Connecting dex to a display with usb - Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories

As seen here they connect the portable monitor.

Is that possible using dex ?
So dex becomes a mobile desktop experience....

It also work with a ASUS mb169b+ for screen mirroring. This monitor is a USB Type A, so to run it you'll need the DisplayLink app (DisplayLink Presenter)
I'm soon to find out if it works with DeX when my dock arrives. I am really hoping it does.

To be honest I see no reason why it won't work, as the (DisplayLink Presenter) app simply mirrors whats on the screen. So I'm counting on it mirroring DeX as well.

Just wondering if this worked for you. I have an AOC brand portable USB A monitor that I am trying to use. Have tried every adapter, etc. that I can think of to utilize the HDMI out port, but no luck. Any ideas?

Okay

Dex isn't quite as simple as mirroring. Samsung put a couple of checks in kernel for a specific vendor id name of whatever it is connected to. If it doesn't find this, dex wont launch. Galaxy s8 Oreo beta 2 & 3 would launch dex without this check, but if you can't get your hands on this, only option is to run a custom kernel that doesnt check for this id (such as notorious kernel)

AppRAdio 3 support?

Does anyone know if the note 3 is able to be connected to tha appradio 3 from pioneer. I know for a fact that the note 2 and s4 works using the samsung adapter.
I've tried the stock n3 with the stock TMServerApp on my Sony XAV701HD. Didn't work. I tried rooted N3, with the modified Drive Link. Didn't work. I'm guessing the Drive Link app has to be updated by Drive Link Team to support the N3 like they did when the S4 came out.

The closest I got it to work was a snow filled screen that could control the phone after I used the modified Drive Link app, creating an odex file with System Cleanup and putting the original odex file back to system app folder. Couldn't see the image on the radio but I did have touch control both ways.

Bump anyone know if the pioneer app radio 3 works with the note 3 using the USB and hdmi cable? I do not like the sound quality through auxiliary cable
I have Appradio 2 in my car and Note 3 worked with ArLiberator 3.0.1. and i think Appradio Unchained app should work with Appradio3.
A friend of mine has S3 and Appradio3 and he uses AppRadio Unchained app, he told me that it works without any issue.
Sorry if I sound like a noob but what is unchained and all this? All I want to do is listen to Pandora and use the radio controls to skip songs and change stations etc...

Xperia Z2 as a console - MHL lag?

Good morning all!
I have an amazing Xperia Z2 that unfortunately has a damaged touch screen.
Therefore I decided to turn it into a media streaming / gaming console device connected to a Samsung full HD tv with an MHL cable.
I have a dualshock 3 controller and the sixaxis app. The combination is perfect. (The sixaxis app isn't strictly necessary as the z2 connects to dualshock controllers through xperia connectivity - but the app makes it easy to manage mapping, profiles, etc...)
When I use this set up as a media device I have no problem. Streaming movies and music works perfectly.
The problem though is that when I try to play games there is a very significant lag that makes it impossible to play.
The interesting thing is that I tried this exact same set up (same phone, same mhl port, same HDMI cable) with another full HD tv (LG this time) at a friend's and there is no lag!!!
Any idea on how to possibly fix this? is there any requirement for the HDMI port I am missing?
I read somewhere else that the problem was with the MHL cable. But since this is working fine with a different tv it leads me to think that this issue is the HDMI port or the tv set up.....
Thanks a lot!!

thanks for the suggestion @Safarend!
i did read that thread. But I am not sure if it applies to this case as, as i mentioned, without changing set ups in the phone, the whole thing works as-is on a different tv.

What i would do is the following:
Load default tv settings
Update the tv software to the latest (Maybe a bug)
Try different hdmi ports
Check if your tv support gaming mode (soccer Mode) and enable it
I'm not an expert but that's the first things i would do.

If nothing works. Share both TV's model numbers
Thank you @Safarend!
I solved this. First I did a reset of the tv settings. Then, browsing through the menu, I found a "game mode" .
That did the trick!
Thanks again.

IR Blaster doesn't work with Smart Remote apps

I have been trying to make Smart IR Remote and Peel Smart Remote with with the IR Blaster but it seems that the ROM isn't allowing access or the libraries are different.
Only the inbuilt IR remote works but is limited in functions.
Anyone else have this issue?
Else I am very happy with Honor 7 so far...
Sent from my PLK-UL00 using Tapatalk
Same here. Using Honor 7/PLK-AL10 (CN model). No single response from Peel towards fairly recent Philips AmbiLight. Previously Peel worked superb, with a Samsung Galaxy S5 mini.
Rooted or not?
What's your region code in build.prop? (product.language, product.region)
The only other app I've got to work that is compatible with the IR driver is ZaZaRemote https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tiqiaa.remote
Peel Smart Remote did not work for me too on Sony TV

One way around this is to Edit your "Smart Controller" App. For instance I edited volume buttons to be used for Surround Sound (External speakers). This can be done by either by editing existing buttons on the remote or by using 'Expand' button. So you can practically add any remote function by key learning method available on "Smart Controller' App. Please feel free if any further help is needed regarding this feature.
Someone can post the original apk for the honor 7?i delete by accident
Peel Remote
Hi,
The Smart Controller works fine alright, it is Peel TV remote that does not work or get configured. Since my Set top box was not listed in the list, I had to manually edit the Smart Controller anyway for it to work
EDIT- Rather the Smart Controller doesn't work completely fine. Every button works fine except the channel selection buttons (0 to 9). If I press say 3, it takes 33 as the input. So I want to key in channel 100, it will invariably got to 110 (double of the first press, double of the second press double of the third press, 110000, but since the TV recognizes 3 characters, it will stop at 110).

I'm having this same issue with my VS990 Verizon LG V10. It did not work on official 11B and now I've rooted and installed xposed, still not working.
My Samsung TV (UN75F6300) says "[phone name] is now connected", but the phone just says "Connecting..." until they both give up and the TV says "Screen mirroring has ended" and the phone just kicks back to the Miracast "Available devices" dialog box, but now empty.

ChromeCast leaves the phone / PC free to use with other apps, while the TV shows what you casted :good:

So is Miracast the same thing as Chromecast? I was hoping / expecting for screen mirroring like I enjoyed on my Note 3: I could browse the web, look at the home screen, open any app, and my TV would show exactly what was on my phone screen.

That is miracast, but you cannot use the phone for other tasks while casting a movie, sports, etc...
Called t mobile and have a a replacement in the Mail ,miracast is a must and figure it's a hardware issue

Which is Miracast?
Screen mirroring?
Or "casting" media to a display while able to do other things on the phone?
I was hoping to have screen mirroring with no cable to share Web browsing apps and such. I rarely "cast" things except YouTube, which has it built in if you set up the app on your display.

Help - Showtime Android TV App

Hey all,
I have a shield TV, loving it.
I really want to run the showtime Android TV App, but it's out of my region... I've been looking for the past two days online for an android TV apk, and all I could find were either phone or tablet versions (That obviously don't show up on the Leanback). I've also searched the forums.
The tablet version seams to display fine (when opened through Sideload launcher), but I cannot control it with either the remote or the gamepad.
I was hoping one of you might have a link to an APK that is native for Android TV/Shield TV, that will show up on the Leanback launcher and be usable.
Thanks!!
I ran into the same thing with another app. found that there are bt keyboard handheld devices (ebay) that will do the trick. you should not have to pay more than $20. However, not all worked for me. The alternative is to use a good wired mouse
The official Showtime TV app works with out a mouse . If you still need it I can send you the apk.
