[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gelhack:
Works for about a minute and then stops

Stock Nexus 5 running Lollipop. Activated casting on the Fire Stick, and then on the N5. It seems like I had to get off of the cast screen on the N5 before it would start casting. I simply went back to the home screen. Tried to cast a you tube video which worked for a minute or so but then the TV screen went blank. Eventually the Fire Stick said the connection was dropped.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WisdomWolf:
From what I've seen, it looks as though Google silently dropped Miracast support in Lollipop. The option to cast your screen from the OS appears to only work with the chromecast protocol now. They also broke car mode... Again. ?

I have it sort of working with Moto X KitKat - I can mirror the phone, but if I try to stream a Google Play movie it stutters and hangs. I could be my wifi signal - I have not tried it elsewhere in the house, but that is my next step.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steeltkb:
I have the same symptoms - my LG G2 running Cyanogenmod 11 (4.4.4) can usually mirror fine to my Fire TV Stick, but sometimes it can't connect - a power cycle on the Fire Stick makes it work again.

However, my Windows 8.1 Pro x64 Surface Pro (1) can't establish a connection. After pressing the Add Wireless Display button, the Fire Stick is detected as a "Cell Phone." (That's probably indicative of the problem?) Then, attempting to connect to the FTVS results in the stick saying "a connection will start soon to "MYSURFACEPRO" for a few seconds, then the Fire TV Stick dumps back out to the Settings menu. Windows waits for a minute or so and eventually gives an error message.

I ran Windows Update and rebooted, but had same non-result.

I don't think Windows is detecting the Fire TV Stick as a "Wireless Display", so maybe that's why the FTVS is aborting the connection - Windows is negotiating wrong????

Miracast is such a bull**** standard. How can they certify devicess when they all have different handshake procedures.

The behavior has changed

Sadly it is still not working with Windows 8.1 or Windows RT (multiple devices). It shows up as a device that's able to be used for projection but on Windows 8.1 it just spins and never succeeds in connecting.

The Fire TV Stick shows up in Devices as a Projector (never got to that point before). From a modern app where media is playing, and Enable Display Mirroring is set for the Fire TV Stick, Windows 8.1 attempts to connect and fails with a Can't Connect error.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] realaxed:
Guys,

This appears to the a fire tv stick issue and not a windows issue. I know how much everyone loves to hate MS sometimes, but I think Amazon did some shady marketing. When the device was first advertised they said it supported miracast, but didn't specify that meant miracast only on some devices.

Here's a thread on Amazon's forums about the issue:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/forums/ref=cs_hc_g_pl?ie=UTF8&forumID=Fx1SKFFP8U1B6N5&cdThread=Tx38LM5485YSV8L&cdPage=1&cdMsgId=MxTNXFXL1UECTC

Sucks too because I gave my dad my chromecast when I bought the Fire TV Stick because I assumed I could use miracast from windows 8.1 devices.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] porkenhimer:
I have an alternative method that actually works on all iOS, android and windows devices that I have tried it on. Install MirrorOP Receiver on your fire TV, install MirrorOP sender on all the devices you want to mirror. Open MirrorOP Receiver on your fire TV and the rest is easy to figure out by reading the instructions.

While on the most recent Rick's Rom, I tried to mirror my galaxy S5 to my Amazon fire TV stick. It would continue to fail and never go through. Due to a broken camera, I had to get a new S5 through insurance that came with stock NCG but then I updated to NE9. On a whim I tried screen mirroring again, and this time it worked. I ended up reflashing the latest Rick's Rom and again it would not work. Does anyone have any idea what causes this? And can I keep Rick's Rom and just flash the NE9 modem (downgrade) and see if that works or will that cause any problems? Thanks.

HTC One M8 running CM 12.1 nightly 31-05-2015, nothing. Enable wireless display on the phone to see the Fire TV, going to it from Fire TV Mirror option on long press of remote home button doesn't work and neither does getting the phone itself to start the mirroring and accepting the request on the Fire TV. Rubbish. Really annoying for a feature so heavily touted.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheFixItMan:
add/amend this line to your build.prop (requires root) if you cant enable wfd from the cast screen menu by clicking on the 3 dots

persist.debug.wfd.enable=1

Restart your phone

Then enable wfd from the cast screen 3 dots settings that now shows

Turn on wifi and your fire stick will be listed once you enable it from the fire stick display options

However I found I did crash the firestick a few times whilst it was miroring so I dont think its the best - I have another media streamer but I havent tested it since lollipop so I cant say if its the stick or lollipop

Rom doesn't run stable witout install again TWRP

I will give you my experience with AOSB rom: If you REINSTALL the rom it doesn’t run. You must install again TWRP before install the rom. If you don’t make it the rom is very unestable and crash soon.

I recently installed radio rom 1.35.00.11 (main rom 1.34.502.1) and ever since the messaging program will not start. At first I thought it was a problem with the soft key but I un and re assigned it several times, several soft resets, attempted to start the messaging program from programs list and browsing to the actual executable and nothing. No error message, no process started ( monitering with a process manager) but everything else works fine. Ive tryed to send my phone texts to see if it would automaticly start up but still nothing. Any ideas before I hard reset?

Hi everybody. I'm running a stock Nexus 4, rooted, with clockwork recovery. I've received all previous OTAs with very little problem. I didn't even bother re-installing 'su' after the last one. Everything's worked great. Last night I got notified about the Lollipop OTA. I click "download", after which it tells me "Insufficient space available to download". This is strange, as I have ample space. I'll show you:

As you can see I have ample space on my sd card. This is where I'd expect the update to go.

I've tried going in to the system settings and wiping the cache. I click the thing, it says that it gets done, but when I check 'df' as above, the /cache partition still looks the same.

The question is now: where don't I have enough space to download the OTA?

Second question: what do I do about it?

I've scoured the internet for answers, but I've found nothing.

There's very little difference in the cache partition, but now at least I could download.

I had the same problem. Also my phone started bugging out (freezes for several seconds, apps crashing). :confused:

I don't know exactly how I fixed it, but I connected the phone to my PC via USB to download and delete some older pictures and clean my downloads folder.

Before that I had roughly 3GB free, after that I had almost 4 GB free.

I rebooted my Nexus and after that the OTA download did automatically start. IT took more than 1 hour to download, but the update went through and Android 5 now works like a charm.

Flashing the new image worked. The down side, of course, was that I lost everything I had on the phone. All my settings, everything. It was perhaps to be expected, but it's still no less annoying =(

I would have assumed that applications that do make backups would have done so on the sd card (internal storage) rather than on something that is wiped like this.
