[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dstreefkerk:
I'm having the exact same problem with a Samsung Focus.

-Bought it on eBay, and don't live in the US - so I can't bring it to an AT&T store.

-Won't detect updates via Zune

-Windows Phone Support Tool doesn't recognise that the phone is in the "connect to PC" state

This really blows. To top if off, there are no ROMs available for the Focus yet. I think I'll just have to wait until they become available.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munkeyphyst:
Are you sure you don't have a stolen demo phone?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dstreefkerk:
Quite sure. The phone isn't stuck in demo mode. It works perfectly otherwise.

I already said my phone wasn't a stolen/demo device.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dstreefkerk:
Yes! I'm finally off 7003, thanks to the ROM posted in the Focus developer section. I initially viewed it with scepticism as nobody else had success with it, but then again, nobody else was having the same problem as me - a Focus stuck on 7003.

My phone must be a developer device. I didn't even know that developer Focuses (Focii?) existed. The ROM shows up in WP7 Downloader as "WP7_ENGINEER", and users with retail devices couldn't flash with that image.

I've now moved from 7003 to 7390 thanks to the ROM flash procedure. It worked flawlessly.

Thanks so much for sharing the ROM, PavelX1!
[HD2 General] Urvansh:
I applied new facebook and twitter security update in my hd2. And then I got two problems. First is that I loose all my tweets and account when I soft reset my phone. And second that after reseting my phone I get pretty much time opening comm manager. When I press it in settings tab. Nothing happwns for severeal minuyes and than it openes. I am running official rom 3.14. I am too fed up by this how could I downgrade it to the starting1.3?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Hachi2Go:
Anyone know any good widgets that display the hardware's status?

Stuff like cpu temp, clock speed, ram usage, etc... :confused:
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] AdmiralRychard:
While I'm not entirely sure there's much in the way of physical sensors for us to read, I'm also interested in something like this.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] stilgar27:
Widgetsoid (lite) has a bunch of functions you can access through the widget to tell you system status. There isn't anything that tells you cpu temp or usage directly, but there are icons for free ram, system memory, and battery temperature amongst other things.

The ram monitor seems to be a good indicator of how bogged down (and slow) your system is running, and when it's a good time to kill some tasks.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] karlkarloff:
Elixir also seems to have a lot of system info widgets available. CPU usage, battery temp and amp measurement, Ram usuage, available storage, etc. Its the best I've found so far.

Hi,

In January 2011 me and two other friends started our first web-based project: a website about Windows Phone ecosystem.

Things are going relatively well but there is room for improvement.

Can you please check out the website and tell us what you think is missing, what is surplus, etc. We would love to hear your sincere opinion: if you think it sucks, don't be afraid to say it :)

Thanks :)

As for the website, I think it looks pretty nice and functions as it should.

Most of the material is just duplicate to what's on other WP7 blogs but I do like the game reviews. If you keep reviewing lesser known apps, I'll definately continue to check it out.

Following you on twitter.

trying links on the site and they keep timing out.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrazster:
I´m currently running Redux 1.1.1 and it´s absolutely lovely.

However there is one thing I´m missing.

I would love to have a battery % icon showing on the loockscreen.

I can´t find any setting for it in the menus.

So my question is if anyone knows a mod/app to enable this ?

Or if there in fact is a setting for it, that I´m not seeing ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
That's an addon. Find a .zip file containing the cahnges or make yourself one in the UOT Kitchen :

http://uot.dakra.lt/
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrazster:
OK...thanks alot for the answer.

I will have a look at it.

Although I was hoping for someone to already have a mod/addon for it.

hi guys can sombody say wich is the last version from froyo (android) for sd card?
[General Questions and Answers] tonylam79:
I am currently running FroyoStone Sense v2.2 on my HTC HD2. Everything is running great so far, the only problem I had is the T-mobile 3G is not working, Wi Fi is working though.
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
Everytime I see someone post about 1) Frozen phone 2) Download Mode. The first thing that usually pop up is "I had to pull the battery" or "Remove Battery, remove sim card, press vol....etc".

I don't know if everyone know this little trick, but if you hold down your power button for 5 second or so, the phone will reboot even if it is frozen. I have done this countless time, frozen from force close or from OCing the CPU.

