thanks for your answer.
but unfortunately, tectiles wants to write the specified tasks onto the nfc-tag. and the tags included are read only.
also, air plane mode isn't available in this app.

thanks for the hint, but it's nearly the same as the preinstalled smart connect. doesn't have airplane-mode too.

Smart Tags app is no longer supported. Sony states that SmartConnect replaced SmartTags app.

Because is app from Nokia collection, you can use this trick and try: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2400715
It probably won't work due to being tied to the display driver, hence it won't work on the Lumia 520.

[Q] Windows Phone 8 + Gear = Possible?

Hi there, does anybody think that it would be possible to get this combination working?
Which functions are supported via Bluetooth? I mean there is the headset function which will work... SMS? Would be really interesting to see the Gear working with Windows Phone!

Will not work as the required Gear Manager is for Android Only. Don't think it will ever work on Windows Phone. There is no headset function to connect the gear to headphones (if that's what your asking also)

I think you got me wrong. The assumption is that someone writes a app like Gear Manager that will handle the data exchange. But since the watch itself is a simple BT device it must be possible to make use of the BT profiles. The question is: which profiles are supported?

Is there any list which BT profiles are supported?
Also.. is there any open source app on Android that works with Windows Phone via BT?

Miracast on rooted XZ1c

Hello there,
I´ll get my new XZ1c for few minutes.
A big question for me is, if I root my phone the functions like screen mirroring or equal (connectivity) getting lost?
Is there a list of all the features that are lost by rooting the phone?
Kind regards,
Chris
I'm not rooted myself, but I'm pretty sure, that screen mirroring will not be affected by rooting. In fact, I've seen somewhere, a post on how to disable the HDCP check when you're rooted, so I can't imagine it not working.
As for a list, I don't think there is one. Camera is one for sure, but I'm not sure which other functions might be affected / degraded.

Thanks @BetaLyte
I know about these worksarounds for HDCP from my other phones.
Miracast is very important for my -> I cast everyday my Phone completly to my Car-Unit.
Yes Camera, but I thought some functions for Screencasting too, but I´m not sure...
Just apply the fix --> https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-xz1-compact/development/oreo-wifidisplay-fix-t3736917

You won't be able to edit it unless it's rooted.

Hey there,
The connection is set now, but
everytime I connect the screen or my car headunit,
Bluetooth - Media is disabled.
Cannot enable it if Screen Mirroring is connected.
Can someone help me?
Kind regards,

General I have an X90 Pro+ in the UK - AMA

Can confirm it's blisteringly fast and the camera is amazing.
Quick updates.....
Not tested yet - android auto.
Can't make work - vibration notifications.
Origin OS, I presume?
Any problems with Google apps?
Yup latest Origin.
Full Google play etc. No Google stuff that doesn't work I've found.
Gpay working too.

Not sure why but my gpay is not working.
Btw it looks like we can't remove some chinese stuff via adb without root .Which is sad.
Yeah I found that with ADB.
So Gpay is odd. The app doesn't work (not ready yet updating error) BUT allowing my bank to add the card to Google pay via its own app worked and allows me to use it.

That's great. I just hope android auto is working too
What's your thoughts on the battery life with the new processor? Does it last a day after heavy usage?
What is the message or error you’re getting when trying to open Google Wallet?

Not ready as updating or something. But after I added a card via my banks app, it will let me pay fine. Just need to choose Google pay in the NFC settings.
But you can’t launch the Wallet app and for example switch between different cards, right? Did you try to reinstall, delete the app data and so on?
Can you check the power consumption of single core and multi core in Geekbench using perfdog? i can lend you an account and tell you how to measure it. It's not difficult.

Cheers mate. Its my only missing piece of info before pulling the trigger on purchasing. Seems to be plenty of reviews out there focusing on the camera quality
Shame about AA and Gpay though. Any other quirks worth mentioning?
Could you make screenshots or a simple screen recording of the camera app and all its features? Especially
Video mode: Supported Resolutions and Framerates
LOG / Cine Video Mode: Supported Resolutions and Framerates
Portrait Video Mode: Supported Resolutions and Framerates
Also: How would you root? Vivo still does not allow bootloader unlocking afaik, and the glitch from X70 and X80 seems to be fixed.
Does the timeline in Google maps work? Thank you
By the way is your phone ringing when you get a call on messenger ? I can't manage to get it ringing . It only vibrates with the screen off .
