[Xperia Z1 Accessories] One Twelve:
There is no optimising done, the file is streamed as is. They do the same thing in a slightly different way. The optimised bit is they use http or a very low overhead protocol to do it. So its better to stream over dlna than smb. Faster to transfer files via ftp rather than smb etc.

What prevents faster throughput is the Z1 only has N150 or single stream n wifi. You will be able to stream netflix of YT 1080p as those are 'optimised' already. But trying to stream movie files or game play in high rez will be laggy as throughput is 15-30Mbs and no more with N150.

Htc one, s4, note 3, g2 & nexus 5 all have ac wifi. It's single stream but single stream ac wifi is like n450 wifi . Much faster and full hd will work great. Only thing is you would need an ac compatible tv adapter. There is no wifi ac with Z1 :(

Bit dissapointed Z1 does not have ac. ac is good upto 20 feet or in the same room, it loses throughput quickly beyond as its 5Ghz.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] Ambroos:
That's what I mean, the file is streamed as is but it's already been encoded (most likely in AVC/H264). Those are very efficient formats that are relatively complex and are absolutely not suitable for on-the-fly encoding for live streaming where they might have to take into account packet loss and stuff like that without easy retransmission.

The WiFi speed doesn't matter much, you're just limited by the processing power of your phone.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] eclyptos:
Are you saying will be no difference even with MHL cable?
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] Ambroos:
MHL is different since it can handle much higher speeds without having to do any encoding, it's a format that comes directly from the GPU.

Bandwidth is important, but it's not the limiting factor for Miracast.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] One Twelve:
I was talking about content that is already encoded so its just a stream. mircast & dlna use tcp so the protocol will handle any retransmits. If its UDP then you will lose packets.

But take a game, lots of action. What happens in this case ? It's like remote desktop but is there any encoding being done ? not possible. its almost instant with no lag.

if peak rates of the media file exceed what wifi can deliver there will be stutter.

i have a question ? does anybody know what the peak rate of a 1080p video recorded on the Z1 is ? Take any video you recorded, preferably with some action in it and then run it through this tool.

Bit rate Viewer

The more the action the higher the peak rate. Post the peak & avg rate figures.

Big disappointment

:crying:

I received my IM10 yesterday.

Unpacked it and connected it to my Samsung UE TV: Samsung switched on by itself showing the IM10 start screen ..........

So far, so good, I was happy ..............

Connection to my ZU and Z1 via NFC worked flawless (on first connection You just have to verify by pressing the button on the IM10). Works also nicely with the NFC - tag provided together with the IM10. Connecting the devices takes about 15 seconds.

So far, so good, I was VERY happy .................

And then came the disappoinments (setup: ZU/Z1 2m away from each other and 10 cm: both the same):

1. Base lag: 0,5 - 1 seconds

2. Sliding through the screens results in highly pixelated respresentations on TV-screen

3. Writing emails and watching static webpages (Chrome Browser) has just lag, scrolling longer webpages results in pixelated and sometimes frozen representations on TV-screen

4. Music streaming: is IMPOSSIBLE due to crackling and "swallowed" passages

5. Video streaming (Youtube, vids taken with ZU- and Z1-cam) results in freezes every 60-120 seconds, at faster movements in the vid pixelation is beyond recognition on the TV-screen, sound is "swallowed" for 5-10 seconds (and I was just watching a stand-up comedy vid on Youtube where almost NOTHING moves). Twice connection fully dropped and had to be reestablished via NFC.

6. Photos: quality is desastrous: I compared the same photo on Picasa once from the Samsung Smart-Hub Picasa App and streamed from ZU/Z1 Picasa-App: the quality via IM10 reminded me of the "good old" 640x480 px-days. Same with the original photos taken with ZU or Z1.

Conclusion.

IF IM10 would cost 10-15€ the money would be wasted anyway, but it wouldn´t hurt. 99.- € is robbery for such a non-quality, not even providing basic flawless function as promised.

IM10: a complete desaster ................. :mad:
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] benziii:
Dang it!

Could you share what firmware you are on (Both the z1 and the zu), and if stock or not?
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] troed:
Both stock firmware Android 4.2.2, latest build. (4.3 OTA-Update not available yet in GER/AUT)
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] benziii:
I am still tempted to buy one. It would be interesting to try on 4.3 and newer.

