[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dfreaking:
IR blaster works for me for about 4-5 meter
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emtownsend:
I am wondering if mine is defective. I have to get so close... But, I'm not sure I want to swap out my phone although it is pretty convenient to use it though.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trainedmonky:
My V10's IR blaster controls my tv and dish receiver from over 20 feet away. I do have to aim right at what I'm trying to control, as well as enter the first command after opening app more than once before dish responds. I'm very pleased with it. Awesome for lost broken and no battery remotes controls. Setup was fast and easy. :good:

USB OTG

So back to the USB OTG, I can't get mine too work at all on my v10. Not sure if I am doing something wrong or if I just possibly got a bad cable.

Hi All !

I have windows mobile 5 on my HTC 3300.

I by mistake deleted sone sound files..and now I cant set ringtone for new SMS message arrival. How can I set ringtone for SMS notification.... I stored files in storage card/Application data / Sounds but i dont see the ringtone when i use the option start=>setting=>sounds & notifications=>notifications=>Messaging:new text message=>play sound drop down list

Also can i set MP3 SMS ringtone like voice call MP3 ringtone

Thank you....

best regards !
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] DVS-SkrewBall:
i believe the sound file for sms needs to be in .WAV format and stored in the windows directory of your device, thats how i do mine and it works a treat, ring tones store in the windows/rings directory.

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] MaskedMarauder:
Yes, SMS alerts must be WAV.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aitch:
Need to buy a decent Dual Sim phone asap - have narrowed it down to either the Zenfone or the new ZUK...

They are both quite similar in price and spec except:

ZUK has USB-C and a bigger battery (which is a major plus for me!) - however it has no Band 20 support...

Zenfone2 has more RAM, MicroSD, NFC, FM Radio - however 2nd Sim is only 2G and it seems to have crappy battery life...

What should I buy?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] human75:
who told you asus zenfone2 has got crappy battery life? phone has got fast charge and decent battery life. unless you don't leave your phone alone all the time:) i am getting almost 5 hours SOT. so which is better than most of phone on market. also asus zenfone2 ml551 fastest and smoothest phone I have ever seen so far(samsung s6,edge,iphone 6,htc m7 etc) so if you think what you paid for asus zenfone2 it is a brilliant device...

---------- Post added at 09:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:32 PM ----------

Sorry i forgot to say. i guess asus zenfone2 has got better support than Lenovo zuk z1:)
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rixz59:
I would go for ZUK Z1, I think Intel and android is a bad combination IMO, heating and battery drain is causing me trouble. But overall Zenfone 2 is a great phone, very smooth. Great camera (beats the Zuk Z1 in camera) but the Z1 seems to have latest hardware like the USB Type-C and also supports fast charging and has a bigger battery too! And not to mention the fingerprint scanner. It is also backed by lenovo.

So for now it is better to go to ZUK Z1.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chiudikas:
There are some negative reports about WI-FI signal strength and speed on Lenovo phone, look around for test and report before you make a final decision.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedisturbedone:
No heating for me.. Battery is manageable. I'm using the 551 with 4GB ram and 64GB storage. Lenovo support sucks balls and as far as i know storage is limited in the Zuk. Fingerprint and looks would be the advantages of the Zuk. But if you're a power user, you'd enjoy the Asus more.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanagawaben:
I'm not a big fan of the looks of the Z1 from what I've seen of it. In terms of power, it gets 43000 on Antutu, so roughly somewhere between the 1.8ghz and 2.3ghz Zenfone 2 551 (about the same as the 550, but that gains from only pushing 720p) - similar enough to the zenfones not to matter really then, both around the level of last gen flagships. Fingerprint scanner and bigger battery are nice plus points over the Zenfone, but Zenfone has more RAM and SD Card slot. If you need data on sim 2, then you really have to get the Z1. If not, then I think it's entirely down to personal preference and cost. Are they similarly priced?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheeze.keyk:
for me i would go with the Z1.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wutr:
I was debating the same thing. I went with the Zenfone 2 in the end. It was cheaper (even the Z3580 4GB model), there's an active developer scene, and it looks as if ASUS will support it for a bit longer still. Oh and the main reason was that it has LTE / 4G band 20.

The Z1 looks like it won't support band 20 yet, but maybe someone comes up with some form of solution, who knows.

