Thumbs up

Received my apt x receiver and now the review,

The build quality if the unit is top. It's a gloss finish plastic construction but it's got good weight to it and the button has a nice feel too. The blue light isn't harsh and I'm surprised at how nice it looks in white. I was going to tuck it out of view but now I've got it I don't think I will.

Nfc doesn't work properly with my s3. It detects it but the s3 has it down as an unrecognised tag. I'd guess that there is no industry standard way to get Nfc to ok a bluetooth connection. Press the button for a few seconds, a quick scan and we were paired. Since Nfc only serves to save a few seconds in pairing this won't be a big deal though it is a little annoying that this simple easy just works method of pairing didn't work.

Audio lag? - watched a few minutes of russel howard on iplayer and the audio seems to me to be in time with the video which is great news obviously as it can be used for more than just straight audio streaming. There might be a very slight lag if i was pushed to admit it but I found it more than tolerable. Its a massive improvement on previous iterations of bluetooth.

Sound quality is very good. I didn't play any flacs to test the limits of apt x but I did have a couple of 320kbps mp3s. These sounded rich and clear. I was genuinely surprised by the sparkle and depth. I'm used to bluetooth streaming though though my head unit in the car but this is another level of fidelity. It sounded absolutely great on my nad separates. The other option was a marantz networked dac media played but for now I'm very happy with this indeed. I'd like to hear it side by side to a premium hifi dac. It would have to be astounding in order to convince me to spend more than this though, not because I'm tight or not really bothered about sound quality, but because this offers exceptional value for money and totally surpasses by expectations for audio streaming over bluetooth.

In comparison to a direct line out I would say that bluetooth streaming has a clear edge. This might change with voodoo sound, but still, not bad eh!

£27 quid and the old hifi has been dragged kicking and screaming into 2012 and it sounds pretty damn good to boot!

Thanks for the heads up ordered one:good:

Shame about the NFC but not a biggie.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] dev-host.eu:
Same experience

Just bought this MD-310 today, and The NFC tag is not working.. :crying:

This is my error:

View attachment 1152792

Why did I even bother to buy it, when I did read about you guys's failures too.. :p

Even when paired, the sound quality is ok, but still some gabs now and then..
[Galaxy S III Accessories] funb0b:
Got mine this morning, I'll have a play and report back later:good:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] alias_neo:
Hey

I'm looking at buying one too, it looks like the NFC is set up for a particular app on a Nokia device, that being said, there should be no reason I can't write a simple app for us to install that will recognise that particular tag and set up the connection.

If I get my hands on one of these I'll look into it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gvoima:
I seem to have a problem with aptx and wifi streaming. Try a youtube video (a hd movie trailer) and it starts to stutter almost immediately. Anyone else get this?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mmeidl78:
Maybe you should install this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.baggy.play360

Don't know if it works, but give it a try :-)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] beetnubbin:
Does this only stutter audio streamed over WiFi when the Bluetooth device is connected or does it do the same when playing through the phone speaker/Jack output? I only ask because I had some real beef with WiFi dropping a reconnecting and this was obviously most notable when streaming.

There is a thread. From what I can surmise gs3 doesn't play well with wideband WiFi routers.I had it on tp link, bt homehub found others through Google but all seem to be wideband. Solutions seem to be changing the settings on your router to 2.4ghz only . I changed the channel to something less crowded to and this seems to have done the trick for me without narrowing my bandwidth.

This might be well of the mark, it might just be local obstructions/rf interference. If you've got a clear line of sight then I'd try to eliminate potential sources. WiFi might be it. My tplink card used to mash my bt mouse bandwidth. Is it near a pc?

Any other ideas anybody?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] funb0b:

My Mini Review:0-10 (10=Perfect)

Sound quality 8/10

The best BT streaming device I've used to date, beating the Blackberry by quite some margin and I would put it on par with the QED which costs considerably more.

Range/Distance 7/10

Better than most, but does have its limits

NFC

Does

work but not out of the box, but can be made to work with a little effort and a couple of free apps from the market place.

Looks

Always subjective, looks ok to me, quite like the leds that illuminate to inform that the unit is connected & streaming.

Value 9/10

Well worth the asking price at £27

Things to note.

(This maybe my rom, so if this is not the same for you then not to worry)

I recommend a few pair & unpair exchanges to make sure of a good pairing, this will eliminate any choppy play back issues.

I also noticed when connecting that my Wifi would disconnect from the phone (Bit of pain when streaming from Google music). Again I recommend the above.

My overall score is 7/10 :good:

Hurry get them while there cheap :victory:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gvoima:
Sorry for the brief explanation. What I meant was, that when I play e.g. a youtube video so that it is streaming over the wifi. And at the same time I listen to the sound over bluetooth from my stereos.

The result is that my audio stutters, the video itself plays fine, no problems there. But the audio starts to stutter over bluetooth and from the speakers it sounds normal.

