Screen Mirroring or Throw not working - Xperia Z4 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've recently got the Z4 tablet and I'm having problems with wirelessly displaying content on the TV. When I try to throw or mirror the screen, I get an error that device is not HDCP compliant. I'm using Microsoft Wireless Adapter and it works with everything else other than the Z4 tablet.
Is there any work around or fix for that?

Same here!
Every other device works with my Sammy F6500 just not the Z4 Tab. Same error like OP
Has it anything to do with unlocked Bootloader and root? Or is the OP stock?
Hope anyone has an idea
Cheers

Hi,
Possibly related to the unlocked bootloader with the lost of DRM keys
There is some thread about that in this forum with another xperia models
I use a chromecast and no problem to display content on the TV

I am all stock running the latest marshmallow update.

Anyone else has any insight or can test if this issue still exists with other Miracast receivers

You can try an option in setting->developper options-> Enable Wireless display certification

Your miracast is connected directly to the TV or via a Hdmi splitter ?

I am completely stock right now but thinking about rooting but I've read somewhere that rooting/unlocking bootloader breaker other DRM functions like Playstation remote play etc. Is that true?

I think I'm gonna go the splitter route as I don't see much need of getting root on the tablet as there is no development for it.

It works? I tried but it still disconnects after the tv says miracast signal detection and then the tablet says tv dont support hdcp...... Weird that a note 10.1 also can't connect but i doubt there would be something wrong with the tv.. Too bad i don't have any unrooted stock devices to test with. Im running stock mm rooted and unlocked BL on the z4 tab btw

Bought the recommended HDMI splitter and same issue :'(. Tablet tries to connect it for a while and after that just throws the dreaded HDCP error.

Finally, got it working with Chromecast. Mirroring works without any issue !!

Netflix App

Looks like it's almost finished. The app is ready and it'll let you sign in and manage your queue but when you attempt to stream a video an error pops up with:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

So I attached the apk of the file that I installed if anyone wants to play around with it.
EDIT: I noticed that there are a few of these posts already and if the forum or senior moderator wouldn't mind merging these, I'm fine with that. The search feature wasn't working during the time of posting.
EDIT 2: I decompiled the app and attached it. If anyone is savvy enough to take a look, perhaps you can figure out why it's not running. It might be something on Netflix's end... or it might be DRM, it might be something in the .prop files... who knows.
So, Netflix.apk is the app
Netflix.zip is the decompiled app.
I let myself get too excited when I installed this afternoon the app itself should would but with the lg phone. Lets hope someone could crack this

The DRM required for the streaming to work likely isn't present on our phones and may never be?
Could the issue be related to our Vibrants not passing a DRM check? I'm pretty t I read when that a DRM check was needed to stream with Netflix (and also the upcoming Hulu app).
Maybe someone can rip out the coding the requires the check.

I tried it and I got a black screen as if it was about to stream video, then it backed out to the main Netflix screen.
Tried it again and got that notorious server error.
Seems like it is checking for something first.. likely DRM stuff. Hopefully they just get on top of it and release the damn thing!
Anyone try changing the build.prop to a phone model with the proper hardware for the drm check?

Common creator! Fix this baby up for us so it works! Then make a Netflixblackout.zip to go along with it as well! lol!
Love your keyboards
I decompiled the app and attached it to the OP.
I honestly don't think that it's DRM.
If you look at the code specifically strings.xml and lookup the error that you get (1005) here is what it says:
<string name="NFErr_MC_OpenDeviceFailure">Sorry we could not reach the Netflix service. Please try again later. If the problems persists please visit netflix.com. (1005)</string>
It looks like a DRM error would be 1008 and 0028.
But we could be getting more than one error too.
May be it in the build prop that needs editing???

It could be account related... perhaps an account has to be "cleared" with netflix to stream to android?
...how about a more...hopeful scenario?
it could be that the app simply isn't pointing to the right place to stream a video from.
Reverts back to the main app screen when trying to stream.

I have worked with Dblfstr on this project for some time but since his Android phone died I have been doing some of the updates.
What is it you ask?
A: Latest version of Netflix with full rotation and black splash screens with update notifications removed!
Why would you want to download it?
A: Portrait viewing mode works on this mod as well as landscape and looks good! Not to mention black splash screens are cool!
Instructions:
1. Download the attached file.
2. Install like any other .apk file (If it errors you may need to uninstall previous versions of Netflix)
3. Make sure you have a Netflix account
4. Enjoy!
Download v1.8.1 Here
Older Downloads:
Download v1.8 Here
Credits and Thanks:
Dblfstr for the original Netflix Rotation and color mods

Thanks, any screenshots?

