WatchON and Smart Tv - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Has anyone been able to get the Samsung Smart TV to display content on the S4? I have a S4 and a new Smart TV. The WatchON app works well to control the TV and I can send content to from the phone to the TV but can't sent the TV to the phone as advertised. The S4 connects to the TV but when I select the option to push the TV to phone it looks like it try to connect goes into landscape mode and then a quick error message and then back to the main menu?

[Q] Stock Streaming Player Lg g2 Verizon

Dose any body know how to enable beam to tv on stock Lg g2 streaming player like its on stock video player
Let me be more clear if I'm watching video from internal memory something i took with the camera or i downloaded to the phone and I'm using stock video player i can press the little smart share button on the top and it will let me select if i wont to play or beam to the TV.If im watching video from a website or facebook and I select the stock steaming player the icons are missing . Is there any mod for that or something I can edit with root explore to get that to work .
I want to know this too...
Just click on the miracast option on your phone and enable you miracast on your TV. It should do a quick handshake and viola...Thats how I do it, but u gotta have a miracast TV thou or you can get a miracast box if your TV doesnt have it.
The only think is that the miracast takes forever to content and the screen got to stay on the phone once goes dim the tv goes dim not a big fan of the miracast. The play to tv is much better

[Q] Stream Music in NAS to Samsung TV via DLNA?

Back when I was still using Galaxy S2 on Gingerbread I was able to browse music files on my NAS over DLNA using a Samsung provided app (I think is AllShare) and play on my Samsung TV but I cannot find that app anymore.
Seems like Samsung replaced it with Link but I fail to understand if that use case is still even supported by the Link app in Note 3.
Or would I now need to use a third party app for this, say Bubble UPnP?

Airplay fully working and Mirroring too.. AndroidApple Tv allinOne

airplay is working on the fire tv including mirror mode using AirPlay/DLNA Receiver (PRO)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.waxrain.airplaydmr
I PAID FOR IT and then sideloaded it using root uninstaller on my phone to make a backup
launched app and made no changes to the default settings
it works perfect
note
the bbc iplayer works on my ipad too but you must enable mirror mode before playing a video the video then shows fullscreen
some times you may get audio and a black screen found if I hit home on the fire remote and then select airplay/mirror device again on ipad it plays perfect again
this black screen bug only happens in mirror mode a minor problem(just hit home and start again)
android and apple tv rolled in to one for an extra $4.90
So this is for mirroring your iPhone on the screen through the fire TV or can this mirror an android phone through the fire TV also?

this is for iPhone/ipad ios airplay to the fire tv
not android screen mirroring
but there are some airplay type apps for music like doubletwist on android that could use this setup to play music/photos etc
but the mirroring is only for ios devices
I like this app. The developer is very responsive if there are any problems. He has fixed 2 seperate issues for me, and usually responds quickly. I had installed this app when I first got my FTV. After a few days I started getting error messages because the app wasnt installed through the Google Play store. I emailed the developer and he fixed that for me within a day.
AirBuddy for Airplay - music
Airbuddy from amazon' android appstore works great for music. Upgraded via inapp purchase - I primarily use it for music only.
How are these apps different than AllCast? I know one can cast an iDevice to your FTV but AllCast can do movies, photos & music right?

Well being able to use your iOS devices and mirror it on your TV can be very handy. (in example show Safari on the TV).
I downloaded (and paid!) the pro version from the app store, extracted the .apk and sidelined the app on the Fire TV. It works, that's really cool!!

Dear,
Our app has been available on Fire TV app store now. In fact, you can directly purchase it there.

I can attest that it works great and installs painlessly from the Amazon FireTV app store. WaxRain has provided great support on the application.
I can attest that this app is awesome. Works flawlessly 99% of time. BTW, jailbreak your ios device and install movie box. Airplay on fire tv is great. MovieBox blows away XBMC in quality and stability.
Do you know if they make a similar app for android phones. I've tried a bunch and none mirror the screen they just send certain things like music and video

based on your experience - thought I would give it a try ...
installed the (lite) version (AirPlay/DLNA Receiver (LITE)) and get this error on the Fire TV screen when I turn on the "Mirroring" option on either my iPad or iPhone
Built-in Firmware Player in your device does not support this format, Error Code: 1-00000002

I'm trying to get the XFiinity apps to work - via AirPlay - I've tried using the builtin service on XBMC but for XFinity it doesn't work either.