Also, I have never had to pull out my battery, sim card to get into download mode. All I did is started with the phone shutoff, sim card inside. Just follow the button combo and the phone will be in download mode when it boots up.
[Vibrant General] ngiordano:
I don't even turn the phone off for Download Mode. I simply do the 3 button combo plugged in. Once the screen goes black I release th power button. Instant Download Mode ;-)
[Vibrant General] kmfisher:
I had to pull the battery this morning.

The phone was locked up, alarm didn't go off. Nothing responded. I held the power button for 10 seconds and nothing. Charger didn't respond, either. I pulled the battery to get it to work again.

This has become a frequent occurance with KA6 for me. If Samsung still cares about this, I hope they get the next update out soon for the phone. I probably won't be a customer of theirs again.
[Vibrant General] turbosix:
only time i pull the battery is quicker download mode access, sometimes it doesnt work the normal way so i just do this every time so i dont have to try multiple times.
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
^ yeah

the one without battery pulling works sometimes for me.

i hate the hassle, so i just do it once and get it over with.

it doesn't take that long.
[Vibrant General] lotherius:
Are you overclocking? I've been running KA6 (from ODIN) with a number of my own mods and haven't had a single crash when I wasn't trying to overclock.... If you're not running stock KA6 you can't really blame sammy.
[Vibrant General] Oniyuri:
Actually, I had to pull the battery a few days ago when CWR froze on me while I was trying to flash a new boot animation. I let my phone sit for at least 5 mins before deciding to see if I could reboot it and it wasn't even responding to my power button. So after fighting with my phone for an extra 3 mins, I did a battery pull and 3-btn'd it back to recovery. =/
[Vibrant General] Chalup:
Yikes OCing probably isn't the best idea then...
[Vibrant General] montez.061-:
Different phones react to OC'ing differently...mine doesn't like it at all
[Vibrant General] kmfisher:
No overclocking. No mods. No root. I went from JFD to JI6 to KA6. KA6 has been nothing but trouble. Daily crashes, worse GPS, and bad lag/ui stuttering. Really pathetic release. When the phone locks up for me, nothing responds but a battery pull. I wish I could fix it.
[Vibrant General] Chalup:
Try factory resetting. If the problems persist, contact T-Mobile about getting a free replacement.
[Vibrant General] lotherius:
Agreed with the other user who said to contact TMO for a replacement. If you're running a clean flash of STOCK KA6 (not someone's hacked up/modded version no matter how stable they claim it is) and your phone is freezing/crashing/stuttering, and you are POSITIVE it isn't due to some installed apk's, then you have a hardware problem. KA6 *is* stable.

[Xperia Arc General] intrancer:
I brought my arc yesterday I plugged it to seus and a new firmware was available.

I upgraded but I forgot to check what the old firmware was, does anyone know what this new firmware fixed ?
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
Can you let us know what your on now???

settings/ about phone.. android version 2.3.2, build number 3.0.a.2.181
[Xperia Arc General] dragunov:
Simply go to settings-> About the phone, go to the bottom of the information displayed, and check the FW version.

Mine had 3.0.A.2.181 out of the box...
[Xperia Arc General] sajjad4joy:
I didn't get any update notification. Can you tell me the new firmware version?

My build number is 3.0.A.2.181.
[Xperia Arc General] intrancer:
I have build 3.0.A.2.184 android 2.3.2
[Xperia Arc General] intrancer:
I Connected to seus and checked for update ... I have unbranded arc UK
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
I too have an unbranded UK arc and have just plugged into SEUS - it's updated the f/w.. just waiting on it booting up!

[Edit - ok.. it's booted up.. and I have the .184 version too.. have you noticed any difference? I've posted on the SEUK FB page to ask them to let us know]
[Xperia Arc General] intrancer:
It feels a little faster .. But I have had a chance to play with the original firmware as I only brought it yesterday
[Xperia Arc General] commodoor:
I did a quick search, couldn't find anything intressant. But what i notices is that the xperia play has the same build version.
[Xperia Arc General] Darth Glacious:
I just connected mine, bought from Germany (no branding, no SIM lock) and having .181 firmware, the SEUS says I have the latest software so no need to update.
[Xperia Arc General] Harboe:
No update here in Denmark as well. 181 still. :-(
[Xperia Arc General] olipheus:
Sweden doesn't seem to have gotten any update yet either.

