To all Z3C owners, does the Z5C have Wireless media transfer? - Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It was a great! feature to have on the Z3C, but i'm missing it on the Z5?

Like DNLA? works fine on my z5c.

If you mean the "wireless USB" connection, I had it on my z1c also, but no. It's not a feature on the z5c. It was fairly buggy and inconsistent on my z1c. Maybe they dropped it because of that.

Just use WiFi Data Transfer PRO

[Q] Logitech diNovo Mini & Photon

Has anyone tried the Logitech diNovo Mini with the Photon? Don't know any reason why it wouldn't work but wanted to check. I know some phones don't have the proper bluetooth drivers to do it without a 3rd party app.
As a follow up to my original post.....
I ended up getting this item instead of the Logitech due mostly to the cost:
Superior Loftek Rii Touch N7 Mini Wireless Keyboard
It is wireless but not bluetooth however says it has a 30'(10m) range. Battery is rechargeable via USB. The unit is very light and decent build quality. Has backlight option. Most functions work good when using Webtop (except for the Windows specific). All in all it seems to be an easy to use device and makes navigating a whole lot easier while still being ultra portable.

wifi issues ONLY with bluetooth?

I recently sold my ipad1 since i wanted to get out of the apple ecosystem. For the last week I been researching which android tablet to get. At first I looked at the Galaxy Tab 10.1 which I liked spec-wise but when I went to BestBuy to take a look at it, I noticed it was laggy and stuttered just flipping between homescreens (which im not sure if all galaxys experience this or it was just the display screen not performing well) so i started looking for something more meaty performance-wise and led me to find the prime. However, theres been 2 things holding me off from buying it:1st is i just cant find it anywhere, and 2nd is when i found out of its wifi/bt problems. Im not planning on using any bt, so could I expect wifi to work flawlessly not using bt? (wifi is important for me).
The thing is that I need a tablet to read...i shouldnt have sold my ipad without having bought the android one...
some earlier units had the wifi/BT problem. seems to be an issue streaming audio to BT headset while streaming wifi connection to tablet. like on internet or watching a movie. some reported drop in speed. a major contributing factor is because the wifi & BT on same chip/component. its something with the BT audio interfering. we also have alot who report they can do both just fine w/o noticeable drop in speed. if you don't even plan to use BT in that way then you should be fine. even if you did, you should still be fine.
I've had my Prime since 12/22 and wireless performance has been great for me. never drops a signal and consistently gets the fastest download/upload speeds. just search for an online retailer carrying the prime like best buy or something. they are out there but always sell out so quickly. This is the best and most powerful tablet Android has at the moment. its well worth getting. Very sexy looking tablet also
just check out the link in my signature, Positive Transformer thread, to put some balance to things. there's always a flip side and not as bad as it may seem at times.
Well,
To be honest, I like my prime a bunch but if I'm on wifi, I cant connect my PS3 sixaxis through bluetooth. I have to kill wifi then connect the controller. I havent tried reconnecting the wifi but I know I cant use bluetooth if wifi is already active just from that.

I don't have this problem myself and use my sixaxis a lot. If you aren't using bluetooth anyways then no worries there. My wifi is just as powerful as my Samsung phone.

Fellow owners how is remote play working for you?

