Miracast

Hello all. Hope you are enjoying your N5s. Yesterday I bought a cheap streaming box ( PANASONIC - DMP-MS10EB-K ) with miracast capabilities. Unfortunately I can not get miracast to work.
There are YouTube videos of the device working with the note3 and s4 as well as nexus 7, but no joy for me and my lovely N5.
Has anyone got miracast working? If so what device are you using?

At which step is it not working for you?
I'm using a Sony Bravia smart TV and worked right away!
Be sure to enable miracast on your phone though, it's under display settings, "Wireless Display" has to be ON.

It is enabled on phone. My phone does see the Panasonic device and starts connecting. The TV screen shows that it is trying to connect also then after about 30 seconds the Panasonic disappears from the list on the phone and then I get unable to connect.

The Panasonic is still not working so I will get different device. Any suggestions?

I have just bought the DMP-MS10EB-K too and I can't get it to work with my Nexus 5. I get the same problem as you describe.
I have my Nexus 7 (2013) in work and I will test it tomorrow but I have seen videos of it working Nexus 7 to DMP-MS10EB-K.
I will post if it works later.

This thing is Rubbish. I tried a Note 2, Galaxy s3, Surface pro and Surface 2. Non work. It just connects for a couple of seconds then disconnects with no picture at all. Really annoying. Would be nice to get a list on this thread as to which devices do work. If any?

I will get my Nexus 7 and XPS12 which I think has miracast and post the results tomorrow. If I have no luck I think I will be taking it back. Its a shame really as its pretty good at dlna and Netflix. There is a video on YouTube with a guy using it with Samsung phones and a Nexus 7.

Think he might be a reseller of some sort. Did you see his review on Amazon, talk about Over the top its ridiculous. Sounds like he is selling them to me. Besides he doesn't show the device on youtube or how he connected. Very suspect. Let us know how you get on cheers.

Well I suppose it is good to know that it is not just me having problems. What to try next?

Only had time to test for 10 minutes. Nexus 7 2013 connected after a couple of attempts. I could flick the menu's around fine with minimal lag and was impressed. I then tried to play some video and the MS10 froze on two occasions and I had to pull the plug to restart it.
I will play around with the settings and test some other devices tomorrow.

I have tried the Rocketfish Miracast Video Receiver using my Nexus 5. I have no problem connect to my old LG HDTV( no CEC support, cannot change the receiver setting). It mirror the games( Asphalt 8, Sonic Racing, Riptide GP2) I played on Nexus 5 with little lagging. Mainly I want to show pictures and family video of my phone to TV, I found it works fine for me.

Hi, I've also tried with my smart tv LG 42lm620s, but without luck.. I see the TV on N5, when I try to connect to TV, on TV I see the loading bar for the connection, but after some time (~20sec) TV outputs an error of "device not compatible" and TV disappears from N5 list.
I sent an email to LG, still waiting for response....

I bought a Panasonic BluRay player with built in Miracast support yesterday and cannot get it to work with my Nexus 5. They 'try to connect' and then it fails with my N5 freezing every time. Adding to my frustration is the fact that my N5 is completely stock with only root & a custom recovery.
Also, it works perfectly with my stock, unrooted Galaxy S 4 & my Nexus 4 running Slimbean. Short of installing Slimkat, which will eventually happen, does anyone have any ideas for getting this working?

Exactly the same here. Note 2, Nexus 5, Surface 2 Pro, all fall on this device. It seems to disconnect from wireless and then goes AWOL like a banana. Waiting for a response from Panasonic as this is clearly an issue with them, not with the Nexus 5.

[Q] NFC Bluetooth Pairing

Has anyone had any success with NFC Bluetooth pairing on the Nexus 5? I made some tags a while back with my Galaxy Nexus, and both my GNex and Nexus 7 have always paired with my devices without a problem. The Nexus 5 makes a sound when put next to the NFC tags, but does nothing.

I'm not sure about the nexus 7, but tags that used to work with the galaxy nexus, no longer work with N4/N5.
The ones that I noticed, were the Samsung tags that were released with the s3

So you think it might be the tags rather than NFC Bluetooth pairing not working?

