Has anyone had issues with screen mirroring from the galaxy s20 ultra to a Vizio TV, after the latest patch update? 

It works on apps in regards of hulu, Netflix, Disney+. Etc. 
Just won't mirror my phone to the TV.

The Screen Mirroring feature has been moved from the Smart View or SmartThings app. This feature can now be found on compatible models under the Quick Connect feature. Steps and how to use this feature can be found here: https://techwelkin.com/quick-connect-samsung

So after being frustrated for an hour I found a solution to this. My LG OLED was not displayed in available devices in smart view after the one ui 3.0 update. Here's what I did -

 

1. Open settings, go to wifi  and open up wifi direct. Make sure your TV supports wifi direct. I assume it would if it supports miracast or screen share.

 

2. Select your TV from available options ( make sure wifi direct is on and discoverable from TV settings but don't initiate connection from TV)

 

When phone connects to TV it automatically starts screen share via smart view.

 

3. The next you start up smart view or even wireless Dex your non Samsung TV should also be listed in available devices. I dont know why is so convoluted to get to this step in first place with new update.

 

Hope it helps at least some folks. Worked for me with an LG smart TV running webOS 5.0

Bring back the ability to cast to other devices, like Chromecast please!! Casting from phone to TV is ok, but you still see parts of the phone and doesn't allow me to actually use my phone during.

Casting to Chromecast is still a feature.

Please describe exactly what is happening and what issues you are having.
