Chromecast Notification not working - OnePlus 5T Questions & Answers

Hi everyone,
I'm having a very weird and annoying bug with my OnePlus 5T on OOS 4.7.5
Normally, when I start casting content to my Chromecast Audio, I get q notification on top that shows me what's going on. The same goes for all Devices on my Network. Now, with the 5T this doesn't work. My wife get's the Chromecast and Google Home Notification, but my 5T refuses to show anything. Casting works just fine, and If I open the Home app I can see the current Playback.
I've checked the relevant settings and can't see anything that might be amiss. Other apps notify correctly as far as I can tell.
Any clue what might be wrong?
Thanks!

I flashed OmniRom 8.1 and now the Cast Notification is there. The Rom is a lot slower than OOS and Camera is not fully supported, but apart from that it works just fine and doesn't have the Cast bug... weird...

chromecast crashing system ui

Tab s 10.5lte.
Whenever i cast to chromecast and then attempt to pull down the notifications panel it almost always crashes the systemui. Now and then it will work. It seems to be related to this bug: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=70783
Has anyone had this problem and found a workaround?
Never mind found a fix here, works perfectly :good: : http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/themes-apps/mod-chromecast-systemui-crash-fix-t2813095

Haven't really changed anything, running Cloudy 2.5, I can see the chromecast and reboot it via the app, but it doesn't show up when casting. Installed 20U and casting works so it must be something eith my rom or apps.
Anyone resolved this before or got any ideas?

Google play music fast forward/rewind in a track

Hi there,
I have just noticed this issue where you cannot skip inside a track in Google music. I can see the progress bar, I can move it to the center but it comes right away back at the beginning and tune starts again. I have no other music app installed, this device is pretty stock aside from being unlocked and rooted.
The same app works fine in my HTC One, there I can advance in the track.
Any ideas?

Same issue. I'm rooted, but stock. I noticed that if you skip the track then skip back to it, it will sometimes work at that point. Not really the most efficient way to do it, but it works for me. I have to do it a lot, especially when I'm listening to a podcast, which can be hours long.
Anyone else cares to confirm or contradict the above experiment on stock rom? Are you able to move the Google music cursor on the progress bar?
I am also wondering whether related to the other Google music issue where, quite often, it'd suddenly start playing music by itself. Although didn't do that today..

I have same or similar problems, though I've only tried podcasts.. Advancing the track skips it back to the beginning. Using the +30sec button on the widget(s) skips to the beginning. Using the -10sec on the widget skips to the beginning. This happens with the app open, in a widget on the home screen, in a widget on the shelf, and in the notifications pane. It happened on the OnePlus 3 and OnePlus 3t (recently returned 3 for 3+), both new and running stock marshmallow OxygenOS.
Yeah, this is far beyond annoying. By restarting/clearing cache, sometimes this problem goes away for a while but not for long. Interesting that the only manufacturer affected seems to be oneplus, according to my research. Still have this problem after 3.2.8 update

How is this still an issue? I have the oneplus 5 and it's happening to me. Over a year and no fix and only happens to oneplus phones.

[SOLVED] - Problem with built-in casting function MIUI11

Dear All,
I would really appreciate if anyone could help me here.
I have issues with casting my phone screen to a display, let alone choose the advertised options like cast with screen off.
RN8PRO MIUI 11.0.2.0 (PGGEUXM)
When I am on that cast screen and tickle the cast button to the right, it just does nothing at all.
I have seen online people doing the same thing and then it opens a pop-up at bottom of the screen and start searching for display. For me it does not, it just stays there doing nothing.
If I leave that screen and come back it is again disabled.
So my simple question has anyone managed to cast anything using that built-in function?
I can cast using apps with cast-enabled function no issue, and yes I have Miracast enabled device, yet the built-in cast function seems completely broken -or- I have disabled a service it needs to work, idk.
With the app Wireless Display for MIUI I can workaround this and cast my display at the very least, however, I dont have access to any of the cast options advertised on the cast page.
The fact it does not open the small pop-up at bottom of the screen searching for devices makes me think I have some kind of problem, either permissions too restricted on something or some needed services disabled.
Please help if you can.
Regards.

Those two services are needed for casting to work:
Mi Connect Service (com.xiaomi.mi_connect_service)
UniPlay Service (com.milink.service)
So if you debloated your phone you need those two back on and running. If they are, search for remote display happens and remote displays are found as expected.

I have the same problem in note 5 pro and Poco. I read somewhere that mi uses Miracast and it doesn't support Chromecast. Sorry if I am mistaken.

Yes that's also the information I have.
However my problem described above also concerns casting to a Miracast device. The built-in method from settings just does not do anything for me, it does not search for anything at all actually. Therefore cannot find anything either
I am surprised not more people are using casting/mirroring features of their phones, RN8Pro being such a powerfull devices it makes a very nice handcomputer.
I wonder if that built-in function works for anyone.
Regards.
The Cast option does not work for me either.
I use the Wireless display option to cast to Chromecast.
Is there a difference between these two options?
I think I found the solution or at least the source of my own problem (took me enough time...).
As I was expecting I had debloated my phone a bit too much and removed some services needed for features I am using which at that time did not look like that needed for me.
Those two services are:
Mi Connect Service (com.xiaomi.mi_connect_service)
UniPlay Service (com.milink.service)
So if you debloated your phone you need those two back on and running. If they are, search for remote display happens and remote displays are found as expected.
Once you have reenabled those two services, the cast button is again available from the quick access and working.

