As soon as I plugged it in and connected the dongle,it had a update. Not sure if that would resolved previous issues or not,

I don't have any 3d games but I watched a movie and I had no issues
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gareee:
People here has reported update, but still no one has conformed that 1080p hd movies work properly, or 3d "advanced" games. 720p will work fine, or non hd.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] P0ll0L0c0:
I've played Dungeon Explorer 3 and Asphalt 7, and both worked relatively well. Its obvious they're not high res apps. I have also played A LOT of 1080p videos and they work well using bs player. However, the output is downgraded to 720p. An mhl cable is noticeably sharper, but I still prefer to use the dongle.

I've mentioned it before, but bs player is especially sweet with the dongle because you can output a bluray to your tv, while using most of your phone's screen to do something else, like surf the web.

Hi

I have FC after connect my tv with Allshare cast dangle.

"curerent Allshare connection will end"

I use neat rom lite LLA with yank kernel.

My custom counter is reseted by Triangle Away.

Dongle firmware version is LJ02 so it is current

Maybe do you have any suggestions?

Odp: [Review] Allshare Cast Dongle - lag/disconnection problems solved

Do you have flash counter reseted?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] aznmode:
Doesnt make a difference for me. I'm on stock rooted tmobile JB with zero counter. I used to be able to go back to ICS and get it to work but after the dongle update it doesn't work anymore.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] chrismast:
1st: Did you reset your counter? (check with Triangle Away, it seems that the Dongle checks the counter count and if not 0 does not allow a connection, at least for a lot of people that is the case)

2nd: Try a stock un-rooted rom. Here again, it is up to some kind of luck I guess, as for me, I am rooted since the beginning and my Dongle works fine, even with custom Sammy roms as e.g. null_ (despite the usual 1st time not connecting)

3rd: out of ideas :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] smrsxn:
Background

- i have galaxy note 10.1 tablet. Gt-n8013. Jelly bean 4.1.2 firmware. Stock. Unrooted.

- i have at&t galaxy s3. Jelly bean 4.1.1. Stock unrooted.

- LJ02 version of all share cast dongle.

Now, when i connect my tablet to tv via dongle, its so nice and responsive. No lags. I can play games reasonably well, watch movies.

But, when i connect s3 to tv via dongle, its very laggy, unresponsive, connection keeps dropping.

Deductions

- there is no issue with power supplied to dongle. As my tablet works.

- i have tried to reset dongle, reboot s3 tricks.. no change in situation.

- software version on dongle can't be an issue for me, as tablet works

- issue can logically be only at two places.

1) with my s3.

2) maybe something to do with aspect ratio difference between my tv and s3 screen.

Was any of you in similar situation? Were you able to solve it? How?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] smrsxn:
Further noticed that the connection probles reduce between S3 and dongle, if I come close to the dongle. If I go further away from the dongle, connection becomes worser.

Maybe it could be the fact that galaxt S3 does not have a powerful wifi direct modem, while note 10.1 tablet has a much better modem.

When I get back home tonight, I will try the connection after taking the case of my galaxy s3, to see if that improves anything.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] yodaddyleo:
I did reset the counter, but after rebooting, it always switched back to 1. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling triangle away, no luck. Read on another thread that it's the KERNEL. Didn't know I had a different kernel installed (and to be honest, not sure if I really did), but bit the bullet last night and went back to stock unrooted. Happy to report the dongle works fine. No lag on my recorded videos; however, tried running NBA League Pass and saw a significant delay between video/audio (video was about 2 seconds ahead of the audio).
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ttxxaa:
my dongle connect fine and stable with s3 and note 10.1

but the big issue its not smooth especially on videos playback it is laggy (same as when you play hd video on tigra 2 devices )

i tried it with jelly bean 4..0.4 stck rom on note and 4.1.2 on s3 bath have the same issue

i am sure the problem is not from the player because the YouTube playback is also laggy

can any one help me to fix it ?

i feel i payed alot money for nothing :mad:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] liviococcia:
I've just recently purchased, and used my AllShare cast hub, i use a completely "stock run from when it was new" Samsung Galaxy Note2 GT-N7105(i never like this rooting business from the outset).

I've always accepted, and installed all of the phones updates, as they've been notified to me, and prior to even thinking, or knowing what the AllShare cast even was, I was notified that through the Samsung apps updater of this app, then subsequently a second patched update to the AllShare driver/App was notified to me, which I installed.

I don't have loads of apps installed, and very few which are hardware manipulative in there function, but they are are all from, and installed via the 'Play store'.

I did eventually purchase the AllShare hub, the model I got was a EAD-T10UDEGXEU, manufacture date on the box is 21/8/2012, (I'm not sure if this model is the latest, or if the EAD-T10UDEGSTD models are).

I connected it up as described in the TV screen, and the enclosed 'manual', at first it would only connect after turning the Wifi module on first, once I figured this out, it then connected and offered me the 'firmware' update for the unit.

