I will not be monitoring this thread, I have a T-Mobile T999 but wanted to share this with the SGS3 community at large. Feel free to post results, and any additional mods (ie. Getting it to work with ASOP Rom's) in my original thread
For some reason, beyond my comprehension, Samsung have this great app, but have yet to open it up to the SGS3. I have been resorting to downloading it and installing it on my HTC HD2 (Running CM9) backing it up with Titanium, and then copying the backup over to my SGS3, and restoring the backup. A bit round about, but works.
The App, for those that don't know, allows you, with a Samsung high-end TV or BR-Player, use the app to not only as a remote, but as a second mirrored screen, with audio. Great for trips to the kitchen, bathroom, outside, or in another room (although range is limited by your router).

[Supported Phone]
While technically only SGS2, it works with SGS3 stock rooted rom, but should work on most with a stock base. It will not work on CM9/10 and ASOP ROM's but you could give it a try and let me know.
Here is the actual app, I extracted it from my Titanium backup figuring someone could use it until Samsung get around to updating the Market to let you just download it. The only thing I can't get to work is Bluetooth power on. I can pair with my TV, but it just doesn't show up until I have turned it on. I also had an issue with it working over the the 5Ghz 802.11n band, but with 3.1.9 that doesn't seem to be an issue anymore.
Version 3.1.9 - 39MB - Confirmed Working for me with 2011 PDP51D8000 Model
Version 3.2.0 - 40MB - Also Confirmed working

If it does it with other programs, and this app works for others here, you may have other issues. Are you using a stock or stock based ROM? Do you have root? Which version did you try? What band WiFi are you using, if connecting over 802.11n?
Without more, and with the issue with the other program, I would guess something is either wrong with your phone, and you should factory reset, or you are not using a stock based ROM (Although I believe remote control should still work on CM10/ASOP ROM's just not dual view)
I am a stock, not even rooted just out of the box setup. Well i did a complete reset on the phone and it fixed it and it works now.
I installed on a verizon GS3 stock non rooted, all is working great!

Had to thank you for this, immensely grateful. I cannot understand why this is not available on Play for SGS 3 owners...unless it affects sales of another product. Pointing other users to this thread.
Peace.
Edit: SGS3 Lock'n'Stock with SAMSUNG UE32ES5500, V 3.2.0 confirmed working. No Dual Screen option.....maybe not higher spec enough?

Version 3.2.0 Dual View is working mostly stable on my SGS3 but there is no option to mirror the device's display on my Smart TV (PS64D8000). are you sure this is possible? i think this feature is what Samsung now calls Allshare Cast and wants us to buy HDMI hubs for to make it work, right?
Just correcting myself and posting some screenshots the app. There are 2 versions of this app still available on Google Play, one version for Tab owners.

For some reason I can't get the newer version on my HD2. I am looking in to other ways to get this, but if 3.2.0 works I would stick with that for now.
If someone else can pull it and post it, I will update the OP
Sgs3- sgh-i747
V 3.19 The remote part works great on my SGS3- SGH-I747 with Samsung ES8000 series tv. When I am in the main screen it keep trying to "Starting Multi Display...." and then "Not Available" over and over again but, no luck.
V 3.20 The same.
Thank you.
Working Galaxy S3 and ES8000
It works fine with my Telus Galaxy S3 stock rom, Samsung ES8000 tv. Remote control works and dual screen is working. I can veiw my tv on the GS3. No luck viewing the
the screen of the Galaxy S3 on the tv. It also finds my Samsung BD 5900 blue ray player and the remote control works so far.
Thanks
Really wish someone could fix the dual view for aosp ROMs... no way I'm switching from paranoid form dual view. Remote is still handy though

