[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greekleo:
Hi guys,

I seem to have a problem with my X10i, it randomly turns off by it self, below are the times in which ive noticed this:

Phone is charging and i am texting at the same time or talking for like 5 mins and then turns off

phone charging and it gets too hot and it turns off

phone turns off when hot generally,

i play a racing game for 20 mins and it turns off.

When it turns off it tries to reboot, it boot it s then turns off again, i have to take the battery appart, wait for 10 mins plug it back in and turn it on.

This gets annoying as it shouldn't really do this and its not as if i put my phone on top of the radiator in order for it to get hot.

Please help

Ps. it did this on android 1.6 and 2.1 so that didnt fix it.

Regards

Well, this is definitely a hardware problem... you should return it to warranty or try and get it robbed to activate insurance if you have one... lol
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greekleo:
Hey,

Thanks for the reply, i have also noticed that when the phone turns off it make a small clicking noise.

Thanks for the suggestions but im in greece and i have no insurance cover and the phone was given as a gift so i don't know what is up with the warranty.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Makz121:
Totally a Hardware problem... Just take it to the nearest SE Repair. It'll cost you though.. :\ They Charge really high if u dnt have wwarranty.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greekleo:
Any ideas on which hardware could be causing this? do you reckon it could be just the battery getting too hot? or something else?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo.:
You will still have warranty even if it's gifted (through imei )
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greekleo:
Oh nice i hope that is the case, i 'm not sure if its been a year though, how long does the warranty cover?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo.:
One year. Warranty is for one year and two years on special contract basis if i'm not wrong.

If your phone keeps restarting, (Heating) another issue could be wrong (or high) OC settings (like setcpu to high values) or something. Which fw are you running atm?

Try reflashing to Stock and see if the same thing happens?

I had the similar issue , I flashed it to Wolfs 2.2 switched off the mobile, Removed battery and let it cool down. After sometime it fixed the issue by itself :D
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greekleo:
Hey,

Thanks for your reply, i do not know what oc speed i have or how to overclock, as for my version i have the stock 2.1 android rom and build 2.1.A.0.435

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FLASH, i have seen tutorials but everytime i set my phone to usb debugging mode it over heats and turns off
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MsnSazabi:
Have nearly same problems. Looks like you have fuel gauge ic problems, max17040, to be exact. Or Qualcomm PM7540 power distribution ic, which is much worthier. Does your battery level changes sometimes after that glitches, and returns to normal after battery re-installation?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greekleo:
yes that does happened sometimes, the battery is on red and the phone crashes, but then when i take the battery out and plug it back in after 10 mins i get a white bar in the battery so in theory it has more battery than when it crashed.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DevilsGrave:
Can I make a folder on the XOOM with the videos in it? I want my son to be able to navigate to it without any problems.

Also what's the best video player out on the market? I tried VPlayer but its slightly sluggish playing avi files. I put an MPEG4 video and it plays awesome in the default video player.

Thanks.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeptikal_1:
+1

Also wondering how to create the video folder for my 4 year old
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DevilsGrave:
Anyone? Or any other solution like a network drive that allows us to play videos.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StirCwazy:
Read up on CifsManager, works very well but requires root.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Just-in-time:
I just used the Movies folder that is already on the Xoom and it works great for me. Default player sees it no problem. i Use Handbrake to encode all my videos so they all play fine. Even when using the HDMI to my TV.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliensite:
Playlist created with PowerAmp. After it happened a few times I switched to PlayerPro but it happened again. I read somewhere that it might be caused by media scanner and I did add a HTML file to my phone last night.

What's causing this and how do I avoid it? Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glundberg:
is your music stored on the external sd card?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thepa:
I got the same problem whenever I hook up to the usb. I talked to the dev. and they told me that power amp doesn't keep track of tracks on a playlist that comes from the sd. Sad!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliensite:
Yes, songs stored on external SD card. I'll move them to internal storage. Good thing the Vibrant has lots of storage. Thanks!

Edit: This is the solution because songs purchased from Amazon were stored internally and those tracks were not deleted.

Hey been trying to root using z4root...enabled debugging....phone running android 2.2.1....getting mad I literally every apk to assist and the z4mod still doesn't complete...I've tried installing superuser and busybox manually....I just want it to work I've been trying for days....
[General Questions and Answers] 1dunnj:
super one click works on the ally, until you reboot/powercycle.

you can install superuser after using super one click, but if you power cycle your phone, you have to use it again.

flashing a rom after rooting keeps it rooted.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] trickyhenry:
Hi guys, I really like the ATRIX im going back to it after getting a SE Arc.

Now... one great thing about the arc is the launcher.

Just so happens its available on xda by searching.

Give it a go. Im sure it'll work. Im using a defy at the moment until my 2nd ATRIX arrives next week.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] jug6ernaut:
There is a version for atrix in this sub forum. :) n yes it is very nice. with that said, closed. No need for two threads about same thing ;).

