hello

I don't have any problem on my htc one M8, sony tablet Z or nexus 7 (2012) but I can't install the package on my old htc sensation running on stock rom rooted

when I want to install the package, I have the message "there is a problem parsing the package", is it normal?

is something missing on my sensation?

thanx for your help
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
The device needs to be running KitKat 4.4.2 or higher for this to work.
[Google Chromecast] twingo_man:
oh thank you, I'm on 4.0.3

I just have to find a new rom :)
[Google Chromecast] eleph4nt:
Thank you

Works on Xiaomi Redmi 1S WCDMA with CyanogenMod ROM :) Just during sliding down notification bar little jumps tiles when appers one with chromecast option.

Unfortunately with my amazon otter 2 (kindle fire 2) and Android 4.4.2 N2A rom it doesn't work. Chromecast app shows the option for mirroring but after few seconds of black tv's screen the connection goes over.

Are there some possibilities to improve this feature on my kindle?

thanks

This is not working on my HTC One M8 unfortunately, I am the following:

Unlocked Status: S-Off & HTC-Dev Unlocked

ROM: Android Revolution HD 21.0

Firmware: HTC One 3.28.401.7 (WWE) Firmware

OS: Android 4.4.4 (KitKat)

I go to cast the screen, it attempts it (I can see it on my TV) but then immediately says 'Casting has stopped...' I do not get a force close or anything?

Any ideas please?

Working on latest fw Nvidia Shield Tablet Wifi model.

Just confirming that this works on the Nvidia Shield Tablet Wifi model.

Though when starting the app with stock rom, i get the following error: "missing audio.r_submix.default.so" i was still able to use this, and it worked casting on my tv, with some delays in the sound, not sure if it's my wifi network or the missing file..

Anyone got a guide how to do this myself? If i knew, i would be able to provide patches in the appropriate forums and be of good use.

Please reply, eagerly awaiting. :)

I have never seen the Cast Screen option in Chromecast on my Note 3 (N9005) with [MENTION=2332422]temasek[/MENTION] CM11 4.4.4 (up to build 152).

I've tested different ROM's en kernels. I got it working on one stock based ROM (Omega), but none of the CM11's.

So if anyone was able to fix it on the Note 3, please let me know. I would really like to keep using Temasek's CM11.

Have you tried v6?

Hey everybody just wanted to let you know that i tested this on a sprint galaxy note 4 and it works properly. far better, in fact, than the galaxy note 8.0 wifi only and sprint galaxy s3 and s4. that is all.

I wonder if this is the same issue I am experiencing on my HTC One M8, I am using the latest firmware and ARHD 21.0. My tv goes black and then casting immediately stops...hmmm

Could you tell me what you had to do to fix it please? Is it in the info in the first post?

I simply installed the app and clicked on the first option. Didn't edit any files.

You only need to do that if you need to stream from the AllShare cast hub app thingie. Just download the Chromecast app and you should be fine.
[Google Chromecast] obixx:
Hey r3pwn,

Love the work that you have done with mirrorenabler. Any way that you could implement x86 support for your .apk? I unfortunately have a x86 device and would so love to be able to use mirroring with it. Any chance of an update in the future?

Thanks :)
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
I need to get x86 sqlite3 android binaries, and when/if I do, yes, I will add support. :)

I could probably pull them from an x86 android emulator....
[Google Chromecast] clubtech:
What did yoi do to get this working?

I installed the app on a rooted stock ROM and seems i only get a blank screen when connecting tp chromecast. Are you aure you are able to mirror the tablet screen ?

Working nicely on OnePlus. Though watching movies sometimes the audio just stopped, the workaround for me is just restart the screencast connection and the audio is back again. Other than that, browsing thru the phone is a breeze with very little lag only. Thanks for this app.?
[Google Chromecast] trmitche2:
Hi everyone. Over on the Sprint Galaxy S4 forums (specifically, a ROM thread called "Mostly Stock NG2 1.3"), there seems to be a lack of concise info on this particular issue. Since the ROM I'm running on my SPH-L720 is basically just a (mostly) stock, rooted

Touchwiz

ROM, with bloatware removed and a WiFi hot-spot hack, I'm wondering if anyone here can advise me on whether I should just try to run the APK (as one poster in the ROM thread alluded to doing with success), or instead, following the Touchwiz-specific manual mod in the OP, which involves modifying the wfdconfig.xml file, and then re-booting.

This thread is simply too full of short and similar posts to be searched with much success. So I'm asking here which method is advisable. It seems like (maybe) one of the version increments have done away with the need for the Touchwiz manual xml editing approach?

