[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ArbiterGR:
Oops :P I totally forgot to post back. Yes they are awesome. Got 2 packs of 2 screenprotectors (and they give +1 for free with each purchase, making it a total of 6 items).

The screen protector applies easily on the surface and it's bubble free as they advertise. The plus is that since it attaches to the screen by exploiting the static electricity, you can put it out anytime, clean it and attach it back.

Also swiping with my fingers on the protected screen, feels smooth and nice.

I recommend them!

ps: I live in Athens, Greece and the delivery took only 3 business days.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] MarkMRL:
I tried a few different roms, and the multitouch is completely broken in all of them.

Now, I was wondering, is the multitouch on the X10 Mini broken by default or it should work?

While single touch works perfectly on my device, multitouch is broken. I tried the multitouch tester program from Market and while the first touch point is always pretty much right, the second one jumps all over the place. Moving both fingers at once doesn't work and results in both points jumping all over the screen. Games that require multitouch (like Slice It) are unplayable. Pinch to Zoom (that imo is way inferior to the old way of zooming from the stock rom) barely works at all, and it completely unprecise.

Is it my screen (or digitizer, whatever it's called) borked or it's the multitouch on this device impossible to have working right?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Theshawty:
Multitouch is NEVER EVE EVER EVER possible on the X10 Mini as it is since the digitizer doesn't support it. it only supports single touch and some kind of pinch zoom, but that's it. No way in hell The X10 Mini can support Multiouch unless you switch hardware.

HOWEVER!! The X10 Mini PRO supports dualtouch at max, thanks to its Cypress Truetouch 3 digitizer.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] MarkMRL:
Then why do they keep adding that fake dualtouch support in MiniCM roms for the X10 mini? It doesn't even work. I'm not an expert on programming or whatever, but I feel like with all the efforts they probably put into creating the "fake dualtouch" for the X10 Mini they could have ported the Zoom function of the stock picture viewer to other apps that used zoom instead of that absurd pinch to zoom.

Of course I don't want to insult the developers, but I feel like their efforts were wasted as it's pretty much unusable.

I found one page written by koush himself.:cool:

hello everyone, i have a problem about gtalk from xoom. i have a xoom 32G wifi and system version is honeycomb 3.2 and rooted，the ROM what i installed is basic on Tiamat Xoom Rom 2.1. But no gtalk and mail,and i find and install Gmail apk,it works well. but i dont find gtalk apk.so does anyone could send me gtalk.apk for 3.2 thanks so much!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cyanics2:
not sure if anyone else will have noticed this, so I am curious if anyone has more information on it.

We have a DECT 6ghz baby monitor, that the other day I happened to place my G2x on top of while walking around the house. When I put my phone onto of it, suddenly the Car Mode was engaged.

I know that some phones (HD2) have an 'active car cradle' that will allow you to engage car mode automatically when docked, but I didn't think this was a feature that was built into the G2x.

Does anyone have any more information on it? I tried the same on my wifes Mytouch4G, and that didn't cause the same results.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] namklak:
Car Mode also activates when I put it in my belt case that has a magnetic close on the cover. I thought I found a thread where someone was sure the car holder had a magnet, and the G2x was designed to sense that magnet and activate Car Mode. Some day when I finally root my phone, I'm going to post a question (although I'll probably find it in a search of the forums) on how to NOT START Car Mode at boot, or kill Car Mode or what ever.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mojorisin7178:
I have the same problem just go to the settings apps select car home and then force close it the. It won't bother you again till you restart the phone. XDA App

update, gingerbread ota disables magnetic carmode

I finally decided to let the gingerbread ota update get applied, I had been using cm7 rc1. The new ota disables the magnetic sensor ( I thought it was the radio, erroniously)

Kind of interesting that this feature is removed. Strange thing was that it had a lot to do with the distance and intensity of the magnet. No other magnet I could find would activate car mode.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bls2633:
Im glad I stumbled upon this thread cause I have been driving myself nuts trying to figure out how I keep starting car mode retrieving my phone from the holster.:confused:

[About XDA developers] buffalosolja42:
Yeah I just thought that would be another option

Whats up CajunBob!! You ready for some football and what device you got now (sorry to be off topic when I was 6.5'n it Bob was there with me :) )
[About XDA developers] cajunflavoredbob:
Can't really go off topic in your own thread. ;)

I'm trying to finish up the last of my work early so I can get out a celebrate. I'm still in WM. I can't seem to leave. I've got AmericanAndroid on my Leo, but Android still isn't for me. WP7 is way too limited for my liking as well. Glad I could help out again. :)
[XPERIA X8 General] Aiduharan:
I got it cos it was cheap and better than the ZTE phone, and back then SE had a good reputation. And I thought any android phone will do.