I've seen a lot of discussion on here that relates to this, but I can't find a direct answer to my specific question.
I have a Note 10.1 (8013 w/JB 4.1.2) and a Samsung TV that has "AllShare".
What I want to do, and don't seem to be able to, is have whatever is on my Note screen mirrored onto my TV screen. Specifically, I want to watch NetFlix and have the Netflix content (video and audio) come through my TV. From what I've read on here, I can do that using a Samsung AllShare Dongle - but then I can use the dongle to view my content on any TV with an HDMI input. (my TV has AllShare, but it has no other "apps" built in, so I can't just have the TV pull directly from NetFlix)
What I don't understand is why I would need an AllShare dongle when I have a Samsung TV with AllShare built in. Sure, if I'm trying to use a non-Samsung TV, but it seems like if the TV has "AllShare" built in, it wouldn't need a dongle in order to do what the dongle does.
So, the question is, is there a way to have my NetFlix player on my Note show its content on my Samsung TV that has AllShare?
FWIW, what I CAN do:
- start a video that is stored locally on my tablet and have it play it to the TV. It takes a few seconds to get started, but then my movie plays through the TV itself.
- use my laptop and run Windows Media Player and pick a video that is stored locally, and have it Play To the TV. That works just like it does when playing from my tablet.
- on the TV, I can go into the AllShare menu and it shows both of the laptops on my home network, but not my Note. I can click into either PC and watch movies, listen to music, or look at photos - anything that I have chosen to Share from that PC.
So, I also don't understand why I can use my Note to Play To the TV, but the TV doesn't "see" the Note. And, if I go into the AllShare settings on my Note, it searches and says No Devices Found. But, then it will let me Play To the TV from the Video Player.
At the end of the day, I don't really see what the point of AllShare is or the AllShare dongle. Before I bought an AllShare dongle, I would just buy a Roku or similar device for the same or less money.
Depending how old your samsung tv is depends whether you need the dongle or not. Mine is the UA55D7000LM model which was supposed to be supported but that has since been withdrawn. I had to get a dongle.
Contacted samsung and got no help, would've been less painful beating my brains out with a gold brick wrapped in a slice of lemon...
They claimed it should work and gave me a heap of suggestions, none of which worked, and then told me I was doing something wrong.... I was, I was doing what they said....
Now with the dongle it works fine BUT as it connects with wifi you can forget browsing the web or streaming stuff through 3g. It is only good for things already on the tab..
If your tv can connect to internet, just use 'bubble dlna'.
Sent from my GT-N8010 using xda app-developers app
But I want the screen mirroring as was supposed to be available... Using DLNA only allows video and pictures. I want to be able to do something on my note and have it mirrored on the TV...
I want the same thing, screen mirroring, but for the life of me cant get it to work, What's the point of Allshare cast?....I don't get it?....
The best I can get is an app called imediashare, but this still does not mirror the tab, but at least I can YouTube to the tv..
Folks does your tv have allshare play or allshare cast?
Allshare play is dlna
Allshare cast is mirroring.
Google for it... lots of threads with this info.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk
Mine just says allshare. It a UE46D7000......
I don't see why I have to buy a dongle? I have a Samsung tv with allshare installed on it....
I can use imediashare to throw some apps on the tv, so the function for mirroring should be there already?
Bot found anything via Google about mirroring yet?
Nope nothing. I have the 2011 ua55d7000lm. It also only says allshare.... As I said, when the Note was released my model was on the list for allshare mirroring... Haven't been successful so I got the dongle. Works fine....
But I shouldn't of needed it by all the info presented by samsung. It was one of the major reasons I bought the note... That and the phone capability....
Yep, I'm having the same probs, cant mirror, I've connected via WiFi direct, and on the tv in menu there's an option that says Samsung wireless link (swl), its connected but not idea how to use it. It's given me another ip address too for the link?
Do the newer 2013 Samsung tvs have an allshare cast app installed?
Same reason i bought the notę, for all the compatability reasons....suprise suprise Samsung been telling fibs again....wont be the 1st time though..... The old ue46d6000 series would not display 3D in HD even though they were advertised as doing so......I got an upgraded set the 7 series in the end, and some strange calls from solicitors saying they needed to speak to me.....no doubt to keep stum
Google sammygo.tv Excellent site for the Samsung tv range

Understand what you mean.
Like you i just spent $50 to get the dongle. Now i have what works with any hdtv. Its better than spending $200+ for this feature alone on a small set of samsung TVs for me!
Price of happiness ..
And boy the dongle rocks... i can take it with me to office.. i can connect it to my desktop monitor, and take it with me when i travel so that my kid does not have to look at the tablet for watching a movie in hotel rooms.
Dongle is better!

Hmmmmmm...
Seems I will have to buy this dongle you speak ov.........
Just be aware that the dongle uses wifi to connect. If you have 3G then that gets turned off to accomodate the wifi connection, all other wifi connections seem to be dropped so you can't stream movies from the net to your TV as it only allows 1 wifi connection at a time....
Pain in the bum as a use a wifi HDD to store most of my movies/TV shows.... Can only stream to TV what's on the tablet. But with a 64Gb sd card that is plenty of choice.....
I have a samsung tv also. But like many have said its older. So doesnt work. I have The galaxy note 10.1, Galaxy note II and a HP Laptop with WIDI Build in. I got the Netgear PTV3000 its a push to tv device. Its smaller than a pack of cigs. HDMI out and can be powered from the usb on the tv itself or comes with a outlet plugin adapter. I updated the Firmware to 2.2.4 Which u can get off the internet and this also adds miracast for the nexus devices. Everything works AWESOME. I can stream netflix from all 3. When i stream a movie it goes to FULL screen. I can Stream From VUDU, Hulu and also Stream a blueray movie from my laptop to my TV. Everything just works. The tablet and phone mirror from device to TV. So if i turn my tablet or phone landscape or longways it does the same on the tv. With the laptop u can adjust screen size from the settings of WIDI. The thing is awesome. I take it everywhere. I travel alot so handy in the hotels. Hook it up and good to go. Have any questions i can try and answer. Forget the allshare device this does that plus adds more for other wireless display devices not just samsung. I do admit there is just a tad of lag. Maybe 1/2 a second if that. nothing u can tell while streaming anything. just notice it more when flipping thru screens. Neat to play games from the tablet to ur screen.