UPDATE: While I've been writing this, another reply from the gentleman who pointed me toward this thread has indicated that he used V5, and it worked on his SPH-L720, and that the manual Touchwiz-specific fix was

not

present at that time. See post #'s 282-284 on page 29 of the thread linked to above for details if you care to.

So, before I take a leap of faith either way, are there any thoughts from those of you who've been watching this thread unfold since V1? Which method should I try first? Any up/down-sides to one method versus the other, especially if they both work?

Sorry, I've just spent so much time installing and tweaking all my apps after rooting/wiping/TWRP/zip-flashing the ROM and the hot-spot hack (you all know exactly what I mean), that I just can't imagine having to Odin back to stock and start the entire process all over again after a soft-brick / boot-loop, especially with the number of complex apps that I have to configure each time. I work in the home-security/automation/surveillance industry, so there are a LOT of things that my Google account cannot just auto-restore. Yes, I use Nandroid and Titanium backup, but the encryption algorithms in some of these very sensitive apps just do not like Titanium or Nandroid. If anyone cares, my main goal for mirroring via ChromeCast is to have an easy way to throw my entire phone screen up onto a 13ft projector screen (without a physical connection) when I'm teaching a training class on a home security or home automation system that includes mobile applications, as most of them do. I currently use VNC server to accomplish this without the Chromecast, but the responsiveness and lag is "iffy" at best, and sometimes down-right embarrassing if it locks up. I won't lie: I'd also love to play Grabatron or Fail Hard with minimal lag on a 13 foot screen! Thanks for reading.

[Google Chromecast] adroidgalaxy:
Well i know some people had success modifying some file in the system folder of a touchwiz based rooted s3... I would suggest the easier route which I'm am so happy i did.

Find a popular, powerful, smooth, well rated, and supported aosp rom for you phone and the hack on the op works beautifully with minimal issues. I had an issue on last rom version but the dev sent out an update that resolved my issue and saved me a once in a blue moon work around.

Just a thought, let me make what you do and most importantly what works :thumbup::)

Hiya all, just wanted to check back in here to let you all know that I ended up simply installing v6 of the mirrorenabling.APK file, running it, & enabling only option 1, and so far, it seems to have worked like a charm! No FC's, no audio issues, & only very minor display lag in data intensive games. So there was no need to do an xml file update, or anything messy like that. Didn't even need to reboot my GS4 phone or my Chromecast app. I just opened the app after running v6 Apk from my internal storage and.... Voila! Thanks to everyone who took the time to provide feedback. Greatly appreciated. In fact, I'm connected to my CC HDMI input right now. & proof-reading this very post from my tv as I type it (1 too many glasses of wine, but hey.....

I feel like a kid on Christmas morning!
[Google Chromecast] dg1981:
I'm trying to screen cast from my LG Gpad 8.3 but cannot see the "Cast Screen" option.

Tablet is rooted and running 4.4.2, mirror enabler is V6. I've tried rebooting (both tablet and chromecast) as has been suggested in earlier posts but that didn't help.

Edit - Nevermind, I got it to work by uninstalling V6 and installing V1 of the mirror enabler apk. Then when I started the V1 version it prompted me to download and install "SQLite Installer for Root" from the google play store, after which screen casting was available in the Chromecast app. I've just updated mirror enabler to V6 and screen casting is still working (very nicely!).

Are you rooted? What options do you have enabled? Are you running a custom ROM? What version of android are you running?

Afraid neither is rooted. The option does appear on my note3 which is rooted.

Is that the reason or is note3 better equipped?

I have looked for but cannot find info on how to root toshiba excite 10 (at300).

Any help is welcome.

Forgot to mention:

Toshiba at300 : 4.1.1

Cheers
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
Yes they need to be rooted. I posted a warning in the OP and in the app itself about this. And also, your Toshiba needs to be running android KitKat (I mentioned that in the post, too, and even prevented non-KitKat users from installing the latest version of the app).
[Google Chromecast] roberto.kompany:
Many thanks. Which is the app you are taking about?

Anyone also knows how to root toshiba excite 10 (at300)? As I havent found anything. I realiae this may not be the right place but just as a followup any help is greatly appreciated.

Music playback error. Couldn't play the track you requested.

I got this error in the title and the attached screenshot, and wanted to post this in the hope that someone with this issue will be helped by this post. Thanks for packing this in an app. I have a GS3 SGH-i747 running CM11, and am stoked i can now cast my phone to Chromecast. Thanks a bunch.