This happens only when I use wifi and bluetooth at the same time. If the wifi is idling (streaming buffer is full or video gets loaded, or I just don't use it) it doesn't occur.

I use spotify for music and that plays good without stutter and it sounds great.

But I rarely use a2dp/aptx when watching videos, so it doesn't bother me as long as spotify works. That's the main reason I bought this. AptX and 320kbps spotify, plus the perfect 7.7" size and a great case on my livingroom table ;-)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] funb0b:
For those who have issues with wfi disconnecting.

Try this.

Establish BT connection with 310

Disconnect mobile data.

In Wifi forget your network.

Turn wifi off then on again.

Connect back to your wifi connection. (make sure in advanced that sleep is set to never.)

Reconnect mobile data.

Worked for me :) (Streaming from Google music as I type)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ParanoidDK:
One thing to remember with BT3 as the SGS3, uses and the same with the nokia adapter there or the Samsung HS3000 is that BT3 use the wifi card now...

Bluetooth 3.0+HS provides theoretical data transfer speeds of up to 24 Mbit/s, though not over the Bluetooth link itself. Instead, the Bluetooth link is used for negotiation and establishment, and the high data rate traffic is carried over a collocated 802.11 link.

That is why we can get the bigger bandwith but also why when we push the wifi chip while using BT we will hear stutter on high bitrate sound (I hear it when i am home and and listing to FLAC over BT and the phone uses the internet)

I know we got 802.11n wifi in the phone but still it is sending to 2 ap's witch have never been the strong side of wifi.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] funb0b:
Tried some flac's today, all I can say is WoW :good:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] lj-_-:
How did you get nfc to work? I downloaded the app from the link but what do I set the application to open? I get a beep every time I place the phone next to the receiver but nothing happens.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] lj-_-:
Never mind, I figured it out, had to disable tags from application manager
[Galaxy S III Accessories] s4vva:
Great find!

Good spot, I was about to order a QED U-Play however this looks like pretty much the same thing at half the price. How many devices can you pair it with?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] beetnubbin:
Without getting the manual out i think i remember that it pairs with up to 4 devices. I have only used it with 1. I'm sure you could download the manual from nokias website..
[Galaxy S III Accessories] fylim:
Folks, does the NFC pairing works with the S3 ?

Does APTX streaming works with the S3 ? if yes, very keen to get it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Galaid:
Guys,

why do you chose this solution for streaming instead standalone android box with hdmi that costs nearly the same price, supports usb storage and you can install anything on it?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mattwaddy:
Can anyone tell me how you know if the device is using apt-x as when I pair with my other apt-x device I don't see anything mentioning it in the profile. Does this mention it in the Bluetooth settings anywhere when paired?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] funb0b:
Sound's interesting got any more info price's etc.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Galaid:

Hi, may I know what is the power input required from the power supply to the unit ? I am thinking of putting this into my car. Want to know if it will take power from say a standard USB 5V.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] funb0b:
The power lead to the unit is captive, but there's no reason you couldn't add a small 240v inverter to power it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] fylim:
Hi what do you by captive? Fixed to the device? I thought I saw a pic of power adaptor like those mobile phone type on its own to be pkugges into the device?

Would you mind taking a pic of the power rating info usually on the power supply?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] beetnubbin:
power supply

5v DC 350mAh

The charger is like the old Nokia phone chargers with a very slim DC plug. I'd cut the lead off and solder it onto a suitable supply unless there's an off the shelf solution.

Edit. USB to slim pin DC connector cables are available on eBay.all you need is a dual usb port car adapter like griffin powervolt and that should take care of your phone and receiver
[Galaxy S III Accessories] bronx623:
That device is no longer available in the uk, and can't really find it for sale on the US amazon.

Anyone know some alternative (good) bluetooth recievers with apt-x support? I found one made by htc, but this was designed for HTC phones, and apparently won't autoconnect to non-htc devices

In the end, I would have tasker set up to start a music app as soon as I turn on my car... This shouldn't be this hard :(
[Galaxy S III Accessories] DAvid_B:

It works great.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] binary0101:
Did anyone find a solution to the apt-x streaming / wifi dropouts with the Nokia MD-310 mentioned earlier?

I recently got an MD-310 but its basically useless for me with the SGS3 due to the wifi related stuttering and dropouts. I'm using it fine with my xoom but no apt-x goodness...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] empedokles:
Bought the wtx-500 from advanced acoustic. Its not that cheap, but sound is great. Can not hear the difference between cd and bluetooth flac audio.

Of course i dont own a 10k stereo amp.

No problems with youtube hd movies etc. Only at bitrate above 600kb/s it sometimes starts hanging.

[HTC Sensation XL] stona175:
If you have es file manager or other go to system/etc and there is a file called vold.stab edit him and change value from 33 to 34.

If not. Download vold.stab hboot 1.28 from previous link and install via cwm or adb.

