasting from my Moto X works perfectly fine...
I do have squaretrade, but I'm not sure I want to claim that warranty just because of some screen mirroring not working...

If I had the time I'd be happy to try, but I need this tablet for work right now, and I finally just got everything set back up from when I had to factory reset over the weekend. Maybe when I have the time in the future.

All Share Cast has been replaced by Samsung Link. Screen Mirror works in Chromecast app on S5 and Note 10.1 (2014) but uses the network so has some lag. Screen Mirror works with Microsoft Display Adapter on S5 without network or lag but get the hardware error on stock Note 10.1 (2014). Tried the All Share Cast Patch and that did not work either. Still looking.

[Q] SideSync not working properly

I have installed SideSync in my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 LTE and in my Windows 7 computer but it doesn't work properly.
They connect successfully but in the PC I see a window with the proportion of the phone screen in portrait mode and then the image of the phone screen appears appears rotated 90 degrees, occupying all the width of the window in the middle and the rest is black. Also, the blue circle that you move with the mouse and represents the finger doesn't act properly, as if the coordinates were messed up.
I tried with another Note 2 (this one not LTE) with same results. I also installed the app in my Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 tablet and the same happens here. The image appears rotated and the phone can't be controlled with the tablet app.
Hi:
Did you ever figure this out. It just started happening with me as well.
Thanks.
Same here with rooted stock ROM 4.4. 2 N7100XXUFND3 on Samsung Galaxy Note 2.
SideSync 3.0 version shows 3.2.7.1215 and works via USB connection under Windows 7
me too.... was ok the last time.. really hope there is a fix for this.
same here
hi, i have the same issue. I have Windows 8.1 and two phones. Note 2 has the same issue as described by jedikalimero .
Second phone is galaxy S4 and that works just fine on the same computer (with the same cable).
I have found an article about enabling USB debugging, but that did not help.
Any fix to this yet?? funny enough I installed a custom rom on my Note 3 which was a port of a Note 4 and it finally started working but I left that ROM for another flavor and it's back to this stupid issue.. Such a shame..
Same problem here!
Did anyone find a fix for this?
Thanks!
still ni fix
for real? no fix?

You can use TeamViewer. It works great and it comes in different flavours, depending on what you want to do. There is a host app and a server app. The server app lets you control your Android/IOS/Windows Phone or tablet with your Windows/Linux/MacOS PC and the host app lets you control your Windows/Linux/MacOS PC with your Android/IOS/Windows Phone or tablet. And with the desktop app you can also control another PC.
Sometimes I have left my Windows PC turned on in London and have controlled it with my Note Pro tablet or my Note 4 phone from Tenerife, even downloading files from the PC to my phone.
I just want to see the phone screen on the PC, to play some games
team viewer I already try but there is not this option

There wasn't. It is a new feature. you have to install Teamviewer in your PC and create an account.
Then install TeamViewer Host in your Note: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teamviewer.host.market
You have to log in in your TeamViewer account when you run it so your phone can be associated with your account and appear in the devices list of your PC TeamViewer.
The app will also ask you to install an add-on, so allow it and you are ready to go.

There is now also a TeamViewer Host app for Samsung that allows not only screen mirroring but also control from the PC (or Mac). But if you installed the original Teamviewer Host, it probably has already asked you to install this special version and remove the regular one so chances are you already know this
SideSync works but I can't control the note 2 from my PC when you click on Phone Screen, I use my mouse to swipe and try to unlock the phone and it don't work,the drop down menu works only if you click on the the button at the top in the middle ,the button thats hidden with 2 lines in it and can't click on anything,the back and menu buttons at the bottom don't work too.,any ideas..?

Note 10+ and Android Auto Issues

This issue has been logged numerous times on Google Forums - but I wanted to check in with people here. I have the new Note 10+ 5G and having serious issues keeping Android Auto running with my Pioneer Head Unit (please note, I have had NO issues with other Android Phones - OnePlus 7 Pro, Google Pixel 3XL, Sony Xperia 1).
Basically, when connecting the Note 10+, Android Auto worked fine for the first session, then crashed on the second, and since simply won't connect until the phone does a full reboot (then will only work once and run into the same issues). At first I thought DEX was interfering (which it probably is!) but unfortunately there is no way to disable DEX apps or the USB response when plugging in an external connection.
Have others had this issue? Any ideas??
Thanks!

No issues here in both of my cars
This is not note 10 this is general issues with any not stock google android and android auto. Are you trying to use wireless or usb AA? They just got wireless working with non google devices, but it's very random when it works. I've had the issue you describe(having to reboot) with wireless, USB is far more reliable.

Thanks so much for your reply. I'm using a direct cable plugged into the Pioneer Head Unit. I have not had this issue with any other handset - and I suspect it may have something to do with DEX. Any other thoughts you may have?
I use it daily on my F150 and I'm not having any issues at all, working perfectly fine. You can try reinstalling the app if you haven't done that already.

