[Q] Screen mirroring with Microsoft wireless display adapter - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey,
i could link my previous phone (note2) with my widi adapter however i fail everytime with my G920F
anyone else having this issue?

Hi,
yeah she problem he with my S6 edge.
It says 'connecting to S6..." and never connect.
had no problems with my previous S4.
Did you get any updates about this issue??
are you rooted too?

Finally made my rooted S6 edge works with the Microsoft Wireles Adapter !
I was trying to contact support from Microsoft, but was having a hard time finding how to reach them for this problem (even tried calling them on phone).
And by chance i see there is a fw update for the adapter. So i updated the firmware (through the application on a Win 8.1 laptop) to version 1.3.8220 (dated 26th May 2015).
And voilà ! My S6 edge is now able to connect to the adapter

I had the same problem. Closing the app and starting it again while being connected to the adapter fixed it for me.

I had to update the display to work with an S6 to 1.3.2880. Worked fine with a 950/640XL/S3 on the 1.2 firmware. I also had to make sure I was connected to the display BEFORE launching the app, or it would not show me the update option.

OPO not connecting to Nikon WiFi

Hi,
I recently bought a Nikon Coolpix P610 with built-in WiFi. When I tried to connect my OPO (factory ROM, up-to-date with OTA to 5.1.1 Cyanogen 12.1-YOG4PAS3JL) with the camera WiFi, my cellphone never reach to an IP address.
I have installed the app "Wireless Mobile Utility" from Nikon. I read that the app is compatible with several phone but the OPO isn't on the list so it might not work, but i need it to work.
The camera work just fine because I tried with a Samsung Galaxy S3 mini and it was okey.
I wonder if anyone had the same problem and could fix it or if you can help me to figure it out.
I tried to connect it through an static IP instead DHCP but I failed, I don't know if i'm doing it right.
Thankys in advance

As far as I know, Nikon Cooplix P610 doesn't have the WPS button, and the menu doesn't have the option like in D5300. So, you are forced to connect the smart device trough a tipical WiFi connection, like if the camera was a modem. And it didn't work :s

You don't need wps button , in 5300 connect using wps is inside WiFi settings ,so maybe your cam has that too

No, like I said, I did search the menu of D5300 and it's different to P610's menu. That's why I'm so concern about this because my only option is connect the smart device through a typical WiFi network generated by the camera.
I think that the problem is in my phone settings or how to fix it through a static IP addres, not at the camera, but I don't know how to solve it
Hi.. I am facing the same problem, not able to connect my one plus 2 with nikon d5300. Have got WMU installed, the phone says connected however camera shows not connected and when i open the app, it also says not connected... Please advise.

Hi. I have to say that with the following OTA of my phone that I received the problem was solved. So, I can't help you.
What can I say to you is that I talked to the Oneplus Support and they were very gentle and after like two months talking trying to explain my problem I managed to make an online appointment where they study my phone. Finally, because of my PC's operating system they couldn't upload some files in my phone to solve the problem. But the analyst I was talking said he would raise my problem to developers, and in fact, they solved the problem in the next update. If you really need this solved, you should try to talk to support, even most in your case, because your device has Oxygen.
I hope my answer helps you. Regards.

Bluetooth issue (Nikon SnapBridge)

Hello all.
I use Nikon SnapBridge to control my Nikon DSLR.
It connects over Bluetooth from within the app.
It does not add a paired device in android itself.
The problem i have when pairing is after accepting the security keys on the Camera and the S7.
After that the name of the camera dissapears and connection fails from that point.
At first i thought it might be an issue with compatibility because its not one of the most stable apps out there.
But when trying it on my friends stock s7 it worked.
Is there any thing i can do to fix this or am i overseeing something?
mine started doing this after the nougat update, I suspect there is an issue with how nikon creates the connection in snapbridge that no longer works in nougat
yesterday I updated my Note 5 from 6.0.1 to 7.0 and can confirm that the snapbridge app is not longer connecting with the phone. after checking the pairing code on both devices the app stops with pairing failed while the cam D5600 still thinks everything is alright. hope there is an app fix soon.
greets
Timo
It does the same thing on my LG G6. The reviews for SnapBridge are dreadful. I have not been able to make it work at all with a couple of different android devices. And based on reviews online, the app is basically a failure.
Ok same here with galaxy s8. Still no solution?
Nikon snapbridge is fixed. Finally

Hey can you try doing what I did with my problem and see if it works? That is, disabling the Google App. Let me know if it did something.

Hey guys,
I know this thread was originally focusing on issues with snapbridge and Bluetooth, but I am wondering if anyone knows if Snapbridge doesn't support wifi on Android Nougat? Phone is Note 8.
I can't get my camera to connect over wifi at all. Every time I try to connect Nikon D5600 to wifi I get "this option is not available at current settings or in cameras current state." I tried updated camera to firmware 1.02 because it said it had some Android fixes but so far I still get that same error.
Thanks in advance.
I just bought a d850 and at first attempt to connect snapbridge, phone, and camera, it worked on my s7 however after 20 min it completely dropped the wifi not the Bluetooth. I pain stakenly tried to reconnect wifi but was unsuccessful. At this point it was time for an upgrade so I got the S9+ and the app did the same exact thing, no wifi, only Bluetooth. The odd thing is that it works on my Asus tablet and worked at first connection on the s7. I am left baffled and would like to enjoy full res and remote control with phone to my d850. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do?

