I recently bought a non-branded Android M Phone with a STOCK Marshmallow. I can't find an option to cast or mirror screen to TV, although I've used my Android L5.1 to mirror the screen to my Samsung Series 5 Smart TV for a while. My questions are, do all android M phones miss the screen mirroring feature? Or just my phone's developer didn't build screen mirroring in the stock ROM? Can I somehow cast my screen to my Samsung Smart TV by another app or something?

It's not a "standard" feature for all marshmallow devices.
Try some of these apps. If your hardware doesn't support mirroring then you won't be able to do it no matter what you do.

Screen Mirroring
I did use the first app that you provided in the link. It seems to work but my TV says unable to connect. (And my phone supports Screen Mirroring too). I think it's a problem of settings. How would i configure in for connecting it to my TV?

I'm looking for a good reliable screen mirroring app for the Nexus 5 running Android 5.0 Lollipop to get the Android screen on my pc.
i've used BBQScreen, but that doesn't work anymore since 5.0
Mobizen, Allcast, Screen Stream Mirroring, those apps don't work at all.
Preferably one that has a Windows client.
And i need WiFi.
New and need help please. I have not been able to get the screen casting o mirroring to work with my NVIDEA Shield Tablet WI-FI. I had Android 5.1.1. and now have 6.0 and no change. I am able to pair the two Android devices and both say connected but when I press Cast it has never indicated any available devices. Is it not able to Cast to another Android device? I am trying to screen cast to the Epson Movario BT-200 glasses which has Android 4.0.1 but also Miracast. My Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.4 inch is able to screen mirror to the Epson glasses but it gets a bit laggy. So I thought the NVIDEA Shield tablet would have more power but I am not able to get the Tablet to recognize the glasses in Screen Cast even though it does recognize and even connect to the glasses over WIFI. Have tried 2.4 GHz, 5GHz, and Auto band modes. Unfortunatly there is no Android update for Epson BT-200 glasses and likely never will be. I have rooted all devices and have tried about 7 different screen mirroring apps. (Epson Glasses do not allow Google Play store without rooting and some apps won't load).
Any advice welcome. I don't mind spending the time trying. I am not really smart but I was able to get my Shield tablet out of a boot loop by flashing new .img over USB from my PC through DOS command prompts, so I can usually figure it out with time.
Miracast hasn't worked on my original shield tablet since 5.0 update. I had used a Belkin to miracast, it's firmware is current and works with W8 and W10, and several older Android devices...I think it really only casts to Google cast devices now!

Hi,
I have tried alot and always failed Is there anyone who tried mirroring Xperia XZ to Samsung smart TV series 5?
if yes, can you help me in that?
Thanks,
In phone U have a miracast and TV also have screen mirroring option turn it on and connect a phone to TV that's all.
I have Samsung 6 series TV, Just turn on the screen mirroring option on your phone, on your tv just make sure that you select the allow option. You are done
Thanks for replies...
The problem is I cant see my TV from the phone. I use wifi direct and I get connected.
Then I open screen mirroring, but cant find the TV. I go to the source list in the TV and cant see the screen mirroring. I go to all share menu in the TV and cant find my phone. I even tried to connect to my TV wireless from my wifi list and nothing works as well.
Can you share the exact steps?
Thanks,
so any detailed instructions?
Are you running stock nougat? after the nougat update Google broke miracast, you can fix it with this guide I wrote up awhile back https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-xz/how-to/guide-fix-miracast-screen-mirroring-t3583743

Thanks alot for your reply... but do you think there is any solution for non-rooted device?
Has anyone found a way to screen cast? I've seen and tried a build prop edit that at least allows cast to recognize TV but won't actually allow the screen cast to "beam" the display over. I've read android took away the native functionality at some point, but my HTC 10 worked fine. Any thoughts?

I'm running stock rooted and I can cast just fine to my Sony tv or to my apple tv just by selecting it from the devices shown without any build.prop edits.

Casting works fine for me too.
Doesnt work when using an app that prohibts it like NFL app or MLB app.
Is that what you are asking to cast?
I just go to Settings->Display->Cast.
I have tried this on stock/pureNexus/rooted/unrooted.
I have a Sony TV. Runs some version on Android.
Be on the same Wi-Fi?
I don't know what else to say.

Nope, just straight up mirror my phone screen. Never had issues with it before on any phone I tried...My son's iPhone and wife's new G6 both do it. And funny you should mention NFL Mobile, that is how I watched games on the road to n a hotel, mirroring to hotel room TV.
Edit...My bust after thinking about, it was DirecTV/Sunday ticket, never tried the NFL Mobile app.
I just tried to cast the phone's screen to my Smart TV(Sony) - didn't work.
Here are the steps I take when trying to connect Pixel phone:
-Go to WiFi Direct settings on the phone
-Put TV in screen mirror mode(input)
-TV's name/model appears on the pixel phone
-Tapping on the above name/model, just says "Invited"
-On TV's screen, under devices nothing comes up
-If I go to settings>display>cast on the pixel, there is nothing in the list. On Nexus 7 I was able to select "enable wireless display" in the menu.
I took the same steps in the past with my Nexus 7 (2013) tablet and it works properly. As a matter of fact I still have my tablet and tested just now - works fine. I believe Pixel either missing the feature or has a support for a different mirroring mode which my TV isn't compatible with. I do know that my TV works with Miracast.
I just found this tread...which seems to point out that Google possibly removed the feature.
hi, samsung has eliminated screen cast and wants us to only use samsung tv for screen mirroringwith oppo I have screencast that automatically does the wifi direct and the screen can be seen on the tv without using any router. unfortunately samsung has removed screencast from the top menu.is there any way to replenish the drop down menu with screencast?
bump???
