Re: King 7S 3D phone on sale!

Crunchy:

slide down the top bar two times, you will see the gear icon for settings, touch that.

Now scroll to the bottom, and the 3rd from bottom you will see a grey gear icon again (its "advanced"). If you touch you can see the second icon in green "A", thats the language and input, here the first will be language. Hope this help

Btw, are you the Crunchy from AVS forums?

Re: King 7S 3D phone on sale!

Thank you very much! Just few minutes ago I managed to find it: Settings - System - Advanced - Language & Input

Ajustes - Sistema - Advanced - Idioma e introducion de texto - Idioma. (funny mix of two languages!)

Funny that I was there before, but I did not see the last "Idioma", since I still have the sticker on the screen. Would like to check it first before peeling it off.

Re: King 7S 3D phone on sale!

By the way, I'd like to use the phone without SIM card (mostly as a 3D viewer and to run some OBD applications for my car). How can I add the account? It asks me for the phone number. Is it possible to add only Google account?

If I choose existing account, it asks me for PPTV account. Is it possible to circumvent it somehow?

Great, welcome here

I cannot help, i also dont have SIM card on 7S, but download apps (3dsteroid, sview, stereoscope..) to my other phone and here i can save the installer apk file with airdroid, so i put this apk to 7S and install.

I managed to get any application by opening gmail and signing into my e-mail account. From then on I could get any application in Play Store (also got my paid apps). Good!

Do you know where to get screen protectors and phone cases?

Re: King 7S 3D phone on sale!

I use my King 7S as a functional smart phone with a FreedomPop SIM card ($.99) with NO monthly fee, for 200 calling minutes. 500 texts, and 250 MB for data, for FREE!

Hard to beat.

Re: King 7S 3D phone on sale!

7S owners please test your ghosting.

I made two SBS pictures, left eye with different grey circles, right eye is black (picture 1), or grey (picture 2).

0. Download these files to the phone:

Pic 1

Pic 2

1. Set your brightness to maximum on PPTV.

2. Open 3DSteroid, set stereo mode to 3DLCD.

3. Press Menu/Open File, check one picture, hit OK.

4. If the bottom menu is still visible, touch center of the screen.

Now you can start testing the ghosting.

5. Close one of your eyes, hold the phone in your hands and rotate a little left to right (around the Y axis).

6. If you move away from you to the max, you will see a big dark "ghost" moving left to right as you rotate. Slowly move the phone closer to your head. You will find a position where this "ghost" fill the entire screen. That's your best distance for 3D, by me around 30cm. If you move even closer, it will be worse again.

7. Now check which dark circle is the first visible, when the entire screen is at darkest.

By me it's the number 3 on the 2nd line. That means big ghosting
Picture "Ghost2" has less contrast, because the background is not total black, just grey.

Here i see circle 5 or 6.

How about you? Is all PPTV the same, or should i order another?
I made this test because i discover ghosting in 80% of my pictures
All my other 3D displays are much better (dlp projectors, lg 3dtv or even my old 2342 lg monitor show ghosting from circle 6 (pic1) and 16 (pic2), which is way better than this screen.
Thanks for checking

Re: King 7S 3D phone on sale!

Is there any other, good 3D player for 7S?

Built in doesn't support my top/bottom videos, and scaling algorythm is bad (jagged edges).

sView work like slowmo by me.

Any other exist which support column interleaved mode??

thanks

Please 7S users, test the ghosting above, so i can be sure if all are the same or only my device has defect.

Thank you!

Re: King 7S 3D phone on sale!

Thanks so you see circle 1 on picture 1 with one eye closed?
This circle and above (2,3... etc) never disappear as you rotate a little the phone left-right?

If yes, that means very very big ghosting. Worse than mine.
Or which part was not clear on the steps?

Close one eyes all the time!

thanks

Re: King 7S 3D phone on sale!

Thanks for the heads up! The King 7S has an impressive 6" 3D display and it's really a great bargain at the current price.

It seems that some of the phones sold internationally do not feature the K3DX applications (3D Image, 3D Media and 3D Player) that are included in the Chinese version. For the owners of these phones, it is possible to download the apps here: https://drop.me/M0xOEQ

Technically, you are a newer member than me...

I have ordered a 7S but have not received it yet. I'll let you know the result as soon as I get the 7S.

Cheers!

Re: King 7S 3D phone on sale!

I have received the King 7S and just did the test: in a normally lit room, I see Circle 2 in Picture 1 and Circle 3 in Picture 2. But if the room is totally dark, then I see Circle 1 in Picture 1 and in Picture 2.

I find the screen quite amazing. I don't particularly notice any ghosting when looking at pictures or watching movies.

Cheers!

I will share pictures where ghosting is unacceptable, where i cannot find position for ghostless viewing.
