[Q] is this the tab for me?

I have a slightly odd list of needs from an android tab and was wondering if the tf700 will meet them;
line in recording of audio
usb for cat5 adapter https://sites.google.com/site/bobjgear/USB-Aapter
optionof decent keyboard dock
rootable
decent screen and manufactor rom updates
im interested in the cat5 especially as i cant use wifi at work, sadly so my options are limited...
thanks for your help and feedback, hows this tab without the keyboard?
cheers, andy

Why not use one of these? I use it all the time when I'm in hotels that don't have wireless.

This I haven't been able to test. Someone else might be able to answer it.

The dock belongs with the tab. It's a fully functional one. (even to navigate.)

Bit tricky, but it can be done.

The screen is matched only by the Retina display. Best Android screen on the market. We've had 4 or 5 updates so far, including JB as one of the first non-Google companies.

I have some friends that work for the government and their in the same boat as you. They aren't even allowed to use wireless when their traveling and it's available.

Thanks for this, sounds good. Only thing left to work out is line in then i guess, if someone could test this for me it would be really helpful. Its the last piece of the puzzle i think.
One other question, i take it the only "pairing" the tablet does with the keyboard is just being plugged in? The reason i ask is that if i buy a couple of tablets and keyboards (me and the mrs) can we just swap the keyboards round without any pairing faff?

As far as I know, you can interchange the docks. There's a driver for it installed in Android from the start. There's no personalized settings or anything stored in the dock itself. Plug and Play.

If you are located outside the US in Europe this would be your answer.
If you're a US user then your stuck with the complex USB adapter scenario it seems.

perfect, that actually looks just what im after, simple easy and with cat5 in built. shame it doesnt have line in then it really would be ideal!
edit: just need to find someone that will actually supply it to me now!

Connect my second phone to smartwatch 2

How to connect my second phone to smartwatch2?

If I have understood this right it's not possible to connect with 2 phones. It's possible but you have to reset the watch and pair it with the other phone, everytime you switch between phones.

When I changed my phone I made a backup from the first, restore on the new and re-paired the SW2 on new phone. I keep all my app, config and data.
So with same app on 2 phone, you can change from one to another no ? maybe not so simple but possible.

I have two phones, u mean every time im using I have to reset the watch??

thats what i have had to do.

Yes and no. Your reset the watch, but your actual settings for apps and all are in the phone. So each phone can have different smartwatch apps installed and they'll all work separately.
But you can't be connected to both at the same time.

If you are try to let SW2 receive notification from two of your phone, you can try Notify My Android which can push second phone's notification to main phone.

Pretty nonsense since every bluetooth headset from sony can pair with two phones/tablet (not at the same time, obviously).
Hope they will fix with an update.

Erm. Most people use a single phone? This smart watch is meant to be used with a phone?

Get yourself a dual-sim phone if its such a big deal.

Xiaomi and Huawei both have good ones. And if you're complaining that those aren't 'power house' enough go get a HTC One M8 dual-sim if you can find one. Or an S4 Dual Sim.
Your smartwatch 2 can do the same, effectively. You just can't connect with two phones at the same time.

Sony bluetooth headsets like the HBH-DS970 and the MW600 can connect to 2 or more phones, but to do that, you have to switch profiles on the headset (with a switch or setting)
the SW2 doesn't have that profile switch and therefor cannot support 2 phones
i doubt it's an 'issue' they will fix, good luck asking Sony

Then just re-pair when you switch phones. My wife sometimes uses my watch, so she installs whatever apps she wants, then when I pass the watch to her she just does a reset and re-pair, works fine.
Its not functionally any different from how the MN2 works.
And please, what's with the exclamation marks?

[Q] M2 has MHL?

I wish to buy the Xperia M2, but I have a doubt: it has MHL?
I searched several websites, some say yes, others no. I found nothing in the white paper of M2. Someone who has the smartphone can tell me?
Anyway, thanks!

Nobody?

If that is playing the screen on a Monitor via USB, then no. Only casting via wifi.

Ok... Seems like Sony puts only "special" functions on the best smartphones.

Frankly speaking I'd not get it again. The best feature is the battery life. Other than that, everything else is yawn. And for a business phone there is too much eye-candy.

Can the OnePlus One play audio using microUSB port?

As title states, is it possible instead to use the lineout to plug into my car audio?

That depends on how your car plays audio from the device. Many cars with microUsb either expect a mountable external hard drive (no current Android phone will support that mode) or access the phone through MTP mode to find and play audio files. There are other methods too however (like USB sound card - but I'm not sure that works across all phones and drivers)

I have been able to plug in all of my Android phones from the headphone jack to the stereo system with an aux cable, so this won't be any different.

Wow, brilliant indeed. The thing is, if you could use the USB port, you could control the resources from an external player. HUGE DIFFERENCE.

Can I please ask what car player will recognize OnePlus One and be able to control it? That would be interesting.
Thanks

The thing is that none of the Android phones are able to work as external hard drive so none of the audioplayers I know would recognize oneplus one to control it. But my alpine receiver is able to control it connected via Bluetooth.

That's not true, see my #2 post. There are many cars supporting MTP mode. As for usb soundcards;
I don't own a USB-soundcard so I can't test if the standard kernel supports such a mode. But if not, it should not be terribly hard to make a custom kernel load the necessary drivers if they exist.

No need to get all offensive, we are all grown-up here after all. Or at least supposed to act that way.

If you claim that no car-radio (you know of) is capable of accessing/handling the OPO that implicitely means that you either didn't know/forgot about MTP or thought it unusuable for the OnePlus.

uhhh, except the method you are using is completely different than USB. USB is far superior in controlling but also audio quality......

Jack adapter without DAC

Hi! Im using this phone for like few days, of course i bought 3.5mm adaptee, becouse its necessery if you want jack in this phone, and then i realized, its not working.{accessory not supported)
I searched internet and found some kind of solution, using audio root app, but this isnt satysfing me.
I would want it to work without this app, so is there any option to get this no DAC adapter working? Any app, modification or root?

No. I bought a third party one also and returned it. You won't be able to make it work. Sorry. Only supports the official htc one.

I ordered one has D/A built in.
Stay tuned

Actually, I have three plus two from HTC.
I'd prefer generic because it works with laptop too, and the sound is a bit clearer than HTC one with 192kbps ogg vorbis.

Can anyone confirm if third party DACs will work on this phone? I'm seeing a lot of info saying only the HTC one works
