I had to move to a TW based ROM to make it work, like other [MENTION=282276]anox[/MENTION] and various people have already said. [MENTION=4919255]CounterC[/MENTION], I guess this is the only way to go, at least for now. Lag is very low, about 0.5s. I'm using QS-I9300-KK with Boeffla kernel and none of Sansung's bloatware. In the begining it was causing my phone to reboot but it's been behaving very well for the last two days. I tried ArchiPort too, but it was very instable (dont't know if I did something wrong).
[Google Chromecast] CounterC:
thanks for info.

unfortunately I have an s2 (gti9100) and there is no tw based kitkat Rom available whatsoever. I don't want to downgrade from kitkat so no luck for me.

Oops double post
[Google Chromecast] vvikke:
Works amazingly well! A bit input-lag though so I can't really play games and so, just show pictures and stuff that doesn't need like 1ms responsetime :) So yes it works, but it isn't perfect ;) But thanks anyway!

It's a Sprint phone.

Bluetooth is working for me with all three mirror options enabled. I was streaming via bluetooth to my knock-off Jawbone box just fine.

What type of streaming apps are you referring to?

Google is pushing GServices 6.1 out now....

So it's a good bet you updated the CCast setup utility before you got the Gservices update....
[Google Chromecast] don.livezey:
I tried this (v5) on my GS3, which is running CM11 M10. I enabled all three options, and the casting seemed to work fine, although I noticed what seems to be the same problem noted here. Various music players (e.g., google play music, apollo, amazon music, ES media player) don't work unless they are casting, if they support it. Some other music players (e.g., winamp, VLC) continue working fine. When I disable the three options presented in the app, everything is back to normal--the music players all work fine, regardless of whether they're casting.

The thread indicates a solution via manual changes to audio_policy.conf. Can anyone please elaborate on the nature of those changes?

Thanks
[Google Chromecast] hwong96:
I'll explain it in a way so you can edit the audio_policy.conf file yourself. The audio_policy.conf file is unique to each model in a manufacturer's lineup and between manufacturers. That is due to the different audio hardware installed on the device. It is more prevalent in older devices, not so much in newer devices. The force close fix option #2 in MirrorEnabler is more of a generic fix.

If you are up to the challenge, here are the steps to edit your own audio_policy.conf file-

1. If you applied option #2 in MirrorEnabler, de-select and reboot device to reset the manufacturer audio_policy.conf file.

2. Make a backup of the manufacturer's audio_policy.conf file in the event you need to restore it.

3. Open your audio_policy.conf file.

4. Open the attached pdf file and copy the red highlighted words from the global configuration section. Paste into your global configuration section as shown. Make sure to include the pipe.

5. Copy the r_submix section highlighted in red and paste into your file as shown. You should have 4 }s at the end. Sampling rate should be 48000.

6. Save your file.

7. Reboot.

Use MirrorEnabler without selecting option #2. You no longer need it if you edit your own audio_policy.conf file.

You now have your device manufacturer's audio_policy.conf file with the audio.r_submix module added. You still need to make sure the audio.r_submix.default.so is baked into the rom. Look in /system/lib/hw. On newer devices look in /system/lib for libaudio.r_submix.default.so.

Not much more I can say.

Ok thank you. Router should be fine because this is working on my s4. I also do not have viper installed so I'm not sure what would be causing this to immediately end the cast.

There is no force closes I'm getting either so it is something maybe blocking just the hack? The chrome cast app maybe?

It works 95% on this cheap pendo pad, but the actual screen on the device is all jargony and distorted so you cant see what you are touching on the screen, but can see it fine on the TV/chromecast.

if you spin the rotation it goes back to normal for a second until you touch the screen again.

Ok let's see.

I'm able to mirroring my Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4.

The problem is that the table freeze after a few seconds, have to manual holding power button for 10 seconds or so to restart it.

I'm on SM-T320 rooted, using stock rom.

