Smart View not working? - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers

I had a Samsung Note 9 and Smart view worked just fine. I recently upgraded to a Note 10 Plus and now my Smart view now no longer allows me to connect and mirror my phone to the Shield TV. Is there a fix for this?

Are you using a VPN on the shield or your phone?
I have note 10+ (android 9) and it works for me.

I'm on Android 11. Could that be the reason?

Can't connect my Note 8 to my Samsung TV

Hi, can anyone help me. Before I put the CM 12 on my Note 8 I could connect it to my TV via Screen mirroring easily.
Now I have the possibility in the settings, but it cant find the TV.
As before both are in the same WIFI network.
I can do this with my Sony unrooted device as i could do it before.
Does someone have the right .apk or an Idea how to fix it.
I like to have just the display of the tablet on my TV nothing else.
The Samsung app from the playstore doesnt work.
Thanks Chris

What error is it giving?
The app store says it's not compatible with my device (tablet), and won't install. I sideloaded it but the watch refuses to connect, tried everything. Called Samsung support and they confirmed it's not compatible with my tablet. Watch is going back. I really like the watch but as I don't have a cell phone it's next to useless to me.
Samsung Galaxy tablet will not connect to a Samsung Galaxy watch, unbelievable.

Why buy a watch designed to work with a phone if you don't have one?
How on earth don't you have a phone anyhow?

Smartview Not Mirroring Properly

I think Samsung borked something up in Android 10. or at least in its Smartview app. I am unable to mirror to a Miracast WiFi adaptor, nor to a Miracast enabled TV. I enabled Miracast on a Sony TV and connected my Note 10+ to it. It connected to the TV, but it is not mirroring my phone's screen. It will show my photos and videos I have in Gallery, but it won't cast a video from Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video, or Movies Anywhere. I tried it with a Microsoft Wireless Display Adaptor and got the same results.
My Galaxy Tab S5e has no problems mirroring to a Miracast TV or Miracast wireless adaptor. I connected and mirrored my Tab S5e to the exact same devices my Note 10+ connected to. I had no problems playing content from the same apps that I tried on my phone. My Tab S5e is running Android 9
Before I upgraded to Android 10, I had no problems mirroring my phone screen using Miracast.
I have tried rebooting my phone, clearing the cache on both Smartview and the phone, and clearing the data on Smartview. I have also reset my network connections on my phone.
You might have it in Dex mode instead of mirror mode

How do you try to mirror your screen?
Because i go in smart view and from there in smart things. There i have the option to mirror my screen on to my TV.

That is correct. It connects to the TV and Miracast adapter, and shows a borked up version of my phone's screen.
I get the same results with and without Smart Things installed.

Ok but do you change the aspect ratio when it is connected?

Did you do it from the blue icon that appears when connected?

Yes. I've even tried a couple 3rd party Miracast mirroring apps and got identical results. Samsung borked up something either in Smartview or Android 10. I'm thinking Smartview is the problem.
I just tried it on my Samsung smart TV and got identical results. I couldn't get it to mirror properly on three different devices: a Sony TV, a Microsoft Wirelles Display Adaptor, and a Samsung Smart TV. It could be an issue with DeX, but I can't find where to check.

Can't claim that the smartview is the problem because i don't have any problems what so ever!

Thanks. That doesn't help.
What model Note 10 are you using? I have the Verizon Note 10+ 5G. I did not have this problem on Android 9. My Tab S5e (Verizon), which is still on Android 9 is having no issues screen mirroring.

I am using the Note 10 plus unlocked version. Don't care for 5G at the moment:laugh:
I know that i do not help. But nevertheless you have one opinion.
Did you clear the cache after the last update?

I just discovered that my Samsung TV won't mirror to my phone. When I try to mirror from TV to phone, all I get is the audio. I don't get the picture. Before upgrading to Android 10, I could watch what was on my TV on my phone (comes in handy when I am in the kitchen).

Yes. As well as clearing app cache and app data for Smart View. And it is a fact that my phone is not screen mirroring properly, not an opinion.
I'm tempted to do a factory reset. I just don't want to go through the butt pain of setting everything back up.

I think Smart View is a buggy thing. My phone won’t connect unless the source is set other than HDMI 1 (Sky). Even then I can’t set it to watch TV on my phone.
For me, the most annoying is the fact that I can’t zoom in while playing video in Smart View, like I can when playing it on the phone. Every time I try, I get the error on phone: “Zoom is not supported for this video size (176 x 144)” I’ve no idea what that means, whether it’s to do with Smart View, the Video Player or the TV its self.
Has anyone tried it?
My 10+ won't mirror, but my galaxy tab 4 works perfect.
Maybe it is the phones. Maybe it works flawlessly with Samsung TVs only.

I thought that too. But I get the exact same results with my Samsung Smart TV.

You are not alone brother! I am having same issue with my a70 after android 10 upgrade. Thank you.
Looks like Sammy is deprecating Smart View come October so likely not going to be investing much in fixing defects.
Btw, I also tried it using both One UI and Microsoft Launcher and neither worked. I'm wondering if it is because of DRM.
