Have not found clear info regarding this -
I know that my Note 4 supported Apt-x.
Does anyone know if Note 5 supports the protocol, and if so, do you have an official source?
Apt-x to me is the only thing that makes bluetooth streaming tolerable.
For those who don't know - it eliminates (to my ears) the extremely loss of fidelity you normally get when using bluetooth a2dp type streaming.
Once you hear the difference, you can NEVER go back

It's NOT shown on the http://www.aptx.com/ website. (Odd, as the Edge+ _is_ on there.) I believe it does support AptX, but I don't see any "official" documentation stating it.
I was using Apt-X on my GS4 with a compatible atonishing headset, now I'm using the headset with my Note5 but as you have noticed there is no official document about it while GSM Arena mentioned it in an article beside of lack of apt-x feature in Note5 specs at the same time !
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note5-review-1286p3.php
Now I'm more curious about it but one thing I'd rather to fool myself with is all flagships by Samsung at the release time of Note5 had apt-x, which means there is no technical limitation to have it in Note5 as well, plus I can't recognize any loss comparing to GS4 with my headset
I use my note 5 with several apt-x accessories such as my htc stereo clip adapter.
I would know instantly if it was not apt-x. Rest assured, it supports it
I'm gonna disagree with the above poster. I don't think my Note5 supports aptx. I have a the Sony MDR-1RBT mk2 headset. I also have a Sony NWZ-A17 player. Both Sony devices support aptx. When playing music with the Note5, it just sounds much worse than playing music with the A17. This is using the same music files so same bit rate and format.
I just captured Bluetooth traffic between note 5 and Bose Apt-X Bluetooth receiver. It's All Apt-X.

I've been searching on both the forum and net for suggestions on a bluetooth headset. I mostly see people suggesting a two ear headphone type, which does look nice. Unfortunately, I work with people a lot and wearing such a headset is a big no-no. I'll get complained on in a heartbeat. I would like something that can push music from my phone, take calls, and of course work with an HD2 on Energy roms. No headphone types please just take up one ear.
Any suggestions?

I got this Samsung WEP 870, the sounds quality is not bad consider that price tag is $30+. I used that for music and talk. You can also hook it with the stereo lanyard. Attached the link for reference.

I know I don't want be that guy. I work patrol and have to one ear on my unit's raido at all times. Thus, I wouldn't benefit from wearing stereo headphone in the unit. And just thinking of getting down on a call with headphones covering both ears makes we wonder how fast someone would call in to say, "he was listening to music and it's very disrespectful." It's one of things that sets policy and gets a guy canned. But, like I said before they look sweet.
Too bad your radio doesn't support blue tooth.
plantronics voyager 855 works well with either one ear or with the detachable stereo ear piece.

Get a JAWBONE ERA! look for youtube review about noise assasin...

I had various Jawbones and BlueAnt headsets, most recently the ERA and the Q2.
The Jaewbone ERA was good and fit my ear well even without the ear hook, but the call quality was sometimes not so good. Some people had a hard time hearing me. Not sure why but I had this issue with all the jawbone headsets I've used. Sometimes people tell me it sounds great and then their are some that can hear me. I did get complaints about wind if it was windy. It may work great with the Note II don't know I lost it before I got my Note II.
The BlueAnt Q2 fit's a bit loose in my ear and requires I use the ear hook. But the overall call quality is been better for me. Another feature I like it that it downloads you phone book and can tell you who's calling (if their in contact). This feature workes great with my Note II, on my S2 it did not, though I was running a custom ROM and that my have caused it. The Jawbone only let you set up 10 contacts to readout their names. Wind can also be an issue with the Q2 (as with every headset I've ever tried including the Jawbone).
Update: just noticed the Q2 won't announce callers in my contact list now that I'm running a custom ROM.
Hi fellas,
Just want to ask some advice on what particular DAC/Headset Amp is best for our device.
Is Fiio K1 a good fit? By the way, I'm using a SkullCandy Ink'd 2.0.
Tia for the reply.

