Hello all,
I have a bit of a problem that I'm hoping someone a little more tech savvy than I can help me with.
I have an 8000 Series Samsung Smart Tv and a GS4 1337m on Roger's running Maple Leaf (GoldenEye's Canadian Variant)
Whenever I try to enable the screen mirroring I get a "Failed to connect" message.
To be thorough the steps I go through are as follows.
On TV:
Settings, Network, Allshare Cast Settings, Screen Mirroring. Which puts the TV into the state ready to accept the connection.
On Phone:
Drop down menu, Screen mirroring. It finds my TV and the two of them seem to start talking to each other, as the TV lista my phone by name as an incoming connection. Then the phone just seems to abort part way through and says "Failed".
Any thoughts?
To be clear, streaming for every other app works fine, even tossing pics from the gallery. It's only when I try to mirror the phone screen itself.
Any help would be awesome. Thanks in advance guys.

Hello,
Just got my Nexus 4 in earlier today and been playing with it all day (got it Like New condition on Ebay). I've updated to the latest version of Android 4.2.2 Kitkat OTA and everything is running smooth as butter except...
I have an LG 55" Smart TV with Wireless Display and was hoping to "Miracast" my phone to the TV. So I go into the TV options and have it search for the device... then go into my phone, and into "Cast Screen" under settings, and indeed they see eachother. So the TV "asks" the phone if its OK to connect, and then on my phone I get the option to confirm its OK, which of course I do... then the TV shows that its trying to connect for a while and nothing happens on my phone. Then...my phone loses all connection to the internet. I mean all the bars are there, wifi is on etc... but whenever I try to open a webpage in Chrome, Youtube, netflix etc its like I'm not connected to the internet. The only way to fix it is to either reboot, or go into airplane mode then back.
I would really love some help getting Miracast to work! Thank you!!!
It doesn't work on any 4.4.x roms I know of (not sure if it works on stock) I got it to work by dual booting a 4.2.2 rom and using that and I works like a charm on my lg smart tv

Hello,
I often find myself in my car pretending my phone is a laptop while my laptop sits right next to me in a brief case. I thought well wouldnt it be nice if I could use my laptop to do work in my car rather than my cellphone.
In my city I have 4G all the time with this sprint service, which would be great if I could just get my laptop connected to it. My phone is rooted and I have a screen shot of the "about device" section under the more tab in settings. It also runs a .odex file system which a google search on another site said was important.
Could someone tell me how I could connect my computer to my SG4S to utilize the 4G internet. All my google searches have lead me to this forum for expert advice.
Many Thanks.
Bump
Have a look at this thread. Download the app and follow direction. This app works on our GS4 though it's in the Note 3 section. http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/themes-apps/app-one-click-hotspot-enabler-menus-t2816159
I do see you're on the MF9 firmware. You may need to be on the current NG2 4.4.2 for this to work.
Hey guys, i have a big question.
So i have s7 edge, and i recently bought also a TV set also Samsung, 50KU6000 (its actually KU6092, but the last digits is specific to Eastern Europe, its same thing with 6000 in UK).
I was extremely surprised to see if i access quick connect (at the bottom of notification area) and click my tv (same wireless network, Bluetooth on, on the phone) and got a "TV to mobile".... And it actually sent the image from TV to my phone. I can actually go to the bathroom and continue watching what's on tele on my phone. This feature is awesome, i wished for it for many years now.
So my issue is... Ia This a feature of the phone or the TV's. I searches very hard on the Internet and i can't find any mention of this. Did anyone else tried this with their phones on smart TVs?
Ps: this is not screen mirroring, and its not phone to tv (through chromecast, or miracast, or smart view). It's actual program from tv on the phone. Not an iptv app nothing... Just whatever i see on tv on a channel its gets send to my phone, if i change to another channel it also changes on the phone

Sounds cool, I actually just returned that tv as the base wasn't great on it but never knew that feature.

I discovered it by accident, I'm trying to read something in depth about quick connect, but nothing significant

By "tv to mobile" do you mean you had to install an app for this to work because i miss this function since i first had it on the Galaxy S3 and loved it. If so, please let me know what the app is called and I'll see if it works on my Samsung smart tv.
Just log into your Samsung account on your Samsung TV and then open quick connect on phones drop down menu n select TV to mobile which is only for samsung tv n phone. Hope it helps

