Screen Mirroring issue with Samsung Smart TV

Wautre — Mon, 18 Nov 2013 12:05:53 GMT

Hello Sony Xperia Users out there,

Is there any one facing compatibility issues to do a screen mirroring of your Xperia with Samsung Smart TV.

I have purchased the Xperia SP two weeks back, not before getting the successful demo with Samsung Smart TV’s in the showroom to check the compatibility. It worked perfect out there. Same was for a weeks’ time, where I enjoyed playing games on my Samsung Smart TV with screen mirroring my Xperia SP.

But this happiness did not last long and now I am facing the screen mirroring issue. Both the devices (smart TV & Smartphone) are detecting each other; I’m also getting the “Screen Mirroring on” message on the Xperia, but just the blank screen on the smart TV with “loading” at the right hand side top of the screen which lasts for around 20 minutes.

I am able to perform the other smart functions like throw, wifi hotspot etc… but the screen mirroring L

Have done factory setting twice for my bot the devices, got both the devises updated, but still the same issue.

I checked with the showroom guys, over there too I am not able to connect to a single Samsung Smart TV now and it is giving the same loading error; but I got connected instantly to the Sony Smart TV’s.

I checked my Samsung Smart TV with S4 of my friend, and it got connected instantly.

All my settings (both of TV & Phone) seem to be perfect. But I am facing this compatibility issue only for screen mirroring.

Why this should happen, and for god’s sake I do not want to connect through MHL. Why should I purchase additional accessory wherein I have already paid for a feature. Also I don’t want that clumsy wire.

It has been only two weeks that I have bought this phone and I am hugely disappointedL.

Can anybody please help as I am exhausted calling up the call center guys (both Samsung and sony)

Same here. Hope it gets fixed with 4.3 or they'll get some nasty complaints over a thing which should be standardised. In theory, in the Display menú, in 4.3, we will have the universal and Standard android screen mirroring.

Same problem with LG smart tv. Get occasional connection but it's very unstable. It looks like Throw turns wifi and bluetooth on, and sp can't handle that.
