ANT+? - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Would anyone with an M8 be able to say whether or not they have ANT+ connectivity?
I know the spec sheets don't mention it. I also know of some other handsets which had ANT+ even though it wasn't shown in the spec sheets.
I know there won't be many others like me but it is a kind of deal breaker for me. Bluetooth 4 doesn't quite hack it when trying to sync to multiple devices.

[Q] Would this be useful at all to us?

It would fit, obviously, but would there be any possiblity of using this for doing video out or screen mirroring or anything?
It sure would be cool to be able to play HD video recorded on the phone, on your HDTV at home. The thing is, I don't think the MT4G has the ability to output video through the micro USB. If I'm wrong, that'd be awesome though.
It says Galaxy S. Samsung wired their microUSBs to be able to do this. HTC did not.

To be honest I didn't really know anything about these cables. I was just wondering if our phones were capable of using these to any capacity.

HTC MediaLink worth it?

I'm an AT&T US One X owner and am wondering if the MediaLink is worth a purchase. I'm seeing some mixed results in the other thread but this is definitely a big part of owning an HTC One phone.

only one that could really answer that is you, i mean having it for just having it or get some real use out of it in which case there are better, cheaper options out there.

want to put your content on a bigger screen? watch movies on a bigger screen? show off your apps and features on a big screen? If your answer is yes to one or all of these then it is worth it. otherwise don't bother
Only reason I'm asking is because some people reported that its buggy and doesn't work 100% correctly.

Actually, it's not much of a feature of the One Range, and I couldn't justify paying over £20 for it let alone £70, I just use my HDMI cable and adapter
HTC Media Link HD - First Look
Love it .
I've just ordered the eu version from amazon UK for £54 which I think is a fairer price. The earlier model is only £10 cheaper. £70 was way over the top for this device when you consider how much you have already spent on the device

I don't know if you've read my review, but I find it useful. I've actually found myself streaming music to my av center through my tv when my pc is off. Very easy and like other users have said, the rest of your media on a big screen is fantastic and easy and wireless! £54 is a great price too I think it's definitely worth that much.
Personally i would buy a device that works with DLNA for any device, so not necessarily the HTC MediaLink. If you ever switch from HTC to Samsung for example, you still be able to use it. It's kinda of a waste of money if it becomes useless when you switch brands. MHL adapter would also be a nice choice.
it seems like a good thing to have at home to show off to your friends, but beyond that i think that the hdmi and adapter option is cheaper also less prone to lag. Will tell more once it finally launches here and i get an opportunity to use it

[Q] a FM Radio for use with CM10.1-Nightlies (JB4.2.2)??

Does anyone Has the FM Radio from the stock Samsung ROM? Because i actually use that alot.
I've been seaching the web without succes.

And please dont come with awnsers like 'the devs dont give a *** about FM radio, people have asked in the past, or use (internet) radio' as i do not have internet all the time or an internet data plan.
I just want a FM radio that uses ota and not internet.

I agree, please integrate or create APK for CM...
I actually got Spirit FM to work perfectly, no more signal losses and finds all of our country's channels.
For anyone wondering why they have no sound:
I've set the band to World 200Khz (as i'm euro) & Audio Method to: Digital OneXL/S/Sony it's the only one out of the list that works for the GT-I9195 (atleast for me), and a few other things at the Debug section, which i don't know out of the top of my head.
Glad i did not waste the money.

I cancel any order at any time on request. And have been doing so for over 2 years. Back then HTC Desire and Nexus One were big and I still support those (as best I can of course).
Now, GS3, HTC One and Xperia's are big and I'm now supporting those too.
It's a "crazy" job trying to support all these, on MANY different custom & stock ROMs, and nobody else is crazy enough to seriously try it seems.

I presume we were emailing about this ?
My ability to support a device is directly related to how much support I get from customers. If it's enough, I buy the phone to support it better.
I was dismayed all variants of the "normal" GS4 had no FM. I expected to buy one, but got an HTC One instead.
I'd be happy to get some GS4 variant with FM, again, if there's sufficient interest in supporting me. I'm working 70 hour weeks and making about the legal minimum wage here for those hours; That's nice, but don't imagine I'm living in app dev luxury or some such.

