Hi I knw that the wifi disconnects when u use the screen mirroring , but at the same time I also have a note 2 which has the tool called all sharecast but when I use that the wifi still works along with the screen mirroring any solution to make this work on our XZ?
I just tested this feature on teh Xperia Ion and TX both stay connected to the wifi during the screen mirroring so you stream data from youtube on your phone via wifi and same time mirror it to the screen , any alternate way to achieve this on Z? or a third party app ?
Yes I am having this problem on my tablet z too. On my note 2 it can connect on both lets hope its a software bug and not a hardware limitation.
Guys I got a PTV3000 which allows for widi & miracast wireless display mirroring. I had an Xperia Z which mirrored perfectly but my new HTC one dont ;(. I dont want to spend money on another dongle e.g. HTC Media Link. As the device has the capability. But I have not being able to connect it. 2 questions, will All Share App apk on Samsung work on the One to force it to display? or even an apk of the Mirror link app from Sony. There must be a way to connect it via an apk or something? any help would be welcome.
Google and see if you can get the APK's, install them (Hopefully they will instal) and try it mate, thats all you can really do. . .
All Share is from samsung and will not install on HTC, at least I didn't managed to install it on nexus.
I don't know for mirroring but i've used skifta for streaming media files to tv.
The phone does support Miracast for sure but you just need a app to use it.
I was able to view photos on my LG TV via the Sense gallery but videos would not work, kept saying cannot play back media.
A mirroing app like the Xerpia Z would be cool.
giotecno if you try and install it to your One and it works please share it.
[I sold the Xperia z and didn't extract the apk's so I am stuck. not sure where I am gonna find a program that will enable the miracast to mirror via wireless. what I don't understand is Miracast is going to be a whole standard why limit the phone so it just connects via your own proprietary media link dongle. Mind you with JB 4.2.2 update we might just get the wireless display option to use miracast.

So you can play games on the TV too?
How did you switch on the mirror mode?
After loading the latest firmware on my netgear PTV3000. I rebooted the phone and one it came on went to media out in settings and the device appeared in the list and then just selected it and the mirroring started in a few seconds. works great with videos games etc. there is avery tiny lag but its more than acceptable.

Nekromantik try this, make sure your TV is ready for MIracast and is looking for the device. Turn off wifi on phone and then fully power off your HTC Onc and switch back on and then go to Media Output this will enable your Wifi on the phone and hopefully will see the device.

Hey all. I have a question about dualshock 3 wireless connection with my Xperia Z1. Until i've updated my Z1 up to android 4.3 it works great, but it doesn't at this moment. I've tried to wipe all data on my phone and reflash new FW, but it still doesn't works.
My Z1 was italian. I've flashed it to russian 290 via flashtool. Then wiped it and reflashed Central Eu 290. But it still can't connect via bluetooth.
XZ1 tells me to disconnect cable from it, so it will connect wirelessly. But it doesn't
Would be great if you can assist me to solve this problem. Thanks!

Not sure if you have or not but try the SixAxiscontroller app on the play store, I've never tried the native controller app but i know that the sixaxis one works really well, it allows you to map controls to the screen for games that don't support pads.
Give it a whirl or at the very least the compatibility app.

Yep you do, sorry m8, i've never tried it with the native app.
Hello everyone. Week ago I've became a happy user of Xperia Z1, and one of first things, that I've tested is a screen mirroring, as i have a TV which supports miracast and has an option to Enable\Disable DRM support. It worked flawlessly. Yes, there was a lag up to 500ms, but for me that's OK. Then i've updated firmware to 4.4.2 and lost ability to stream phone's screen on TV. Changed many firmwares, including customs, but no luck. Connection dialog opens both on TV and Z1, but terminates automatically with message, that TV does not support HDCP. I can stream audio\video\photo via WiFi, but not phone's screen. As i understand, HDCP is a protection, wich allows to run DRM-encrypted media. And my TV should be able (and surely was able) to stream it. Just tested same feature on Xperia C with my TV, it works. Have anyone seen such problem, or knows a way to disable HDCP on Z1?
I imagine you have unlocked your bootloader?
I am not 100% sure but you said the connection depends on DRM keys; you lose these when you unlock the bootloader.

Nice one, but miss. My bootloader never changed, as i used only firmwares, not kernels. And first mirroring didn't asked for keys or something, only permitting dialog on TV screen.

MHL fork for me too, but it's really more comfortable when there's only phone in your hands and picture is on big screen.

True. I will be glad if someone know how to fix it so I will know more about it and maybe I will test ti too to understand if that working on UB.

I had the same issue before, on my SAMSUNG SMART TV with my XPERIA Z1, the solution, I just updated the TV's firmware and there you go, screen mirroring worked!
I'm on STOCK KK .757 by the way.

Prefer the DLNA and the Throw system or use a MHL to HDMI cable
The HDCP is just painfull and broken.

Yes, tried that too. My Phillips TV found and installed update, Samsung TV found nothing. But nothing changed, Phillips shows in connections menu, Samsung not (i think Samsung TV simply does not supports miracast)
Just found pack of patches for other android phones, which fixes screen mirroring. It's said, that screen mirroring stops working after rooting, and patch disables HDCP completely. There's a patch for Snapdragon 800, which i just applied, and got a confirmation, that it's working, but with opposite effect- screen mirroring service stops with error. So all we need now is to change patch (file /system/vendor/lib/libwfdsm.so) for xperia (and maybe some others) devices. Or it's pretty possible that screen mirroring will work if we just replace current libwfdsm.so with an older version, which surely works. I'm ready to run experiments on my Z1, just need that file from older firmware.
any update from this issue? I got the same probably after 4.4.4 update.
I have a Z1 and am having the same HDCP issue with a brand new Microsoft Miracast dongle.
According to the Sony support forum, Sony has updated to the "Latest" version of the HDCP standard and all these other devices are on an old version.
Sony is paranoid that we are all going to steel their content. Apparently they don't realize that this lack of compatibility only hurts hones customers,
the thieves already know how to get around these systems.
If anyone has older software I would love to try the option above.
I hate having to open the USB port every time I get into my car, I just want to cast the screen to my AppRadio. Sony should have made the magnetic charge port also support magnetic MHL out.
Apparently 5.0 will solve this but for now we are all stuck on 4.4.4 or older.
