Hey guys, I got my Venue today, it's awesome. I've already rooted it, but I was wondering of all the Apps that are removable to make it safe to use.

Please advise, and thanks ahead of time!
[Dell Venue] Samver:
do not hurry, wait for the OS updates, now very difficult situation with the recovery of the firmware

I removed: "Twitter" and "Tune-In", because do not use it
[Dell Venue] thegreatcity:
I think the only thing I kept was Tune-in (as far as Dells bloat, I don't really touch the stock Android apps). Everything has been running smoothly so far. You can also safely freeze the apps you don't wish to use.
[Dell Venue] Omnichron:
Amazon mp3, Street view, Social Networking service, :)
[Dell Venue] j_mullet:
I managed to remove all the above mentioned apps as well as the dell stage ui. That being said when I tried to do a factory restore the phone bricked, and I had to download a recovery image that the manni had posted to revive my phone.
[Dell Venue] Omnichron:
yeah. I removed everything possible including unnecessary system services (if unsure look up sys service being removed to make sure you're not bricking phone). Left Dell UI alone though. When I did a factory reset it booted up fine. very clean. I used Titanium Backup to do the dirty work for me.:)

edit: do not remove google services or market though. removing gmail, Facebook works ok. then you can install a moded version of them

hi,

i have SE x10i and i downloaded some apps in the market and my phone suddenly restarts... and i flash it on SE PC companion and its now ok

the problem is that when ever i charge the phone the battery heats up and then my phone also heats up and shuts down... i get the battery out for some few minutes to cool down and then it gets ok.. but because i want to charge the battery but still same problem..

what should i do??:cool:

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToonXW:
Are you heavily using the phone (gaming, watching videos, streaming, surfing the net) while charging?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kindred7:
Install setcpu and use a temperature trigger of 50C (or what you want) to limit the cpu.

Mine is set for 768Mhz.

And if you are using it while its charging try not to cup the back of the phone, you trap the heat.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silveraero:
If it keeps shutdown when you charge, you should bring it to SE service. Maybe this is hardware problems.

where can i DL such apps that can normalize the cpu's temperature..

i cant charge normally because as what i have said

it heats up and shutsdown thee phone..

Aw man that sucks, keep in mind your battery life will get worse if its heated too much.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nucleus55:
yeah really really sucks.. i cant normally charge with my charger

coz when the temperature rises it will stop charging ang the phone restarts or automatically off...

thats why i need your opinions! please..

i dont think this is a hardware problem because

this is brand new... and i dont use it agressively...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -- X10B --:
Not all brand new devices are in perfect shape. There's always a factory defective one..

Try consulting your problem at any service center of S.E. or ask for a replacement. As you said its a brand new device it has warranty.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nucleus55:
whats the solution??
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dta1eros:
Hi Nucleus55,

Although i'm relatively new to xda, i'm also relatively "old" to h/w related problems, so here's is one piece of advise if you like.

As stated also from other member's previously "-- X10B --", if the phone's temp rises to a degree where it auto-reboots and stops charging, and if this occurs every single time, then you should probably replace it from your nearest SE shop. Especially if it is new and under warranty. As stated from "-- X10B --" there is always the possibility of a h/w error or in construction and/or design flaw in that specific model. You never know.

Personally, i got this "batterylife" widget (from market) which shows battery status and temp, and for me, when i charge my phone, it has never gone above 40 degrees Celsius while idle (charging only) and up to (MAX) 48 while under heavy stress during charging, like games, videos, etc.

I have never seen it gone to 50 degrees.

You could also do as previously stated by "kindred7", that is, install an application and set the max degree to 50 degrees, although i strongly recommend (this is always my personal opinion), when it comes to ALL electronics, to always keep them as cool as possible. If this is not possible, because you tend to stress it all the time either from games or videos, then you could find a better cooling solution, like maybe removing its cover while charging.

I have just tried it myself about a half an hour ago to see if there is any change in temp, and i have noticed that in my work space where the ambient temp is around 25 degrees, the phone while charging and uncovered, was stable at 38 degrees Celsius.

Also, if you a lot of functions ON like Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, then it is obvious that the phone temp will rise to its max. If so, then try to disable any things you don't need, not only while charging but always.

That's all that i can think of right now
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zillionaire:
this has happened to me after i updated my x10i to 2.3.3 .. the battery life has just got worse and sometimes while heavy use the battery temp rises very much.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ThatJawn:
So, after having my fix of Android, I've decided to move onto a Windows phone. Just to expierence something new. Hopefully picking up the AT&T HD7s tomorrow, any reviews on that to start out?

But as the topic states, have a few questions that wil most likely refer to android since ofcourse I'm more familiar with that.

First things first, is there a thing as such as rooting/jailbreaking a Windows phone?

What about roms?

Also, i've read a lot about the Mango update, do most phones have that now?

And finally, whats your favorite feature, and what are some good apps to have that the Android market doesnt really have.

I appreciate anyone who answers all of this. I'll toss a thanks because I am sure there are threads out there that answer all this, but it'd be nice to have a few collective thoughts all in once place.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thorgx57:
Hello guys! I've been reading these forums for a long time, amazing what you guys do in here :D

Here is my problem: I live in México, and I traveled to USA for summer vacation, my mexican mobile phone carrier uses 850mhz (TELCEL) and when I went to USA it was using ATT's network.

