Allshare Cast Dongle

@ BleedingPurist
Have just got mine today, its really amazing, worked fine and i dont feel much lag while watching movies or on my presentations, dont think will use it for gaming.
Noticed something wanted to share with all, the video refused to work 1st though am connected, but whenever i try to play a clip or a movie it got disconnected, then i realized its due to my Bluetooth headset, you have to disconnect the Bluetooth headset 1st then it will work perfectly.
BTW i have used it on projector with HDMI port and its working perfect.

For anyone doing presentations this device is a must

Thank you bleedingpurist, I got that dongle all cause of your review

You're welcome and glad you are enjoying it!
 
O.o I don't get this thread for the dongle or that DLNA doesn't work... ? I've used Allshare with my PS3 and xbox360 without any extras. My dad's Blu Ray player has DLNA so it works without anything extra too.

My PS3 does a better job than my 360, because it shows the content on screen rather than on my Note. (which is good because it makes the PS3 slightly less of a paper weight) Both though have it's glitches which makes me resort to my MHL cable in which makes me die inside a little because of the damn cables...

Then consider the dongle. That is what it is. ... wireless MHL. It is not DLNA. I have devices all over the place running DLNA. I only have one device, the dongle, that can mirror my Note II display. Mirror.... not stream audio and video files via DLNA.
 
i get lag on 4g / wifi voice doesnt match lips.... i have 2 note 2s and one performs a little better then the other.
its a cool device but dont pay $99 its not worth that no way. i got 50% off and can barely keep it.

also is there a way to change resolution as well? i cant find a way which is annoying!

I bought a non branded otg adapter and a Samsung s2 MHL HDMI adapter and the otg is great. It works with memory sticks; keyboard and mouse; my digital camera... but I could not get the hdmi adapter to do anything. Does anyone know if it should work?

I have N7000 and its MHL adapter works.
Can you specify please more about how the digital camera works?
