Got mine fixed: the audio was rerouted to the BT set, LOL, that simple))) As to your problem, I'd propose to start with getting a decent player app like poweramp or neutron, then check all the background stuff running and disabling them one every time.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] coffeenkfc:
Glad to hear it got fixed Shabb; I'l post back here if I figure out what's going on w/ mine
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] shabb:
All right, keep me in touch, I'll try to do my best to help you. E18 is too precious a thing to give up. Good day.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] coffeenkfc:
Hey Shabb, Fiio support asked me to reset my e18 and that solved the problem! :good: thanks and have a great day!

So i use my N7 2013 as my in-dash multimedia car center, connected to subwoofers and amps.

Should i be doing USB audio in this method instead of 3.5mm to rca?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] lurch0101:
ok...thanks for quoting me 5 months later..
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] masri1987:
i try lol
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] SunDevil84:
I've been using one for several months now, on both 4.4.4 and 5.01 on ATT. Works great in general. Occasional weirdness with a handful of apps when resuming playback, but spotify works flawlessly.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] dazzler9000:
I've just got an E18 to use with my Note 4 (lollipop). I'm liking it so far.

Is anyone else getting a really distorted sound come through when trying to play music? I've heard this a few times now, normally unplugging the OTG USB cable and reconnecting sorts it. Is there an order I should be connecting this or switching things on?

I've just installed Jet player today and I'm loving it compared to the google player. I've heard good things about Neutron player, with regards to sound quality. I don't really like the UI though compared to Jet. Is there any benefit to using it Neutron over other players if I'm using the DAC in the E18?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Mumraa:
I know this is an old thread but are people saying the e18 does work now with the latest 5.1.1 lollipop on note 4 is just I plugged mine in via usb and nothing happens :( . Worked on my s3....wondering if somethings not working like cable but seems odd...
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] dazzler9000:
I haven't used mine for a while but I believe I was running 5.1.1 when I last used it.

Hi everyone!

Since the upgrade to 4.4.4 the HTC Backup Service is not working with Google anymore. Any solution?

My brother has the HTC One M7, same issue since the upgrade.

When I try to backup to Dropbox, it does work, switch back to Google, it hangs after 48%. Strange....
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nemesis53:
Same here.

My sister have a m8 on 4.4.3. Her backup works mine (4.4.4) don't.

All of the suggested methods over the internet didn't work (unchecking hotspots, removing facebook account).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
You both need to provide more info.

Stock recovery or custom?

Stock ROM or custom?

Kernels?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nemesis53:
Working one is %100 stock untouched m8 made in Taiwan asia model m8x (HTC__059)

Mine is rooted,unlocked on stock rom ,twrp, madein China, Europe model, m8n (HTC__J15) and this issue started after i rooted the phone.

Even i tried latest ARHD rom but no luck.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suheyl:
Hi,

Mine is completely stock. I checked if Facebook could caused this. But I don't have a Facebook account nor Facebook sync.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
Personally, I have HTC backup turned off. You can use TWRP to do the backups. I also used to have an app (can't remember what it's called, search the playstore) that did auto-backups when I was sleeping and saved them to my Google Drive.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fuzi0719:
I'm running the newly released T-Mobile US 4.4.4 (3.32.531.2) and the HTC Backup to Google is working just fine for me. I didn't change anything. It was working on the 4.4.3 release and I just checked and the last successful backup was yesterday. I updated to the 4.4.4 OTA last week.

Mine just started working after i reflashed ARHD again :o

Edit: Now it's gone again. I give up.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveTO:
My FireTV was rooted, I got the ClockworkMod recovery installed and working. I chose to do a factory reset on my FireTV because I wanted to start clean. After I chose to reset to factory settings, I keep getting back to the ClockworkMod menu. If I put it through a reboot, I see it booting up and it shows me the following on the screen:

- Choose a language.

- setting up ethernet.

- downloading firmware (this lasts about 2 seconds)

- restarting the FireTV

and then I'm back to the ClockworkMod menu.

I tried installing from Zip and going to bueller-51.1.3.0_513011820-rooted.zip, but I when I try this I get the following in the ClockworkMod menu:

Installing: /sdcard/bueller-51.1.3.0_513011820-rooted.zip

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Installing update...

Amazon kernel detected: not patching

Install from sdcard complete.

I assume something went wrong, and if I try to reboot after this it brings me back to the same cycle as I've mentioned before and I end up right back in the ClockworkMod menu.

Can anyone give me some advise on how to get this thing back to the bueller-51.1.3.0_513011820-rooted.zip?

