2.1.2 Orb

This is probably the most widely known, free (!!!) home streaming server also compatible with Windows Mobile. It also supports UPnP. It comes with UPnP enabled by default:

Unfortunately, it doesn’t have as nice debug / client configuration capabilities as Nero MobileHome either. But, at least, it’s free and, when it comes to transcoding, definitely more capable than the latter. All in all, highly recommended.

2.1.3 Nero MobileHome

It’s part of the, if you’re into AVC (H.264 / MPEG-4 Part 10) video encoding, pretty much recommended Nero 8 Ultra Edition.

Compared to the first two servers listed above, it has some goodies. For example, with the two servers, it’s impossible to see what clients have been connected, what they’re listening to / watching, what client they use etc. For example, HERE is a list of the renderers found.

The following screenshot:

shows a case in where it’s even more useful: it shows what clients have connected, what they’re streaming / downloading, what they really are etc. In the shot, the first client is Conduits Pocket Player running on my x51v and streaming “02 Track 2.wma” (at 35%); the second is Nero Mobile Pro running on another Pocket PC in the network and streaming “06 Track 6.wma” (at 14%). Also, it lets you define what network interface to use for streaming.

Otherwise, it has pretty much the same capabilities as the former two servers:

- manual addition of shared media directories (note that it also supports automatic refreshing via Nero Scout)

- streams TV

- supports a remote UI

- supports transcoding

(Note that in my forthcoming Multimedia Bible I will continue elaborating on these three products: they have excellent, remote (non-UPnP), smart phone-compliant transcoding and TV/radio streaming capabilities well worth exploiting.)

2.1.4 Other servers

MediaTomb: free, open source, non-Windows

TwonkyVision Media Server (the forum is worth checking out for generic UPnP-related discussions too)

DLink Media Server

Philips Media Manager

JRiver Media Center

Note that Windows Media Connect (still recommended on the Rudeo page) 2.0 is no longer available because the same functionality is built into Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP or Windows Vista

2.2 (Pure) controllers (MediaControllers)

Cidero - Java-language, multiplatform controller. Don’t be afraid of it being written in Java – it’s very easy to install: just download the installer EXE, run it and you’re set.

It’s a very nice and free app. As it has no built-in renderer, you must use an external one to play back multimedia content.

2.3 (Pure) Renderers

Probably the most important is the Un*x-based GMediaRender; unfortunately, it has no desktop Windows version.

Hardware-wise, Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3) is generally considered one of the best media clients / AV (for example MP4 HD) renderers.

UPDATE (12/23/2007): There’s a nice quick summary of how a mobile device can be used for in a home environment HERE, in the first post of the thread. It’s worth a read if you still don't really understand what UPnP can be used for in everyday life. (Note that it discusses the Nokia N95 in this scenario. Of course, any other, UPnP- & remote control-capable mobile device can be utilized in exactly the same way. Also note that it still discusses the old, pre-v20 firmware of the Nokia N95. As has also been mentioned in the (currently) last post of the thread, the N95 has received real renderer capabilities in the meantime.)

[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] Lawliet918:
Is there any thread here that talks about how to optimize the manual mode capabilities of the XZ camera? This phone has, I believe, the best camera potential; only that it needs to be unleashed via its manual mode settings. Inputs from photography enthusiasts would definitely be much appreciated. Perhaps XZ owners can even share their photo captures and the camera settings used. TIA.
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] doministry:
http://blogs.sonymobile.com/news/

If you'd look around the web you'd probably find some nice mobile tutorials.

Some of them share the knowledge with the general good photoraphy rules.

I've learned almost anything myself, just experimenting over the years.
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] tanago:
Learn what different settings do. ISO, Shutter Speed, Aperture, Metering.

Then learn about "composition".

Then start experimenting! To be able to take good quality photos you need tons of practice. So much that when you see a scene you want to snap a photo of, in your head there already should be a raw idea of what camera settings you need based on the amount of light you have, the effect you want to achieve and what effect will this photo have on people who see it.

Photography is a very complex subject, that's why a good course isn't very cheap. It's also very addicting and results are awesome as soon as you are a medium trained photographer.
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] NightOrchid:
What Ive found is.. in manual mode... start with 8mpx @ 16:9 on bright clear days and leave night / low light photography alone at first.. as the results can be very poor with artifacts if your not used to how phone sensors work, you may also find that you have to drop the EV down a touch.. -0.3 or even -1.0 as, like all mobile phones, it has a wide - angle lens, so it can overexpose sometimes.. also start with setting "metreing" to "touch" or "centre" .. this means it will the light reading from where you "touch" on the screen or from the "centre" of the screen.