It does work for me, and there is a lag(slight though it is), and I use it on a cheap 'Bush' 26" TV which is not Full HD, i do have to change the aspect ratio to 16:9.

The sound is ok, but listenable I say (nothing special though).

My point to all of this is, that I've read this entire thread with interest, and my conclusion is that to get the hub to work well, and not have a larger chance of failures, connection problems, or reduced lagging issues, I think that users who want to consider this accessory need to give it a level playing field, and keep too, or, a least start off with the Samsung's stock product issued for the phone, after all, all there development and testing is being done under this basis, and not while the phones running JB 4.2, or Rocket rom, using an adapted kernal or while it's rooted.

It's obvious Samsung knows this Android opensource os manipulation is all going on, and they don't want it happening when it effects there hardware's function now, or for there future product integration and development.

I don't install, or run games on my phone, and I don't have apps that I don't have a genuine need of, I'm not a user who installs things on a fleeting whim, only to then casually have to uninstall it.

Regards

All worked good but today I get FC disconnected.

I didn't change anything.

I use custom rom with stock repacked kernel.

As I said I didn't change anything. Yesterday it worked...

Try to use Triangle Away and reflash kernel but doesn't help
[Galaxy S III Accessories] liviococcia:
If it worked ok yesterday, and your using the same TV, you've not installed anything or made changes today, and doesn't connect or keeps disconnecting today, is it possible that RFI within the Wifi bands that the AllShare use could possibly being interfered with?

I had an issue once with the Wifi dongle of an XBox being disconnected every time the microwave in the kitchen was turned on, this didn't occur to me until it someone was using it on a short timer and doing it multiple times, it was either power mains pollution or the oven was generating a radio frequency as it was being used.

Also, I remember when I had the first Galaxy Note, i did root the phone back then but it was still stock ICS 4.0.1, i found If something was not working i would go into Clockworkmod recovery do a dalvik cache wipe, and a temp partition cache wipe, i lose all my bluetooth and wireless settings, but this would sort things out.

That's one of the reasons why after trying the 'rooted' setup on my first GNote, for me, i saw no real benefit being rooted, and, that I was very reliant on having a phone that would give me hopefully less possibilities of having issues.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] chrismast:

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gareee:
Actually, it doesn't mirror 1080p, and drops frames on games. If you read just this thread here, you'll see others with issues, and returning it for refunds because of the ongoing issues.

If it worked properly, it would mirror whatever was on the phone exactly as you see it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] chrismast:
Ok, then I understood your sentence wrong as you did not add the 1080p thing and were just talking about mirroring. And yes you are right, it is a known issue that it does not mirror 1080p but 720, we discussed this in the whole thread ;), and yes I am in this thread since it started...

Odp: [Review] Allshare Cast Dongle - lag/disconnection problems solved

Yes, this update is funy.

Don't know why Samsung made this
[Galaxy S III Accessories] tony yayo:
I'm on Tmobile Note 2 and posted this there as well, but after a bunch or experimenting and dozens of reboots and triangle aways, here's what I got.

Somehow got it working again. Even disconnected, rebooted, and still was able to connect again. First off, you HAVE to have your TV turned to whatever HDMI input you have it plugged in to. If you have it running and accidentally change the HDMI on your TV you will lose the connection in a couple of seconds. So, if you've been experimenting trying to get a connection while watching cable or something in the meantime, it's not gonna work, that reason alone causes you to lose connection.

Here's what I did:

Honestly, step 3 may be all that's required but thought I'd give the whole rundown. Somebody try only the method in step 3 for me and test?

1) Did the pre-requisite, stock rooted, stock kernel, stock recovery. Triangle away, which always had to use special recovery and not sure if that is common or not, but anyway, read somewhere about allowing a tracker and that changed my device status to normal. Thought about unchecking the option to allow the tracker to test if it would still work but since I'm having success at the moment I don't want to mess with it, but somebody else feel free to test.

2) Downloaded an available update from the Samsung Apps app even though I had already done it from the Play Store. Figured nothing worked before I did it so what could it hurt? Pretty unsure this had nothing to do with it but thought I'd try anyway and wanted to include the step for those that want to do exactly what I did.

3) Read somewhere else about doing a hard reset on the dongle itself. If you hold down the reset button for about 30 seconds you see it cycle through some colors and patterns. Once it stays red continuously for about 5 seconds it should be done. I think it'll start flashing red now. Wait a few seconds and then hold the reset button again til it turns solid blue. Immediately turn on Allshare and let it start scanning. The dongle should now have a different name then before, if it doesn't, then you haven't reset it completely and it may not work so keep doing it until the dongle gets renamed.

That's it, so far so good, I'm gonna try it again in the morning but after spending most of my spare time today dedicated to get this working I think I finally have it figured out. Would be very interested to see if this works for those running custom roms as well? Please test this people, I think I finally have it!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] chrismast:
Good to hear that it works for you! And also a good summary of our last discussions here.

