I tried installing AllShare on my stock N10. It was a no-go. Will report back after I try it with the Paranoid ROM.
I was also interested in this. Either in this, or another product that would allow me to display my screen on the TV wirelessly.
Just ordered my Note 8 (3G version).
I've had the iPad mini previously and I've been wondering for a while, what is the ideal tablet/phone combo. I'm presuming that I'm not going to use the Note 8 as a phone very often, so I'm going to be carrying around 2 devices most of the time.
I've currently got a Galaxy S3 which I'm very happy with, but I do wonder if the 2 devices will be too similar. I've considered getting a small, cheap phone to use just for calls and texts and using the tablet for everything else, but I don't have the tablet with me all the time, so I do need something that has a decent browser and a camera.
I'd be keen to hear your thoughts. I'm sure this topic must have been discussed before, but I did a quick search and couldn't find anything.
I was just thinking of posting a very similar question.
I'm currently using a blackberry curve 9360. Its an OK companion as I can use it as a mobile hotspot and allow my note 8.0 to access the web through it. I love it as a communications device. Good for calls, strong signal, good battery life, small and the keyboard is great for sms and other messenger services. where it falls down is apps though. There are a few available but nothing seems to work very well.
Im weighing up the convenience of the keyboard to the benefits of useful apps at the moment. If I were to get an android phone, id need to be able to use it as a hotspot, which i think i can do, and it would need to be small enough to fit in my pocket, so about 4 inch screen maximum. There doesnt seem to be any high end devices at that screen size though, Just lite versions of their larger siblings.
My contract isnt due for renewal until december so I have a while to search and contemplate though.

I imported a pantech Vega 6. Mainly for the 1080p screen and 13mp camera. So far its an awesome phone. They've updated it regularly although I didn't think I would be able to living in the US.
Oh and I like the near 6" screen size too

Best phone/tablet combo? Padfone.
I'm using the S4 currently. Not sure there is really any device with a huge advantage when paired with the Note 8. Personally I think just sticking with Android and Samsung between the devices is best. At least this way you can use more of the Samsung share features and of course all your purchased apps on both devices.

so you use a 6 inch phone and an 8 inch tablet? What do you use one for vs the other?
I am using a Nexus 4 alongside my Note 8 Wi-Fi.
I am happy with the combo and find that almost everywhere I use my Note 8 I have good Wi-Fi.

SG4 and Note 2
SG2 and Note 8 with 3G for data
OG Note. Holding out for the Note 3.
Galaxy S3, T-Mobile model. I prefer my tablet for most uses so there's little reason to upgrade just yet.

I use this combo also, note 2 with my note 8. To answer your question, for me it's not so much a matter of designating each device to its own app per say, but more a matter of convenience. Basically, I reach for the 8 whenever I can, even for texting (mighty text), but when it's just quicker/easier, I go with the 2.

Galaxy S4. Great combination and similar styling

i've got the sprint galaxy note 2 and a verizon s4. i kept sprint when i picked up verizon (just before killing unlimited data) b/c i'm on a $50/mo sero plan. i should have gotten the note 2 for verizon also. s4 is nice, but i like the bigger screen on the note 2. maybe i'll get the note3 on verizon as long as they're root & unlock it and then sell my s4. i really should just drop sprint as their service in my area is total crap.
I use a S3 and a S4. I like the phones for all the things they do so well. The Note 8 was a impulse purchase due to AT&T having a bundling promotion when I purchased the S4. It replaces a Tab 2 7" and it far superior in display and I find the S Pen to be a real joy for use with spread sheets, drawing programs and the like.

Sprint Galaxy S4 and WiFi Note 8, although looking to get rid of the tablet because I just haven't found a use for it. I do have games and movie/tv apps on the Note because of screen size.
Previously I had the Note II and Note 8 but gave the Note II to my son (he has way bigger hands) and got the S4 for myself, which I'm really happy with.
Still in planning stage, but it will note 8 and one x

Hi I have given my grandfather my old galaxy note 10.1 and he wants to be able to share media from the tablet screen to the TV will chromecast work for this?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app
same question........Has anyone actually sent their 10.1 (2012) screen to their TV via Chromecast?
The literature indicates this should work. If so, how well does it work?
Any info appreciated.
Hi... Ihavethe s5 and the N8010.
Works for phone but not the tablet, the option isn't there in the chromecast app.
Just get an allshare dongle. Its the same premise, however the allshare can mirror everything on screen. Not just youtube and netflix. They should be about 50 on amazon
I use an allshare at home and we use them in every classroom at my school (every student and staff member has a galaxy note 10.1). At home I use my allshare with a S4, note 3, note 4, galaxy note 10.1 2012 edition, galaxy note 10.1 2014 edition, galaxy tab 2 7.0 and nexus 7 they all work out of the box. Just like z31k said it mirrors the whole device not just certain apps. I went to best buy and had them price match amazon to get the price down to $50 that way I didn't have to wait for shipping

Samsung's Allshare Cast dongle is easiest option but it is possible to get Chromecast doing that too. Screencast/-mirroring option is available in Chromecast by default only for small set of devices but it actually works in many other devices too including Note 10.1 (2012). You can find app from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/har...experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193 that enables screencast in all devices. It works fine in Note 10.1 but requires rooting. How well mirroring itself works depends on how fast your wifi router is. If you use mirroring to stream local media from tablet to TV it works quite ok but streaming HD video from internet to tablet and simultaneously mirroring it from tablet to Chromecast does not work so well for me.
I can connect my dell tablet, lg g3 and my samsung s4.
My nexus does not see the fireTv.
Anybody else test this out?
cheers.
Nexus devices don't see shoddy Amazon products like amazon doe snot see chromecasts in its store anymore XD
Seems odd tho my 6P casts to my Chromecast and to my Chromebook just fine ( usisng mirror app ), I wonder if its to do with the on going Amazon / Google thing
Not working with my Samsung TV and 6p either - works on my n5. Called google they transferred me to huawei. They at first said casting (TV out) is not supported and then said they'd look into it and call me back.
I thought miracast was not supported on this gen nexus devices?
Chromecast yes though.
I got the Gear 1 when I got my Note 3 and I just upgraded to the Nexus 6P. I have tried connecting my Gear to the Nexus 6P and it pairs via bluetooth but I cannot get Gear Manager to see the watch. So, does anyone know if it works with it or only Samsung smartphones? May be time for a smart watch upgrade also
Love know this as well, please keep me posted. I'm considering going to the 6p from the note4 , how are you liking it?
Same is happening for the Gear S, basically my watch is just a watch for now. With it bluetooth-connected, all my calls to my phone go directly to the watch.

I really like the Nexus 6P...one big big difference coming from the Note 3 is I get great signal on the Nexus 6P. I can actually use my phone in places my Note 3 would never work. That alone was worth the upgrade to me.
As far as I know the only samsung watches compatible with non Samsung devices are the gear live and the gear s2. You can connect the gear s via Bluetooth but it will act like a Bluetooth headset.
