@innovator84:

Open the build.prop in a text editor,change every "X8" to W8" and then reboot and have a look at settings-about phone again.
[XPERIA X8 General] -ReaL-:
please close this thread. Dont feed the trolls
[XPERIA X8 General] brapicoco:
i dont see trolling or any trolls in this thread because it located at the general section, no one is being assaulted.
[XPERIA X8 General] samyeung97hk:
W8 won't get an update, because it isn't a 'Xperia' series phone. It is a 'Walkman' with android system.

Edit: Who cares we don't have 2.3.4? CM 7.1.0-pre is on 2.3.5!
[XPERIA X8 General] innovator84:
Thanks for the tips... but it doesn't matter anyway...

the W8 is practically a X8 with a walkman logo on it.. :)
[XPERIA X8 General] samyeung97hk:
Yes you're right, W8 is a X8 with a walkman logo. But W8 isn't a 'Xperia' series phone, so it won't get a update too.
[XPERIA X8 General] dmcb123:
x8 wont be updated to 2.3 because its not a 2011 xperia phone its a 2010 xperia smartphone. and as @samyeung97hk already said the w8 isnt an xperia phone at all its a walkman. its sad but true we wont be getting official 2.3 :(
[XPERIA X8 General] Mika Dee:
Well I guess its only the packaging of w8. Its like LG Optimus and its glossy version.
[XPERIA X8 General] MatthewWu:
So, w8 OUT @ XPERIA 2011, WHY THAT PHONE DOESN'T GET ANY UPGRADE?? AND I DON'T HEAR ANY NEWS THAT W8 NOT UPGRADEABLE.

(SORRY CAPS LOCK)
[XPERIA X8 General] SpyderX:
It probably won't get an update as the x8 won't get an update. If the W8 gets an update us x8 users should get an update too because W8 firmware is virtually identical to x8 firmware. But SE has mentioned that x8 will not get update so W8 users probably will not get an update.
[XPERIA X8 General] samyeung97hk:
As I said earlier in this thread, W8 isn't a 'Xperia' series phone. Although it's spec/firmware are the same, it won't get an update either.

Edit: Every Android phones are upgradable if the spec allows/have devs to develop firmware.

Which is the best internet browser to you ? Thanks :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neil.garsuta:
Dolphin HD Browser
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RazKidd:
Why is that your Favorite ?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
I just started using xScope Pro, and I have to say I prefer this over any other browsers I have used including Dolphin and Opera.

If you don't want to give xScope a try, I would say go with Dolphin as a second choice.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RazKidd:
why is that one good ?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccrows:
I use the stock version, and Opera Mobile the most.

Never got into Dolphin/HD that much, and used to love Skyfire until they starting charging for using flash. Latest updates made Skyfire more buggy too...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spiderx_mm:
Stock Browser is my favorite. sometimes, I use Miren browser.

https://market.android.com/details?id=cn.miren.browser&hl=en
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suleiman.aql:
Dolphin mini, has taps and more
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xploited:
Stock.

And yes, I tried to use pretty much every browser on the market... and I always come back to stock. :D
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moorzel:
I'm also using stock.

It's the best. Everything is working...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rickroller:
Opera Mobile has been the best imo. Tabbed browsing made easy..flash..option for Desktop so no more redirecting to mobile sites. IMO Opera is the fastest i've used. Stock tabbed browsing sucks imo..and Dolphin HD seems a little slow to me..almost bloated. I've also used Dolphin Mini for the odd site..
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbabiuk:
I quite like Dolphin HD. I started using it as back ages ago I didn't have flash running on my android tablet unless I used this browser. IT kind of became my first choice on my phone. I also like the interface, the speed, and the finger gesture browsing.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] belig1234:
Dolphin Browser HD

Because Dolphin is quicker than the original browser and it's easier to switch between tabs...

I use it since 2-3 months and I never had a force close !

For me it's really the best browser in the android Market :p
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OSNPA:
With CM7 PB2, dolphin hd and Miren foul up the flash for me. I have used opera mobile and the CM7 stock browser, and I can't come up with enough reasons not to use the stock one.