I didn't know about XDA and roms back then but if then that would have been a reason,too.

So what was your reason to buy this phone?
[XPERIA X8 General] MXR2:
bought it becoz SE did a promo in my country(Malaysia). first 8 who Q up for it will get to buy the phone for RM8.00 (approx US$2.50) lol. so happen im lucky #7 xD
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
I bought it because in my country its much cheaper than any other Android phone. BTW I'm not regret it :) I love it.
[XPERIA X8 General] Dare-Devil Inside:
I bought it because it was a very good phone for a reasonable price. (and because I smashed my Nokia N95) :D

A the time I didn't know for xda, but now when I found out for custom roms... it's like an another phone worth double it's price ;)
[XPERIA X8 General] Aiduharan:
lucky guy, getting a phone for near free
[XPERIA X8 General] roobal:
I bought it because x8 got very good price / functionality ratio in my opinion. Then SE just leave it unsupported. Fortunately I found out XDA and awesome roms by doixanh. Now I'm pretty happy with my phone.
[XPERIA X8 General] codfreak:
I got it as a christmas present.

It´s my first phone with touchscreen and the first with Android.
[XPERIA X8 General] nigi2010:
I bought it beacuse it was the best for it's price-1 euro
[XPERIA X8 General] _JoaoCampos:
Pretty much the same, bought it on a "Black Monday" promotion @ Portugese Vodafone that made X8 the cheapest Android phone on the market considering it's specs...
[XPERIA X8 General] orangzeb:
I 2nd that
[XPERIA X8 General] josephnero:
me too man.and another reason i got x8 is because i love SE phones but hadnt much money
[XPERIA X8 General] Chris_Castro:
No particular reason. But now I love it!! Ever since I rooted...b4 was boring.
[XPERIA X8 General] josip-k:
I my brother bought a stolen one and when he got x10 mini pro for his 18 birthday he gave it to me.this is the best phone i ever had and probably the best one i will have.cuz i cannot affort anything else.i probably wouldnt have x8,but i had luck.so yea,i really know how to appreciate things,and im more than happy with this phone.
[XPERIA X8 General] nrgmaster:
I bought it because it was the only android I could afford lol !! But like some others I found xda and it changed my whole world, all of a sudden my little android became too powerful !!!!
[XPERIA X8 General] Sebihunter:
I bought it due to really wanting to have an Android smartphone (my old Sony Ericcson Walkman annoyed me due to not being able to do stuff like custom roms, etc. ). After looking at loads of reviews, several price comparisons and if there is any Gingerbread rom available for this device, I finally bought it via amazon ;)

Still using Floyo though although I might upgrade to GingerDX in the near future :D
[XPERIA X8 General] emms:
i swapped x10 mini pro, locked to o2 for x8 simfree, maybe some will think im stupid but i think i made good choice, i use x8 as modem / send sms from pc, thats about it, i have big hands its not very pratical for me in every day use. so i got it really to take advantage of the £15 month all you can eat data plan on Three, witch is truely unlimited.
[XPERIA X8 General] Spevky:
Good looks ,cheap ,android.
[XPERIA X8 General] Droid117:
Couldn't have said it better myself. :D
[XPERIA X8 General] damian824:
i bought it because of its hardware and its price, and better still because i saw all the custom roms and stuff it had, so marazing, i bought it for its potential.

At first i thought it was ugly, but then saw the black version and it became 90% more beautyfull. the white one just wasn't that nice at sight.

There were others at the same price range with similar hardware and specs but this was just the best overall. the motorola one's (dont remember the model, b alike) screen was just to small, and the galaxy mini was too short of specs
[XPERIA X8 General] Nikkopt:
Same here :) the other option was the LG GT540 which is inferior..
[XPERIA X8 General] deani77:
My first reason was migrating to Android. Second, reasonable price for Android phone and lastly because there is X8 thread here in XDA Dev
[XPERIA X8 General] afifrohiki:
price, android, cute.

after bought it, i'm happy the speaker sounds good
[XPERIA X8 General] lukewong01:
WTF = =..so lucky...damn..i bought it for rm5++...

where that campaign was held?....KL?
[XPERIA X8 General] droidgg:
Cause I didn't had enough cash for a X10 during purchase hahhas :D
[XPERIA X8 General] ahmadsamhann:
First reason is, I want to try Android. my friend encouraged me to buy it. After making some search/surveying, seems like X8 was affordable. (I work hard to buy this phone, tbh).
[XPERIA X8 General] samyeung97hk:
I bought it because it's cheaper than HTC Wildfire,also,the spec is much better than Wildfire.

