As for cast service.
The native option under display settings is useless use apps like AllCast or Web Video Cast which work fine.
I have tested both of these apps and they both work just great.
AllCast has a trial period which is a cache here, but web video cast is just amazing as it has support for not only DLNA but Chromecast as well. It also has a built-in browser which will help you Casting YouTube to your TV or any wireless display you want to Cast to.

Link for AllCast

Attached pictures show that Nokia 6 successfully recognized my external Display and successful in pairing with it. Third picture shows casting of a TV show season from Nokia 6 to TV (via a DLNA support device)

I know abt the chromecast thing... But my tv supports miracast.. And so does samsung s5 and even yu yureka which is abt 6000 INR. PRICING.. so cant nokia get a new update where miracast is provided through OTA. Initially i think nokia 6 needs a device to complete its connection. Or can u provide me any 3rd party software that works similar to miracast without using any middle dongle or device for building up connection

Miracast doesnt require any device or dongle.. It works on wifi direct.. Or peer peer network..

Do we need to have chromecast for Allcast or mira ast works?!

Good idea of navigations keys turned on while charging

[Q] Universal Remote

Hi I would really like to turn my a500 into a universal remote but would like to find out witch app works the best before i go out and buy the hard ware. Is there an ir or rf sender that i can just plug into my a500 ? I have checked out digit and red eye but have gottn mixed reviews can some one help? thanks
I haven't heard of an app with an RF sender for the A500. I do know the Sony S Tablet has a built-in IR sender for this purpose.
Depending on where you live and what you want to do, there is an excellent DirecTV Remote Control app in the Android Market that does a great job. Love it. It even looks just like the original DirecTV remotes. It works over WiFi to access your HD receivers and DVRs.
I'd be interested to know if there is an IR sender/app package that works as well.
Thanks
i have found a couple apps but im not shore if there compatible with the a500. i dont want to spend the money for the hardware if its not.
My Samsung tv Works great with the Samsung remote app .. i Can control my tv with my tablet . play games on the tv and type into the tv apps with the a500 keyboard . for posting on facebook yahoo and so on the tv apps.. B
But as said above This is over wifi .. the tv has to be behind the same router as the tablet .can also send movies from and to the tv with the tabler..
no ir reciever in the a 500 you would first have to find kernel / drivers for the ir hardware you choose and have a app written to contol your tv.. this is likely propritaty function depending on brand . if you have a smart tv check and see if it supports remote access over wifi ..

Universal Remote?

Looking for a remote I can use with my TV (not connected to the internet ) to control smile functions such as channel and volume up and down power and input. Is it possible to download one from the play store or side load one if there is none? I need it to work on a Samsung plasma tv.
I appreciate your help!
I don't believe the Nexus 7 has the required IR Transmitter to accomplish this. If, however, your TV supports Bluetooth, then it very well may be possible if your TV company has released an app to do this.

Cast Screen not working with Cyanogenmod 12.1

Hi,
I have run the latest few versions of the nightly build for 30/7 and 31/7, up to the latest, 10/8. I have carried out a full wipe of the system, and almost everything works much better than with the Lollipop stock ROM.
This issue I have is with the Cast Screen. It will connect to Miracast (An LG TV, Samsung TV and a Roku 3) and also to an EZCast dongle. However, All that is displayed is a black screen. Bothe systems say that the phone is connected, it is just that the screen is not mirrored.
I can display video via Bubble UPNP to the EZCast and TVs, but that is all.
Here's hoping that others have seen this and can help.
Regards, Richard
I am facing the same situation mine would connect for a second and then just disconnect- very happy with CM12.1 otherwise but cannot find a solution for it anywhere. If you do pls share
Use all cast https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.cast works perfectly for me on RR rom
I don't think that Allcast is an answer. Bubble UPNP already works, but that also will not allow for screen casting, which is what I wanted to do.

Screen mirroring - Black screen, only sound.

Hi,
My NP runs under the original ROM, (6.0.1).
It works well when I cast Youtube or a video thru the cast option.
The screen mirroring only cast audio, the screen remains black.
I use a nexus 5 under CM13 to send the cast. It was working well with my previous TV that was supporting mirroring (a smart sony).
I have tried to connect the NP to my Nexus 5 access point. The problem is the same.
I really don't know in witch way I need to search...
Any ideas ?
Thanks
I've found the solution here : http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-nexus-player/595252-nexus-player-casting-broken-6-0-a.html
Just need to uninstall updates of Google Cast Receiver and update it again !
Running Android 8.0.
Solution : Delete cache of "Chromecast built-in" app.

did you guys try to duplicate your fon screen to an external display? if yes, you need to go to the home app on fon n from there you can find to duplicate your screen to an external display which is connected to chrome cast accessory. or else, if you just want without chrome cast device, external display need to be connected to same wifi n either of them should have installed home app so that they can talk to each other.
for wifi printing install printer specific app to your mobile. Make sure that both printer n mobile are on same network (wifi) then it should work flawless.
I have tested all above methods (except smart tv one)
