How to connect a Samsung phone to a Xiaomi Redmi TV via AllShare: all ways

If you’re trying to stream a Samsung Galaxy screen on a Xiaomi Redmi TV but are experiencing compatibility bugs, this article will help you get a nuanced nuance. AllShare technology (renamed Smart View in new Samsung models) was originally developed for the Samsung ecosystem, but with some tricks it can be made to work with Xiaomi TVs, too. The problem is that the wireless broadcast protocols of the brands are different: Samsung uses Miracast with proprietary extensions, and Xiaomi is the standard Miracast or its own Mire.

In this guide, we’ll look at not only classic AllShare/Smart View connectivity, but also alternative methods, from Miracast to third-party apps like ApowerMirror or Google Home. We’ll focus on common bugs, such as when the TV doesn’t detect the phone or the broadcast is interrupted after 10 seconds. You’ll learn what settings you need to change on both devices to consistently transmit the image without lags.

Important: If you have a Xiaomi Redmi TV older than 2020 (Redmi TV 70, Redmi TV MAX 98, etc.), some features may be missing due to outdated firmware, in which case you will need to update the TV software or use an HDMI-WiFi adapter.

What is AllShare and why it doesn’t work with Xiaomi Redmi TV

AllShare technology (later renamed Smart View) is Samsung’s proprietary protocol for wirelessly streaming media between the brand’s devices, based on the DLNA (for files) and Miracast (for screen duplication) standard, but with additional proprietary extensions, which are often the reason for incompatibility with other TVs, including Xiaomi.

The main reasons why AllShare may not work with Redmi TV are:

• 🔄 Miracast: Samsung uses a modified version of the protocol, and Xiaomi – the standard version.
• 🔒 Manufacturer restrictions: Xiaomi blocks connections from devices not certified in their ecosystem.
• 📱 Outdated software: On Redmi TVs TV 2019-2020 may not support new versions of Miracast.
• 📶 Network conflict: If the phone and TV are connected to different Wi-Fi networks (even with the same name), broadcasting is not possible.

Interesting fact: in some models of Xiaomi Redmi TV (for example, Redmi Smart TV X55), the Miracast function is hidden in the engineering menu and requires activation through service software.

⚠️ Note: If your Samsung Galaxy is running Android 12+, And the Xiaomi TV is on MIUI TV After 2021, the probability of successful connection through AllShare is less than 30%, in which case we recommend immediately switching to methods using third-party applications.

Preparation of devices before connection

Before trying to connect your phone and TV, you need to follow several mandatory steps on both devices, and skipping either of them can lead to errors such as “Unconnected” or “Device is not supported.”

On the Samsung phone:

1. Update your firmware to the latest version (check in Settings → Software Update).
2. Activate Wi-Fi and Bluetooth (even if you use a cable).
3. Enable Smart View (formerly AllShare) in the Quick Settings Panel or through Settings → Connections → Smart View.
4. Turn off Power Saving Mode and Battery Optimization for the Smart View app.

On the Xiaomi Redmi TV:

• 📺 Update the software through Settings → On TV. → Updating the system.
• 🔍 Enable Miracast in Settings → Network and connectivity → Wireless broadcasting (in some models, the path may differ).
• 🔄 Restart the TV (to reset the network connection cache).
• 📶 Connect your TV and phone to the same Wi-Fi network (preferably 5GHz for stability).