I'm a little frustrated with remote play on this tablet. It works great for a minute or so, then it will stutter heavily and lose signal a bit for 5 seconds before it starts working again for a minute until it starts stuttering for 5 seconds and so on.
Is anyone else experiencing this? My ps4 is wired directly to the router, (AC68U) and I've tried a spare router I have which does the same thing.
No amount of tweaking router settings /channels seems to help, I'm stuck!
Thats unfortunate, I've had great success on both my devices, i have the Z2 Tablet and Z3 Phone. I'm able to play Destiny Level 27 Nightfall strikes and 28 Story modes no problem (i do have the very slightest input lag but its not really anything to effect game play, u get used to it after the first couple minutes)
I plug into my router and use wifi from my device. I have my network on wireless AC using a AC1900-Nighthawk Smart WiFi Router. Anyway it seems alot of people are having issues so i guess im lucky, i F**kin love it!!
I managed to sort the problem. Turns out that disabling location in quick settings solves the lagging.
Bad, big lags and disconnections. I've ps4 wire connected to my router (TP LINK TD-W8970) and wi-fi connection with Z3 tablet.
I'm in the same room as my router but connection is poor. I'm getting disconnects every one or two minutes, artifacts on the screen. Lag is also noticeable, so aiming works with big inertia. BTW I've only tested this with Destiny.
I've bought Z3 mainly due remote play feature, I could wait for new nexus, but remote play was big feature for me.
Now it looks like something not usable, at least in high action games.
It's ok. Better than on the Vita, but mainly due to being able to use a DS4. On my home wifi (wired PS4, Meraki MR18 dual-band 2-stream 802.11n wifi AP) connection is flawless, as it should be.
My only bugbear is that it won't allow a connection over 4G/LTE. I've got 20Gb Data I can implement and if I'm connected to 4G it's likely to be faster than most public wifi points, so why can't I use it?
I was going to say I literally got an ac68u and z3tc the same day and it works flawlessly. Given I have 150mbit home Internet and dual 2.4 and 5ghz and z3tc was on the 5ghz band while 4 other devices were connected two watching a movie remote play was working fine. I'm glad you fixed it!

What Wifi settings do you have on your AC68U? I've got the same router & have lag issues with remote play when connected to the 5ghz band (2.4ghz is even worse). I've tried every combination on the wifi settings page but nothing can keep a stable AC speed connection.
When I first connect it connects at 866Mbps, then drops down to 300Mbps or lower in less than a minute, has anyone else experienced this?
I would also want to know ac68u wifi configuration for flawless remote connection. I was going to buy xDSL capable model (Asus DSL-N66U) hopping that 5 GHz wifi is the solution for my lags in remote play.
Tried to play GTA V. Very dissapointing expirience: lags, artefacts and disconnection in one minute (did not try after that). Location was off. I beleive this relies on the good wifi router very much.
Mine Works good after a few tweaks, one of the big ones is on the PS4, select the option to connect directly to the ps4. I havent had a problem since then. I wish they would unlock it to connect over different networks. I had the vita i was a couple states over visiting family and i could still play the PS4.
I agree with the majority of comments on this post. The gameplay is very laggy! I tried to play fifa 15 on it and i eventually gave up, movement is slow and pressing a command on the controller takes like a half second delay which makes the game really frustrating. I hoped it was quicker. Not sure how they'll fix this though, i have a fibre optic connection too so it's defo not my internet. Think there's just a few issues that need addressing
I would like to buy these device but for me is very important that the remote play works ok
I have a z3 compact and works very well.
I need more comments of remote play experience please
If the tablet tether to ps4 without enabling data. (ps4 connecting to z3 tablet 's tethering without enabling data), would it work? Would this make the experience better?

sorry I was on vacation!
I spent about an half an hour when I got my router when I got it but I manually set my 2.4 ghz channel so I get zero interference and max range. I also manually set 40hz to get 100mbits on 2.4 which blows the 1900 "nighthawk" out of the water when I had it. Then I set up 5ghz with minimal differences to default settings as nobody else had a 5ghz network around. I feel like encryption type has an effect on remote play but I need to check. I reccomend opening your network, using the 5ghz channel then remote playing. Again I get zero issues with remote play and was also able to play a few rounds of injustice over 7400 miles away. I love the ac68u allot more then the nighthawk (cnet also reflects this conclusion) For 2.4ghz long range speed, it's reliability and stability.
Since PS4 2.5 fw it is possible to remote play 60 fps. Problem is Xperia Z3 tablet is underperforming. Xperia Z3 phone has a solid performance on high settings almost PS Vita level, no problem here. In spite of sharing same specs the remote play experince on tablet is just meh on high settings. Phone and tablet settings are all the same connected to 5GHz wifi, both has Lollipop 5.0.2 up to date. Phone is D6603 tablet is SGP611.
I see 3 options that could cause this:
Screen size 5,2 vs 8;
App apk differences, phone vs tablet;
Faulty tablet hardware.
Synthetic benchmarks show very close results when comparing phone and tablet performance.
Why is the tablet underperforming in remote play?