Where is the patriotism (Sony)Ericsson? :D
[Xperia Arc General] Harboe:
Not that this very nice phone isn't running great, but updates are always nice. :-)
[Xperia Arc General] ronniecross:
Not always.... ;)
[Xperia Arc General] Harboe:
Hehe ok usually then. ;-)
[Xperia Arc General] commodoor:
I noticed my nexus does better job than arc i don't know why. but i like the arc really great screen even outside everything is clear.

Some games lag even angry birds lag i never had this on my nexus. I don't believe it's ram related because have 100+ nothing runs in the background.

But waiting for future update, it will get better :D
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
I've played AB a bit and not had any lag for me...
[Xperia Arc General] ronniecross:
I did get a bit of lag yesterday when playing for about an hour or so, then about about 2 minutes it just sorted itself out...
[Xperia Arc General] commodoor:
It's not a bad lag but very little lag most people wouldn't even notice it.

But did someone found what different is in this update? i still didn't get it
[Xperia Arc General] WhiteHartMart:
Just got my update on a UK phone - reckon its just a plot from SE to convince us they will be supporting us owners this time around :p
[Xperia Arc General] Darth Glacious:
Maybe it was something specific to UK, O2 did complain about some software issue.
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
that wasn't true!!.. SE told me last week that the problems were nothing to do with the "core" s/w..
[Xperia Arc General] Soheil_rf:
http://www.ptcrb.com/ctiastaff/complete/view_complete_request.cfm?modelid=18648
[Xperia Arc General] Darth Glacious:
For me still reports in SEUS that there is no new firmware.
[Xperia Arc General] piflechien:
The .184 adds the BBC iPlayer application
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
I already had that.
[Xperia Arc General] Gavilaaar:
Surely that can't be it!

They could have fb or tweeted us that!
[Xperia Arc General] MJ_QaT:
Let's just hope that this will end the annoying threads and posts regarding lack of updates
[Xperia Arc General] Nimche:
amen to that!
[Xperia Arc General] Darth Glacious:
Checking for update other the air directly in the phone - the phone has the latest software, no update available

Checking with SEUS - phone has the latest software.

Now it should be obvious there is something that is for UK versions of Arc, but not yet for Germany versions of the model.
[Xperia Arc General] Ambroos:
If anyone wants to try over SEUS Pro, I have a username/password. It usually has updates a lot earlier. (PM me)
[Xperia Arc General] Rashkae:
Singapore models don't have an update either. So must be something UK-specific.
[Xperia Arc General] SirRobin78:
So let´s the what different firmeware codes are rolled out:

[Xperia Arc General] muzzytt:
just checked my Uk version ota says up to date, then checked via SEUS and it says there is update however when I try update I get an error "unable to install or start phone update " tried it a few times no joy anyone else have this prob?
[Xperia Arc General] wickedrami:
I just upgraded and that is the only visible difference I can see.
[Xperia Arc General] Darth Glacious:
Which would explain why phones from other countries don't have it.
[Xperia Arc General] Step666:
That was the Play.

And it was almost certainly caused by O2's own locking/branding as the Play launched without any delay through the likes of CPW who stock unlock/unbranded handsets.

I've never heard of that, care to explain?
[Xperia Arc General] ronniecross:
I'm pretty certain this is a corporate version of the SEUS used in places like the repair centers and for internal use, though i've never used it myself, just remember hearing of it in the past.
[Xperia Arc General] Step666:
I thought the system the engineers used for flashing handsets was called EMMA?
[Xperia Arc General] Ambroos:
SEUS Pro is a version of SEUS that gets updates directly from the EMMA servers, a bit before they're in the normal SEUS. EMMA is specialized software used by service centers that can flash multiple versions of firmware, and can flash multiple phones at the same time.
[Xperia Arc General] Step666:
Thanks for the clarification.

So how does one get access to SEUS Pro?

