Hi, is the mirroring function working for u guys? When I press the cast screen button, the device will try to connect and disconnect immediately. Rebooted chromecast and my wifi, not helping. No problem with casting YouTube though..

Is your bootloader unlocked? I'm pretty sure that is what broke mine.
Edit....mirroring is broken for me in quick settings, can't remember if it works from cc app.
It's locked. Am on stock. 118. Only rooted..

The z ultra is listed as working in op of this mod, may be worth a look.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/har...experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193
Well.. I tried that. It's a earlier development and it's a closed thread now as Google enable it on many device after some kk version i think.

Hello. I am having trouble getting netflix subtitles shown on my TV through HDMI. I get the image and sound perfectly, but the subtitles are displayed on the blackened TP display!
Is there a way to display them on the TV screen? This was a feature I was looking forward to.
Thanks for your help..
I am having the same problem too. Anyone know how to fix it?
Apparently HDMI specifications do not include handling of subtitles or closed caption..
Is this on HC or ICS? I'm still on HC and will try it at home if I have the same issue.

This is on ICS.. Thanks!
Same problem, I have tested this in my prime with ICS and in a acer iconia a500 with Honeycomb, same problem in both... there should be a fix but I think that the app needs to be updated
The problem as I've seen it is that the hardware acceleration on the Prime doesn't handle subtitles and since netflix is using hardware acceleration, you get this problem. The solution with local videos is to switch the player over to software decoding, but such a thing doesn't exist in Netflix and I'm not sure if a workaround is even possible.
+1 for this problem. Although it happens to me on my TF101 with Tegra 2. The subtitles worked on Honeycomb perfectly, but since installing the Ice Cream Sandwich OTA yesterday I do not get to display the subtitles on the TV via HDMI out. Video plays nice, but the subtitles keep being displayed on the tablet only.
The difference I noticed is that under Honeycomb the video was mirrored, i.e. being displayed at the same time on tablet and on the TV. With Ice Cream it only displays the video on the TV...
Netflix subtitles over HDMI
I have an Asus transformer with the same problem, when it was HC netflix works fine showing the movie and subtitle at the tablet and tv at same time. After upgrade to ICS the movie is not showing on tablet and the subtitle does not appear on tv.
hello same problem fr me with dice player
is there any fix for this problem ?

Try disabling hardware overlays in the Developer Options (Android). It should fix the problem.

Hi guys. I have a problem with Hdmi. I connect the phone and the tv, but the tv says 'no signal' . The phone recognizes it, kinda. The 'hdmi connected' appears in the statusbar but disappears in 1 second. Then appears again and so on..
On ICS it worked perfectly, so its not the cable nor the tv. Any idea?

are you using JB Stock 6.2.A.1.100???
Any tv launcher other than the default installed?
I also didn't try it on tv yet.But its not even working on my screen.Any solution?
Maybe the issue has something to do with the HDMI port or cable.. Because mine runs just fine, even when on custom ROMs..

Yes 6.2.A.1.100, default tv launcer.
Maybe it's in the tv settings, becayse the same happen with my screen when the DVI port is selected, the the tv launcger comes up then it close until I select the HDMI port as input, then it come up again.
Some more information....
I tried my new hdmi to vga converter in a Acro S(lt26i) with 6.2.B.0.211 and worked successfully...But I tried it in 3 xperia Ps but the same problem...it will detect but then go off.After 1 sec again it detect and again go off.....I tried in ICS and JB...I think its a kind of bug or something....
EDIT: Spotify released their app on the app-store some days ago, get it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spotify.tv.android
Or if you want the latest firestick version you can get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex.../spotify-v0-5-4-removed-amazon-store-t3383756

Hi! On my old Spotify Connect thread people wanted the new Spotify app for Fireface but without the need of the Amazon Store so here is a modified version of the new Spotify App.
I don't have an Amazon Stick myself so if any updates arives, post the APK here and I'll remove the need of the Amazon Store :highfive:
This is designed for AndroidTV?
Fantastic, works perfectly on my Shield TV, and has an icon for the Android TV launcher!
EDIT: Can you 'de-Amazon' any APK then?