I tried this yesterday and the recurring lag issue completely disappeared! Absolutely perfect now, thanks.
DS4 Interference
I had a lot of problems with remote play, but now i sloved all!!
The problem was interference with DS4 and 2.4 ghz WiFi!
Switched to 5 Ghz wi-fi and all work great! Also with the last upgrade with increased fps on remote play!!
Remote Play is a hit or miss I was having problems streaming before I tweaked my router 5ghz ports and band now I can stream 2 rooms away from the router perfectly
but there is a lot of variables like router brands , 2.4ghz vs 5ghz ac no ac how far from the router and how many walls in between how much interference in case of living on apartment neighbors wifi interference so yeah
I have been taking experiments recently and found out that reverting back to Kit Kat on tablet (23.0.1.A.0.167) is a better remote play experience than on Lollipop but still not that good as on Xperia Z3 Phone (LP 5.0.2), very close though.
Worth mentioning that Sony applied a bandwidth cap at 10 Mbit/s both remote play and share play. Which is interesting because my network setup link speed is 433-866 Mbit/s and real life scenario like file transfering is ~140 Mbit/s. So local network LAN remote play shouldn't be capped at 10 Mbit/s.
I still don't understand why the Xperia Z3 Phone can do better than Xperia Z3 Tablet in same environment, same settings, same hardware, etc.
Yesterday I turned off 2.4 GHz radio in router and felt that controls were more responsive maybe latency got better. In fps multiplayer games I definitely felt aiming and controlling were better. I cannot prove it with measurements it is only my sense but if you have a dual band router you can try to disable 2.4 GHz band and see if remote play is faster.

How many others still using their G5 as a daily driver

How many others still using their G5 as a daily driver?
I am since 2016 (h850) and using the latest available Lineage 18.1 (Android 11)
Using Proshot & open camera apps, although the camera quality is far behind whats available now but it still works and get decent images.
My GPS hasn't worled for a long time.
My vibration motor doesn't work, but thats ok.
The touch sensor doesnt work, I think thats because of LOS.
I'm using a modded samsung battery
I'm on my second display (replacement is an original LG part)
LOS is laggy sometimes, especially when turning on Wifi after a while then all apps seem to want to download their data, the phone becomes unresponsive.
Takes a minute to be stable. Other than that, cba and can't afford a new phone so still using as a daily driver.
Any better camera apps or further recommended tweaks?
Hi i want use my LG G5 h850 but i have miss the date to unlock it.
so i cant use it while the bootloader ist lockt and the LG System is over and i lost my unlock key
I'm still using my LG G5 H830. I have LineageOS on it which does not support VoLTE, now required for use on T-Mobile;s network.
I bought a new H830 (v7.0.0) off eBay and my plan this week is to root it, install recovery, upgrade to stock v8.0 Android then migrate everything to this phone.
@davestuarts , I recommend you buy a new H850 off eBay and migrate everything like I'm doing.

Hi,
I gave up some months ago using the G5 as the chin started to randomly fail and not let me charge the phone. While I was using it I replaced two batteries, repaired multiple times the fingerprint sensor connectors on the motherboard and replaced the camera glass. Vibration motor started to fail too (squeaking instead of vibrating, I think I killed it playing Hooked On: COTD on the EKA2L1 emulator), and of course GPS was, and always had been, just barely working.
Despite all this, it was a great phone, especially shooting photos in RAW format: if you want to spend a minute or two to improve the photos you take, Adobe Lightroom for Android is the best software to make any decent picture taken with the G5 look as good as if it was shot on an iPhone.
In my opinion, by the way, the stock LG camera app is better than the other third party cameras, with only Google Camera being better in some occasions, albeit a bit buggy on the G5: on Celso Azevedo's website you can find all the modded Google Camera versions, with precompiled settings for the G5 too.
The last month I used it I switched from the stock Oreo ROM to a LineageOS-based one (DotOS, if I recall correctly), and it became surprisingly faster, even tough that meant sacrificing the FM radio and the IR remote.
Now I'm considering to buy an HDMI adapter and use the G5 as an Android tv box, if the chin proves to be reliable enough to keep the phone charged while it is sitting behind the TV.

