this was a really good video. There are lots of offline uses once it's set up Many phones & tablets don't have hdmi out to monitor or TV but almost all chromebooks & chromeboxes do. After i used your setup i was able to connect my tablet to a chromebook hooked to my "TV" large monitor & watch all of the downloaded movies & TV from my tablet. I wish netflix, youtube red etc allowed downloading for offline viewing on ChromeOS but this is great for now. Thanks
Honestly bro, we don't need the soundtrack blaring over your already mumbled voice. Stop with the Blair witch project hands. Thanks for the help. I'm just messing with y'all. But seriously....
thanks dude!!! got this working flawlessly on a google pixel 1 paired via stock pixel 1 usb cable to a really shitty OLD lenovo yoga chromebook that does not support the play store :)
That's amazing to hear!!!! My CB3-111 Chromebook is planned for the Play Store, but it has been planned for years now and still isn't released... Glad it works for you!
how old are you? because it's not really nice to call someone a kid........... but it's nice to compliment.... does that make it ok????? just kidding, :P your fine
*SOME THINGS TO CONSIDER* 2020 is in the title because this still works in 2020. Enable the Android Debugging thingy will appear as *Enable USB Debugging* check that instead!!! And set your phone to File Transfer mode on the USB! Make sure you're using a USB cable that has data transfer and isn't 'charge only'
Okay so I see people get stuckafter the send link part. What you do is: 1. Go to chrome webstore and get Vysor. 2. When it's downloaded click on your phone allow usb. 3. Once you click allow you click find devices and, click your device 4. After that it could take a while, but it will connect. And done
@@TheSheepster k I got it most of the way I think but then when I tried to connect it showed a screen that was black. I'm able to control my tablet, but I can't see anything xD it also shows a orange box saying Vysor has detected a video issue. FIX #1 FIX #2 SAVE DONE what do i do now?
@@saplingdatree4111 Hm, I would try plugging in the Chromebook, sometimes the USB isn't supplied enough power. Also, sometimes you have to try a different USB cable, some are charge only as well.
i wouldnt recommend this, i just did it and it works badly. The screen on the laptop isnt in sync with the phone. This does everything the phone does but worse
Do you have to plug your phone up to the chromebook for it to work? Because my moms chromebook doesn't have any place for her to plug her phone into if that's the case
I signed up for pro for the purpose of displaying in fullscreen. I have fullscreen enabled, but when I try to watch my video in fullscreen, it says that it must be enabled in settings. Any thoughts???
The Sheepster is there a way to hear the audio sound from the chromebook when my chromebook is being screened mirrored to my phone with the vysor app without getting the pro version?
Hey boss! Your video was exactly what i was looking for! I've seen how well vysor works and im going to buy a chromebook but i wonder if 2gb of ram in a chromebook ( I wanted to buy the acer chromebook 11) would be enough to run my phone with vysor smoothly, maybe i'll need 4gb of ram and buy the acer chromebook r11 which is more powerfull. Tell me which chromebook are you using! Thanks a lot cheers
So does this sync/connect your Chromebook to your Android phone so when using your phone separately all your email account passwords, Chromebook passwords and accounts are now on your Android Phone?
Nope. You do not need Linux installed for this. Just the chrome extension 'Vysor', your android phone with USB Debugging turned on, a phone USB cable, and the Vysor android app
This doesnt work properly on my chrome book the quality was decreased so i cannot enjoy movie so can you help me to slove this thank you the video was very helpful
When I open vysor on my chromebook, it says I have to go to my computer's developer settings and turn on the developer setting, as well and turn on USB debugging. I am able to turn on the developer setting, but there isn't even the option of "USB debugging" on my computer. I'm very frustrated.
This could be the case because you're using a bad USB cable or your chromebook isn't supplying enough power. Make sure your chromebook is plugged in and that the charging symbol on your phone stays there and doesn't constantly change from charging to not charging. All else fails, try a different USB cable. Let me know how it goes!
Is USB Debugging enabled in developer options? Is your Chromebook plugged in? Does it prompt you with USB debugging once you plug it into the Chromebook?
Yeah! Some do have the play store! A lot of them actually! The issue is, some key phone features are missing. Not only that, some Chromebooks *STILL don't support* the play store or android functionality... :( (That was mine.)
Does not work in 2020 because i downloaded vysor on my chromebook but when I opend it up it gave me a new link to the new version of vysor which was only for mac,Windows and Linex not for chromebook anymore
*Im sick and tired of people saying to use Vysor, Vysor is a piece of fucking shit and the whole point is to watch videos, yet full screen is a premium option.*
Some Chromebooks like mine *still* do not have the Play Store on them yet claiming there is 'support coming' for them. This works as an alternative that's quick.
Rye S I'm not sure how you can then. If it's completely broken and you can't do anything on your phone then you cannot do it since you need to install Vysor and enable usb debugging. Sorry man! 😔
The mouse and keyboard should still work, however if it doesn't unfortunately you can't then... Playing PUBG wouldn't be advisable because of the delays you might get anyway.
You enabled usb debugging in developer options? You might have to use a different USB cable or plug in your Chromebook in order for it to supply enough power to your phone.
@@TheSheepster Yes I enabled the debugging but it didnt show up on the phone like it did on yours. Usb cable was supplying power to phone because it was charging it...should i still use a different cable?
@@christianalexander5250 its a notification that comes up when you plug your phone in. It also has to be a data transfer cable. If it isn't, then it won't even detect the computer as a USB device
@@christianalexander5250 go into developer options on your phone and then go to usb configuration, it will give a list of configurations, file transfer is one, you get into dev opt by tap the build # on your phone several times, this is manual configuration, if your phone doesnt set it up automatically

