[Help] Smart Pause stopped working after Screen Mirroring - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys. I tested the Galaxy S4 on my Allshare Cast Dongle for Screen Mirroring.
After using it my Smart Pause feature does not work anymore. I tried everything.
Rebooted the phone, disabled and enabled Smart Pause again, and nothing worked.
I don't know what else to do. All other Smart Features are working just fine.
Can anybody help me?

[Q] Smart stay doesn't work S4 GT-I9505

Smart stay doesn't work on my norwegian unlocked GT-I9505 when the phone isn't in my hand. If i have the phone on the desk and smart stay is activated, the screen never turns off automatically. Anyone else have this problem?

Well it depends on the light condition that may be the reason
Also try off / on Smart stay
I have tried to turn it off/on but that didn't help. It seems that the problem isn't light related since it doesn't matter if it's in a dark or a light room. It never works. Only when i have it in my hand.
I'm using JB 4.2.2 Brazil csc I9505ZTOBMG3 and root with official status and now my Smart Stay, Scroll, Pause and Rotation aren't working.
Isn't Camera Issue
Isn't Light issue
Isn't toggle button off..
Tried everything to make it work but it can't recognize my face.. and I'm not squinting! :laugh:

I don't want to back it to Original Defaults without root

Smart Screen Issues

Coming from a Galaxy S3 and Note 2, I am aware of smart screen limitations. However, for the life of me I can't seem to get it to work on this phone. I see the little icon pop up in me notification bar, but it never actually keeps my screen awake. I make sure that my face is well lit and that I don't have any light sources behind me. What am I missing? The same goes for the smart video playback.

Smart screen for video playback has never worked for me. Does anyone with the T-Mo variant have this working? Smart screen works, but videos don't pause for me.
It doesn't seem to work well for me. Maybe it is just poorly implemented. About 1/4 of the time it would fail on me. Hope an update will solve this issue. I'm on stock rooted.

[Q] HDMI

I am curious i have a hp extreme slate 7, I plugged in the hdmi cable to watch movies on my tv and it works flawlessly however i am wondering if there is a way to shut off the tablet screen playing video while watching a movie on the tv? I thought it would be a good idea if it could do that but upon thinking about it more I dont think that it will because you have to shut down the touch screen. Please let me know if there is anything already on this subject or ideas. I have a usb keyboard and gamepads to actually navigate the websites and stuff if the screen is off just havent found anything on it yet. Thank You
There's an app called second screen which has an option to turn the backlight off, the touchscreen still works but it's a lot less distracting.

i9505 - issues with smart dock after lollipop upgrade

Hi all. I've looked for an answer to this issue, but to no avail.
I usually dock my s4 to samsung' s smart dock at home and I use it connected to a tv with mouse and keyboard attached for basic needs. Till lollipop upgrade everything worked flawlessy, now there are some issues:
Original TW: upon connection (power, hdmi etc), the screen goes off and appears on the tv, oriented and scaled to fill the display. this is fairly good, since I don't need anymore a rotation control app, the problem is that if the screen goes off, the only way to interact with the phone is via keyboard and mouse, which is annoying. does anyone know a way to control this behaviour?
GPE: the screen stays on upon connection, but sound is not sent through hdmi, only through the smart dock 3.5mm connectior
thanks, any hint appreciated

[Q] Daydream Issues

My nexus player will go into daydream mode but will not sleep, my only thought is that my wireless keyboard and mouse which is connected over an OTG cable, is keeping it awake. I have a few questions ...
Is there a way to put the device to sleep and lock it with a pin (the only way around this I found was using restricted profiles)
If the keyboard and mouse is the culprit do I disconnect the OTG cable or switch the keyboard and mouse wireless switch to off ?
It's worth mentioning that my nexus player was playing a video this morning that I don't remember clicking. I performed a factory reset in case my nexus player caught something. Sorry this is my first experience with android lollipop and the nexus player. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: I'm not sure if it's a known issue but I forgot to mention (totally unrelated to the daydream issue) but sometimes an error would pop up and say "Google Cast Receiver Has Unexpectedly Stopped" is this normal ? I've heard it's in Beta so there might be some complications :/

So I found that through further use my nexus player did in fact sleep (my keyboard and mouse wasn't at fault) turns out when switching video inputs the device wakes itself automatically. Still though, I have issues with Google Cast Receiver has stopped, anyone else experiencing this problem ? Is there a fix :/