Hey, thanks for your input, very thorough, appreciate it. I'm pretty much in the same camp as you, although mine does charge though it's chin is a bit loose. I've got a back case on, which is tight and helps keep the phone together, kind of a cheat method.
I'm only using as I cannot currently afford to buy something new, and want something with a decent camera but with LOS support too or rootable. I have been looking at some used Pixel phones, but its about price.
Anyway, I was happy with proshot app, as I like photograpy and it gives great manual control and decent pics but seeing how newer phones are so much better, I have recently gone back to trying gcam (previously it would crash often), which you mentioned.
Playing around with v8.6 and it works suprisingly well and produces some really great photos better than proshot, although slow at times, especially the processing time.
v.8.7 worked but even slower with some features kept crashing it.
I'll have a go at lightroom, never thought about it before. Thanks.
Incidentally, what phone you got next? Also, great idea to repurpose G5 as android TV.
Have you got that running and if so, what rom is usable, especially to have HDMI out and does charging work at the same time?
After the G5 I got an Asus Zenfone 8: small, powerful processor, OLED screen, 3.5mm audio port and easily rootable. It's not a cheap phone, but I was lucky enough to find one used for 390€ (spending more than 400€ for a phone is unreasonable for what I use it for).
To repurpose the G5 as a media center, I will go back to the stock Oreo ROM, as DotOs (and I suppose all the LineageOs-based ROMs) doesn't support the HDMI out.
I've bought a Choetech xch-m180 4K Usb-C HDMI adapter, that "should" (I'll believe when I see it, but I've seen videos of it working as expected) be capable of 4K output and battery charging. I already have a USB-C to HDMI adapter, but without battery charging, and the phone lasts less than one hour, so permanent installation is impossible with that one.
Then I'll install a media center like Kodi (if it can be controlled using another phone via Bluetooth or WiFi) and Tasker to shut down the phone's screen without locking it.
The hardest part of the setup will probably be dealing with the restrictions that each app imposes on phones with root or HDMI output.

Thanks for the update. That Zenfone seems great value for what it has, especially with an OLED and 3.5mm, which I need, you've got it at a great price. In the Uk it's much more £600/€680 and very hard to find it used/refurbished, I can get a Sony Xperia IV for less, refurbushed and 12 months warranty but still too much for me.
Thanks for the other info too. I'll be interested to know how your G5 android project works out.
@tremalnaik Well, I bit took the plunge and found a good deal on a Xperia 5IV.
Brings back memories of my xperia Z3 compact, which I still have, used as a shared media/internet with lineage 18.1.
This new Xperia 5IV wioth its long slab design is so different but very usable.
Superb cameras, especially with their camera styled apps.
I can even use Gcam for better night shots.
Plus the needed 3.5mm jack AND Sdcard slot.
Hopefully, in a few years lineage will be available on, but unlikely to be a popular device due to cost though a great device for them to port one over with all it's extras.
Now, need to repurpose the G5, after I've transfered everyhig over and my phonbe cover arrives. I dont know why companies make such expensive/slipper styled backs, as so mnay people put on covers. Or just make the back more durable.