@krico no app. No dongle @Jgonzmp4011 are you implying this was a function available for years? One just had to login into Samsung account on TV. If you are, than... Damn... Wtf didn't Samsung advertised this
Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
Yes I am
Samsung Smart View app used to do this until they removed that feature.
Hi, Is there a solution?
Same issue.I want this feature, but i can't find quick connect toggle on my s7 edge.
Is there any alternative way to access this feature on my phone or my tv?
Please someone upload the quick connect apk
Wanted to find out if any of you know how this is possible or has happened to you: Bride & I both have Verizon S5's, same rev, 900V, mine is rooted via your excellent instructions here, hers is not. This weekend, she was @ her parents' house & her phone's content suddenly started playing on a nearby Vizio smart HDTV! Pretty sure she's on Marshmallow (6.0). This was accompanied by a message on her phone that appeared to be from Google, stating her phone had a virus. Research indicates this may be nothing @ all but a pop-up. Her phone's wifi was on & connected to the parent's Cisco/Linksys router. No messages or weirdness since then.
Makes me wonder if there was something enabled on the smart TV to automatically pair or stream. I know Google Cast can also run on these phones & do similar things. Who knows...sadly I wasn't there to examine the blast zone.
Today, my rooted S5 suddenly had the Peel Remote control panel show up in the swipe down notification area, after I throttled on wifi on the phone. The custom ROM I'm using was supposedly debloated & deodexed, but I've noticed I still have all the Verizon factory apps, NFL, Amazon, & Audible apps...just hidden or turned off. I'm on Lollipop (5.0). Peel wasn't listed in the hidden or disabled apps, I just happened to find it running in Application Manager. What the heck? Granted, I haven't caught back up w/ you guys to disabled the bootloader so Verizon can't push updates to my phone; we have the newer "11" CID that's a much tougher nut to crack.
I happened up this thread & it appears to allow us to finally crack the bootloader for CID 11:

Do ask that you please share w/ me one piece of guidance: which ROM would you recommend for busy Mom & Dad w/ a busy tribe who don't do social media, don't do sports, don't do buying on their phones. Just using our S5's for texting, phone, occasional YouTube, occasional web, Google Maps, mobile hotspot. Greatly appreciate yooz guys!
Peace.
Hello. I'm new to the group. Like so many others I was looking for a cost effective smartwatch that was not as expensive as Samsung or Apple. The Lemfo Lem5 Pro got very good reviews so I ordered. I use iPhone 7+. According to the company and the seller (Gearbest) this watch works with iPhone.
It arrived today and I find it not very functional at all. Not like in the few review videos I've seen. It won't show me the IOS option in the phone's bluetooth section under available devices although it shows up on my phone and says connected. WiFi also shows connected but I can't seem to do anything online. I can't even get the weather to show up. When I click on the plus side to add more watch faces it simply shows a spinning wheel and does not want to show me the supposed 50+ watch faces available for download. It shows me 4 faces.
I Have tried doing a hard reset of the phone and it still seems to not want to function.
Does anyone have any experience with the Lemfo Chinese smartwatches that can offer some help on why this device might not want to connect to anything? My wifi is very strong and shows connected. The watch shows that it is connected to the iPhone but the LEM5 IOS option does not appear anywhere in my settings so I am at a loss to understand why it isn't doing what it should. The instructions are sadly very minimal and a less than great translation from chinese.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you might offer. The watch looks great just doesn't seem to want to do anything.
Just got the LEM5 Pro.
After watching a few videos, i've realised that this more of a Smart Phone in the shape of a watch. So the functionality even with an android phone is very limited.
It can connect to an android phone after u download software, but even then... you cant make calls unless you insert a sim into the "watch".
Filed under "money wasted".
Dear sir,which app I have to download for connecting my Lemfo Lem5pro.I am unable to do any thing with this Watch.Kindly advise me which app I have to download to activate with my phone.
Kindly advise me.
Thanking you.
Where did you got the LEM5 Pro? I am going to order one from coolicool, it is less than 120 bucks now.
same problem
i had the same issue at the beginning i thought it was due to the lemfo server being busy or webpage being hallt for few weeks.
it worked after few days. i have problem in connecting to different android app for watch. i cant even connect to lemfo band app. it only works on lemfo watch app which is pretty useless. if you find any solution to connect bluetooth directly to phone then please share with me. i want control my watch with my phone such as tracking health and other uses of the app. thanks
What about Android phones it has the same issue
Connection
The only way my Galaxy 8 plus will connect to my watch is if I use Bluetooth Tethering. Search for Bluetooth Tethering in the settings of your phone, turn it on, and select the watch from that screen, it'll connect.
The problem I'm having is it won't send texts.
I have a lemfo lem5 pro wich have the same issues,the software seems to have a bad optimization ,to make weather work i insterted a sim ,gps without sim for me is not working , the wireless is working but i don't see a browser ,the 50 faces are showing up but it's takes a lot to load them and sometimes stops loading after a few.
I know the Lem X is a GSM device compatible with AT&T and T-Mobile, but I saw that if on the CDMA platform / Verizon, you should still be able to get call
ALERTS and text ALERTS. I know you can't answer calls on the watch, nor can you respond to texts, but I can get call alerts, but I just cannot get text alerts. Any idea how to make it alert me to texts?
