Oneplus One Screen cast issue solved (Conditionally, for sure and in a little simpler way)!!
Wait..May be there wasn't any issue at all!
I read thru many forums people complaining about unable to cast OPO screen or expressing their annoyance that Chromecast is not supporting OPO for screencast yet..
Here is one of the popular and working solutions by an xDA member, Thanks @r3pwn :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/hardware-hacking/chromecast/experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193
But hey..! There may be an easy way! CynogenMod OPO doesn't need any Chromecast support! Not even Chromecast itself!
There may be a other solution posted somewhere, but I did not find any. So I'll just go ahead and post this guide. I'm pretty sure it's gonna help somebody!
Here is what I did to cast my OPO to my Samsung Smart TV. Easy peasy!
1. Make sure your OPO and TV are on same Wi-Fi network. (This step may not be necessary, but I haven't tested yet without this step.)
2. Many of you are aware that there is an option for OPO in the Settings > Display and Light > Cast Screen > "On"
3. Even after that you most probably won't see you TV listed there. Now here's the catch on next step. Follow Either Step 4a or 4b, whichever works for you. (Either should work, but just in case..)
4a. In OPO, go to Setting > Wi-Fi > Options Menu > Wi-Fi Direct. You should see your TV listed there. Select that, and allow for any Connection Prompt on OPO or TV.
4b. In TV (samsung Samrt TV in my case), go to Menu > Network > Wi-FI Direct. Your OPO should be listed here. Select that, and allow for any Connection Prompt on OPO or TV.
5. Now in TV, go to Menu > Network> Allshare Settings> Screen Mirroring. The TV will be ready to receive the stream from OPO.
6. After this, go to the Settings > Display and Light > Cast Screen on OPO. We've already turned it on, so now you shold be able to see your TV there. Just click on it and that's it!
You should now be able to see your OPO screen on your TV (Samsung Smart TV for sure). Response is pretty fast; it may not be suitable for high accurate timing games, but other than that, this works like a charm..! Oh, and the TV screen is fully filled when rotating your OPO in landscape mode. I was able stream 1080p video file without any jittering or quality loss! Complete audio and video! Do post back on your experiences..
I believe, the pairing for Wi-Fi Direct was the key step here. I assume everyone who failed to cast their screen did not paired for Wi-Fi Direct.
This guide should work for other phones and/or TVs, as long as DLNA, Wi-Fi Direct, and Screen Mirroring is supported on both devices. Steps and menus will vary a bit, but that's all!
If any of you get other devices working , please feedback...
Enjoy casting..! :good:

I wonder why you see other Android devices and not OPO.. It should at least be visible to the TV. May be there is some other issue before regarding connection at first?
Are other android devices able to connect to TV? nd via Wi-Fi Direct? Can they cast the screen?

Will explore this later.
My TV is on R45, tried also wifi on router no change.
No further idea what to try next. Maybe some app.

Working on Sony W6 series TV
Doesn't work with LG LM6410. Other Android devices show up on the TV but my OPO doesn't and vice versa. The TV, too, doesn't show up in the WiFi Direct screen of OPO.
My Galaxy S3 and Note 10.1 show up and pair just fine with the TV. Weird...

Yeah... weird, indeed! Even if screen mirroring is not supported, at least the connection should be made between TV and OPO.
You had Cast Screen setting "On" and were you on same Wi-Fi as TV?

After you've successfully connected, first go to Screen Mirroring in TV. Then you TV will be ready to receive the stream and will show up under Cast Screen setting. Make sure that setting is turned on.

