IvanRattus Posted September 29, 2016 Share #1 Posted September 29, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) I'm trying to connect my Leica Q to my Sony Xperia Z5 compact E5823 phone with the Leica Q WiFi App, I have successfully managed to link an IPhone 6 and several different Android (6.0.1) phones but despite using the same parameters I've not been able to connect the Sony phone. Has anybody been able to connect a a Sony Xperia to the Leica Q or got any suggestions - I'm using the following Sony Xperia Z5 compact E5823 OS Android version 6.0.1 Leica Q App Leica Q Firmware version 2.0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herve5 Posted September 30, 2016 Share #2 Posted September 30, 2016 are you using an existing, external wifi network (with the Xperia registered on it as well as the Q), or the option where the Q deploys its own network? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dancook Posted September 30, 2016 Share #4 Posted September 30, 2016 (edited) Have you tried manually choosing the phones wifi connection as the Leica Q camera? Edited September 30, 2016 by dancook 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvanRattus Posted September 30, 2016 Author Share #5 Posted September 30, 2016 Yes tried that - manually set up with password and as an open network without password. I've followed procedures that Leica suggested after contacting them and these all worked successfully with other phones but not the Sony - have contacted Sony but still awaiting a suggested procedure, so far its the usual disclaimer of not testing all Apps - I'm just hoping another Leica Q owner has tried connecting the same phone Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IvanRattus Posted September 30, 2016 Author Share #7 Posted September 30, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Thanks for the re-assurance, I'll keep trying different set-ups - the one oddity that stands out is that the phone see's the Leica Q WiFi and connects but does not progress beyond that state ie not progressing to the next screen that gives remote control. The Phone shows the Leica Q as connected but with no internet connection - is this the same as your phone Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvanRattus Posted September 30, 2016 Author Share #8 Posted September 30, 2016 Thanks for all the help finally tracked down the problem - AVG antivirus had been installed - removal of this app has solved the problem 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