It took me two days to find this answer
Okay so I see people get stuckafter the send link part. What you do is:
1. Go to chrome webstore and get Vysor.
2. When it's downloaded click on your phone allow usb.
3. Once you click allow you click find devices and, click your device
4. After that it could take a while, but it will connect. And done
OMG TY lol i havent done it but ill sub thank u
what type of cord did you plug into your computer and chromebook, usb a to usb c I assume?
One that fits your phone.
Mine was micro USB. USB A to Micro USB
@@TheSheepster k I got it most of the way I think but then when I tried to connect it showed a screen that was black.

Thx this will help for gaming on a bigger screen also does it work if you use the keyboard and mouse
does it cost money to run the app or just for the membership? IDK if I'm being charged or not
Just for the membership! It's completely free if you don't buy anything!
Knowing how to do it isn't as hard as explaining it - explaining it well - Plan your presentation properly, then do it.
Will this allow me to utilize my Chromebook as a monitor while I'm video recording with my phone?
Love the enthusiasm
Thanks so much dude!
Im watching this in my connected device😊😊😊😊
Thanks you for this I really Liked it now I can do something better :D
Happy to help!
hey thanks little fella, im an old guy and very new to computers and i didnt catch were do i hook up the usb cable from phone too ???
From phone to the Chromebook slot
Do you have to plug your phone up to the chromebook for it to work? Because my moms chromebook doesn't have any place for her to plug her phone into if that's the case
Yeah you have to plug your phone into the chromebook's USB slot.
@@TheSheepster my mom's chromebook only has the hdmi slot, I didnt see a USB slot for it
I signed up for pro for the purpose of displaying in fullscreen. I have fullscreen enabled, but when I try to watch my video in fullscreen, it says that it must be enabled in settings. Any thoughts???
Lol, they litteraly blocked anything outside the School district store in Chrome webstore.
Same
The Sheepster is there a way to hear the audio sound from the chromebook when my chromebook is being screened mirrored to my phone with the vysor app without getting the pro version?
Sadly, I had to use speakers or headphones for that. Unless you have an audio splitter cable, there's not much choice.
Closes each time i try to open USB debugging

So does this sync/connect your Chromebook to your Android phone so when using your phone separately all your email account passwords, Chromebook passwords and accounts are now on your Android Phone?
No, not at all. Unless those passwords are synced to your Google Account, in which, it would appear on all devices signed into your Google account.
thanks mate it actually works bro thanks alot
You're welcome!
Do you have to have lynix installed for this?

on your computer? the USB debugging is in the developer options on your phone. It was different for me.
Will Minecraft Pocket edition work on this if I use a Chromebook 11??
It's just a black screen on my chrome book. Do I have to pay to have the feature of mirroring it on there?
No, make sure the uSB cable works okay. And that your Chromebook is plugged in just in case it isn't supplying enough power.
it wont work, it keeps saying connection error browser has no local resources. even though i have my phone on as file transfer
Does it record your fone sound like if u playmg a game and record the game sound?
From when I did this last time, no. It plays audio out of your phone speakers.
But it could've changed now.
I have an older Tracfone Android tablet can I download videos from the Android camera to my Chromebook?
Yeah, connect the USB to it, set it to transfer files or transfer photos and go to your file manager and drag them out!
Great video! I was just wondering if you could transfer the apps to the chromebook?
Not possible
mine had a face on it it isn't working i need help! It won't get past the black screen.
This could be the case because you're using a bad USB cable or your chromebook isn't supplying enough power. Make sure your chromebook is plugged in and that the charging symbol on your phone stays there and doesn't constantly change from charging to not charging. All else fails, try a different USB cable.

Excellent
Didn't all work but i figuted it out! Thank you bro!
if you turn off you phone, will it still be connected?
It depends if you just turn off your screen. If you do, you can simply click the power button on Vysor to turn the screen back on.
what if your phone screen is broken and you need it on the computer to see who's called or texted?
Rye S I'm not sure how you can then. If it's completely broken and you can't do anything on your phone then you cannot do it since you need to install Vysor and enable usb debugging. Sorry man! 😔
