[Q] Miracast on Microsoft Surface RT - Windows RT General

Has there been any news on this? I thought it would be implemented with the update to Win 8.1 but it's not working like it does on the Surface Pro?

Windows RT Store is th same as is present in Smartphones Windows 10 Mobile??

Hi guys,
I have a question about Windows RT...
The Store is the same as is present in smartphones with Windows 10 mobile?
Apps available are the same?
sorry for my bad english...
Thank you
Have a nice day!
RT = Windows 8(.1) based but on ARM, so comparable to Windows 8.1 Store if the app supports both (Phone and Desktop/Tablet).

Teamviewer screen control on nokia 8.1

Hello coding gurus/ android masters,
I bought a nokia 8.1 expecting to use teamviewer to remote control it from a pc. To my fate, teamviewer is not allowed on Nokia phones. There is no way Nokia will allow them because their staff is reckless as hell. And teamviewer says its Nokia's decision to allow any app.
I got to know if I get my phone rooted , I might get the screen controls apps working. Is that true? where can i find the custom ROM for Nokia 8.1?
Is there any other app that can run on Nokia 8.1 for screen control without going through the rooting hastle?
I would thank if anyone can help me with this.

[Question] Use the surface RT as a second screen for Windows 10

I have done a search and the last post was from 2013. Many google searches are old as well and supposedly are not working.
Is there a way to use my old surface RT as a second monitor for my Windows 10 pc/laptop?
To me the would be the most useful use of this old unsupported piece of tech.
I would also LOVE this, even if there was a way to remote into the RT.
There is splashtop on the windows store with its desktop counterpart. I've been trying to use my surface as a THIRD monitor to no avail, since everything I've found can't handle the fact that I already have two monitors.
There is also spacedesk, but the html5 viewer doesnt seem to work on the surface.

Philips Android TV as second/extended display?

If this has been asked elsewhere, I apologize.
I have a Philips Android TV (android 10), and I'd like to use it as an extended display for my windows 10 laptop.
From what I've read, it's supposed to be supported kinda automatically by windows since both devices are on the same network, but windows 10 can't find the TV as a display device. It was my understanding that since both devices use/support Miracast then it should just work but ... not for me
Unless I'm missing something Teamviewer, VNC, etc all just mirror the display - I want to be able to use the TV as a true second monitor.
Possible?
Thanks in advance!
HI,
no - Android TV does not support Miracast - only Chromecast
Just use the Google Chrome browser on your PC to cast your Desktop.

I appreciate the response. Before posting my question, I googled it and the first answer said it was supported - I should have read further - my bad.
I'm aware of (and use) Chrome remote desktop which works great, but I'm looking for an extended desktop solution, not simply mirroring.
Thanks for your time. GC

Hi Gneechee,
you can try Spacedesk.
For me it works like a charm. (Philips Android TV)
In Windows - your TV appears as a real second screen - with the advantage of a wireless screen.
Best

Hey there Hans, thanks for responding!
Not sure why, but the Spacedesk android app isn't available for Android TV, so I just grabbed the APK and sideloaded it ... and it's working just fine!
Sideloading is my new best friend. haha
(maybe that should be on a T-shirt <G>)
Anyway, thanks mucho lots!

Various Android TVs come with Miracast / Screen Mirror Apps / Feature inbuilt - Maybe ought to check if yours does?
