Watching still images from phone on Chromecast - Google Chromecast

Just curious: how do you watch your pictures on your Android smartphone on the CC?

I think Koush is working on that. Should be a little bit before he is allowed to release it.

I use VScreens for that right now, but a solution that works to the Chromecast will be nice to have!

Does amazon instant videos work with root.

Well can you still watch instant videos with the new root method?

i'd really like to know the answer to this before I go out and pick one up. Thanks for your help.
Just launched a movie from my Amazon library and works fine. Also tested a few trailors, and they work fine also. I have done:
1) Rooted
2) Installed Google Play
3) Removed my ads (unofficially)
Good to know. I don't have prime so I couldn't test out the "free" videos. I was waiting for my mini hdmi cable to arrive before I tested the premium videos with my $5 credit.
Cool thanks

4X HD - Double ard bstard!

My missus dropped her fone getting out the car without realising under the car. Then when getting back in and driving off the fone got run over by the car and pinged off into the middle of the road!!
The screen is cracked badly so needs sorting on insurance but the fone itself works fine and the only cosmetic damage is the screen!!

I take at least 20 photos and few videos per day with my mobile. But with this many out of focus photos and dark videos. So no, not much.

See i have an Xperia S and the picture quality is brilliant on it. And I don't think quad core is even necessary really

If you like taking pictures, you should check out lumia 920. It has the best camera of all the phones.

Nubs

So here I have my 304k phone, and seeing the nipples on it, I thought there was some use. However, when I place it on a desk, the speaker gets muffled incredibly and I can barely hear anything out of the speaker. Anybody getting this?

I'm sorry... nipples?
You can't hear anything after placing the phone on your desk because the speaker is on the back of the phone. Flip it around and you'll hear just fine.

The little bumps some models have at the bottom of the phone, on the back near the speaker.

Pretty certain they are so the glass isn't in direct contact w/ the surface so it doesn't get easily scratched and not purpose built for the speaker.

I've seen on many websites that the nipples are for raising the glass so the speaker doesn't get muffled, and I'm pretty sure that when the glass isn't in direct contact speakers should be better.
Now I need to hold my phone when I watch YouTube >.<

Did you also notice how small these nubs are. If the intent was for speaker enhancement, I would think they would have made them bigger. I would consider trying to locate a case with a kickstand if you watch YouTube often.
Ummm, lay the phone on the screen so that the speaker doesn't get covered?
And don't say that will scratch the screen! A case or bumper can easily remedy that! If the back speaker bothers you that much, get the HTC One with the front facing speakers!
Ok guys let it go.
Ok guys as it seems that People are still in middle school I renamed the thread.

Shops only sell cases for popular phones, which is basically the SGS3/4 Note 2, and the iPhone.

What? How is headphones helping you watch a YouTube movie? And what's the point of laying phone screen down if you're using headphones?

You use crystal glass table put your phone screen down, then you plug in headphones and stick it with duck tape to very sensitive stereo mic which is plugged to high quality amp and speakers, lay down under the table and enjoy :silly:
Will the nubs rub off over a period of time if I keep my nexus 4 in a tight case?

I think the nubs are there so the back won't be in direct contact with the surface of anything that may cause a sudden temperature change and break the back glass.
I haven't received my phone yet, so it's just a speculation.

Raising the glass off surfaces will improve the speaker as well I think.

My CC is un-rooted and I just casted a two hour long YouTube video to keep my little sisters entertained. If you still have the issue in the morning, I'll cast some more to see if you're the only one.

Have you tried factory resetting your Chromecast? (may or may not help, but won't cause any damage)