Sent from my MIUI themed CM7 Atrix
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
I like the "feel" of xScope. I have found it to be the smoothest and by far the fastest browser I have used. Has just the right amount of options without going into overkill, and for me the tabbed browsing works best with xScope Pro.

At the end of the day it is all down to personal preference. I kept going back to stock, then Dolphin, then back to stock, yadda yadda..............Haven't wanted to go back to stock since I installed this one.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deggy:
I'm currently using Dolphin HD also. I like the easier access to the tabs at the top. The speed dial home of DHD is very handy and convienent. I'm not into gesturing in any bit but I'm sure other people would ultilize it more than me.

I tried the Opera mini one but didn't like the "scrunched" up look of it. The website/pages didn't look right or how it's suppose to be.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iRobby:
I like the stock browser.. tried out dolphin browser and ut was really cool but it didn't seem ti perform as well for me
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sacah:
After trying them all I stuck with Skyfire as the fastest with all round compatibility with sites I was viewing. Though with the latest OTA update I have found the stock browser is meeting all my needs, though I don't browse the web a huge amount from my phone.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BravoMotorola:
The CM7 browser is IMO the BEST browser out of any browser. I love how you can change user agents to MAC or Linux machine. Not all websites let you go to desktop, for instance if you want to run the actual flash speedtest.net without being dragged to the app you can. There are tons of other websites I'm just not thinking of. Plus the incognito mode is awesome;)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosit1:
So I just tried XScope and I believe I am liking it instead of Dolphin so far.

Dolphin HD or Opera Mobile. Opera Mobile is the slickest browser by far, it's so smooth!
[HTC Inspire 4G] RickEphraims:
Hi,

I've been trawling the site looking for answers but to no avail.

No one seems to have a problem the same as mine.

I have an Inspire 4G AT&T

It has been rooted and I have run Coredroid and the latest Leedroid on it.

Everything is running fine except for the volume up button not working.... common problem.

Just in the last couple of days when I do a recovery boot,

There is no clockwork recovery.

There is no Hboot.

I get a constant red blinking light and three vibrates.

If I try to Hboot holding on and up key , I get 5 vibrates and a green flashing light.

Phone will not boot till after about an hour when it happily reboots to Leedroid like nothing has ever happened. Everything runs great apart from this.

Has anyone ever seen a problem like this?:confused:

Cannot load any more roms into it till the clockwork mod is sorted
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
Is you button broken, or is it stuck in one of the up or down positions? If broke, you can always boot into recovery via adb:

adb reboot recovery

Or boot to HBOOT:

adb reboot oem-42

It the button is stuck, then you'll have to disconnect it so it doesn't interfere with the booting process (this breaks seals and voids warranties).
[HTC Inspire 4G] rayford85:
Turn your phone off then hold volume down button then power and see if it works.

sent from my unity loaded inspire 4G
[HTC Inspire 4G] RickEphraims:
Button down and power gives me a red blinking light and 3 vibrates.

nothing on screen. It could be the button being erratic as I often get volume up on screen when I do get it loading. If the button was getting an up press during boot, how will this affect the startup process ?
[HTC Inspire 4G] RickEphraims:
I have done some fiddling as suggested and have found the volume up button to be sticking.

Have removed ribbon cable. now all I have to do is make clockwork work without sound buttons.

Changed recovery bootloader to

All is good now. No sound buttons needed...
[TouchPad General] leftcase:
I received a HP Touchpad yesterday evening and it seems to have developed a fault with the volume rocker switch (already!)

Applying pressure to the "increase volume end (IV)" produces an audible click and the switch yields to the pressure moving towards the case slightly. When applying pressure to the "decrease volume end (DV)" the switch does not yield and there is no audible click.

At rest the switch does not appear to be 'stuck in' at the DV end.

Because of this, when pressing the (working) IV end of the switch, the volume counter increments or decrements randomly (I'm guessing because the DV end is still engaged).

Has anybody else seen anything like this or can anyone offer any suggestions?