I know that our phone is using the MiraCast technology which google has been removed from Chromecast (it was there before) and Android starting A9. Xiaomi keeps it in MIUI that's why we still have it.
However what I am uncertain of, is how MIUI is supporting Chromecast too? From what I read you can still mirror to a Chromecast if you are willing to use the Home app.
Myself now that I got some Amazon Fire TV stick, I prefer those a lot more for the same price compared to Chromecast, simply because you can mirror your screen without having to be connected to internet, one among many things that annoyed me on Chromecast. And they used Miracast technology.
Hope this helps.

Yeah I figured this finding would be probably useful to someone. Took me about 3 months to come up with the solution out of random tbh. Strangely none seemed to experience that issue judging by the number of answers I received in that time. And I am expecting people on XDA to debloat their phones out of the box like I did, maybe they were just more cautious than me and went a bit less aggressive on the matter. idk.
Anyway I am glad my findings could help you out too!

I have Redmi Note 8 Pro and casting lags so badly... when I cast my laptop screen to my Philips TV.. there is NO problem at all.. But when I cast my phone's screen - huge lag and distorted picture....

It has been a while since I last attempted to solve this issue.
Last I was working on this, my researches has lead me to think the resolution of the phone which is quite big, might have been too big for casting receiver devices to process smoothly. Casting receivers do not have as big of a display resolution which often is 720p max or maybe lower for some.
As a result my investigations suggested me to try lower the phone display resolution before casting.
Unfortunately I am lacking time to test my theory and see if lowering phone resolution actually improves the playback on the casting device.
Please let us know of your findings if you decide to test those hypothesis yourself.
Good Luck!

I am sorry I have not had time to do some testings myself.
All I know and noticed was while casting from apps with built-in casting feature, it worked like a charm, however as soon as I started to mirror my screen, then it was lagging too.
Back then I assumed it was because of phone resolution vs casting devices because it was way bigger than casting receiver (usually at best 720p max and even 480p for older devices), but if you are saying it does not change anything well I am running out of ideas at the moment.
You changed both the resolution and the density of the screen using the following two commands?
Code:
begonia:/ $ wm size
Physical size: 1080x2340
begonia:/ $ wm density
Physical density: 440
Those are original RN8P resolution and density, they might be both too big for casting devices to handle, idk, might require testing.
Please let us know if your findings.

Can you try debloat this UniPlay Service (com.milink.service) and try whether you are able to cast remote display?
I have the same problem. Both services are active though. MIUI 13 on redmi note 10 pro

Question Can't cast screen to Chromecast with MIUI 13

I bought a Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE this past Saturday. I got two or three system updates which I applied, the last one was too MIUI 13.
Now each time I try to cast my screen to a Chromecast it immediately fails. I get a message "Casting screen to ... has ended". It tries twice with the same result.
The Chromecast display says that the device stopped out failed casting, or something to that extent.
I'm pretty certain that I tried and succeeded to cast the screen before the final upgrade to MIUI 13.
Is anyone else experiencing this? Or the opposite, is it working hope others?
I have the same problem I can't cast anything and it gives me the same message if you solved this problem please tell me

Same here. I also started to get a message "you are about to cast or screen record start or cancel" .not sure whether that is android or miui.(I have a note 10 pro) Anyway, when I click start it disconnects immediately. All very weird . Btw. Problem is mirroring. Casting using chromecast icon works. I guess we have to wait for a miui update
Seems i resolved it from reddit post needed new versions though
I installed / updated cast and casting apps from here
cast and casting casting - i have a poco f3

10th of June - cast still not working
I have a Xiaomi 11 ultra and had same issue. Here is what worked for me after reading the help of the MIUI cast app.
I switched on the "Screen mirroring" app on my Android tv (Chromecast and Google Home could not connect) as soon as I did my TV showed up in the MIUI cast app. It seems to explicitly trigger Miracast on the TV?
Anyway, I selected my TV in the app, it said "registering Xiaomi..." On TV and it worked.
TV now also shows up when "Screen mirroring" on TV is not explicitly selected. So it seems to work going forward.
Google home still says "casting screen has ended". MIUI cast started working reliably though
Had to change source on TV to miracast then open wireless display option on phone, thats the only way to get my phone screen casted... Bit complicated compare to one press of button on my 2017 OP5

Screen Stream Mirroring Pro version 2.6.0. Can get paid mod off internet. Works with Chromecast. There is a delay though. Works fine for streaming video. Also if you have firestick you can put it on the mirroring option and then use the cast setting on your phone to screen mirror. Wi-Fi just has to be on, doesn't even need internet for firestick. I have the same problem with Redmi k50.

On Screen Stream Mirroring Pro you got to go into the audio settings and change it to internal or it'll pick up your phone speaker.
Thanks for your suggestions.
I got an update yesterday and I can now screen cast to Chromecast! MIUI 13.0.9.0 (SKOEUXM)
I think I was a bit quick to celebrate. I was only able to cast the screen one single time.
Important to check what version of the 2 apps you are running... casting and cast apps
I am using cast version 12.4.8.17 and casting version 0.4.32 and running miui 13.0.7.0 (poco f3)
I had an updated and it stopped working, just go to the app (manage apps) and click uninstall updates.
It is important to restart the phone and do not update system apps
Looks like it is finally working again. Miui 13.0.13
I tried to update but only show me the muiu 13.0.4
Hi, I dont know how, but it's works.
Change Regional setting to switzerland, now my miui 13.0.6 start screen mirroring to tv from system setting
