I recently purchased a Roku Express and want to cast (screen mirror) from a Nook HD+. I have CM14 (Android 7.1.1) installed on the HD+, but when I select Settings>Device>Cast the tablet does not find the Roku device (although it does find my Google Home Mini). I also have a Samsung Tab A 10.1 running OEM Android 7.0 with the same problem (feature?). However, I am able to find and screen mirror using my Samsung S4 mini running CM13 (Android 6.0.1).
I have read that Android dropped native support for miracast from recent releases, which I suspect may be the problem. While the HD+ is a great tablet, it doesn't get a lot of use now that I have the Tab A. So I'm thinking of installing an earlier version of CM to see if this solves the problem. I am using TWRP 3.1.1-0 for recovery purposes.
Here are my questions. Is there any danger or problem when installing an older version of CM over a newer one? If this doesn't solve the problem, will my backup of the current OS reinstall without a problem? Are there reasons why this may not be a good idea? Is there another option to implement screen mirroring?
Thanks!

Monitor mode and bcmon doesn't work on lollipop or above roms unfortunately, not sure about kitkat, but it works great in jellybean, it's an app related as it wasn't updated for years.

Hello everyone,
I have this old tablet I want to give to my daughter for watching cartoons in the car. I have rooted it several years ago, it was working normally but now it's not working well. I think most of the apps nowadays are asking for more resources than this old thing can provide.
So I am looking for a minimalist ROM for this, so it can play cartoons, maybe connect to Netflix, and connect to WhatsApp (or similar video call app) to talk to her mother when she's away.
Any suggestions?
