      @ierihon Use the UT Tweak Tool. Or plug a slimport cable to the tv.

        Thanks. I know these app, but is not suitable: DPI not changed 😞

        On 15.04 when i connect SlimPort on external screen icons looks good.

        On 16.04 RC - icons are big, like on phone:

        P.S. With these app i can change icon size, but it also not suitable. On 15.04 stable convergence mode work better.

            Yes, in Desktop mode (Screenshot of 15.04 Stable).

              Just out of curiosity I ordered a HAMA (German company) Miracast stick to play around with my M10FHD

              Good thing: Display is detected
              Bad Thing: On connecting it fails after some time its going through connecting, preparing for display, ready to display and then fails / disconnects on the tablet...

              Using dev114

              Any directions to extend testing or provide more logs/traces?

              FWIW:
              iw phy does NOT report P2P-device for my M10
              HAMA device is HAMA83210-ADFC46

              br

                @doniks Miracast is per definition not possible over "normal" WiFi, thats why most people had only success with the Microsoft Miracast stick. That seems to be still the most compatible one...

                FYI, a miracast presentation. Some of it went over my head, but might have some helpful technical details https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53v11JTf4U8

                  @doniks For the Google Chrome we think it would be possible to start a thread which is as long as this tread here about the Miracast:

                  https://forums.ubports.com/topic/7807/google-chromecast-installation-on-ubuntu-touch

                  For the Miracast, it has been evaluated how it works on Ubuntu Touch.

                  Unfortunately, we already have a Chromecast adapter. It is worth buying a Miracast and sell the Chromecast on ebay?
