hi.
i'm using my nexus 4 (CM 10.1 nightly from last week) and an SlimPort to HDMI adapter (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009UZBLSG) on my Samsung TV.
when i connect the phone, it switches to landscape but the screen is black. it is connected ("no signal" disappears on TV) but i have no picture.
if i open up YouTube and play a video, i see the video on BOTH (TV and phone) but i have NO CONTROLS on my TV.
any video i found showing SlimPort shows a direct mirroring of the mobiel screen on the TV.
when using miracast (samsung dongle) i have a perfect mirror with all the controls (and on youtube only the video) - thats fine.
how can i get simple screen mirroring with SlimPort?
is there any setting to disable "multi-monitor" and use "mirroring"?
tanks in advance.
It's the same for me.
I am using my Nexus4 with [ROM][JB 4.2.2][PA3.15][AOKP-MR1][CM10.1]P.A.C True All in 1 ROM[09/04][V22.0.2]
Slimport plugged in to Nexus+TV: Picture only on TV. Nexus 4 Screen is on but black.
After pluggin out the slimport: Picture back on Nexus 4.
This issue was fixed in M3 for CM ("experimental" build from the 11th), and the fix is in the most recent nightly as well.
I just bought a Samsung 32F6400 tv, wich has screen mirroring that is designed to work just with samsung phones/tablets.
I turned on wireless display on my phone, it connects to the tv, and after that i get a 2-3 sec black screen on the tv, and then it says Screen mirroring off/disabled...
Did anyone get this to work on a samsung tv ?
problem with Samsung
I also have a Samsung TV 2013 edition and when I try connecting via miracast it says connected then the TV stops and exits miracast mode, however the nexus 4 did work with my freind's lg smart TV and my brother's note 2 worked on my TV so I'm guessing that the problem is with Samsung not the nexus. And I was using stocl android 4.3 ....:crying:
I'm hoping there's a port to make it work with Nexus phones.. Anyone?

I have a Sony Bravia, a Panasonic Viera and Samsung pn43d490(doesn't work) and screen mirror and slimport works great with sony and panasonic, but the phone screen still on all the time, I want to turn the phone screen off while using netflix, please need help
I know not all smart TVs have this option. Do I need to get a Samsung Smart TV? Right now I have a 55" 1080p samsung smart Tv but if I mirrorlink it the sides don't show because something from the QHD to 1080p conversion doesn't work right.
I have an old non smart TV (1920x1200) with an Amazon Firestick and Mirrorlink sees the firestick and I can mirrorlink through the firestick but it also doesn't show everything from my Tmobile Note 4 running Rapture ROM to the TV.
I'm looking for a TV or computer screen that will do a perfect mirrorlink from my note 4. I'd prefer a 4k that is known working with the note 4 as my next laptop will be 4k and I will use the tv/monitor as a 2nd monitor also.
Thanks
Does the rom have the build.prop edit to make mirrorlink work? Its to disable hdcp im pretty sure you can add it yourself
HI,
I've a samsung s9+ with original Dex station (not dex pad).
In resolution chooser i've only automatic, FHD and HD+ selectable. WQHD (2560x1440) is in gray and non selectable. I've tried both my monitor 2k and tv 4k. Max is 1080p.
It's normal?
In one s8 tread someone with the oreo update can switch 2k with this station.

It may be power saving mode. Confirm it is not enabled.

isn't enabled. in max power mode and WQHD+ enabled, same thing.
it's possible the DEX STATION (1st model) only support 1080p? Anyone use it with 1440p?

Original Dex supports only full hd, DESPITE Samsung claim for 4k. As far as I know neighter dex stations support 4k

Same problem with me. I have the original Dex station and I plug it into my 4K TV and 1440p is grayed out. Really disappointed as that was one of the features I was mostly looking forward to

There has been only one 1440p desktop screenshot on Google's image search with a Samsung Galaxy S9+ and Samsung DEX pad. It's also in German. I don't think the Galaxy S9 series with the DEX pad can do 4K or 2160p.
S9+ Dex pad all cables from samsung option greyed out on Sony 4k tv , WTF! SAMSUNG , XDA help lol !!!!!!

Ok so I changed inputs on my sony XBR-43x800e from 3 to 2 and it enable the WQHD, which is strange since both are 4k ports per sony , Iswapped them back and forth again and now neither will go 4k for the Dex pad but both are for the xbox x . So just bad programming on samsungs part it would seem .

