Screen mirroring how?
I'm rooted and safestrapped and running on beans ROM and mirror works fine thru MHL adapter... typing this out on my flatscreen with bluetooth mouse and keyboard as we speak... just got done playing GTA with sixaxis PS3 controller and all that mirrored well also. (Eats battery like crazy though)
I am talking about thru my samsung all share cast hub you press screen mirroring and it does not connect there is a fix for the note tablet 2014 and other samsung devices but i do not think there is one for this one.
Here is a example of what I am talking about
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2421642
I've been looking if there was a way to get the mirroring to function with any rendering device... I have multiple htpcs in my house all with xbmc, I can send video music whatever to it being xbmc broadcasts the pc on the network as a dmr device, but the stock mirroring on the phone doesn't recognize it
Did you find a solution yet? I've been trying to do it with the Fire TV stick. It finds it, says it's connecting but won't connect.
I have seen videos on you tube showing s3 and s4 connected wireless threw the ps3 media server but when i try to use it in the same way ps3 wont find s5 and s5 wont find ps3. Both ps3 and s5 can find my pc though . Wifi is on and tried quick connect and ginkgo dlna app but still no joys. Ive got network settings selected on ps3 but no luck. Any help?

Holy ****. I didn't realize it doesnt have an ir port. Well **** that really sucks to be honest. Looks like I will have to buy a universal remote then for my TV.

Yeah. This is one big loss for me too. Use my Note 4 as universal remote. Now with S7E, there is no IR!
Stupis samsung!

This is an option. But its too big and ugly to have on s7E.

Correct, you cannot use Peel because the Galaxy S7 does not have an IR blaster (hardware).
However, if you have a Samsung Smart TV then you can use the "Remote for Samsung TV" app by FreeAppsTV to control it. FreeAppsTV made similar apps for other TV manufacturers as well.

It works well but there are a lot of ads. I am willing to pay $ for the ad free version but I can't find it.
It connects via Wi-Fi and enables you to power on and off the TV, change the source input, enter the TV menu, navigate the Hub (i.e. open Netflix, HBO Now, etc.), and control the TV volume. Unfortunately, because the Samsung TV is not able to control the volume on external speakers, the volume on external speakers cannot be adjusted.
In addition, if you have Comcast, Verizon, etc. then there are apps to control the cable box.
The Xfinity X1 Remote does not enable volume control either.

Thanks for this. It's working perfectly with my Samsung TV.
The main requirement for the phone to be use a remote is the IR Blaster which is not available with S7 and S7 Edge. It is not an issue but its just that you cannot really use the phone as a remote.
Thanks. Hope I answered your question
what device do you want to control?
Unfortunately the Samsung Galaxy S7 does not has IR blaster . You can use it as remote control by Wi Fi or with external IR blaster.
Hope someone could help me with this. I have been using an iPhone for the last 5 years and in such I have a Pioneer Appradio 4. I am trying to see if I could make the android jump and purchase a S7 edge.
My Appradio supports mirrorlink as well as Appradio live which is garbage.
What I have been reading is there is no Mhl / hdmi support on an s7. However mirrorlink is available on the phone. Is anyone able to confirm that the S7 will connect via mirrorlink on my Appradio? I have been looking everywhere for an answer but most of the stuff is for the older galaxy phones. Sorry if I'm a bit ignorant to searching android stuff I've been chained to iOS and CarPlay for too long.
*Side question-- with Miracast do you lose all connectivity to cell data?
Thanks for all the help in advance
If your Pioneer Carplay head unit supports also Android Auto you can use this method for connecting.
Miracast doesn't interfere with the phone running data connections (wifi or mobile).
Unfortunately it doesn't support android auto. Which is pretty lame.
I dont't know about your head unit, but generally Mirrorlink should work also with the Samsung S7 Edge.
Thanks for the info now my only question is will it work with ARunchained reloaded once this is set I'll be ordering my Galaxy and getting off this iOS nonsense

For that app to work it's required to root the Galaxy S7Edge.
Anyway, if you're not used with Galaxy rooting, Knox and related possible Samsung warranty limitations, you can find these information on the forum. Moreover, to be able to root you need to buy the Exynos version, not the Qualcomm 820.

Okay good I found it on the website it has the exynos processor. Once it's rooted and I change everything I should be able to run this app then? I messaged Area51 hopefully he will message back regarding it. Thanks again for all the info and help.

Yes it works
I can confirm you that Galaxy S7 works with mirrorlink and the AppRadio 4. The sound and video quality are simply perfect. I have been using MHL before with Sony Xperia and ARU, mirrorlink is better. The only issues are the restrictions that mirrorlink implements in the navigation, no recent apps none slide notifications, etc. Hope some friend could mod "Samsung Mirriorlink.app" to break freee these limitations but also in the current situation i recomend you to use mirrorlink with Galaxuy S7 because as I said, the stability and quality are just perfect.
appradio 4 mirror link
did u have to disable android auto?

so it will only work with rooting your s7 edge? if so how do I root my s7 edge? I to want to use mirrorlink with the sph-da120
I Just installed the SPH-120 and I can only get my Galaxy s7 to connect to blue tooth. Tried the developer mode with USB debugging, Switched to MTP configurations, and both USB ports along with multiple APPS. and I cannot get it to connect.
When I connect to the second USB port, Both the phone and radio attempt to connect but the phone screen shuts off and the radio says incompatible USB (original cable).
Hi how do you connect wich cables you use to get it working like you say?

