Casting on Mi Box S while sleeping

by hamedaf

Did they solve the issue where you can't cast to the device if it was in sleep mode?

Someone recommended using Wakelock app to keep network connection alive in sleep mode. I can't find the original post anymore.

Here is what I copied from that original post:

This will stop the Mi Box from dropping networking while it’s off so it’s always available to cast. Cast will be able wake up box, wake up TV via CEC. You have to enable the processor lock and wifi normal lock.
