Hello XDA,
I have just discovered that the OPO does NOT support MHL OR SlimPort. While this is disappointing it is not the end of the world.
I do however have an NEX 4000 radio head unit in my car which displays my phones apps such as google maps / waze / pandora ONTO the head unit via mirrorlink.
I cannot find any information on whether the OPO supports mirrorlink or not. I would just use HDMI to do full screen mirroring with touch but since it lacks MHL AND SlimPort that is not an option.
mirrorlink is really my last hope to get my phone apps onto my head unit. If I cannot get this to work, well idk haha, its kind of an important feature to me to have navigation on my card head unit instead of holding a phone or mounting a tiny screen to the window.
Hmm, interesting
I don't think OPO supports Mirrorlink.
As you mentioned the HDMI port, I'm not sure if you could make use of Chromecast mirroring for your purpose.

chromecast requires a WiFi network to be set up. I COULD use mirracast to stream the visual aspect but I want to use the touch screen on my head unit as well as I don't see the logic in trying to be "safe" by using a bigger screen that I don't have to hold for nav if I still have to look at my phone to interact with the OS.
It seams mirrorlink is really just a software feature (since OPO supports USB OTG its only a sw limit). HTC is "adding" mirrorlink to the one (they just announced this monday). And it seems there are a few ROMs out there that already added the capability to the M7.
Does anyone have any experience in adding software features like this to roms?

Right.
I have only seen mirrorlink on HTC, Sony and Samsung devices. Looks like those are mirrorlink certified products.
There will be a lot of sw hacking to make mirrorlink available for OPO. But mirrorlink on OPO would be awesome
My new car is coming in February and it will have MirrorLink.
It would be nice if I could use it with the Oneplus One
i wish i could use mirror link with the oneplus one as well

Any updates on this?
I just got a new headunit for my car and found out it supports Mirrorlink, does anyone know if theres a working Mirrorlink on the OPO? cheers
still nothing?
Anyone wanna take a stab at trying to get it working?
I'd also love to see this happen. Would a bounty help?
April 2016
It's been a while since there have been any comments on this.... Can anyone from OnePlus or anyone on the XDA forums at least indicate whether anyone is at least working on MirrorLink compatibility? Perhaps a port of the MirrorLink software? Something?!? Thank you!
Any news about MirrorLink to Oneplus One?
I have a DV695MB and a Chromecast. The head unit acts as a mouse input. If anyone cares I can make a video. It's the cheapest way to have a Android in your car.

That sounds cool - how does it transmit the touches?
any android with chromecast can do that...
but it is not mirrorlink related.

From phone to phone it's different so I can not really speak on it. It sucked with my one plus one but was okay with a s5.

Wrong... With my head unit I can navigate my phone by touching the head units display.
I thought chromecast only transmitted video though and mirrorlink had something else for touch control?
My head unit has what is called dualmirror. I some how get an HDMI signal from whatever Android device into my head unit, then I connect over Bluetooth which in turn acts as a Mouse. I touch the screen on my head unit where I see let's say Google maps and Google maps opens up. I super suck at explaining stuff... Sorry.
My Seat Leon says "this device doesn't support mirror link". So OPO does NOT support MirrorLink (at least cm14 nightlies).
However, Android Auto works incredibly nice.

While I know that Apple has all of their information locked up tighter than Fort Knox, I was wondering if it would be feasible to create an application to "act like" an Ipod with other hardware. IE my head unit in my car that works wonderfully with Ipod but cannot even "see" my Android phones.
If that's not possible at all, is there a way to get my head unit to see my N1 as an actual jump drive (which is supported by the unit)?

I hope I don't get beat up over this, but... "Head Unit"? I can assume you mean a Bluetooth stereo headset possibly?
My Kensington Bluetooth Stereo headset works fine with my nexus... But again, not sure if this is what you are referring to.
I think maybe he is referring to an audio in port that recognizes ipods, but not his nexus one maybe?
Im sure by head unit he means his car's stereo. and If you can get the nexus into USB drive mode your stereo should recognize it.
I am referring to a USB connection to my "car stereo". Not using Bluetooth.
When I am connected to my g/f's iPod, it works so seamlessly it's insane. Shows album art, all things are controlled directly from the head unit ....
I guess looking for an interface to communicate between the head unit and the N1. Would presume it's possible since the interface protocol is in the wild for devs. I just personally don't know a darned thing about it.