I paired sony sbh52 with N5 using NFC. No problems at all.
You need to unlock the phone before pairing and turn bluetooth on.

I did try it with Bluetooth on and the phone unlocked, but it's still not working. The tags I made work fine with my Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7. Android Beam works fine with my Nexus 5, so I'm pretty sure my NFC is working on my Nexus 5. I'm going to try researching to see if it's the tags, before I go through the hassle of returning my phone, if it's a phone issue.

Ok, after doing much research, I discovered what the problem was, and you were right. The Nexus 5 does not support MIFARE tags, which are the tags that I own. It appears like it does support NTAG203 tags, so I purchased some and will try them out. Thank you!

[Q] Nexus 5 MirrorLink Compatible?

Anyone tried to connect their Nexus 5 to a MirrorLink device? Since LG is a member and the Nexus 4 was compatible I was hoping that carried forward for the N5. What about Miracast? I saw the option to share display wirelessly.

The Google Nexus 4 does not support Mirror Link as far as im aware ...don't think the Nexus 5 does either which is a real shame!

Thanks for the reply. I am getting my screen sharing solutions mixed up. Miracast was supported with the N4 and is on the N5 too. It does suck MirrorLink is not supported. Hopefully someone comes up with a solution to pass the touch interface through.

Just wanted to bump this thread to see if anyone has found a solution to getting the Nexus 5 to work with a MirrorLink device. My Google-fu hasn't turned up anything promising unfortunately....

Not yet, but I'm still trying!
Works with Samsung S7's, Tried my bosses.

Did anyone try this - github[dot]com/sileht/mirrorlink-nexus5-apps?
I have no idea how to use it though :/

Bumping this thread...
Is anyone aware of any way of getting a Nexus 5 to work with mirror link?

Any Android Auto owners?

I'm looking to see if the new Android Auto technology is compatible with the Galaxy Note 4 and if anyone here has had any success stories to share. I've read a thread in the past where users were having problems with the MirrorLink technology the Note 4 has built in. I don't want to spend $1k on a head unit that won't be compatible with my phone. My Note 4 is the Retail Verizon Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910V).
When responding, PLEASE state what carrier you're on. This information is essential, as both Verizon and AT&T have locked bootloaders and are currently not permanently rootable, thus some connection settings may not be currently attainable.

I have Sprint Note 4 rooted and running the awesome Hybrid X Series odexed version
I have mirroring working on a newly installed Panasonic AVH-4100NEX head unit. I got the one without Nav because the navigation systems date the hardware and apps for nav have come a long way and pretty much replace built in nav.
Big help is to be found in the http://avic411.com/ forums. Mine can run video while under way but i will be running nav and YaV1 (yet another Valentine 1 app) rather than fooling with streaming video or DVDs.
Cheers

Thank you for your reply. When you first connected mirroring, were there any signs that the process was asking for root access? I would like to know if root IS required or not.

I only had my truck for an hour taking it from the stereo shop to the body shop. I tested with the AR Unchained Reloaded app, which requires root. When I get the truck back I can test it with my wife's non-root S4 if it has mirror capability. But I think it does not have mirroring. I would search on the avic411 forum. I'll take a look there too.

I have this problem
I had the Chevy Mylink in my 2016 Chevy Colorado Z71 updated through my dealership for the Andriod Auto software update and I'm working with a Samsung Note 4 (AT&T) with 5.1.1 and cannot get sound when playing music. I read the horror stories online about the troubleshooting and was hoping someone had a fix, any help or ideas? thanks

MTCE px5 8.0 GPS not working

Hello
I have bought Xtrons 8.0 4GB ram 32Rom Octa Core, GPS does not work in it and it can not see the satellites
Is it the fault of the hardware or software?
Is it possible to do something about it?
Can i fix it in someway ?

Well that's odd. Mine crapped out for about 10-15 minutes today. Wouldn't get a lock.
Eventually it did pick up again though...

The "GPS test" application shows "no fix" every time

Where do you have the GPS antenna mounted?
