Best way to mirror screen from a note 2 to a series 5 samsung smart tv? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am trying to mirror the screen on the note 2 to a samsung series 5 smart tv. I want to play my psone emulator game on the big screen, I am already doing this with no problems on the phone with a bluetooth controller.
I've tried it a number of ways but none can do what I wanted, have anyone done this before got any advice?
1. Samsung allcast. Its is built into my series 5 smart tv but it seem to be only able to play music/ picture/ video content across allcast. Unless there is some settings or hack I've missed. I think its because its a old series 5 tv. the web seem to shows a lot of examples of it working on newer Samsung smart tv.
2. Mhl cable. I dont have one and so I cant try it out. I am worried the resolution may not be very good or maybe there will be some lag on say, tekken 2. Have anyone used it before got any advice.
3. Remote desktop programs. This will work fine with a pc but I cant install the required program on the smart tv to get it to work.
Thank you in advance for any help.

He dude
Search for a netgear solution.
Dont know the exact name for the device but google will help you out and you will know when you see it.
Oh yeah... allshare cast must! Work. So a modified phone will not work without an allshare cast mod ( if there is any)

Axelman
A thank you would be nice, if i helped you in any way.

For custom ROM you may need a mod since custom counter prevents allshare from working.I went back to stock+rooted+twrp recovery.For me Triangle away does the job.Allshare cast is working like a charm.However when I go to Recovery I have to reset counter afterwards - every time.

First. Thanks all for help.
I was initially trying for a inexpensive way to play ps1 games on the big screen, as the soon to be released ps vita tv prompted.
I knew you could get some sort of expensive wifi router than allows universal screen mirroring. Unfortunately they are at least £100 which sort of defeat the purpose in my case.
I am on rooted stock rom. Allcast seem to work for everything (ie photo and video) from the phone and the pc. But no screen mirroring. That is unless I am missing on some options/setting or apps.
Lastly anyone whom got a mhl cable on any advice on lags or sounds or recommendations. As a quick search on amazon will pop on hundred of mhl cable at various price £10 to £50+. It seems that upscaling the note 2 resolution to 40 inch tv might be a bit taxing for a cheap cable. I am not sure. Any tips.

The Netgear solution costs about $50,-
A MHL cable is okay, but still then ur wired and set to a distance of 2 meters max between you and your 40 inch.
Every convenience comes with a price
I got my MHL cable from china.. works great, but its not for playing games on a tv set.
If your interested in the cable,

you good to go.
Only problem I can see is that this is basically like the old rabbit ears that you used to see on every TV. With that In mind I'm certain that you will get mediocre reception and that would only be on the channels that come over the air.
It is a cool concept tho.

Samsung AllShare Cast Dongle (Video Review)

Hi all. Got my hands on a samsung allshare cast dongle. So i thought that a quick-review and setup would come in handy for some people. Since the sIII is the featured device I've made it with it. Altough it works without a problem with the Note II too since it also has the allshare cast app integrated into the soft.
Check out my vids:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpTmv9xQG-E Unboxing, Setup, Gallery
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=naAu8XcDHMw web n gaming
do you think it would work with older TVs, like from few years old, but also having HDMI slot?
yepp it has to work!
I wonder if the Sky Go app will work with it
I noticed it has a slight lag. How does it affect gaming? And anyone else that uses the MHL adapter does it have any lag?

I have an unofficial mhl adapter, and there is a touch of lag (see the other thread in here). Videos and regular stuff are fine (Youtube HD looks great), but most games seem to have varying amounts of lag. Interestingly, Dead Trigger was completely playable but stuff like Angry Birds and especially Ski Safari were harder.
sometimes it lags in games!not all the time !
maybe you should combine it with this threat as there are already many questions answered about the dongle and its working/non-working.
In addition it seems that dead trigger runs quite smooth on your dongle, for many it is choppy & laggy, mind to share your dongle's firmware and your phone's setup?
...
sorry 4 the late answer Dongle Version: LF21, SIII firmware: JB I9300XXDLJ4_I9300OXADLJ4_BTU

Yes i did get "a2w measy" but i wasn't happy with the quality of the picture and lags so i have send it back for a refund.
Picture looked like it was "bad quality movie" even thou it was 1080p. It is brilliant idea but need some more work on it.
I've used it on official MK9 4.3 rom to LG smart tv, picture quality was very good but it had around a 1 second lag which made it awful to use.
Actually after a LOT of reading and browsing.... I realized, that miracast is not working as it was the idea on the paper! It is just not ready for prime time...pretty similiar to Bluetooth in the beginings.
A lot of devices are not compatible with a lot of dongles. There is a lot of chinese cheap 20-30usd devices on the market, that according to sellers should support miracast, but that is more often then not not the case at all. And when someone succeeds to connect the dongle with the phone, it does not work very good at all for video casting...audio is often out of sync and video stutters and is choppy...and that is when it works at all.
So my advice to everybody is to get a TV stick/box with Android, for 50$....it will be much easy to setup for casting..and a lot more powerfull, espacially because it could do a lot of extra stuff...

