[Q] Av Cabble

Hi can anyone help me with something.
I have an galxy s3, and i want an rca,s-video(with 3 outputs 2X audio L R and 1 Video) cabble for my navigation in the car, the navi in the car is kinda of old and uses rca so i cant use Hdmi.Can someone tell me what cabble i can use? ty verry much

I've never seen anything like that. Good luck finding it.
You could possibly try using an HDMI to analog converter if any such thing exists.
Can't guarantee it would work, even if you somehow fangled it together.
Probably just time to upgrade your car stereo nav system.
Look into the Pioneer App Radio 2. There is an app you can buy that will mirror whatever is on your GS3 onto the Pioneer's LCD screen and it's touch capable. It uses HDMI from the GS3 into the Pioneer.
About $350 on eBay for the Pioneer.

well this is a bummer ty allthough, i've tryd with nokia ca-75u cabble but nothing i will search maybe i will find something, because 350 $ are too much given that i ve bought the navi couple of months ago.
if someone did it please tell me,TY

This was interesting. I'd never heard of it before.
Sounds like the International GS3 can do video output through the headphone jack? LOL wtf.

Check it out though. Who knows....

Also, try googling the phrase "composite video". That is what the type of video connection you're referring to is correctly termed as.

[Q] Fire TV vs Mini android box/stick/dongle with RK3188/RK3288

I've searched online and haven't had much luck finding a comparison of a rooted fire TV box and the many available android HDMI sticks/dongles/boxes that are based on the RK3188/RK3288 SOC platform.
I plan on cutting the cord from my cable company next month and want the best performance and app compatibility, I've found great deals on both options, but would like some feedback about the pros and cons of each.
If anyone has any helpful insight it would be gratefully appreciated!

The stick devices have unusable wifi and Bluetooth. I used a usb to Ethernet dongle and the device is cheaply made and overheats.sits in a drawer now. Not sure of box devices. Happy with ftv for 4 months now

Yeah I know the earler versions of the sticks had wifi issues but from what I have read the latest versions have resolved all of those issues.
Apparently I can't post links yet, but if you google CS928 RK3288 you will see which box I am considering.

Agreed. Mk3s and mk4 with mk4 based on rk3188. Riko magic remote purchased too. Remote came broken and Alibaba had 3 day return policy and I went away for weekend. and rikomagic people did not answer. 3 products purchased and complete disgust with that name brand. Buyer beware

Well you know what they say... you get what you pay for. This is cheap Chinese crap made with cheap Chinese garbage processors.

Okay thanks for the info. Riko Magic is not the brand I am considering RK3188/RK3288 are made by RockChip and are just the SOC (system on a chip) component of the overall device. The box I am considering had nothing at all to do with Riko Magic.
What I am really interested in is the performance difference in the Fire TV's Qualcomm Quad Core Krait 300 CPU and the Quad-Core Cortex-A17 CPU found in the RK3288 SOC and how they perform in the Android OS environment.

Well I can get the Fire TV for about half the price as the CS928 so would that mean the Fire TV is worse?

I just found one for $110 (http://dealsprime.com/mini-pc/cs928-android-4-4-tv-box.html). I'm not quite sure how that's twice as much... But the statement not only applies to actual price but the fact that you are either buying a quality product from an American company or some crap slapped together by some fly by night chinese company.

Yeah I can get a Fire TV for about $55 with a coupon. I'm not really concerned about the country of origin as opposed to the performance of the components. Thanks for your opinion, but I am looking for someone who might have first hand knowledge/experience with these two exact products.

I have the CS918S set top with the built in Camera and it is a solid performer. I also have a couple UG007B that work perfect and they are half the price of the FTV.
Even with good performance they still can't compete with the hardware in the FTV.
But with the A31 and RK3188 is you can easily find or make a ROM or make your own. I have done a couple of the sticks for friends with modified boot images and deodexed rooted systems.

I bought a minix X8-H at the same time that I bought a FireTV, one box for me and one for my folks. Overall it's a very nice unit and has been rock solid, which is better then my past experiences with the chinese boxes. It's not as buttery smooth as the FTV but it's more then adequate. Having 3 USB ports and an airmouse out of the box is nice as well.
The only big gap I found between the two is that the Netflix performance on FTV is far better. Even with many tweaks I could never get HD working on the Minix. That was enough for me to go with FireTV in the end.

I tried the Keedox® M8 Amlogic S802 Quad Core Cortex A9r4 2.0GHz. On paper it looks like it should compare well and was $85 at the same time the fire TV was on sale for the same. The M8 just wasn't as smooth so I went with the fireTV and returned the M8.

