So freaking sweet ! Thanks for sharing the info!
Finally, I can go take a dump during a football-game!
Amazing app! Thanks for sharing. Works great with my 8000 series TV
Great App!
cool app. works great! bought a samsung tv JUST to be able to do this.
anyone know if the tv can be turned off and still transmit to the Tab?
I'm pretty sure I did that on mine (by accident) the other night.

You can't turn it fully off, but you can put it in a hybernate-state
While watching the tv-image on your tab, there's a button (third from the left, I believe?) that does this
Is there a way to stream wirelessly from tab to tv? Will be good for gaming.
Trying to spread the word. We are trying to get this app working for all android devices.

TV is probably not compatible.
I think, if it was compatible, there would be an option on your TV.
My TV (PN59D8000) is compatible but the dual display option doesnt work for me either. It just errors and says "cannot start multi-display". Any ideas?

Uninstall and reinstall smart view tab app. Check your internet connection and ensure both tv and tab 10.1 are connected to same router.
This is a sweet app!
Any chance it could work with the Tab NOT being on the same Network?

I was curious to find out how the hdmi works with our phones so when I went to the sprint store the get my defender case swapped out for a commuter case, I asked about it. Basically DLNA(Digital Living Network Alliance) allows for a person to easily share their videos, music, and photos. I never knew our phones had this feature, so I download the "Double Twist" player app(its free) and "Air Sync" (its not free, you can figure out which way you want to get it) and when you open double twist, go to settings>air twist & air play and check the box next to it. Now if you have an internet cable tv, xbox 360, or ps3, you can stream and mirror your movies on their with NOOOO LAG!!!!!! You can also view your pics and stream your music as well. I love this feature. I thought I'd share.
Doesn't the phones "Media Share" application do the same thing?
Or are these programs better than that?

It's just a preference. With double twist you use it as a media player also on the go. Being able to share media is a big plus and that's what matters.
Sorry if I was unclear. What I mean by "what's on the device" is complete mirroring. (being able to see everything that is being done on the device)
I would like to be able to do that over some sort of wireless connection to my TV.

The EVO3D does do full mirroring.
Maybe not over DLNA but it does over HDMI.

Really?!?! You just made my day.
If you don't have an Evo 3D, well you don't have an Evo 3D.
DLNA doesn't give mirroring. Think of it more like turning your phone into a media server. It doesn't play the media on the server, but rather is just a host so your other devices can stream the media to them.
I've used DLNA already quite a bit through my ASUS O!Play HD2. There is a little bit of delay in starting the media, but everything streams smooth once it starts.
Anyone know how to do this with a Samsung TV with All Share? I spent some time last night but couldn't get it to work. My TV can't see my phone and vice versa. But my laptop can see my phone and play its content.
Anyone know if this is possible using a Wii?

Yes, I had a Samsung led 3D, swapped it for an LG passive 3D. Go into the media share app while connected to WiFi and check the box to share your media. Check music, pics, and videos. Now go to "set shared folders" and pick the folders off your EVO 3D you want to share. While on all share on the t.v. while connected to.the same network it will find your phone. If not, don't use the all share app on t.v. just go to the media play app and it will be there. Or. On phone go to connected devices app, choose the media you want to share and then your t.v. and it will play if its supported content.

I've got a hd ready tv, it's got a usb port at the back, but thats for services only, it's not a smart tv and I havent got DNLA....
Either buy a smart Blu-ray player or wait a few weeks for the Allshare cast dongle.
i posted in another thread, but I use the allshare cast on my tv/phone, or at least try to. The app on my tv freezes when trying to enter music or video folder. what gives?
Works perfectly for me, wireless to the tv and wireless to the SGS3.
Even use the SGS3 instead of my remote too.

