[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kulen:
I do plan to install custom ROM. otherwise I would report this to SE also.

but I thought if we figure out what causes this it could help others and maybe on custom ROM's too if there's the same problem.

I was thinking of installing racht's floyo 0.20, but I will not be able to do this until next week for sure. and I still have to figure out how to sync phone with exchange server after that, because I don't want to pay for a new application and I don't want to use cracked one.

I didn't understand what was running in the background for you, and which applications do you think I should uninstall?.

I can uninstall all but the most suspicious - Roadsync because I don't have alternative for it

and even that I won't risk doing at least until next week

but uninstalling SE included apps one by one and checking if phone still reboots is a good way to start searching for a problem. only thing about that is that it only reboots once in a few days so it would take a looooot of time and I wouldn't be sure.

or maybe I could uninstall all of the apps and use a phone for a few days to see if this happens again. and then start searching for a particular app that causes reboot, if it doesn't reboot without apps

but it's too much time consuming for one man (or even a few) that need that phone for everyday use.

I guess if somebody doesn't post a solution I will have to wait until I install custom ROM.

or maybe really post a problem to SE - I don't believe they will do anything about it but maybe it's good if they know people are not happy with their phones.

Got to think about it

Dare-Devil Inside thank you for your help. I appreciate it.

I already downloaded everything I need a few days ago, except the ROM itself.

but if I need some kind of advice I will contact you
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreatApo:
I also remember having some reboots when i used the stock rom...

Believe it or not, from the last month that nobodyatall found the sd card removed problem, custom roms are the best... not to mention dioxanh's modules...

I also believe that custom roms may still become better...

Yours GreatApo

(X8 under MiniCM)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dare-Devil Inside:
They ARE better.

Look this way: we have fully functional custom roms with NO bugs (ok, tiny bugs like compass not working in gmaps :D and DSP manager is broken) and it's Froyo-based wich automatically means it's better than stock wich is Eclair. Overall, it's much more stable, smoother and faster to use than stock.

Also, custom ROMs are very smooth now (thanks to doixanh and his MDDI lag fix)

And an another thing: no self-reboots at all... when my phone slows down I use ATK and Speed Boost. (Or Fast Reboot app)

Also I run Cachemate once a week.

@kulen: so, before installing custom, root your phone and remove RoadSync and other unused system apps. (Don't uninstall Google apps, phone.apk and similiar)

EDIT:

P.S.: PM me, but in Croatian please, I'm sick of English :D
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kulen:
I thought all of the SE stuff would be gone when I update custom ROM?

and what app should I use instead of Roadsync for syncing mail with exchange server?

All apps that I found needs to be payed. HTC has exchange support in mail app so maybe some ROM with sense UI could have it included?

I also like Croatian more but this stuff may be useful to others also, so it's better to write in forum.

I'll PM you when I'll have some specific (and I'm sure I'll have) questions that others shouldn't be bored with.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dare-Devil Inside:
Yup. But SE stuff is **** anyway :D

In stock Email app, when you go to log-in, after entering adress and password, it asks you "What type of an account is this?" - One option is Exchange

So, I think stock ROM also have same (or similiar) email app (not gmail) as custom roms so you could try it and see does it works.

If it works, you can update to custom and use that for syncing.

Basically, our email app also supports syncing, like HTC. (seems to support - try first)

By the way: When flashing custom, there's an option backup. So, just before flashing back up your current OS, and flash new one. If you don't like it, or something you need does not work, you can easily go back to your stock ROM and continue using phone as before.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kulen:
It didn't ask me anything, and I can only chose POP3 or IMAP from menus.

so I guess it could be Froyo stuff if you have that option? or ROM cookers included app from some other phone that supports Exchange natively.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dare-Devil Inside:
Oh, I think Froyo supports it than, Eclair dont

No, this is stock Froyo app.

I installed custom ROM. Racht's Floyo 0.20

I had one self reboot, but right after I installed it and configured mail so I'll consider it's no problem if it doesn't happen again.

camera doesn't work and screen need some time to become bright enough.

everything else seems to be working. so I'll be using it for some time now.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dare-Devil Inside:

You should try Froyobread by doixanh or Elelinux by Frogy Furnetal or even latest miniCM

No self-reboots anywhere ;)

Don't forget to wipe battery stats :D
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kulen:
there was one self-reboot but right after I installed it so I will consider it was still configuring itself :-)

what does battery stats wipe do? I do that in Xrecovery?

