[Q] Allcast switches to background ... - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
as mentioned every attempt of casting any file ends up with Allcast switching to background mode - you see the picture on TV but you have to run Allcast again to go with the next on. Everything is working fine on my Z1 but got problems with Samsung... Any ideas?

NP acts strange (google services/sixaxis crashes)

Hi, I've noticed some issues watching videos on youtube. Some of them are ok, some of them after 10-20-40 minutes (really random) starts to lag, not responding to NP remote and after 30seconds youtube app crash and I can submit report.
I tried to clear cache, data etc but still same on random videos (I think it is HD videos)
When youtube crash and I want to submit report, sometimes also google services crashed all
Any idea what that can be and how to fix it? My network is ok, watching movies with KODI from my NAS or netflix is without problem
Update:
Ok it looks my NP has more issues than this. Yesterday my youtube stopped working, I tried to clear cache etc and nothing helped, it still showed no connection (play store the same) but when I removed and added my google account, everything started (but there was no network issue, netflix worked fine)
Same issue today again...and from nothing my sixaxis wont connect...ps3 controller just blinking but cannot pair even it worked day ago and nothing new was installed...I tried to pair it again but not working...so I just stop sixaxis and google settings service crash
It looks to me like system is just tearing appart and I dont want to go through system reset
Any idea how to fix this appreciated
ok I did factory reset, install basic apps like netflix, chrome, es file explorer and stickmount/foldermount then I tried sixaxis...installed ok, but when I try to pair via cable, gamepad is just blinking and cannot be found
I am lost, anybody similar issues with sixaxis these days?
sixaxis trick
ok so got sixaxis working finally...maybe this will help in the future to somebody else
I had to pair my ps3 controller with another android (hard reset using pinhole in back of the controller didnt help either) with sixaxis maping tool, then I set again in that tool bluetooth address of my NP and finally it gets connected
How do you get supersu to give sixaxis super user rights? If I have it set to prompt I have no way to click it as it disables bluetooth. I have it set to auto grant right now but don't want to keep it that way.
I've used my wireless keyboard which has its own controller so disabling bluetooth will not affect it

[Q] Sometime image goes blank then return back

I'm using a NP 5.1.1 connected with a not recent Sony TV: KDL-40P550.
Time to time the screen goes black and return back in a few seconds.
During black screen the audio stream continues without any interruption.
The TV doesn't show any messages that could make me think about a connection loss: no messages on the display and, as told before, the audio stream continues.
The same TV with the same cable in the same hdmi port got correct signal from Chromecast, a PC with nVidia card, a MacMini 2010.
Any suggestion?
Anyone with same experience?

Cast Screen not working with Cyanogenmod 12.1

Hi,
I have run the latest few versions of the nightly build for 30/7 and 31/7, up to the latest, 10/8. I have carried out a full wipe of the system, and almost everything works much better than with the Lollipop stock ROM.
This issue I have is with the Cast Screen. It will connect to Miracast (An LG TV, Samsung TV and a Roku 3) and also to an EZCast dongle. However, All that is displayed is a black screen. Bothe systems say that the phone is connected, it is just that the screen is not mirrored.
I can display video via Bubble UPNP to the EZCast and TVs, but that is all.
Here's hoping that others have seen this and can help.
Regards, Richard
I am facing the same situation mine would connect for a second and then just disconnect- very happy with CM12.1 otherwise but cannot find a solution for it anywhere. If you do pls share
Use all cast https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.cast works perfectly for me on RR rom
I don't think that Allcast is an answer. Bubble UPNP already works, but that also will not allow for screen casting, which is what I wanted to do.

Screen mirroring - Black screen, only sound.

Hi,
My NP runs under the original ROM, (6.0.1).
It works well when I cast Youtube or a video thru the cast option.
The screen mirroring only cast audio, the screen remains black.
I use a nexus 5 under CM13 to send the cast. It was working well with my previous TV that was supporting mirroring (a smart sony).
I have tried to connect the NP to my Nexus 5 access point. The problem is the same.
I really don't know in witch way I need to search...
Any ideas ?
Thanks
I've found the solution here : http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-nexus-player/595252-nexus-player-casting-broken-6-0-a.html
Just need to uninstall updates of Google Cast Receiver and update it again !
Running Android 8.0.
Solution : Delete cache of "Chromecast built-in" app.

YouTube Casting to Samsung TV

Hi All,
I used to own a Pixel XL and still have the same Samsung tv. I used to be able to watch you Youtube on my phone and it didn't matter whether I was watching Youtube or Netflix or NowTv on my TV, I would be able to cast the video to my TV without any issues. This is without a chromecast and simply using whatever is built internally in the TV.
Now with my Oneplus 8 pro, I have to be on the Youtube app on the TV in order for the casting to work. So If I am watching Netflix and I want to cast my youtube video I can't simply cast it from the Youtube app on my phone, I must switch to the Youtube app on the TV first.
I have checked my TV and my phone is listed as an allowed device, I also tried using wifi direct on my phone and the TV is listed there, so it seems both are connected however there is an issue with casting from youtube on my phone.
Does this make sense? Does anyone else have this issue?
I have a Samsung smart TV from about 5yrs ago, and it works for me.
Have you tried to force restart the TV?(hold power until the Samsung logo shows up, the standby led will blink like mad)
Other than that try reinstalling the YouTube app on the tv,
Also try using the YouTube URL to link to your account ( I think it's YouTube.com/linktv).
