I have the Acer Aspire V5-431 series laptop.
It has bluetooth but for some reason I can not connect mt Jabra Rox Wireless headset to it.
I figure if I can stream it to my N5 while its connect to my jabra rox I can listen to the audio while watching the video on my laptop. Im in a public area and dont want to make it noisey for everyone around me...
Thanks
Could always use DLNA apps

I use bs player
NEXu5
Or why not just run xbmc on your nexus 5 and shazam all the movies and TV shows you'll ever need. Gotham beta running great on mine.

How about plex? I mean though its not free, if possible you could test plex with someone else's laptop to use the free Windows app to see if it works for you.
The obvious solution is connecting the jabra to the laptop. Resolving that issue is where you should focus, not some crazy work around.
Check other BT audio can connect to the PC and then troubleshoot from there.

Hey so I've been messing with two apps, hifi speaker and remote for itunes, to airplay stream music to my phone at home. I was also going to buy a new blue tooth speaker and was wondering if after getting the music streamed to the phone, turning on blue tooth will this then redirect the music to the speaker?
Also, is there an app to give my phone actual airplay capabilities, not just making my phone a receiver for airplay but letting me push music/video out over airplay?
Thanks.

Wait so what music source exactly do you use with this? You said that no rom redirects audio to Bluetooth, yet I find it hard to believe if I connect my phone to a speaker via Bluetooth and play music out of, say Power amp, that THAT wouldn't work.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Using power amp only directs to certain BT frequency and when using the stock players it has always stopped when I try to swap to BT of course this is my experience u may have a more compatible BT device but this is just me u can try urself but this is what have found doesn't and hasn't worked
PS when I mean redirect I mean redirect the audio sound from the music player to the by device.

Wow... Then what exactly is the point in buying a speaker? I mean they advertise them to be compatible with like I phones, android, and all Bluetooth compatible devices don't they?

Hey Guys!
I own a Samsung Galaxy S i9000 and Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" device and I want to know some apps and methods on how to control other things (ie TV, PC etc)
Me and plenty others I'm sure are very interested to see what comes up and how you do it!
Thanks

Mouse replacement (for presentation or joke): gPad
I control my pc using "teamviewer", a really useful app! It works fluently even with a weak wifi signal. Another useful app is "AndroMouse", I use it like a remote when I'm watching movies on the pc.

You can control your computer via shh if you got an ssh server on there and its linux
I control my car's cd player.It's a Sony dsx-a50bt and it haves bluetooth so I can listen to music or watch videos and movies inside my phone through the car's speakers.I can also make calls without any handsfree, the player haves a built-in mic.
Just intersted to know if anyone else is using their tablet as a second monitor and what software / setup is being use and there general latency / experience is like. I use idisplay on both USB and wifi and performance is pretty good, refresh is high enough to watch web video but it crashes media player when I drag movies onto it, havent found out why that is yet.
I mainly use mine as a second monitor for use with Presonus Studio one, I sometimes drag the midi track or a vst synth onto it so I can twiddle the knobs with touch instead of my mouse.
I use splashtop 2 on mine to access my 2 monitors.

I want to use an old android phone with otg and connect it to a portabe hdd and use it as a wifi hotspot hdd to stream movies to other android devices. I have gone around the house and found a solution but its very cumbersome. Does anybody know a simple method that does streaming that is reliable.
Many thanks in advance

Put bubbleupnp on both the storage\server phone and on the phone you want to be the player. Think there are a few YouTube videos on how to use it. That's what I use personally.

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.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
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