I wish I found a good deal for an Xperia phone as well: it was my first choice, but any Sony device is really expensive here in Italy.
3.5mm jack is a must for me too, especially when it's the only way to listen music on a 14 years old car.
I wouldn't put much hope on Lineage for future upgrades though: while the developers take an honourable effort in keeping old phones up to date, most of the times any extra hardware feature of the phone will be hard to implement. If you take the G5 as an example, in 7 years nobody found a way to make the IR blaster or the FM radio to work, and neither VoLTE, HDMI, etc. due to the lack of documentation on how these functions are integrated in Android.
Going back to your previous post, I finally received the HDMI adapter and it works like a charm. Here's what I had to do to make it work:
-Connect the adapter to the tv, to the phone, and to a suitable USB plug (for some reason if I connected the USB power plug to the USB port on the tv, the adapter glitched, so I had to connect it to the router's USB port)
-Change the DPI settings to make the phone think it's running on a large screen
-Dowload a tv launcher: I found Simple TV Launcher to be simple and reliable
-Download TV version of the apps you need: Aurora Store has a convenient spoofing feature so I chose to make the phone appear like it's a Sony Bravia TV to download TV apps
-Download an app to control the phone usimg another phone as a remote. "Bluetooth keyboard & mouse" would be the best, if only Bluetooth wasn't a totally unreliable technology (out of three phones I tried to use as remotes, 2 had terrible lags, and another one wasn't able to connect at all). So my next choice was Zank Remote: not as good for non-tv apps, but as it works through wi-fi, it actually works. It can even be used like a rudimental wiimote to point at the screen.
-as I don't want to see ads on Youtube and I'm too lazy to try to compile ReVanced Youtube, I went for NewPipe: it's definitely not optimised to work on TVs, but it works.
So far I've only tested it with RaiPlay (national TV's online platform) and it works really well. My phone is rooted and I don't have any other movie platform subscription, so I don't know if this setup could work with Amazon Prime or Netflix. By the way I could test it with AceStream (the primary reason I wanted to make this setup, so I don't have to turn on the pc and stream from VLC to the Blu-Ray player connected to my not-so-smart TV), and it works flawlessly.
The hardest part of the whole setup is to shut down the backlight of the G5's screen while HDMI is connected: I had to use a shell script and automate it with Tasker. Still I haven't found a way to stop the HDMI out if the phone is locked, to save energy: if I lock the phone, the adapter will actively output a black screen to the TV, so it's likely wasting energy for nothing.

Sorry, thought I had replied to your last message. Yeah, got lucky with the Sony, they're expensive in UK too. Last few years with the corrupt goverment and brexit has caused all prices to jump, only rich or corrupt exist easily.
You're right about Lineage or other custom rom being available for the Sony, as you said, they never figured out the IR blaster for the G5, theres always hope tho ha.
I've been trying to use the G5 as a android box but my issue is the battery drain. Its the old battery and the HDMI dongle with the charging port cannot sustain the battery with screen on, so it dies and also it gets quite hot.
I've been looking at apps or scripts to turn off screen while using, but cannot find anything yet. Theres an app on my Sony phone thats for gaming, it allows the charger to be plugged in, but not charge the battery instead it simply powers the phone, so it dont get hot and you can game for longer. I need an app like that.
My other option now is to take appart the phone, connect a third party battery which is big, like 5000mah and just leave phone open. I could also attach a heatsink or something to the phone internals to help with heat. I'm not bothered with leaving phone open.

Question S23 and Android Auto

Anyone know if the new S23 update fixes Android Auto?
I've used it since day one on android auto using aawireless and same with zfold3 for nearly a year and never had any problems and still not having issues on s23u
Yea there's a lot of people with the s23 ultra not able to use Android Auto
I have not had any issues using the Motorola MA1 for AA wireless. It seems to connect a little more slowly than my S20+ did, but it always connects.
What are the issues that people are having?
Idk what AA wireless is. I'm referring to Android Auto when you connect your phone to the vehicle via USB

Some cars have hardware that allows for native wireless Android Auto connections. If you don't have a car like that you can buy a dongle like the one I mentioned which plugs into your car's USB port and then allows for wireless AA.
What are the issues that people are having with wired AA?
I'm using it since day one on a company car (Ford Focus)
Works only wired but perfectly good with no issues
Have no issue with AA wired. Car is Renault Captur 2021
No problems here on my VW Polo 2018 with wired AA, I was worried when getting the new phone because the S21 Ultra had problems at first but thankfully all good this time, hope you can explain your issues here and get some help to fix them soon.
It's a car issue not a phone issue. Buy a new car if you are having issues?
I have the JVC KW-Z1000W for 2 years and I have never had a issue with Android auto and I still don`t have issue with the s23 ultra, also I use wireless android auto, I never plus it in.
Confirmed working on SYNC3 wired and with AA Wireless dongle. Car is parked for the winter but curiosity got the better of me. Went in the garage and set up my phone to confirm. Lo and behold AA Coolwalk is working too!