Symptom: Anytime i tried to play music with Google Play Music, that was downloaded to my phone I would get the error "Music playback error. Couldn't play the track you selected." If i was trying to stream in Google Play Music i would get the error "Music playback error. Couldn't play the stream you requested."

Cause: Having Mirror Enabler installed, Mirror Status Enabled, and Force-Close Status Enabled, was causing a conflict with Google Play Music.

Solution: I disable Mirror Status, disable Force-Close fix, and then reboot my phone.

I had that issue too, made an edit to the audio policy.conf and everything worked again with mirror on

[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
There's a solution that allows you to have the best of both worlds (mirroring and audio)! Keep options one and three enabled, but option two disabled, then follow the instructions at the end of the OP for editing the audio_policy.conf file. You can send me a Hangout at wickett06 (at) gmail (dot) com if you need help with it. :)

LG G Pad 7.0

Thanks in advance.
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
The reason is that this works on some devices and not others and is hit or miss for users of the same devices and would probably receive many one star ratings from users that don't know what they're doing. I might be able to submit it to f-droid.

Try disabling the second option in #MirrorEnabler (reboot) then test mirroring. If it causes an FC, then follow the instructions at the end of the OP regarding manually patching the audio policy file. If not, then leave everything the way it is.

Someone earlier recommended installing https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ptSoft.util.sqlite3forroot and installing the sqlite3 binaries then trying #MirrorEnabler again.

Samsung Tab S bootloop after mirrorEnabler install

Ok i got my Tab S into a bootloop installing this mirroring app. i Admit it I did not thoroughly read the caution about picking the 2nd option. No what do I do?

I am running the factory ROM, just rooted. No I did not do a backup (stupid):(

I CANNOT boot into bootloader using adb or any key combination.

I CAN get into recovery so if all else fails I can do a factory reset.

I can access the device via adb commands but I am lost on what to do. Ive tried to uninstall MirroEnabler from adb but I get a failure error. i tried to uninstall from adb shell and adb hangs waiting for the device.

I would appreciate any help as I do not want to do a factory reset unless absolutely necessary
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
You said you can't get into the bootloader via adb or hardware buttons. What exactly do you mean by this? Does it reboot normally?
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Scratch that, after seeing zul8er's post, I rebooted Chromecast, made sure my Media volume was up, turned up the TV volume, started screen cast again and audio

does

work!!! :D

Looks like this AllShare Cast Wireless hub that I recently got may only be useful for testing/comparison purposes, or if my wife refuses to let me upgrade her phone to 4.4.2 as she's currently on 4.2...

Will have to see which one works better with Skype.

Thank you again for this!

Also, may I humbly recommend adding the SQ3lite requirement and your mention of what changes the app makes to the opening post? That will hopefully reduce repeat questions as the thread fills up. :)

I know that it's difficult to program an app like this, but me and other Samsung Galaxy S4 users (CM 11, Android 4.4.4) are facing these problems:

- The sound is really buggy, every sound seems to be produced with a cheap syntetizer and it's super high D:

- The video is perfect, maybe the streaming could be a little bit faster for gaming.

Thanks a lot, I hope my feedback is useful for the developers of this great app :P
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
The very first time I tried it, the Chromecast app didn't show me the option either. Try rebooting your device then running the Chromecast app fresh. It should pop up a cling that tells you Screen Casting is available.

[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
AT&T variant?
[Google Chromecast] rkirmeier:
I could be wrong but I would bet that all this app does is remove the restrictions for whitelisted hardware. Any problems are because Chromecast mirroring is still in beta and/or the hardware you are using does not meet the requirements, hence whitelisted devices..

Works freaking awesome on my S4 w/Beanstalk ROM and my Note 12.2. Notably better then Miracast and with Chromecast I'm going Phone/tablet -> WAP -> network -> WAP -> Chromecast whereas Miracast is using wifi direct! It also connects much faster than Miracast!

Do you have a custom recovery installed? If so, this should be easy. Otherwise, we'll need to restore your device (erasing userdata in the process AFAIK).
[Google Chromecast] mhonard:
No custom recover. I just rooted the factory install to get access to some root only apps

So no other options but to do a factory reset, correct?

Bummer. Better to know now and face reality
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
Not quite. A factory restore fixes the system partition, too, as where a factory reset only removes user data.

(And you need your system partition fixed)

Hi guys,

I'm trying to get this to work on Galaxy S3 running CM11 latest nightly but for some reason it doesnt seem to work.
