G+_Steve LeMoine Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Samsung's S6 does not have the ability to stream/transfer files/videos to my PS3... what the heck... am I missing something here? I was able to stream using the S3 and S4... why the step backwards? If I knew this little detail beforehand I may not have updated phones. Are there any jerry rig fixes that anyone out there know of?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jason Davis Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Did you try quick connect should be in the notification drop down. ?well it didn't work for me. How were you doing it before with other phone and what did you use on ps3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Leon Carr Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Hey Jason I tried Quick Connects without success. .. phones not recognize (pickup on) the PS3. With the S3 and S4 there was an option called "Nearby Devices" ...when activated my Playstation recognized the phones after I scanned for "Media Servers" (phones and Playstation have to be on same network ) The S6 does not have the "Nearby Devices " option (not even under "Quick Connect "... thaaaat suuuuucks.

G+_Jason Davis Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Seems they removed dlna from the phone. You'll need a dlna app now. All in the name of removing bloat ware. However miracast to a fire stick does work with the quick connect. Wish they realized that dlna isn't bloat but the 40 att apps are bloat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Leon Carr Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Not the best move on Samsung's part... wonder if they even work-shopped the decision on apps to keep/drop with a focus group or did they just throw darts... most (90%) of the their standard apps are utterly useless... oh well, thanks for the heads up about a dlna app... off to the Play Store... cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jason Davis Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Well I beta test for them so I've logged it as an issue doubt it will go anywhere though. Good luck streaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
