I don't get any lines like that in my ADB, I'm not sure if I'm doing this wrong or what. Plug phone into USB, start adb logcat and dump to a file, connect headphones and play music. I don't even get a line with D/CODEC etc. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Edit: Just tested with a Note 2 which surely has Apt-x and it doesn't show up, in addition I finally got a response from the manufacturer of these headphones and they said Apt-X does not work with these headphones on phones, only on standalone transmitting devices because of the headset/mic part of the device. I'm not sure why they didn't allow you to toggle between apt-x and a2dp like the sony headphones I tried previously do. The good news is I can reprogram them to allow apt-x with phones, I just have to get a device to reprogram them, I'll get back to this thread once I manage all that.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Pierre118:
What type of headphone you own?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] nxneko:
aptX is working on United Arab Emirates model too, still had to do workaround though.

I love em! The bass response is awesome!

Sennheiser also has aptX enabled bluetooth headphones, but I don't like them so much.

The Logitech UE9000 also have great reviews
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Pierre118:
I also have the Bluedio R+, hope you can find a way to use apt-x on this headphone.

AAC over Bluetooth Support

Dears,

I would like to buy Parrot Zik bluetooth earphones for my Galaxy Note 3 (Octa). But Parrot Zik doesn't support aptX codec, and also they have only 2.1 + EDR bluetooth version. Parrot service desk told me that the earphones support AAC codec over Bluetooth.

Standart SBC codec of course is also supported, but it has lower quality.

Does Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (Octa) support AAC codec over Bluetooth?

Thanks in advance!

BLUEBUDS X

There is only ONE Bluetooth Stereo headset that can be recommended

In my opinion

Good sound , best fit, sweat and waterproof

after one year still 7 hours of music playback

For this size Sony managed only 2 hours

[Galaxy Note 3 General] Cavcalade:
Hi MaxKamis,

According to their website, they do support the AAC codec. But I'm not sure if it is supported via bluetooth.

http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxynote3-gear/spec.html

Something else. If you consider spending that much on headphones, I encourage you to look at the Harman/Kardon BT headphones. Same price range and it supports aptX. Truly awesome headphones.

UPDATE:

HOLY CRAP: If you are quick, at amazon.com they currently sell for $119. That's a very good price. I paid €250 (~$340) in 2012 in Germany.

Harman/Kardon BT http://www.amazon.com/Harman-Kardon-BT-Headphones-Technology/dp/B00A3R3U2U/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1391728578&sr=8-2&keywords=harman+kardon+bt

UPDATE 2: They were quick. Changed the price back to $199.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dsf3g:
I bought the wired HK headphones for $99 a while back and they are far and away my favorite headphones. Heard them at an Apple store and they sounded better than everything else they had on display (Audio Technicas, Bang & Olufsen, Bowers & Wilkins... to say nothing of the awful, bass heavy Beats). These are closed headphones, meaning that they don't leak a lot of sound for others to hear, but they have a very open sound. Closed headphones can sometimes sound like you're listening to music in a tiny broom closet. These are much more concert hall sized in terms of the expansiveness of the sound. If I could score the BT versions for $119, I wouldn't hesitate to pull the trigger.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] CehowardNote3:
I purchased the Sony MDR 10RBT, which sell for $250/$199.95 but were on sale for $149.95, and they support Aptx.. I have a Note 3, but have no idea of when it Aptx is activated. The Sony MDR 10RBT, in my opinion are awesome. I also ordered the Bluedio R+ Legends. They supposed to have Aptx, but if one would read closer, it is deactivated. However, one could download their program and activate.. It could be that the Aptx in the Note 3 works by default. If it senses and Aptx device connected to it, activates automatically.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] CehowardNote3:
Bumping up this thread, because I have dwelled further into this aptx..

First off, the Note does have aptx...

I have the Sony MDR 10RBT, and you have to turn on Sound Quality Mode on these headphones by holding down the power and the +volume button.The headphones acknowledges that is ready to recieve aptx by three blue flashes. I have Harman Kardon BT, and the aptx comes on automatically when connected to a aptx device like the Note 3. The Harman Kardon will flash 4 times when aptx is activated..

My questions is this, will a aptx capable heaphones sound better than non-aptx headphones when the source has aptx??

Example again, which headphone would sound better, the Sony MDR 10RBT which has aptx or the AKG K845BT which does not have aptx??
[Galaxy Note 3 General] burrzoo:
Of course, I and every other backer have not actually heard these new bluetooth in-ear headphones in person but they sound SO promising that I'm in for one. Check out "The Dash" project on Kickstarter here.

I am always on the hunt for the best BT Headphones that would be extremely portable and not over-the-ear and these seem so promising!

What do you all think about them?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] CehowardNote3:
The in ear buds seems to be awesome.. In addition, make my point valid, that anything going bluetooth these days must have aptx to be competitive.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] markyboy81:
I'm a bit confused about this. Whilst I don't doubt for a second that the Note 3 has apt-x I can't understand why there doesn't seem to be any mention of this in the specs, or on the CSR website?

