Sprint LS990 - Lollipop - Miracast and 5ghz wifi - Sprint LG G3

I've installed an Android Auto capable head unit in my car. For giggles, I have purchased and installed a Belkin Miracast dongle. When I power on the head unit in the car and then turn on Miracast on the G3, it detects the Miracast dongle and I can successfully connect. Cool, so far. I've also noticed that when I turn on Miracast, the G3 will also turn on WiFi.
However, when mirroring my G3 to the head unit, I have noticed some stuttering going on, i.e., momentary freezes in video and audio that appear to be random in nature.
The Belkin is a 2.4ghz and a 5ghz device. I'd like to know how or if I can verify how my G3 is connecting to the device, i.e., it is connecting on the 2.4ghz freq or the 5ghz? I'd like to know because Belkin says to resolve the stuttering the user should connect to it on the 5ghz freq,
So, in other words, how do I check if my G3 is connected to the dongle on the 2.4ghz or 5 ghz freq?
I am open to other ways of thinking about this, too, e.g., install a wifi app.
Thanks in advance.

Why do you even need a dongle ? I connect my car android unit to my G3 without using any dongles

[Q] [APPRADIO] Wireless Mirroring Achieved -- needs touch interaction

I have been able to achieve WIRELESS display and audio mirroring with my AppRadio!
I just connected my adapter to the HDMI input, powered it via USB and then used the wireless display feature in the phone to connect.
I am using tasker to force landscape and manage screen timeout etc etc.
This is all really awesome but there is one major caveat, the display will mirror but I cannot interact with it through the head unit. Does anyone have any good ideas on how get that to work?

Here is the thing, I think we can all agree that mirroring with no wireless kicks a lot more ass than being forced to use a wire. The current setup I'm running accomplishes everything that the wired connection using 'AppRadio Unchained' does without using a wired connection, except for touch control through he head unit, which we all want.
I'm just not exactly sure how the head unit decides to allow/disallow touch and that's why I'm reaching out to the community to get a solution to the problem.

For the radio it doesn't make any difference whether you are using a wireless connection or using a wired connection. The main thing is that it gets its input signal through HDMI.
The touch info from the head unit is sent via bluetooth to the phone. That's why you need a bluetooth connection and an app on your phone that is able to connect to the radio and interpret the touch info that is received. If you use the Pioneer AppRadio app this should work but you can use only the "Pioneer approved" applications. The goal of the AppRadio Unchained mod is to be able to use any application and control it from the radio.

So will I be able to use the touch screen using this Wireless adpater and AppRadio Unchained?
Did you get this to work with the Droid Maxx?
Hey <:GeeK:>,
Did you ever get this to work with the Droid Maxx? At this point, I'm not sure how to hook up the Maxx to the AR3 even using wires, since its only outputs are USB and audio. Can I use WiDi directly with the AR3, or does it require an adapter like the push2tv adapter you used in your video?
Thanks,
Chris

I was able to use the latest ARU which is .16 I believe, and the netgear PTV3000. I got this working with a rooted Note 2, I also tried with my GS4, but it isn't working. I'm assuming it's the knox software, even though I removed all 3 files (that I found) of knox
Note 2 is still running 4.1.2
GS4 is running 4.4.2
My headunit is the AR3

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.

[Q] Bluetooth vs. Wifi

I hope I'm posting this in the right sub-forum, since I think this is not a device-specific problem.
So, I recently bought a Parrot AR.Drone 2.0 and as you probably know, the Drone can be controlled via an Android App (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.parrot.freeflight). First I simply tried the app with the default touch controls, but it was not precise enough and I missed the tactile feedback. Then I had the idea of connecting my PS3 controller with the Sixaxis app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller) to my phone (Moto G 2nd Gen., 2014, Dual SIM variant) and controlling the Drone with that. And here comes my problem:
If I have only Wifi enabled on my phone I can fly about 25-30m with the Drone
If I enable Bluetooth (to use the PS3 controller) and Wifi the distance drops to about 10m and I get a lot of connectivity issues to the drone.
I also tried my ASUS Transformer Prime (TF201), that's even worse. As soon as I turn on Bluetooth the Wifi signal drops to almost nothing.
I have found others with similar problems (for example: http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...wifi-reception-severely-affected-by-bluetooth or here: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...-samsung-galaxy-tab-s-10-5-wifi-problems.html).
Can anybody explain why the Wifi quality drops (massively) when Bluetooth is turned on?
I was experimenting a little more this weekend and the issue is definitely there. I was outside of the city, where there was no other Wifi or anything. Looked at the networks with Wifi Analyzer before and after turning Bluetooth on. Without BT all channels had max. rating, with BT on they all dropped to 1-2 stars...

WiFi keeps cutting out when connected to a bluetooth audio device

Hey guys,
I have been downloading a lot of different roms for my Le max 2 the last couple of months. Yet I have just now registered to XDA to ask a question. With all the roms I tried I am having this issue with bluetooth + WiFi.
Problem:
If I connect any bluetooth audio device to my phone my internet signal keeps cutting out every 20 seconds and stays out for about 10 seconds. This is really frustrating and lead to me buying a google audio chromecast. Though I still use my JBL products only if I am not using my phone. Like when cycling or on the beach with my speaker. Anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks in advance,
Max
you need login your wireless router to choose "Bluetooth coexist mode" or use 5G band

Galaxy S9+ (Exynos) Wi-Fi speed drops while using Bluetooth audio

I noticed a weird Wi-Fi speed drop on my Galaxy S9+ (Exynos) while using Bluetooth audio. The speed drop is very consistent, and persisted even after restarting the phone.
With Bluetooth enabled, connected and transmitting audio to a headset or speaker, the Wi-Fi speed drops to around 13Mbps. If I disable Bluetooth or simple stop the audio transmission, the speed goes back to the full 50Mbps my ISP is capable of.
I have done this test repeatedly with an aptX headset and a regular Bluetooth speaker and the results are the same.
Of course, the phone is on the latest update.
It happened with my s7, I haven't checked it again with s9+

do you use 5ghz wifi? becouse if you use 2.4, is the same as the bluetooth frekvency thats why the speed slowing down
