How to connect Oneplus two to Samsung Smart TV through Wifi Direct

Hi,

I'm trying to connect my Oneplus twoT to my Samsung smart tv through Wifi Direct. As I know, Wifi direct doesn't need any router and they can be connected directly. This is exactly what I do:

1. I go to Wifi>Advanced options>Wifi direct on my phone

2. I also turn on Wifi direct in samsung tv using Network in main Menu. Then it tries to connect to my Oneplus two and I receive a notification in my phone. Finally, they both shows are connected.

Then I open Source>Screen mirroring on my Samsung tv and try to see my phone's screen but nothing is there !

These are what I did to fix it:

-I installed ES player, opened a video and try to send it to TV's screen using the icon on top-right corner but it warns that try to connect to same network !

-Then I went to Setting>Display>cast and I ticked Enable Wireless, but still there is nothing there ! (My phone is still connected to TV through wifi direct)

-I also opened the list of Wifi networks, and tried to connect to Samsung tv there, too (while I'm still connected to samsung tv through wifi direct) but it asked for password which I dont have it !

Would you pls let me know how to solve this issue ?!

thank you.

Hi< just reading your question, wouldn't source > screen mirroring on your TV mean that you want to show what's on the TV screen to somewhere else?

What are you trying to achieve, see the TV picture on the mobile or see the mobile picture on the TV?

Haven't got the manual but if you want to see the picture from the mobile wouldn't the source for the TV be from the WiFi connection?

1. WiFi > On

2. Oneplus> Wifi-Direct> Add device

3. Samsung TV> Network> ? Setting

4. Oneplus> Display> Cast> Enable*

You must be right next to the TV as range is poor

5. Samsung TV> remote accept connection

6. Verify screen mirroring from Oneplus to Samsung TV is working.

7. Open photos or video from Oneplus and view on Samsung TV

How it works: Samsung TV can either create or accept WiFi hotspot. Make sure you cast from phone to TV.