Thank you for continuing this work my friend. If you need any help just let me know. I know there have been problems with the way the update check was initiated.
I have not looked into the log to see how Netflix is verifying the version now, but it seems to have changed.
awesome!! just what i needed...thank you
Looks great, I was wondering if there was anyway to add HD streaming to this, I know there is an apk around which let people do that, however I dont think it works any more.

The one floating around never did. HD streaming to android mobile phones is based on the chip in the phone. I think only the TI OMAP 4 is certified for Netflix HD. Unless things have changed.
Although, now that Netflix is supporting HD streams to certain hardware, there may be a way to trick them into thinking you have the required certification, but I doubt it.
I doubt it because I do not know how....

That's a good thought. When the Netflix app was first released there was a workaround to get it to work on non supported devices. Maybe the same idea can be used for this.

I did read about the hardware certification, and the sad part is, browser based streaming uses silverlight, so no browser works, kind of ot, but none of the browsers support Windows media streaming either, one would expect an app for that

Network Spoofer lets you change websites on other people’s computers from an Android phone. After downloading simply log onto a Wifi network, choose a spoof to use and press start.
Please note that there is no intention for Network Spoofer to include any malicious features. This application is a fun demonstration of how vulnerable home networks are to simple attacks, with permission of the network owner - DO NOT attempt to use Network Spoofer on any corporate or other non-residential networks (eg. at school, university). It becomes very obvious when Network Spoofer is being used on a Network, and use of Network Spoofer will be considered malicious hacking by network administrators.
You can send every web page to a specific site, flip all images, or just pass all network traffic through your phone so you can... have a look. Obviously, this app has malicious potential, so be good, folks. There is also a hefty 99MB download associated with the app. you also need root
Wifi killer: with this app you can disable internet connection for a device on the same network. So if someone (anyone) is abusing the internet wasting precious bandwidth for a Justin Bieber videoclips you could just kill their connection and stay happy with a full bandwidth just for yourself.
Download Network spoofer here
Download Wifi killer here​
This are not my apps but this is a great app that every root user should know​
You can hit thanks:good:​

Enable Nexus 6P Miracast without root

Miracast is disabled by default in factory image. It can be enabled by following steps WITHOUT root.
1. Download the latest factory image, i.e. angler-mmb29q-factory-239acdde.tar.
2. Unzip boot.img from the image file.
3. Extract boot.img by the attached tool
Put bootimg.exe and boot.img in the same folder.Run "bootimg.exe --unpack-bootimg" in cmd line.

Run "bootimg.exe --repack-bootimg" in cmd line.
7. Turn on debug mode first, then boot 6P into bootloader.
Run "fastboot flash boot boot.img " in cmd line.
8. Reboot and the option in Miracast is on.

Has anyone else tried this yet?
Also, you should probably indicate whether this trips safetynet and that you need to unlock your bootloader to be able to flash images as well as whether or not you can relock after flashing this
This is probably the answer that im looking for as well. Anyone else tried this and does this trip safetynet? I cannot root my device because I'm using a corporate email client which will not work if detects a root/modified device, but at the same time I need my miracast badly.
will this work for MHC19Q?? has any one tried the same??? kindly update guys

So is this disabled for the same reason Amazon will no longer sell Chromecasts? It'd be nice to mirror to the one Firestick in my house, but I'll probably just end up replacing it with a other Chromestick soon enough. Couple things the Fire Stick does better but overall the Chromecast is better in my opinion.

Yes, you do. That's a big plus to using Miracast. I use a Miracast device to cast to my Pioneer stereo in my truck, and am often outside of a data signal. So Chromecast would not work for me.

Hi as you can see in the title my phone can't find the tv for screen mirroring. Please help me solving this because I'm going crazy
I've tried all the basic methods but I can't even find my TV. The strange fact is that through the YouTube app I find it immediately and I share videos but I can't mirror the screen.

Go to settings -> connected devices -> connection preferences -> cast.
You'll see your TV. If you are connected to live tv or set top box, go to home and you'll be able to connect. And do ensure your TV is capable for casting.
