[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krion:
Today the problem became worse.

Even after repeated soft restarts it refused to find the phone network.

Then I change SIM-card to another carrier and it found the network.

I also tried the SIM-card that's giving me problems in another device. Works fine.

So both SIM-cards works. I'm now gonna go with the new carrier during the day to see if the problem come back.

If anyone have any ideas, please help.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doministry:
All I can say that Xperia sometimes looks for the signal a bit longer it should IMO,

but I also know that carriers have many many problems usually and they're also often responsible for signal drops in some places too.

I know that 'cos I was talking to my carrier many times about it and learned something about it...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amanox:
have u tried hard resetting the phone or re-installing the software? ..

if u run the sony update software it will give u the option to re-install your phones software - not sure if that has the same effect as a hard reset ..

probably worth trying
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krion:
Thanks for answering, I have now done a total reinstall and updated the phone to the newest R2... ROM.

The problem remains.

The phone finds the SIM card and asks for the code.

It can connect to internet through my carrier (Tele2).

But I can not get a connection to the phone network and make a normal phone call.

Is something wrong with the phone?

NO, cause with another carrier (Telenor) everything works pefect.

Then obviously something is wrong with my carrier (Tele2) or the SIM-card.

NO, cause when I put my Tele2 SIM-card in another device (Ipaq 6515) it works perfect.

I'm getting lost here, more ideas is appreciated. Tomorrow I will call Tele2 support.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] artesea:
Have you tried disabling 3G/HSDPA?

Chance that you have very poor 3G on your phone, whilst the IPAC is picking up ok 2G.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krion:
Thanks for replying.

I disabled HSDPA/HSUPA in the advanced network menu. But it didn't help.

I also tried to choose GSM only in the phone seetings menue. But I could not even change the setting. Just got an error message about not being able to change the network (or something similar).

Is there any other setting that might be worth trying?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mo.ammi:
Having worked for several phone companies a few years at customer service I know what the procedure is.

-First thing they do is ask you to do a "crosstest", try your SIM in another phone and see if that works.

-You'll tell them that you did that and everything works fine when you use another phone.

-They'll automatically conclude that there's something wrong with your phone (correctly)

-They'll ask you if you could do a hard reset ( You did that too)

-Then maybe they'll try and reset the network (which almost never works)

Basically they'll have no other choice then for you to return it and have them look at the problem / replace your phone.

I don't think we here can help you with your problem

Good luck and keep us posted
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maedox:
Get a new SIM card. I've seen problems like this before, and an updated SIM card solved it.

The best way would be to test your SIM card in a similar phone, the ipaq not being close because it's not even 3G.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krion:
I'm so confused right now.

Got my new sim card today, problem remains.

I call the carrier support and after they've looked the IMEI-number up they say that the phone is barred by an external operator. They won't tell me the reason and by what operator.

So I call the other carriers support and after they've done a IMEI-search they say that the phone is not locked in any way, by them or any other operator. After have been talking to Xperia support they come to the same conclusion. The phone is not locked but agree to that something is wrong, with phone or carriers, and they want me to try with a third carrier.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krion:
Final

I've handed in my phone to the seller and got another one back instead.

The end
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NåttCooltNamn:
Exact same problem

Howdy folks,

I have the exact same problem: My Xperia has worked fine for a month. Suddenly I can't register with Tele2 network (tried another Tele2 card as well that didn't work) for calling but have access to data channel so I can surf. Got told by the Tele2 support that my phone was fu**ed up. Got pissed off. Tried a sim for another provider (Telenor) that worked. Called the Tele2 support again. They noticed that I have an old (2g) sim, so they will send a new (3g) card to test if that fixes this mess. It should arrive late this week or early the next. Can't wait...

I'll keep you posted in this thread (or, if I should instead have made a new thread, a moderator may spank me and I will do better).

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NåttCooltNamn:

and since from the start I have bad GSM signal I have like 1-2 lines onli and it go up to 5line but onli from time to time (and then it drops again to 1-2line or none but If Itray to call is working or I get called but I can berly hear them bicose of the bad signal) on O2 network and in T-mobile is the same no mather wher I'm in town or outside of town; I'm in UK

is the phone damaged?? or...

sry for my bad english
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusson:
My phone does the same thing

My x1 has had no problem with phone function or network. However, from the last week, the signal began to be lost sometimes, and the machine turned off automatically. and finally today, there is no signal at all.

MY SIM card works with other phones, so, I thought it might be software problem, and hard reseted with new rom. However, still no signal. It keeps looking. Does anyone have the same problem, and hopefully, solution?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordJCS:
I´m using my X1i with Tele2 as my service provider,but i don´t have any problems with signalstrength.. Works just fine..
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ResPecT_Cs:
I know I should've introdouced myself first, and that this is a strange first post, but:

HOLY SMOKES!!!