Things I've tried so far:

Different routers

Different tvs

Different launchers on tablet

AC adapter (to see if chromecast needed more power)

Upgraded firmware

Removed bloatware

Flashed latest CM11 (now works but audio is out of sync when playing a local movie or streaming from dreambox)

What more can I do? Seeing other people success with their tab pro makes me angry, what's wrong?? :eek:

New info:

I just noticed that when the tablet freeze, internet connection on my computers goes down "standard gateway is not available"

Strange coincidence huh? Any help at all would make me happy! :)

Hey guys, I own moto g 4g and I see my only option to mirror my screen decently is through this hack.

Just before I order Chromecast I like to make a question.

I basically need it to mirror my screen when watching from xbmc streamed movies (1channel etc). Is it feasible to stream a movie from internet via xbmc and on the same time mirror screen to Chromecast?? All through home WiFi.

[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
Unfortunately, that is correct. It installs custom audio drivers that prevent your device from playing nice with Chromecast. It might be possible for them to fix that. Not sure, haven't asked them...

Anyway, back on topic, I just checked the mirroring and it works.. The quality of the video is only okay, but I think that has more to do with my crappy router than anything else.

No problems here, works well on i747. Happy casting!

Sgs3 i9305 lagged

I have rooted my phone, installed CM 11, just do install Mirror Enabler. I did so, but the mirroring is so lagged, and there is something like 2 images per seconds instead of, say, 20/30 normally. I am so disappointed, what can I do? I have the sgs3 i9305 with 2gb of ram, that should be more than enough to use cast screen, but it doesn't, please help! When I disconnect cast screen, the phone recovers its full speed.
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
The amount of RAM isn't everything. Your phone has an Exynos chip in it, which doesn't exactly "play nice" with mirroring, so you should be happy that it even works at all. It's a little choppy on my Kindle Fire HD 7", as well, but I don't know what, if any, improvements can be made to fix the lag. Plus, this "hack" wasn't specifically tailored for any device, and can't really be tailored for a specific device.

Thank you for your prompt reply. If my understanding is correct, then I can forget about casting videos to my TV via screen mirroring...

Go to system/etc/wfdconfig.xml

Find the following lines:*

<ContentProtection>

<Valid>1</Valid>*(Change this 1 to a 0 and reboot)

<Version>WFD_HDCP_2_1</Version> <!-- Valid values WFD_HDCP_2_0 and WFD_HDCP_2_1 -->

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 8" and according to Samsung is capable of mirroring - but only with their MHL cable which costs $60 but I have a generic MHL that I use for my HTC One and it does not work on Tab 4. Do you think this mod would make my Tab 4 work with generic MHL?

No, it would not. It only works with enabling Chromecast mirroring via WiFi.

Thanks for the information. I just have one other question - I also have HTC Media link that I use with my HTC One. I tried it with my Tab 4 and i can stream videos and music using a playstore app called "Wi-Fi Media" but it does not mirror the phone screen like it does on my HTC One (only streaming of videos, music, etc.). Do you think this mod might make my Tab 4 do a full mirror with my HTC MediaLink device like on my HTC One or is this exclusively Chromecast?
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
Exclusively for Chromecast.

My S4 works PERFECTLY. Hope it is as flawless on my S3 with your settings. What ROM are you running on your S3?

Also if you can upload the .XML with the fix done I could probably put it into a flashable zip or have the Ron developer make the fix in his ROM for the next update.

Was able to get it working on a HTC Jewel (Evo 4G LTE) and HP Touchpad. Problem is that after a few minutes of using (either device), the quality becomes bad (very washed out/blurry) and mirroring becomes pointless. The screen on the actual device looks just fine, it's just the image on the TV. Anyone experiencing the same or have any ideas of how to solve?

Thanks r3pwn for all of your work on this.

No problem. I made the changes to my own file and will test once I get home and access to my Chromecast. I am currently running Enewmans S3Rx 4.0. If it does work I will let Enewman know in case he wants to add it into his ROM. If so I will make sure you get credit.