Thanks in advance.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nhumber:
Did you try restoring the cwm backup you made before flashing?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveTO:
I didn't make one :(

What are my options from the CWM menu to bring this back to life (in any form rooted/stock)?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kraqh3d:
That message is fine. It's not an error. The newest CWM can install custom kernels and they need to be patched. That message in red is just saying it found a stock Amazon kernel that does not need patching. When you say you "reboot", what are you doing? Are you pulling the power because you think the install failed? You just need to hit esc to get back to the main menu and "choose reboot" system from there.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveTO:
That is exactly what I'm doing (reboot through CWM). The reboot brings up the Amazon boot up logo, and then proceeds to check ethernet, says it is downloading some firmware and then spits me back into the CWM menu.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbox:
If it's booting into the OS, it could be detecting that there is an updating, downloading it, and then rebooting to install it. CWM won't auto update, so it's just going to sit there. If you aren't on the latest version, that'll be why. So you'll need to update to that latest version through the prerooted roms.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kraqh3d:
And you'll have to get the latest pre-rooted image onto the firetv either via adb while cwm is running or from a usb stick.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbox:
The easiest way to install updates is just to select install from sideload in cwm and use adb connect ip and then adb sideload.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveTO:
Is it pretty straight forward? I've sideloaded apks but not OS zip files. I'll try this when I get home tonight:

1) Install from sideload.

2) Connect to FireTV via adb.

3) adb sideload bueller-51.1.4.0_514006420-rooted+updated.zip

4) reboot after some on screen indication that the process is done?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbox:
Yup.

COMPARISON PICS ON THIS THREAD WITH THE SMARTWATCH 2. From expansys UK. Cant see anything to do with WiFi etc yet. It seems a lot smaller than the smartwatch 2.

The interface is quite fidly but I guess im not used to it yet. Any questions let me know and ill do my best to answer.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] LumPenPacK:
Some pictures would be nice. ;)

How is the feeling and the quality of the silicone band?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] iBuzman:
^^ mine has been dispatched from xpansys so good to hear they are arriving already :good:
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
Build quality is solid. Tue band is very comfy and easy to adjust. The charging port is quite awkward but I suppose its worth it for the waterproof.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
Sorry. I should have turned flash off. The screen quality is extremely good
[Sony Smartwatch 3] nCoder:
Regarding WiFi. It's not available until Google adds support to it. Check Verizon page for details.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
Downloading music takes forever. It transfers via Bluetooth from the phone.

is it possible to use normal wrist bands with it?

is it possible to use normal wrist bands with it? Not the ones that cover the whole watch from sony.. But normal leather wrist bands?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] JKWR:
Unfortunately there is no way to use a normal wristband with it
[Sony Smartwatch 3] cdrshm:
WiFi? Built into the watch?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] JKWR:
I cant tell, apparently some users on this forum say it will be enabled on the next fimware....
[Sony Smartwatch 3] cdrshm:
Hmmmmm interesting!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
Just a quick update, ive now had this watch on for nearly 24 hours and after heavy use its at 54% battery remaining! this is much better than what i was expecting. This included transferring 100 songs over wireless, heavy "ok google" usage, 4 miles running with the built in step counter, general messing around. love it!!

The Watch took 20 mins to charge from 54% to 100% as well!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] HussainChawla:
That is excelleny

