Chromecast Screen Mirroring on Sony Xperia Z2 - Google Chromecast

Hey guys,
As you all know with the 1.7 Version of the chromecast app google enabled screen mirroring on selected devices. Since a Nexus 5 is a selected device i decided to try to make my Sony Xperia Z2 a Nexus 5
I changed the following original Sony build.prop settings from:
Code:
ro.build.product=D6503
ro.product.brand=Sony
ro.product.name=D6503
ro.product.device=D6503
to:
Code:
ro.build.product=hammerhead
ro.product.brand=google
ro.product.name=hammerhead
ro.product.device=hammerhead
I took the build.prop settings from a original Nexus 5 build.prop file.
Tested and working...it's great !
I guess you can easily adapt this to any other phone, so just a quick hack.

Just a quick word of warning here, please be very mindful when changing build.prop
Anything that tries to detect your device make/model for downloading/installing device-specific components (like recovery) will get the wrong make/model. This means if you're not careful you could end up "updating" to a rom/recovery/ota for a different device, likely resulting in some manner of brick.

nexus 7 2012 comes with tegra 3 which does not have hardware support for screen mirroring.

Change your build.prop back to normal and try r3pwn's enabler.

[MOD] Drivelink (Mirrorlink) Full Mirroring

j0ep0 and I are currently working to get the mirroring that we were promised working with Drivelink and the Galaxy S III. Currently we have mirroring working successfully but there are a few bugs with the Drivelink app getting wiped and restarted. Here is a list of everything so far:
Full Mirroring without the drive link app resurfacing - Working (random restarts due to memory cleanup in android)
Work with Any Launcher - Currently Nova and Apex work
Reassigning the Home button -
Bypassing the two warning Messages -
Compatibility with Non-touchwiz Roms-
Compatibility with Other Devices -
Dim or turn off Phone screen when mirroring-
Automatically go into launcher (minimizing drivelink) -
Currently the setup we have is working for the following devices:
GSM Galaxy S III
CDMA Galaxy S III (No Data)
If it is working on your device please post, or PM me with the Following:
Carrier
Phone Model
Any Bugs
Rom/Kernel (If custom)
Installation Instructions:
Code:
Non-root:
Go into Settings and Enable "Install from Unknown sources"
Install the APK and run it.
Plug into your head unit and pray.
This method has worked for some (including myself) and not for others.
It will give you the standard Drivelink app and
no custom code by us, you need root for that.
Rooted users:
Download the TMServer zip to your Phone
Reboot into recovery and install (Like a ROM)
No need to wipe anything, you're just replacing
a system APK which is why you need root.
Install the Drivelink APK after enabling Unknown sources.
Run the Drivelink app and plug your phone into the head unit,
After accepting prompts you should see the drive link app.
There are several ways to get to your stock home screen but the easiest for me is to hold your home button down the bring up task manager, Click on another open app, when it opens hit the home button and viola, you're at your home screen. We are trying to find a way to bypass this but drivelink puts the phone into car mode and that disables the home button. Car mode is required to get the audio to route correctly to the head unit.
Here are the Links:
TM Server- Must be flashed in a custom recovery:
TMServer
Drivelink- Remove all versions, allow unknown sources and install this apk:
DriveLink
Both j0ep0 and myself have full time jobs and families so we are working very hard to get this working on our own time. So please be patient. We will get this working fully!
Nice description write up by Olywa123, Thanks
What is it
Drivelink is Samsung's application used to facilitate ‘Mirrorlink’ connectivity with supported car headunits. Currently their are several aftermarket car stereos by Sony, Alpine, and JVC that support this technology. The majority of users here have the Sony XAV-601BT headunit but it is believed the protocol for connection is the same for each. This standard is known as Mirrorlink (formerly Terminal Mode) and uses the VNC RFB3.8 protocol allowing for two-way communication between the smartphone and headunit over a usb connection for both display duplication and key-inputs and uses Bluetooth A2DP for Audio.
Videos
The following videos best provide a summary of this technology
Mirrorlink Overview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWNpK...eature=related
Example of MirrorLink on XAV-601BT: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsT1l8bLOfU (shows Nokia and Samsung phone support)
Example of Drivelink App: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHVmogapY9U
Why The Drive Link App needs Modification
Although Samsung have released the Drivelink application, this is not only very limited but also compatible only with the Galaxy SIII currently. It provides a ‘dashboard’ interface allowing for the use of only stock Music, Phone and Navigation (limited to Google maps) functionality. You cannot get back to your phones home screen or run any other apps while Drivelink is running/mirrored on the headunit and killing Drivelink kills the interface meaning the stereo no longer sees and mirrors the phones display. This appears to be a restriction coded into the Drivelink software as the video above shows that the Nokia interface allows for full phone control in addition to just the Nokia released Mirrorlink app on Symbian (Car Mode).

