Surface Pro 3 does not connect to recent Samsung Series 7 TV

Hi,

my Surface Pro 1 does connect well with my Samsung Smart TV series 7. However, my new Samsung Pro 3 wont connect. It finds the TV and then tries to establish connection and asks to wait - maybe the TV should not popup a PIN code - but that never happens and the connection times out. Interestingly the Surface Pro 3 gets listed in the Samsung network device settings and is set to "allowed" for connection but the Surface Pro 3 still wont connect. Note i have deployed all latest updates on Samsung TV as well as Surface Pro 3.

I would appreciate to get this working again.

Thx,

Bernd

    Hello, I had the same problem with a 5700 series samsung tv. It used to work with the surface pro 2 and after a tv firmware update it stopped.

    I just updated the tv firmware from version 1118 to version 2012 and was able to stream my SP3 again. Hope this helps.

    My firmwire is actually 2120 (not a typo) and it still doesn't allow me to  stream. There are no further updates available.  i still suffer from the same issue...my SP3 sees the tv and says Connecting... but eventually times out.

    @EsPortilla...is your version actually 2012 or did you mean 2102?  Either way, still  no luck for me. :(

    I have exact the same Problem with SP3 and Samsung UE46H7080. All updates and newest Firmware everywhere. My PTV3000 works, but looses connection all 10 minutes.

    I can see my TV in the list of Devices (Samsung UE32EH5300), but it is accompanied by the message "Not Windows certified" and I cannot see my computer display on the TV. Is this message and the failure to mirror the PC and TV connected. Grateful for any advice.

    If the TV supports Miracast, then Charms, Devices, Project, Add a wireless

    display should find this TV. Is this what you tried?
