Wifi Direct - HTC Rezound

I was reading at the website for the Wifi Alliance and they have a listing of all devices that are certified for wifi direct. The Rezound has this certification. Has anybody used this yet? What can be done with wifi direct?

I think that Samsung's Galaxy S3 has this as well and their Samsung Share apps are using wifi direct to share files, photos, and videos from one phone to another. I know they use DLNA to share videos from the phone to the TV.

Connecting Samsung TV (7000) and S3

Dear Folks,
I seen Youtube videos of a S3 displaying photos and video on a Samsung TV. I have a 7000 series Samsung TV and have no idea how to do this.
Can anyone help?
ADC
You should be on the same network with both devices for this to work.
Your Samsung TV should have Allshare, have a look for this with the Smart button on your remote.
Your S3 (Settings>More Setings>Nearby Devices) has a file sharing option, turn it on.
You should see both devices pop up on both displays requested permission to share.
Outside of the same network you need to start creating Samsung accounts on both devices
Thank you - I will try again.
The TV can find the S3 (I9300), but the S3 can't find the TV.
I do have three networks so maybe I'm logged onto the wrong one.
Regards
ADC

Try SWL (Samsung Wireless Link)!
i have es6800 and s3. If you want to connect your s3 with tv for youtube. Go to youtube app at s3, press "add tv", go to tv youtube app and at account/pair you will see code and enter that code at your s3. And u will be paired.
In all honesty all you need to be on the same network as your tv, wired or wireless. Then just go to your gallery and press the tv out button, then the media will come up on the telly. Same for music and videos, you do not need all share, nor do you need wifi direct. That's a load of bull. Just a wifi connection and the ability to share. Which phone have been able to offer you since the desire I believe.

[Q] Allshare cast?

Is Allshare Cast supposed to be available for the SGS3? I can't find it anywhere in the menus. I was hoping to be able to share my phone screen on my tv like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oY-pni6KToc
For anyone else looking for info on this topic I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678135. @aussie2sweden, many believe the dongle may not be necessary if you have a DNLA SmartTV from Samsung, the dongle merely being for TV's without that support. Do you have any support for you comment that the dongle is necessary? I have googled it and find no such supporting documentation.
Update: Samsung site says coming soon http://www.samsung.com/global/galaxys3/feature.html#allsharecast
google it..

Allshare Cast is an addon dongle you need to buy.
You cant use the DLNA in the S3, with your existing DLNA render in your TV.. to mirror your screen..
to mirror your screen like in that video you must purchase either the Allshare Cast Dongle going on sale soon, or a MHL HDMI adaptor..
Has anyone read when the Allshare Cost dongle will be available??

Allshare Cast & Share Shot

Hi,
I just want to understand how Allshare Cast and Share Shot are used. These features are not described fully anywhere. At least, I couldn't find a good source.
My first question is about Screen Sharing with Allshare Cast:
How can I share my S3 screen to other devices ? Which devices support receiving of S3 screen from Allshare Cast ?
Can I share screen of an S3 to another S3 ?
What about Samsung D series TV ? Can we share S3 screen to D series TV ?
the other question is about Share Shot:
I can successfully share shot from one S3 to another S3. The photo taken, goes to the other S3 quickly.
However, one of my colleagues told me that the camera screen could also be shared live to the other S3. Is that possible ? How ?
Thanks.
does anyone have any knowledge about this ?
allshare cast
hi
allshare cast is for a new samsung dongle like apples airplay
its a little gadget that have hdmi out to put in tv
you pair your phone with it and then you can stream sound/pictures/video
up to 1080p
allshare shot is what i think a way of sharing photos to allshare capable devices
like phones and tablets
spillyft
yes I know that but allshare cast works on new generation Samsung TVs without a need for any dongle.
I just wonder if it would be possible to do it on older TV ?
As i know its from gen8 tv and up
Spillyft
I am currently waiting for my AllShare Cast Dongle (will be out end of August over here in Asia as per supplier).
You can use the AllShare Cast Dongle, as I understood, with any TV with HDMI in and it will support in addition to the usual Photo & Video sharing via e.g. your Samsung Smart TV also screen mirroring. (see also: http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/03/allshare-cast-wireless-streaming-dongle-samsung-galaxy-s-iii/).
Allshare works with my WDTV Live, not with Netgear Entertainer though.

As far as I know this is only possible with the AllShare Cast Dongle
it's too bad that older generation TVs do not support Allshare Cast / Allshare Play.
Especially when D series is just model of 2011.
what about sharing screen between 2 S3 ?

Allshare Cast is a program that will run on the phone and push the screen of the phone to Samsung SmartTV's when it's released. The dongle is a separate piece of hardware used for non-Samsung tv's to do the same thing. Since I can't post links yet Samsung's global page shows how they both work and the Allshare Cast is listed as "Will be available soon."
anything new about this ?

[Q] screen mirroring to a laptop using wifi direct or dlna?

hi folks
as the title says im after screen mirroring my s3 to my laptop it is equipped with dlna already or maybe wifi direct if its possible! according to what i read on the net it is possible to mirror s3's screen to a pc using dlna but i have no luck yet! when i scan with allshare app it does see my laptop i registered it with allshare play it sees it as an active online pc but refuses to stream music, pictures or video let alone screen mirroring!. do you think i should download a dlna server app? if so which is the best one? coz i have downloaded one called tvtrivia or something but it didnt help..
im from UK so i have the international version of s3 with original stock samsung rom on.
i have gone thru the forums but i didnt not come cross any thread about this apart from one that is about allshare cast which involves an extra hardware!
im very surprised though as i thought many people would be interested in screen mirroring!
what do you guys think about screen mirroring? anyone have made any research about this or even tried? what is your experience?
bump, also interested in this
yep - and me!
Airdroid can do basic screen mirroring but it runs at a low fps rate of ~1fps. MirrorOP is also the same I presume. I wish the was a solution for this using wifi, widi or even usb connection. That way I can easily play games with my phone as a remote or as a wheel substitute in teaching games lol.

I use MirrorOp and works well. The frame rate is high and videos work well through it. The sender app costs $9.99 (~£6.43) for unlimited use.

[Q] Allshare cast without dongle

Hello, I have samsung i9300 s3 , n8000 note 10.1 and samsung smart tv 55es8000.In addition I don't have allshare cast dongle.
I can sync between TV and s3,note 10.1 (allshare play, it works)
But, allshare cast doesn't work. İf TV Samsung smart tv ,alshare cast dongle which costs 100 $ still necessary?
Don't read specs of your tv, but the es5700 does not support all share cast. So check your rv specs. If not supported you need the dongle.
Also maybe interesting: I read in other forum that the i9300 will only display 720p with the dongle due to ram limitation. That came directly from samsung support. Actually note2 and s3lte should be the only devices playing full hd with the dongle.
Maybe samsung already changed this behaviour via firmware... dont know

hmm.. read a bit in other forums... seems that even samsung gives different answers.
Actually it seems that all tv's don't support all net cast without dongle.
But if you tv has wifi n standart and it could be that samsung sometimes enables all share cast on your tv via update.
Haven't found anybody who get all share cast working without donge. even on samsung top models.
I guess they simply haven't activated this feature until today.
The "alowed shared devices" are those devices that alre allowed to stream videos via all share play to you tv.
The difference is that all share cast, completely clone your desktop to tv, while all net play just send the media you're watching like video, photo etc. Check your default video player while watching video. You'll habe a "share symbol" on the uper right corner.
Press it and you stream the video to your tv.
Hope samsung will activate the all share cast on tv that support wifi n
