Reconnecting after lost connection bug fixed (1.12 just didn't reconnect to the network at times). I think these are enough reasons to take 1.13. Don't know about the USIM issue.

why does xperia sp score higher benchmark than nexus 4 even though xperia sp is an underdog in terms of specs?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rohit02:
Dude what matters you, the benchmarks or the performance?

Xperia Sp Outshines nexus 4

My dear friend, who said you that xperia sp is an underdog in terms of specs.

For your knowledge, xperia sp shares the same qualcomm chipset as nexus has(the snapdragon s4 pro), but with a different model designed for dual core cpu's(msm 8960T) than the nexus quad core designed(apq 8064), it has the very same adreno 320 gpu, but has half the ram nexus has.

The reason for xperia sp scoring way over nexus is because of its low resolution 720p screen rather than 1080p, so it has to process less pixels, hence less workload, and more benchmarks and performance,

But i agree in real life, nexus 4 has a better performance, due to its 2 gigs of ram which is awesome for multitasking, but that doesn't mean xperia sp is an "underdog"

Moreover, with usb otg, expandable storage, and the transparent illumination bar, xperia sp score much better overall in my perspective,

Hi all, I was deleting a load of surplus system apps (inspired by http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=44673431) but I deleted what I think was called the system widget, this was the 2x1 widget which, when clicked, expanded and let you switch off/on most things like wifi, screen backlight etc. I thought it was the onoff.apk so I put that back in system/apps but it didn't appear in the widgets selection screen. Does anyone know which apk I do need to restore?

On a similar note, in widgets selection, I have 'Play - My library' and 'Play Recommendations' but both are greyed out - does anyone know how to actually remove them from the widget selection screen?

any one here switched to wizard from a Symbian device like Sony Ericsson P800, P900 ,P910 ? I would like to know how you feel with the new Wizard

any CONs and PROs to the Symbian device? Thanks for sharing
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] vijay555:
rookery, I don't have the wizard, (I've got Magician and Universal), but I used a p900 for a year:

I think the p900 is ergonomically a better designed phone, particularly with the keypad. The 5 way rocker switch is a work of genius and I spent weeks getting anywhere near that level of usability out of my phone's hardware buttons.

Sony stuff works better out of the box as a phone, whereas Microsoft's stuff is better as a PDA then a phone, although the Sony is worse as a PDA then a phone. However, the p900 is a good enough PDA, particularly for contacts and PIM stuff.

Lack of Outlook categories on the p900 PIM was horrifying.

I miss popontop, although I use bigkeys as a fairly good stand in (not an issue on the wizard)

Tracker was and is great; Wisbar desktop advance is only just beginning to get close to the same functionality.

My two pence's worth :wink:

V
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rookery:
HI vijay555, thanks for sharing,

Yes Tracker is Great, the only think missed is Chinese support.

I have my P800 for nearly three years, I am happy with my P800 in the first two yesr, but the way it sync with outlook, less memory, without Wi-Fi makes me consider to switch to PPC.

I have QuickOffice Installed, I am happy with it too, wonder if the Word and Excel Mobile work better or not,

with 64MB Ram, did your Universal respond smoothly with multi application running in the background, say with E-mail, Calendar, Contacts and Notes running, is it slowly when switching between them ?

and did you move you SMS to your Magician successfully ?

Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] vijay555:
Let's see:

SMS from Magician. I don't think I moved them across, from memory I don't think SMSi are stored on the SIM with the newer phones (because of the 10 sms limit). But if you're moving to pocketpc, search for an app by a guy called ToeNailed to do this.

Yes, I liked the p900, and think it's form factor is still great. It's nicely landscape: I gave mine to my missus to use, and I'm quite surprised how much brighter the Magician's screen is (particularly with my program VJLumos, which no one seems to use!) but i never noticed it at the time.

I used to use smartplayer and that was fine, although I have to say that SD card compatibility is a very big issue for me. Mini SDs are still not cheap or big enough I think, so full SD was important to keep a whole film on. Most of the time I'm only using 200mb of files, + 700mb film on occassions. The magician's screen was fine for this, and the universal's bigger screen is even better.

I'm not sure how the wizard is for film playback because it has a slower processor, although reports say that it's fine.

Wireless syncing: that's great, although be aware that WM5 doesn't allow wireless syncing. If I need to, I bluetooth sync (the bluetooth adaptor is around £6 on ebay) which is convenient. A wifi+keyboard (universal) is very nice and usable for browsing the net from bed (I can also do that with bluetooth syncing, but through the wifi router I don't need the main pc to be on, as for bluetooth)

From memory, quick office is better than the pocketpc equivalents. WM5's pocket office stuff is quite good, but frankly if you're doing word processing, get TextMaker for a true mini-Word, full compatibility. It's hefty but works well (not sure if it's WM5)

I've not encountered any speed issues on my Universal, although I never installed anything from the extended ROM and always use SmallMenuPlus. I've not installed too much, for me it's just a test system and not my main phone. However, you may know the MS OSs don't close tasks, just minimize them, so it's a good habit to close apps properly using a task manager like small menu every time you're finished. As I say, I've never had speed issues, it's fast enough. I'd kill for a graphic accelerator though! (Quake III!)

