Question: I have a Pixel device with GrapheneOS. In settings there is an option to CAST my device to a monitor wirelessly. Which device do I need to buy to use this feature? I tried AnyCast but didn’t work.

    I looked into this a while ago, I don’t know a solution, but if I recall correctly miracast, the “normal” protocol for casting, was removed from AOSP in like Android 6 or something. Many major manufacturers have added it back like Samsung for example, but that led to many custom ROMs not having it, as they just don’t have the same capacities as the bigger companies.

      You’re right, Google removed the Miracast support from AOSP to “force” the user to buy Chromecast that has its own proprietary cast protocol and disabled HDMI OUT PUT support of Pixel devices using firmware lock. Shit company
