[Q] Galaxy s5 camera (isocell) in s4 (mod)

Hello, mates!
I own a galaxy s4, IMO is a perfect device for dimensions, screen, and spaces optimizations.
I don't like s5 form factor, and the only one thing I really miss with s4 is the camera in low light conditions.
Compared with new sensors s4 can't make very good low light pictures, a friend of mine have huawei p7 and I can see that in darkness pictures are much better than mine take with s4!
My idea is to install s5 camera in galaxy s4, I think pinout could be the same (n^ of pins are the same, but I have no datasheets).
It could be a difficult mod because s5 flex cable is not straight like the flex cable of s4 camera:

Probably it's impossible for a lot of reasons (drivers? from galaxy s5 is possible? Fit to the case? Cable?), but I ask because I know someone swapped camera sensors in other devices, and the only thing that makes it seem "old" the s4 is the camera performance :cyclops:

Connecting S5 neo to TV

I've got a s5 neo (SM-G903F) and picked up an 11pin USB MHL 2.0 to HDMI cable in the hope of connecting my phone to my TV but it only charges phone and doesn't display phone screen on any of TVs in my house.
Seems phone is not MHL compatible
Just wondering if there is away around this or a different way to mirror my phone screen to my TV?

I have same question-problem
Can be done anything to "make" S5 Neo work with MHL Hdmi adapter?
Quite disappointment this missing feature, im even thinking to sell and change to "old" S5 .

S5 neo does not suppot ML. The phone is a downgrade of the original S5 in some areas.

Few questions before buying

Hello
I've found a Nexus 7 2013 online selling for 75 USD. I've never really searched for the Nexus before now so i'm unsure if this is actually a decent or even good price, or if it's pretty normal.
Also, i'm planing to use it for my car. How good is the aux output? I'm asking because not too long ago i bought a Lenovo Tab 7 tb-7504x. But the aux output isn't really good. Sound quality is ok, but the volume is too low. Before that i used an old HTC Flyer, and the Audio was both, louder and better quality wise.
Thanks

If you're planning to use it in your car, ensure the USB port is'nt faulty. The 2013's micro USB is notoriously known to break. Mine is broken, but luckily the 2013 has wireless charging, so I can still charge it with a QI charger.

Any decent 3rd party usb-c hub's that can do 1440p dex?

I've tried dex on pc and its... pretty **** tbh. Framerate is real low and crashes often. My old usb-c with hdmi hub could do dex at 1440p on a note 9, but for some reason the same setup for note 10 doesn't work?
heard the dex pad works for the note 10, but its pricey and ppl have complained its useless if you got a case on it.

Samsung Note 4 mirror 4K videos?

Since Note 4 can shoot 4K videos, can it also mirror these 4K videos on a Samsung 4K TV?
Searched the forum but got nothing. Then Googled and while found articles with "How to Wirelessly Display Your Samsung Galaxy Note 4 to a LG 4K Smart TV" https://gtrusted.com/how-to-wireles...our-samsung-galaxy-note-4-to-a-lg-4k-smart-tv
Also found "Samsung Galaxy S5 / Note 4 / Edge MHL 3.0 4K HDTV HDMI Adapter" https://www.mobilefun.co.uk/samsung-galaxy-s5-note-4-edge-mhl-3-0-4k-hdtv-hdmi-adapter-51065
Hope some others have tried either wireless or wired mirroring with their Note 4 and if there are any problems trying to do this with 4K videos.

I ordered two years ago cheapest 4k mhl adapter (black with violet text 4k or something) and it didnt work so there ended my experiments. I think for mhl need to have stock rom.
I have LG tv but i didnt get connected my Note 4 by screen share. S4+ worked unknown amount of pixels. Both on custom rom.