I did have some regret on buy X8, because I bought it in March, 1 months later we have Galaxy Ace, which is better than X8(I think).

But it's a good experience on Android using x8. Because I'm a newbie of android that time, it is a good machine that you would OC/UV without worried to kill x8(cos' it's cheap!)
[XPERIA X8 General] DougTheModder:
I bought it because in my country there is a very cool offer with Three (H3G Operator): you only pay 59 euro for the phone and a sim card with 2€ credit in it.

Moreover, if you decide using the phone (which is operator lock) only with the sim paired when purchasing, you get 5€/month for 18 months, so at the end you get 92€, and the phone for just 59. Oh, and the first 2 months you have free internet! :D

P.S. this offer is reserved to people coming from an other operator and doing MNP... I'm so lucky that a shop gave me a vodafone sim with 5 euro as a gift!!! :D

At the end: 97€, a phone that is unlockable for free after 18 months (just in time with the end of the offer) for only 59 euro.

OH, btw, this is not my only phone, my principle one is a Nokia N95, which I find better for texting and photos!
[XPERIA X8 General] josephnero:
its the best for who want to check android out
[XPERIA X8 General] SEPMarcos:
Cuz it's a cheap Xperia and it comes with Androis OS!
[XPERIA X8 General] monu09:
cause i love se phone

and display quality is best to samsung ,htc,lg

touch quality best after iphone

price is good
[XPERIA X8 General] BITOx:
I wanted an Android phone but I had bad experiences with touchscreen phones. So I wanted to buy the X10 Mini Pro because of the qwerty keyboard.

But, I noticed that X8 had a much better size and also a better price.

I took a Christmas promotion and bought it immediately :P
[XPERIA X8 General] CanoChen:
I bought x8 to have a try on Android. Coz x8 is cheap and has all the functions I wanted.

However, giving a chance now, maybe I would rather choose s5830 or defy
[XPERIA X8 General] SpyderX:
Bad news to all: doixanh posted on gingerdx thread that he is leaving. :(

My X8 suddenly fell in value by about £9999999999999999...*99999999999999999999....
[XPERIA X8 General] yenoh:
I buy X8 because it is the cheapest phone with android! :D

[XPERIA X8 General] soxfor:
Same here. (:

Was on promotion and needed a new phone. Already wanted something with Android, so, i bought it.
[XPERIA X8 General] pereira2088:
average phone for the price of a low end device? count me in!

was in doubt between a SE x8 and the Nokia 5800. but the price of the second was too high.

besides, it's a Sony Ericsson <(^^,)>
[XPERIA X8 General] override187:
I bought it because I wanted android and I did not want to spend lots of money and a good price / quality ratio
[XPERIA X8 General] st3ch:
i liked how it looked (dark blue and black), its size and because I was using a k800i for the last four and a half years :)
[XPERIA X8 General] qaz.xc:
I Bought because at the time i needed a cellphone and this was fine for me, at the time i dont even knew what Android was..
[XPERIA X8 General] alphine.zzz:
i was lost on the phone market then i mate a god damn soner seller and recommend to buy it, i was so happy about this features, then i'm disappointed to this f*cking soner support.. I hope next year i can sell this phone about $100 - $120 in my country currency of course so i can buy a HTC one or another one..
[XPERIA X8 General] BigBearEvo:
I bought mine when se made it into the android market. Proved to be alot cheaper than HTC and reliable. Since I got this new rom...it's made the x8 come alive. Enter be giving this up for awhile yet

sent by my GingerDx X8 using Xda app
[XPERIA X8 General] fakhry7:

[XPERIA X8 General] bogdan_mihai554:
I bought it in december, i went to vodafone, and i asked one of the staff from vodafone: X8 has android 1.6, right? Him:yes Me: but you can upgrade it to 2.1?

He: Yes Me: So if i upgrade it to 2.1 will i have dual-touch HE: Yes

DAMN IT He Lied! :( also my phone has Synaptics touchpad :(.... i don't really care about the dualtouch, and X8 is an phone with great performance/price ratio
[XPERIA X8 General] m3nm3n:
It's a cheap android phone.. :confused:
[XPERIA X8 General] carv1:

[XPERIA X8 General] stedrum:
coz H3G store sell me at 49€:D (black)

cheap but: I'm not lucky: synaptic here!
[XPERIA X8 General] PherChe:
Well my little history.