I am not buying another, smaller and lower resolution, TV so I can get a feature that was supposed to work with my current 55" Full HD 1080P 3D TV...
I recently learned about Samsung's WI-FI All-Share Cast Hub (wireless HDMI Display Adapter). See details here:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0089VO7MY
I'm thinking about getting one to use with my 5113. Before I do, I thought I'd ask here if anyone has tried and/or used one.
Thanks in advance,

Does your device support all share cast or are you just looking to add DLNA to a TV?

You hit upon my confusion. I'm confused about DLNA, Miracast, AllShare Cast. I've been unable to learn if either Miracast or AllShare Cast is supported on my Samsung Galaxy tab 2 10.1. I am running stock (but rooted) Android 4.1.1 on the device.
I should have asked about solutions rather than specific technologies. What I would like to do is:
1. display/show pictures that are on my Samsung Galaxy tab 2 10.1 on my TV screen wirelessly
2. display/show videos stored on my tablet similarly
3. watch Youtube & HBOgo videos on my TV using the cabailities on my tablet
I am familiar with WiDi and would like that capability as well so that I can also use my Windows 8 table to connect to my TV.
If you go to Samsung they are out of stock. I hope they are upgrading this box so it is a lot speedier.
If you read the reviews for this device on amazon it seems it may be too slow.
As for all share cast just go to the play store and see if your device supports the app.
I am also considering one of these to add DLNA to an older 61" plasma display. My tab 2 7.0 does not support cast, but I have alot of videos that work with allshare.
I think streaming won't work without cast, but that is a guess.
I got the allshare cast dongle today. I bought it for the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 but it does not work
I also have a SIII. That works fine. On the S3 you can connect with the dongle from the connection settings. It has a option AllShare cast. The Tab 2 does not have that option.
Please let me know if you have a solution.
Hii
I have Samsung smart TV which is connected to my wifi network.
I have Samsung galaxy Note 2 from which i share media content to TV over wifi using "allshare."
But when i try to "Throw" (Share) media content using my Xperia SP it does not detect my TV. But i turn on "Media server" on my Xperia SP and then my TV can access media from Xperia SP. (But for that i need to go through all the media using my TV remote and it takes a lot time to load media. So i was thinking is there anything like allshare from samsung) Note 2 and xpria SP and my TV are connected to same wifi network.
Is it that only samsung phones can share content with samsung TV. (I think it should not be like that)
I have the same question, bought a Samsung smart TV yesterday... I guess it's a Samsung software problem... It allows you to browse DLNA devices, but it dons't allow devices to "control" or send content to the TV
And as you said, I want to use my phone to choose what I want to see or listen, it's much better...
Has someone found a solution to this problem?
Hello, first of all.
It's been a long time since I have visited this place, so excuse me please if I missed a similar thread. I have searched for it.
My question is if it this possible to turn my old Motorola XT 720 into an Android TV box (i.e. Chromecast or similar).
I have tried CheapCast app that only crashed when opening YouTube. This phone has a HDMI port and I assumed it can connect through it to my Philips TV, which is not a smart TV, but a regular HD TV.
The only connection I was able to create was the built-in version of media gallery from phone which has the option to display the pictures from phone on TV screen (proving there is a working connection at least).

This should be possible as the device has the ability to use another display. I would recommend using something like Tablet Remote or other similar apps on the Play store so instead of using the device as a chrome cast you can use it as a full media center device connected to your TV. By using one of these apps you would play videos directly through your device instead of "casting" them. This should hopefully work arround the issue of apps like CheapCast crashing.
Hope I could help and good luck
Thank you, Tablet Remote works good between the 2 Android phones. Still working on it.
I am also working on this route, trying to make use of my screen-broken Xperia Z. However apart from using as mediacenter with kodi, it would be nice if I could properly emulate chromecast. I would love to see a nexus android TV Rom being able to drive my phone, is anybody working on that?