[Atrix 4G Android Development] kholk:
Welcome to Eternity Project!

What are these things?

The first one permits to access to NVFlash (unfortunately you need the SBK for playing with it) and to use the Atrix without even having a battery in it, as the power is sucked through the USB.

The second one permits you to access to the Tegra UART console and to all the outputs redirected to the TTL console.

-----Factory Cable:-----

You need:

1. An USB cable to break, or an USB to MicroUSB adapter (~2$) to break.

2. A brain

3. Soldering iron (if you don't find another method for fixing the cable.....)

4. A brain.

5. Pieces of rigid copper or aluminium (copper preferred)

Pinout:

1	VCC	Red	+5 VDC

2	D-	White	Data -

3	D+	Green	Data +

4	ID	NC	Identification

5	GND	Black	Ground

Schematics:

Guide for a 3-in-1 cable:

1. Solder rigid copper wires on PIN 1, 4 and 5.

2. Drill 3 holes in your USB to MicroUSB adapter for making the rigid wires to pass through.

3. Connect PIN4 to PIN1 (externally :D) for FACTORY CABLE or PIN4 to PIN5 for OTG CABLE (for USB HUBs and USBHost functionalities). Don't connect anything for normal USB cable for USBSync/ADB etc.

-----Tegra UART:-----

You need:

1. USB TTL adapter (CP210x preferred)

2. A brain

3. Soldering iron (optional)

4. 3.5mm connector (the one that are using for example your headsets)

Schematics:

How to:

1. Connect PIN3 (head) to TX

2. Connect PIN2 to RX

3. Connect GND to ...GND!

4. Connect your adapter on headset jack on Atrix

5. Open a terminal emulator, like PuTTY.

Connection parameters:

- 115200, 8 n 1, no flow control

Hint:

Use it for getting a (root?) console on the Atrix without having to use ADB or TerminalEmulator... or for debugging purposes.

We also looked into getting larger quantities produced in Taiwan for significantly cheaper.

Our followers on Twitter unanimously voted for the more expensive USA produced cables, so that is what we did for our initial purchase of 25 units.

We are not going into the cable business and were really just interested in providing a unique geek toy for some of our friends and supporters.

If considerable interest in these cables develops then we can look at the situation further and find the best way to make them available for the cheapest price.

[General Questions and Answers] superbaby206:
Hi everyone,

I got into a bad battery drain situation that doesn't seem to be reported here.

Device: Unlocked TMOUS HD2

Carrier: AT&T

Symptoms

I was running android on my HD2 happily until 3 weeks ago. Suddenly I had battery drain of 7%-10% per hour on standby and it seemed to stay no matter what I did including:

- Turning off all connections except for the "phone" part that allows me to make/receive phone calls.

- Flashing to different ROMS, including the stock TMOUS WinMO ROM.

- Changing the radio to all versions between 2.12 and 2.15

Why is this (I think) phone signal related?

- With any ROMs, I notice that the power consumption when the phone is in use is absolutely normal. However, whenever it goes into standby:

+ When I put the phone into airplane mode, I lost 1% in 4 hours.

+ When I turn on ONLY the "phone" part (all other connections are off), I lost again 7%-10% per hour.

I bet you notice too, when you put your phone near a (computer) speaker, you here some sort of noise since the phone has to deal with the reception. Normally, I heard the noise every 15 minutes or so. But as soon as this battery issue arises, I heard this noise every 30 seconds.

Therefore, my bet is when the phone goes into standby, somehow it has to struggle with the phone signal. Note that I have full bars at my place and there's nothing I can complain about the call quality at my place. ZetaiZetsubou has reported battery drain in NO SIGNAL area, where as in my case, I have full bars.

What this is NOT about

- This is not about SD card models since it happens with and without my sd card in the phone.

- This is not the usual -60mA battery drain on Android issue that many other users have reported (that can be solved by turning off some connections, then restart, etc) since it happens even with the stock WinMo ROM.