Xperia has FIVE reception bars????!!!!!

I always thought that 3 is the max value, since it only happened once that it went up to three bars, rest of the time it's maximum 2, usually 1.

I am also on Tele2 carrier, in Sweden that is, and since yesterday, I have no reception AT ALL.

Nothing.

Tried turning off 3G(or whatever it's called), nothing happens.

Tested with 3 other cards (one Tele2, one Telenor, one Telia) - all seem to be working okay. Except that the Tele2 one has slightly lower reception than the others.

Tested with 3 other phones as well - iPhone 3GS, Nokia 5800 Xpress Music, HTC Desire. All of them worked perfectly. Full coverage on that super-fast network thingy(the 3G symbol on iPhone).

Internet is just flowing on other phones - but Xperia is just falling behind in the most important section - reception.

Calls get dropped (2/3 of the calls), I must send same message at least 3 times in order to get it sent, Internet is crappy - if there's any at all.

Any kind of guidance is mostly appreciated.

P.S. A bit of those numbers which seem to be important:

Microsoft Windows MobileR 6.1 Professional

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] altae:
Since all of you seem to have problems with one and the same carrier (Tele2) why don't you simply switch to another one? I once had a problem that was very alike the one described here and after several unsuccessful attempts of the carrier to fix it I simply switched to another one and all my problems were gone.
[About XDA developers] StevePritchard:
For a couple of days now, I've been having problems with the forums. When I log in, the "You last visited:" seems to be out of date, and consequently (I'm guessing) the list of bold threads with the "Go to first new post" icon is very long. If I log out and back in, then the last visited date and time seems to update, but it never used to be like this.

Is this a problem on my PC (I've tried deleting cookies), or is it a problem with the forum?

Cheers,

Steve.
[About XDA developers] denco7:
Same happening here, posts I know I read yesterday are still coming up in bold ( unread )
[About XDA developers] StevePritchard:
Hmmm... so maybe it isn't just me then. I've tried logging in from different PCs, and it still seems a bit screwed up. :(

Fingers crossed for a quick solution.

Cheers,

[About XDA developers] DaveShaw:
There was a change made to the backend that caused the problem.

The check to see which posts you have read is done by user ID instead of by cookie ID.

If you mark the entire forum read (Quick Links, Mark Forums Read), then it will work fine from then on.

Thanks

Dave
[About XDA developers] galaxys:

[About XDA developers] StevePritchard:
I think I spoke too soon...

Am I missing something. I'm sure it used to be that when I visited a forum, the threads that had been updated since I last visited were highlighted (well, emboldened).

Now it appears that it's every thread that I haven't read, or explicitly set as read, gets highlighted.

I prefer the previous behaviour - is that an option I can set?

Cheers,

Steve.
[About XDA developers] DaveShaw:
I think with the old behaviour the unread posts "timed" after a while and marked all posts read for you (probably when the cookie expired). With this new one I don't think it forget's what you have and haven't read or has been updated (ever).

I used to use "Mark forums read" with the old system when I had read all I wanted to just to get a clean start, I do the same with the new one - no real difference for me :)

Thanks

Dave
[About XDA developers] deedee:
Same as Steve with me, it used to flag all old posts as read when i logged out and logged back in later in the day, now its only flagging as read those that i specifically read. Looks like I am going to have to get used to the "Mark all Read" function. Oh well, that's progress. :)
[About XDA developers] StevePritchard:
Must admit - I think it's a backward step. Can I have the old behaviour back please?

[About XDA developers] scotchua:
I actually disagree, I very much enjoy the fact that a lot of threads aren't getting marked as read when i have't read them.

Oh and i just thought it was just me it's starting to do my bonce in bigtime, thank god i found this thread as otherwise Dave you would have just had a PM :D
[About XDA developers] StevePritchard:
It seems that there's a few things we aren't going to agree on.

I can understand that if you are going to go through culling threads to put into one large Q&A thread, then being able to break that up into multiple sessions is going to be a benefit. However, for me, if there's a thread that I haven't visited during a visit, then it's for a reason (probably to ensure I don't offer any contribution to it?) and will most likely be due to the title indicating it's not of specific interest to me, although that won't be of concern soon, as I'll only have to look at one thread. ;)

Cheers,

Steve.

[General Questions and Answers] Keithj:
I think I've put this in the right place, but Mods please feel free to move it if I haven't.

My O2 XDA Ignito (HTC Touch Diamond in a different housing) has worked perfectly with iFonz for many months. I'm on version 1.1.2. I am very, very happy with iFonz and would not want to go back to TouchFlo which is nowhere near as good.

Yesterday, iFonz suddenly started operating extremely slowly. I thought I had crashed, but in fact it responds to commands but takes anything from 15 seconds to over a minute to do so. Until then, it has been virtually instantaneous.

