[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Olli80:
at first: I did not ask for a release date of a ROM!

this thread is meant to discuss about what we have and can expect in the future for our X10. Its not made to complain about ppl or the devs. It´s meant to get the facts cleary for everyone.

STOP RAGING IN THIS THREAD!

So about the android 4.0 storry: Sony will spend an Android 4.0 update for the X10 ARC! The normal X10 isnt that far away ........... but still such a big prob to port it?

There will be alot devices which get a stock update to ICS and they will be stable.

The point i dont understand is why devs are working that hard on a mod which is already outdated..........

Ofc they try to re-create android with there own source codes but ey.......... you seriously thinking about writing your own operating system for a mobile phone?

Android have been founded by high skilled (and highly paid) informatics guys hired by google! I guess 50% of our devs are <18 years and not even skilled in programming. Don´t get this wrong now..... i dont want to blame you guys! But why do you think we can write a new firmware..............?

Maybe you running behind the wrong goals ............

For me the crew should focus on Android 4.0. Thats the only ROM ppl want to have now. And ey yeah it would be awesome to have ICS on my 2 years old X10!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aR_ChRiS:
First, it's quite hard to port 4.0 onto our X10 since we have a really old kernel (.29), not to mention whether our hardware can handle that or not...

Second, the FXP team's goal is to get the X10 up to CM specs so that we can have as much official CM support as we want until the newest android versions become too much for the X10 to handle.

And don't even try to say that most of the devs here are below eighteen, because most of them aren't and have a proper job. If you are looking for child labour to develop your device you're at the wrong forum.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frosty666:
What we have: an almost stable CM7 ROM.

What we can expect for the future: a fully stable CM7 ROM.

What we -might- get: an ICS ROM that probably won't ever be stable.

By the way, what is an X10 ARC? Never heard of that device before.

Assuming that you mean the Arc, there are huge differences between the X10 and the Arc. It will probably not even be practical to try and port ICS from it.

The devs are working on "outdated" CM7 because it is most likely to become fully stable after some work. If they start working on ICS now, they won't have a fully stable CM7 ROM to help them. CM9, based on ICS, isn't even released yet, so do elaborate on what you meant when you said the mod they were working on was outdated. There isn't even any phones with ICS yet...

By describing the devs as under 18s with little coding experience you are actually being extremely naive and disrespectful. Go have a chat with aZuZu or DooMLord about kernels, you'll see what I mean. I don't know if that's what you were intending, but you sound quite rude.

Building a working, let alone stable, ICS ROM, or any ROM for that matter, is not easy. It takes time to build, test, find bugs and iron them out.

Also, for your information, a handful of devs are already working on an ICS port alongside their current projects. Have a quick look in the dev section.

I hope you see my point now.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkylight:
Well if 4.0 doesnt work, y se doesnt officially update x10 to 2.3.4???

It is already ported to arc and x10 could handle this rom and be stable.

Good idea
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aR_ChRiS:
You have to be quite childish to think that's a good idea...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aR_ChRiS:
Because SE said that 2.3.3 would be the final update, they are not obliged to give us any updates after that.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hzu:
Just accept the fact that X10 is old and obsolete to SE (and most probably to the most population of the world who don't even know what a custom ROM is) will ya?

When they said it's the final update for SE, it's is.

But don't you worry though, I'm sure we will get a fully working ICS soon, considering that we will have support for CM9 officially.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ipigi:
Hello All,

I've been using an iPhone 3G (ewww) for the past 2 years and I am finally looking to upgrade to a better phone. Right now, I have 3 options.

1) Stay with my current carrier (Fido) and get the LG Optimus 2x. I like that it has the Tegra 2 processor in it like my tablet (Acer A500), but I have read some bad reviews on engadget about it.

2) Change to another carrier (Rogers). Cancellation fees are not an issue as they will buy back my current contract. I would be able to get my hands on a Motorola Droid Razr (XT910) but would end up paying slightly more per month for about the same plan.

3) If the XT910 is compatible with Fido, I could simply buy it off NCIX or other vendor full price.

I'm really interested in the XT910. The large screen and thin form factor are really a plus.

What do you guys think?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kholk:
XT910 is compatible with all the world GSM and WCDMA frequencies, so, if Fido is a GSM/UMTS/HSPA/LTE -- 2G/3G/4G, it will work flawlessly.

Everything was working just fine untilled when I unlocked my dell streak with the at&t unlock code.I can't install any app except from the market,I can't switch my data to work only on 3g.please someone help me out of this maze
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davieso1:
And I have tried *#*#307#*#* its brings a massage saying "needs correct PASSPORT in SD card,check it now!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
The solution to both of your problems is...

Wait for it...

Change your ROM.

You have an AT&T Streak that you had unlocked. Change your ROM to an unlocked ROM (e.g. 360) and eliminate all software related issues caused by AT&T's attempts to lock Android down. Not to mention likely fixing your HSPA issues.

Once you do that, go into Settings>Applications and make sure "Unknown Sources" is checked to allow downloads from outside the Market.

Thanks.