What head unit do you have, and how do you like it? (Offtopic, yes, but I'm looking for a new, good head unit for my car that has great iPod functionality. )
Well I have a double din and not sure what you require. I am running the Pioneer AVH-P3200DVD. It really has come a long way with integration. Just wish others would realize there is much more out there than Mac-n-Crap.
try and mount the phones sd card when it is plugd in to the Head Unit
and use bplayer or meridian as music app Works for me
The problem isn't the phone, it's the unit.
I have a Pioneer as well (http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-Premi..._6?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1274031647&sr=1-6)
And it's the same ****. Won't recognize my Zune at all through the USB, and it sometimes recognizes the android phone when it's set to USB, but then it grabs every audio file in the phone, which is a bunch of crap i don't want.
But anyway, It's because Pioneer only made it support/look for apple devices. So anything else it just doesn't recognize. On mine the only thing that works perfectly is a USB flash drive. i have an 8GB unit pluged in with all my music and it works perfectly. but try anything else and it rarely works.
And unfortunately, just like you said, you'd need to make the phone look like an ipod and add all that software in, which just isn't possible.
So basically, your gonna have to get it to work by mounting the USB, or using another media player such as the ones jtz100 mentioned.

Going to test out Meridian in a few but I would love to see someone emulate the iPod interface so that our phones will work with any and all "Crapple" devices.
I've just found out my S6 doesn't support MHL I've tried MHL 2 and 3 adaptors and they don't work.
I don't have a Samsung smart tv and I don't have an allshare cast (which Samsung have discontinued)
How can I screen mirror please? Am i missing something?
Oh damn. I have to even tried my mhl
The manual just talks about 2015 Samsung TVs and doesn't say anything else I can see about tv-out.
I know they leave it off the s5 mini but on a flagship device?
I've spoken to Samsung, no MHL, no all share cast support. Basically their answer was buy a Samsung smart tv. Very poor show
I was able to mirror my screen to an amazon fire TV with a note 4, has that been taken out in the s6? Guess I should just try it huh
Please try it and let me know
You can cast a video or movie through video player. That's about it.
Other than thinking everyone who wants to screen mirror will buy a Samsung smart tv why would Samsung do this?
You said exactly why. But Chromecast is cheap and so many apps are supporting it these days, this is not an issue for me.
I can also confirm, doesnt work with samsungs own mhl cable, then i bought a microsofts miracast dongle, tries to connect but fails everytime, i think the only way to screen mirror with this thing is indeed to buy a samsung smart tv, but i went to best buy last night and the rep told me it doesnt work yet because the tvs need a firmware update, then i read it will work with upcoming K series tvs, asked a samsung rep when we will see them in the US and he said 2016, are u kidding me samsung? Im seriously considering returning this phone.
Samsung SideSync
SideSync lets me display my phone on my laptop which is connected to the TV. You can supposedly drag and drop files, but I haven't tried. I can rotate the display and control my S6 using my wireless mouse and keyboard. Fun playing a game on the big screen. You can even choose to keep the phone screen active in a side by side mode. Sound transmits so now I can play music over TV from phone. Not the perfect solution, but better than nothing. Still going to look into casting via other methods (xmbc or amazon fire tv stick).
I'm trying to get video out either via MHL or HDMI from my S6E to my Alpine x009 and no luck. My alpine just says device not supported. Chromecast needs wifi so I don't think I can get it to work....I was looking forward to being able to watch Uverse while I was sitting in my truck on a 9" screen. If anyone has any luck please let me know. I just bought a chromecast to see if I can mirror my S6 to it but haven't had time yet.
Wow.. I am completely shocked.
I finished installing kodi earlier with the plan of connecting my S6 to the tv in my room via MHL like Ive done on my previous Galaxy devices for years. I did not even notice the lack of MHL on the specs and not a single review I read before making the upgrade mentioned it either. I'm assuming this would be a hardware feature and not something a firmware update could enable so this is very very disappointing. I know people are saying that chromecast is the solution but in reality it's not, especially as KODI/XBMC won't ever officially support it and the work arounds to enable support are far from perfect. Guess I'll never be able to rely on just the one device like I hoped.. it's a shame.
The last few versions of chrome have been beta testing mirroring the screen is not perfect but may be of some help
Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
The biggest thing was being able to mirror without WiFi which I think is what the newest version allows. No mhl or usb video out is ridiculous for a device that is $700-$1000 in my opinion.