Is it still working for you to get wqhd on the dex? I bought the note 9 to use it with dex, but the option for wqhd is not available?? it is grayed out.
Sadly, I'm led to believe that the WQHD mode is limited to certain TV sets and limited supported refresh rates at WQHD resolution.
Most youtube video reviews of the dexpad show it greyed out. The only time I saw it work was on a youtube vid where it was connected to a samsung branded 4k TV. (And then the author of the video plugged it into a streaming capture device where the resolution went back down to 1080p)
I've got a Dell P2715Q 4K screen and in Dex mode its never done 4k, nor WQHD.
Except, if you get out of dex mode, and put it into screen mirroring mode - 4k does work. I can verify by opening the Menu on the Dell - the resolution and refresh rate is written in the corner is 4k 60hz. But in Dex mode I only get 1080p
Same problem here
I got a galaxy S9+ with latest update (oreo), 4k samsung tv (2018) and the 4k option is gray out. WTF Samsung
I had the issue with third party adapters, the wqhd is greyed out, but i got the dexpad and the wqhd showed up. I used same monitor and cables.

I get mixed results, I feel it may be related to the tv and the phone and the reboot power up sequence and timing , until Linux on Galaxy is released I have no use for it , wifi direct with mirror cast/google cast/ whatever works ok for wireless display and then connect usb or bluetooth devices to phone . Netflix didnt work well over either so there goes one of my main things was 4k netflix without hotspot tethering .
Talking with Samsung support, they informed that it is not supported and possibly will work on S10 (but not sure (yes, the support said that))
As far as I understand, the output is limited to certain displays, mostly Samsung TVs. I'm using the Tewejia dongle which works, sort of. I've got WQHD working on a Vizio display but I'm not sure if that TV is just supported, or the dongle might have something to do with it.
I've got mixed results...
My 1080p LG TV didn't workout with the Dex Station.
My 1080p 9 years old AOC monitor did.
Any other monitor below 1080p didn't worked out too...
So I sold my Dex.
S9 + Samsung USB-C monitor directly attached to phone = FHD ??? How to overwrite max resolution settings?
Hello,
I hope first of all that I have caught the right thread here for my question and I've translated it properly.
I have, as the title says, a problem with my DeX-Pad and S9+. On 2 TV sets in the house nothing appears, if I have connected the Smartphone via DeX to the TV. The TV remains black, but the message "HDMI connected" (or something similar) appears briefly on the mobile phone display. The curious thing is that the whole thing works when I'm at the TV in the bedroom, but not at the TV in the living room and the study (where the whole thing is supposed to be used). But if I connect the LG V30 to all TVs via the pad, it works too! The first time I tried the S9+ recently, it worked in the living room, but not anymore.
I've already tried other power supplies for the pad and other HDMI cables. Also other HDMI inputs on the TV. Whereby it can't be due to the cables and HDMI ports, because it works on one device and on the other with the V30.
I also reset the TV and set the phone to factory settings. All without success. After several attempts I still haven't made any progress and wanted to ask here if someone can help me with the problem? Maybe someone has a solution or advice ready!
Is there any chance to get hdmi ouput vertically? I use my phone portrait mode and I want ky monitor show all full screen without huge borders. I mean I want outpt mirroring resolution like 1080 x 1920 ... Not landscape mode!
Got an Samsung tab today.. s5e and tried on my 55" LG OLED and no dice above HD+ and FHD as 1440p is greyed out.
I was on a 4k60 typeC cable and a Samsung Tablet device from 3Q 2019.
can be numerous of reasons... lack of potent hardware in the tablet, lack of native Samsung Dex cradle or cable, lack of high-res-support for an LG 4K OLED TV 2017.
whatever is the reason and if it is doable on Samsungs part, then Samsung needs to get it sorted otherwise Dex interface will be a dead dino, before it even got some legs to walk on.
The last thing Samsung should think about is limiting this DEX interface if they wanna give it a healthy chance..
thx for the thread, seems it is the norm and the majority have problems reaching above 1080p.
Hi. I bought a Galaxy Note10+ and tried multiple cables and adapters (except Dex Station or Pad) and it never allows me a resolution higher than 1080p when connected to my LG 4K monitor. Sucks.
However, I found the below in their official FAQ:
DeX accessories
Are there any differences between connecting my mobile device to a DeX Station or DeX Pad and connecting it to an HDMI adaptor?
FAQ
An HDMI adaptor doesn't have a fan that can cool your device down. Therefore the maximum number of windows you can open on your the screen of your TV/monitor is limited to five, and also the maximum resolution is limited to FHD only.
※ Note that if you're using an HDMI adapter with a tablet running on Android Pie or a later version, the highest supported resolution is UWQHD.
