    Hi S1jm,

    Thanks for reaching us here in the Roku Community!

    I understand that casting with your Roku TCL TV can be a bit tricky. To use screen mirroring, start by enabling the feature on your Android™ or Windows® device, and then connect to your Roku device. Once connected, you'll be able to see your mobile screen on your TV.

    We've got a few detailed instructions to start with.

    How to screen mirror from an Android device

    The steps below are for screen mirroring from a Samsung® Android phone. Your exact steps may vary depending on your Android phone model.

    1. On your Android device, pull down the status bar and tap Smart View. You may need to swipe to find the option.
    2. Select your Roku device from the Smart View menu to start the connection
    3. Follow the instructions on your Roku device to allow screen mirroring
    • Tip: Go to the "Does my Android device support screen mirroring?" section at the bottom of this article for help determining if your Android device supports screen mirroring.
