The airline and Boeing know more info about this flight than they are revealing. If you remember Air France Flight 447, which went down in the South Atlantic in 2009, there was real time telemetry being sent every few seconds to airline maintenance,it told the heading, engine configuration airspeed, 28 parameters if I recall.
The B-777 is a most sophisticated airliner and was surely transmitting data until the end