Did you ever figure out how to transmit video from a S6E to an X009? Fighting that battle myself right now.
Does anyone know if either Pixel (XL) has Miracast built in? My Nexus 5 (2013) has Miracast and can cast to a wireless display. However, my Nexus 6P can not. I'm looking to finally use just one phone to connect to all my other devices (ie. TV, Spro2, PS4, and Computer monitor). I think it's sad I use my Nexus 5 (2013) just as much if not more than my Nexus 6P, being the newer phone. Hopefully if the Pixel has Miracast, I can have just one phone again. Someone PLEASE help me with your tech-savvy knowledge. :fingers-crossed:
Possible Miracast functionality
I came across this article that mentions a trick that enables Miracast support. I have not received my Pixel yet so I am unable to test. I too am interested to see if this works since I have a pico projector that uses Miracast.

I just looked at the directions. Will need root as build.prop edits are needed.
Sent from my sailfish using XDA Labs
I just went through that hack on my pixel xl adding the line to build.prop did indeed and the ability to check wiFi connect in cast settings and it actually shows that it's detecting the TV and connects but doesn't transfer video or audio hmmmm.
If anyone has successfully done this please let us know
Thanks ZR1
I have now tested this, and it does not work. It works as the last poster described. The "Enable Wireless Display" button does work now and you can pair it with a device. But once you attempt to connect to the paired device it is disconnected. Seems like it's missing some library or something.
I want to keep this thread going as I really need this feature to use in my Truck while in the back cabin. I have a Belkin Miracast Dongle and I like being able to send my movies from my phone to the TV. Help a trucker out! I'm pretty tech savy, and can grab logcats or whatever is required, message me and I'll be happy to test or gather any data for you.
Thanks in advance.
PS. Keep this thread going.
Waiting for a solution to this? I have Miracast in my car and can not cast to it
I really wish this gets resolved soon. I do impromptu powerpoint presentations and other seminars often, and I've been doing those just with my older phones and Miracast-supported TVs or projectors. Now I have to use the Microsoft WiFi Display Adaptor with the Pixel, which is fine except for those times my external monitors don't have HDMI port.
What's interesting is that I can project photos and videos from the Pixel to a Miracast TV without problem, using AllCast. However, I really need to project everything else, not just items from the gallery.

It is an app in the play store. I can cast to my Miracast Sony Bravia HDTV just fine. So, this app apparently does something that the built-in cast function doesn't.
Has anyone figured out how to get this to work? I am rooted, (XL by the way), changed the buildprop and rebooted, everything works fine, it trys to finish the pairing process for screen mirroring but nothing happens with the roku. I can screen mirror perfectly on my LG G3 so I know its not the roku, must be something with the XL. Any help wold be greatly appreciated.
I may be wrong here but my fire TV has mirroring and I searched and searched on mirroring Android phones and I read that after a certain version Google pulled the feature from the newer OTA updates. I've tried downloading apps also and nothin works.
It does but as far as I know it only works for google devices like the Chromecast. I've never been able to get it to mirror to my LG smart TV that has Miracast enabled.