After having used the Zenfone 2 for a week or so now I think I could have lived with the Z1 not having LTE band 20 and the slightly higher price. The custom ROM scene will start up at some point probably, and until then you have a fully supported Cyanogen OS 12.1 with an update to 13 coming soon.

If you care about having a 2 day battery life instead of 1 day with normal use, the answer is Z1 as well.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] shabydog:
How are you?

Would love to hear for your most recommanded cases for the Mi4C.

Thank you very much!
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] gizzistar:
I bought the original hard case and a compatible TPU transparent cover...the original is the best choise ever...
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Flash-A-Holic:
I wanted as small/unnoticeable as possible case for my Mi4C so I bought a "ultra-thin" TPU case made for Mi4i. It is fully suitable for Mi4C but you have to drill a hole for IR blaster. I bought this one (link).
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] wingsfortheirsmiles:
Another vote for the original hard case here: slim but with softer, more grippy plastic.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] ermacwins:
Wow that is thin and I thought I had a found a ggod one. I got this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ultra-Sli...hash=item43e066d05b:m:mW3p4W2LiVf50qchAjWJ7Qw its for mi 4i but it should fit. Let me know how yours is and if ir blaster works with it covered

[Xiaomi Mi 4C] shabydog:
Wahoo!

Thank you all for the good vibe (:

If i prefer a matirial that would feel in-between the hard plastic & the Sillicon a TPU would suit? maybe TPU?

Could be also hard plastic but with smooth touch of a sillicon...

Does any of the following hard plastic but with smooth touch of a sillicon(not too slippery)?

Thanks!

[Xiaomi Mi 4C] ermacwins:
Did you get your case yet? Mine still hasnt arrived
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Flash-A-Holic:
Yes I got it. It is very thin like promised and suitable for Mi4C. You just need to drill hole for IR blaster.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] ermacwins:
How long did it take for it to be delivered? So ir blaster doesn't work when covered with transparent case? Let me know what you make the hole with
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] cesararduino:
Guys, tell me if your ultra-thin cases work cause I'm gonna buy one like that too. And if it's necessary to drill a hole for the IR blaster or if it works without the hole?
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Flash-A-Holic:
IR blaster works without drilling the hole but it will work on longer distances if you drill a hole. You don't have to drill the hole if you don't want to. The shipping was one week to Finland.

Have any of you guys tried the xiaomi mi4c original transparent rubber case? If so, is it completely transparent or does it have a whitish or blackish color? Thanks.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] jo2012:
I used the GSMArena phonefinder to find more popular phones with similar size:

http://www.gsmarena.com/results.php...&nWidthMax=70&nThicknessMin=7&nThicknessMax=8

e.g. Nexus 5 and Sony Xperia Z are pretty close.

So, I'm currently looking at cases for those two models to find a matching one for the Mi4c

So far, I've tried the Bugatti Pure Premium leather case for Xperia Z. It fits, but is a little bit too wide so the phone wiggles a bit. But it does not fall out when turned upside down. I'll check out some Nexus 5 cases next..
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] cesararduino:

[Xiaomi Mi 4C] leledumbo:
I use the flipcover, I like it because I don't need to press the power button too often. Simply close the cover, and the screen is locked automatically.

This is the ibuygou link: https://www.ibuygou.com/p-xiaomi-mi4c-smart-flip-leather-case-7085.html

This is the one I bought and use: https://www.tokopedia.com/nashop/xiaomi-mi4c-mi-4c-flip-cover-model-original-free-antigores

The MI logo seems to be manually crafted, but no problem. It's very comfortable to grip.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] jo2012:
Since the Bugatti case I mentioned earlier did not fit that well I tried a different pull-tab case:

"SNAKEHIVE Leather Pouch Case Cover for LG Google Nexus 5" - available on ebay.

It is coming from the UK and I must say that it fits nicely, works as desigend and looks good.

It is also pretty sturdy.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Staci Burgess:
I recorded a really important event yesterday, holding my camera horizontally with the top of the phone to the left, and I then transferred it to my PC and a flash drive. When I played it on my computer it is sideways. I tried to edit with Window Live Movie Maker but it won't play the MP4 format videos. Does anyone know why this happens, and what I can do to fix this? I know I am not supposed to be shooting videos vertically, they look terrible.

