Got this working on my old Galaxy S3. I am thinking about doing it on my Galaxy S5 now. Sounds like people over on XDA, myself included, are having issues with janky connections via WiFi. It appears to be something with the app for now. I can use Remote Play with my Vita all over the house, without issues. If I do it with the S3, over my Wifi (just like the Vita) it never wants to connect.
However, it connects just fine if I am in the same room as my PS4 because it is using the direct connection. This is just a "hello world" proof of concept for me because if I am going to use Remote PLay at home, I am going to use my Vita. However, I am tempted to try it on my Galaxy S5 over my 4gLTE connection to see if there is any difference.
When I installed this at first, I was getting the 800Error or whatever and remote play didn't want to launch. But thanks to some tips on XDA, I uninstalled SuperSU and everything worked fine after that.

This is AWESOME news. I was already planning to pick up an Android tablet as an Ultraportable computing device for work. This just sweetens the deal. I assume this will also be compatible with tablets right?

I got it working on my Nexus 7 (2013) but I had to do the "Reinstall Cleanup" stuff to remove SuperSU.
RemotePlay didn't seem to work with SuperSU stuff installed even though I was using RootCloak.

You got it working with a DS4?

Yes a slight fiddle, sign in to the remote play app via a second account. Then turn on DS4 and log in to the main account.
Ah, OK. Yeah, I've done that. I thought you got it native for a minute
An N5 absolutely should be.
Yes. It is running flawlessly on my N5. When my roomates were watching some TV last night, I decided I'd have a little fun at their expense and launched remote play from my room. Needless to say, they were pretty confused, and then mindblown when they realized that I was controlling my ps4 with my phone.
I really think this could be a huge selling feature for the console.

Does this work if you aren't on the same WiFi network? Like could I do this from work?
Yep. You sure can
Thanks! I totally missed that post.
Interesting, thanks for the information. I might go for it

Guys can someone please help me out...my rooted amazon fire tablet connects to PS4 through ps4 app but I don't see any link to the do a remote play session. When I try to download the PS4 remote play app from the store, it does not show up on my tablet from the play store. I am trying any way to download the APK file on to PC so then I can install it on the tablet. But with the APK downloader, I get an authentication failed when trying to login to the APK downloader.
Any ideas how can I get the remote play app on the tablet?

Rootcloak didn't work for me either. I had to take off supersu and then reinstall the remote apps after a reboot. Only then did it work for me. Heard you have to reinstall everyone you reboot your device also.
This was on my nexus 5.

Go into supersu and under setting there needs to be option to uninstall supersu. When you uninstall it, reinstall remote play, or just start the remote play app.

Wow, wonder if this'd work on the NVidia Shield. Seems like it'd control really well.

Sweet .
Tmobile G3 user here too, there is a one click root that worked great for me called Stump Root. It's been a while since I used it though.

SuperSU is free on google play. From what I remember it's self explanatory. Just allow access if something asks for it.

Well, couldn't wait.
Haven't hacked up an Android phone since the original galaxy s.
Got it working on my G3. To use a DS4 to play, you need to sign into a different account than the one you're remote playing with on the ps4.
This means you'll need to use or create a secondary psn id to sign in with on the phone so your ds4 will load up your primary accounts game saves etc when you start a game.
You're essentially using the phone as a second screen now, but at least controller latency should be less of an issue. I played driveclub and it seemed to work reasonably well. Cockpit mode felt impossible to use though. Too small to see properly.

We need this shit for the iPhone 6!
For those that wish to keep SuperSU installed, you can now do so with XPrivacy.

Honestly Sony should just sell the remote app on every platform and phone, instead of letting hackers eventually finding ways around it and they won't make any money. I would have bought the remote play app on iPhone for at least $19.99. Its dumb for them to lock it to the Z3 phones.

Thanks for this. It worked although the post you linked to doesn't have all the necessary information.
This one had more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56595718&postcount=252
Since RootCloak didn't work the XPrivacy method was my last hope. And it works.
Thanks for the link. This worked for me. Nexus 5.

What do you mean? What phone?
Z2.
The update can't be rolled out unless all operators agree, it went OTA on ThreeUK today so alkl networks should be seeing it today or really soon.
Edit: performance is really shitty though. my Vita is flawless on the same network, the phone just lags out and disconnects.
I had that problem too. Had to clear cache on Google play and reset phone

Can you not just sideload the remote play APK?
Thought it jut needed 4.4 at least, what's the Z2 currently on?

I got this working on my Oneplus One.
One question though: Is there a way to trick my phone into thinking it is utilizing WiFi but it is actually using LTE? I want to be able to connect on-the-go.
