Moto G wireless display: the problem and the solution

3) Why Moto G wireless display is disabled?
4) Alternative solutions for Moto G wireless display
4.1) Do you have any other solutions for Moto G wireless display? Please let us know in the comment box below.

As some Android users know that Miracast is officially supported since Jelly Bean 4.2. Most Android phone manufactures usually name this feature as wireless display. Of Course, some vendor give it a different name for marketing purpose, for example, Samsung uses the name of “screen mirroring” for Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 3.

Moto G wireless display simply does not work

Moto G come with Jelly Bean 4.3. In last December, Motorola updated the phone to Android KitKat 4.4.2. But you may find out that there is no option to enable Moto G wireless display no matter it is in Jelly Bean 4.3 or KitKat 4.4. There is no way to get wireless display in Moto G.

Of course, if we check the brother of Moto G, you can find out that Moto X fully supports wireless display.

So, missing Moto G wireless display is not an inadvertent mistake; it is done deliberately.

Why Moto G wireless display is disabled?

The question is why Motorola disable this very useful feature.  We haven’t got any official clear answer from Motorola on disabling Moto G wireless display.

The untold truth about Moto G wireless display is that wireless display is enabled in hardware level, but disabled in software level. It is actually due to hardware limitations.

Motorola chose to disable the Moto G wireless display for two reasons:

  1. WiFi connection and Miracast cannot be used simultaneously in Moto G. If the wireless display is enabled (it uses WiFi direct per Miracast standard), the WiFi connection to your router will be shutdown and therefore you have to use mobile data for internet connections.  Some Sony devices (2013) suffer from this issue either. To avoid negative feedback, and inadvertent usage of mobile date (remember that Moto G is targeted at users with moderate mobile data usage), Motorola has  to disable this feature.
  2. Even you manage to enable Moto G wireless display (root is needed, and it is not a simple task. Do NOT ask me how to do this. I do not show things that I do not recommend), the performance is not so good. There is noticeable delay and sound sync seems not good as well. Probably due to hardware issue, or Motorola did not do any optimization, or both  (because it will be anyway disabled).

Alternative solutions for Moto G wireless display

The first solution you may consider is MHL (Mobile High-Definition Link) through USB port. Unfortunately, Moto G does NOT support MHL at all. So do not waste money on such gadgets.

To enjoy contents in a large screen from Moto G, the most feasible solution is through Google Chromecast. With the official release of Google Cast SDK, more and more apps, including media players,  will work with Chromecast.

Do you have any other solutions for Moto G wireless display? Please let us know in the comment box below.

      In your Google Home app on Moto G6, can you find the Chromecast device? If the Chromecast and Moto G6 are connected to the same WiFi network, it should appear in the Google Home app.

      Although on Moto devices, it is not required to install Google Home app to use Chromecast, it is recommended to install it to manage your Chromecast and Google Home devices.

    I don’t have WiFi with my tv, so I can’t use Chromecast for my Moto G. Is there any way what so ever with wired adapters, or any other alternative that can get my Moto G on my Visio HDTV?

      WiFi is not needed for TV. Only your phone and Chromecast requires WiFi or wired connections.

      Anyway, you need a router with an internet connection.

      For Chromecast, if you only have a wired network there is an official Ethernet adapter (as explained in this post).

      For Moto G, you can use an Ethernet adapter to connect to wired networks.

      But if you are considering to connect Moto G directly to the TV, no it will not work.

        What is the reason behind that? What is the logic rest of everything working perfectly fine. My earlier phone works very well with cast screen with the same smart TV. Now Why im going to purchase separate dongle now? I dont want to spend extra money for dongle. It should be cast by default like any other handsets.

          Your smart TV requires Miracast, which is not supported by Moto G. Among Moto phones, only Moto X supports Miracast.

    You must tell me how to connect my Moto G with my Sony Bravia TV. I set up MiraCast and it doesn’t work. Why doesn’t it work? Should I try some other app? Is there one you recommend? Would you please come to my home and set it up for me?

    Sorry, I couldn’t help myself. I’m just kidding, btw (hopefully the request for a home visit made that clear, but ya never know). Anyway, I just stumbled across your post and was entertained by the comments (most of which seem to have you confused with their personal tech support guy, or someone with an obligation to make their technology work, rather than a nice guy posting something informative on its own). The least they could do is be somewhat gracious when asking you to solve their problems. But I digress. Just wanted to say I enjoyed your article. Thanks!

    (And I know you probably posted it like a year ago, or more, so you may not even see this, but that’s okay).

    You can use AllCast in the Play store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.cast) for video mirroring, I’ve tried it and this definitely works with the 1st gen Moto G sending to a Sony Wi-Fi Direct/Miracast capable TV. AllCast supports casting to lots of other devices too, inc. Chromecast, DLNA, etc.

      Moto G doesn’t support miracast.

      The cast screen is for Nexus devices (using Chromecast). It is not for Moto devices.

      In Moto G, you need install Chromecast app. Inside the Chromecast app, you can find the screen cast option.

      Of course, you need Chromecast dongle. You may refer to this guide http://allaboutchromecast.com/screen-mirroring-with-chromecast/

          Chromecast requires internet connection to function, even you are streaming local contents. The traffic will NOT go locally.

          But the problem is Chromecast will show errors (and you cannot use it) if internet connection is not available,

      Thank you for sharing the info on the app.

      Personally, I would not recommend this app.

      Screen mirroring through Chromecast will very likely come to Moto G this year. http://allaboutchromecast.com/screen-mirroring-with-chromecast/

    When asked Motorola stated on Twitter to ‘stay tuned, It may be supported in a future update’.

      Actually, Motorola “was” planning some screencasting with Chromecast. But with the acquisition by Lenovo, it is not clear whether they are still working on this.