Is there a way to cast oneplus one screen onto a computer?
Related
Is there a way or an app that will allow you to project your tablet screen to a tv? For work we need a TV that will allow us to project the tablet screen on it. We have yet to buy a TV yet and we currently have Galaxy S tablet as an option or the Moto Xoom as another option. Any suggestions? I've Googled for a solution and I've also looked through the market and haven't found anything. Being able to project wireless would be MUCH preferred.
Thanks!
You have the software on the tab already its called All share but you have to use a Samsung TV and that also has to have All Share on it.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
I think he means an app that can do the same thing as the HDMI dock. The HDMI dock allows everything to be projected to the TV, not just media. In other words a mirroring app such as ones that exist for the Droid X and EVO but wireless. I would be interested in this find as well. Right now I use the HDMI dock which works quiet well but a wireless solution would be gold.
I use a $24 cable I bought from ebay. Then I project my screen through my video projector, but to a tv would be just as simple.

As has been said already, this only allows you to share media (eg video) rather than apps/homescreen etc.
However, Allshare is a DLNA client/server that works with any other DLNA device, not just Samsung TVs.

This cable is a nice and cheap alternative. However keep in mind that it won't charge your tab while it is in use while the HDMI dock does.
can we log in to internet via hdmi dock to TV?

Yup you sure can. If you have a bluetooth keyboard and mouse you can do anything from your couch if you wanted to. I recommend the Logitech dinovo mini or dinovo edge if you want this option.
I know this thread is kind of old but I want to ask...I want to do the samething wirelessly on my note 10.1 2014....now I don't have a smart TV but with chromecast is it possible? Also would chromecast have to be rooted? I don't want to be able to use some apps...I want to be able to see my TV the same exact way that I do while it is on the tablet

Only way possible is via the tv station website if they stream over the internet.
Or as the other gent said slingbox.
I dont recomend remoting into an htpc with a tv tuner because the resources required will not allow for decent quality video.
It would probably be jumpy missing dozens of frames per couple of sconds and have rolling lines from screen refreshes.
But if you are at home doing this its possible remote desktop might be ok.
But via cellular or public wifi...? No

It 'may' be possible but will require additional hardware.
I have an HDHomeRun from SiliconDust and essetinally, what it does is stream my OTA antenna to my network computers.
Was reading about an Android App and ran across posts on a forum @ SiliconDust that someone there metioned an app called SinCast from Sinderon:
When I get time, I'll try it out and report back (may be a day or two before I get time).
I second the slingbox option. Easy and just works

Try Vulkano Flow. A less expensive alternative to slingbox. The quality of the picture on the tablet is awesome.

Hey there guys,
Just a quick one in case anyone doesn't know, but when setting up a remote on the TV app, on cable box, if you scroll down to Microsoft and use that option, it allows you to use your TV remote to control your Xbox!

That's cool. Is it better than Smartglass?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Smart glass connects through WiFi and has deep integration in the Xbox. This simply allows you to power on/off your Xbox, navigate around and select stuff in Netflix etc. Perfect for me as I have an Xbox and tv in the bedroom which is mainly used for dvds and Netflix.
smartglass is different and has many more features, but having one remote to turn your tv and Xbox on is amazing.
Works a treat thanks don't even need to leave the šofa to turn on the Xbox now lolz

Tried in on my two Sonys and Tivos. Works great. Simple setup...I just followed the prompts after running the app. You might get more useful assistance if you specify what kind of problem you are having.
I use it on the really old TV's at school and it works perfectly. It amazes everyone and freaks the teachers out.
when you open up the application it asks you to either press the power on and you keep pressing until it finds the work code , or you have the tv on and you press chan up untill it changes the channel , like most common universal remotes , it does not read ir to ir remote codes ... , so select the app , goto the remote it may ask you do you have a subscription to a cable satellite service if you do select the operator , and then your ZIP code, then setup your universal remote via the power button just keep pressing untill your TV works if you have some obscure TV it could take a while ..
dvd player?
I got it to work with my comcast box and vizio tv, but I can not find the option to add another device.
How do I add a blueray player?
I had hoped this would be a universal type remote..
No option to add a Roku makes it worthless for me..
Disabled it for now maybe they add more features later on..
