[MENTION=4732871]r3pwn[/MENTION] Hi there i ve just read your post about enabling chromecast mirroring on any device , i checked the supported devices , mine seems to be on the list it is the gaalxy s4 mini, i ve rooted my phone and now i m using the carbon room, will the mirroring wokk on my dveice ? i also read the requirements needed ,honestly i have no idea what they are and if i have them on my phone. thanks

sorry my english is not good , saludos desde colombia.
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
What doesn't work about it? Does the option show up? Do you get a Force-Close?
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
Yes, it should work. Go ahead and give it a try. The only way something could go wrong is if you are running a Samsung device on a stock ROM.
[Google Chromecast] andi_79:
Hi

yes 4.4.2 and root.

is the chromecast app from google play the right one?

thanks
[Google Chromecast] alifibb:
does not work on HTC One M8 running ARHD 21.0

After enabling the hack, pursuing cast to screen in the Chromecast app shows a toast "casting screen to Chromecast had ended" and then "disconnecting".
[Google Chromecast] andi_79:
Now it works, and very good for a beta version..

you can put the HTC Desire 601 Zara UL as working with your patch.

Great work

thanks...!!

Edit: I just have installed the chromecast 1.7 apk version.
[Google Chromecast] miatawnt2b:
I've gone through all the steps with my SGS3, and while I can access the cast screen option, when I click on it and try to connect to my chromecast it will immediately disconnect. Any other things I can try?

[Google Chromecast] xCAVEMANx:
Works out of the box on latest likewise ROM for i747...a bit laggy on what I tested but to be expected. Streaming video to my phone via the web and then streaming it to Chromecast isn't optimal. I am going to try with a video file straight from my phone and check.
[Google Chromecast] wmarcin:
Thanks for pointing me to the xposed fix module. Unfortunately, I'm still unable to find the "on switch" for screen casting in quick settings.

Am I supposed to enable all 3 options (incl. Force-Close Fix (option # 2)) in the # mirror Enabler app settings?
[Google Chromecast] the_mentor:
It seems to start something on the chromecast and then closes right away.

I don't get a force close or anything like that.

It seems to connect and disconnect right away.
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
If mirroring works fine without the second option, do not activate it. The QS tile should pop up with the third and first options checked only, but it's possible that your OEM removed it.
[Google Chromecast] Mad07:
It doesn't matter - The screen mirror on switch in the quick settings means the own Samsung Mirror protocol -is not a must to have. Open Chromecast and select from the menu the 3rd point (after the app has found your CC) -transfer screen. For a test it's enough option1 from the enable App. Option 2 can end in a FC , Option3 is optional

You can see,if the enable App was working, if there is the possibility for screen mirror in the chromecast App is visible (transfer screen)

In depend of your Rom.... I have the same problem with my A510 till this moment. It should be a kernel issue....
[Google Chromecast] the_mentor:
Since I use Cyanogenmod it would have been nice if someone submitted a patch for this.

Thanks for the help and this awesome app.
[Google Chromecast] phillipssat:
In latest Omnirom with Sony tablet z mirroring runs with all Options enabled.

BUT the 2. Option makes Google music APP and Amazon mp3 APP stop playing music anymore..

Any Idea ?
[Google Chromecast] wmarcin:
That's it! On my Moto X I get a quick settings tile. I never had to go to Chromecast to turn it on. On Note Pro, there is no such tile.

But enabling it through Chromecast works!

Thanks a bunch!
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
Disable option 2 and try manually patching your audio policy file by following the instructions at the very end of the original post.
[Google Chromecast] phillipssat:
Where to find the config to fix ?
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
/system/etc
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
Yes, you have to manually patch that file. Also, please don't paste its contents into a comment, as it can get lengthy. If you upload the file, I could patch it for you, if that's what you wanted.
[Google Chromecast] phillipssat:
The last part is nearly the same as the patch but 44100 and 48000

Not sure what exactly missing in original..

APP allows no txt-file upload...
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
You could upload to a file sharing service (Google Drive, Dropbox, MediaFire, etc.) and post the link here.
[Google Chromecast] phillipssat:
Now with browser .. Added .txt
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
I'm on mobile, so I uploaded it to pastebin here:

http://pastebin.com/VFmt8MiC

You can do a few things to apply this. The easiest method would be to replace everything in /system/etc/audio_policy.conf with the paste, but you could also hit the Download button, move it to the folder manually, and apply proper permissions.
[Google Chromecast] phillipssat:
Thanks.