I just created an account here so I can add a reply in case anyone struggles to get MirrorLink to work. I got an SPH-DA120 to work with my Samsung S7 Edge. I went through the same process of connecting the phone, seeing the connected message on the phone screen, and then the SPH-DA120 screen says "Incompatible USB." I thought it was an error but it was simply my failure to understand MirrorLink. You have to first get a certified MirrorLink app on your phone and then choose the home button (or whatever it is...looks like a Windows 7 start menu) and your certified MirrorLink apps will show up there. When you choose the USB/Ipod2 source the HU will always say "Incompatible USB." In my case I used RockScout, which then gives you access to everything on the phone by selecting a "Choose Source" option--that mirrors your phone's screen and provides a gateway to everything on your phone.
Maybe this process is common knowledge about MirrorLink but I spent way too much time googling this and trying random things to get the phone to connect. Something else worth noting is you need a high quality USB cable. The HU seems fine with USB extensions (even cheap ones) but it requires a high quality cable to connect to the phone. Some work, some don't. Not even all Samsung cables work.
One more thing...I actually contacted Pioneer's customer support to get assistance with this. To my surprise they replied to my initial email within an hour. That's impressive for customer support at a large company like that. Admittedly I figured out that the USB cable was the problem shortly after I sent the email but the quick response from them was nice.
Can somebody confirm if a non rooted Galaxy S7 can MirrorLink using rockscout while in motion using the 7000nex soft touch bypass? Trying to mirror every app and function while in motion using the nex. This includes YouTube, Google maps, chrome etc
Great information here. I just started driving a Jeep with appradio 4 in it . I have a galaxy s8 plus. Any advice what to do?
Still stuck with my note 8. Stock android Mirrorlink works but very limited. I tried with rockscout, button savior, LG mirrordrive app etc to screen mirror my phone but n way. The only fault is with Messenger pop-up showing nicely on my car screen. So I tried rooting my phone with magisk and hide my root but the Mirrorlink app is not working anymore. When connected to my phone it says authentification not valid... and the database is no more the same when I want to add some apps in pkgnames...
Hi,
I have problem with mirrorlink pioneer sph-da110 with galaxy s7 edge when I connet via usb I see mirrorlink in appradio. I click in mirrorlink then I see Lg Mirrordrive an I choose this after that I have dark screen and nothing else happens. Somebody can help my where is problem?
When I try and cast apps using Chromecast, my V20 will either say it cant connect or connects but doesnt cast anything. This has never been an issue using my other android devices. Anyone else having this issue? Ideas of what might be going on?
Hi there, I just tried it and it worked fine for me.
It works fine with all three of my devices. Try rebooting the Chromecast and rebooting the phone.

Off topic, but no. Chromecast is still Chromecast. The app for it (which itself was never called Chromecast, but rather Google Cast) was redesigned and renamed Google Home with the introduction of Google's Google Home device. The app is now there to serve any "Google" device they release.
On my Sony Android TV the app is called Google Cast that's built in and I can cast from my phone or tablet like you normally would with a Chromecast dongle. It seems Sony broke the ability to cast with a recent update to the TV, which is unfortunate because Sony updates are few and far between. I'll just invest in the new Chromecast and bypass the built in app all together. It isn't the phone after all.
I have the same problem. I rebooted the Chromecast receiver and my LG V20 and it doesnt cast, even to a Chromecast 2.0 device. I tried with my old Galaxy Note 4 and it works fine.
I wonder if this has something to do with Android 7.0 Nougat?
I have h990ds and chromecast 2.0 and everything works well ?

I just got my LG V20 and was having the same issue with Chromecast. One day it would work and then the next not. I found it only works if I have my wifi on my LG set to the 2.4mgz. It will not cast if logged on to the 5mgz. I assume most of us now have dual modems. When in my office my phone goes on the 5mgz. So have to change it to 2.4 to cast. has been working every time so far.
Works like a charm for me, both in ChromeCast and Nexus Player.
I have 3 Chromecast, and 3 Chromecast audio, some on 2.4GHZ, some on 5GHZ and they all work fine using my v20 no matter if it's connected to 2.4GHZ or 5GHZ.

Not an issue with Android 7+. Works perfectly for me and many others. If you're still having trouble try some of the troubleshooting steps mentioned above, like rebooting your v20 and rebooting your ChromeCast. You could first try turning your WiFi on & off, as cycling your data connection often helps with connectivity issues (Either WiFi or carrier, depending on the situation. Though obviously it's Wifi in this scenario)
