[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maverick29:
Hi All,

tried searching the threads on ICS upgrade with bluetooth and Blue&Me but unfortunately couldn't find much so thought of writing.

I have upgraded to the official sony ICS ROM via PC Companion on my Arc (LT15i).... done a repair... and set it up exactly the way i want to. must say that i loved it and am quite happy with the performance of the phone as well... there's the occasional lag but it isn't too bad as yet.

Now to my problem (and a few other queries) :)

1) Bluetooth: Has anybody had any success in pairing the bluetooth with another bluetooth device... preferably a car bluetooth system? I had it working perfectly on the GB (.62) ROM and could use the phone via my Fiat Linea's Blue&Me feature. Now i just can'[t pair it.... when i search for devices it does show Blue&Me but when i try to pair it all i get is that wait cursor kinda thing and then back to search devices screen. it just doesn't pair and give me the option to enter the passcode generated by Blue&Me.

2) Has anyone faced any issues in editing contacts which are synched to Google? Thankfully the HD Pics now work as google sync is not resizing them but in some contacts when i try to edit it the screen simply scrolls back to the top. these are linked contacts (Gmail... Facebook... Facebook inside Xperia.... Whatsapp).

thank you very much in advance for any help that the gurus on this forum can give. I'd especially like to get the bluetooth working as i can live with the contacts editing issue!

thanks, Maverick

I had a few issues connecting to my Ford when I was on 4.0.3.

It seems to work ok for me when I initiate the pairing from my car stereo. Then my phone will display the "bluetooth device wants to connect" and allow me to enter the code.

Hello

the phone "sees" the blue and me and try do pairs...but no popup asking for the pin appears...i wonder if there is any way to force the phone to ask the pin given my blue and me:-(
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rock.n.dave:
I think the problem is with Blue&Me... I've a Parrot and a Chinese GPS integrated in the other Car, and no problem with both of them.

Try to remove the asociation from the Car and then try to pair again. Maybe the Blue&Me assumes the device is the same and the protocol may be different.

In case it doesn't work this way, maybe you need an update from Fiat.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maverick29:
Thanks, i will try this tomorrow and update with my results.

getting something from Fiat is probably never going to happen.... they can't get those teeny weenie yet important spare parts for the car available when you need them most so i doubt they are going to do a B&M upgrade [Country: India]

This is not happening in GB so I guess it is an ICE issue.

By the way, Blue&Me (www.blueandme.net)are in the process of releasing v6.0 but the portal was down for renovation so i haven't been able to download and check whether the problem was with Blue&Me or ICS.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silesh.Nair:
Pair another phone with the car radio. Remember the pin you used.

Then switch on bluetooth on your arc/arc s and it should discover your car radio and display the enter pin screen. Enter the pin and it will connect. I have tried this and it works.

For people from India, this was checked on my Scorpio vlx. There is no way to initiate pairing from the kit.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pvyParts:
Good idea, however

This wont work for everyone. :) my kit remembers old devices up to 5 I think. Still good fix for most devices ;)

I have an lg optimus 3d phone, rooted and unlocked/jailbroken, recently i went to enter my 3d mode by holding down the 3d button, i dont usually use this but either way i went to go into and my custom boot up animation plays, any idea why? may have i deleted this option while getting rid of some programs with my rooting app, i dunno why its happening so if any of you do...let me know! thanks, im also using go launcher, but also tried it on my original home screen, same result

I'm usin android 2.3.7 on my htc hd 2 and my wifi is not working properly most of the time it cant search a network and sometimes when discovers a network it shows very poor signal even when i m standing next to my router . i m using wifi on my laptop so there is no problem in my router .

can someone help please????
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Have you tried any other ROMs to test that it is not a hardware issue? If so and the WiFi works, have you tried a different kernel?
[HD2 General] ASCIIker:
sounds to me like a loose/broken antenna cable/connection. i think the wifi and bluetooth share the same antenna on the hd2, so test bluetooth also. if you get weak signals on bluetooth as well, it could very well indicate a hardware issue like i suspect...
[HD2 General] Kenneth914:
u can try another rom and make sure the problem
[HD2 General] RobinS.Buisman:
You can try a different ROM, preferably with another kernel to test if it's the ROM, or the phone itself. Maybe you can flash the stock ROM, instead of an android ROM, and start the whole unlocking progress over. Maybe you missed something.

Its either one of two things mate,

Also hallon's kernel is also for haida?

I mean to build a haida kernel, you use semc_hallon_defconf and you build is as hallon?

Hey all,

I'm working on a feature-packed, sexy new Android premium alarm app which is now nearing completion. I've got a very quick question for anyone who's ever looked for a replacement app for the built-in clock/alarm.

I'll give a free copy of the app out to the first 20 posters in this thread.

What single feature or frustration with the built-in alarm clock on your phone made you look for an alternative?

Thanks!

"Dismiss" being too easy to hit. When it first goes off, I want to snooze a couple times. I hate having to actually wake up and focus my eyes to make sure I'm hitting snooze instead of dismiss, which would be catastrophic.

[Android Apps and Games] HunnyBearLewis:
Hey, I clearly didn't make it into the first 20 posters but I was one of the beta testers who loved the app so I'd like to share an idea regardless.

I don't know if screen burn-in is possible on all smart phone screens or if it would affect my HTC Sensation - but I never wanted to risk it and try to find out. Your app is very handsome (not ass kissing I swear) and so it'd be more use to me if I could prop my phone up while it's on the charger and leave the screen on at minimum brightness. If there was an extended screen on/desktop clock option that would occasionally rearrange itself so no images or text are sitting in one place too long...well, I think that'd be awesome.
[Android Apps and Games] radiofan:
Hi,

I can't guarantee for your particular phone, but I also have a Sensation (running JBMIUI :) ) and I've left the screen on overnight lots of times with no burn-in. I'll bear the idea in mind for future versions though!

[Android Apps and Games] seraphine:
Full Holo UI, ascending volume are key features for me.

One thing I really loved about the Samsung TouchWiz alarm was the smart alarm functionality, wherein it played forest sounds for a few minutes before the real alarm. That way I'd wake up before the stressful alarm tone and feel way better about the whole thing.

Another differentiation point would be to include a world clock, timer and and nap functionality.

I've seen no replacements for Apples all in one style clock. Samsung actually improved on it when they copied it and I'd pay money to have it back on my Gnex.
