Screen mirror issue s4 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys
So I have an s4 and an s5. Both 4.4.2 and both rooted. I connect to a Samsung TV with screen mirror and they generally connect ok. I then launch a VPN client to get to Netflix US and as soon as i do this this it will disconnect the screen mirror. Tried a few VPN clients. I think i read before about this but cant find the link. This does not happen using a rooted s3 though so im guessing its not the fw on the TV. Any help would be much appreciated as i cant sell my s3 until i get the screen mirror working properly on the s4 or s5

help! my SG P6800 wifi malfunctions

hello xdadev,
i really need your help. I am a newbie in android world [just purchased my first android device] last month [samsung galaxy tab p6800]. since then, i was really excited to explore android world and its features where I was led to this site.
now, heres my problem: just this afternoon, at first, i used my wifi to access a shopping mall internet connection. but minutes after turning my wifi off, when i turned it on again to connect to another network, i was surprised that it wont start and when i open the settings menu, under it says error. im really worried.
had my unit restored to factory settings but still no changes. Rooted my galaxy tab but today, i unrooted it thinking that the rooting caused the trouble.
im also hoping to update my tab to ICS but with this problem, im really stuck! i dont know how to access my apps in the appstore.
is this a firmware error or a hardware problem? please help me. my tab helps me a lot.
thanks in advance. im willing to add some details if you could help me.:crying:

[Q] SideSync

I have Verizon Galaxy Note 3 and Ativ Book 9 Plus.
One feature I was looking forward to was SideSync.
Ativ Book 9 Plus came with SideSync preinstalled.
But then there is stupid verizon with removing Samsung Apps.
Well, long story short, I do have Samsungs apps now and I do have Sidesync and Phone Screen sharing apps installed.
I connected the devices via USB cable that came with the Galaxy Note 3.
I ran Sidesync on Ativ Book 9 Plus and did recognize that Galaxy Note 3 was connected via Sidesync.
When I tried either keyboard&mouse sharing or Phone Screen Sharing, it fails
I tried to contact samsung through live chat that their dumbdumbs don't know what they are talking about.
"Sabrina" was her name and said "oh, try to download SideSync through Play Store"
Anyhow, did anybody have success using SideSync with Verizon Galaxy Note 3?
I am having same issue with my Galaxy Note 3. I am pairing with Ativ smart pc pro and have no luck. SideSync showing connected but when trying to connect on keyboard&Mouse sharing, sidesync app on Note 3 disconnects. Any one faced this issue?
You guys need to try airdroid...

Can you explain how you were able to get the SideSync and Phone Screen sharing apps on your Note3? I also have the Book9+ and was looking forward to using the application.

Weird, will edit this post with the apk in a few.
I forgot my Note 3 isn't rooted. These are from my Note 2, but they're the exact same version.

I've had the same trouble, got an ATIV book 9 lite, galaxy note 3. I downloaded the apps from Samsung. I can use the mouse and keyboard sharing ok, the phone screen sharing will work only when I am on wifi that is on the same router, like at home.
I can't use phone screen sharing on wifi at work where there are multiple nodes even with the same wifi name. must be a MAC address thing.
the phone screen sharing app won't connect via USB, it's connects for a second then fails
both apps work great on my Galaxy note 8, on wifi and USB. it's obviously a Verizon thing..hope there's a fix for the usb thing soon with the phone screen sharing app

Hot spot and Group Play Not working after root?

Hi there,
I have rooted my device (LTE N9005 32GB qualcomm) and i just cant seem to get the hot spot or group play working on it. My GF has the same note 3, but not rooted (stock) hers works fine with both. I have since unrooted the device and they are now working.
Question is, Has anyone had trouble with this? Are there any work arounds to get these working?
Group play cannot connect to other devices or no devices can connect to mine.
Hot spot turns on the off straight away.

I have 2 rooted Note 3's, one has warranty void 0x1 (both LTE 32gb Qualcom), and a rooted S4, All these use group play with no problem. I just tried. Haven't tried hot spot as I use WIFI at home and the tablets I use have sim cards too...
Yes, I have a problem with Phones and being connected...

Where can I get Phone Screen Sharing app?

Hello.
I'm using the Note 3 model name SM-N900. The Russia Rom N900XXUEBOA6 is running on my phone. It is stock rom from Sammobile.
The problem is that my phone does not have any phone screen sharing app. Some said it is basically installed in the rom, but mine does not have it.
So some other people said me to install at the Galaxy app store (which is same as Samsung apps), BUT THERE WAS NO PHONE SCREEN SHARING APP.
For this reason I guess, I cannot run Sidesync with my laptop. My laptop is the brand new ATIV BOOK 9. There must not be any problem on it.
Could you guys give me any suggestions to resolve this problem? By the way, I live in NY, USA.
Thank you.
@ysuk9127 you don't need any app for this. You have this option of screen mirroring in notification toggles just turn it on and it will show you compitable devices on the same wifi network if you have connected.

need help, vpn issue on KK and Lollipop

hello, straight to the point, i have an issue with vpn on kk and lollipop. im using droidvpn with zero balance. it worked on JB. it says connected and i can surf using premium server. but when i update to KK or lollipop. even it says connected, the vpn does not tunnel or route the connection. anyone here experience the same issue? i read that it was cause by IPV6 which im not really sure. but on JB, it worked and does not have any problem at all. at the mean time i have to downgrade to JB again and again. i tought it was fixed on latest lollipop.
I already tested on my other phones such as N3 N2 Z2 Z1 S5,it has no problem at all like I did with my BS S4. On my S4 it connected to the vpn but no traffic at all. I think the culprit was the firmware on BS S4. I wanna throw this BS S4.
Try this:
https://droidvpn.com/page/routing-problem-on-android-44-and-art-issue-53/
You could probably better ask it at droidvpn.
I already send them email but they had no customer service at all or even reply. But in my case I'm sure its not their apps problem. It the S4 problem. I tried on my other phone it does not have issue like my S4 did. All vpn routing goes very well even on kk or lollipop but on my S4. It only worked on JB.
well vpn not working on lollipop
