Hi,
after upgrading to Lineage 17 on my Oneplus Two, screen mirroring stopped working (i know i know, google changed to chromecast and miracast was blocked).
Strangely, I tried to wipe everything and installed back Lineage 16 but still unable to do screen mirroring. (eventhough previously when I was on 16 i think, I could do screen mirroring using the very same Oneplus Two and the very same Samsung tv).

In 16 I can swipe from up, select Cast, then Settings, then three dots and check "Enable wireless display" - this option is not available in Lineage 17.
After that, my TV shows up in the list. I set my Samsung smart TV into screen mirroring source and after i click on tv name on the phone, i can see on the tv, that my android device has connected, but after a sec or two secs phone seems to restart/reboot to black background and main menu. TV still says "android device connected" and phone still says "in use" next to Tv name, but there's no screen mirroring happening.
Wifi direct option also allows to connect phone and tv, but nothing happens.

Does anyone have a clue on what to do ?