I have tried the TNT4.40 and VEGAn5.11 rom~ both of them don't support "location determined" by WIFI~

So why developers remove these useful function?

whether they will add it in the next version rom?

What is missing from the Vegan-tab Froyo firmware that enables the wifi location feature to work? Is this a kernel module? Anyway to fix it?

(not interested in using a bluetooth GPS device)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JackAbramoff:
Fake location

Check out "Fake GPS Location" in the store. It allows you to manually tell your tablet where it is, in the absence of any GPS information.

My only quibble is that I can't figure out how to auto-run it at startup, so I have to run it manually after every reboot. Not a big problem since at this point I'm not rebooting very often.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] savage0:
in the absence of GPS information~the device should still can locate the position by the wifi information~ for example ipad touch

but it seems that all the rom for g tablet can't perform such function....
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcrews:
Not all but most. I think the cyanogenmod based roms can...I know the earlier cm6 did.

why most of rom can't?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] savage0:
anyone?~~~~~~~~~~~~
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivan.volosyuk:
I think it's an idea for an app. Is it possible to get list of reachable access points from an app? You can definetely get information about one the device is connected to. There is a depricated URL on google maps you can use to geocode your location. So an app will poll list of accessible APs and will do geocoding + fake location provider. Profit! :)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
As was mentioned earlier in this thread, the CM7 based (gingerbread) Roms do this.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] savage0:
thanks~ but it seems that TNT4.40 and VEGAn5.11 are more popular~

is there more bug in CM7 based (gingerbread) Roms than TNT4.40 and VEGAn5.11?

if not, i will try CM7
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roebeet:
The framwork for TNT Lite and VEGAn are based on a vendor's compile, so bear that in mind. CM6/7 is a different animal - they are directly compiled off AOSP.

So, for example, if TNT Lite is missing language support (which it is), it can't be fixed by the modder - it needs to be fixed by the vendor themselves. This probably falls into that same area, unless there's a hack that we can add manually.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archangel:
Yes that is correct cyan mod 7 can!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmenzie:
it is true that wifi location works in CM7... HOWEVER.... do to the way CM7 names it's storage devices, other apps such as TB will have trouble do this naming convention. i also have found that in CM7 if you reboot and choose to reboot into recovery, the device reboots back into CM7 and not into recovery/clockworkmod as it should.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JBuchanan:
I have looked through numerous threads and haven't seen this anywhere. After figuring out that you had to push the SD card in with some elongated device, it always says it's unavailable..... Am I missing something? It's only a 2GB card and is in all the way.

I can't believe that its already happened but The HD7 has gotten an android port.

[Windows Phone 7 General] ycavan:
Pretty slick. :) I would love to see Android on my LG Quantum. lol

My main issue w/ WP7 is that the APIs/apps don't exist ( sockets for 1 ) for doing things like streaming video ( a la orb ) and offline gps navigation.
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
What are you talking about? You can easily stream video to a WP7 device. Same goes for offline navigation.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Perlnx:
Is it real 100% ?

Because they didn't provide any method and this a month of April fool day,

and one more.. how did they do it with what HSPL ??

Source of this video : XDA.CN
[Windows Phone 7 General] ycavan:
try setting up orb & go to mycast.orb.com, login & try to stream anything... ie on wp7 refuses to play any container, even asx files.

& offline nav... which offline nav app have you found in the Marketplace? Right now, I use TomTom 7 on my wm 6.5 phone. I also have A-to-B on my Quantum, but that is not an offline solution.

Navigon has to be side-loaded ( 'cause I have yet to find North American Navigon ) and then tricked into downloading NA maps from a local web server... so not very legit there.

Don't get me wrong, I do like Netflix and Facebook integration in wp7... I'm just irritated that this device was handicapped w/ the lack of APIs for normal daily stuff.
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
It has nothing to do with API's being missing - all the API's you need (for these two purposes) are there. If I'm not mistaken there are a few Orb clients in the works - but my point was that you can stream to WP7 just fine. Heck, you can stream directly from your Media Center PC at home over 3G if you set it up right.

As for Navigon - you're correct, it's exclusive to TMODE, but the app exists and works just fine, again showing you that all the API's are infact there. The only non-standard APIs Navigon use are those to identify your IMEI and IMSI, which would not be needed were the app not exclusive in the first place.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
I'd rather see WP7 ported to Android phones than the other way around. The hardware is so much better on the Android side, I'm not sure why anyone would ever want to do this.
[Windows Phone 7 General] DatDereX1:
Why would anyone want to downgrade the OS??
[Windows Phone 7 General] slk604:
I love my hd7....but I would like to see this come to life. Fingers crossed.
[Windows Phone 7 General] krjcook:
^^^ I wouldn't necessarily call it a downgrade... More like a 2nd option. I wouldn't mind having it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] slk604:
Exactly.