Ta!
[TouchPad General] scifan:
Sounds like a defective unit...

Call HP... at least with other gear, they have pretty decent support...
[TouchPad General] leftcase:
I notice that pushing the switch unit physically up seems to sort the problem albeit briefly. As I got this at the knock down price I'd be concerned that HP wouldn't be able to find me a replacement if I report it faulty. I wonder if it might be better just to live with it for a while...
[TouchPad General] brownbanana:
I have the same exact hardware problem, though I never turned the TouchPad on to see the effects

Update: I spoke with HP Customer Service and they agreed it was defective but were unable to offer me a replacement because they didn't have any in stock. I was told to contact Tech Support and given a live chat link (remove the '~' since I can't post links yet):

http~://portal.hpwebos.com/wps/portal/forms/lmichat?rg=NA&lg=en&lang=en&cc=us

Here I was given two options:

If your device is in warranty then you can choose the Repair and Return with Box option at no charge. We’ll send you an empty box with a prepaid label in which to return your tablet to our repair facility.

The process takes 7 to 10 business days from the date you ship your device. After repairs are made, your device is returned to you using 2-day air.

In addition, we have a premium option that is faster. We can send you the empty box overnight. Then the turnaround from the date you ship your device is 5 to 7 days. There is a fee of $29 for this premium repair option.

I asked for a new unit to replace my defective one, eventually got escalated, and was called back the next day.

The rep assured me that any replacement unit would be in 'like new or better condition' and offered "Advance Exchange" - where I receive a shipment containing both a replacement TouchPad and a return box for the defective device. The "Advanced Exchange" service has some associated charges, but those were "negotiable" and the rep waived them. I was asked to provide credit card information for a ~$300 hold until the defective device returns, I objected, and it was kindly reduced to a $1 hold (though surely they reserve the right to charge the full amount if necessary).

Hope everything turns out well.
[TouchPad General] Cash Machine:
Same problem here, and it's only getting worse. I've already endured one warranty return on a TouchPad...I'm getting pretty sick of this. Maybe I'll use that anger to bargain for a free advanced exchange.
[TouchPad General] Cash Machine:
I just achieved this as well. I used my previous bad build quality history as fodder for negotiation, but it seems they are fairly quick to knock off the fees if you just ask.
[Touch2 General] viola.lory:
tHIS Is a tutorial to port android on a device??? I'm interesting because i want to port it on mega...
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Hey guys, I though we can do some list of known issues in latest 1.45.401.2 HTC official base. It would be good idea if later as many people as possible can report the complete bugs list to HTC so that they hurry up with the update and we'll make sure they are aware of all the issues so that they wont be present (hopefully) in next build.

Confirmed issues:

Broken 3D engine,

Bottom dock edge is not smooth (for all 3 skins),

Language issue: (Polish) In HTC e-mail app after selecting unread message the button "Oznacz jako przeczytane" (Mark as read) have text cut in a half,

LMW.apk is missing by default so we can't use "Make more space" in SD card settings,

The phone doesn't always register first power button click to put the phone on standby. It has to be hit twice for the phone to drop to standby,

Zooming in a picture in gallery and pressing the back button doesn't zoom out to the original level,

Phone is embarrassingly slow and choppy as for Dual-Core 1.2GHz device. Especially scrolling through widgets is very laggy,

Phone is getting warm even when scrolling through the desktops,

Not confirmed issues:

Other things to report:

Still missing correct kernel source for 2.3.4 ROM,

Write you suggestions and propositions of better description to the issues. Also report your language issues like missing translations etc.
[HTC Sensation] LeeDroid:
Nice post Mike, the RUU has been on shipped ROMs for the past week but my broadband has been down :eek:

Had the HTC reps in work a few days ago and got one of the guys to esc the 3D issue to their tech/dev team with a detailed description, hoping for a fix soon ;)

Sent from my s-off HTC sensation running LeeDrOiD Sensational
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
This is very good news Lee, hopefully they wont brake anything else lol. Do you have some suggestions for the list?
[HTC Sensation] BSAKSOUK:
Not sure if it's an issue but scrolling in whatsapp conversation is unbelievably choppy and laggy.

