Does anyone know a way that may be able to get miracast working? Is it a hardware thing or software? Somehow via wifi direct maybe?Sent from my Nexus 6P #2 You need root and it's a build.prop edit.persist.debug.wfd.enable=1Add this line using root explorer or something then save and reboot. Should work.

I would be interested to know what screen you use and did it work on N5? (I can't get new nexus til next year )#WhiteUIMustDie #6 I just edited my build.prop and now I see the option to enable wireless display. I will test it when I get home from work to see if it actually can see my miracast devices. #7 So while I have the option to enable wireless display now, I still don't see my miracast devices. Looks like I'm going to need to pick up a chromecast stick Edit: there was a power dip at my house today and it restarted my miracast device. After restarting, it works! #8 This works (tested on Rocketfish and Netgear 'cast dongles) but Google apparently did not get the device certified for HDCP. This means any protected stream on your phone will only send the sound. (The video only shows on the phone's screen.) For instance, Netflix won't cast its screen over this connection.I purchased a Chromecast dongle

There it just don't work. Correct, downloaded some miracast aps, they all lead me back to the "cast" app in my moto z play. Can anyone help? Is this cast thing also the miracast? #11 So far, Miracast does not work. Ry Moderator Captain Nov 16, 2010 17,654 215 0 #12 Motorola needs to update the manual and remove Miracast references. #13 for android 7 also does not work #14 This soooo sucks.Has anyone rooted their device and tried modifying the build.prop file?Note: This isn't limited to Moto Zs. Google Pixel, Nexus 6P, and many others running Android 6+ has lost the ability to use Miracast, even though the hardware supports it. On the Nexus 6P, rooting and modifying the build.prop file has enabled the feature.There was even a petition on change.org to get Google to re-enable Miracast support. But was rejected by Google.This really sucks for me as I have several devices that supports Miracast, but I don't have Chromecast, and I don't want to purchase a dozen Chromecasts.

Switch to a phone that has the feature you want. #16 I agree, this is NOT acceptable. I will drop this phone very quickly if this functionality is not restored. If only OnePlus would make CDMA/Verizon phones! Ry Moderator Captain Nov 16, 2010 17,654 215 0 #17 I agree, this is NOT acceptable. I will drop this phone very quickly if this functionality is not restored. If only OnePlus would make CDMA/Verizon phones! It's been months without a resolution. Drop away. #18 Yeah, Miracast hasn't worked since day one (even though it's mentioned in the manual). There's no indication they'll make it work, so if that's a deal breaker, you'll have to look at another phone. #19 I too am

I tried a Netgear model which was pre-certification but couldn’t get the Nexus 4 to attach, although I’m told Netgear will update the NTV300SL to support Miracast by mid-December. I’d expect that the rest of their lineup will be ready around then. "Until we have Miracast sinks everywhere there’s really no way for me to test how this works on the Nexus 4. The Nexus 10 doesn’t include Miracast support, I’m guessing because of memory bandwidth reasons possibly involved in scaling and encoding 2560x1600." #2 As far as I know, only Netgear PTV3000 is pre-certified. Has anyone tried with that? #3 As far as I know, only Netgear PTV3000 is pre-certified. Has anyone tried with that? Correct #4 No Miracast in N7 3G (or plain N7) either: 4.2 on the Nexus 7 has no major surprises: all of the features we mentioned in our review are here, with the exception of Miracast (which is only supported on the Nexus 4 for the time being) and the new camera features (which are present if you install a third-party camera launcher for the front-facing camera). Multiuser support and lock screen widgets, two features that weren't ready in time for our main review, are also here, but we'll be examining them more closely in a separate article." #5 Miracast will be available after the update. Which happen last night. Now all you need is a receiver to do the handshaking. The netgear one would do and after it is on you wireless network you would just stream to it like you would a windows media extender. By 2013, so early next year tvs once they start calling them smart tvs :cyclops: will have this feature built into it. Here we come google tv. wouldnt that be sweet to have a nexus 60 inch tv?? or bigger. n4, n7, n10, ntv, n60 maybe?? i see it happening. #6 Just to be clear to any readers out there, whether or not there will be Miracast support for the Nexus 10 is unknown and anyone stating otherwise is speculating. What is known is that there will be Miracast for the Nexus 4, but no official reports from google have come out for the Nexus 10. #7 The hardware support for wireless display looks to be there from Exynos 5250 thread -"Came across this while researching Exynos 5250. Looks like the hardware is very capable to handle the WQXGA resolution with memory bandwidth and power to spare. This white paper also mentions the support for 1080p 60fps wireless display. So I hope Miracast will be reality as well, just Google needs to step up and utilize the hardware to its full potential. Its an interesting read none the less..Sorry, can not post links yet.. replace _ with .