Any FiiO will work really, I have the E18 and that's been working out great, I've recently upgraded to an iFi amp/dac combo so am interested to see/hear the difference, I currently have/use the E18 on the PC and with Tidal HiFi...wow, sonic bliss.

I concur. I have an old skool FiiO E11. Small footprint and works well.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/usb-audio-t3336776
In all honesty with skull candy headphones, pretty much pick anything supported and use it (audio snob and despise skull candy as an FYI)
I have used the Soundblaster E3 https://www.amazon.com/Creative-Portable-Headphone-Amplifier-Bluetooth/dp/B00J79KNPM
for the Past 8 months works very well for running my Etymotic ER4 earphones. Has the Bluetooth as well as plugging in to my Galaxy S7E via USB as a DAC/Amp.... I use Neutron
http://neutronmp.com/ as my music player on the phone which has a direct USB driver for a pure audio experience. Pictured are the setting screens for Neutron that show the hardware options while using the E3 as the external DAC... Hope you find the perfect audio experience.

I'm using the Fiio Q1 and love it, I use it for my PC, my laptop and my phone. The battery life is great as well as delivering a stellar amplification (IMO). Can't recommend it enough!
Some times used my ifi DSD Nano (original Without Bluetooth) with my havi b3 pro 1 and the S7 edge. But most of the Time i use the havi with the xduuo x2 DAP on the Go.

Description
Aerial TV brings DVB-T and DVB-T2 to Android using the cheap RTL2832 dongles. No root required.
If you already own an RTL-SDR dongle with the RTL2832 frontend then you are ready to go. Just plug it in with USB OTG cable and follow the on-screen instructions.
These dongles are easy to find online and cost around €10-€15. Those are the same dongles used for SDR. In case of Aerial TV the dongles are actually used in their native TV mode.
Pricing
This app is free to try and gives you 30 minutes of TV viewing during the trial period. After the trial period elapses you can still listen to radio for free.
Compatible devices
All RTL-SDR dongles should work fine with the app. For comprehensive list, check out my previous project's XDA thread: SDR Touch
Availability
The app is only available in countries that have DVB-T or DVB-T2 broadcasts. This means that for example, the app can't be downloaded in the USA.
Feedback
Any Feedback is welcome! I have released the app just recently so it still has some missing features (such as EPG, subtitles, etc.) I would like to build up a Q&A section here so feel free to contribute!

This is a great question
The Live Channels app is currently only available for a very small number of TV boxes. This means that more customers can benefit from Aerial TV than Live Channels.
For this reason I will concentrate working on Aerial TV for the time being. If Google extends support for Live Channels for more Android devices, I will certainly consider creating a plugin.
Furthermore I am unsure how Live Channels works. It is possible that Google is using native kernel support for USB dongles in which case RTL-SDRs are probably already supported.

Amazon Prime Video only offers SD video streaming/downloading to me (new 8.0" model SM-T719, latest firmware).
Is this a common issue to the Galaxy Tab S2 or is there any known workaround (like the modified Netflix APK that is circulating here)?
I'm confused because various XDA members report successful HD playback with older Samsung tablets..
Thanks!

I get HD (720P) on mine. As do I on Netflix. No idea what the problem could be here. Maybe it's a regional restriction?
Do you have the SM-T719 ("2016 model" with Qualcomm chip) or the older one with Exynos chip?
Thanks!
Screenshot below to illustrate what I mean -- do you get the message that "HD purchases will play in SD on this device" or does it actually offer to play in HD?

I have the 719.
Check your connection speed with a 'net speed checker - some of these places "auto-tune" their delivery to match your download speeds (to stop whiners complaining about buffering and stutter).
My TV does the same if the connect speed drops below 10 MBits... (But I found a way to ensure it connects at the max (for the distance) of about 32)
Not saying it IS the cause... but you could rule it out by doing a check.