Yeah, sorry to hear that. I have a Kenwood DDX9906XR and it does wireless android auto. I have a Google Pixel 3 XL and the Note 10+. I've been able to get wireless android auto working (as well as wired) with NO issues at all. I do think the wireless option is a bit overrated and even sometimes annoying as it doesn't connect as fast as using wired. I just love that Samsung phones are one of the only few left that still use miracast so I get to use the wireless display function in my car.
I have had issue with Waze showing correctly but sometimes when switch to music music plays on screen but not audio. Have to unplu and replug..I did see new apk yesterday so will try it.
My Note 10+(4G model) is having AA issues..
Whenever I plug mine into the Focus RS(SYNC 3) it crashes at 1st use and the Note thinks I am using DEX for PC and to turn it on.
I have tried different cables including Sammy one . and reset the phone to a clean install no joy
I also had an issue with note 10+ connected to my Kenwood Excelon DDX9905S, pandora and spotify - no audio to kenwood would play. I see today there are play store updates for both, perhaps a fix.
on my car, i have to plug in the phone to the car first BEFORE starting the engine. otherwise i get no audio.

I've experienced many issues with AA with a spectrum of devices. I firsts believed that my vehicle was to blame, due to the technology differences, however I've realized that my Buick Encore Preferred II (ALL STOCK EQUIPMENT IN VEHICLE) immediately broadcasts it's Bluetooth/Wifi-Direct as soon as the head-unit/radio is supplied power. I've concluded that MY issues with android auto came from the app recognizing device movement while I was driving.
Now, I'm no expert, but here's my suggestion.
1. Ensure the USB-C cable supports data-transfer and charging simultaneously. (I've made this mistake by ordering USB-C cables ((that only supported charging....poorly)) )
2. Restore Android Auto's factory settings that came with the phone, ensure any Android Auto data-backups are deleted (for troubleshooting purposes).
3. Install/Update via Play store.
4. Disable bluetooth & "forget" any paired vehicles/head-units on your phone.
5. Remove your phone from your vehicle's bluetooth memory.
At this point, your phone should be plugged in to your COMPATIBLE head-unit***, with neither devices recognizing each other.
6. Start your vehicle's battery/engine & stay stationary.
Your phone may immediately start Android Auto. Some head-units automatically do this for you as a "safety/handsfree" feature.
If Android Auto doesn't automatically initiate when you power your head-unit, run the application.
7. Follow your phone's on-screen prompts to finalize set-up.
8. Ensure your phone is connected to your vehicle's bluetooth.
Worked for me!
Remember, if it's not broken, don't fix it.

Same issue here. Worked like a charm with Mate 10 Pro, crashed with my new Note 10 + after a few seconds. Solved it by going through all my USB cables and somehow I found one that worked! (tried 5 different cables). Only a one out of 5 works. My Mate worked with all of them.
Btw: this is the one that worked

Would like to add that the performance of Google maps is incredibly sluggish when zoomed in. Unusable type of sluggish... Waze is perfectly fine.

If you want to disable dex, i've finally found an app to take the place of Samsung package disabler. . It's called CCSWE. I bought the pro license for $2.99. Samsung package disabler from android police worked great when it worked, but they kept losing your license info and have to re-purchase. Since s10+ i haven't got it to work, says something about failed registration or no license.. something to that effect. Developer is not answering any questions.
I had AA running fine on a Note 8 and an S9. On the Note 10+ it kept disconnecting after a couple of seconds. At the end I have it stable, but I had to modify all battery savings options for this app. I did not disable DeX. When I connect the Note 10 to the head unit (USB), I do get the DeX notification but that does not interfere with the connection anymore.
What I do find annoying is that I have the light and dark mode switched based on day and night time. I noticed that the mode follows the day and night mode of my head unit when connected. However, after disconnecting, the original setting (where it switches based on planned schedule on the phone itself) is no longer activated. I like the detail though, that the phone follows the car scene.

Android Auto on 2017 Ford F150 with SYNC 3 Version 3.0 worked fine with a Samsung Note 8.
Phone was upgraded to Note 10+ and Android Auto connects and works for a few seconds and then does not work and SYNC 3 reverts back to standard Ford SYNC 3 screen.
Android Auto still works fine with same USB cable and Note 8 in either USB port in truck on SYNC 3.

