improving the connectivity of htc connect/sony/samsung push to wifi device - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So on my xperia sp the sony walkman has a feature that you can send the playback to a wifi speaker which is great. Trouble is it isn't very good on the rom i am using which is a cut down rom for music player purposes only. Is there any tool or update to make this process work better..... it would be great if you could port htc connect to the xperia sp

X1 with HBH-DS980 / HBH-DS970

have anyone tried X1 with HBH-DS980 or HBH-DS970?
can you see the sound track titles on the headset display ?
regards
I will try on Tue w/980
Hi,
I own the HBH-DS970. Everything you're asking for is working, but only with the Windows Media Player, not with the Media Pannel itself.
I own it already a long time, so it's quite ok, but i wouldn't buy it specialy for the X1, it's realy not working too good.
Cheers
980 works fine with the X1 but I don't get song titles on the headset. Everything else seems fine.
I have the DS980 and have only tried it with the Media Panel so far. It only seems to work as a Headset only, and no AVRCP functions (no track info, no remote control). The audio quality is pretty good.
I will try it out with the Windows Media Player later after work and see if any difference.
Edit - no joy. Whether in the Media Panel or Windows media player, I only get Wireless Headset service. No A2DP, no AVRCP. This is quite bad. These services where all working perfectly in my SE P1i.

You probably missing something. I tried Sony DS-205, DS980 and JVC BT-1. Both A2DP and AVRCP work on Coreplayer ( I believe WMP too).
As sevans21 points out, song title w/ 980 is not working on x1
Yes, I can confirm now that Windows Media Player has A2DP and AVRCP (except track info). Media Panel has A2DP only. My DS980 has been working fine thus far.
I was intending to start this discussion amongst you guys as well --- I have the HBH-DS980 and have been frustrated regarding my experience using the X1 with it.
Coming from a SE K850i, the HBH-DS980 obviously had all features enabled, including remote control, track title display, and clock. Now, that OLED display is basically useless!
AVRCP does work in Windows Media Player.
AVRCP does NOT work in the Media Panel --- Is this fixable? Can any of you awesome devs work this kink out?
The track title display not working is a huge let-down. I was worried about this while X1 was in development, thinking it would be overlooked. When we heard the X1 would use SE's bluetooth stack I figured maybe itll work, but sure enough -- no dice.
I hope that SE will fix this in their next firmware update, or at least Media Xperiance Panel 2.0.
I heard that there is supposed to be a firmware update due by end Nov 2008, but no confirmation on this.
Does Sony Ericsson have any way to report a defect to their support so that it might be passed onto the development team? Probably not, but it might be nice if they miss this bug...
I have already filed a report via their X1 Support line. They have replied that they have sent my report to the development team.
Any new news on this? I have been waiting for a while... Really starting regret paying $1200+ for the Xperia.
The guy developing SmartWatchM was working on a fix but he had run into a small problem, Im not sure if he worked past it.
You can ask him for an update in this thread, I posted in there a few weeks ago:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=362218&page=154
I thought i'd let you guys know,
I have the X1 and a HD, and a HBH ds980
My ds980 works better and track updown etc play pause, and all the rest much better on the HD than the X1.
X1 is real hit and miss...
Stupid considering that both are Sony (by name)
but the fact that both are HTC derived..and the HD works better is a real stinker.
I did try the whole smartwatch thing... but I got a link up entering the mac entry manually.. but i still had no joy.
I would love for this to be functional.. as the display on the sony watch is no different in size and res to that of the ds980
hopefully success will be had soon.

Bluetooth Accessories

Hi, I have just updated to version 434 after a little accident with my /data partition. I have a MW600 Bluetooth headset with OLED screen to display caller and track details. On my Xperia S the bluetooth stack in android ICS didn't support track text ( an android issue). Now I tried this headset when I got my Xperia Z too but am sure track text still didn't work with the Z. So after update i repaired all my bluetooth devices and to my surprise the track text now displays! (only tried this in the Walkman app) I'm quite happy this worked so seeing as I was on a roll i decided to try my Microsoft Bluetooth mouse and pair it up with the Z too. This also works perfectly! (never worked before on previous devices)
Is this a JB feature that these devices now work or was it something in the latest update?
Any ideas?

Any one got an MW600 and Xperia Z on ver. 350 can confirm this?

Hi,
I have (mw600 and 350fw). I've tried and it has showed song's name. But I couldn't use my phone to making calls. So I haven't tried caller ids yet.

Thanks,
They must have added the required items to the bluetooth stack on jelly beans so. Still noce to know though.

[Q] External Microphone + lgcamera not working

I just switched to Xperia Z from my old Xperia ray. On the old phone, I filmed a couple of clips at concerts, using lgcamera and an external microphone (Edutige i-Microphone EIM-004), which worked fine.
Now, on the Xperia Z I wanted to do the same, but no matter which audio settings I use in lgcamera, it appears thet the phone keeps using the internal microphone, which leaves the sound garbled and unusable.
Is there any way to use lgcamera (or even another video camera app) on the Xperia Z with an external microphone?
My specs:
Phone: Xperia Z, out of the box (T-Mobile Germany)
Android version: 4.2.2
lgcamera version 6.4
Microphone: Edutige i-Microphone EIM-004
Any help is much appreciated! :cyclops:
I am also interested in this as I cannot use external Mic in any apps..

Throw problem with sony sa-ns410

I have just got myself a sony sa-ns410 speaker http://www.sony.co.uk/product/wireless-speakers/sa-ns410 and my z is not being very nice with 'throwing' music to it, the z is on the rooted C&J rom so not sure if its a problem with that or its just the 4.3 rom in general. the throw icon appears in walkman briefly, then disappears, and if i try to initiate a throw from the quick settings on the notification panel, it doesnt 'see' the speaker. annoyingly, it works perfect from my old xperia s.
So, does anyone else have a similar setup/problem? is it the C&J rom? is it root? or is it the 4.3 rom?
Hi,
Same problem for me too. I own a 310 and 510 wireless Sony speaker. In 1 of 10 attempts it works for me to throw music from walkman to the speaker. Most they do not even appear in walkman app. I am on existenz ultra rom v5 rooted. I am facing this problem even on Stock rom 4.3.
I flashed back to 4.2.2 Throwing is no problem. The speakers appear also in walkman as soon as i opened the app.
My wife owns also an XperiaZ - Same problem. She is on Stock rom 4.3 unrooted.
I hope Sony will fix this problem soon.

It's not just me then! Also, are you supposed to be able to throw any audio to the speaker? e.g. I have an Internet radio app, in my car, when the. phone is paired to my stereo, all audio goes to the radio. Can you do the same with the wifi speaker, or is it only from within certain apps like Walkman?