Hell even if the GPU wasn't working, the dual core should be able to handle it. But no.

Really weird (My HTC G2 is 10x smoother).
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
I can't really report 3rd party app like whatsapp being slow but I added point with overall poor system performance.
[HTC Sensation] jermx:
No power button issue with mine. Running IC 2.2.2
[HTC Sensation] jerrylzy:
After sending a message,you turn off the screen at once,and then it powered off.

It has happened for many times,but i am not sure if it is an official issue.

ROM is on my signature
[HTC Sensation] Joshhedge:
Whats wrong the the GPU and the 3D engine?
[HTC Sensation] vincepg13:
Play the game 'cordy' and you'll see bro
[HTC Sensation] Joshhedge:
Okay, it doesn't even work... fair point. I'll try some more too see if there are any other issues in other games.
[HTC Sensation] stanny2k:
Wow, I just installed this, thats unbelievable how it cannot handle this game.

My phone crashed, had to battery pull to get it working again. Deleted.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Mate Ninja Fruit on my Desire HD ROM runs perfectly smooth but on Sensation ROM (the same tweaks as for Desire HD ROM) is lags like hells. Yeah... "amazing dual core 1,2 GHz to provide even better multimedia experience"
[HTC Sensation] suprakarma:
Just uninstalled it, played on my nexus s and no problems, tryed on my vibrant and no problem, am talking about the cordy game, it totally makes tbe sensation crash worst than an underclocked kernel
[HTC Sensation] stanny2k:
Where do you think the problem lies?
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
**** drivers for Andreno200 and MSN8660.
[HTC Sensation] stanny2k:
Is there no way for these to be manually updated?

Or would it need a whole new release by HTC?
[HTC Sensation] snowblindd:
When you zoom in a picture in gallery and press the back button it doesn.t zoom out to the original level. In music player side scrolling in albums tab does not work.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Yes, you can flash libs from 1.35 base but only with custom kernel. But it's not a fix, just a temporary solution. It must be fixed by HTC.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Confirmed, thanks!

Can you explain better? Can't reproduce it...
[HTC Sensation] RADLOUNI:
double press power button

I confirm the issue with having to double press the power button to wake up the phone sometimes. Did not face this problem with earlier builds
[HTC Sensation] jerrylzy:
Same here:(Very disappointed with htc's optimization:(
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
+1 to both of these. IIRC from other ROM threads, pretty much everybody experiences at least the gallery zoom out issue.

I also experience this when bringing the phone out of standby.
[HTC Sensation] snowblindd:
Sorry mate, was on the go using romanian keyboard and dictionary :)

Go into music player, slide at the bottom to the albums tab ( where it shows all your mp3.s by albums ) and try to scroll using the right scroll bar ( the one you use for faster jumping from letter A to Z ) - it doesn.t work - at least for me but i think it.s HTC.s fault. I hope i was a bit clearer this time. Can anyone else reproduce it ?
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
lol can't find it, when I'm in albums tab then I can scroll up/down with my finger, the letters appear on the right side like A, B, C just like in the contact book.
[HTC Sensation] snowblindd:
It.s isolated than, i will try it out some more and see if i can find what.s causing this
[HTC Sensation] Sdobron:
I don't have the double press power issue.

However, I believe there may be a sleep issue when auto sync is on. The phone may wake and take excessively long to go back to sleep draining battery.