Question... do you have to flash tmserver if you are using a rooted touchwiz rom?
Sent from my DROID3 using Tapatalk 2
If you use Touchwiz based Rom, first check in /system/tmserverapp.apk exists. If it is there, just install the DriveLink apk. If it's not, install this TMServer: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?3926b2kuewyn84i.
(the one in OP is a test version).
So can I use Sony XAV601BT with a Verizon running CM10 nightly on 4.1.2
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Drive Link works on CM10, but the screen mirroring app doesn't.
3 weeks or so and I should have my Verizon Note 2 and will be back in this for some testing. assuming it doesnt just work right off.
it works! thanks!
but if I run Temple Run game, the USB link will fail.
I guess the memory killer may kill the tm server that cause USB link fail.
BTW,
I remember the USB link requires the CDC/NCM support in kernel or the mirrorlink cannot be activated, correct?

You're answering your own question, VZW is Samung based and has the Touchwiz framework. You can always switch launcher to Trebuchet or Nova to get a less "Touchwiz" sensation.

Strange... there must be something with that rom. I could never get my VZ S3 to work, but i never tried a jellybean rom.
read the sony thread. seems the device authentication is by key. i'm assuming the mysterious device identifier component is in that key. but i'm also assuming that the key code is closed on both the client and server. but just wondering if you've looked at that yet, j0e0p? if i recall you don't even have the deck?

To do a little braindump, I've checked in /system/security/security/cacerts but can't find much differences between the several ROMs. In the code of the Drive Link app there are some checks in build.prop to identify the device but if that's really restricted the app shouldn't work on the Verizon as that device id isn't in the code. Finally I've found some references to the bootloader/kernel. That might be the cause.
I don't have the deck, the keying part isn't published in the source code from Sony and mirrorlink doesn't seem to be working on the latest XXDLJ4 (rooted) for i9300 which I'm running as my daily driver. Maybe someone could confirm that?

Nook has Anroid 2.1 and a nook specific kernel - this will be the problem.
I am unable to edit the tiles, It takes me to the home screen whenever I try to edit it, I am using a Moto X Play with an updated android version and an updated WP Launcher application.

How do I enable tablet apps on my N6 from Google Play?

Scrolls just came out on Android tablets and Hearthstone is due out later this month but again only on tablets.
How do I spoof the play store into thinking I'm running a tablet? Is it as simple as editing the build.prop to be an HTC Nexus 9?
I used to be able to do this with xposed, but we all know that's not available on the Nexus 6 yet.
Thanks!
Yes. Just changed the build prop to mimmick the device you want. You might also need to change the DPI to get the app to play well on your phone..

I adjusted the DPI from 580 to 480.
I changed the manufacturer from motorola to htc, and model from nexus 6 to nexus 9.
I cleared the play store data and rebooted.
It worked! Thanks again!
Well, it downloaded the app, but unfortunately it hangs on the initial logo display screen. Not sure if it's an android 5.0 issue or what. I adjusted the DPI all the way down to 260, no go.

I think since the nexus is the only android 5.0 phone out, aside from other nexus and international phones, you may have to wait for the developer to update the app to play friendly with 5.0. I would ask a htc nexus user or read reviews in the app store to see if anyone has it working correctly.
It actually works, it was my network at work blocking whatever the app was trying to use internet access for, so it hung instead of giving an error. Once I left work and was on cell phone or my home connection it loaded up just fine! Haven't had a chance to really play yet, but I can!
I am trying to do the same and followed your steps and didn't work. I am running CM 12 ROM however. Do you mind posting the changes you made to Build.prop so I can compare? I changed Manufacturer to HTC and Model to Nexus 9 and DPI to 480 and no-go. Play Store still sees it as not compatible.

