is there any or Can anyone create an native integrated app for Windows Phone 8 (like allshare from samsung in android) for LG smart tv so that i can remote control and share videos, pics ... from my windows phone to my lg smart tv??
Hi, I have an old TV with no HDMI and i want to convert it to smart so i thought i could get the "HDMI2AV" converter and use it with a Smart TV Box Stick or Chromecast, is that possible??
Please help because i am confused!
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?

Hi, XDA.
I have a old s4 with a brocken lcd and I was wandering if I could use it as a chromecast or an android tv os rom. Youtube cast is what I'm looking for.
Hi !
You may be able to use the cast feature from your device but for this you must be able to have a working touch screen
Cheers !