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Staci
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] DroidXrei:
Was the video being shot facing downwards? If so, the phone might have automatically rotated the video thinking it was in portrait mode. If the entire video is in landscape, edit the file on the phone first and rotate it using the video editing app before sending it to your PC.

you can use a video editor tool to rotate the video

[Nexus 6P General] Civuck:
It seems 4K/UHD video functionality in smartphones does not get a lot of attention beyond a phone "can do it".

Does anyone have any info on the file specifications of 4K video created by the Nexus 6P - particularly video bitrate which will indicate file sizes/storage requirements?

Also, the Snapdragon 810 in the Nexus 6P apparently can support 4K playback and 4K capture using the new h.265 (aka "HEVC") compression which uses much less storage space. Any word on if this can get used with the Nexus 6P?

Finally, in light of the fact the phone does not have USB 3.0 or MHL 3.0/HDMI for a direct-to-TV connection, Chromecasting is limited to 1080p, and YouTube re-compresses 4K video uploads - what exactly is the procedure for watching the native 4K video files recorded on the Nexus 6P on a 4K television since they will be the highest quality? (This seems to be a question not necessarily aimed just at the Nexus 6P. )

As near as I can tell, you will be relying on a USB 2.0 wired connection from the 6P to offload what are potentially enormous 4K video files to external storage. If you are fortunate enough to have an 802.11ac wireless network, that could be quicker - but unless someone can link to some tests - I have not seen any Nexus 6P 802.11ac throughput numbers to see how they compare to the phone's USB 2.0 speeds.

Any comments regarding these notes would be appreciated.
[Nexus 6P General] Civuck:
Are any new owners able to post some file specs for the Nexus 6P 4K/UltraHD video clips?

MediaInfo is a popular free app for pulling those details.

Thanks.
[Nexus 6P General] italia0101:
To actually watch the native 4k recording on a TV the best way i've found is to transfer to a USB
[Nexus 6P General] ydooby:
Install WebDAV Server or Samba Server and use your Android as a network drive for your PC or Mac over Wi-Fi. Simple.
[Nexus 6P General] IMMORTALKING69:
I tried asking this in the GS6 forums and had no luck. I have an s6 and want to do the same. My TV is a smart Samsung TV and i dont need chromecast to stream. It will only let me do 1080p though and not even 60fps even though its a 60hz tv, said frame 58 not supported. Anyways, i was wandering if you can use a shield TV console to stream to since it used AC wifi and HDMI 2.0 for 60fps. Was looking at the razor forge also just for FHD 60fps. Hopefully Tv's will start implementing the tech to stream 4k over wifi.
[Nexus 6P General] Civuck:
It seems you would need a -very- solid 802.11ac connection to the phone to stream 4K content wirelessly from it. Even then, it's likely to be very choppy - particularly if the video bitrate for the 4K clips the Nexus records is high.

Also, this -may- work streaming to a PC, but what about a 4K television?
[Nexus 6P General] IMMORTALKING69:
Nvm looks like the SD820 WILL deploy this tech.
[Nexus 6P General] Civuck:
I think it really comes down to whether the phone manufacturer wants to take advantage of the various capabilities of the Snapdragon.

As I understand, just because the Snapdragon can do it doesn't mean the manufacturer will make it available.

Not knowing the business of it all, it could be there are also licensing issues and fees for certain feature too.
[Nexus 6P General] ydooby:
A very high quality 4K video @ 60fps requires only around 60-80Mbps, which is well within the typical real-life throughput of a 802.11n network, let alone a 820.11ac one.

As for watching on a 4k TV, just connect your PC to a 4k TV via HDMI 2.0 and be done with it.
[Nexus 6P General] Civuck:
I believe the Nexus 6P is limited to 30fps for 4K video. Nonetheless, it could still be at 50Mbps like the Note 3 which creates very large files, very fast.

So has anyone actually seen some Nexus 6P 802.11ac or 802.11n speed numbers for offloading data to a PC?

Re: "just connect your PC to a 4K TV..." - you make it sound like this is a completely simple, quick and straightforward procedure. Needing a PC to watch 4K video from the phone is bad enough, but hauling your PC into the living room simply isn't reasonable.
[Nexus 6P General] ydooby:
I mean "PC" in a broader sense, which include laptops, many of which are now starting to support HDMI 2.0 too. I forgot, however, that the 6P doesn't support 4k @ 60fps, so any laptop with a HDMI 1.4 output will get the 4k job done at 30fps.