Qualcomm Krait300 (snapdragon600)/Areno320 processors beat Rockchip3188/Mali400 hands down.
In 3D performance up to 3 times faster, in general use little over half as fast as the FireTV.
All the top phones and tablets are based on nextgen snapdragon 800 or sgx in different variations.
It clearly seems to be the top SoC along with SGX(or apple)/PowerVR.
It also gives most performance per watt, RockChip isent really designed the same way that's why you don't see them in phones/tablets they use more power and run hotter.
.
Btw. I tested this with a few benmarking tools such as linpack, 3dmark, etc
Another strong appeal is feel, And it's first android box i've been able to call: a firm stable android-streaming platform. Ofcause it also has a very steady background with big key players and developers.

dont have a rk3288, but i have a rk3188 (and a rk3088).. vs firetv there is no competition, firetv wins in all aspects. hopefully they made huge improvements on rk3288 but i doubt it will be worth the usual chinese problems (bad antenas, bad roms, faulty hardware, no support, misleading hardware (selling you a rk3188 but actually getting a rk3188T which is a crappier made soc) etc...)
plus the firetv is actually cheaper (guess they want to buy the market XD )

OnePlus One and HDMI - MHL, Slimport, none?

Does anyone know if the OPO supports HDMI output either via MHL or SlimPort?
I have a monoprice MHL 2.0 adapter that used to work with my LG phone. Does not seem to work with my OnePlus. I am wondering if it supports SlimPort before I go out and buy one.

Good question

it was confirmed that the oneplus one does not support Mhl or Slim Port, only miracast unfortunately.

****

Still worth it though

The Oneplus one does not even have a ir thingy correct?

I asked a tech support about the TV out and screen mirroring and this was his reply
thank you for contacting the Technical Support of ONE PLUS, I apologize for the inconvenience caused to you. TV OUT is supported through some 3rd party cables. Screen mirroring is also supported by ONE.
Should you require any further information, Please do let me know

Tried three different MHL adapters. None worked with my 1+1.

I have two MHL adapters from Monoprice, I will try them later tonight when I get home and report back.
I have MHL to HDMI with RCP/CEC Android 4.0+ - Black (http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=108&cp_id=10833&cs_id=1083314&p_id=10022&seq=1&format=2) and this one Micro USB to HDMI® MHL Adapter - Black (http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=108&cp_id=10833&cs_id=1083314&p_id=8675&seq=1&format=2)

I know it doesn't have MHL, because it doesn't work with mine. I am wondering if it works with Slimport.

Has anyone tried Miracast? http://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B00HFAEBWG
I want to get it but just wondering if anyone tried it.

No TV out in OPO over the USB connector! Only wireless with miracast and rooted with chromecast too

Samsung all share cast works too. Have it on my car for my appradio 3. The only problem is, I havnet figured out how to get out of app radio mode short of pulling the HDMI cable.
Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk

Yes Miracast does work to Chromecast. Im rooted and running that withkut any problems. Still have to test out those MHL adapters.

Today I will receive my One and I will test screen mirroring with Roku 3.

Multitasking/RAM

You're busy and don't have time to wait, which is why you need to stop reading this thread and get back to organizing your Pogs. Rate this thread to express how the Nextbit Robin performs when multitasking. A higher rating indicates that the Nextbit Robin keeps many apps in memory so that they don't need to reload, and that when moving between apps, transitions are smooth and performance is excellent.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Pretty good multitasking speed actually. That extra GB of RAM really sets it apart from 2GB phones like the 5/5x

I'm honestly not sure as I got a Robin just today (it's a great deal!), but from what I see, it used to be fairly active, but is slowly dieing. There's more and more "unofficial" ports, threads seem to be quieting down a bit, slower developments...
But then again, like I said, I'm new here, and this is just what I noticed in my brief time here.
Oh and yeah this is the wrong thread.

Well, if you buy the Nextbit Robin, it comes with a USB Type-C cable, all you need is a power brick to plug into the wall. I'm just using the one I got from my old phone. Honestly I don't know how wall charging would work in the EU since I've never traveled outside the US.
Edit: As long as the charger you buy is a Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 or greater charger it will Quick Charge. Just be sure it's a certified one since there are dozens of knock offs.
Also, this will most likely not be a problem, but make sure you don't get one that uses a different Quick Charge technology like OnePlus's Dash charger.

Actually, that one's perfect. Aukey is a reputable brand and their Chargers are amazing. The one you chose will definitely Quick Charge the Nextbit Robin at the maximum speed.
Also, don't forget, Quick Charge 2.0 is backwards compatible with the original QC and regular Chargers so you can charge any phone with that charger.

Technically, yes, but considering in the EU you have laws that specifically grant a longer Warrenty to the buyer, I don't think it applies in that case.
There really should be something like this in the US.

How to connect to a HDMI projector/screen? What adaptors/leads required?

Hi i'm having problems finding an adaptor or lead (or both) that i can use to connect my Xioami A2 lite to a standard HDMI port. Are there any adaptors that are definitely compatible? Thanks

Mi a2 lite to TV over HDMİ is İMPOSSİBLE .
Only you can use Miracast hdmi dongle which is wireless.
here is the example :

Ah damn. Thanks for the reply. I wanted to connect the phone straight to a projector. I wonder is it at all possible to send my phone screen to my laptop? I could then use the projector from the laptop.

You can use 3rd party Phone screen mirroring to pc Apps. But they are not great :/ lower resulation and tons of lags

This is the tutorial, but you need HDMI supported projector