I can confirm that in my case I have turned off optimized power and set the phone to maximum performance. I have tried every setting for power and have not had any luck in my case on my Note 10+ phone.
I can confirm that in my case I have run through all of the USB debugging ON/OFF scenarios as well as matching every setting that is on the Note 8 that continues to work with AA and SYNC 3. I have tried every setting and have not had any luck in my case on my Note 10+ phone. I have switched USB cables using everything from Samsung to Anker one-foot to three-foot. All of these cables continue to work with the Note 8 on Android Auto, SYNC 3.
My assumption is this is a new ore revised USB security or access setting embedded somewhere I am unable to locate in the Note 10+ settings/software.
I also tried disabling DEX as that is something new that notifies when connecting USB on the Note 10+ and I figured it might be a conflict with other USB connectivity. No luck there either.
My Note 8 continues to work fine. I am even able to run a Hotspot on the Note 10 + feeding the Note 8 via Wi-Fi connected directly to the USB in the vehicle and that works.
Nothing works on the Note 10+ directly connected to the vehicle via USB with Android Auto and it sounds like it was a problem with the Note 9 and other phones also.
It's frustrating how everything could change so drastically with a new phone release.
I just want Android Auto to work on my new $1100.00 SAMSUNG FLAGSHIP PHONE Note 10+ like it did with my previous SAMSUNG FLAGSHIP PHONE Note 8 ...
Based on all of the previous posts, it appears to be a big problem and I'm sure the others posting have not found resolution, unless they are just not following up with a post.
FYI, Andoid Auto works perfectly on my Note 10 + (and it also worked on my previous Note 8). Using wired set up to 2017 GMC. (And it did work when Dex was on my phone, and it also works now with Dex disabled.)
Thanks
Thanks for responding. Might be a Ford SYNC 3 thing as that appears to be the difference.

I believe (I could be wrong) FORD SYNC 3 is Microsoft (back end).
I had no issues on the S10+ so I can't blame One UI . Tried power settings tried to change USB settings (won't let me when connected to the head unit)
Will try power settings next
My AA works with my Chevy Redline no issues

Mac & Windows won't recognise note 10 for usb transfer or Dex

Hi All
I have a MacBook Air (yes I know) saw the light with the note 10 and wanted to get android over iPhone.
Anyway I can not for the life if me get the MacBook Air or my husbands windows 7 machine to recognise the phone. If plugged in it gives it power but won't pop up to recognise device on either machine...
I spoke to Samsung but they were next to useless about it... any advise on how I can get this working before I end up back with icrap!
Thanks
hello. I have also had this problem since the update to Android 10 and the Dex does not work.

I've got the same problem. Android 10+ and Dex(Windows 10,) does not work.
I can add, that originally, when Note 10+ launched last year , My Note 10 + (Android 9) /Dex (Windows 10) worked flawlessly.
If i connected my device to my Windows 10 laptop Dex would launch automatically, time and again.!
However lately, i think last 2 updates, to Dex,
it just really got worse. .
However,
If i connect to a tv monitor, Dex works 100 %.
No issues.
Further, Windows (Microsoft) My Phone Companion, always
had some errors. Now it working Fine.!
Point i want to make is,
If you watched, the live Samsung launch of Note 10 ((last year), Microsoft and Samsung
really" laid it on" regarding Microsoft and Samsung working together re Dex . The potential Dex had etc.
Now two big companies, with loads of experience,
cannot get it right.?
it seems to me they have been "working backwards" ?
Dex in General in its present state, errors, not launching etc, is useless for me.

Using Samsung DeX with Macbook and a Tab S4

Hello guys!
Sorry for any wrong word, not Native American here.
Well, researching on internet, I found a Samsung DeX website, where u can download a APP (for Mac) or EXE (for Windows) to use a Dex mode inside a PC screen (or Mac)
Requirements: Android 10 and a Dex capable device.
Tried to install the Dex on Macbook with Catalina OS (install run fine, without asking for Dev Guru thing). Restart the Mac, and the system can't detect the Tablet.
Anyone tried this too? Any clue?
afaik it only works with S-series phones running Android 10.
I have a S10 with the Dex application installed on Win10 : start the program, connect the phone and voila, Dex running.
When connecting my TAB S4 (835), nothing happens ...

Thank you Marcher for the test. Well, let's wait. Maybe someone discover how to crack this or Sammy give us this ability.
Following. I have the same issue. I don’t get the MacBook recognises my Samsung Galaxy Tab Active Pro using Samsung Dex. It does recognise the device using Android File Transfer for instance, instead. I have tried installing and te installing both softwares.
The Samsung Chat Support told me I need to buy the Samsung Dex cable, but as far as I know it is an USB-C to HDMI cable, so the connection would not be so “clean”. Actually I have seen Samsung Dex devices working on MacBooks without such a cable.
It runs Android 9 (it will run Android 10 on September) and I have heard that could be the issue (although I don’t think so).
May we need to use a special cable?

Hello! I tried with the original charger cable, with a second hand cable, with a USB-C to USB-C (MacBook Pro 2018 with 4 USB C ports) and nothing. My TAB runs Android 10. I use the TAB to take notes on meetings and lawyer school, so, the possibility to use on MAC to sync will be great. Tried to use Evernote, Onenote, etc., but the Samsung Notes it's more organized.
I think it's a string thing inside the Dex app. Like on detection, change some string, etc.
Let's wait for Sammt or some XDA "Einstein" to help us.
Samsung support answered me on twitter: the ability to run Samsung DeX on PC it's only for S Series. No plans to run on Tablets. Too bad. Thanks guys! Let's wait if some genius solve this to us!
Cya!
