is there any alternative?
Correct me if I'm wrong but the nexus 5 doesn't even have the hardware to be able to do it. Only alternative I think would be something like a smart tv where you can just use it as a remote via Bluetooth or over the network

There's no alternative. N5 doesn't have IR. If you have a net connected TV there are apps

Hello,
Does someone know if it is possible to mirror my phones screen to my TV ?
Its a Samsung UE40F6400
It had WiFi, and its a smart TV.
When i duplicate screen under Display its connected, and then my TV says connection is stopped.
Running stock rom, Faux kernel 03B06
Anyone?
Same thing happens to me. I have a Sony Smart tv with miracast but I can't get my Nexus 5 or my Galaxy S3 to mirror. I'm getting frustrated.

Miracast is absolute utter garbage technology. Its seriously one of the ****tiest standards ever to grace mobile computing, mostly because there just is no standard. It can work with one device and then not work with another, even though everything is miracast enabled. Its probably not worth your time trying to figure out, because even when you do its frustratingly awful sometimes. I got it working finally on my nexus 4 and 7, but even when the phone or tablet was within a foot of the damn miracast receiver it would still lag and lose connection while playing video.

Its not that bad. with the latest drivers its actually pretty stable with everything I have thrown at it. note 8, yoga2, venue 8 pro, nexus 5 and gs4.
to answer the op samsung makes it so only samsung devices can mirror with their tvs. hopefully they change this soon but until then you need to buy a ptv3000 or similar.
What does it check, could it work if i change build.prop or something else?
Any developer know how to get allshare on Nexus 5?
Or how to fake my phone to connect it to the TV with wirekess display?
Still looking.
Anyone ?

My N5 miracasts perfectly with my Sony smart TV (Except sometimes it lags or freezes and I have to reconnect) but I do have to go into the specific 'Screen Mirror' input channel.
Have you tried going into the specific source for Mirroring? Not sure if this will be applicable to Samsung TV's though.

Samsung got some modified miracast that works with allshare cast for samsung devices.
Is it possible to port those apps?

Today my TV updated to version 1117 after checking in menu.
Its working now with nexus 5,android 4.4.2 stock, faux 8u kernel.
But cant really use it when gaming, got some lagg, but its a good start that samsung now accepts a LG phone like the Nexus 5

1 more question.
Can i force the audio to my headphone while using miracast?
Tried SoundAbout and some other apps without success.

Hello to all nexusisti!
Is there anyone of you who managed to install the application on the samsung nexus 5 to control their TVs? The AllShare?
Or to limit the samsung apps and then install it manually?
thanks
No. Sorry. All share requires samsung frameworks

Nexus 5 is made by LG, not Samsung.
You can use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bubblesoft.android.bubbleupnp
It's BubbleUPnP UPnP/DLNA, it's use DLNA to connect/control Samsung TV. I have Samsung TV once and it working.
How to use:
1. Install this app to your Nexus 5
2. Open Connection opition by Remote
3. Choose DLNA and enjoy.
Good luck!
Thank you!!! Today i try and i look if it works with my tv!

A friend of mine told me he downloaded a app called megaphone and used his phone (not a nexus 5) as a Bluetooth mic for his ps3. Well I downloaded the app and couldn't get it to work. Has anyone ever tried or done this?

That would be a pretty damn cool feature.
The S5 seemed relatively unimpressive, however the download booster feature seems interesting where it uses lte and wifi for data. I was curious as to whether someone could port that over to the Nexus 5 or create their own implementation.
P0rn download b00ster. Moar plox google
Anyways I think it's hardware

I think it is implemented in software. There is a demo for using both LTE and WiFi on Galaxy S2 on YouTube already. (Search for "Energy-efficient multi-link video streaming on smartphones")
This would be REALLY nice feature to have. I actually might root for it!
Im pretty sure that it is software related, because I remember reading about an app for android that does this for you, but for the life of me can't remember the name of the app.

oh i am going to test
Any feedback? 4/5 stars on the Play Store from a N5 user.
Unfortunately I have no WiFi connection to test...
My LTE connection blows away my home Wi-Fi connection.... I don't see how I could benefit from a booster. I would think it would utilize bandwidth from my cellular data connection and not touch my Wi-Fi. Just another gimmick to pay twice as much as you need for a device imho.

This is what you need in order to cast any screen from your phone even if the phone has a screen mirror option, your tv needs a receiver to do so even a smart tv needs it

Three is a new screen mirroring by using your Chromecast in the latest update, only certain devices will have this capability though. I don't believe our phone was included in that list... Sadly

Here's where I was getting my info from... http://www.droid-life.com/2014/07/0...now-works-for-screen-mirroring-to-chromecast/
There is an app that unlocks Mirroring on the Chromecast for all devices. Unfortunately, even though it is unlocked it doesn't always work. For the S3, it works fine on Touchwiz based ROMS but not on AOSP. The developer is still trying to figure out why it isn't working on all devices/ROMS.

Totally agree.
Good news however, apparently r3pwn has found a fix to this issue and is working on it now. At some point today we should have a fix!
