Hey guys.
it's been quite a while since i found out the miracast feature in my device gets messed up in custom ROMs.
The official ROM of my Xperia Z3 can cast to my TV at 1080 30fps but this feature is not available in custom ROMs and when i cast my phone to my TV while my phone runs custom ROMs, the output resolution seems to be 480p (BTW i don't have a chromecast hardware).
Now some time later i've bought a new phone (Realme GT Master Edition running Android 11) and this phone has the same issue but in it's official ROM!
I've digged the entire internet but haven't found even ONE forum that covered this issue
Changing screen resolution and DPI is possible via ADB and Root Access, but what about the output resolution of screen mirroring? is there any way to make my phone cast it's screen at 1080p 30 fps minimum?
Any guide will be appreciated.
Both devices (output and input) must be certified or at least:
5.8. Secure Media
If device implementations support secure video output and are capable of supporting secure surfaces, they:
[C-1-1] MUST declare support for Display.FLAG_SECURE.
If device implementations declare support for Display.FLAG_SECURE and support wireless display protocol, they:
[C-2-1] MUST secure the link with a cryptographically strong mechanism such as HDCP 2.x or higher for the displays connected through wireless protocols such as Miracast.
If device implementations declare support for Display.FLAG_SECURE and support wired external display, they:
[C-3-1] MUST support HDCP 1.2 or higher for all external displays connected via a user-accessible wired port.

I hope i properly have understood what you said
So a device needs to have hardware and software support.
Well my Xperia Z3 could cast at 1080p on it's official ROMs so it has the hardware support and the custom ROM is the problem.
My Realme phone shows "HDCP key" as "NOT SUPPORT" in it's software information. so it probably means the lack of HDCP support.
But is there any application or any way to change Miracast's configuration in custom ROMs which are installed on my Z3?
I'm not a developer but i can follow instructions.
With Android 6.0 Marshmallow, released in 2015, Miracast support was dropped.
Unfortunately, you have to test the ROM yourself. More than once I found out that custom ROM android 7.1.2 for many devices had Miracast support (not cast from google, because it's not the same). Also some android 8.1 for few devices and 9.0 for tissot also have Miracast support.
The support of Miracast by Samsung devices looks positive compared to google AOSP. I am using a stock ROM smartphone with android 10 and Miracast works fine with Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter.

I was wondering what would be a DREAM Phone could be like which can be reality with todays tech or 2 yrs from now.
Keeping HTC HD2 Specs as standard, what the other features you would like to see in future Phone of HTC's.
To keep it easy i have some ideas (may be stolen )
Suggest yours (Be realistic - dont suggest a 10X optical zoom cam or a mini drilling machine.)
Video Out analog + digital
USB Host
FM Transmitter
Thermometer + Humudity ctrl would be a plus
Dual Sim in world phone mode
Battery larger than 1500 Mhz
Solar Charger
HD Videos Player
3D Graphics Engine with HW acceleration
Four Hardware buttons near edges for Playing Games
I don't mean to be rude, but your list doesn't get close to the sort of things that I would like to see in ideal a device. In no particular order:
Picture Camera; 3-5mp No more than 5 as too many pixels for a small sensor would render the pictures too noisy. Decent optics and a proper flash (not LED) with manual as well as auto. Digital only zoom would be fine, with the option to specify size/resolution. Able to record HD video with zoom (without assisted lighting).
Front Camera; for voice calls, but more importantly available as a webcam for voip and messaging applications. 640x480 and capable of 25fps. Able to record.
GPS; assisted GPS with voice turn by turn navigation software, downloadable maps of all available territories, capable of walking and cycling modes as well as driving.
Compass; to assist the above standalone as a walking tool and also integrated with the GPS for streetview.
FM radio; not requiring headset as aerial so it can be played through the device speaker(s) or a bluetooth headset. FM transmitter.
Video; able to play HD video and support for accelerated flash videos.
Connectors; HD Video out, stereo out via standard 3.5" jack. USB connector for charging and supporting USB host.
IR; transmitter receiver with programmable (both the IR codes and the button appearance and grouping) multi-device remote control application. Good range transmitter.
Screen; Large resolution (capable of widescreen HD) AMOLED capacitive touch screen with a small capacitive compatible stylus built in to the phone.
Phone; Voice and video phone with integrated Voip. Dual Sim where both can be active (with separate controls for ring, vibrate, and silent) or individually disabled and password protected.
Sound; stereo with decent bass and volume. Full media player including video, audio, and lossless formats.
Networking; GSM and 3G with top current specs and multi-band (ideally able to support voice and data in Europe, Japan, and the USA - although this is a point that can be compromised on given its impracticality). Wireless-n compatible wifi. Tethering (and ethernet) via bluetooth and USB port.
Memory; large program memory (1GB?), large ROM for OS and built-in apps, large storage (16Gb) microSD slot (HCSD high speed).
Processor; 1.5Gb Snapdragon.
Barrery; large capacity >12hrs talk time >240hrs standby >6hrs video playback
OS: Linux kernel with root access android.
Form factor; Like the Touch HD.
Now although close, this is unachievable at present (combining form factor and battery life for example). I strongly doubt anything like it will exist any time soon (despite the wishlist not being that outrageous on an individual item by item basis). It would be ideal, though.
My old SPV e100 had a thermometer!
Id like TV out. I plug the laptop into the tv, but then I cant browse the net! Nightmare!

