Hey there! If you're looking to mirror your phone or tablet screen to your PC without using Chromecast, I've got you covered. There are a few different methods you can try, so let's dive in!
Method 1: Using Third-Party Software
One popular option is to use third-party software like ApowerMirror or AirDroid. These tools allow you to wirelessly mirror your phone or tablet screen to your PC. Simply download and install the software on both your phone/tablet and PC, connect them to the same Wi-Fi network, and follow the on-screen instructions to establish a connection. Once connected, you'll be able to see your phone or tablet screen on your PC and control it using your mouse and keyboard.
Method 2: Using USB Debugging
If you're comfortable with a slightly more technical approach, you can use USB debugging to mirror your phone or tablet screen to your PC. First, make sure you have the necessary USB drivers installed on your PC. Then, enable USB debugging on your phone or tablet by going to the Developer Options in your device's settings. Connect your phone or tablet to your PC using a USB cable, and open a command prompt or terminal window on your PC. Enter the command "adb devices" to make sure your device is recognized. Finally, enter the command "adb shell screenrecord --output-format=h264 - | ffplay -" to start the screen mirroring. You should now see your phone or tablet screen on your PC.
Method 3: Using Mirroring Apps
Another option is to use mirroring apps like TeamViewer or Vysor. These apps allow you to mirror your phone or tablet screen to your PC over a USB connection. Simply download and install the app on both your phone/tablet and PC, connect them using a USB cable, and follow the on-screen instructions to establish a connection. Once connected, you'll be able to see and control your phone or tablet screen on your PC.
Method 4: Using Built-in Screen Mirroring
Some devices, like TCL Roku TVs, have built-in screen mirroring capabilities. To mirror your phone or tablet screen to your TCL Roku TV, make sure both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. On your TCL Roku TV, go to Settings > System > Screen Mirroring and enable the feature. On your phone or tablet, open the screen mirroring settings and select your TCL Roku TV from the list of available devices. Your phone or tablet screen should now be mirrored on your TCL Roku TV.
So there you have it! These are just a few methods you can use to mirror your phone or tablet screen to your PC without Chromecast. Give them a try and see which one works best for you. Happy screen mirroring!