It is however not good that there has become a trend of expecting atleast a update or two before a product works as advertised (not directed at sony, this is common all over)

All I can extract from that, is:

Companies save on the product testing/software testing, and get it for free from the consumers.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] troed:
As soon the 4.3 OTA-update is distributed here in GER/AUT I will report IMMEDIATELY if transmission quality has improved at least to basic usability

I can't believe LG didn't make a big deal about the battery life , that's a bigger selling point than the buttons in the back of the phone !!! Thats something every android and even iphone user crave and they don't advertise it?? Dumb move . Pretty much every review so far praises the battery life !

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 4 mit Tapatalk 4
[G2 General] Strategist:
Possibly they feel that better battery life will be more common on high-end phones now, a combination of the 3000 mAh which seems to have become the new standard and more efficient processors like the Snapdragon 800.

Plus they may remember the Motorola Maxx which heavily advertised on battery life without achieving much. I am not sure it is that exciting a selling point for the average buyer.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Shiroitami:
For the Touchwiz framework, the contact, Dailer, and messaging system I find are a lot more straight forward. Especially for contacts, left swipe to message, right to call on contact row.

I know that the Samsung Stock Apps require Touchwiz, and I tried any possiblilty to try and get them working on the JB 4.3 with CM 10.2 (CM being my favorite for being easy to use and giving me the stuff I want).

So I thought: Why not modify the Samsung Stock Contacts Contact.apk and Dailer and remove the

Touchwix framework dependency

so it can work on Trebuchet thus, finally work on AOSP custom firmware like AOKP or CM. I would try to research such a thing but It would take me a while to learn anything about coding....The APK coding has already been done with samsungs Contact.apk, I would assume it would be easy to change but then again I don't know.

.

Can such a thing be done to bring back the apps, or has a thing already been done? With two days of research and just snooping around I decide to resort to this. I simply want the simple, darker desingn of the Contact and left and right swipe of contacts to message or call back.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dwestall:
I dropped my phone and cracked the screen. I get nothing on the display when I turn it on. The phone is rooted with TWRP and EMBRYO 6.11 custom ROM installed. Two things I want to do: backup the internal sdcard and wipe everything.

I got ADB working and was able to copy everything from the sdcard. It was couple of days later that I found time to work on it again to try to wipe everything. I reconnected the phone and ADB sees the device, but it seems to be in some jacked up state that is preventing me from running most SHELL commands - possibly my toolbox has been deleted.

C:\AndroidSDK\platform-tools>adb shell
sh-3.2# ls

sh: ls: command not found
sh-3.2# mount

sh: mount: command not found
sh-3.2# su

sh: su: command not found
sh-3.2# wipe

At this point, I just want to delete my data and the contents of the internal sdcard and somehow verify it's all deleted....without a screen. Any ideas?

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
flash stock firmware w/odin, hardest part would be to get it into dl mode, when doing the procedure feel for the vibration and release the volume keys then press the + volume button then see if odin flashes the firmware, the flash should wipe a non stock rom but not sure about embryos since its based on stock,

if I have time I might test this out or unless someone else can confirm this
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dwestall:
I thought about that, but wasn't sure if odin would wipe the sdcard, and I was afraid it would leave me without usb debugging enabled so ADB would no longer work. I see there's an option in odin to "Re-partition", but it also says in your NEWB GUIDE: DO NOT! CHECK "REPARTITION"

Can I use the odin re-partition option for what I'm doing? I really don't care if I brick the phone, I just want to wipe it clean in case I try to sell it as-is, or trade it in or get it repaired.

Thanks for you help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
from ages ago I read that repartitioning will brick the phone, but yes you will lose adb, pretty sure anyways, but since you lost adb it wont matter, sdcards are not touched by odin, if you want to brick it try flashing a original s2 firmware, I think that's what newbs did by mistake, if it does flash properly and has no signs of life then you bricked it

or keep trying adb as im no expert on it

edit: maybe a usb hdmi dongle to a monitor will work,

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Commodore 64:
Try checking the path for packages used by adb.

If you've already figured out setting up the adb environment and connecting it I suggest cleaning up and re-deployment of packages.

And if you don't have time and feel like wasting a perfectly functional logic board try the "hit it with hammer x5".
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dwestall:
Ok, not sure I want to hard brick it or physically damage it anymore than it already is since I may try to sell it. I decided to try odin (without re-partition).

I was able to get the phone into dl mode an odin the stock firmware ATT JB 4.1.2 I727UCMC1. The phone boots now and I can actually hear the att start-up sound. Very cool!

I was hoping maybe the Kies client would see it, but no go. Oh well, I'm going to leave it at that.

This is all pretty basic stuff, but a bit of a challenge without a display. So, thanks for all your help.

Rumor has it AT&T's not going to pick it up, so we'll have to see if Sony sells it like they did the ZL on their site.