Cyanogen Mod and screen casting

This may be a known issue, but up until yesterday I thought it was only me.
Screen casting on any cyanogen ROM ends immediately after connection. Seems to happen regardless of cm ROM (cm12, cm11, resurrection, liquid) or device (moto x, bionic, kindle fire).
Is there a workaround?

Thank you! This has been driving me nuts the last few days.
I have a Sprint SGS3 (SPH-L710) running CM11 (cm-11-20141008-SNAPSHOT-M11-d2lte).
This one did not work for me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/hardware-hacking/chromecast/experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193
I just got this one to work, but it is very laggy. It take 6 to 7 seconds to refresh the screen each time I switch apps.

I am really surprised that CM11 does not have screen mirroring to ChromeCast already built in.
I suspect is may be hardware related.
Thx...

You don't need it anymore. Google updated chromecast app. Any devices running 4.4.2 should have mirroring enabled by default. I didn't try it on my nook yet, but I think it'll work without this app.
I could only cast for about half a sec. than it would immediately disconnect on both 4.3 and 4.4 PAC-Rom but by doing the above I was able get screen cast to work.

Based on my recent experience, it wasn't working for me on CloudyG3 1.2 (didn't try 2.0 yet - it was connecting and immediately disconnecting, with few tries results into dark screen on Chromecast), however on Darkobas PSD (ParanoidSabreDroid) Lollipop ROM (AOSPA rom) working without any issue and really very fast.

Are you sure you aren't refering to basic cast from App?
I'm talking about Cast Screen, the beta feature which DIRECTLY MIRRORS YOUR HANDSET SCREEN to your chromecast.
You may be confused as there are literally no reports or success stories of CAST SCREEN and not Google Cast.
They are two completely different things we are discussing screen mirroring in this thread.

WiFi calling came to the Nexus 6 with LYZ28E, Android 5.1.1. I have yet to see WiFi calling working on Android M. Does anyone have a link to that? I would like to see someone port LYZ28E to the Nexus 5 though. Hopefully sooner than later as I can't think of any reason why it couldn't be ported by the right person.
Interesting tweaks to the lock screen: updated font weights and styles and also the dialer app shortcut is replaced with voice search. I like that you now have to swipe from the app shortcuts to launch them instead of just swiping to either side; I occasionally would launch the camera or phone app by accident when unlocking before.
Take this: SuperSU 2.49 Beta
Maybe it works, im downloading now.

WiFi calling came to the Nexus 6 with LYZ28E, Android 5.1.1. I have yet to see WiFi calling working on Android M. Does anyone have a link to that? I would like to see someone port LYZ28E to the Nexus 5 though. Hopefully sooner than later as I can't think of any reason why it couldn't be ported by the right person.

A couple people on Reddit with Nexus 6 M preview installed said T-Mobile WiFi calling is working.

Apps I have that are not working:
Waze - Crashes on launch and causes background to turn and stay black until reboot
Uber - Crashes on launch
Evernote - Crashes on launch
Camera seems to crash randomly
Mostly app issues, but not sure when they'll get updated. I'd stay on M, but need Waze and Uber for some travel in upcoming days.
I love the new app tray, I once saw that in a custom rom on a device of a friend and I loved it.
If someone has errors while it should flash the system try to flash it by hand:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
then
Code:
fastboot flash cache cache.img
and continue with that system till the last .img.
Yes you always have to put the folder name in front of the .img (folder name = .img without .img)
after you manually installed those you have to execute "flash-base.sh" NOT FLASH-ALL.CMD OR YOU HAVE TO REDO FLASHING THE .IMG'S!!!
Oh and who wants to record 4k 30fps without flashing anything, THIS APP:
Snap Camera HDR: TRIAL // FULL (1.49€)
-> 4k Recording 30fps (Slightly scaled as the width is the same)
-> 3.4k Recording 30fps (Native Resolution)
-> 1440p Recording 60fps
-> 1080p Recording 120fps
(you can take the trial, just dont press the close button and wait the 10 seconds. I bought it my self cause its really worth it!)

No issues here..... yet. I do like what they are doing with the battery saving. Can't wait to see what else happens!
