Hi
I have a P40 pro running on normal HMS. I tried to screen cast it on my Philips TV running on android with inbuild chromecast.
My phone could not find my TV. I have checked all the settings and it is as it should be. It works normal with my old P20 pro (of course on a GMS).
So I couldnot use the "wireless projection" or mirror my screen on my TV.
I have also tried third party apps but they often come with a lot of bugs and bad cast quality.
Interestingly though, in youtube vanced the option of linking to TV works and it could cast as normal. But I want to cast other applications as well through mirroring the screen.
Does anyone know a solution for this?
Thank you in advance

Hello, first of all.
It's been a long time since I have visited this place, so excuse me please if I missed a similar thread. I have searched for it.
My question is if it this possible to turn my old Motorola XT 720 into an Android TV box (i.e. Chromecast or similar).
I have tried CheapCast app that only crashed when opening YouTube. This phone has a HDMI port and I assumed it can connect through it to my Philips TV, which is not a smart TV, but a regular HD TV.
The only connection I was able to create was the built-in version of media gallery from phone which has the option to display the pictures from phone on TV screen (proving there is a working connection at least).

This should be possible as the device has the ability to use another display. I would recommend using something like Tablet Remote or other similar apps on the Play store so instead of using the device as a chrome cast you can use it as a full media center device connected to your TV. By using one of these apps you would play videos directly through your device instead of "casting" them. This should hopefully work arround the issue of apps like CheapCast crashing.
Hope I could help and good luck
Thank you, Tablet Remote works good between the 2 Android phones. Still working on it.
I am also working on this route, trying to make use of my screen-broken Xperia Z. However apart from using as mediacenter with kodi, it would be nice if I could properly emulate chromecast. I would love to see a nexus android TV Rom being able to drive my phone, is anybody working on that?

I've looked for a few days to find if there's a 'best practice' way to mirror from my Note 3 to a Vizio smart tv (E422VA) (without having to purchase a dongle or other box to do this). I half expected this would be easy to find, but after a couple of days searching all over I haven't found an obvious solution yet.
Is there no app that will work with Vizio smart tv's (there appears to be with some other tv's)? The goal is simply to get anything I play on my Note 3 to show on the tv as well, not just media stored on the phone. If I'm streaming something full screen on the phone, watching a show or whatever, it would be nifty to just tap a 'sling' icon and poof..play it on the tv. This Vizio does come with some apps built-in (Netflix, Youtube, Hulu, etc.) and it's connected via wifi to the home net, so those do work. But so far I've come up blank on how to mirror any streaming video on the phone to the tv.
I'd appreciate any suggestions from anyone who knows how to make it work.
Thanks..
Hi,
Try asking in this General thread: [HELP THREAD] Ask ANY Question. Noob Friendly.
Sorry, I can't find on this forum in latest post, is it possible to enable screen mirroring on Google Pixel 1 XL (latest Android Pie) to Samsung TV UE65MU7xxx.
I would like to send everything I see on android screen to my TV set, without buying additional device, like Google Chromecast.
I am able to send videos, photos, music via android Samsung app Smart View, or send video, music, photos via some other apps that uses DLNA.
Please can you provide me with some info, I can't find anything about that here on forum. Do I need to root and what to do.
Thank you.
Hi,
I'm looking for a recent Android TV Box (Android 9 or 10) model that supports screen rotation either via the Settings configuration or using a 3rd party app.
My idea is to be able to play games like Pinball where the screen is rotated.
I'll deeply appreciate any recommendations.
I have a T9 4G/32GB Android 9 (rockchip RK3318) and changing the build.prop file didn't work. (any ideas?)
Thank you in advance.
Luis

Hey so to start off I am not sure if this is the right thread to post this but here it goes.
I have a Samsung 43" 4K Smart LED TV. Model Code: (UN43MU6300). Current software version as of writing this on (6/21/21): ( T-KTMAKUC-1290.3 , BT - S).
I was wondering if their was any way of jailbreaking/modifying my TV to install 3rd party applications such as a cracked YouTube (YouTube Vanced).
I have Pi-Hole running on my network but even with all the ad blocking scripts i have for it, it does not stop ads from coming through on my Smart TV. If anyone can help me with this I would really appreciate it; thanks!
