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.

I'm having a similar problem I see the device, it connects for a few seconds, my tv screen flickers and disconnects immeditately.
what model of Smart TV you have? I dont see my TV on the list at all...
And what country ? ( I think is related on country, from the answer of Samsung Romania support...)

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.

I tried it last sat on un65d8000 model. All share play worked, which just sends movies, but all share case, did not.
Software apparently needs work...

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 ?
You can now mirror your screen when using a Chromecast with the Note 3 running 4.4.2. Go into Settings >More Settings >Screen Mirroring to enable screen casting through your Chromecast. You can also cast directly from the Chromecast app if screen mirroring doesn't work.

I must be doing something wrong because I can't get it to cast...

Figured it out. Even though the app said it was updated today it was not the latest version. I side loaded the latest version and it works. It is too choppy though.

It's working fine through the Chomecast app for me. I haven't tried any games but everything else is smooth including 1080p videos that were recorded on my phone.
I can get it to mirror my screen through the Chromecast (not through settings) but I get no sound. How do I get sound.
Note: My chromecast is plugged into my Onkyo receiver, does that make a difference?

Probably so. I have screen mirroring working thru the Chromecast app as well and it does audio just fine. Might be something going on with that receiver. Can you remove it and try just a direct connect to the Chromecast on the TV? Haven't tried thru the Settings way.

Turns out that power cycling the Chromecast solved the problem. I now get sound.
Reboot of Chomecast worked for me to get sound working. Also games look great!
I see no option to Mirror in the Chromecast app. It says I have the latest version.

Be cautious with games. My phone shut down several services and a warning screen appeared stating my phone was too hot.
Does that mirroring work directly from chromecast to phone or do you still need a wifi network to connect them both to?

You still need to use Wi-Fi.
I'm on Android 4.3, Beanstown build 6, so I can't screen cast Is there an update path I can take (possibly new ROM) that will get me 4.4 and the ability to use this new feature? (I have Chromecast app ver 1.7.4)
Could people who have it working SMOOTHLY (to me not smoothly = not working) at 1080p please post the wifi setup they are using? (Router/AP model and 2.4 or 5ghz, is it in the same room, other devices connected, port forwarding or QoS or other router config, or anything else noteworthy)
I haven't touched my chromecast in 3 months because it basically didn't work for anything I wanted to do (main thing is playing photos/videos shot with camera on a bigger screen). Back then I was using a wired router and a Asus EAN66 as wifi AP (box-claim speed of 450 mbps) sitting within 10 feet of both phone and TV/Chromecast in the same room but it was horrible - I was lucky to get maybe 20 seconds of smooth video max. Then it would crash. Much faster to transfer files to computer via usb3 or sdcard then play on TV. Similar story on a Linksys E1000 but I forget which was worse.
True smooth 1080p screen mirroring... that would be nice. Truly something that would wow people. I now have Netgear R7000 (model name "Overkill") and it's 5 feet from the TV so it really better work now! I'll report tomorrow when I can mess with it.
I had it working smoothly. First I had to update to most recent chromecast app from google play in US, then once I tried screen mirroring option in the app, it would connect to my chromecast but show nothing. After doing this the chromecast then wanted to reboot and update itself to a later software build. While it rebooted rebooted note 3 and laoded up the chromecast app, option was there to mirror to tv so I chose it and it worked flawlessly and smooth even playing games. I was using stock android TW 4.4.2 and played trials frontier. I have a netgear WNDR 3700 V1 router using 54g (2.4) to connect phone and chromecast to. The tv was like 1ms behind what was displayed on phone but still worked flawlessly. I had my phone power saving mode on and cpu power saving checked. Even with this power saving it worked great for web browsing, videos, and games. Phone did get hot and battery drained quickly! I also use WPA 2 encryption and security!

I was running CleanRom with 4.3, and swithched to BajaRom so I could use my chromecast screenmirroring. Baja is 4.4.2 snd it worked flawlessly. Problem for me is, I dont like Baja. Im gonna go back to CleanRom 4.3 jellybean. The trade just isnt worth it for me.
Hope that helps ya.
Hey Guys,
Im using a tab pro 12.2 and running stock rooted deodexed, and Im wondering if I buy the chromecast dongle - will I be able to mirror my device straight to the screen (I want to mirror custom videos not through youtube etc) with mxplayer pro. My TV doesnt have any sort of wifi, but it does have a hdmi slot - hence going with chromecast.
Pixel
Yes there are ways to do this
The TV doesn't need WiFi, just your home and device (tablet, phone, PC)
I can only cast screen natively from my nexus devices or PC but there are apps that allow for this
Check the Chromecast threads for more info
Oh, and the best $35 I ever spent, over a year now and still use it daily
Ok thanks, didnt realise there was a specific chromecast forums
I apologize if this has been covered elsewhere but I recently upgraded my my Chromecast generation 1 to Generation 2 and my ability to cast my cell phone screen to my chromecast from my galaxy s6 has stopped.. it just says connecting and times out.. All apps with native chromecast support work as they should.. Only when I use the cast screen feature from within the chromecast app does this problem occur... Does anyone possibly have any idea on what could be causing this to happen?
Thank you in advance!
I'll have to test this for myself but casting the screen to my Chromecast 2 from my N7 2013 just stopped working all of a sudden the other day. It'll connect and then freeze up within a couple of seconds.
Will try to cast a specific program like YouTube tomorrow and see what it behaves like.
Same problem for me, in the beginning it worked fine, but after the automatic update it started to do problems with the mirror cast and the Google photos.
In the others app it is working good
I so that this is a common problem with the chromecast 2, in alot of phone models

