Hello XDA Experts
I recently bought google chromecast as i was super excited about it. Its really good. It would have been excellent if the app was updated with cast screen capability for Sansung Galaxy S4 Mini. I was bit disappointed but with a hope that google keeps updating apps to keep its customers happy. I recently read in your forum that we can enable native screen casting using mirror enabler apk. I tried the following
1) Make my device root capable
2) Installed Mirror-Enabler APK
3) Installed SQL Lite root
after setting up with the above i tried cast screen option in chromecast app but it didnt work. I keep getting "casting screen to chromecast has ended" message . Screen casting works for say 5 to 10 secs max then i get the above message.
Please help experts.
Would the allshare fix from the gt-i9300 work any?

Hi,
I'm trying to have my Samsung galaxy note pro 12.2 mirror the screen to a chromecast connected to a tv.
When I try to choose share screen in the chromecast app (latest version) it freezes the tablet so a home-power is needed.
Casting works fine from the youtube and Ted apps.
Any solutions to this?
Thanks in advance

Hello to all,
i would like to know if Chromecast works well on the Galaxy S6 with:
1) ScreenMirroring ?
2) 1080p 60fps made with the phone (smooth playback on TV) ?
3) 4K made with the phone (smooth playback on TV) ?
I really would like to buy this phone and because of the missing MHL port i want to know if it works fine with the above mentioned points.
Thanks a lot

i'm still waiting for the s6 but i have a s4 and a chromecast dongle
when samsung didnt changed anything i'm afraid the default "screen mirroring" function will not find your chromecast
it is only supported by samsung tv/dvd/etc..
you can add a AllShare Cast hub because as far i know this is the only supported receiver
BUT you can allways use the chromecast app to mirror your screen wich works quite well with most things
1080p is ok but i suppose 4K will not work well...
I'm afraid that clonednull is right. I have an S6 and a chromecast and it doesn't find it when using the built in screen mirroring. You have to use the Chromecast app to initiate it.
I had no idea this would be a thing. It used to worked with Nexus 5.
Could this be a Google issue and not Samsung?
The s6 is not on the list of supported devices at the moment. One can hope.

It is working quite well. I bought one for my partner which works with my S6
You have to use the Chromecast app, but Screenmirroring is supported, as are some of the basic apps like Youtube.
But of course the quality is not as good as it would have been using an MHL-Adapter( if that was possible).

It's working for me on the s6. I didn't watch a whole movie, but I got it to connect with Amazon instant video with screen mirroring. When you first turn on Chromecast in the upper left there is a menu that says "devices." In that menu you will find screen mirroring. It says it's a beta version.
There are already 2 things about this phone that Irk me.. Both being chromecast compatibility and MHL. I hope these issues can get worked out ASAP. dont know why samsung could not make the device at least MHL compatible...

Hi guys I have an ATV120 Mygica or Enjoy TV i think they are the same. It is running with Android 4.1 and there is this perfect App with streaming tv channels live, I have used on other ATV310B and ATV510B, but somehow on this one it is not working. I get the sound but no video support. I just get on the screen unsupported video. Is there anything I can do to it ?