For your first point of you have to be on HDMI channel on TV: It is working for me also without being on the HDMI channel all the time. I left my phone connected a few times and watched TV and it did not disconnect. But maybe worth a try for some other people here facing issues.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] tony yayo:
I notice after changing to a different HDMI, while the phone is off it will show its connected, but soon as I wake up the screen it has the disconnected warning.

Did a bit more testing this morning. Flashed CWM recovery, device status showed modified, Allshare wouldn't connect. Ran Triangle Away again, device status back to normal, connected on first try. So apparently stock recovery is not a necessity but device status normal is. Dirty flashed Frosty JB since it's as close to stock as a custom rom could be and had the same base I was already using. Now device status is modified and Triangle Away doesn't change it back to normal. Of course, now it's not working. Tried to reset the dongle as I did last night but I think it needs to make a new and relatively immediate connection in order to completely reset and change it's name. Being modified is keeping it from being able to even connect fully in the first place so establishing the new connection isn't possible.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] chrismast:
Triangle Away never changes your device status from modified to normal, for that you have to flash a stock rom. Triangle Away just resets the counter (which is not directly connected to the device status) (at least on the S3). I am running the dongle with counter 0 and device status modified since the beginning.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] sirooga:
Triangle away does have the ability to change from modified to normal but you have to reset it every reboot.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] chrismast:
maybe we have to talk about the definition of system status. There are, besides the counter which Triangle Away resets to 0, the binary system status in your recovery AND your system status of your rom (System settings => About device => Status). As per my knowledge and the Triangle Away thread, only the binary status can be reset to "official" but not the system status of your rom which is anyway not important for the dongle, but please correct me if I am wrong.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ppsa:
Hi, do yo mean that if I run Triangle Away every reboot my dongle will be recognised as stock status kernel recovery and so on?

---------- Post added at 07:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:23 PM ----------

The last option is system modified status. It works to set it back to normal. That still does not fix the dongle for me. I have the paid version which should be the same one that is on xda. Maybe it is just changing the actual text for all I know.

AW: [Review] Allshare Cast Dongle - lag/disconnection problems solved

I am on Omega v43.1, for me it also works with Siyah v1.8.9 and Boeffla 2.8 kernels after some playing around with settings.

I'm not really sure, if it is necesssary, but I froze the dongle update 1.2.2102 in titanium backup. Sometimes it helps to reset the dongle or to deactivate wifi, sometimes I have to connect 2 or 3 times until the connection stays established.

But sooner or later, I get it working.

Annoying, but it's possible...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] chrismast:
For me it's working fine with custom kernel (siyah) and rom (null) since day one, hence I would not generalize your statement as it depends somehow in each user's luck :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mertzi:
I felt I wanted to add another user experience since I myself always appreciate reading what others think. It works for mirroring as stated, but video playback is pretty jerky at times and the framerate is not transferred correctly giving a lot of judder even though my tv receives a 60hz signal which should work problem free. I have tried playing hd material and as others have said it works (my tv is not full hd so I don't know if 1080 works) but there is a regular judder every third or fourth second when the pictures is panning which I suspect is because of a bad pulldown solution which should be software related. I haven't tried gaming yet so I don't know how that works.

I'm glad I got this on sale at half the price cause it is not worth the high full price, but for streaming Ted and youtube wirelessly it's ok, but for a media center solution it's out of the question.

Odp: [Review] Allshare Cast Dongle - lag/disconnection problems solved

Try with 30fps video. If it's fine, then you're seeing a problem, where dongle tries to fit 24 or 25 video frames per second (most popular fps in movies) into 60 frames per second which your TV displays. It's not an easy task to do it perfectly. Some video frames might be visible on tv during 2 tv frames, while others will take 4 or 1 or 3 etc. You can't get smooth playback in this case. However if dongle matched tv refresh rate with video fps all would be perfect. Sadly it doesn't and probably never will.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mertzi:
I'm going to try more with a lot of different formats plus on a different screen and my projector. But the thing you're mentioning about the tv not being able to handle 24fps is not because of the tv, cause I have my pc connected to it as well and I get perfect playback with 1366x768@60hz. I don't know why but I have read somewhere that 24p material should play fine with 60hz if the TV is not total crap. The pulldown issue is always a concern and when you learn about all this stuff and get used to perfect playback you get very sensitive to any judder. My projector can receive 1920x1080@24hz and with XBMC I can enable a tiny speed up from 23.976 to 24fps and you get 100% smooth playback. I have become the definition of anal!

You have to push and hold the reset button for a few seconds.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jackos:
If you're running stock I suggest you try a hard reset. The "disconnected after connected" problem is related to ROM or some other random weird stuff you installed.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] chrismast:
then maybe try, as mentioned and I guess Jackos was referring to it, a factory reset of your tablet and try to connect with the tablet and pure stock conditions without any additional apps installed.