Here's an example.
[HTC Sensation] skywalker1970:
Am not sure if this issue is there for all, but I have tried a few different roms and have a frequent sense reload when running multiple apps and when using the new market. Really irritating.
[HTC Sensation] oggy059:
experienced that when multitasking...or returning to home screen...many times & sometime need to press the power button 2-3 times to keep the screen awake for each time...& freezes when opening a PNG image via file manager(third party app), pressed home button 3-4 times to make it return to home screen...mine is InsertCoin vr 2.2.3...experiencing 3D engine failure(try Captain America & Cordy)
[HTC Sensation] lennies41:
wifi is useless when your in a call.... everything times out... I think it did this before though...
[HTC Sensation] PDY05:
yes to all the above - though i do like the phone very much
[HTC Sensation] paarry:
These r some of d problms i noticed

1. ES file explorer lags a lot while scrolling. same is with the gallery. gallery doesnt scroll smoothly.

2. Even i ve d zoom out problm while pressing d back button in d gallery.

3. Pinch zoom is browser is very laggy especially while multi tasking.

4. This one is a weird issue. While typing a mail or a message fast on HTC keyboard d phone gets stuck and doesnt respond, even i cant turn off my phone. Power button also doesnt respond. i had this problm thrice. i have to pull out the battery and power it on. Anyone else having this problem?

5. Even i have this power button wake issue. Had to press it twice or thrice to wake the screen.

6. I thought d phone had Adreno 220 GPU and a dual core 1.2GHz processor. It doesnt show its true performance. Now i m regretting why i sold my Desire HD to buy this mobile.
[HTC Sensation] mgear356:
anyone experiencing no sound when playing video in browser? Example youtube? It works fine in the standalone app.

*my bad. My mute button was on.
[HTC Sensation] Shaquiel Harris:
My only major issue is lag out of nowhere and the heat.
[HTC Sensation] f3nd3r:
Hey guys, I have spent the last few days trying to troubleshoot the power button issues. I have tried everything including going back to shipped RUU but the problem still remains. Have a look at my latest posts about this issue in a seperate thread. Here and Here

As you will see in my latest post, it seems like when the the power button is pressed once, it repeats the action about 3 or 4 times. You can test this theory by booting in to CWM and going to Advanced->Key Test. If you press the power button whilst in there it should show "Key: 116" each time the power button is pressed. However, I have found that sometimes it duplicates the key presses with just one press of the power button.
[HTC Sensation] iJohnny:
I hope it will help and that we will see some improvements in the future.
[HTC Sensation] phonegod:
the bottom edge dock been not smooth it was like that when the sensation came out i called and they been esc that problem but in the latest update it wasn`t fix
[HTC Sensation] v-b-n:
Hmm ... looks like HTC fixed the missing "make more Space" app ... just flashed the 1.45 RUU and boing came the new application update available and its installed now ...

Didnt check if someone already reported this .. so apologies if I am just being redundant :)

Wifi issues.

[HTC Sensation] Vipeout:
I just installed cordy... Jesus christ allmighty, after the phone froze I thought the phone was gonna melt in my palm! It got super-hot (50°C+ and still rising) so had to take out the battery in order to prevent a meltdown :eek:

Apart from that, I can confirm the Whatsapp choppiness, Just go into a conversation in whatsapp and scroll up/down the chat history, it's so goddamn slow and choppy u could think it has a gameboy processor inside (and I mean the 80's gameboy).
[HTC Sensation] CdTDroiD:
Yes! 6000 person to click thanks on mike hahaha
[HTC Sensation] djdeviance:
Running IC 2.3.0 and phone is fast as hell, but when I am creating a message and get done and hit home it would reload Sense. Then I would browse the web, hit Home again and it would once again reload Sense. It seems that multitasking on 1.45 is pretty broken at this point.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Nothing like that I noticed on my ROM mate, probably it's not htc base issue. But I will keep an eye on it.
[HTC Sensation] Mercvtio:
Nothing like that on my IC 2.3.0 neither. Weird. Might be specific to your device.
[HTC Sensation] straptin958:
No Data Connection

I cant get me data to work for the life of me. Its saying that i have connection and everything as far as the icon goes. It has the H icon with the "up" and "down" arrow flashing periodically so its on some network. I can receive texts and make calls just fine but i cant go on the internet or use the market. There has to be something im not doing right. Is this a VPN issue?? Also i just realized that i am not getting any sound out of the ear piece when im on a call and the only way i can hear the other person on the other end is to put them on speaker phone. This ROM looks clean and optimized so id rather go with this one but i think imma have to try another.
