Is there any custom roms with Miracast support for TF101? Is it stable enough to everyday use (I hope at least these are working: camera, mic, dock, gps)? Have you tried yet that Miracast thing?
Thanks,

BUMP!
I didn't get any replies so let me ask again.
[ROM][4.2 JB MR1] Team EOS 4 *JELLYBEAN MR1* Nightlies -- TF101
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2063406
Is there Miracast support for this rom? At least it is 4.2 version of Android that should contain that Miracast thing.
Is there 4.2 version of CyanogenMod 10 available for TF101?

I found that this ROM should support Miracast but it seems that it is not so popular than those other roms.

I just try to find some answers before I will choose one for test round. I think I will buy "Netgear PTV3000 Push2TV HD" and connect it to my TV. So any comments about Miracast are mostly welcome!
If you dont know what is Miracast
Miracast is a peer-to-peer wireless screencast standard created by the Wi-Fi Alliance. Billed as an open alternative to Apple's AirPlay Mirroring, it allows users to, for example, echo display from a phone made by Company A onto a TV made by Company B, share a laptop screen with the conference room projector in real-time, and watch live programs from a home cable box on a tablet. Miracast connections are formed via Wi-Fi Direct, which allows direct Wi-Fi connections in a similar manner to bluetooth.Miracast only works over Wi-Fi. It cannot be used to stream to a router access point.
On 29 October 2012, Google announced that Android version 4.2 (updated version of Jelly Bean) will support the Miracast wireless display standard, and by default will have integrated features for it. As of January 8, 2013, the Nexus 4, Sony Xperia Z, ZL, T and V officially support the function.

After reading a little about it, it seems you need to be certified to use it, and the TF101 isn't in the list. Funny though that people report the Nexus 7 has having it but it's not listed there... So maybe you don't actually need to be certified... or maybe Google just didn't feel like listing themselves on there.
I can also confirm that the ROM in my sig (EOS4 - 4.2 JB MR1) does not have any extra options in the display settings. So unless the option is hidden elsewhere, I think it's safe to assume it's not there at all.

Thanks for the information.
Following HowTo is based of this ROM --> [ROM][WiP] Android 4.2 on TF101 | v0.8.0 XMAS | 4.2 GAPPS"
How To Install CM10.1 Android 4.2.1 Jelly Bean on TF101 ASUS Eee Pad Transformer
//androidjinn.com/how-to-install-cm10-1-android-4-2-1-jelly-bean-on-tf101-asus-eee-pad-transformer.html (I cannot post outside links yet so I removed H T T P in beginning of the URL)
That HowTo mentions about Miracast support but I'm not sure anymore is it just some Android 4.2.1 copy/paste information. If anyone use that ROM could you check is there any Miracast settings available?
I'd also like to get an answer for this if anyone has already tested these roms.
thx.
if we can'tget miracast, there's an app named MirrorOp
give it a try. not bad...
One discussion about why Miracast isn't enabled in the custom roms?

I understand that there could be some problems when TF101 use 2.4 ghz wifi and it lack 1080p resolution. But I think it all just speculation until some one enable that Miracast code and test it. We don't have any word from our Rom developers about this Miracast thing. They should actually enable it, take a look the code and test it. It would be nice feature to listen Spotify using your TV with Hifi amplifier or just watch movies with lower 720p hd resolution if that is possible with our tablet.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was proprietary code put into android that us mortals won't have access to.

Hello together.
Are there any news regarding an Android 4.2.2 Custom Rom for the TF101 with Miracast support.
I have a new LG TV Model 47LA7408 and I would like to use the second screen feature to stream the tv programm to my Tablet. But this requires Android 4.2.2 with Miracast.
Thank you for replies.
There are only a VERY FEW Android devices that support Miracast. ALL of these devices have 5 GHz radios, as do the TV's that support Miracast as well.
It is safe to say that the TF101 will not ever support Miracast.
Best option that I have found is to use an app that can connect to a DLNA server/player to play movies/videos from my tablet and put them on the TV.
Either that or get an HDMI cable and plug that in to your tablet to put the picture on the screen.

Hmm...
It can be done if you use a slingbox. But that can be a bit expensive...

My TV has a feature called second TV/ Second Screen. This gives the user the possibility to stream the tv signal to the LG remote APP on the users android. But this feature requires Android 4.2.2 and Miracast.

Then you will need a Miracast certified device: http://certifications.wi-fi.org/sea...ate_to=&selected_certifications[]=67&x=37&y=8
Miracast uses 5 GHz, which the TF101 does not have. To use this feature on the TF101 you would need to add a 5GHz radio and get it functioning (driver) and then see about enabling Miracast in the ROM.
I would love to have Miracast support on my TF101, but I do realize that it is 2 year old hardware and it is not supported or practical at this point.
Hi guys
You doesn't need any of the patches or 3rd party apps.
You just need to follow these steps in order to use cast screen in custom roms:
1. Just enable wifi 'on'
2.Open cast & it shows all available devices:fingers-crossed:
Hi!
I am planning to buy TASKER app in order to control my TV Android HDMI Dongle. But I'm not sure whether it will work or not? I would appreciate if anyone has some experience with this and inform me or guide me to relevant information source.
Thanks.
Do these Android TV boxes from China run an Android TV version of Android?
I was wondering if I would be able to cast from a PC (Chrome browser + cast plugin) to one of these boxes as a receiver. If not, I'm contemplating just getting a Chromecast, but these boxes offer so much more functionality.
PS. What requirements do devices need to have to qualify as a receiver for casting?
Thanks in advance
Hey ho.
Has anyone ever tried to get the Google Cast Receiver working on the tablet?
As it seems not possible to just install the Google Cast Receiver app, because Google made sure only official devices are being talked to, I was wondering if it may be possible to port the SHIELD TV receiver to the tablet.
Any experiences?
Hello, I have a samsung smart tv and dedicated camera for that: SAMSUNG CY-STC1100. The skype application used to run on the TV, but it has lost support.
I plan to buy the H96 Pro tv dongle (android) and my question is if the camera connected to it will handle that?
After smart tv stopped supporting skype I found older version of skype(for various TV series) with drivers(inter alia to camera) which was installed from a pendrive and this worked wonderfully, but now it doesn't work. If you don't know the solution, could you recommend a camera that works on the android box?
