Smart View will not mirror my Android phone on my Hisense 32" TV.  The choice is there but when I choose the TV to says ot's connecting but never does.  Eventually it says to turn the TV off and back on and that doesn't fix the issue either.

I've done all of these steps multiple times and it still will not connect. I've gone through all of the screen mirroring settings on the TV and the phone. Still not connecting.