Also, the Samsung galaxy s5 doesn't seem to support apt-x (according to specs), I wonder if it actually does though..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] CehowardNote3:
I think Samsung caused that to be confusing by putting the apt-x logo on some boxes in some countries, and not putting the logo on boxes in some other countries.

l can assure you that the Note 3, Note 2, S3, S4 and surely this new S5 has aptx no matter whether it is on the box or not..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] markyboy81:
That's good to know as if they didn't it would be a backwards step!

I'd just have thought they'd want to show off that it was included in the specs and also make sure it's on the CSR website.

Having said that the s4 zoom supports apt-x (I think), and that's also not listed.

Is there any other way to tell that it's on board?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Manofjesus:
Does anybody know - aptx support actual only for Snapdragon version of Note 3 or also truth for Exynos 5420 Note 3 ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nagar975:
Hello! I've soft bricked my phone. The advantage is it is still going to download mode(vol down+home+power). Except this if I try to POWER ON/Recoverymode in any way..it shows the soft bricked logo( attached jpg). When it was running with original stock from SAMSUNG, I used semaphore/cynogenmod to upgrade it to ICS. Well, it worked fine but I did a mistake by again flashing semaphore to restore the data I took backup earlier. Then It hanged at SAMSUNG logo. Then I tried ODIN to flash it to the original stock, it throws an error messages on the screen, "E: failed to mount /dbdata(Invalid arguement) copying media files…. E: failed to mount /dbdata(file exits) E: copy_dbdata_media: can’t mount /dbdata your storage not prepared yet. Please use UI menu for format and reboot actions media files copy failed. ” and some more msges. Then I tried HEIMDALL to flash it to the original stock..Again falied. Now it went to softbrick... Is there any solution for this or now the phone is only meant for PAPER WEIGHT at this stage. Sorry for the long story...I thought this description wil give you clear picture where I screwed up ,so that you can suggest a proper solution. Thnx in advance.

You need to read this and links in it, most likely you had lagfix, or you had converted your SD card to a different format , such that your SD card is not usable by stock ROMs., so you may nee to use an Ext SD card ( partitioned into two) to get your phone working first than try to recover your internal SD card..

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nadiferns:
Hi,

I am using a htc explorer A310e. I proceeded to root the phone yesterday and the entire process got done perfectly. After the process I installed rootchecker and I was informed that I had successfully rooted my device. After this, I proceeded to install a custom ROM ( The S.H.T.D ROM from this site: theappjuice.com/best-htc-explorer-custom-roms.

After flashing Superuser, and the ROM files as well, my phone seemed to be ok.

Today, I downloaded link2sd on my phone and tried to move apps from my phone memory to the external (I followed the protocol of making partitions on the ext. memory first etc..)

I open the link2sd app>

I'm looking at a box that required me to select the file system of my SD card's second partition>

I select ext2 and click ok>

I'm given a root access warning message ("Link2sd could not obtain root access. If you have root access make sure you respond 'Allow' or 'Grant' to the superuser request.")

So, I go open the Superuser app and I proceed to update my su binary (as per a few tutorial videos I watched).

I try to update. It successfully proceeds up to the point where "Download new binary_okay!"

But then next, "Gaining root access_fail!"

I tried plenty of things like clearing the data for superuser app and then trying again, rebooting my phone etc. Nothing is helping.

After trying everything I could, I looked into the Rootchecker app again and Now I'm told that my phone does not have proper root access.

Please help me. I'm so worried. I'm starting to think the rooting process didn't happen properly and my phone might end up being bricked. :|

(p.s. I'm very new to this. This is also my first time rooting.)

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] stot:
Hi,

Got my Jasjar today and very happy with it. I am in and out of a LOT of Wifi zones daily so was wondering if there is a way, when WiFi and GPRS are both on and im in a WiFi area all net connections use WiFi not GPRS/3G if both are active.

I did a test and it seemed my messenger program was still using the GPRS connection when on the WiFi Network.

Cheers

Stot
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] timetex:
I need to get a proper answer - but I have discovered this.

I walked home from work the other day on MSN using 3G.

I arrived home, and the unit picked up my WiFi signal and connected.

I then dropped the phone (radio) link using the control panel.

The MSN connection remained active, and I remained on WiFi even when bringing up the phone radio again. WiFi was definately being used in this instance.

I wasn't able to tell whether or not this would work WITHOUT turning the phone part off and back on again.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] stot:
Yeah that is whats happening here. I put on GPRS monnitor and set it to watch the GPRS connection only and hit my WiFi spot, even when wifi was connected it was still using the GPRS to send/recieve internet data. If I then turn off GPRS the it carrys on as if nothing had happened on Wifi.

With the cost of mobile Data these days it really should always default to a connected WiFi connection if its available and not the GPRS/3G connection.

I suppose a utility that disconnected GPRS when a WiFi connection becomes active would effectively do this as once you are out of the WiFi spot GPRS would be initiated to make connection.