No Problem Mate : Even i was thinking the same after posting.
However i agree with your ideal device exept i just want it to be running Win Os as i use a pc a lot so hacking / modifing is lot easier.
now coming to the post...
USB host with video out (digital) can completely elminate netbook / notebooks as we can connect a full desktop keybaord adn monitor ...few ppl at my work place hav asked for such technology...
My wishlist for a dream device
2Ghz processor
1Gb RAM
HTC Universal unbeatable form factor
4" VGA pivoting screen
Slim and nice design
A hardware keyboard
5Mpx camera
Front VGA camera
quadband
3G capable in México
Included all the great business features in Rhodium, like conference call
Maybe 2012.........
I want a usb port so i can plug in flash drives and extra hard ware. i also want at least dual micro sd card slots.
and i want it to look similar to the universal but with a screen that nearly takes up the whole lid plus more hard ware buttons.
Based on nexus one hardware (OLED 480*800, good memory, processor), i.e. best features of HD2 and Omnia 2
More hardware buttons (possibly detachable)
3.5mm audio line-in
Compass (good idea trendend)
Dual microsd slots (giving 2*32Gb storage)
USB host (unlikely!)
Software:
Nice new Windows Mobile without the niggles
An audio application 1/10 as good as rockbox
A working version of skype
A proper Onenote mobile, syncing to the cloud
Gaming platform (not that I'd use it, but it would help WM to progress)
Some things I don't see the need for:
FM radio: obsolete with internet?
Video out: I guess this is for showing off to friends, but are you likely to have the right cable to hand?
Thermometer/humidity: does this integrate with anything else the phone does? Otherwise just get an analog one and glue it to your phone!

FM Radio is ubiquitous and of high quality. Still the best option for local news and sport as well as traffic reports. I like FM radio and don't want to carry a separate device. Video out becomes more useful when the device can record video. Shoot video, edit it, show it on a big screen. I'd rather carry a cable than another dedicated device and a cable.
As for temperature/humidity. I'm not particularly interested in it built into the device, because calibration could be a nightmare (given the device itself generates heat). I could be interested in remote devices (that connect via the USB host, perhaps?) with the likes of themocouples, pressure sensors, heart rate monitors, pulse oximeters. That could be useful with the right software....
I'm talking about my dream device. I do not require you to subscribe to my dreams. In return I'll stay out of yours.
Not perfect, but I'd probably settle for Something like this. Except with android.

S400
1. remote control by smart phones
After upgraded into android 4.2 OS, S400 now enables the function that remoted by smart phones. Ur phone is now the remote control for S400! Regardless of age, sex, anybody are able to use this without easily! You are able to type in things by operating the touch panel of smart phones without sitting besides the TV and S400, and use the phone as a game pad. what is more, if the phone has built-in gyroscope, congratulations! u can play motion sensing games by using your phone and S400!
2. Support DLNA, enabling sharing of digital media between multimedia devices
The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a non-profit collaborative trade organization established in June 2003, that is responsible for defining interoperability guidelines to enable sharing of digital media between multimedia devices.It is quite the same with Airplay. After upgrading, S400 now comes with built-in Ehome system, which support DLNA,allowing wireless display. You can share movies, YouTube videos, and anything that’s on your screen on your TV!
3. World premiere android mini pc which supports Miracast.
Miracast is a peer-to-peer wireless screencast standard formed via Wi-Fi Direct connections. UNlike the DLNA, Miracast supports mirrorring function, which means display the screen of smart phone on the HD TV. S400 is the first android mini pc which supports Miracast! All you have to do is open the wifidisplay function in setting. and then ,enjoy it!
4. 10% performances enhancements of android 4.2 OS
The upgrade of S400 has greatly optimized the performance of product. It operates more smoothly than before!
5.malicious apps scan function, stronly secure your device!
Android 4.2 integrated a unique and high-powered security feature into the platform that scans for malicious or potentially harmful codes in apps that are loaded onto a user’s device. With the feature enabled, if you try to install an app that Google has blacklisted, the install will fail. And this will definitely protect the System of S400!
Do you also have 4k video in your camera app after nougat update?But it does not work for me . It says that the SD card is not available.
I don't have it in the sony camera app.