Hi,
I use thise http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...plugin-20&creativeASIN=B00L5HQRGS]AirReciever
*notice 180 coins back.
It does pretty much every thing you can mirror your ipad screen and the lag is low enough so you can easely play games such as the walking dead episode 1 & 2.and other action adventure games. (the audio latency is set well below 200ms with no problems using the iPad3) besides Airplay it also supports DMR/DNLB, and if you have a MAC you can use it as a extra screen natively. this can also be done on PC using the bit limited AirParrot. And it's developed for aFTV.
mirroring lag
Does any one know if mirroring is going to be improved? There seems to be a lot of lag for games my kids play. I tried both AirPlay/DLNA Receiver (PRO) and AirReceiver but both lag with sonic transformed, bubble guppies and more

If you go to the app's website, you can download the "AirPinPCSender" app and install it on your Windows box. I have it on my laptop and it works flawlessly to mirror my laptop to FTV
I just purchased both a
Lenovo Pro Yoga 2
and
Macbook Air 13
Trying to decide which I like better.. while the touch screen is cool and being able to use it as a tablet is fun on the Lenovo - I've had enough wireless connectivity issues that it's been frustrating (not sure if it's windows 8.1 or the card in the computer) - but my old HP stays connected flawlessly so I know it's not the wireless.
I rec'd the Air today - so I'll play with that and make my decision. I already bought and apple TV which works well enough, but the AirParrot app can only mirror the image of the PC and leaves a bar around the entire thing - there's some pretty evident lag as well just browsing.
I originally was going to go w/ the Fire TV and just found out about this app you guys are talking about.
So, essentially I can do a Fire TV (and download the app for airplay?) and download the app to make the apple stream to Fire? I can do both Mirror and 2nd screeN?
Thanks!!
Thank you
Thank you for the idea
Anyone know of a way to mirror an android phone on the fire tv without root? I know AllCast beta can, but iirc you need root and I'm trying to to root my work phone.
Hi folks. For those of you who have this app installed could you please let me know how it good it is at Airplaying video clips captured by the IPHONE / IPAD itself? So I'm not referring to online video (such as iplayer / youtube) being sent to the device, instead I'm asking about video's actually taken on the iphone?
I shelled out for AirReceiver app and although it's good for Airplaying photos and web video content, its crap for video clips cpatured from iphone (LOTS of buffering and really slow).
Also a question for WaxRain, if I pourchase the app, how many devices can I install it on? I myself have 3 FireTVs in my house.
Thanks.

[Q] Screen mirroring

I have one tablet galaxy tab 4 7" and I am trying to mirror the screen with a belkin miracast, but without success. There aren't any screen mirroring option in the settings menu. How can I minor the screen?

The specs for both the Tab 3 7 and Tab 4 7 on the Samsung site show NO screen mirroring, only 8.0 and 10.1

Clock Work Mod App Mirror issue (sm-T530nu)
I have my sm-T530nu rooted from this link androidxda.com/root-samsung-galaxy-tab-4-10-1-sm-t530nu
And now I downloaded mirror from the playstore.
Once I try to broadcast mirror to my apple tv, the picture appears to be only showing have on my tv screen.
is there a fix for this, or do I just have to wait until the next update on the mirror app.
My main goal is to use XBMC on my sm-t530nu, and watch the UFC fights on my apple tv.
I've tried Avia media player with the playercorefactory.xml, but it only broadcast feeds that were already formatted as movie files, it doesn't broadcast live TV feeds. If anyone out there knows a work around give me a text message back. Thanks in advance.

Can anyone fix this app to work on Shield TV?

I love this app.
But it will only work on my S7, and the app crashes on Shield TV Oreo.
I've tried pretty much everything (that i am capable of doing) to fix to no avail. Including screen orientation apps, and other things.
But the app simply opens and crashes immediately on fire tv or shield tv 8.0 . - The app Works great on mobile device, just not android tv.
Could one of you smart guys here fix this apk so that it works in Landscape Mode for Shield TV?
the app is here.

Probably not...Can you side load it maybe?