If it is S-OFFed, then you can S-OFF it again -.-

Like a car, once it's started, you can't start it again, because it's already started :D

But if you Unrooted or whatever (and currently you are S-ON), then you can.

[General Questions and Answers] NetworkGeek:
In a time crunch, please help! So, my company is in need of portable PDF readers and they are doing away with text books. I am in need of a dumbed down version of a tablet. i.e. A tablet WITHOUT WiFi, Apps, browser or anything "fun" the students could "play" instead of reading the preloaded PDF files my company will install on the devices.

So I am thinking a nook Color with a custom ROM. Maybe a nook Simple Touch with a custom ROM? Anyway, the company is even considering Kindle fire. :rolleyes: (no idea why, its not very customizable) Either way, its my decision and I need YOUR help :D

Needs: 1) PDF reader without anything else on the device. 2) The ability to preload PDFs, I do not want to have to glue the Micro SD cards into the machines. 3) Price is not too much off an issue, although the more money I can save the better.
[General Questions and Answers] NetworkGeek:
****bump****
[General Questions and Answers] R3dF1v3:
If all you want is a device that will allow users to read PDF files, without frills such as memor cards, internet, games/apps,etc, why not go for a dedicated ebook reader such as a Kindle - compared to tablets, they seem to be as cheap as chips, and they read PDFs.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
What is the best way to make a full backup/image of my Photon including the operating system? I currently use Titanium to back up all files and apps but I need to back up the OS too.

Does the ROM Manager from the Android Market work on the Photon?
[Motorola Photon 4G] MultiDev:
NANDroid is best way.

IF you aren't unlocked, use the CWM bootstrap recovery.

If you are unlocked, use the Clockword Mod Recovery to NANDroid.

Restore NANDroid via the method you used to create it.

ROM Manager currently does not support the Photon. There are tweaks to make it work with the photon, I believe, but those require an unlocked device and some complicated tweaks.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
Are you referring to these instructions (link)?

If so, is everyone using this method to backup locked Photons?
[Motorola Photon 4G] deedscreen:
Yes, sir.

Nandroid works great and if you just want to back up your apps after you get your setup use titanium backup assuming you have root at that point.
[Motorola Photon 4G] tk161900:
Is there anyone here that is willing to upload their nandroid backup of the stock Photon rom? I know it's not a good idea the thing is I only need it to get a few files from to fix my current corrupted stock rom.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lokifish Marz:
What files do you need?
[Motorola Photon 4G] tk161900:
I need the folder that is in the CWM folder that contains all the other folders for the complete nandroid.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lokifish Marz:
For a full backup it's takes about 20mins to do. It will be about a 500MB ultra compressed zip and about 2GB extracted so I'll need some time. Also, if you intend to restore from it don't be surprised if you MAC addresses get hosed.

What release do you need? 198_6 or 198_7?
[Motorola Photon 4G] tk161900:
I need 198_6. I understand it would take some time and be a pain in the but so I understand if you don't wanna do it, but it would really help me out. Would I need to worry about losing my Mac address if I restore from my nandroid once I get what I need from yours?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lokifish Marz:
As long as you're only pulling files you should be fine. I'm uploading right now it will take about 20min. Click on the banner in my sig, this will take you to my site. You can find it in the downloads section. You are going to have to use 7Zip to extract it.

[HTC Sensation] bibihtc:
I have a long experience with custom ROMs on my HD2 were the battery drain during standby is a real checkpoint, usually being around 4 mA.

Having wifi on (never sleep), sync on (2 email accounts - refresh every 5 minutes on peek hours, fb acc and news reader with 27 topics to refresh every 1 hour), 20-40 minutes of call and about 20 minutes internet browsing with 4 mA batt drain in standby, the total autonomy of the battery was around 12-14 hours.

Now, I've got my first Android native phone: Sensation XE. Knowing that battery best performances arise after several charge-discharge cycles, I believe these days the battery will perform at maximum capacity.

What is intriguing me, is the standby battery drain: 120-350 mA. The good record was seen this morning (not charging over night): 32 mA.

Despite this "huge" drain the phone is up, 32% available after 24 heavy hours: 5 hours internet browsing, wifi on (never sleep), sync on (2 email accounts - refresh every 5 minutes on peek hours, fb acc and news reader with 27 topics to refresh every 1 hour) and 10 minutes of call.

The question is: Is there so important to have a low standby batt drain?
[HTC Sensation] geoffcorey:
The HTC battery driver is horridly coded. It "sticks", it jumps, and I wouldn't even be surprised if the ma drain was severely off.

Until HTC (or a kernel dev) fixes the driver, take all ma readings with a grain of salt.

As for my evidence; battery monitor widget reported consistent 150-200ma drops, yet I was averaging over 18hrs of uptime, and these readings were idle readings. Just the math alone doesn't work out to fit the 1520mAh battery.
[HTC Sensation] bibihtc:
Indeed. That's why I still use current widget only to view battery % and don't care anymore about mA drain as I don't want yet to change stock ROM and root my device (and change battery icon to a percet one).