Officially I mean.
[Xperia Arc General] Ambroos:
Apply through this website:

and hope you get accepted!
[Xperia Arc General] orochiguyver:
SEUS just bricked my Arc. Lovely.
[Xperia Arc General] SirRobin78:
What happend to you?
[Xperia Arc General] orochiguyver:
Started updating the normal way then it freezes at about 5% into updating. Stayed like that for 40mins so I had to cancel. Everytime I try to restart the update it freezes between 1=10% area of the bar.

It wont boot up either...

Any suggestions?

Do you think the phones been wiped? I really dont want to resort to the factory reset!
[Xperia Arc General] apy1412:
I had almost the same issue, message said an application has suddenly stopped and the phone crashed, when it came up it stopped at the Sony Ericsson boot screen. I did a few experiment...the below solution worked, but did wipe all info.

Press the back button and plug it to the PC, the green light on right side will show that you are connected to the PC, open the sync and update the firmware and it will...wait to finish and then it boots regularly. Will wipe out everything.

Do it at your own risk.
[Xperia Arc General] orochiguyver:
Hey thanks forthe input.

I managed to get SEUS to work and update without the wipe!

Seems like SEUS doesnt like Windows 7 64 bit anymore... I had a hunch it was this so ran thr update on an XP machine and it updated first go.

What a waste of 2 hrs!
[Xperia Arc General] d_dan:
Ill check for Irish we'ds when I get home
[Xperia Arc General] MJ_QaT:
Hmmm strange, as I'm using Windows 7 64-bit and it didn't cause me any problems with updating :confused:
[Xperia Arc General] Gavilaaar:
Didn't cause me any problems either.

To use that script the kernel you got on your phone needs to support init.d which no kernel's that have been released does atm.

The other option for this to work is including it in the boot.img which paulobrien has done for his Roms

Sorry for cross post, this is a more relevant section imo.

Hi guys

i'm thinking of throwing Android on my HD2 but before I do, I need to know if I can support a couple of things?

Can I support two exchange email accounts?

Will it pull sync ALL info including pictures of people from the server?

Are there any particular fields that are not supported, like the "Notes"?

Is there a Microsoft OneNote client?

I'm guessing there is no MS Zune client at the moment either? Does anyone know if there are any plans?

To support the above, do I need a specific version of Android?

Thanks!!!!
[General Questions and Answers] bhavin66:
Our Exchange setup was just changed to support the enhanced security features and they just forced the "remote wipe" capability.

So everybody who was used to the stock client is shut out!

Google issued a patch for the same BUT to ENTERPRISE customers only!

googleenterprise dot blogspot dot com/2011/04/putting-android-to-work-for-your.html

What the hell was that about.

The stock android mail client was working for me a lot of the people and now it just gives some error about unable to connect.

Now if we need our corporate email we have to either buy the Commercial product:

TouchDown Email : $20

MoxiMail : $20

Enhanced Email : $10

OR compromise with the free clients which just does mail.

K-9 Mail works for most of the Motorola Droid phones.

I have a LG GT540 and it stopped after a day.

MailDroid works better on LG GT540 android phone. I have a rooted android 2.2 on GT540.

All the free mail clients are the basic exchange mail clients which can help you to read email and reply to email.

It does not have GAL (corporate addressbook Lookup). So you need to know the email address of the person to send email to.

Workaround: Corporate AddressBook

Looks up corporate addressbook and has search function.

After a few weeks use most of them switched to MailDroid which seems to be more stable.

Any of the genius out there who have been working on the ROM have been able to get the patch in so that the stock email client can work as it is supposed to work?

That was the core function most users use their phone for and now it does not work unless you pay up and buy a commercial product.

Help please

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrazster:
Did some searching, haven´t yet found an answer.

I´m currently running AlphaRev 1.8 with the alpha "stock" partition table and Redux 1.1.1.

Know let´s say (for the sake of argument) that I want to flash Oxygen or CM7 roms.

Is there any downside of running AlphaRev stock partition table instead of oxygen or CM7 partition table? Other than that it might take up some extra space ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
No downsides, except the space.

E.g. Using Redux will take up cca. 80 MB from the system partiton, but you are on stock, that means 250-80 = 170 MB (approx.) is not used.

So, it is only the memory usage efficiency.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dannylill1981:
I switched from stock to oxygen partition layout and now have over 300mb available for apps, all of this was being wasted on the stock partition layout so its worth it.
