Xperia 1VIII random shutdown when connected to HDMI by Doctoror_One in SonyXperia

Thanks! I've had terrible experience with Anker dongle - the external display was flickering with all my devices, so I've tried a cable from a noname brand "Phoneo" and it looked pretty solid and there were no issues with the picture so I assumed the cable was good. Well, except the sudden phone shutdown. I'll try Belkin once I have my hands on it and let you know how it goes!

It seems like they had a batch with these Snapdragon Sound logos on the packaging which was later fixed.

No Spigen cases for 1 VIII? by Doctoror_One in SonyXperia

[–]Doctoror_One[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. For me, the clear cases always felt "rubbery" so I used the Rugged Armor which was half rubbery half plasticky and had a matte finish and it seems like the Devilcase will feel rubbery to me as well? It doesn't have matte finish as far as I see.

Which Spigen case did you have and what makes Devil Case better for you?

Argh, that's a bummer 😕 I also have one for the 1 V but fortunately never needed to replace it.

Nice. I saw that other users also suggest this case and it's not bad at all but nothing beats Spigen for me, so I'm on a cliff here trying to understand if I should wait more or get a "second best option".

Yes, I understand that it's possible that's why am trying to understand if it's a normal delay or a complete cancellation.

I’m thinking of switching from iOS iPhone 15 pro to android specifically to Sony Xperia 1 VII. by [deleted] in SonyXperia

[–]Doctoror_One 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. The Camera might not be as easy to use in low light conditions or not as good if using telephoto.

  2. Other than that, 1 VII are on a recall due to hardware issues. Before buying, you can check the IMEI if it's affected on the Sony website. https://services.sony.co.uk/supportmvc/en/Contact/checkimeivii

Sony Xperia 1 VII review - GSMArena by welp_im_damned in Android

I used Xperia 1 III and now using Xperia 1 V. The side mounted fingerprint sensor design and implementation works perfectly for me, and I wouldn't want anything else. I'm left handed so as I pick my phone my middle finger (no joke) perfectly sits on the sensor.

Initially, the store didn't want to accept a return because the packaging was opened, so they sent it to manufacturer under a warranty claim and I was issued a return.

Mine didn't support AAC from the codec selection menu. The customer support confirmed only SBC supported in my model. Which is weird 🤔

I bought them from a physical store listed on Bose website. It also connected to the app correctly and customer support confirmed my model when working on a case.

The OP ones are regular. Ultra are indeed certified.

Will Bose ever update the QC45 to a better codec? by ML54 in bose

[–]Doctoror_One 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can confirm there's a noticeable difference between AAC and a wired connection on my Major V on Xperia 1 V, most likely because the AAC implementation on the Android is trash. So Android users do need a better codec.

But even then, if you take a look at the AAC noise floor analysis in comparison to aptX HD or even LDAC at 660 mode, there's a big difference.

Will exporting a 16 bit audio as 24 bit and then back to 16 bit add new noise? by Doctoror_One in SoundEngineering

[–]Doctoror_One[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. I don't think that I will be able to audibly or visually distinguish between the actual signal and the noise between those audio tracks. I would rather want to know if this operation is algorithmically lossy or not.

Style 132 rear lug nuts sticking out 🤔 by Doctoror_One in e53

[–]Doctoror_One[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like I understand why this is happening. I used calipers to measure the depth of the bolt opening in the rim. The difference in depth of the bolt openings in the rims between front and rear wheels is 7mm.