Mostly. Found out that the app Lucky Patcher could remove the need of Amazon, Google Play and other services from apps. Bin using it to remove the need of Amazon for some apps like Spotify. Never failed to work for me.

Have you been side loading the apk on to another device that has lucky patcher on it?
I have Lucky Pathcer on my phone for ease so I download the APK, install it, launch Lucky Patcher (without running the APK), patch the app into a new APK, share the APK to my Nexus Player using Air-Share and then I have the patched app running nicely on my Nexus Player
I don't see why Lucky Patcher wouldn't work on an Android TV directly, the only problem would be the navigation. No idea how it would work, havn't tried.

Interesting. I better go root my spare phone then!
Confirmed, you can install lucky patcher on the shield and navigate pretty well actually. What other useful amazon locked apps are we missing out on? I tried slingplayer but there is an issue with the way it loads.
This works perfectly on my Sony 55S8005C. Awesome.

I am trying to get the WatchESPN app for fire stick, would you be able to remove the amazon store authentication for that as well? I will send you the APK when i get it.
I can't start a song from my tv (sony KDL-50W805C). music starts for a split second but pauses then again.
It only works if I press play on the phone and then choose the tv with spotify connect.
Can anyone confirm or has a solution?

This works great for me on Shield TV, but there is one caveat. For some reason I can only select things on the screen by hooking up a mouse/touchpad and using the onscreen cursor to click. If I move to a UI element with the remote and then try to activate it by pressing OK or Enter then nothing happens. Anyone else experiencing something similar?
Volume control
this apk works well but I can't control the volume.
Can you help me?
Would love to get the watchESPN app...

Friends, if you own a V10, with Chrome and Google Cast, on both LP and Marshmallow, can PLEASE run this Test for me? I would really, really appreciate it!
1. Open Chome
2. Go to cnn.com or any site that has video streaming
3. Play the video in the browser until the Cast icon pops up
4. Cast to your TV
5. Once the video is running, pull down your notifications and click on the stream that's running from Google Cast to launch the full screen player controller window
6. Please report what happens? Does your video keep running and you are able to play with the video progress (Rewind, Forward with the slider) OR does it crash Chrome, loses the video controller on your phone, but the video keeps running on your TV?
Please report this on your phones as much as you can and please mention which ROM, Android version you are using.
Note: This has crashed for me since G3, G4 (LP), and the V10 (LP), wondering if I am the only one with this issue?
Thank you in advance for your testing!!! Would appreciate it DEEPLY if you could do this for me.
Ive used the google cast for sometime on my 6.0 (such loss of root, many sadness) and havent had any issues like that, all flawless except when i play any videos from chrome it makes my phone noticeably warm but otherwise okay. VS99022A Lg V10

Thank you so so much for your response and test, my friend. So just to be clear, I can cast fine as well. Yes, noticed the warmth, but works fine.
Now can you truly confirm that once your casting from your browser, and then you pull down the video details from notification drawer to control the progress of the video, it launches fine, doesn't crash, and you can move the video forward and backwards? ?
Thank you again! Sorry you lost root on MM. I'm on T-Mobile, we have it a little easier...

quick response due to email notifications! i just tried doing that and for me it completely exits the video if i try to go forwards at all and starts at the beginning if i go back... i think its something the bug team hasn't encountered yet and have to be told about it still. each phone model can act different even if they are almost similar, and just tested with my brothers S7 edge and it works fine, might be something with the V10 specific

Thanks for the quick response buddy. For me, since LG G3 on Verizon, to G4 on AT&T, to T-Mobile V10, when I launch the video through the notification drawer... It just crashes Chrome, the video keeps going, but nothing left on the phone to control the video ?... Wonder if it has to do with my Chromecast device? Since it's consistent on all these phone models from all these different carriers...
Thank you again for your test! Would love it if others can report too? Thank you all!
I have been trying to use mutiscreen function of Realme 1 to mirror Mobile screen on TV. As soon as The phone is in landscape orientation, the audio stops and all I can see in video only.
Please help me with a resolution to this problem.
I am using anycast and this is working fine when I am using an MI phone and hence issue looks to be with the inbuild app.
Thanks in advance!!!