But with your Version, gogglemusic and amazon mp3 broken , and mirroring not OK.

?
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
Are you sure? Be sure option 2 is switched off. Keep it off, even after patching.
[Google Chromecast] phillipssat:
yes. ?

New config is not ok for mirroring and Musik apps
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
That's odd. It sounds the only option would be revert my patch. You could then disable number 2 when you need to listen to music and enable it when you need mirroring.
[Google Chromecast] phillipssat:
The only reason for mirroring was to hear amazon mp3 in AV- Receiver...

Because amazon mp3 is not chromecast compatible...

Unfortunately, not at the moment. There's a non-root way to mirror in Lollipop now, though. Check out Koush's app for that.

A little easier way (for some)

Thanks for one of the popular and working solutions.. :) I was just about to apply that and I just wondered what happens if I try "Cast Screen" option in my One with my Samsung Smart TV, and I got it working with little efforts! Here's the thread I posted:

http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-one/general/howto-oneplus-one-cast-screen-smart-tv-t2938752

Not working on Nook HD+ CM11

Hi I tried to use the enabler to Nook HD+ CM11 (official), bu failed.

The "cast screen" appeared in Chromecast app. But when starting "cast screen", it closed the connection immediately.

I read through and found this "Nook HD+ (as of v4) (ROM MUST HAVE APPLIED FIX, CHECK ABOVE)".

Does it mean that:

A. I need v4 not v6 to make it work? and

B. Also need apply Fix to make it work?

Does the "fix" refer to

"Check /system/lib/hw directory for the file "audio.r_submix.default.so".

If it doesn't exist, ask your device maintainer to add audio.r_submix.default to

the product_packages in the device.mk file. (You may not know what it means, but they will.)"

I checked and found the "audio.r_submix.default.so" in that folder. But it didn't work like I said.

What else I can do?

Thanks.
[Google Chromecast] phillipssat:
Did you reboot after installed ? Everytime after changes you have to reboot !
[Google Chromecast] taller238:
What are the "changes" are you saying?

I already had the "audio.r_submix.default.so" in place (CM11), and Chromecast app installed.

The only changes are the "mirror-enabler v6" app I just installed - I installed it and ran it and enabled all three options.

Then I saw "cast screen" option under my Chromecast app. Then tried, and not working.

You mean I need reboot to make it work (o/w not working), even the only change is the installing of the mirror-enabler v6?

Appears wierd but please confirm.

Thanks.

---------- Post added at 11:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 AM ----------

May I ask what version or change you applied to make it work?

I tried in my sgs3 and always got an early close. Did you bother to get the "audio.r_submix.default.so" thing?

I found it already in place in my rom - slimkat 7.2.1.

Thanks for advice.

Hi!

Working perfect on my Mi 4W! ??

I tried on my galaxy tab 3 10.1 but not working... I had installed chromecast, then installed v6 of your apk and enabled first and third options then rebooted, but mirroring option that appears on my Mi 4W on the MenuDrawer does not appear on the tablet. I searched for /system/etc/wf... file but it does not exists.

Any idea on how to get it working on this tablet?

Technically how did you do that?

Just using ES Explorer to put the file in, or need kind of "baking" skills like re-compiling the source?

Can you detail that or provide a link?

Thanks.
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
I stated in a few places that it is not working on Lollipop and It would be very difficult to get it to work, which I do not have the time for. Please use Koush's app, "Mirror", for now.

I appreciate your honesty on the subject and understand that you don't have time. However, I would like to point out that on the stock rom rooted for my 2012 Nexus 7, Koush's mirror app will not mirror my screen to the Chromecast. I can record my activities to a video though.

Thanks for getting this feature on KitKat though. It was awesome!
[Google Chromecast] sunnycheeba:
Someone in the Nexus 7 forum claims to have screen mirroring working in Lollipop. Their method requires root, busybox and SQLite Editor (paid version).

[MENTION=4732871]r3pwn[/MENTION] I was using Mirror enabler on a N7 2012 (stock 4.4, rooted, xposed) and I have a bootloop now after turning on the quicksettings cast tile option. I've tried to reflash the stock image (without wiping userdata) to no avail. Is there a file inside the device that I can delete so the bootloop doesn't happen? Like adb and then delete the QS file.

