[Q] Allcast Share Dongle Issue with LG TV - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there, sorry to make my first post a question but I've searched everywhere and can't find any info on this.
The problem I'm having is that my phone won't connect to the dongle when the dongle is connected to my LG 32LG7000 TV.
The dongle connects to the TV with no problems and the instructions appear, but when I connect the phone the normal connection screen appears and flashes blue 3 times before dropping the connection to the phone.
The dongle works fine with every other TV I've tried it with so I don't think it has a problem, it just doesn't like this telly!
Has anyone experienced something similar? I'm thinking it's maybe a HDMI / DRM thing....
Many thanks.

[Q] has anyone tried using a USB Bluetooth adaptor?

Considering the issue with Bluetooth audio headsets while streaming audio/video, has anyone tried hooking up a bluetooth USB dongle to their prime? I'm wondering if android would natively support that type of device hook up. I don't own the dock or USB attachment to test it out.
I was just wondering the same thing.
I have tried it.
I tried 2 Bluetooth dongles and none of them worked. The dongle light comes on, blinks but there is no way on the prime to use it.
You would need to code an android compatible driver.
Is this difficult? Seems like a nice idea for people who are having trouble for example watching Netflix with bluetooth headphones.

[Q] MHL HDMI Problem

[Q] Question: Wireless Display and Bluetooth simultaneously

Hello,
I have a NEO N003 with Android 4.2.1.
I have to use a Wireless Display and Bluetooth connection at the same time.
But when a activate wireless display in system settings, the system says "Bluetooth will be turned off when you turn on wireless display".
Is there any solution for that?
Thanks and best regards,
Danta.
Hi Danta,
Same problem here, so I'll start following this thread, although not many reactions yet.
Trying to get a Pioneer Appradio running with my non-MHL 4.2.1: HDMI via Wifi, but for controlling my phone from the radio, it'll need BY on as well…
Hope someone will drop in here.

Chromecast Issues

Is it just me or is there a problem with LG G5 (H860) connecting to Chromecast?
I can't get to connect to my 2 chromecast devices on my TV using my new LG G5 (H860) cellphone. Also tried Localcast and YouTube. It still won't connect.
My other devices work alright (Samsung Tab A) connecting to the chromecast device. I've also tried a different chromecast unit and it still won't connect
See screenshots for reference.
Well.. I have a fully working screen casting.
One with the older model Chromecast and one with the new model.
Just used one of them today and earlier this week the other..
Tried to reboot your device and chromecast?
Edit.
I have a H850 model

I have the LG G5 LS992 (Sprint-US variant) and CHromecast works just fine. I tried Youtube, Netflix and Spotify with no problem.
You are not alone in this problem. I too have the LG G5 and have begun noticing connection issues with this specific handset.
I can usually get it to connect without issue and begin the streaming process, then somewhere along the line, the phone disconnects on it's end of things while the media continues playing on my home theater or my TV and I then have zero control over what's playing.
I'll also see intermittent flashes of the cast button on my phone's screen and when I go to connect, it asks for the CC's pin. Problem is, once something's streaming, you can't see the pin, so I have to unplug any and all power to the CC to get it back to working order. I have one in my living room and one in my bedroom and both will disconnect at various times from the phone, but not the wifi network. I know it's the phone because my old HTC One M8 will remain connected, without issue. Our tablets and PCs remain connected as well.
It's only this phone that I'm having trouble with. Even the Google Cast app doesn't find the CCs in the house, just that it knows I have backdrop settings for both.
It's become a major annoyance since we stream most of our entertainment now. I don't know why it's doing it, but I'm hoping someone has an idea. I do, but it may be nothing of value....
In Marshmallow, there's supposedly a setting to allow the wifi to sorta "sleep" to save on battery power until you touch the screen. I'm wondering if the wifi goes to sleep and disconnects from the Chromecast, causing this issue? If that's the case, is there a way to disable that so it doesn't do it? I have to charge the battery or swap it out on a regular basis anyway, so I can't imagine I'm saving much by leaving such a feature activated.

Connecting to TV without Internet

Hi everybody.
Does anybody know if it is possible to connect a v10 to a TV for screen mirroring without an Internet connection? I don't mind using cables but as far as I am aware the USB C port on this phone doesn't support USB c to hmdi.
I have a chromecast (one of the first gen ones) but I don't think it will work without Internet?
Any help would be great.
Thanks
Screen mirroring works without internet so your chromecast should work without problems. It can mirror your phone display.
