My 77" s90f has been going to screensaver constantly during google cast since the tv updated 2 days ago. Worked flawlessly everytime casting everyday since new until after I got an update completed message on screen 2 days ago. Now it goes to screensaver while streaming and I have keep pressing the remote button to get out of screensaver. Please roll back the latest update!!!

- Have you ensured the Screensaver settings are disabled?
- Restart "casting" devices = Unplug the tv from the outlet for a few minutes, restart casting device as well.
- Ensure screen mirroring features/settings are enabled correctly
After exploring all possible options and still no fix, you could factory reset the TV.

screensaver cannot be disabled on Samsung oled

Phone restarted. Screen mirroring works fine but you cannot use your phone while mirroring... casting is better as you can still use your phone while casting. 

Factory reset on tv does not roll back firmware updates... once applied firmware is permanent until next version is released. 

I could buy a chromecast and cast to it as it is hooked to hdmi but man I dropped alot of $ on a tv with google cast! 

I will try casting from different devices and different apps tonight to rule out any issue with my s22...

I see so many people with this problem.  ITS ANNOYING.   But I don't see any real fixes besides the restart everything suggestions that have been around since computers began.

 

Screensaver kicks in when casting from any of my 3 samsung devices.

Iโ€™ve been having this issue too after I recently updated my tv, before the update I had no issues while casting to my TV.

I'm having this issue too, and like you it's right after the update. Screensaver comes on when casting. Not just when there's a still image. I'll be watching a movie or casting sports and BAM.. screensaver comes on without fail every few minutes. Tried unplugging and replugging the TV, still the same behavior. Please fix this Samsung. It makes casting impossible to use. Wont recommend this tv to anyone until this is fixed.

Il having this issue on s95f OLED. Casting works from the iPhone, but it has this problem (screen saver appears after about 2 min that I cast) with both my android phones casting to the TV.

It was working totally fine since I have the TV! I just started to have this problem recently

Running into this issue as well. Anything I cast from my phone, the TV will go to the screensaver after 2 minutes. After paying thousands of dollars for this TV, to have it work like this is ridiculous