Yes I was thinking of buying it too but for me it would be so much easier to use my phone to navigate to where I want with miracast. I have tried to connect my phone to tv and use my tablet to navigate with all sorts of "remotes" from play store and it just wasn't comfortable enough to buy an android dongle.I guess i just need to wait until they will perfect miracast technology I don't mind small lags but picture quality with the compression it use is not good enough on 55 inch tv

[Q] Nexus 7 2013 wireless tv out

HI guys. Can someone please recommend a decent method of being able to wirelessly display my nexus 7 FHD on my 42" LCD TV. It isnt a smart tv so I need a device to do this but I want to be able to play games on my tv using the Nexus as well. I have seen a few dongles for about £30 on amazon but they all have dodgy reviews. The cheaper the better but I obvs want something that will work flawlessly. Please can you guys give me some advice and your recommendations?
Many thanks

The SlimPort is a great device. I do not personally own it but I know people who own it and they say it works flawlessly. Since I cannot post links yet I suggest you go to Amazon and type SlimPort.
In android 4.4 in the display section of the settings there is an option to cast screen and since it says "cast" it leads people to believe the chromecast will be updated at some point to mirror screens, however it doesn't have that capability at this time but it will be a great option when/if it happens!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I was surprised when the Nexus 7 cast screen feature in the display settings worked with my Samsung All share Cast dongle, but it isn't that good by any means. But then, not even my Samsung S3 does screen casting to the dongle very efficiently either. So, slimport tethering is the way to go using a Bluetooth keyboard with touchpad to remotely control the Nexus.

The Netgear PTV3000 has been pretty flawless for Miracast so far. Just make sure you don't have any other devices operating on the 5 GHz band when you're using it. HTH.

Which "china" Miracasr dongle?

Since IOGEAR GWAVR is no where to find in EU and in Ebay cost to much. (shipp+tax). So Im gonna buy a cheap china miracast dongle instead. But which of so many miracast dongle does works with Note 2014?
Considering these cheaps one: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=miracast&_sop=15
But if any know where in EU does it sale IOGEAR GWAVR, that doesnt cost a fortune and I will buy it instead.

I am using Google Chrome cast. While i don't get the entire tablet on the screen I can watch any videos, pictures etc on my TV and it was 35 bucks at best buy. The video is pretty much all I cared about and it saved me some money doing it this way.
i search Taobao. Com ,there are a lot of options. The price is about 160 rmb (20-30 US dollars)
I'm using the action tech screen beam pro right now and its great. Watching one piece via S anime while writing this.

Too expensive, cost over 100US to buy it and that is too much.
I just want stream live streams to TV and screen mirroring. Buy from ebay, takes around 1-2 months (if lucky an be faster) and dont want to wait if buy a none working with Note 2014.

Nice thread! I would like to learn a little more of this!
Please can someone share the experience ?
EZCast/ EZMirror ? iPush ? Some say can do miracast and airplay!
Can we have a dongle :
- HDMI and AV connection ?
- Mirror what's on our Android screen
- Mirror what's on iPhone screen
- Mirror PC/MAC
Thanks
Hi all,
My colleagues and I use this :
www.tinydeal.com/fr/hi763-miracast-dlna-airplay-wifi-display-dongle-for-smartphone-p-111836.html
It is compatible with Miracast, DLNA and AirPlay. I can mirror my android devices and computers screen (Wifi Display) and stream airplay on the TV.
Also, there are some little issue with some of custom roms. But with my SM-P600 (MK1) it works flawlessly.

I read that some requires iPush to be downloaded from Play others EZCast/EZAir, is it the case for this dongle?
I've seen some youtube reviews and it seems that visualizing video the audio is a little lag from the image, is it common from this cheap dongles?
Anyone knows if there is any dongle with RCA analogue output instead of using an expensive HDMI-RCA converter ?

Sorry, I don't really understand "some requires iPush to be downloaded from Play others EZCast/EZAir, is it the case for this dongle?". But I'm using the Note 10.1 2014 with the native mirroring service included. And on my computer I'm using the native wireless display of windows 8 (I have an Intel proc with an Nvidia video card). Some of my colleagues use iTunes for streaming on the dongle.
I've forgot to mention one thing. The dongle does not allow to receive all airplay, miracast, dlna on the same time. There is a little switch on the dongle for choosing the dlna or airplay mode.
My recommendation is to avoid all cheap chinese miracast dongles. Got mine from Ebay and it works like crap.
- Wifi streaming hangs all the time.
- Resolution works fine from beginning and suddenly it changed to a weird aspect ratio size and all is zoomed in on TV.
That dongle is collecting dust now.
UAU
I've decided to give a try and i'm just impressed! It was the cheapest i've found on ebay:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/371043321886?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
Not only came well packed on an impressive case as it does exactly what it says!
Tried our Note 2014 (605), iphone 5S and a toshiba laptop.
I advise you to just look at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrzaLjA1EiiBiYR4VKCoZpA
It works just like on the videos.
@ jpl69
Does it work for movies and gaming? How the range?
For gaming, just forget. At least half second gap, to much for gaming.
I have everything in my room, router tv/dongle pc, android, iphone so the range is about 3m.
For movies, youtube is awsome.

Do you need to use the EZcast app or you simply use the built-in screen mirroring function of the Note 2014?
You must use the EZCast , but just to trigger the mirror function on the device.