Kinda like having windows 7 and Ubuntu dual boot...kinda
[Windows Phone 7 General] domineus:
I'll say do I want android

I stopped developing for HD2 android to get wp7...I don't want to go back. Period
[Windows Phone 7 General] ashykat:
I would love to have this as an option. I'd still primarily use WP7 but it'd be great to duel boot and be able to use Android when I need or want something that is not yet available for WP7. I'd love it just to play Abduction! World Attack and for Google Nav.
[Windows Phone 7 General] professorwol:
I would love to be able to put android on my hd7.

Please give me more options guys!

Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 General] eternalemb:
Eww. I'd rather be able to dual boot WM6.5.3. Android is just a rip off of iPhone and WM6.5 anyways...
[Windows Phone 7 General] ashykat:
Which both ripped off of Palm OS (aka Garnet OS).
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Please explain how Windows Mobile ripped off Garnet OS or any Palm Product...

Nevermind... You can't.
[Windows Phone 7 General] orangekid:
Don't see how this is possible without HSPL or Haret, he probably just put an HD7 front side case on some Android device.

edit:

how the hell did you guys go from Android on an HD7 to the same old idiotic "oh man WP7 sucks, WP7 is awesome, WM6.5.x sucks, Palm is awesome"

this has nothing to do with any of that garbage.
[Windows Phone 7 General] efjay:
$5 says this thread will soon be full of the usual suspects bashing WP7 and its missing features.
[Windows Phone 7 General] domineus:
its possible they used jtag for this...
[Windows Phone 7 General] conantroutman:
$5 says it will be closed if that happens ;)

Already tempted to start cleaning out the all too familiar.... "x is better than y"...."d is just a rip off of p"......... crap.

Until this is confirmed/disproved, (I have a feeling it will be the second one) lets try and keep the posting to things that are relevant.
[Windows Phone 7 General] orangekid:
how would you use jtag for this?

be impossibly unpossible to develop a nand kernel and (somewhat) working libs and push it thru jtag IMO
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
if I heard it right (and I normally do :) ) then there is a way to get it working without jtag , but you would be needing a hell of a hacker (and we know some )

so I think that this could be the real deal ( but as allways it will take some time) .
[Windows Phone 7 General] orangekid:
it just seems like if they had hacked a WP7 bootloader we would have somehow caught wind of it before they got it to load a smooth working Android port with some working libs flashed onto it?

I mean it went from "no chance in hell" to great working beta port with nothing in between, you're telling me they wrote a bootloader and somehow flashed it on top of the existing one and ported a working nand kernel and libs and this is the first we've heard of it?

This reminds me of when Tom Codon "ported" WP7 to the HD2...
[Windows Phone 7 General] professorwol:
i agree with this poster.. I don't want to see this thread turn into some fanboy parade for wp7 or wm6.5 or android..

We are just asking for more options so don't come in to this thread crying about how "You should have bought an Android phone if u wanted android"

What is it your business what I choose to do? I'm not asking for buying advice

I'm asking for another feature i.e the ability to flash another OS to my device.

heck i think that would be really cool in my opinion.
[Windows Phone 7 General] orangekid:
after watching it again I'm thinking this might be real, it would be really hard to fake and you don't see the usual dark background with a cord hanging out of it or something fakers normally do.

if it is real you can count me in on buying a WP7 device when there's a public release of Android dual-boot on it. :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] mdskrzypczyk:
Yeah and maybe a couple of babies with that.
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
I was thinking...

odviously if this is possible, android would have to booted into nand. Which means that there'd have to be a hspl? ANd possibly magldr? And then flash the android rom through magldr. I mean... itd be a LOT of work, but look what they did with the HTC HD2. I think people miss the point, its not about which os better, the fun part is making stuff work on other stuff when its not suppose to. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] DavidinCT:
Isn't the HD7 a HD2 with a few button changes anyway ? What you really want is the HD7s (SLCD display) on AT&T then triple boot with WP7 (native), WP 6.5.3 (for all the apps that WP7 can't run) and Android.

Sorry but, Wouldn't that be just a epic phone ? Large 4.3" Super AMOLED level display with all the cool OS options when ever you want...

I wonder if they get it working for the HD7, if it will just drop on the HD7s....???
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
well.. to dual boot, we'd need access to read write access to our sd cards. And if we can execute files from our sd cards we could run android. But can WM7 even excute .exe files. Lots of maybes and what ifs. WM7 isnt like WM 6.5, so who know. <shrug>
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
Oh yea, doesnt htc hd2 have access to sd cards through wm6.5 and through file explorer on pcs as a usb mass storage device?
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
That thing's battery life is dismal even with WP7 with android it'd likely have about a 20 minute battery life...
[Windows Phone 7 General] -WP7User-:
I hope it to be real. It can't be an April's fool, 'cause the vid was posted on 6.4.2011...but on the other side it could probably be the case that they couldn't finish the video in time and it was posted some days later. We'll have to wait and see and hope, that the "waiting-part" isn't too long :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] peacekeeper05:
Wish this is true. I want android more. It will definitely be the best upgrade i can get on my phone. It will be my main OS after installing
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
Then I must ask, why did you buy a WP7?