MirrorLink not working after update to Android 7

My Samsung S6 SM-G920I with Android 6.01 was working fine on mirrorlink connect to my Honda Jazz 2015.
But my phone can't connect to my car anymore after update to Android 7.0 nougat few days ago. My car touch screen shows " Smartphone not compatible" and my phone screen gone black with" Your device and car are connected via MirrorLink". I re-connect and restart my phone & car many times...no luck.
I tried change USB cable and repair Bluetooth, still doesn't work. I can not downgrade back to Android 6.01.
I contacted with Samsung Technical support Australia. Their answer is: "the mirror link no longer functioning since Android 7 Nougat update released, although Samsung phone's setting still has mirror link optional setup. They can not do anything about it. That is Google's problem." What?
Samsung should warn all the user such function will be removed before they update the firmware to Android Nougat 7.0.
Could anyone help me for this issue, please.
Thank you very much.
Same here; Updated to Nougat, Mirrorlink is no longer functioning. I purchased Sygic Navigation specifically because this was the only navigation app supported by Mirrorlink. Anyone got any ideas?
I have 2 galaxy s 7 one IS factory unlocked and other international unlocked international model still working after 7.0 update but US model no more working and I guess mirror link version might be different in my 2 devices. Hope once the mirror link in the vehicle is update possibly will work
@Louis Che
Louis, Did you find solution for this problem ?
Thanks.

Android Auto

Hi,
Did somebody try to use an android auto function? My car (Peugeot 308SW 2018) and the phone not connecting with latest (8.1.0) android version. I tried to enable an USB debugging (as workaround recommendation), but nothing changed...
Have you other idea or working solution?
thx!

Yes, it works perfectly in my mid 2017 Kia Cee'd SW. Check if you have android auto enabled(i have the option to disable it and the apple car play). Also, the usb cable is working properly when connecting to a pc?
At the car side is enabled, at phone side i didnt found any additional options...
The best result was the android auto icon at phone appears and disappears continously with 2-3 different cables.
Is it possible the car head unit firmware not compatible with N7P latest SW version?

Doubt it. The car is from this year, it seems unlikely(to me) that the firmware wasn't up to date.
Stupid question, you have the android auto app installed on the phone right? Android has a Car Mode but to use android auto you need to install the app 1st(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.projection.gearhead&hl=en). If the link says that you have no compatible device, download the latest version from here(https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/android-auto/)
For almost a year I thought my head-unit wasn't up to date as the android auto would freeze, the app would say that the head-unit wasn't up to date, waze would display random artefacts, etc.
Now with the N7p it is butter smooth, no funky stuff and way more responsive that when I was trying to use it with my Redmi 4 Prime(same cable but with a micro-b to usb c adapter)...
No issues with AA in Seat Ateca 2018.
Everything works like a charm.
For phonecalls, you need to select default sim first, otherwise the call hangs on a sim selection prompt on the phone.
I write to nokia support and they send:
- clear the bluetooth cache
- do a soft reset
after this steps working fine...
what is Bluetooth cache?

You found here, how to clear: http://support.hereplus.me/hc/en-us/articles/115003497328-Clearing-your-Bluetooth-Cache-Android-/
Do you install android auto app on your smartphone ? some lands doesn't have android auto on the play store, so you need to download manually on apk mirror web site (arm64 version)
A good quality cable is also needed.
I'm having similar issues.
This phone won't work in both my VW cars.
If I clear all settings it works fine.
I get to my destination, unplug and then when I head out on my next trip it doesn't. Just a blank screen on the head unit and the phone has the green screen saying launch Android Auto on the head unit.
Tried the BT cache clearing as above. Will try a factory reset of the phone shortly too otherwise wait for pie and if still no go then sell the phone which I will miss
Though can't work without Android Auto now
It is definitely problem with Nokia 7 plus. In my car it connect and after few minutes black screen and solution is only disconnect and connect again.

I've found the bluetooth with my N7P poor anyway. This is my second one and the same as the first.
All HMD will do is send you a list of the bluetooth protocols they support.
So you may need to change your car ?
My 7+ works perfectly now.
Enable USB debugging and disable the extreme power saving settings.

MI TV stick self turn on after latest update

Hi.
I've checked 3 pcs of Mi TV stick - each time after updating to latest update the stick is turning on by itself in 20 seconds after turning off by remote.
The new piece from box before update is ok, after installing latest update same issue. Does Xiaomi knows some solution to this bug?

I have the same problem bro. Still not found the solution.
I got the solution - at least that worked for me. The problem was with charging adapter from xiaomi phone. When stick was charged from PC USB slot then no problem with turning on by itself. It seems those sticks need power from low voltage sources like PC USB or TV USB (that I didnt check). Try it.
In my case there is no difference. TV Stick turning on by itself no matter if it was in TV USB, PC USB or plugged in charged which came in package.
It was my 2nd TV Stick because 1st was sended back because of classic problem with remote - losing connection and you need to unplug the device.
Unfortunately I have same issue with latest PI.1727. It's not able to stay in standby. On my side I'm sure it's a reason of updated hdmi-cec code. Once upon a time I was able to shutdown both tv and stick with a single button click. It's a dream now. I wish we were able to downgrade firmware.
Same issue on brand new Mi TV Stick updated to PI.1727. It wakes up with no reason.
Same issue here. I can shutdown MiStick + Tv, but I can't turn on both devices from remote using HDMI-CEC.
And both devices turn on automatically every day at same hour.