I'm not sure as ive seen you for first time now and i havent mailed anyone. I do know that developers have struggle with different roms and phones but codes for fm radio shouldnt be that hard. Even the S4 mini stock rom has a FM radio tuner, so missing it on cm10.1 was a bummer.
However for myself, im good now, as i have spirit fm to work with CM10.1.3 as mentioned before.

That setting is only for the paid Unlocked version, though past Free versions may have had a "bug" that still allowed it.

I think we can blame the US market for the lack of recording in most FM apps. I think there's some group or something that charges $10 or so for "FM recorders". And as always, US market effects often hit the rest of the world.
I think this is why there are virtually no MP3/FM players that record. It's a simple feature addition is many cases, so it's omission seems strange.
And only one company, Samsung, has (had) recording in their FM app on International high end phones (GS2, GS3, Note, Note2). And none of the US carriers sell/sold these International phones.
I presume that whatever groups demand ransom for FM recording have either never heard of my app, or figure I'm small potatoes and not worth pursuing.

Never heard that one before.
What frequency ?
Could be a bug in the kernel FM driver.
If you have Unlocked with RDS, try turning it off.
If that fixes it, send me an email.

Hi,
so I have tried turned off the RDS and it doesn't help.
I live in the Czech Republic and I found several stations with this problem.
The first was Country radio 89.5 MHz (Prague)
My phone is i9195 with Cyanogenmod 10.1 (problem is same on all modifications based on the same kernel) so problem is probably there.

Maybe a software issue? Mine certainly learned signals using the Peel remote app that came on the phone

Anymote told me their app can record on the M9, that was one of the deciding factors for me to upgrade from my M7. I have a lot of devices that aren't in any code database, and the IR receiver has become invaluable to me.
So it works for you on the M9?
I See in tha app descriptoin: RECORD REMOTES - exclusive to the HTC One due to hardware limitations in other devices.

It is possible to learn new IR signals.
Open the Peel Smart Remote app, open the remote, go to settings, choose your room and click on your device in the DEVICE-section.

This is not called learn new signal. The Device-section is a set of preset signal. What he meant was learn signals directly from the remote you have. Because sometimes the app does not have your device's brand/signal. Happened to me when i tried on my Fujisu air-conditioner and non of the signals worked.

It does work. Tested it out after I got the phone. However, I haven't seen any other apps besides the one I use that can do it, and last time I checked the app is I think $10. The way I see it, that's still less than a low end universal remote that CAN'T learn signals, but most Android users seem to be entitled jerks who think everything on the app store should be free, so whether or not you're willing to pay for it is your only limitation here.

That's anymote I believe. I also purchased it when I used it ALL THE TIME on my galaxy gear 2 watch. Its got codes for devices I never would have thought of controlling with a phone. I will also say that response from the developers was quick but they were also extremely rude and accused me of having a pirated copy somehow? I didn't have a fake copy obviously otherwise I wouldn't have contacted them for help! Haha either way we got it sorted and they found the code for a device I was having difficult with.

Sent from my HTC 10 using XDA Labs
I was disappointed with the removal of the IR Blaster, I loved it on the SGS4, M8 and M9.
However, looking back I can count the number of times I used it on each device. It was great to have when needed, but just that, when needed and that wasn't much.
It's not something that was a game changer when choosing the device for me.
I'd like to have it and would consider checking out something like the above for when I may need it. (however the shipping said up to 55 days, with no tracking.. I'd like to find an alternative site to purchase from)

May be a little late, but i recently bought this item and technically it's working but the signal is so weak it's unusable. You need to put the phone right in front of the ir reciever to get it working.

There are better 3.5mm ir blasters that work. And some advice, if you are buying the 10, go for the silver or red variant, the black one is so prone to scrathing and paint chiping. Other than that, the phone is great, you won't regret it.
I have a similar IR blaster but is far away from the functions and precision from my previous M9 and M7. It uses an app called ZaZa Remote which hasn't the features that Peel has like the shows that are passing in the moment.
It also have precision issues and the distance range is very poor. You need to disable Dolby Audio in order to work "properly".
I wouldn't recommend it but considering cheapness of the device and that is the only option, go ahead and try it yourself, maybe you have more luck than me.
