LeEco Le2,, screen mirroring not working

Hi friends,
i am not able to connect any smart TV for screen mirroring on my device,
- showing available devices
-after selecting devices,
- suddenly available device disappear from the list .
i am able to connect same smart TV using miromax A117 and Lenovo phat 2 plus.
Same problem here did you find any solution?
Same problem to me
My former cell phone and my Windows 8.1 tablet could connect through miracast to my Samsung smart TV, to a Mirascreen dongle and to a generic WiFi Display dongle (named Lollipop), but my new LeTV Le2 X526 smartphone can't connect to any of them. In another Indian forum, various people complained about the same issue, a reply suggested to install the app EZTalks, but this app don't do miracast, but is a video meeting app !!!

Android Auto in KIA C'eeD + Xiaomi Redmi 4X

Dear all,
I own a fresh Kia C'eed with a fully functioning (LCD display) Head Unit and support both for Android and Apple phones.
I am trying to connect my (relatively new) Xiaomi Redmi 4X to it. Everything else works (e.g. Bluetooth connection), EXCEPT the Android Auto feature.
Specifically, when I connect it via USB cable it briefly shows that it tries to connect and then reverts to charging mode.
Moreover, I see from Google Play that my phone is not compatible with Android Auto, which I think is the main problem.
My phone's specs are:
- Android Version: 7.1.2 N2G47H
- MIUI Version: MIUI Global 9.1 | Stable [9.1.1.0 (NAMMIEI)]
It supports over the air updates (and has done some already) and - based on what I read in the forum - people have made Android Auto work with the Xiaomi Global ROM.
QUESTIONS:
Shouldn't then my phone work ok?
If not, how could I fix this, save for flashing my ROM?
If all else fails, is there some alternative app that mirrors Android phones on a car Head Unit?
Thank you in advance for your time.
Am answering my own query for the record here:
It turns out Xiaomi Redmi 4X _does_ support Android Auto. It was simply not supported in my country. In such a case, simply download the apk from a mirror site (e.g. apkmirror) and install it.
Then all will work well with the car.
In case of connection issues (a) reboot your phone, (b) make sure you have a data connection active (for some maybe needed updates) and (c) replace the USB cable if all else fails.
Then, all works like a charm.
cheers!

As mentioned in my original post, you can e.g. go to: h**ps://***.apkmirror.com, find and download the latest APK for Android Auto and install it. That's all.
I have a problem to establish a USB connection between my KIA Cerato head unit and Xiaomi A1 and A2 phones.
The phones are not recognised, which means that Android Auto is not working on the car's LCD screen.
Bluetooth connection works just fine, so Phone and Music can be played via KIA Entertainment unit.
In the same time Nokia G20 connects seamlessly with Android Auto working properly.
Is there any workaround for Xiaomi phones?

How can i cast/connect to a TV

Hello,
I just bought for my father a Mi Pad 4 Plus .
Unfortunetly it was in chinese/english (coming from gearbest) but my old father managed to install a new rom good
But at last, it's not easy to connect/cast to a TV.
He tried with USB/C => HDMI adaptator without sucess.
I've read that chromecast doesn't work.
It seems that maybe with a dongle with anycast could work or mirroring with a mirroring app on the TV may be ?
He got two TV, one smart and the other not (even if the tv can connect to internet)
Do you have any solution wich work at 100% ?
Thanks !

Reviews say Mi Pad 4 Plus doesn't support video out via usb-C, but casting to a Chromecast should work, I'll test on mine in a few hours when I'm home.
I believe I'm on unofficial global ROM (xiaomi.eu)
I can confirm my Mi Pad 4 Plus can connect to my Chromecast, although it's not optimised, displays a lower resolution on the TV than the one on the device. Casting Youtube/Twitch/VLC/etc works great at good quality
...
wrong post...
Please try this:
Setting - permission - Google Play Services - (look for) Record audio - (choose) Accept.
Now, restart the Mi Pad 4 Plus
Go to app, Home. You can use it to mirror your screen to Chromecast 2 now.
Cheers~

Cast screen to Samsung TV?

Dear all,
I'm happy with my Mi 9T Pro - running MIUI 11 Global - for anything but the cast feature.
I have a Samsung TV and when I had a Samsung S9 I was able to seamlessly cast the screen content to the TV.
With Mi 9t Pro anything I tried failed.
Is there a way to accomplish this specific request? Might a custom ROM add the needed feature - protocol - libraries that enable this?
Thanks!

Playstore - Video and TV cast /Samsung TV
Both smartphone and tv must be on the same 2.4 GHz wifi network (not 5GHz). Enable Bluetooth.
Start your TV.
Mi 9T Pro: Settings
> Connection & sharing
> Cast
> Enable Cast
Be patient the first time. Repeat the procedure a few times.

This is correct when you use a WiFi connection for your TV.
When you use an UTP connection for your TV to for example your router it does not matter what kind of WiFi network you are using.
Both (2,4Ghz of 5Ghz) will then work.
Thanks everybody for your answers.
@hewlett2008, thanks but I didn't explain well my request: I would like to mirror phone's screen to TV, so the application you suggest does not accomplish this task.
@actiyo and @Snah001, I made all possible test but did not manage to make it work.
I tried with TV connected via cable and via wireless, and both times activating the cast feature on the phone didn't make anything happen.
In a random attempt I also manually added TV to the phone via wi-fi direct, and TV did ask me to authorize the connection, but even in that case the cast feature did not work.
I find it weird that this feature is listed as one of MIUI 11's improvements and it just does not work with a large selling TV producer like Samsung.
Any help will be appreciated.
Double post.
Weird. I can cast to my KU6400 Samsung.
I think mine is a quite recent model: MU6400, 49"; I purchased it a couple of years ago.
I used to mirror my phone to quickly show some news articles or funny Whatsapp messages to my family, and I miss this feature quite bit.
I'm not a total newbie of technology issues, but this problem is baffling to me.
I guess I will end purchasing a Amazon Firestick or something similar just to use this feature, but would try anything before because the TV is hanging on a wall and any device connected to HDMI would not be nice to see.
Cast problems
I have a Xiaomi mi9t pro . I have 2 tv . One a LG newer one and one Samsung "old" one . Both smart TV . After update from miui 10 to miui 11 cast won't work on the Samsung TV from the app like YouTube. Tried everything . No matter what I selected 2,4 ghz or 5 ghz network . With screen mirroring is working , but I find this kind of useless because I don't like how I see the movies in frames . Anyone with some ideas ?

Well, screen mirroring is exactly what I'd like to use.
Could you please tell me what are the exact steps you perform (on both phone and TV) to activate screen mirroring?
Thanks in advance!

Screen Cast to Xiaomi Mi Smart 4S TV?

Hi there,
I have a problem which is wireless connection to my new TV from Xiaomi. It is ab Xiaomi Mi Smart 4S. It is said that it supports Chromecast Built-in, but when I look at my P30Pro I can't find the TV in my list for wireless connection.
The TV from my neighbour appears by the way
Do I have to turn something on on my TV or aren't they cmpatible?
Is there any way of screen mirroring to this TV?
It is an Android TV with Android 9 btw.
Thanks for replies in advance!
Hi Eric
I have this problem too
If you found a resolve please tell me
Sorry, but it seems the P30Pro needs the Option of Wifi-Direct on the TV which the Xiaomi TV doesn't have... and my new Philips not too
Really sad, that Huawei made the feature depend on such a rare feature on a TV.
Hello
I'm a newbie here, but maybe I could help
I had a symilar problem with my Xiaomi Mi Box S.
The solutions was Google Home app.
Regards