Can you check the notification for new SMS.: I just get a '1 new message' pop-up window. There does not appear to be a way to read the message details. thanks
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
Yep I checked it, you swipe up to read the message, then you can swipe right to left to read the message thread, then again to reply by voice or prefixed message etc. It doesnt say when the message was received though.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
Just some comparison pics of the smartwatch 2 vs 3. Ill be keeping the Smartwatch 2 for best as the metal strap makes it look way better. I hope Sony will sell the rumoured metal strap for smartwatch 3 seperately....I kind of like the Sony logo on the smartwatch 2 as well.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] tmn0004676:
What SMS app are you using - is it hangouts? I can get it to work okay for hangouts but the native Samsung SMS does not display the message details? thanks
[Sony Smartwatch 3] shehabskull:
So should I buy smart watch 2 or 3 ?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
Ah yes im using hangouts, I tried the Sony Z3 messaging app and that was fine as well.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
Youll get the smartwatch 2 cheap now. I got my meral strap one for £69 in Game. The battery life is twice as good on the smartwatch 2 but obviously there is no GPS, WiFi, mic, dedicated memory for music over bluetooth, . Vibration is more subtle on the smartwatch 3. The smartwatch 3 works with more apps.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] runningwarrior08:
Hey all, I bought a sw3 from verizon and got it Friday. My screen is insanely yellow. Whites are 100% yellow. Also my tracks does not see the GPS on the watch anyone else experience this?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
i have a yellow tinge to the whole screen as well, i just assumed it was something to do with a low power usage screen for better battery life. I used my tracks as well, id didnt state anything to do with gps, maybe i need to turn bluetooth of n my phone so the watch thinks its a stand alone unit for the run. ill try tomorrow
[Sony Smartwatch 3] gs05:
No yellow here, looks pretty white to me
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
I took the dog for a walk this morning but before i did so i tuned the bluetooth off on my phone, 2 mins later i took the dog and started my tracks on the watch, sure enough the gps kicked in, "gps icon" on top left of screen. worked but its not the most accurate as you can see its all over the place!! Ill try again later as i have had many gps watches that have done the same on the odd occasion.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] gusano38:
That looks pretty bad... my nexus 5 behaves like that but only when I'm in a street surrounded by buildings... Hopefully your next try will be much better!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] king conan:
That's bad news... We can deal with half cooked software. But mediocre GPS in a smartwatch sports orientated is difficult to swallow.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] abdel12345:
Only thing I dislike about them is the black border and the strap color differences. Very small pet peeve but makes the black bezel pop a little rather than blend in. Looks great though especially for athletes or very active out door people. I just wish I had some money to buy all these different electronics but there's too many awesome things releasing at once and can't buy them all lol
[Sony Smartwatch 3] gs05:
My GPS was pretty spot on...just looked back at 3 runs and they were really good. May be your unit as mine tracked my to my garmin watch pretty well.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
It could possibly be the area im in, some neighbours got loads of antennas etc in his yard, our tvs turn on at 7am every morning because of it lol, ill try a long run later and see how it fares!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] craigkahn:
What running software is available for the watch? How does the running software (e.g. available data fields) compare to the Garmin and which Garmin do you use?

Thanks!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] king conan:
To use without the phone only works Google my tracks. With the phone paired works endomondo, runtastic, runkeeper and strava. We hope to see updates of these apps to use them without the phone but right now they require the phone near to start.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
My evening jog was much better gps wise, quite pleased now! Almost as good as my garmin 220!!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] djyosnow:
GPS and or work outs

I guess I need to be smarter than the smartwatch. Though I can OK Google start a workout and it will start my watch and phone with runkeeper. Though it seemingly won't track me or show me any progress other than the time. What am I doing wrong?

Also I came from the Martian Notifier watch. It had hella good vibration. I almost returned the 3 on the spot. Is there a way to set a vibration pattern on the smartwatch 3 for text alerts?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] XorZone:
Go to developer options - manufacturer - GPS and test if it locks.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] djyosnow:
Developer options!! ( ; I was smart enough to enable ; ) now from first pair into second day with watch, I can't get it to pair haha.

Now if only I could strengthen or have a custom vibrating text alert. For f sake the mute to the unmute vibrate is hella strong and possibly useful. (anybody)

I'm pretty much returning it after work any way. Thanks much thus far!!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] king conan:
I received this morning the SW3. I like it but I have a first frustration. Anyone had problems to download music to the watch?

I did a factory reset in the watch and reinstalled Google play music but even doing that is not working. And I do it fine. First I download to the phone and after I select the option to download to android wear...

The process starts in the watch but never finishes... Not a single song is downloaded to the watch.

Any ideas?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] gs05:
Make sure battery is above 70%...that has to be the case for it to start
[Sony Smartwatch 3] king conan:
Thank you. It worked. I first tried with less than 40%. Man, you saved me. I was about to throw the watch through the window!!!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] legend921:
The GPS on this watch is very good. I was able to run this both with my Microsoft Band and the Sony watch and both are accurate within one another. I was very surprised that the app was able to tell height differences in the run for the Google Tracks. So far I am liking this watch a lot. I just wish more Sony apps were available for the watch right now since I don't really like to use a lot of Google's stuff.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] gusano38:
I went for a small run this morning. As a experiment, I recorded the run with Endomondo and my Nexus 5 in left pocket. I disconnected my SW3 and recorded the run with my tracks (SW3 in my left wrist).

Total distance

Endomondo: 2.88 KM

My tracks: 3.06 KM

I attach the corresponding screenshots.

I know Endomondo uses some cleaning algorithms to improve the recording. Regarding my tracks, I have no idea if the android wear version follows the recording settings I use in the big mobile app, for instance, I have it to drop any measurement that is less than 20m accurate.

The recorded track from the SW3 is not super bad, but I would have expected less zigzagging... I guess I will have to live with a 10% error. Hopefully Endomondo includes the same algorithm when and if they decide to use the gps offline mode.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] king conan:
The transflective display is amazing.

