Allshare-Cast - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

It' working very vell, I'am mirroring from my sgs3 via allshare cast dongle to an old b7000 samsung TV, also works without problems with an LG TV. My note 10.1 mirrors as well, so stop telling BS it's working.

you have stock firmware? rooted? and btw have u tried to mirror from s3 to smart tv without dongle?

Stock firmware on both devices, no root(not needed for now), allshare cast was later added through an update, note 10.1 worked out of the box. Yes, I've tried this also with an ue55es8000.
BTW there's an update called allshare cast dongle sw update im play store, I' managed to find it in myapps/all on the bottom.

AW: Allshare-Cast
No dongle on my main TV (sorry dongle was connected all the time) but had to pull the lan cord to get a wifi connection(this was for the smart view app), hope they correct this in the next firmware.
LH2 on the note 10.1, LH1 on the sgs3. Tv dunno I'am not at home.
Sorry for for the confusion! Mirroring was accomplished with the dongle. Will try without when at home.

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.

TV on android without internet.

Hey Guys I was just thinking you know those androids from China that let you watch TV without internet. I was thinking what if I took the apk file from that android and installed it on a normal android.
Well I tryed it out but it forced closed on me. So I was thinking maybe some on can make it work. So here's the apk. Its a 4shared link.www.4shared.com/android/ji5Izn6_/MtvPlayer.html Maybe you can make it work

this is almost definitely 100% the case. The same thing happens with FM radio apps on phones without FM radio hardware.
For sure this is the case. How can you watch TV on a device which havent a tv tuner hardware?
Dlna.. Uses wifi to pass video /audio to or from your device..
Watch videos from your phone on your pc or anything else connected to your router via lan or wifi.
Tv etc needs to support the function tho

There is an app in google playstore that can detect waves and also fm.
So, u can hear fm radio.
But you need an OTG usb host as antenna.

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.

Mirror screen (display) from S3 to Smart TV ONLY with wi-fi (wireless)

Hello there,
I am still looking how to mirror the screen of my S3, by mirror I mean to see what I am doing on my S3, not to stream videos, music or pictures..
For example if I play NOVA, I`d like to see on my Smart TV.
So we do have a Smart TV with wifi (wireless) incorporated, my model D6530 (D6500 series), but I cant find the option to mirror screen.
Is there a trick ??? Can somebody find out or make a software to do this..
Hardware both is all ok and accepted, only SW is missing or hide.
Thanks
Even I am looking for the same. But no luck yet.
There is a discussion on this thread about screen cast (screen replication on TV) : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678135
Looks like its not yet released and will be available in late summer as per facebook sweden update (as per some user's comment in one of the threads)
With All share play app already available you can stream content(video/photos/music) to TV (same as other DLNA apps like iMediaShare).
The only part lacking and I am desperate is AllShare Cast app.
I thought you needed the dangle for all share cast to work? I its not cheap. Hope I'm wrong I've got a dlna Samsung 5series smart tv and use dlna all the time for porn Ammm I mean video viewing and it's great smooth and fast ^o^

Looking for the same too. This what I found so far.
Google for xbounds.
If you got another android that can hook up to tv, you can install MirrorOp apps. Works well but framerate is limited.

I dont need the dongle to carry all ****s with me, I already have a Smart TV with wifi.. dongle is for normal TV without wifi
Hope they will do something about this
yeah, dont really understand why this isnt already possible, the hardware is there, at present you'll just have to manage with your hdmi which makes gaming pretty much impossible comfortably.
This is probably my only gripe with this phone and my last the sgs2.

NOTE: I think allshare only works with the 7000 / 8000 varieties, this was suggested in the sgs2 threads on the subject. I used to have an sgs2 but there was never an option to cast your phone screen without HDMI connection, have to wonder if this option is on the SGS3 at all.

After receiving the latest firmware update on my phone, it finally shows "AllShare Cast" as an option in settings. Unfortunately, it can not detect the UN60ES7500 I have on display in the showroom (or the PN51E8000), nor the BDE5700 and BDE6500 Blu-Ray players. Nothing shows as a "detected device". I just upgraded the firmware on the UN60ES7500 and no change. I tried connecting via our Wi-Fi network, as well as using "WiFi Direct"...still no dice.
Additionally, the "LiveView" Android app apparently isn't compatible with the Galaxy S III either...so no streaming video from the TV BACK to the phone either...grrr.
Samsung needs some software help, pronto!
@jnemesh
same for me what firmware on S3 you tested ?
Allshare Cast doesnt work yet but already has issues
Salut
I have a 7000 series smart tv + WiFi dongle. I can confirm that Allshare plays photos, music & videos from S3 to tv, but Allshare Cast is not working. also there is PIA bug with Allshare Cast on S3 running latest v.17 Omega rom, when disabled from settings it also disables WiFi Anyone saw this issue? The only option to get rid of that it could be re-flashing the Omega rom without the Allshare Cast.:silly:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7p6nOAcSUsE
so that isn't working now even if you have the dongle and a s3?
:/ did they disable the feature?
this is what i'm trying to figure out ..if you have a smart tv that can stream videos via allshare just fine..then shouldnt hardware wise you have all you need for allshare-cast to work too??
i have a UA46ES6200 and my s3 can not detect it when scanning for allshare-cast devices ...but allshare play is working just fine
but i want screen mirroring :/
this is really annoying, Samsung ever read here ?
or how we can get feedback on this..
I bought S3 for this option (like in commercials), otherwise I would stick with my S1 and S2..
Somebody managed to mirror screen without dongle ?

Stream movies from Phone to Samsung TV wireless? (How to)

Hi guys, just bought a Samsung smart TV and I wanted to know if and how could I stream movies from my phone to the TV Wireless.
I'm currently running Cm9. If there is an app required can someone upload it please.. thanks
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
You need all share to stream stuff on your smart tv. I don't know if all share works with CM9 though. All share is included in the stock Rom, so maybe if you ask somebody he/she will extract it for you do you can try it on CM9
it works on stock
Dont know about CM9, but with the stock rom, you just need to make sure your TV and Phone are connected to the same wifi and then you play your file on your phone. A symbol at the top of the stock player shows a 'choose your player' dialogues and then you choose your TV. Its starts playing either instantly or with a prompt on your tv, depending on your tv setup. I have mine set to auto accept. Works with photos and videos. I have tried with 1080p movies and it works without a problem.
Tv is LG LM670T. 3d smart. its gorgeous
I think most recently manufactured tv hs dlna.
Just search your tv model on Internet then you should be able to find out.
If so, then download bubbleupnp app from play store. You can either set up another server on your computer, which I do, using plex server, which you can download for free for your pc. Or you can use your phone as the server as well.
You can control all the streaming from your pc to your tv or phone to tv right from the bubbleupnp app. Very cool. If you install the extra bubbleupnp server on your computer, you can even stream remotely. Very easy to set up and very cool. Real cool.

If I understand well, you have two options: (1) stock Samsung rom and AllShare Cast (it needs Samsung framework, hence CM will not work) or (2) use DLNA (check if your TV supports it, but I guess so) and one of the apps mentioned above (which will also work in CM as it should support DLNA).

Miracast or wireless display.

As TEGRA 3 supports Miracast I was wondering how to use it with the prime. Any ideas?
And also, is there any other good way to stream the prime's display directly to a TV, wireless.

This forum is getting dead. good questions going on unanswered..
the prime comes with anynet by asus that does exactly this.
Sv: Miracast or wireless display.
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.
All u need is a netgear ptv3000 device hooked onto yout tv that will wirelessly connect with your tablet.

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.