The first command I issue after it's been left for some time will work as normal, but if I open (say) the PI Calendar, then close that - the nothing else will work for about 15 seconds after the keypress.

The only change I know about is that I had a problem with ActiveSynch to a new desktop installation (the familiar 0x86000107 problem) which I fixed in the usual way by deleting and reinstalling the pairing. Activesync worked fine after that.

I have S2U2 running - but that's always been there.

I noticed from the time I first installed iFonz that it would not update its header bar for several seconds after starting, but everything else worked OK.

Can anyone suggest a cause or a fix? I'm reluctant to uninstall and reinstall because I've set up 4 pages of icons and don't want to lose all that work.
[General Questions and Answers] nir36:
I never used iFonz but i'm pretty sure the settings are kept somewhere so you can export them and not have to set everything up from the beginning. I always suggest uninstalling to check what causes the problem.
[General Questions and Answers] Keithj:
Thank you. Indeed, that is what I would have expected. I've searched the machine carefully, and found the iFonz software but no settings file.

I've PMed the author, and meanwhile I've taken iFonz off the startup list and running Touchflo instead. I don't like it anything like as much as iFonz, but it works.
[General Questions and Answers] Keithj:
Well, there's been no reply from the author, and everything I've tried (including uninstall and reinstall) has made no difference. Sad, because I liked iFonz.
[General Questions and Answers] ToddeSwe:
Please tell me how to fix the above a bit more specifik...

I don't understand what you mean by: "pairing"
[General Questions and Answers] Keithj:
"Pairing" is setting up the ActiveSync connection between the PDA/phone and the PC so that they will synchronise when you connect them.

If you get the error, you have a problem. I fixed mine for a few months, but then the problem came back worse, and the fixes that used to work stopped. Basically, I don't think ActiveSync is capable of doing the job reliably. It deleted all my contacts (losing me a load of names and addresses that I needed and couldn't recover). I threw it out some time ago.

I now use an iPhone which doesn't have any of those problems.

No sound problem

Hi

This normally happens when the headphone is plugged out. There is a small microswitch inside the headphone socket to detect the unplugging of the headphone.

Try inserting a pin and gently moving inside the headphone socket. This releases the switch and audio is back to external speakers. It worked for me.

Hope this helps :)

I have upgrade my diamond to the new official ROM from HTC :

2.03.406.2 FRE

1.09.25.23

And from this upgrade I meet a lot of difficulties to synchronize my phone to my PCs...

At home, I have a PC with Active Sync 4.5 and I want to synchronize contact and agenda with Outlook. I have issues to connect phone and PC and don't know why..

At work, I have a PC with Active Sync 4.5

mNotes to synchronize my agenda only with Lotus software.

Now I have uninstalled all my work stuff to have only one sync PC and it is still not working.

Is there a problem with this new ROM ?

I had no problem with the previous official ROM from HTC....

[G1 Android Development] joshtheitguy:
So I was browsing around the terminal emulator and found the /cache folder inside were 8 downloadfile_1.jpeg files.

I had no idea where they came from or how the hell they got there but lets say I would not have downloaded these pictures on my own and didn't want them on my phone at all.

promptly did a rm *

One, how the hell would those pictures get there?

Two, I heard someone once said /cache is just there for OTA updates?

Three, if it is for OTA updates couldn't it be removed?

*edit: now that I think about it, this was a warranty replacement. Must have been a refurb and those pics were there from the former user.*
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
i looked into my phone and found the same thing .. if you do this:

cp /cache/downloadfile_1.jpeg /sdcard

you can then use a browser to see the image .. i also had downloadfile.apk in there as well .. seems as tho the /cache on the phone is coming from temp files from the browser??
[G1 Android Development] joshtheitguy:
OK so I'm not the only one.

This is weird.
[G1 Android Development] Binary100100:
Yeah I had a bunch of crap on mine too. I moved one to my sdcard root just to see what it was and it was a picture that I had downloaded from the internet and forwarded it to a friend via mms.

I had the following:

downloadfile-1.apk

downloadfile-1.jpeg

downloadfile-2.apk

downloadfile-2.jpeg

downloadfile-3.apk

downloadfile-4.apk

downloadfile-5.apk

downloadfile-6.apk

downloadfile.apk

downloadfile.jpeg

lost+found

recovery

I also did rm* and checked to see if it cleared up any phone memory but alas... it didn't seem to.

Also worth noting is that I am CONSTANTLY clearing my cache in my browser and had already moved my caches to my sdcard. It's strange that these had somehow made their way to my root where I couldn't delete them. The only thing that I can think of is that they are stored from my mms. But I checked my messaging and they are still they are still there. Clueless.