- This is not a ROM/platform specific issue since it happens with both Android ROMs and WinMo ROMs. So far I've tried:

+ [ROM-ZIP] Different versions of MIUI

+ [ROM-ZIP] TMOUS - CMYLXGO's Stock Desire HD

+ [ROM-ZIP] imilka's Desire HD Rom

+ Kumar's Windows Mobile Roms

+ (Lates) Stock TMOUS Windows Mobile Rom

- This shouldn't be a radio specific issue since I tried all versions between 2.12 and 2.15.

- This is not because the battery went bad since I've tried two additional replacement batteries.

Help, please!!!

I wonder if any one has got into this situation? All advices on probable causes/solutions are very much appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] caliber177:
I looked around some hands on videos of the Sensation and looked closely at the App Drawer... and did not see a Wifi Calling app.... maybe im wrong...

Anyone know if this device includes Wifi Calling?
[HTC Sensation] Lootes:
i would guess that it will have it. In Barcelona earlier this year T-Mo stated it's commitment to wi-fi calling and that it planned on having it on all future smartphone devices.
[HTC Sensation] piimp:
yeah i would be pretty upset if it didn't have it since all the recent smartphones they've put out have this. I just got the feature added to my plan and im always in wifi areas, well i make alot of calls from home and with this i would rarely ever use my minutes.
[HTC Sensation] siamchen:
Android 2.3 has integrated SIP call function in dailer. Otherwise, you can use free SIP software from market. You also can use GTalk for internet call.
[HTC Sensation] niceman2005:
Use Fring to make calls (video and voice). support conference call.
[HTC Sensation] lukexe:
Yes the Sensation does in fact have WiFi Calling. I use it every day.
[HTC Sensation] Jjday7:
I was wondering if any of you can tell me if the wifi calling takes away from your plan minutes? I am hearing no from third parties and I am hearing yes directly from tmobile. Really thinking about switching to tmobile due to sprints horrible service where I recently moved to. It just might make sense to do it with this option.
[HTC Sensation] lukexe:
Yes, With WiFi calling you use up your plans minutes.
[HTC Sensation] SiL3nTKiLL:
thats dumb lol, using plan minutes when using wifi calling..wtf is the point!
[HTC Sensation] Jjday7:
thanks for the reply. That is pretty stupid. This would be a great option for those who don't have to best coverage and the extra option of not using minutes would make it over the top. Oh well, maybe I will get a airave from sprint and stay where I'm at.
[HTC Sensation] shorty87:
I've heard that if you have a newer plan (not a grandfathered plan) with T-Mobile, they can add on free WiFi Calling which does not take away minutes from your plan.
[HTC Sensation] caliber177:
Originally, and by default, it used to be that wifi calling deducted minutes from your regular plan... im not sure if the newer plans come with the wifi calling free plan.... but for me, since I already had a grandfathered plan, I just had to call Tmobile up, and request Free Wifi Calling, and then they enabled it, for free.
[HTC Sensation] silentsnow31802:
If you talk to tmobile customer support online or over the phone you can have a service added to your plan so that WiFi calling does not use your minutes. It will say "uses plan minutes" on your phone still but it actually will not.

EDIT: Haha caliber177 beat me to it!
[HTC Sensation] silentsnow31802:
SOB double post... whoops...
[HTC Sensation] Jjday7:
Here is what the wirefly website says. I know they are not tmobile but I'm just saying.

"WiFi Calling will allow you to make calls over a Wi-Fi network without deducting from your plan minutes. Android handsets will continue to display a message that indicates that calls will be deducted from plan minutes. However, if this feature is active, calls will be free and unlimited over Wi-Fi."
[HTC Sensation] mayhem1983:
Capable device and Wi-Fi connection required. Wi-Fi calling decrements plan minutes. Except for UMA devices, device will not transition between Wi-Fi and the wireless network.

Thats what it says when you go to the wifi calling page on the t-mobile site! If you go to this link here http://smart-wi-fi.com/mobileHandsetsHTCSensation.php Its a UMA device.
[HTC Sensation] lukexe:
I'm stoked to finally have cell service at my house. I doesn't bug me one bit having to use my minutes and Wifi calling is a great feature most carriers don't use.

I feel like people are picking this device apart under a microscope just to find things to complain about. Yes we all know s-off will be the day it really comes out to shine but in the mean time just enjoy the phone.