Anyway, I do hope this never happens purely as a testament to the security of the OS. I mean you'd have to write a bootloader from scratch, make android device friendly, and pretty much just rebuild the entire thing. It's more likely a sideloaded app meant to show off just those features. That could easily be done though I'm not certain with the APIs currently available. I ditched android because I wanted a working OS. I got it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] str8blackk:
MOD EDIT

Continue making posts like that and you will find yourself unable to post at all.

One warning. That is all.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
He's a staunch defender of this platform. Not a loser, just a rabid fanboi. Nothing really wrong with it, and he has a point. Why would anyone buy an HD7 if they want Android. Only an idiot would, especially when an HD2 can be had for cheaper with basically the same specs (barring the internal storage, but that is fixed with an SD Card) and HTC uses basically the same design in all of its 4.3" phones... Why not just get a Nexus S or something. You do realize that buying an HD7 to run Android is a crappy deal. The hardware is so far behind other Android devices that it isn't even worth it unless you got the phone for free (and even in that case, you could have gotten a Vibrant or something for free and just put a custom ROM on it and came out better).
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
I get a full day with above moderate use. I got a full day on my HD2 as well. Not sure what you people do on phones to complain that much about battery life. The HD7's battery life is decent, but I don't expect it to be decent once Microsoft introducing more background syncing and Multi-Tasking in Mango. It will also have an effect on performance in other areas of the OS as well.

But battery life is decent enough right now to not be an issue. It has a smaller battery than my Vibrant, but better battery life than my Vibrant.

And yea, once you put Android on it, the battery life will drop factorably. Android is just terrible when it comes to that...
[Windows Phone 7 General] orangekid:
the whole point is the ability to dual-boot.

WP7 has so many missing features that you want that Android has, but Android cannot stream netflix and is missing some cool games that WP7 has, so this would be an awesome dual-boot situation because it looks like cotulla has written a hacked bootloader for the HD7. People who can't get good battery life in android don't know how to use it and should probably just stick with WP7 because iOS might even be too complicated for them, but this is awesome for us peeps who want as many boot options from one phone as we can get.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
That doesn't answer the question why someone would get an HD7 instead of an HD2 for that... The HD2 is better in every way than the HD7 outside of the fact that it doesn't come with WP7 pre-installed on it, and for someone who is thinking that deep about features Windows Mobile 6.5 with Sense would probably offer them a superior user experience if they are intelligible and got applications to fill in some gaps (Skype, Microsoft TellMe, Bing with Voice Nav, Office Mobile 2010, EverNote, etc.). By User Experience, I mean the entire experience using the device, not just the user interface, btw...

I broke my HD2 out for a while the other day and realized how good HTC's swing on Windows Mobile is... One can only wonder what HTC and Microsoft could have done with it had they "partnered" up.
[Windows Phone 7 General] confrontation:
I would for sure put android on my HD7 , WP7 is just DULL and kinda lifeless , a shame really.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Keefo:
GTFO!! haha

...........
[Windows Phone 7 General] Avandor:
Weird... I feel the same way about Android. Strange isn't it how different people have different opinions, OMGOSH ! :cool:
[Windows Phone 7 General] orangekid:
dual-boot would be better on an HD7 because you get perfect 4 point multi-touch in WP7 and you will also get official updates when they come out instead of having to wait for a port.

Multi-touch would probably work better in Android too, those are the main reasons for me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] andoridkiller:
I came from andorid and only thing i miss are the apps, apart from that, i would not go back to android. I think its downfall is the lack of support for updates, which i hated, if ms are more lenient on there hardware requirements its going to turn into android
[Windows Phone 7 General] peacekeeper05:
Yeah i would too. Im gonna throw my wp7 out. Wp7 is such a bad choiçe
[Windows Phone 7 General] ashykat:
Whoa there. I wasn't bashing WinMo with what I said. All of these mobile OS's built off each other. Palm OS was developed in 1996, and you think it didn't influence how WinMo was designed? They've all ripped from each other a little bit. I'm not saying it's a bad thing. It's expected. Android started out ripping off BlackBerry, until the iPhone came out and the UI and control scheme changed dramatically after that to compete. I'm not saying that means any one is worse than the other. It just is what it is. Windows Phone 7's multitasking preview resembles Palm's webOS card view too. It happens.
