Hello.
Can I get more out of my devices by connecting them together by WiFi?
The TV is a 60inch Sharp LC-60.
The Aquos Net+ has WiFi and is able to connect to a PC using a home server option.
Can I not just connect my phone to my TV using WiFi?
Not sure if this helps but the Z2 supports miracast. If you TV supports miracast then you can mirror your phone to your TV.
you can, I'm using this everyday. Well you can if your TV supports DLNA.
I'm casting almost everything from my phone to the TV with the app AllCast.
Also, if you have a Chromecast you can cast youtube and spotify from your phone.

Yes, but not yet on Xperia...
Edit: in fact it works with a hack found here on this forum!!!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/hardware-hacking/chromecast/experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193
And it works great!!!

Please advice from your experience:
I search for a resonabely priced LED/LCD TV (32", 100hz full-hd, DLNA) supporing my SGS2's all-share, via wifi or wifi dongle.
Please recommend.
Which wifi USB dongle should be used with such a TV?
Which video formats are supported (via DLNA)?
Thanks

hi,
I have samsung 40C6820 in my home.
ITs connected with wire to my adsl modem and sgs2 via wifi.I am not using a wifi dongle and its working perfect.
I can play most of the video from phone on tv. It depends on your tv which video formats you can play.
Also there is a program samssung remote which you can control tv with sgs2 like a remote controller over wifi ie. from other room you can volume up or down. etc..
Thanks
Since the TVs in my home do not support DLNA; I did decide to go with the LG-ST600 Smart TV Upgrader (see: http://www.techradar.com/reviews/au...ries/lg-st600-smart-tv-upgrader-958975/review)
regards
I guess every TV with DLNA works. Mine Samsung 6700 (46" LED) is working perfectly - it's connected via cable to my home network. And if you buy a Samsung TV there is a remote control app available via the Samsung market -my girlfriend got a bit crazy when I played with it :-D

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

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).
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.

Is your vizio connected to LAN or WiFi?

If the device is DLNA compatible then use Skifta. I find it far easier.

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.

Ah, ok that's a bit sad then.
About the dongle. if I have one, my tv doesn't need dlna. Right? Also do you know if the prime/tablet will send data to the dongle constantly or are you able to decide when to do that?

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.

Yeah, mirroring will eliminate my need of dlna. The Samsung all share is a Great solution though it only works with samsung products as you need the all share framework. And I dont think you can get around that.

My friend just discovered this feature. He was able to push photos he was viewing on his s3 phone to his Panasonic plasma TV wirelessly. So the underlying protocol that Samsung uses must work with other manufactures.

Yes sir.
This feature is called dlna. S3 has allshare play that is dlna.
Can your friend play a game on s3 and u watch his screen play on tv? That is screen mirroring.

Yes it does work with other manufacturers but right now you'll need a samsung device which is running a Sammy rom to use the allshare app. Though dlna is a really nice feature

No Chromecast here. Have an apple tv. My tv is an LG 60lm7200. I cannot find a way to wirelessly mirror my phone screen to my TV. Any ideas?
Your lg tv may be miracast ready or there may be a software upgrade to support it. if it does support miracast then all you need to do is go to settings\share &connect\Miracast set to on and search and connect.
if it is not miracast ready you can buy a miracast dongle from amazon and such.
AllCast from clockwork mod in playstore will let you send videos and pics to your airplay device (appletv) but miracast will allow you to send your entire desktop.
I would go down the miracast route.
Tv is not miracast capable, smart share app is a place holder. All cast is only local files correct? Looking for live mirroring

I edited my previous post.
you could go the hardware method using a cable with an hdmi out called a slimport adapter.
We have been having great success and a lot of fun mirroring the G3 to the audio receiver and then on out to the TV via a Chromecast on HDMI.
Popcorn Time !
When I tried that on my Nexus5 it did great for a while then got hot and stopped. No such problem with the G3, strangely.

I can screencast movies, BBC iPlayer etc to my TV using a Microsoft Display Adaper OK. But Amazon Prime Video will not screencast from the M20 Pro. I can also screencast Amazon Prime Video from a Samsung tablet and my laptop but not from my new M20 Pro.
Huawei Support could only suggest it was a fault with the app and to contact the app developers.
Can anyone offer some help please?

Hi and thanks for the reply. I first used a Chromecast but my internet is unreliable and whilst watching a movie the connection would drop 5 or 6 times so I started using the Microsoft Display Adapter which works directly from device to device without using a router. And I’ve had very few connection problems with it except that Samsung devices using Android higher than version 4 will not screencast.
Thanks
John
