Miracast Support? - Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
My grandpa would like to watch YouTube on his living room TV, and you never say no to your grandpa
So, I recalled Galaxy S3 has Miracast support for mirroring and I ordered a Miracast dongle. However, It seems he don't have Galaxy S3, but a Galaxy S3 Neo+. I couldn't find any option to turn on Miracast on the stock phone (even though it has WiFi Direct) and when download an app from the market, it indeed opens Miracast/mirroring settings windows I could not access from the Settings, but scanning does not seems to work at all.
Anyone had managed to get Miracast working on S3 Neo? I prefer not to root and install a new ROM if possible.
Thanks!

Is there a way for the N7 to work with Samsung Allshare Cast Wireless Hub?

Hi all,
The title mostly says it all.
I know that the Allshare Wireless Cast Hub Link only works with S3 and Note 2.
My wife has a Galaxy Note 2 and wants to buy that but I think it too expensive just to find out that one device would only work with it. I have Original Note, N7, and HP Touchpad (running Android) and hoping to make it work with this hub ... making it a justifiable purchase.
It looks like you need to enable Allshare cast in the Note 2 (from settings) in order for it to communicate with the Allshare hub.
From GN2 > Settings > More Settings > AllShare Cast > On or Off
which means that it is not apk based
I have a rooted N7 so I don't mind playing around with it.
But do you think this would even be possible?
Thanks

I have one of these - Samsung Wi-Fi Display Hub for Galaxy S2/S3/S4/Note 2 - Black . Works well but I did find you need "Official" statuses in both bootloader and settings to work with my Note 10.1. Haven't tried with my S4... This is for total screen mirrorring. It shows everything I do on my tablet on screen...
The DLNA sharing is only for movies, music and pictures...
I have a Samsung TV and the DLNA works well...
My advice, look at the reviews and buy the cheapest if the TV you have doesn't support DLNA... I'd check that 1st...

My tv supports DLNA but I'm only interested on screen mirroring.
So that means even if I but the hub it won't work for me because I using omega rom?

Probably not though I have read in the note 10.1 forum of it working. Not to my experience however. I use a rooted stock rom on my SG Note 10.1 I have flashed using Mobile ODIN. I run triangle away 1st and get all Status's "Official" with 0 flash count but when I tried flashing other roms it went ass up... You might be able to try the workaround on triangle away but that requires the paid app...

Thanks. I can buy the app, that's no problem.
So all I need to get for screen mirroring is the hub not the dongle right?
Yep, the hub mirrors everything but the dongle actually says its a DLNA dongle...
screen mirroring
Purchase the allshare dongle, plug in to available hdmi slot, turn on your screen mirroring on your phone, dongle should be recognized...If you get error msg that cannot connect or find the dongle, make sure you have the latest firmware update for the allshare dongle

Screen mirroring how?
I'm rooted and safestrapped and running on beans ROM and mirror works fine thru MHL adapter... typing this out on my flatscreen with bluetooth mouse and keyboard as we speak... just got done playing GTA with sixaxis PS3 controller and all that mirrored well also. (Eats battery like crazy though)
I am talking about thru my samsung all share cast hub you press screen mirroring and it does not connect there is a fix for the note tablet 2014 and other samsung devices but i do not think there is one for this one.
Here is a example of what I am talking about
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2421642
I've been looking if there was a way to get the mirroring to function with any rendering device... I have multiple htpcs in my house all with xbmc, I can send video music whatever to it being xbmc broadcasts the pc on the network as a dmr device, but the stock mirroring on the phone doesn't recognize it
Did you find a solution yet? I've been trying to do it with the Fire TV stick. It finds it, says it's connecting but won't connect.

Screen cast lollipop

Hello,
A bought a new LG tv with wifi direct. I can't cast my phone screen to the TV. It worked flawlessly on kitkat, so i guess google took away the feature, to force us to use their stupid chromecast thing (why the hell would i want that if i have a wifi enabled tv??). Is there a way to do it in lollipop? I must say that i'm very disappointed in google. They keep removing useful features.
In the pull down menu in Lollipop it is called "Cast Screen". Works with my Fire TV.

I have a LG TV with wifi direct. Many devices work flawlessly with miracast including the nexus 4. Only one was unable to which was windows lumia 625. Might be problem with the phone itself.
btw Are you using any old ported rom? You need to have new binaries for wireless display to work flawlessly