Under the sun the watch reflects the light so good. Backlight is not necessary at all to display the time!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] nCoder:
If I knew how to disable brightness during day time... It's perfectly readable with ambient light. It's a waste of battery to turn light on when in use
[Sony Smartwatch 3] addotta:
music download

How'd you even get this to work? All mine says is that I have to make sure that the settings are correct>>>that the download to android wear is checked>>that's done...still no joy...
[Sony Smartwatch 3] legend921:
To get the music onto your watch you need at least 70 percent battery life and play music. Next all you'll want to do is open up play music and go to settings and scroll down to setting and then click download to android wear. It will automatically sync the music to your watch.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
As legend921 suggests, I left the devices next to eqch other aswell.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
Did you press on the playlist pin to make the playlist available offline?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] chinfong:
A very stupid question:

Can the watch function as a normal watch without pairing with phone? i.e. like reading time...
[Sony Smartwatch 3] XorZone:
Please test GPS and post more info about your results.

[Sony Smartwatch 3] simika:
I'm very close to buy this amazing smarwatch.. reading here and there i'm doubtful about the GPS !

First of all i understood i can't just use it STAND ALONE?? Or if i can just with google??

I like to use Runkeeper and have this watch would mean(i hope ) leave my smartphone at home and go jogging just with smartwatch 3 !

About GPS accurancy , do you guys turn on gps and start run? like immediately? or do you give the GPS some minutes to lock on satellites? [MENTION=5562152]gusano38[/MENTION] thank you for your screenshots.. jsut one question is MY TRACKS the pre installed app on smartwatch 3 for jogging? that works also without mobile paired then?(only that app.. or others?)

last question.. heart bit rate reader is present? thanks !
[Sony Smartwatch 3] gusano38:
Hi [MENTION=4649167]simika[/MENTION]

Yep, I have used the google my tracks app. With this app there is no way to know if the gps got a fix or not. I guess runkeeper and the likes will update to do something much user friendly.

BTW, I did some more GPS testing and I get the same results: minimum +10% in the total distance due to lots of zigzagging. This was actually the main reason I bought this watch, so I will have to send it back. I will have to go back to my original idea and buy a garmin. I saw that the FR15 costs now 100€ less than the SW3 and you also get ant+ connectivity for a heart rate monitor, btw, the Sony one does not have HRM.

I really like this watch and android wear has a lot of potential, but I cannot justify spending 230€ in a "sports" watch that I will only use for android wear. I might go and get the older/simpler ones that should be much cheaper now. It is a real pity that Sony decided to put a normal mobile phone GPS inside this watch instead of the ones you find in the GPS watches.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] Flav106:
Hello,

How do you do to disable backlight ? I am just able to set the luminosity to 1 but not disable it.

By the way, how do you use the screen ? Always on or not to have 48 hours of autonomy ?

Another question about transfering the music. Can we choose which track transfering ? Because I have a lot of music stored in my phone (with google music) and I would like to be able to transfer only a few one on my watch.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] cykoduck:
When I wore the sammy gear live I turned off, but due to the TFT screen I'm now leaving it on to see with ambient light.

Currently it copies all locally downloaded music, hopefully will change with future update
[Sony Smartwatch 3] XorZone:
I really hope they can fix it with firmware, I would understand if GPS would not fix or getting no signals, but it gets, even inside the house, so I guess it is broadcom firmware in fault.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] XorZone:
Or could be even google code, remember it is first wear with GPS. I've seen some GPS related output in log, will try to analyze it later
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
Hi, yes it can indeed, set alarms, timer etc aswell.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
Will do, I should be going for a run tomorrow, too wet today?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:
I must say im quite happy with the gps now. It seems accurate every time. You can use googles my tracks as a standalone gps at tue moment. Runkeeper and strava are rumoured to make the smartwatch standalone very soon.

Now I just switch on amd start running, the gps lockon takes only a few seconds.

My tacks has to be downloaded via your phone first. You need to pair with a phone/tablet to get the additional apps on.

Theres no inbuilt heart rate monitor, im jot even sure if the smartwatch 3 as a standalone unit will support chest band monitors. I might try as I have one somewhere.

Im extremely happy with the device and I definately made the right choice. The Samsung gear s was my other option and that does everything you ask but its a much higher price. But everything I have is sony and I like to stick to the same brand!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] XorZone:

[Sony Smartwatch 3] XorZone:
Well, GPS sensitivity is great, but it has some erratic behavior for some of us, I'm trying to understand if this is just some units or same behavior for everyone.

I'll throw custom NMEA logging to see if that's hectic data coming from GPS itself or from Google algorithms.
