Android Screen Casting is Now Available
The recently released update finally allows you to add some extra inches to the size of your screen, in case you've got a Chromecast, of course. From now on you can cast all your mobile activities (including audio stream) to a larger screen. Unfortunately, the option is currently available to a limited number of devices on the list below, but the update is expected to roll out to other devices pretty soon. So, here they are:
- Nexus 4, Nexus 5, Nexus 7 (2013), Nexus 10
- Samsung Galaxy S4, Samsung Galaxy S5, Samsung Galaxy Note 3, Samsung Galaxy Note 10 (2014)
- HTC One M7
- LG G Pro2, LG G2, LG G3
Not that many, as you see, but folks at xda-developers forums have found the way to extend the list a little bit, so you may also put Moto X there. To make screen casting work on the Motorola handset one should downgrade Google Play Services to its factory version. This will break a whole load of Google apps, but the casting option will become available. So if you've got a Moto X but can't wait for the official release of the update, you are welcome to give it a shot.