Also, Android phones are mini Linux computers and computers mess up and sometimes a photo can turn out a complete mess for no reason.. or you moved.. whatever, so....IMO, a good ratio of good to bad images is... if you take 10 shots and you lose 2 or at the most, 3 of them.. thats an acceptable loss for a Digital IS camera.. however, 4 to 6 .. ide look at your technique or even camera issues

Ive found there is very little if any difference between 8 and 23mpx.. just take it slowly, experiment and dont take too much notice of "youtube" reviews.. alot of them are Samsung / Apple biased..

Sadly, SONY has gotten themselves a bit of a poor reputation because their cameras/speakers and battery life have been very hit and miss since the Z1, and alot of folk.. love to bash SONY because their camera software and optics have been terrible, IMO.. SONY shouldve fired their camera software department years ago.. but the XZ has improved the camera alot.

Remember that every single mobile camera looks different on every phone and image quality is in the eye of the photographer, not youtube.. and there alot of very knowledgable girls and boys on XDA.. Im a candid photographer (i photograph situations or "real time moments").. search the forum and youll find great tips and tricks

Have a look at this... it mainly points at Windows Phones... but the photography basics are all the same for any device / phone or DSLR

Enjoy :)
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] maidguitar:
Copying from another post I wrote on the subject:

Very generally speaking, since the aperture is fixed (at f/2.0), the USUALLY best way to take a sharper photo is to use as low of an ISO you can.

PERSONALLY I find that a lot of the oversharpening you get with Xperia cameras comes from the auto mode using too high ISO. If you define the ISO yourself in manual mode, the SONY camera will automatically choose a shutter speed.

So, the bottom limit of the ISO you can set will generally be if the image is too dark, or you can't hold the phone steady enough for a longer exposure. As a general rule of thumb, in broad daylight with great lighting you can use ISO 50 or 100. Indoors during the day I might try 200. At night indoors, like in a restaurant I'll use 400. And in darker shots I'll try ISO 800.

I would try not to mess with EV unless you absolutely need it in order to get a picture of something at all. Regarding megapixels, 8mp seems to be best on these phones as they use the full 24mp to supersample data for the 8mp photo.

Thread is here: https://xdaforums.com/xperia-xz/help/manual-camera-settings-t3501516
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] NightOrchid:
Agreed about the 8mpx ..

Do you not find with phone cameras, because of their wide angle lens, you need to drop the EV a half or even a full stop?...
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] maidguitar:
At the ISO's I use, things tend to be pretty good I think. If there was ever a situation where I'd have to drop EV something like a full stop I'd just set ISO lower. I don't think I've ever had to drop EV when at ISO 50. That said, I've never really cared about getting the "perfect" photo with my phone. The XZ tends to take really great looking phone-display-sized photos. If I'm really fussed to want to take nice photos, that's when the Nikon gets brought along :good:

[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] NightOrchid:
Hmm.... Ive only had the XZ 2 days, so im quite new to its updated camera... but Ill give that a try.... Ive found certainly with SONY phones of the past.. Z2, even the Z5P... they lower the ISO to 50 by default.. which can give a softer brighter image. I also have a CANON DSLR, so yes.. you can never get a perfect shot with any phone.. even the "babe" of youtube reviewers, the S7E... but its good to have a good Phone camera in your pocket for those moments :)

Ill post back how i get on :)

---------- Post added at 03:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 PM ----------

They are great quite interesting photos and great quality.. what settings did you use?
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] doministry:
Always Manual. Usually 8mpx.

Just applying settings according to situation:

- ISO - as low as possible

- Or sometimes shutter speed (XZ)

- EV in my case - always below 0

- Sometimes White Balance according to the weather and lighting

- It's also important to choose proper light metering

- Always touch to focus, it's important to test it - usually some focus points give much better results than others...
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] RAA1144557:
In Manual

Shutter Priority,you can set EV trying to reduce ISO

Keep press the diaphragm button on the camera,you can get WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get)

Release the button,XZ take the picture just like screenshot

I hope you can understand what I was saying. :D

I finally got Sprint to unlock my Nexus 6 and I'm starting to research prepaid plans with unlimited data. Thus far I have it narrowed between T Mobile or Metro PCS and I am trying to see if there are any issues getting this device in either network.