Do you have SD card? Do you have a lot of free space? 4K videos take a lot of memory.
Nope, don't have it. Not in the settings and not in that camera applications thing. I have a 64GB SD-card optimized for 4k video shooting (high sequential write speed), so that should not be a problem.

Hm that is weird. Try searching for latest camera add-ons (in your case 4K) on apkmirror or if it is updated, try removing update. I had problem on my old phone with timeshift burst. When I update add-on and start it I get camera crash, but when I uninstall update (I think in options it said something like "Do you want to replace this app with the factory version?") timeshift burst works perfect.
I don't have that but I just got a xperia tip notification that says "enable double tap to wake". When I touch "take me there" it can't find the related menu of course.
Both 4k and dttw need hardware support.
According to this page about the xa's soc, 4k support is absent.
And since they did not add dttw in previous firmwares, I'm guessing this is not supported either.

As far as I know, dt2w must be supported by kernel not the hardware.

I guess the hardware should provide the possibility to enable touch without enabling display.
With oled screens this doesn't matter, as a black screen uses (almost) no power, but leaving a lcd display on is wasteful.
Of course, kernel support is necessary on top of hardware support.
(Correct me if I'm wrong, I certainly don't claim to be an expert on any of this)

I'm not an Android expert too but in Windows Phone, my Lumia 630 has standard IPS display (no OLED) what I needed to enable dt2w was adding a simple registry key (NT kernel supports dt2w regardless of device but for some reason, Nokia decided to disable it on cheap WP devices).
Also my old Ace 2 used to support dt2w with custom kernel on cm10 or 11 I can't remember exactly (it has standard LCD display)
On both of these devices battery consumption didn't change after dt2w.

I'm not an Android expert too but dt2w is based on kernel feature and use the digitizer to work, OLED or LCD is not the problem. As you probably know I enabled F2FS feature on my XA, the question is the same: why Sony didn't use it out of the box?
For me the answer is because a mid-range device must stay a mid-range device and costumers must have the illusion that there is a big difference with flagship devices.
Yup 4K is not going to be available even with newer updates since Mediatek MT6755 Helio P10 supports up to 1080p 30fps H.264 on video encoding.
I currently suffer a VGA quality hidden USB camera which has been upscaled to 720P, the quality is poor, jerky and the app is chinese and full of bugs.
There seem to be some 1080P units available https://ebay.us/wcwg2H using the Novatek NT96658 chipset and a Sony IMX322 image sensor.
The quality of the video is reasonable on this hardware and the H264 compression is much more efficient than my MJPEG based camera.
The playstore is full of good apps which are compatible with this hardware but they are all wifi based as is this camera. This would mean choosing between internet or dashcam which is not what I'm looking for.
I have come across a few dashcams which can connect to a hotspot like the BlackVue units but they insist are slow over wifi and stop recording when accessing the camera over the app. USB is definitely the answer!
Some dash cams support a USB OTG connection for downloading files and maybe a solution.
Has anyone else come across a decent solution? I don't want my headunit recording from a USB camera due to system overheads. My 4GB PX5 head unit is smooth and snappy and I don't want to lose this.
Any ideas?

What is Android TV support for "irregular" display resolutions?
I cannot find the answer anywhere online so I turn to the experts. I found conflicting answers, most to the negative, but no definitive explanation.
The story:
I recently bought an ultra wide monitor (Samsung S34J550 with 21:9, 3440x1440 WQHD resolution) to work from home that I occasionally would like to use as a smart TV in the living room, without hooking a PC and HDMI cable to it. Currently I can see some Netflix movie in full screen when played from my PC via HDMI to the Samsung monitor. For convenience, I'm looking for a PC-less solution where I would remotely control the device. I'm ready to buy an Amazon Fire Stick 4K or any other Android TV device, or a ChromeCast as long as I can leverage the full ultra width for 21:9 movie playback.
Would any Android stick adapt to a WQHD resolution? Or only 4K sticks? Amazon Fire 4K? Google ChromeCast? None of the above? And if not, what are my options?
Alternatively, a lower 21:9 resolution would still fine with me for movie watching. Like 1/4 of full resolution: 1720x720.
TIA
Same
I have exactly the same situation, 3440x1440 display, and it is annoying to be forced to use a laptop for proper 21:9 watching experience.
Support for wide formats is needed for Android TV.
I am using Xiaomi's Xi Box S as it claimed to have support up to 4K resolutions. Unfortunately only regular 16:9 modes seem to be supported so have to use it at 1080p only.
