[Q] Smartshare and DLNA

I wonder how do you use smartshare and DLNA on your phone? Any guide? If I had compatible DLNA compatible device such as TV etc, can I stream our O3D display to that TV(For game, movies etc)? Or is it only play a share files(image, video, musics etc) on that TV?
Thanks.

It is only for play a share files(image, video, musics etc)

Thinking of buying smart TV with DLNA. If that the case, then I'll pass. Better buy android TV box or a cheap chinese android Tablet with HDMI is enough to make my current TV a smart TV.

I don't know, i have a lg smart tv and it works fine.
I have my series tv on my phone and i send them to my 60 inch tv with DLNA

I see that smart tv is only a tv with wifi. Not smart enough imo. I though it could replace hdmi for display stream of our phone. Especially a phone with no tv out.

What you talking about. The phone can send 3d videos to smart TVs via dnla, can be connected to TV via HDMI and control your phone from there
It works on Lg TVs Samsung etc.

[Q] AllShare Cast - Noob question

I have a Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 10.1, I am trying to use the AllShare Cast option betwen them, is it posible? or is only posible if I get the dongle? if it is posible, is there any guide or video I can refer to, to make it work? sorry for bad english and sorry if it repost, could not find thread about it

Dongle is only for tv's build before 2010/2011.

You also don't need a dongle if the device you're sending to supports DLNA. When I'm watching a video in the same room as my Sony Google TV an icon appears in the stock video player that when selected shifts video playback to it.

Ya I thought so..
I ordered one from amazon, but probaly won't come til october, since it says ships 1-3 months, but no worries, Will let people know how it works when I get it

I don't need the dongle for mirroring my note 10.1 on the SGS3 and vice versa! Thats what allshare play/group cast is for. You need it for mirroring galaxy devices on your TV if you have no smart TV.

thanks. I try it and it didn't worked, it get stuck at search, i try with both devices, I try the allshare play and i am not able to join an allshare play - group cast. i dont think i can join an all share cast to mirror the screen.
any ideas why?

I have a D8000 LED LCD and can whip videos back and forth between devices, its pretty much awesome.

As far as I've checked you can mirror files and pics on both devices, you draw on one device and it mirrors on the other(both devices need to be connected to the same network). As for a complete mirror of the screen like with a smart tv or the dongle I've never tried this to accomplish with note and the sgs3, only with note -> tv an sgs3->tv this I can confirm works well.
Playing movies, pictures and songs on the tv, this is even possible witv my old sgs and a b7000 tv using allshare.

No for mirroring. This is the stock video player while playing to an external device. The Note will also sleep while playing externally to conserve battery. For this pic, the Note is outputting to my Google TV via DLNA. It behaves the same way when connected to my HTC dongle.

Are both devices registered to the same samsung account in the play app? And both connected to the same network (one 2,4 GHz and the other 5GHz is not working)?

I am having the same problem. Does any one have a solution for this? I'm on the same network and it just says searching, no matter which device I try.

5ghz and 2,4 ghz do not work so you have to be either on 2,4 or 5 with both devices. It's not working if one device only connected to wifi an the other still on 3G or LTE. Also both have be logged in the SAME samsung account to see them as registered devices in the allshare play app. You start on your device and join on the other with join group cast(in the settings in allshare play app).. Works like a charm for me.

Both devices are on the same network and are logged into the same account. The only thing I'm not sure how to check is if they are both on 5 or 2.4 ghz. How do I do that?

As in, to output to the TV? Not to my knowledge. But I don't know everything either :silly:

No not for the 7" variety sorry

It just makes me wonder why they wasted the dock connectors on the 7 inch if you can't use them. Should have just put a micro USB on the bottom like most phones.

You could still use DLNA but you will require a tv that supports dlna.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using xda premium

Not sure that will work for netflix and youtube. It does work with video files, picture files and music files.
They have a new DLNA app called Allshare cast. But it only works on these so far. (Galaxy S III, Note II and Note 10.1)

General != Q/A

How should I broadcast my Nexus 5 onto my HDTV?

I have a normal HDTV and I am new to mirroring or streaming things from my phone to my TV. I don't want to use any cables and I'm looking to have as little lag as possible.
Is there any dongle or set top box that I can buy and plug it up to my tv? If so, which is the best?

Netgear PTV3000. Just remember.. The device needs an update right out of the box to work.

Chromecast for $35 should work.

Yes the CC works for Netflix/Youtube/GoogleMusic but device mirroring isn't available.... yet.

kitkat screen mirroring fixed the easy way

Or allshare cast dongle fixed.
Just install "ScreenMirroring Patch" from Google play.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sec.screenmirroringpatch
I am unrooted in the UK on o2. I updated to kitkat and screen mirroring stopped working as this has been happening to other people if you search Google. so after many searchings on Google I found this to fix a different problem, but it fixed screen mirroring after updating to kitkat.
Wanted to put this out there because I could not find a fix searching Google. Hope this helps.

If anyone is using the AllShare Cast Hub device, can you tell me what output resolution your device is using since KitKat. Mine which are on old firmware (no way to update the firmware with S4 or Note3!!), output 1080p/30 which is an unusual resolution and my Panasonic TV doesn't support it. Prior to KitKat, it was still 720p on the hub device even the phone is of course 1080

Resolution is 1920x1080 full hd.I tryed now a movie i am on uk 4.4.2 and is working.

Yes the 1080 bit I agree...its the refresh bit thats the problem. At 1080, you can have 50/60Hz (most common), 24p (blu-ray) and 30p (weird things). Samsung is using the 30p connection which is what is causing me all the problems

for those who can't search or just can't be ar**d!

Still doesn't work for me and my Cloudnetgo Miracast dongle. After patching with the Samsung app, about one in every ten screen mirroring attempts connect but only for about half a minute.

My note 3 didn't connect either. What I did was hit the reset button once on the hub device and then turned on the screen mirroring very quickly after the release of the reset button. It connected and always does since then.

What i don't get is why the Samsung dongle is now expensive then their Wi-Fi Blu-ray player with allcast built in....

Well, you can stick it in your pocket and take it anywhere. Hotel room or work. Bluray player stays at home. The allshare/screen mirroring is way better with my LG tv. I can plug my headphones into the phone and watch the tv. The cast hub will disconnect if you keep the headphones plugged in.

It doesn't work with the hub. It works with my LG Tv mirror cast. However, if you have the hdmi adapter the headphones will work while it outputs video to you tv. I noticed this after the kitkat update.

the same here... and it seems theres no workaround...

for the previous android version 4.3 i used a patched libWFD_ENGINE.so file which worked with root, but with the new kitkat there is no such a file in the library folder..

Any one have fix this for rooted device?

as far as my findings go, try it with a stock kernel, even when rooted it should work then!

Patch says not needed. Used to mirror from note 3 to tv thru my Sony BDP s3200 but quit after note 3 android update. BS. What to do? It was so clean and NO LAG AT ALL. PISSED