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Mrjack69:
I have this bug on Mate 9 PD, if i save an "ALL-DAY" event on calendar and i set a notification reminder for 9 AM, i receive the notification 9 hours later (6 PM), on the other phones i receive the notification at the 9 AM, i made other test, if i set reminder at 7.00 AM i receive on Huawei at 4 PM but in the other phones (op3t or iPhone 7) i receive at right time (7.00 AM).

For the other events (not all-day) i receive the notification reminder correctly everywhere.

Do you have any solution?

i have Mate 9 PD with B138
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Nametab86:
I get the same - can't find any other reference to this issue, also using mate 9. Made sure all settings are set to the correct timezone, force quit the app and rebooted, etc.

Other android tablet sync'd to the same calendar, works fine.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] cheryanne:
So glad to hear it's not just me! Anyone have a solution or a work around?
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] jscsltd:
I'm having notification issues with calendar events disappearing and then reappearing only to disappear again.

I'm contemplating a hard reset as I've tried everything else to fix this.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] cheryanne:
I'd be very interested to hear the result if you do ahead with a hard reset. I don't have the disappearing events problem but the notification bug for all day events is rather annoying.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] rsage:
This is a known issue - there's a work-around here: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/apps/1VoEy7uILag

Basically, remove all permissions for the OEM calendar app, then install another calendar app (like Google's). If you use another calendar app without disabling the OEM app, the problem won't be solved
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] jscsltd:
Thank you for the suggestion. I have tried this before but will have another go as I've now prevented the OEM calendar app from accessing anything or doing anything including all permissions.

Will see how it goes.

Thanks.

---------- Post added at 08:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 AM ----------

Well, I very nearly did the hard reset yesterday after backing up the phones contents but decided to postpone till next weekend when I'll have more spare time, since I can see it'll be a big task getting everything back in order.

I'll report back soon.

---------- Post added at 09:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 AM ----------

Just did this again, did a phone restart and the permissions I removed have been set back.

Guess this is why it didn't work last time for me. I've removed the permissions again but of course I need to bear in mind I'll have to do this again whenever I restart the phone.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] rsage:
That's strange, I did this a week ago and permissions have not reset even after reboots. I'm doing Settings -> Apps -> Calendar -> Permissions -> (disable all) and also Write system settings -> No
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] jscsltd:
How odd. What firmware are you on? I was on B182 but just gone to B190.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] rsage:
I'm on US B190, I've been on that since I got the phone a couple weeks ago
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] jscsltd:
That makes sense then as the settings have not been reset since I updated.

Thanks for your help.

I'm on 19s, with an unlocked bl and rooted. I see that the 20s update is available. If I update, will I lose root and unlocked bl? Thanks!
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] Moon75:
I bought the phone it came with stock rom 5.8.018S. I installed TWRP and flash rom 5.9.020S (T.A.R.S by Steve/Grosshop/Google Edittion), all these rom come with pre-rooted.

Once you installed TWRP and backup your system, you can flash any rom really I haven't had any issue.

Root is easy anyway, just flash Supersu via TWRP from what I read for this phone.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] destrorox:
Thanks for your response but it doesn't answer my question about accepting the upgrade to 20s and what will or won't happen. I also have twrp installed and am rooted on 19s. Ideally, I'd prefer to upgrade without having to re-root and unlock my bl again but if that's the case, so be it. Just wanted to know beforehand.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] Moon75:
Sorry I was not sure it's OTA update by the system or flash it by yourself when you mentioned about the update.

Why would you accept the update when you can flash all the rom available, the update can only mess up/complicate things on your phone in my opinion.

You will get same stuff as in the 20s roms.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] slgooding:
Based on what I have read I am pretty sure you will need to re-root and unlock the BL again (because you will need to revert these changes to actually apply the OTA, it will fail otherwise). I ended up flashing a Cydras ROM because I didn't want to deal with unrooting, etc, to receive the OTA (since I already had a rooted device and it would fail OTA).

If you want to do the OTA, then you should do it before doing any root/unlock bl. I would then do the BL unlock, install TWRP, and take a backup of the system image.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] entchen66:

you can install opengapps stock and disable the apps that you not use. when you flash the gapps it will be installed on system, that's why there is NO difference in install space for apps