hey guys can this work without the need for the ead-t10jdegsta all-share cast hub/ dongle ?
using a s3, and UA46ES6200MXRD smammy smart tv.
the all share stuff works awesome, if i'm in the default video player, can easily throw the video to the tv ...
but what about the screen mirror function?
ie http://youtu.be/7p6nOAcSUsE
i have a nfl game pass subscripton, and this is the easiest way to get it on my tv as far as i can tell ...if it works.
the allshare cast option on my s3 doesn't find my tv when it scans .... so i'm thinking maybe only the series 7 and up tv's actually do it with out the dongle.
but man ... if thats the case ...is it mearly samsung holding it back to sell more dongles or tv's?
i mean if i can send 1080p video to the tv via all share ...then why not screen mirror /allshare-cast?
wonder if there is a non official app on the market somewhere
same shiit here,i have 40es6800 tv and cant connect with my s3 via allshare cast. Maybe it is needed allshare cast dongle or maybe it is bugged ^^
I read somewhere that screen mirror via normal all share cast is not supported, only with the dongle whereas I am not sure if this is 100% true. (just got a normal Samsung TV and waiting for my dongle to be delivered)

as i heard that dongle is needed for non smart tv which doesnt have wifi direct, my tv has wifi-direct+wifi integrated adapter and still it doesnt work. Maybe sammy doesnt released atm firmware with that feature enabled
yeah from what im reading even the screen mirror (allshare-cast) isn't working via the dongle either ...which is a bit of false advertising imo if the case, all it does is provide wifi for non-smart tv's ?
wonder if it's a rights thing? i see they removed tv->cell screen mirroring from the samsung smartview app ...as in removed functionality what WAS working ... hmmmmm

The TV's need an software firmware upgrade which Samsung is working on.
Samsung advise that the option to use your S3 as dongle is still in development - they cannot give me any time frame. I think they are trying to get people to buy the dongle just in case this works with all DLNA / wifi enabled TVs, if it does they wont sell out as many dongles when the app come out.
I say this as I cant see any reason why it would still be in development, it was "coming soon" months ago and cant be that difficult to get working if the dongle has the same tech / protocols, should just be an app port at most.

Dongle is required for all TV's at the moment, Samsung havent yet enabled it properly for use with WIFI tv's, Samsung or otherwise. If you want to mirror now you will need the dongle and be using stock ROM.

And also, is there any other good way to stream the prime's display directly to a TV, wireless.

the prime comes with anynet by asus that does exactly this.

Well, how to you play to something then? Because I can only seem to play to my Prime. There is a play to button, but the only alternative is the tf201. And also that wouldn't share the screen to a tv, or would it?

both devices need to be on the same network for starters. My samsung plasma needed to agree to the connection first and that was somewhere in the tv settings then it showed up as an option in the play to menu. My new Vizio does not come with that functionality though. I does however still play the files from my prime using its own menu as I have enabled the sharing of media files wehn the mynet software came up asking for permission. So there are a couple of ways the connection can be made to play your media on your tv from your prime.

There is a lot of difference between dlna and miracast.
Dlna = Prime can share files that other devices can see and play...
Miracast = mirroring what u see on prime to any tv.
With miracast, u can Play games like temple run by watching your tv, but still swiping on ur tablet.
To op's qn...Miracst will be supported with 4.2 android version.. i think statement has been made by nvidia as well confirming this for tegra 3. Google.

Prime does not support miracast yet , so dont know.
Samsungs allshare cast works damn nice for screen mirroring. You can pair the dongle with the tablet and start stop mirroring anytime you like. I have a note 10.1 tablet and galaxy s3, and I mirror them both on tv to play games watch movies.
Dlna is different than miracast... once I can mirror, I dont think u will need dlna that much.
I am banking that samsung allshare cast, miracast and intel widi will all merge into one protocol, and it would be lovely then.

I sideloaded the latest version of the Xfinity TV app version 3.1.0.014
The app does not support proper navigation with android tv remote as it is intended to be used on a touch interface.
You can however connect a mouse via USB OTG and use the app. I have watched around an hour of TV on the app and did not have any major issues.
It is a little buggy at times exiting and re-entering the app and I have had a force close but it is usable.
Once they update for Android TV support I will be very happy. (I am hoping they update for Android TV support. I haven't found any information to say they are for sure.)