So everything was working fine, but when I returned just before I was about to cross the border, it stoped working! :(

It has a message that says ''Emergency calls only'' where it's supposed to say ''TELCEL GSM'', so no internet, no calls, no messages.

I was using Froyo on my phone, and thought of doing a reset to restore factory settings on the phone, but it did not work :/

Then I updated my phone to Darky's Rom 10.2 (Gingerbread) and it's still not working!

When I go to Settings>Wireless and network>Mobile networks>Network operators I can see that my carrier is available to select, but when I try to, it gives me a ''Unable to connect. Try later'' msg.

It is really frustrating because I depend on my phone so much, mainly because I share my 3G connection to my laptop for school's work and stuff.

There's one weird thing though, I unlocked my phone, and placed a MOVISTAR(1900mhz) SIM card on it, AND IT WORKS!!!

But the thing is that I don't have internet on that SIM card(is prepaid and it's EDGE, not 3G), and on my TELCEL SIM card I have a contract to complete (still a year to go).

When I put my SIM card on someone else's phone, it works like a charm, but if I try to put a TELCEL (850mhz) SIM on my galaxy; just says ''Only emergency calls''

What do you guys think happened to my phone? I would really appreciate your help.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlockhart:
flash a new modem... one that contains more frequencies enabled.. any bell or telus will do.

UGKC1 modem should fix your problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thorgx57:
It did not work, should I keep trying with other modems? :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlockhart:
you can.. jk4 or jl2 are other modems with 850 and 1900 enabled... maybe your problem is different then I thought... but it sounds like your modem... maybe try unlocking your phone? if you can connect to wifi download sgs unlocker pro (paid app) in the market to unlock, your phone also needs to be rooted. are you using the i9000T? that may be different problem altogether...

edit: sorry I see you said it is unlocked... just doesn't sound like it...

a) modem related (ugkc1) should have fixed that

b) SIM carrier not compatible to phone (unlock phone to fix)

c) Busted SIM card, check in other phone

d) make sure phone option is set to Automatic CDMA/GSM

sounds like you checked everything I would check....

does your 3G work... make sure your VPN is setup to your carrier

[Verizon Droid Charge] Homestar1217:
I'm having a very strange problem with my Charge. It seems like pretty much every other time I unlock my phone, a color from the RGB spectrum is missing. Which in turn causes the screen to be a weird shade of blue, green or red. I can lock and unlock the phone again and it will be totally normal, but as I stated above, it seems like it's happening quite a lot more often here recently, and I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem? I know I'm going to call Verizon tonight or tomorrow and see about getting a replacement because it's definitely not a software issue that I can see.
[Verizon Droid Charge] BeefJerky9:
I had that happen once, and only once. However, it hasn't happened since then, so I'm pretty sure it was software related. Have you done a hard reset yet? If not, you need to do that to rule out a software issue. You need to try it for a bit in that clean state before loading 3rd party software to confirm.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mko1:
I have the same problem, which just started this morning. When I woke up and looked at my phone, as it unlocked, sometimes it had a bluish or greenish tint. This would appear intermittently as I unlocked my phone.

I searched the internet, and found other instances of this happening as well.

I restarted my phone, and the problem hasn't returned since. Something to keep an eye on, but I'm hoping it's not hardware related, but rather software related (and can be fixed with a reboot).

Mko.
[Verizon Droid Charge] moondrius:
I had that happen a couple times. I have not seen it in a long time but it is software related. I could get it to do it a whole lot one day and after a reboot it never happened again.

[Verizon Droid Charge] trigun123478:
For me when I unlock the phone it does a black screen with lines for a second,pretty much 5 out of 10 times I unlock my phone. I've already got a replacement charge,so my old one and the new one do it. I'm sending my phone to Samung because Verizon has sent me two charges with scatches on the screen, one also has a dead pixel.
[Verizon Droid Charge] GreenMunky:
Only had the weird color thing happen once upon unlocking several weeks ago. Locked and unlocked it again and it was normal again. Haven't had it happen again.
[Verizon Droid Charge] DJsRed:
I had this happen to me pretty consistently when. I tried running GummyCharged GBE. Rebooting didn't work for me, so I went back to GummyCharged FE, and that's what solved the problem for me, but it's possible that reflashing GBE may have done the trick too. I never tried that because I thought the issue was related to the ROM.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Homestar1217:
Well I called Verizon, and while they didn't have it listed as a known issue, I was told to reboot because it was more than likely a software issue. I did just that and haven't had this happen since.

Having said that, I noticed something else, the screen was at a different brightness nearly every time I unlocked it and it wasn't a funny color. Either full on 100% or dim as could be, never anywhere in between. I also stumbled upon an article from a lesser known tech site that suggested that the auto-brightness function was indeed the culprit. Seems to make perfect sense given what I saw. I've had this happen once in a blue moon before the other day, and as others stated after a lock/unlock all was well, but this was a different experience altogether. Hopefully this software problem can be fixed with an update (GB maybe? Probably right as they release Ice Cream Sandwich...).

As a side note my screen also does the gray lines once in a while, just 2 or 3 down the whole length of the screen for a split second before an unlock. Seems like it's not an issue so far.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
