BubbleUPnP

Previously, I could stream a YouTube video from my android phone to my Hopper. I don't even remember how I did it, because once I set it up, it just remembered it and automatically did it. I could pull up a YouTube video and select share and I could choose BubbleUPnP or semperVidLinks (somehow it used both those apps, but I don't know which one I needed to launch). Anyways, my Hopper would just ask if I wanted to allow the device to connect. When I selected "allow", it would start playing the video. Now, my phone doesn't even see the Hopper.

Reboot your phone and Hopper,maybe even your router.

I've done that now and still no joy.
Also, previously, I could look at a pic on my phone's gallery and there's an icon in the android software (looks like a TV screen with airwaves coming off it). I could tap the icon and the Hopper would indicate a device was attempting to connect. All I had to do it allow it and I could view the image on my TV screen. None of this works anymore. My network is fine. I don't know if it was doing it via bluetooth or wifi ( I think probably wifi because otherwise I would have to manually turn on blue tooth on my phone because I don't leave it on all the time.) I don't remember having to do that.

At either rate, the phone and the Hopper do not see each other either via blue tooth or wifi. (And, yes, I understand I have to turn off wifi to tether with blue tooth).

I don't know if this is a Hopper or Android issue. I suspect one of the updates killed it.

Can any of you get this to work with your android phones (I'm running android 4.2.2 on a GS3).

Are you sure it was the hopper doing this and not a Chromecast stick plugged into the TV.

Positive. (I don't have Chromecast). It even worked at a friend's house who had a Hopper.
