Most of us begin to share the viewpoint that a software tuning of the microphone can very likely be only a covering workaround...

Another thought: why we don't meet with devices produced in 11W33 and onwards?

- all of them are OK?

- the production was stopped till a hardware revision took place?

That's why we have heard those 'out of stock' reports related to Xperia Mini Pro-s (phones4you, India, etc.)? This week more potential customers reported that phones with official 2-year manufacturer guarantees are frequently out of stock...

I have KW33 (my third mini pro replacement unit...).

It's strange that there's no news about this issue on any mobile web page. When Samsung screw up their android updates it was all ovet the web, but this thing is only on few discussion areas. I think Sony has screwd bigger than Samsung, I still think this is a hardware-fail, not a software and if gsm-arena or some else would make a offical news about this, it would really help those people who are thinking of buying this product. Maybe it would make Sony to hurry just a little bit more, that us who are already bought this phone, would have clearer answers too...

"We’ve just got a word from the official LG Optimus PH facebook page regarding the release of the official Gingerbread update for LG Optimus 2x and Optimus One.

According to LG Optimus PH, The official Gingerbread update will be going live from early October while Optimus One users should be able to download and install the Gingerbread update starting early September. Read the official announcement after the break.".

So October is is then. I am kinda disappointed by LG (again!) that they missed a September release. But better later than never.
[LG Optimus 2x] -rumburak-:
Well, i already have an optimus one that i have updated to the official gingerbread several weeks ago.

But talking with LG support few minutes ago (in France), they told me that the gingerbread upgrade for 2x is planned in last quarter of 2011. So might as well be october.

You are not creating the contact under your google account. When you are in contacts and create new, you get a list of options. One is create under google account, which gets synced, the other is phone only which doesn't sync.

Are you able to back up your contacts and then import them into Gmail? I know you can back them into a .vcf file onto your SD card, but I don't know if you can import that file into Gmail.

Right before I got an Android phone, I backed up all my contacts into VZW, then exported them as a .csv file, then imported them into Gmail. It takes a little longer, but worked.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Accord281:
Yes a vcf file will work. That is how I did it. Worked wonders.

Yajinni, I've had the same problem with my HTC Sensation since purchasing it 3 weeks ago. People tell me I sound muffled and like I'm under water. And other times it's clear for a moment then goes muffled again.

still sitting on stock rom cuz the dev roms for the gsm are no where near polished enough no offence i know it's all a matter of personal preference but i use some of the bloatware that the devs all remove and the camera isn't all it's cracked up to be in most roms stock is fine on top of that i bought the phone for the 3d so why get a rom that barely uses it
[Xperia Play General] opdrago:
hey

im a new xperia play user and i got a few questions.

which rom for now is the best?

(please link me the instruction and rom file)

before im downloading a new rom to the device should i root it first?

my current spec

:

model number R800i, android ver. 2.3.2

baseband 7x30A-AAABQMAZM-1290_14-10

KERNEL 2.6.32.9-PERF SEMCUSER@SEMCHOST#1

BUILD NUMBER 3.0.A.2.181
[Xperia Play General] opdrago:
answer please?
[Xperia Play General] dsswoosh:
The ROM scene seems slow and complicated at the moment for the XPlay. Different versions of the phone needing different ROM installations, Sony blocking this, that and the other. High chance to brick......

For this reason i went back to 2.3.3 (unrooted).

Apart from being able to overclock and get rid of a bit of bloatware, both of which are not really necessary, i don't see any reason just yet to install new ROMS (or even root for that matter).

I wont update to 2.3.4 until it becomes officially available either. (Few weeks yet i beleive).

1) I have only a STOCK rom (one big tar file)

I want to extract the CSC package from this rom and flash it to another..

how can I do that?

2) also does modem.bin from the stock rom is the same as phone/baseband? can I flash it as "PHONE" in ODIN?

3) Does any modem works with every firmware? is't better to stay with the carrier modem? will it work withe another?

4) What about CSC? any advantage to use the carrier's csc? will it still work with another?

thank you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuvi123:
1) I don't have my carrier CSC on the Dev section..

Is there any way to extract CSC from rom .bin files before flashing it?

please I have techinical knowlege and I know how to extract/mount etc..

2) I asked this because a lot of users said to me to flash it as PDA if the modem is in bin extension (and not tar).

you said to flash it as "Phone" so I trust you.

3) I know that the general rule is any modem with any firmware but still - can it be a condition in which the carrier modem (for me it's JHKG2) will work perfectly and an updated modem (KH3 for example) will make problems (like internet speed, calling quality etc..) ? or such condition will not happen?

this is why I'm asking if there is adavantage to use carrier modem and not the last modem - because I don't thingthe carrier put this version of the modem for no reason..

4) so CSC has only network settings - no other things?

there is a problem with my phone - after every power off and on, I need to register to my network operators again, so maybe the CSC operator will help in this case.

thank you.

[Acer Iconia A500] TheDroidProject:
I have Acer Iconia Tab A500 running on Honeycomb 3.1. I needed to replace its software. So what I did was:

1) Rooted my device with that - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1138228

2) downloaded and installed AcerRecoveryInstaller - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.interphaze.AcerRecoveryInstaller

3) downloaded DextersGalaxyA500-p1 and DextersGalaxyA500-p1-avi-patch from http://dext3r.komodin.org/

4) Copyed them to my internal memory, the downloaded app which allowed me to copy to SDCard and copyed to SD card.

5) started AcerRecoveryInstaller and clicked boot into recovery.

6) selected install from SD card

7) selected DextersGalaxyA500-p1.zip

8) install started

9) intall ended and boots (samsung logo) wohooo happy!

10) what the hell is this? Some noise coming from speaker, apps are not responding, device ultra slow - unusable.

11) somehow manage to open AcerRecoveryInstaller click boot into recovery - BOOM! android logo with warning sign, waits about 5 mins then reboots to OS. Thats it.

+ also when I turn of the device, hold power button+sound til the text comes to the corner i get an android logo + warning sign icon, this time its bit different icon. Waits about 5 mins then reboots to OS.

What have I done wrong and how to fix it?
[Acer Iconia A500] pattiman:
Did you wipe everything, like (dalvik)cache, before installing the new ROM?

Did you check the MD5 checksum on the downloaded ROM?

Can you get into recovery and try to install a different ROM?
[Acer Iconia A500] spazmodik:
Try putting a stock Acer update.zip in the root folder of your micro sd card and then use standard Acer upgrade procedures to get back to stock. (i.e hold the power and vol+ button while booting).

Should that not work, I'd try to do a complete factory reset / wipe using the rotation lock method described elsewhere in this forums. (sorry I cant recall the exact order of things well enough to quote them but a quick search will find them... ).
[Acer Iconia A500] TheDroidProject:
1) No

2) No. With what should I compare it (dext3r.komodin.org didn't give out MD5 hash codes)

3) Luckyly, I found out that I can (had to hold start+volume up little bit longer)

What should I do now? Select: "wipe data/factory reset" + "wipe cache partition" + and then install from SD card again?
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Pretty much, yes.. You should always do this when installing a different ROM. It's often OK for new versions of the same ROM, but between different ROMs you must wipe your device or you risk problems.