I also have this question. I am trying to mirror my screen into my 2016 Honda CR-V head unit with my Google Pixel XL.
Anyone know if 3.5mm infrared blaster work with the pixel ? I've seen some online for around 5$
Should I take the plunge ?
You should try, I used my IR Blaster on my GS6 a lot and would love to have one on the Pixel
Please post some you've found, and the one you land on.
^&
I have an extended ir blaster that has a 3.5mm jack....
I'm gonna test with it first before purchasing one of the small units.
I heard some phones don't put out enough power through the 3.5mm jack so they have to use viper4android as a workaround.
The other issue is only some remote apps will work.
I will update with my findings.
I tried to link devices but this XDA app won't let me paste for some reason.
After looking around, it looks like there are a couple of different "slim" models (each sold under different names from China).
This style (Universal 3.5mm IR) consistently says it works with android
This style (Slim Keychain consistently says it does not work with android
At less than a dollar each, I ordered one of each that I linked here, but they will of course be on the slow boat from China, so I won't be able to test them for a while.
There are also others, but I really only want the slim style like the keychain version. Plus I don't want to spend a lot of money testing these.

Do you have any links for how to make viper4android a workaround? I just got this https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01M2VC6G7/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1 but can't it to work yet.
Update
After trying every possible setting in viper4android, I couldn't get the adapter to work. Putting it right up next to the ir receiver in the TV, just in case the signal was too weak, didn't help. Tried several apps. ZaZaremote recognizes that it is there, but I can't get it to send a signal.
2 other adapters are incoming, and I'll try them when they come.

There is no way that indicates it "powering on", but ZaZaRemote auto recognizes that there is an IR device attached.
I've turned up the "Playback Gain Control" in V4A, made no difference.
I tried using my Galaxy S4 (has a built in IR blaster). Using ZaZaRemote, the built in IR blaster works, but can't get the 3.5mm device to work.

Did anyone find the sleekest, Android-supporting, IR Blaster for the headphone jack (that actually works 3 to 5 meters away from the device)?
Its a real shame that none of these 3.5 mm blasters work. The built in IR blaster is one of my favorite features of the Note 4, but Samsung decided that its not popular enough for newer models. I hate to give it up.
According to this article you need to turn it on.
After you download the app “ZazaRemote”, and you plug the Jakcom IR one into the headphones jack, then you need to turn it right. That is how you turn it on. In order to turn it off you turn it left. There is no need to plug and unplug it since you can decide when you want to turn it on and off.

I don't know what it exactly means because my IR Blaster hasn't arrived yet but it seems it's saying that you need to rotate the blaster to the right when it's plugged? Or maybe there's a part that rotates?
I purchased a slim 3.5mm ir and have had no luck. The directions from china says to use zaza remote. Like mentioned in this posting zaza recognizes there is something in the headphone jack, but I haven't had any successful results. If you don't know this already you can use a phone camera to see if ir signal is lighting up by point your camera at the IR emitter on your remote control and hitting buttons on the remote. I used this method to see if anything was coming out of the 3.5mm ir in my headphone jack and I got no lights at all while using the zaza remote app.(suggested by the hardware i purchased) I also replied on eBay to the Chinese company saying it didn't work and they sent me another one with the exact same results. The part about rotating to turn it on is because 50% of the tip of the 3.5 plug doesn't have a metal contact. This means you can rotate the entire plug and its as if you don't have anything plugged in. I thought the rotate for disconnection part was clever, to bad I wasn't able to get this to work.
None work then?
I bought one from aliexpress and it didnt work.
So none of the ones tested above work? I want to use it in a Note 8. Tia!

I couldn't get my ir blaster working for ages until one app i trued had a setting use external ir toggled it on and voila! It worked. It was a cheap $1 ir blaster too
Hello All,
I was wondering if there is any sort of hdmi over type C available on the device or are we locked to casting only.
I have a dex type device that I can plug into via HDMI however i am getting no signal.
I have a feeling it might not be the cable and may be more to do with the device.\
Is there a dongle or something that I can connect to wirelessly that is not explicitly a chrome cast for screen mirroring?
Has anyone had any luck with HDMI out?
HDMI out is not a thing on Pixels in the traditional sense.
The only way I have heard being successful is listed here, with a docking station as mentioned (for the record, that's the only one I know to actually be compatible but I am sure there are others).

If you have a Chromecast or other device that casts, you can mirror your Pixel phone's screen and audio on