Much appreciated

Hi. I have a samsung galaxy s3 with CyanogenMod 11 M11. Reading previous posts I don't understand if this patch works on my phone.

I want use it with my Chromecast.

If you have more informations abount my phone, please help me.

Thank you.
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
The only way to know if it will work is to try it yourself. The worst thing that could happen is that, after you reboot, your audio doesn't work and you will have to turn it off and reboot again. If you were running stock, it would be a little more risky.
[Google Chromecast] angel89g:
Thank you. To install it I have to use the normal process of install an app?

Another thing: if I want to delete this patch is there a way or I have to reflash the ROM?

If you edited the wfdconfig file like you said you did, you should be able to cast your screen via Samsung's AllShare Cast (or whatever it's called) app.

Even with latest Chromecast app, there is no screencasting option. Always to good to be true , will keep looking..thanks.
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
What version of #MirrorEnabler are you running? Which Android version? And lastly, what phone?
[Google Chromecast] fletchb1:

Phone has no built in mirroring..fwiw.
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
Are sure that the root is functioning properly?
[Google Chromecast] fletchb1:
Well it's stock except for Root. titium backup does work fine however. When I enable mirror from your app, it says its working and says changes saved, FWIW.
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
Try rebooting then seeing if it's there. It should have worked.
[Google Chromecast] fletchb1:
I did the first time, but will try again. One thing though about root. On my old phone I added SU for terminal access. I have read this is needed for other apps as well though TB works fine without it. So maybe I need this as well?

Also by any chance do you know if this will work with a Samsung Galaxy tab 4? I know it has *some* kind of mirror casting in it. I just found a really great Black friday deal on it and ordered it for my girlfriend. No biggie if no, as I got it cheap :)

Thanks.
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
Yeah, try adding terminal access. And if you manage to get the Galaxy Tab rooted, this should work just fine. :) (just don't use option 2. It causes boot loops on Samsung tablets for some odd reason)
[Google Chromecast] fletchb1:
Ok I added su and also a root checker and it said all is fine so not sure whats up.

but I got the tab on the way so no worries..!

not works on samsung tab 3 SM-T211 with stock android 4.4.2 .

I have root permission and enable all three buttons on Mirror_enabler v5 , reboot, but when use chromecast to share screen, I can see a black screen on TV and after one second on smartphone screen appears chromecast disconnected message.

I try v6 too, using only first flag but with same result.

I haven't audio.r_submix.default.so in /system/lib/hw but I not understand where are path files described in [MENTION=3900214]runandhide05[/MENTION] link in android filesystem.

p.s. sqllite installer is no longer required from mirror_enabler ? It not ask me to install sqllite...
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
Nope. It's no longer required. I found a way to make it so that SQLite is no longer required to be installed. I currently do not have a fix for the black screen, buy it may (keyword "may") work on a custom ROM.
[Google Chromecast] tulkas85:
Thank you. So is not important that audio.r_submix.default.so miss in system dir?

Can you suggest me a custom ROM for SM-T211 ?

Do you know if someone has done it with this device ?
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
That could be what is chasing the black screen. It doesn't look like there are many custom ROMs for that specific model. Do you absolutely NEED data? The only ROMs available are for the wifi-only version, but will almost definitely work on yours (I said almost, so don't blame me if something goes wrong). The only downside to that is that data will no longer work.
[Google Chromecast] tulkas85:
Do you refer at CM11 made by [MENTION=3034891]gr8nole[/MENTION]'s ? . It's for SM-t210, but I don't know if data connection is the only thing that doesn't work on my device .

I need data connection, I could try it only for testing mirroring but after I must return at stock ROM.

Maybe it's not worth the trouble
[Google Chromecast] r3pwn:
No, it would probably not be worth it.

I don't know if there are any ROMs with the audio submix module for the Galaxy Nexus. You'd have to look. As for the Lollipop issue, I am working on it. Slowly, but working it it.

hello,

Thank you for this great application , I have a problem because I am running 4.1.2 and am forced to stay because of a French TV ORANGE Application that detects mirroring if I am running 4.4.2 and does not want to launch ...

So I managed to dowgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.1.2 but since mirroring does not work , and I wanted to use this application. :crying:

Is it possible that one day the code also works for devices JB :confused:

Or anyone here is willing to help me get around the permissions of the Orange TV application to work under 4.4.2 (currently code A42 )

Thank you in advance for your answers and good day
