Hi everyone,
I just got my 5t. So I was wondering if maybe the HD update is already installed on my phone as it's factory fresh. How can I check?
Thanks guys
Go to the Play Store and use the app DRM Info. If Widevine is L1 you have the update. If it's L3 you can't use HD for DRM content

With Widevine L1 you can stream HD content e.g. from Netflix or Amazon Prime. L3 only allows SD resolution (576p instead of 720p or higher).

Higher resolution of streaming in Netflix and apps. It's a waste of time really as you can hardly notice the difference anyway.
Presume it's hardware related then

I did 4k and HD on youtube using app and from UC browser as well as Instagram. All is good while on phone albeit not HD or video calling.
Dash 1 phone, ear buds or speakerphone did not matter.

That is a not, dash 2.
So this may only apply to dash ? 2 phones.
How dees it play on phone calls that are not video or not HD?
It's still unclear and choppy especially at lower volumes, but this is only an issue when I use my earphones and watch a video while on talking on a regular phone call

My regular call test was on wifi, vzw 4G is at least 2 or more times my wifi speed.
Try performing wipe cache partition!
Is there any chance to record 1080p 60fps video with z play ?
as recently launched g5 plus do this which also has same 625 processor like z play
These are your stock video options on z play.

I was considering buying this phone or the mi 8, but I would like to ask users here regarding Xiaomi support about this feature,
Does Mi MIx 2 / 2S with latest firmware update support the wide vine level 1? this is needed in order to stream Netflix in HD,
You can check this using the DRM Info app on the play store,
Thanks in advances

My bootloader is unlocked so not sure if that will affect anything, I know on Sony phones the widevine is affected when its unlocked.

I see, I do plan to unlock the boot loader to root the phone, thanks anyway
Can someone with the device run DRM Info from the play store and report back the level. L1 vs L3. I am curious if this will be capable of 1080p netflix (and amazon video) which requires L1. I appreciate your reply. Thanks
Here's a screenshot from LineageOS 15.1.

Thank you! So for the stock rom its L1 with HDCP 2.1, custom roms tooks like it drops to L3.
meaning- stock it can do HD netflix and Prime video
Just noticed this in Netflix app. It seems my S20 Ultra isn't capable of playing Netflix in 4k hdr and is capped to SD. Screenshot is from Netflix. Does anyone else have this issue too?
S20 ultra can only output 1440p. It wouldn't stream in 4k. That being said it should be doing 1440p or 1080 at the least.

FHD is 1080P, QHD is 1440, UHD is 4k
Your DRM is L3. Are you rooted ? If so, there is nothing you can do to go back widevine L1 as I know.
It might not be your phone. There were several reports back in March that Netflix (and other streaming services) would be temporarily capping their streaming quality to SD. Whether this is the case now I don't know for sure. I just offer it as a possible explanation.

I was about to say the same thing - it should say "VP9 (Secure)" and "AVC-High (Secure)" - the phone's security is likely flagging as unsecure and copy protection is locking the resolution to SD.
In other words, for some reason Knox is telling Netflix you messed with it.
Mine says Full HD
Whats weird is snowpiercer is available in HDR but Dark is supposed to be UHD but is only available in HD, i would have thought that it would be HDR at least.
I assuming HDR is higher than HD or am i wrong?

HDR = 4K + HDR
UHD = 4k + SDR
On Netflix anyway. Some of the times... They make it confusing. You can get uhd 4k with dolby vision which is also hdr but different to hdr10

My other issue is Did netflix reduce data/quality based on Our Wonderful Government here in Australia requesting restrictions. What may be available in higher resolution might be restricted.
https://amp.theguardian.com/media/2...an-to-reduce-data-to-avoid-broadband-overload
I would check but I'm rooted. My TV plays Netflix in the correct resolution so who knows
Netflix on my S20 Ultra on DBT, 96Hz & Full HD says the following:
Incidentally Stan is the same Breaking Bad is supposed to be 4KUHD however it is only available to me in HD