I have almost the same problem, just purchased my chromecast. Everything works except the ability to cast my screen from withing Tablet using CyanogenMod using the Cast Screen option.
When I try it it goes through the process show the device found shows connected then instantly show disconnected. Works on my One Plus One running CM based ROM just fine. So it could be ROM version....
Since its a tablet have to use android Chrome so can't use extensions on it because the extension for Chrome Cast work on my laptop to do a cast screen.
Same problem here using slimkat rom
Updated the tablet to CM12.1 not same ROM but same version as my phone ROM made no difference. Also tried 2.4 and 5 GHz still no go from tablet. Interestingly annoying....

i haves same problem in a lg g stylo i update android 6.0 now wrok fine
Just happened on an HTC M8 too. Everything was OK until now. I have it from December and was working on Android 5 and even on Android 6 until yesterday. Tried to reset it hard from button and soft, reconfigure it and happens the same issue: phone find it and when try to connect screen goes black on TV like trying to receive an image, then disconnects back to backdrop. On the phone sometimes the wifi disconnects from the router and reconnects back when Chromecast is trying to transmit the image on TV. I checked the compatibility phones on page and indeed M8 is not there, but it worked, so is not that.
There is any possibility to take an log on the Chromecast to see what is happening?
Sent from my HTC One_M8
Edit: Seems that the issue was the installation of the Viper4Android flashable zip. After replacing system image from twrp backup, everything is back to normal. It connects in no time.
What version of android do your phone use?
I use Galaxy Note 3 android 5.0 with Chromecast app to cast screen to TV attached with Chromecast 2015 device.
There is no default option for casting screen on android 5.0.
So I use Chromecast app to cast screen.
Everything is normal. I can cast phone screen to TV while I'm playing Asphalt 8.
I have switched phones to the Nexus 6P and for the first few months I was able to cast to screen again but now I lost that ability after experimenting with different roms.. yet I can still go to my friends house and cast my screen without any issues on his 1st gen chromecast.. what a strange issue
I switched back to the 1st chromecast, the new one would start overheating lol
Hi,
Was using a USB C to HDMI wired mirror screening dongle with LG V20 earlier without any issue but even though Poco F1 plays USB DAC and other storage devices normally mirroring doesn't work at all. Is dongle not compatible or Miui issue? Anyone using a mirroring dongle successfully then pls link it.

I've read a couple of threads on here and one on Mi forums where people have found the same. I'm hoping it will be added in a software update. Meanwhile it casts to Chromecast natively (not what you're asking for, but something)

Yeah looks like one of those things that Xiaomi thinks doesn't matter to include. Also, I see 'wireless display' in settings on Poco but doesn't mention what kind. So my extended question is does it support Miracast/DLNA?

The "wireless display" function initiates Chromecast screen cast. It might do Miracast as well but I don't have a dongle to test
Found that OP5 has same issue and they found a solution https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/themes/wired-tv-one-plus-5-makes-displaylink-t3667974 though it's more expensive than a Chromecast/Miracast. I miss my LG now.
My Poco F1 also not connecting to MI Android TV through Miracast

I think that I read somewhere that it is Google which has made the change in Pie so that only Chromecast will connect. May be an earlier version of android will help.
Hi! I don't want to start another thread, so I'll describe my issue here.
I have last MIUI 10.3.8.0 and I have problems with screen mirroring. Previous MIUI I used to connect my phone to my Samsung TV and it worked as a charm. Yesterday i tried to connect again, but i didn't manage to connect. Have anyone the same problem? Is there a fix for this? Thanks in advance.

Did u find a solution bro? I'm facing same issue.
Yes, I did hard reset and all is OK now.
Hi you all probably figured this out already but it seems that screen mirroring native miracast is broken on most recent xiaomi phone models since they were updated. I have a Redmi Note 5 (Whyred), a mi max 2 and a mi max 3. Only the Max 2 works normally. The other models can cast using apps that cast like Prime Video, VLC etc but can't simply mirror whatever is on the screen. The Miui forums are full of such reports. No response from Xiaomi and no viable workaround. I was already reluctant to upgrade because Id been waiting for MHL hardwired video out to be implemented and it never was (Id pay a premium fot a xiaomi phone that had it). I saw a couple of XDA threads where folks got mirroring to work via custom roms and my phone is rooted but I am uncertain which rom might accomplish this fix for my particular model.
These are my last Xiaomi phones unless I see something official from them about a solution for this known problem. Mirroring is anessential for me not just for entertainment but for work.
Hi I finally solved the problem of screen cast
first (turn on Bluetooth and WiFi )
Then enable the Screen mirroring on the TV
Then connect the WiFi to the TV
Enable Screen cast on phone and search and connect to TV

Poco X3 is not able to Cast screen by using Wireless Display or Google Home App with Google Chromecast. Need solution.
I don't know whether this might help anyone else but I had disabled miconnect package on my Xiaomi devices. when I re-enabled miconnect service and uniplay service, Chromecast started working again (I am not sure why miconnect should matter ... it isn't supposed to be related to non xiaomi devices, but it is something else to try if you disabled it too).
