Hi all, I am having this problem with my new LG G6 from Telus. I tried to connect it to my Microsoft Wireless Display V2, but the screen turns white, then the widi then just goes back to the how to connect screen, while my LG G6 still says it's trying to connect. The weird thing is that it can connect to the LG TV itself fine via miracast, and also the Chromecast. To make matters even more confusing, my LG V20, Samsung Note 3 AND my Surface Pro 3 can connect to the WiDi fine too. Any idea what might be the issue here? I thought it might be a app conflict, but no way to confirm. Any help is greatly appreciated, since I did not know that the LG G6 does not support Slimport, would have gone with LG v30 instead then
no miracast problem here LG G6 H870 +LG UHD webos 3.5

Hi, I am having problems with mirroring my smartphone screen to TV when using slimport after upgrading to Lollipop. It is like my tv can not detect anymore my device. I used to see under "SETTINGS/GENERAL" there are connection options like Charging, Images/Videos uploading, LG PC SUITE, etc. Now it is gone. My G2 version is F320L. Anyone experienced this too?
slimport no longer works on lg g2 ls980 scince lolipop update
Yes it does not work on my lg g2 ls980 ever since lolipop installed
I upgraded to Lollipop and slim port mirroring still works fine for me. There is nothing to select. When I plug the hdmi cable to my TV and select that source my screen is mirrored. I don't have to touch anything on my phone for it to work.
That being said you should just invest in a Chrome cast. It does the same thing wirelessly and there is more you can do with it besides just mirroring. I prefer the Chromecast over slimport any day.

Hello. Yesterday i read about cast, screen mirroring, wireless display, Windows 10's Connect app etc. I tried to connect my x720 (5.9.020s stock) and Connect, but they don't see other. After few mins, i got 'Your device is not supporting Miracast' or sth like this. And week ago i tried to connect my phone to Sony Bravia, but troubles too. May my device fails, or there isn't possibility to do it. If anyone knows how to, please make a tutorial.
I have a 727 and also can't really connect.the phone shows hdcp not supported.any insight or work arounds?
I can't get my LG V20 to connect to any of my Miracast enabled devices. I have a LG WebOS TV and a LG PH150G Projector and can't get either one to connect. On the Projector, the phone will find it just fine, but when it connects the projector will get stick at Signal Detection. On the LG WebOS TV it will just get stuck on connecting. Any solutions?
SOLVED for me at least! It is a conflict with the App 'AllCast' by clockworkMod. Once I uninstalled the app Miracast works!
I had the same problem trying to get the V20 to connect to a Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter. Suggestions would be appreciated!
That's odd. I have a 4k tv with chromecast integrated and also have an ezcast 4k dongle and both of them allow me to use DLNA and also screen mirroring. Currently using Weta Rom.

I think I can solve this one for u. Go into wifi settings and forget your home network(s). Restart phone. Now try to connect to dongle by selecting screen sharing from settings. Let me know. It always works for me

Tried your suggestions, but they didn't work. I am using the Tmobile variant of this device with the Dec. patch update.

I had trouble with miracast too a few months back. Gave up and just used smart share to watch my movies on my phone. I could look into it again and see if I can figure it out.
Edit.. Just hooked up fine first try. Mines not a webos but it is an lg 3d smart tv.

What version of the phone do you have (Carrier)? I have tried to connect to 4 different TV's and Miracast devices without success.
I just tried using Miracast in 'Safe Mode' and it almost works, The status bar changes to blue, and my projector now gets to starting stream, but eventually disconnects.

T-Mobile. I'm on a custom rom but don't thik that is the issue. Have you factory reset your phone yet? I know no one likes doing that, but might solve your issue. It's definitely the phone though and not your other devices. I know the first time I connect it makes me enter in a code from the tv, but after that it remembers the connection. Try going into your tv menu and see if you can connect from the tv to phone side as opposed to phone to tv.. Should have a menu option for it on all your lg devices that are miracast equipped.
Ok never mind saw you fixed it.
Hey all,
So the wife & I got 2 new G6's recently. We had G3 before & could use slimport (wired) to play video & stream through our phones & display on the tv. We have no wifi, phones are our only internet connection at the house. Our big screen is a few yrs old and came out just before "smart" tv's rolled out.
We used to plug in a slimport adapted to the phone & tv HDMI port, but apparently slimport is no longer compatible with the G6... Any tips/ideas/work arounds?
Get a wireless display adaptor. It uses mirrorcast.

I have the exact same problem as deekman. The only internet access I have is through my LG G6. I do not have WiFi or any wireless capability. Am I able to connect my LG G6 to my TV? kabirjedi said that a beelink gt 1 Android TV box works. I'm a bit of a techno-illiterate. So could anyone explain, in detail, how it works? I am able to use my LG as a wifi hot spot but only get 15g of 4g data per month before Verizon slows my "unlimited" service to 600kb which is worthless.
Hope you can help.
Hi everyone,
I recently bought the 2016 version of the samsung gear 360 camera. It works great, but when it comes to connect it to my lg g6, there's no way to do it!
Basically, I've downloaded the modded apk of gear manager capable to run on any android device, but when I try to connect my camera to the lg g6 a warning saying "no connection" appears on the screen.
What do you think could be the problem? It connects flawlessly with all my other android phones.
Thanks in advance for your help.