I also have a Netgear PTV3000 WiDi/Miracast capable adapter. My phone sees the adapter, but there is no mirroring to a display. you must have missed the part where Miracast is a 4.2 feature? #18 you must have missed the part where Miracast is a 4.2 feature? No, just sharing that a WiDi/Miracast capable adapter recognized a Wi-Fi Direct device, a substantiation of Croak's earlier post. #19 I'm now of the belief that the reason we haven't heard something official from Google is because the Nexus 10 has been submitted for Miracast Certification but is still under review. Makes complete sense. They can't say it supports Miracast until it passes Miracast Certification. They don't want to say it doesn't because they think they'll ultimately get the certification. So for now they just stay silent. Whereas the Nexus 4 has already completed Miracast Certification so that one they could officially announce. Perhaps the same reason they've been silent on the Nexus 7, which being that it has a Tegra 3 in it and Nvidia says Tegra 3's have built in support for Miracast and are working towards certification, should mean that theoretically it is capable.

That actually makes a ton of sense. I also read somewhere that Netgear is working on updating the software on its PushTV3000 to support the Nexus devices that have Wifi Direct/Miracast. They hope to have that done by next week, apparently. Last edited: Nov 15, 2012 Similar threads

And then try.www_samsung_com/global/business/semiconductor/minisite/Exynos/data/ Enjoy_the_Ultimate_WQXGA_Solution_with_Exynos_5_Du al_WP.pdfIf the link does not work, google exynos 5 dual white paper." #10 Great, but are you sure this is not for Nexus 4? Look closely at that page and you'll see it is specific to the Nexus 10 #11 Look closely at that page and you'll see it is specific to the Nexus 10 Exactly. It's in the Nexus 10 section. Now, I'm not saying it's definitive proof, but it at least means that their online documentation does imply it'll have it. #12 Look closely at that page and you'll see it is specific to the Nexus 10 Great! Let's hope! #13 I phoned Google Tech Support this morning and asked if the Nexus 10 would have Miracast functionality "out of the box".Tech guy couldn't answer for sure and promised to respond back to me later via email.5 hours later, amazingly (to me anyway), I received an email back from him stating that he got clarification on this question and that, yes, Miracast is good to go "out of the box" on the Nexus 10.I still won't believe it until someone with a unit confirms it. #14 Miracast is basically just a superset of WiFi Direct, doesn't require any additional hardware on the broadcast device...if it can use WiFi Direct, it can do Miracast with the proper software. So I'm not worried about it being on the N10, if the software isn't there just yet, it will come. #15 Yeah, I had called them and asked them too. He had no idea what Miracast was and so I explained it to him. He said he'll have to ask his supervisors and put me on hold. He came back and said "Yeah, you can stream and watch movies on your tv from your tablet and stuff." I said, "Yeah, but specifically Miracast...Does the Nexus 10 support Miracast?" He then said that's more of a hardware question and I'd need to call Asus. Asus huh? Interesting. Are they taking Samsung support calls now. I just ended it there knowing I wasn't going to get anywhere.---------- Post added at 05:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:30 PM ---------- Miracast is basically just a superset of WiFi Direct, doesn't require any additional hardware on the broadcast device...if it can use WiFi Direct, it can do Miracast with the proper software. So I'm not worried about it being on the N10, if the software isn't there just yet, it will come. understanding is that while the capability might be there if Wifi-Direct is there, it still doesn't mean that it will be Miracast certified and thus might not be supported by Android. #16 FWIW, I have a Galaxy Nexus running Jelly Bean 4.1.1, which supports Wi-Fi Direct. I also have a Netgear PTV3000 WiDi/Miracast capable adapter. My phone sees the adapter, but there is no mirroring to a display.

Top Liked Posts There are no posts matching your filters. Add persist.debug.wfd.enable=1 to the bottom of your build.prop file in the system folder, save, and reboot. Enable miracast in the cast settings in the settings app as well with the 3 dot menu. You'll need root to do it. I'm using miracast to cast to my appradio The only other thing I did was turn Wi-Fi on Mirrorlink (usb connection) is different to Miracast (WIFI) so are people giving advice on getting Miracast working when the OP asked about Mirrorlink? I was referring to it as how I use it, sorry. My Pioneer NEX stereo has Mirror Link and I connect to it using a Miracast device, Screen Beam Mini2 plugged into the HDMI port. Or at least, that's how I believe it works, using Mirror Link.And you're right, it can do more than mirroring with the right app. I use App Radio Unchained and have the full functionality of my phone on my NEX. Pretty neat stuff. If you are using Miracast into HDMI then you are not using Mirrorlink. That is done over USB. AppRadio Unchained does not support Mirrorlink---------- Post added at 08:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 PM ---------- My car does have MirrorLink built-in and it works with other phones (i.e. Galaxy S5). But as OP mentioned in his first post, Nexus 6P is not certified MirrorLink device. So to put it simple, is there any way, to make Nexus 6P work with MirrorLink enabled car "stereos"? What car is it? How are you launching it on the S5? Most head units need the phone to have the application also on the phone end to initiate and control the Mirrorlink connectivity.The 6P is not Miracast certified either, but that doesn't mean it doesn't work. Maybe a description of how it does work on other phones for that particular car will help diagnose. Mirrorlink essentially works in a similar way to Chromecast without the need for the internet connection. It still needs a client at the phone end to work.