Here is my put this to sdk android tool folder and start cmd.

Write

Adb push vold.stab /system/etc

If you get system read only

Use

it shows me custom binary counter= no !!

any one can explain this because i want to be sure that my binary counter is set to zero and it isn't just a funny value

I'm currently running the stock EL29 with root and CWM but whenever I try to install a custom rom (AOPK, CM9, etc...) through CWM, it says "Instillation Aborted" as if they weren't made for this phone when I know they were. What's going on?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
Silly question, and not assuming, did you use autoroot for cwm?

May want to Odin to el26 and autoroot cwm ans try it that way.

I personally Odin back to el29, autoroot, and (knock on wood) never had an issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rujelus22:
Usually that happens on a bad download. Did you download them on your phone or PC?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tchoppr:
It turns out that is was just the version of CWM that I was using but now I have a new problem. I flashed CM9 and everything worked EXCEPT the data connection so then I flashed AOPK and had the same problem. The only way I can get online is via wifi. How do I fix this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krazy_smokezalot:
Check you baseband in settings>about phone. If it says unknown then just flash a modem of your choice. This has happen to me. On several occasions.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
Cool that ya got to flash from though!

Sorry, I don't use CM9.

I can try on my other e4gt later and test though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tchoppr:
It says "S:D710.10 S.EL29"

Isn't EL29 for GB only or something?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
No its ok to have an older modem and be running ICS. They can be "mismatched."
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
And I have found, in the boonies that I'm in, el29 modem works the best for me on any ics builds..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krazy_smokezalot:
Did u get it to work yet?? Try to Odin stock gb el29 rom. And start from scratch...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tchoppr:
I started from scratch and followed all the steps until I ended up in the same boat. AOKP Build 38 working perfectly EXCEPT data. I tried the EL29 and FE10 kernels but neither made a difference.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kmull4:
Try going back to gingerbread and flashing the EL26 kernal. Then flash the ICS rom you want through that recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Omar04:
AOKP and CM9 have problems with data. every time you or system turn off screen say goodbye to data until 1.enable disable airplane mode or 2.reboot that's the main reason I stay away from these awesome roms until source arrives.

These roms are the best. IMO

1.odin back to stock el29 full reset oc

2.boot update profile and prl

3.copy the rom files to sd

4.turnitoff it off

4.enter download mode and flash el26+cmw for AOKP or el29+cwm direct boot for CM9

5.clear cache, factory data reset, clear dalvik on advance menu

6.go back and select install zip from sd card and choose the rom and flash it

7.flash gapps if apply

8.go back and select reboot system

9.enjoy these awesome roms.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tchoppr:
I think I FINALLY got it to work. I started stock with rooted EL29 Odin-OC, flashed the "StockCWM-EL26.tar.m5d" in Odin, flashed the AOKP build 37 rom, flashed gapps, then flashed the FE16 kernel AND modem. When I rebooted the data was working. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agomez11:
Not that I am advocating this, and I am far from an expert, but I odin flash a stock rooted rom (SPH-D710.FC22_CL287574_ROOTED-oc-sfx) without going back to el29 just to have a nice clean stock rom to flash over with something else (like FIFO2). I just try to make sure I do everything in the same session so I don't get stuck in a stock recovery.

My order when flashing (non-Odin):

calkulin's format all

Modem (sometimes...if newer is available)

Rom

Kernel (with a custom recovery; sometimes the roms come with a stock recovery so if you reboot before installing a custom one, you'll have to either use odin to flash a custom recovery or mobile Odin)

any additional items that the rom didn't include (like gapps, etc.)

reboot

---------- Post added at 02:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:58 AM ----------

Another thing to keep in mind is that AOKP was ported to the E4GT. That could cause issues depending on what you're coming from. Make sure to read all the instructions from the dev before flashing. If the worst happens, buy insurance on your phone and smash it...That's what I did with my evo when I bricked it.

Hi everyone!

I'm going to admit that I'm completely brand new to Android all together. I switched from my iPhone 3GS to the AT&T HTC One X & I'm never going back!

Here's my question...

I can't seem to find anyone with a similar issue.

I was able to root, then unlock using the "super CID spoof" tool. (unlocked through HTC Dev. of course), then I installed the clean rom 1.0 LTE.

I though that the spoof tool was supposed to change CWS__001 to 11111111.

When I use CID Checker, it reports that I am still CWS__001 even after a successful unlock. I'm just a bit confused, & am wondering if it could be Clean Rom Lite that changed it back somehow?

In my SD card I see both the original & the "MOD" file...the original says CWS__001 & the MOD says 11111111.

Any help would be appreciated...I've been searching all morning.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 18th.abn:
If you're using an app like cid getter it will say cws_001. If you put the device into fastboot and use command "fastboot OEM readcid" you will get the 11111111 if you did the supercid method. Hope this answers your question:-)