Comcast released another app update today. Hopefully it didn't break things for you, let me know how it goes, I am thinking about getting a Nexus Player for this app. I doubt they will ever support Android TV, they would be losing $10 per month from folks who are currently renting their own comcast boxes for additional TVs.

has anyone figured out why the Xfinity TV app closes or how to fix this I have the newest version installed on my nexus player and on my nvidia shield and on both devices the app closes after about 10 minutes of watching a live or on demand show and goes back to the Home screen? On my fire stick the app doesn't close but I get other playback error on live channels. The TV to Go app works 100% on my correctly it never closes but it lacks a channel guide and DVR abilities so I would rather use the X1 TV app instead. any suggestions on how to get the app to stop closing back to the home screen?
as a side note for those trying to find a controller solution, I use a QQ-Tech Mini Bluetooth Keyboard W Touch pad for Android OS Windows from Amazon for about 20 bucks. I use this for all 3 of my boxes to control the Xfinity TV and TV to Go apps it works grate its about 7 inches long so about the size of a TV remote. mine is rechargeable with a light up keyboard. this will also make using Chrome and other sideloaded apps on Android TV so much easier to use.
I watched it the other day for like 2 hours and didnt have 1 issue, are you on the latest firmware on your nexus player? Also has anyone tried the update that came out today?

I've got Pure Nexus running and i am having no issues with the Xfinity Go App with a Keyboard/Mouse works somewhat with the remote besides selecting anything, can only use the nexus remote as a glorified browser can go up and down left and right and back.

Understood, i refuse to get X1 because right now i pay 80 Bucks for 150 Channels + HBO and 75Megabit Internet. I don't need a DVR made by them, nor do i need anything else they deem fancy. I wouldn't have Comcast at all if i could have the option, but they are the fastest within 100 feet of my location. Lot of OTA DVR Options Exist, some are like 10-15 Years Old. (The PSX Console was a PS2 with built in DVR if that says anything). i Have a hacked Roamio i use to record stuff.

Awesome, i can confirm it does work on stock, for some reason i never tried on stock, i am now going to root it to see if droidmote works as a remote for it.
Edit: droidmote works as a mouse, but the remote functions do not work inside the xfinity app

The Xfinity TV app (not TV Go) works, but sometimes looses track of the "Home" network.
We are using a friend's login info to test it- Our 2 NP's both have M 6.0.
It will not work out of the box hardwired for channels you have not viewed before- i.e on your "previously viewed channels" list, prompts you to use your cellular data connection, but has an "allow just this time" link that will let it through a LAN.
Seems the TV (not TV Go) app keeps track of the WiFi connections and designates one a "Home".
I have renamed my 2 access points the same name, with same SSID and passwords- it worked great for a day, then started locking me out of new channels.
ES FileExplorer lets you ftp into the NP with the LAN---> Remote Manager, so I will be copying the X-TV data over and see if that works.
As a side note- I will be testing the TV Go app found here:

I found this Rii that works quite well for the NP in general, and the trackpad seems very good to me, especially double-tap, hold and swipe.

I wanted a 2.4 ghz romo, because I read many comments about BT sleeping issues.
The rest of my setup has this hub-

and this UBS to RJ-45 adapter.

All work with the NP
**Edit**
Sytanek's app mod at the link above works excellent on our stock NP with M 6.0.1
Can anyone confirm the apps still work on our NPs as of today?
I am moving and the place I am heading to doesn't have other options but Comcast... this would be great in cutting some of those "rental fees" on additional cable boxes.
I can't get Xfinity TV to work on my Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 with cyan 13.0....just buffers then returns
I need little help here. I installed the app and when i click get started it redirects to dolphin browser and when i log in i get some error message. I can't get this app working.