I've been quite cruel to the Universal, it is big, but not enormous, and for what it packs in it's great. But the wizard is a great compromise on size. I'd have bought one, but I really wanted full SD. The Magician is still my baby, and that stay in my pocket.

The universal's VGA screen is great at full VGA, but will make me blind:

so I'd like to specify a VGA screen on any future system, but then the Magician/Wizard form factor makes a VGA screen unnecessary I think. It's already too small on the Universal's bigger screen.

Tracker is still great. I'm working on something similar to use on my PPC one day.

Programming for the operating system is very important to me, and I've been getting into this over the last month or two on the PPC, and I never considered it on the p900, so that's a big plus for me.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] vijay555:
q-biq: WM5 is good, Wm2003SE was good enough for what it was, and UIQ has it's good bits.

If you're thrown at the operating system for whatever reason, you'll make the most of it. There's a hell of a lot of things that aren't intuitive on the PPC, but likewise on UIQ.

PPCs have the benefit of hefty CPUs, basically because they have a fairly bloated OS, but the benefits of the OS from a programming point of view is that you can go coding from windows to PPC quite easily.

But there are benefits to UIQ, and certainly to the design of the p900. But I would still certainly go for the MS phones over the p900 if I had to choose again. The Hermione looks cute though, but there is definately a difference between phone+pda and pda+phone.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] j_chacko82:
Rookery,

I have been following up with Hermione for about a month now. The slow interface that you mwntioned about is cause it is a alpha test device. They haven't even gotten into the beta development stage. Wait a min, I think they are into that now, if SE wnats to keep their promise of launching their device by Q1 of 2006.

I started of with the Imate JAM, my first ever PDA device. But looking at Hermione, I am thinking of moving to that, probably will. Whats enticing me into buying it is cause of the ability to have one handed usage. I miss that very much on the JAM.

I know there are lots of softwares out there that makes you do one handed usage, especially Vijay's Dialer and SMS. But still I would like to be able pres the button's and actually feel them, while having an option of touch screen

Also I think the symbian devices have a lot more out of the box. Like now with UIQ3 you get an interface like what you would get if you were to install SPB Pocket Plus. Also there's a voice dialer. You wouls say,why not be happy with the 3rd party apps that you can install, well that eats into your internal memory or storage card space. But when you have apps built in out of the box, you have the internal memory for other use.

MS does a lot of things, but they take ages to get things right. And moreover they use us as test dummies!! Hwne you think about it, you pay a lot of money to get a fully functional device, not one where you have to spend more on apps to get it functioning to how you would like it.

But like I said one handed usage is one thats going to make me buy the Hermione and the other is the accessories available. Thats one thing I found lagging in the Imate. Accessories are made by other companies, while SE has their own.

Ah well, to everyone, their love..

Regards,

James

Really hope that the UIQ3 will release on Q1 2006 with smoothly interface, while there will be new Wizard with 3G called "saw it before in the forum but forgot"? :D

but the P990 using the same CPU as P800,900 and 910, I don't think that CPU is powerful enought for the new interface.

Did you remember you will have a faster P900 or 910 when you use a empty theme(UI falllback to P800's)? I think the same case will on P990 or even worst, by only using theme will slow down the phone, i don't know why not Sony consider to upgrade the CPU. :?

I have waited almost a year for a device which better to my P800 in every way, well, i still cannot find it. :roll:

Well, I personally had a Nokia 6600 - it's a classic already, though its's not one of the deviced mentioned above :wink:

A couple of days ago I switched to XDA Mini S from O2 Germany (a.k.a. HTC Wizard). For me that was as huge as moving from 6100 to 6600 step. I'm going pro with the pen, though it's much easier to use the "phone" functions with buttons. Yeah, not just once I've seen P800/P900 and I can say Windows is muuuuch better (apart from the fact that I've been using Windows for 10 years now :D ).

Yeah, Symbian is nice, good support but Microsoft just rock for the UI. And all the extras that these small "guys" provide - I haven't seen a Symbian device that powerful yet. And Nokia's 9 series - just too big to fit in my pocket :)

Hi,

I recently switched from my 2 year old P900 to the HTC Wizard (mda Vario).

It is surely a big difference to handle with the new Phone. But within 2-3 days i learned how to find out the new functions. Before i bought the phone i expected to miss the Keypad from the P900. But i don´t. The Qwertz Keypad is a great thing. :) What i definetely miss is the clear overview of all programms in a row from the p900. But i don´t care, windows mobile is like Windows Xp and thats why it is easy to find out the functions out of the Menu. :wink: I´m also active in the biggest German Sony-Ericsson Board: www.se-community.com since 2003. The Board with first SE Previews next to mobile-review. But the Wizards beats the P900!