I had a blackberry but i gave it to my sister cus she lost her phone, i got a postpaid service in line cellular line, so i decide to buy a new phone cheaper than prepaid, so i buy a Nokia with Symbian S60.... OMG!!! Symbian never changed, its the same OS that i knew some years ago... no apps, no great games... just if u but a Nokia with Symbian Anna or something like that xD so i was toooo angry and i take my phone and i put it on the garbage bye bye nokia so my cousin told me. hey u should try a Android Mobile... really so i was on the mobile store and i saw a SE's Xperia Series i saw the X10 OMG!!! i dont want a surf table!! and i saw the Mini's Series... i love my eyes i dont wanna use glasses too soon, so the seller show me the X8.... :eek: i like it... in color black... i want it, i want it... so

this is the little history why i have a Xperia X8 and i using the MiniCM 2.0.6 and i sooooo happy, more than the first day that i bought it =)
[XPERIA X8 General] leorimkus:
Very simple - X8 was the best Android offer at that time. Hate Nokia, hate iPhone :) And had nice experience with Ericsson before they messed with Sony.
[XPERIA X8 General] nagaya1:
i got a X8a for US$195(there was x10mini for US$185),it's dead cheap considering the functionality of the phone,great hardware for the price,and thanks to XDA devs i'm running 2.3.5 now,so got great phone for very cheap price
[XPERIA X8 General] sevoir:
Because cheap and nice ;-)
[XPERIA X8 General] ithunter:
cuz of economic :)
[XPERIA X8 General] PherChe:
...Amen! :D
[XPERIA X8 General] crinoz:
because its cheap in italy (49 Euro) and supported on xda :D
[XPERIA X8 General] G.Trenchev:
Because it's cheap so I don't care if lose or break it, which is quite plausible with me. Also it's pocketable like a real phone not some construction brick like 4''+ I can't carry around something like that.
[XPERIA X8 General] chal61:
Because it is a decent smartphone and it's so cheap here in Italy that it represented a wonderful attraction entering the android world.

The lack of a flash and optic zoom for the camera are the weakest point for this phone (for my needs of course), but I don't care that much.

I found that there was a nice active community working on it... XDA!

Unfortunately I'm getting older and I will need a bigger screen soon or buy a new pair of glasses...
[XPERIA X8 General] Mika Dee:
cheapest yet it so powerful smartphone.
[XPERIA X8 General] steevensk:
Yup, same as above. Cheap android mobile. That's all.
[XPERIA X8 General] swechrill:
I had a SE C702 and was quite happy with it. Then my girlfriend bought a X10mini and i got android-hooked. The screen on the mini was a little bit small but a new model named X8 was released at the same time. This was a perfect model for me. Cheap, small (but not too small), with adequate performance and nice looking, even if it was white (the black model was released later).

I have to say that im pleased with the X8 hardware. Its just a pity SE forgot about updating the android-version in this model. This phone has been cripled by old software from day one.

I think they have lost and are still loosing many customers as a result of this. I dont think i will buy a SE again, even if they make some nice new models today. I will allways feel a little bit scammed by them. I believe the X8 is the only phone in the market with the outdated and limited Eclair today. SE should be ashamed by this

I want to say THANKS to all developers at XDA for correcting Sony Ericssons misstake and show the true potential of this phone..
[XPERIA X8 General] nyan:
i bought it because it was cheap and i really wanted an android

but i regret that i spend so much of my wages on it

[XPERIA X8 General] sikeding25:
X8 is my first android phone. beside, i love modding SE phone. but, SE did not update X8 anymore, but the dev group does! thank you to them! not SE, ftw.
[XPERIA X8 General] K3lthuzad:
It was the best value at the time (about half a year ago), and it had support for my provider's band.

It was $170 back then, but I saw it the other day for $99 (AUD) at an Optus store. :(
[XPERIA X8 General] Bahurs1:
Cause I wanted to know the feel of a smartphone and because I din't know that it's limited to such...I'm getting a samsung or a cracked x10 or a neo or a play just to have it pushed over the limit not like this lonely device I have here. It's size is ideal! but the hardware isn't. So 1.7years left till the contract ends...I wish sony wasn't such a douche....
[XPERIA X8 General] squidlicker:
My friend had been given it by her mother. It was too technical for her and she was terrified of it so it sat in its box having only been turned on once. I gave her some drugs for it and it was mine. hahaha. :D

[XPERIA X8 General] q_silverflame:
i've tried symbian,winmo,bb and iOS. want to try out android but most of it is still expensive at that time(dont have lots of 2nd hand phone. i dont have lot of money). so i buy x8, the cheapest at that time. have fun for a couple of day, next week feel like want to smash this phone to the wall because of dull and laggy interface :P . luckily found xda and play with different rom. right now stick with gingerxperia :)