Cheers

I live in Thailand and have been waiting for Z1 release here. I don't want to import from EU due to high import duty and lack of warranty in case I get defective phone. I just went to Sony Store to see if I could pre-order one. They told me that Z1 will officially launch at Thailand Mobile Expo 2013 from Oct 3~6 and I can pre-order at Sony booth. I'll order mine on very first day:) Hope it'll come with latest firmware and fix superior auto by the time it is released.
[Xperia Z1 General] DamBadz:
What model that sell in Thailand c6902 or c6903? Thx
[Xperia Z1 General] Sitti01:
It is not clear if they are going to release just one model with LTE or 2 models with and without it. A guy at sony store had no detail info.
[Xperia Z1 General] DamBadz:
Are you Thai?
[Xperia Z1 General] Sitti01:
Nope, just a farang (westerner in Thai) live and work here.

for pre-order.

I'm in Thailand, I bought from Clove in the UK and although I paid VAT in Thailand I was exempt from VAT in the UK so actually worked out cheaper even with postage

warranty is a concern but if it comes to the worst I'll post it to Clove

Nice to see Thailand stepping up a little
[Xperia Z1 General] DamBadz:
if you ask me yes am going to get z1 on the first day of mobile expo and I'm Thai to^^
[Xperia Z1 General] natkaen:
hope there'll be lots in stock. since i won't be able to get there till about 2pm :crying:
[Xperia Z1 General] Sitti01:
I don't think we will be waiting too long even if we don't get it on first batch. Thai market is still crazy with galaxy and iphone. I bet many Thai smart phone users don't even know about Z1.
[Xperia Z1 General] DamBadz:
Yeashh that right :thumbup:
[Xperia Z1 General] natkaen:
xperia z1 price has been confirmed at 20,990 baht with 3 colors to choose. the price is quite good, i thought it'd be like 22,900 baht. i hope there'll be 4g since 1 web said there was going to be 4g but another web said there won't be.
[Xperia Z1 General] Geoffxx:
At that price it has to be the C6902 HSPA version I'd be very surprised if it was the LTE version - still good price though
[Xperia Z1 General] natkaen:
THE ldrdsal

it's actually the LTE version. i've just read the official sony xp page and they said it was LTE, but i don't think thailand need LTE anyway lol
[Xperia Z1 General] Geoffxx:
does that price include taxes etc as it's about 4k cheaper than I bought mine for from the UK when you include delivery and VAT - very good indeed
[Xperia Z1 General] natkaen:
i think so, because lg g2 launch price was 19,900 baht and it was sold at the shop for 19,900 baht.
[Xperia Z1 General] Sitti01:
pas ossiaire

Reasonable price, cheaper than what I was expecting. I'm going to get purple:D Never had a purple phone before. LTE...I don't really care much about that. If it is included, well that would be great. If not, no big deal. LTE won't be widely available in Bangkok in a year or two. By that time, we all will be buying new phones anyway.
[Xperia Z1 General] natkaen:
sony page said that there won't be much purple color in stock, so you'd better hurry! :good:
[Xperia Z1 General] Sitti01:
Oh no:(, thanks for the heads up. Btw are they actually going to sell at Sony booth or just taking pre-order?

Could you post link the to this Sony page? I can't find it.
[Xperia Z1 General] natkaen:
yep, you can get your device straight away. no pre-order. the page is in facebook https://www.facebook.com/sonyxpth it's in thai though. still not sure if it's 4g or 3g since sony didn't confirm officially, but their sony xp page said so. the old model that was Z and ZU both had seperate version of 3g/4g for sell with difference prices, they might do that again with z1 lol. have to wait for them to confirm officially. i don't really care anyway since i'll still get it. :laugh:

Miracast / AllShare Cast (Device Mirroring) Compatibility List​

Hi there everybody.

I'd like to request everybody with naming as much Miracast / Allshare cast devices as they can and with which device's they're working with and not working with, what issues you have and what is working flawless as much as possible.

I'd like to create a thread with as much info as possible.

The MDS (Minimal Data Set) we need is as following, in 2 parts)

Receiver:

- Full name of receiver (e.g.: Sony Wireless Display IM10).

- Protocol's name (e.g.: Miracast).

- Where you got it from (e.g.: Sony's online web shop).

- Connectivity possibilities (e.g.: HDMI (1080p, micro-usb for power, NFC to connect) (please keep it short, but sharp).

Device:

- Full name of device (e.g.: Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505).

- Protocol's name (e.g.: Allshare Cast).

- Where you got it from (e.g.: Mobile phone store (with contract)).

- Connectivity issues (e.g.: Static image's fade, 1080p video stutters every 5 seconds, games might not be visible, etc.).

Every e.g. are actually Examples Given, not real issues I have met, or have seen.

The meaning of this thread is for people that have bought a receiver, can share their opinion.

Off course this is also handy if people WANT to buy a receiver, just like me, to have a good birds eye view of device connectivity possibilities, what is working, what they need, what they want, and what is working, with which devices and which ones have issues.
