[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guap:
uhm, I suspect that's useless. the "diff" could be contain some differences that breaks compatibility with multiple installed programs and so on, even other programs like spb backup in "rom upgrade mode" fail most of the time

And if I have to reinstall all, it's not a problem reflash manually all my rom.

It seems to me more oriented to business company world for wide deployment of upgrades and configuration on mobile devices of single users
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fards:
However useless or not it looks like it's being tested by SE..

So we may be seeing at some point (unless they threw it into the rom by accident) or I got it wrong..
[XPERIA X1 General] AaronUK:
Well, as I lost my iPod I was going to use the X1 to play my MP3s. I know it won't be as good but it is better than nothing, for now.

Is the built in player any good? What about the audio quality? Can you subscribe to podcasts? Is it worth checking out CorePlayer?

Thanks.
[XPERIA X1 General] beingthere:
Hey there,

I'm a heavy listener who planned on using the X1 for music before I bought it. I came from a 5.5G ipod video and I'm familiar with the iphone/ipod touch, and a lot of mp3 players on the market.

My conclusion? Don't, convergence is still not an easy thing to do right now, at least the software side can be very difficult and frustrating.

For example, I think Volume control is messy on the X1. There's a system volume, and then each music player app usually has its own volume control. You'll want to juggle both to get the volume adjustment you want. I don't know if all WM phones are like this, but it should be less clumsy.

The Panel will give you tiny snags from time to time, like cover art may or may not show up, and it's not as finger-friendly as the button sizes suggest. I don't use it for music; it's almost my least favorite music app for the X1.

Heavy music users coming to the WM system will want to pay $20 for one of the music apps. Don't use CorePlayer. Conduit's Pocket Player is the best, lots of tweaking possible and closest to the iphone's music player in terms of interface. However it's still not as smooth as the iphone, and there are some aspects of the operation I took two weeks but simply couldn't figure out (e.g. podcasts always play on the fly instead of download and sitting on the phone for later).

I'm not sure if you've already got the X1, whether you want to permanently replace the ipod with the phone, or if this is just a stopgap solution, so my reply is a bit all over the place. If you want free apps, S2P is probably the smoothest right now and IMO puts the X1's hardware to good use.

Sound quality... one of the phone review sites tested the X1 and the signal/noise ratio went through the roof, better than a large number of phones and mp3 players. In the world of audio numbers don't necessarily mean much, but the sound is definitely good. I just think the software side is a big letdown.
[XPERIA X1 General] etismyname:
i am using pocket player and it works really well. It has the today screen plug in, making it very easy to use.

as for the quality, i would say the performance is so-so...but it also depends a lot of the headphones and the format of the music is :)
[XPERIA X1 General] toxik:
I like Windows Media Player more than the media panel. I sold my ipod touch when i got my xperia and it hasn't been a huge downgrade honestly, considering it's one less thing i have to carry in my pockets. The 16gb microsd card pretty much makes it into a full blown mp3 player. It's not bad, but don't expect audiophiles to be pleased with it. I'm a pretty average user, and I listen to music at least 3-5 hours each day on my x1.
[XPERIA X1 General] Rudegar:
I use the media panel

don't want to carry 2 devices so

I leave my ipod touch at home as remote

works great for me think speakers/headset mean a lot more

for audio quality then the device
[XPERIA X1 General] comeradealexi:
i use media panel beaucse its finger friendly and can easily play music - does drain the batty kinda fast tho
[XPERIA X1 General] jackleung:
I am a heavy listener as well, except the huge storage on ipod (well, some models), I think any WM can do better jobs especially w/ A2DP/AVRCP. Since many of my music are in video format (MTV, KTV, youtube ...etc), core player is my first choice.

Sound quality wise, Nokia is the best but the OS sucks.
[XPERIA X1 General] Domipost:
I've always used my phone for music, and I must say I think the SE A200 walkman player is the best one i've seen (better than iPhone imo), but the Media panel for X1 is okay too.
[XPERIA X1 General] Rudegar:
"I think any WM can do better jobs especially w/ A2DP/AVRCP."

yeah i use my nokia a2dp headset with mine to avoid wires
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Heinz1961:
Hello,

My T-Mobile MDA suddenly had no power and so i thought the AKKU was broken.

I put in a new one, but after it boots ,it stays a few seconds in the Windows 2003 Start screen, where you can calibrate the screen and after a few seconds

it starts to boot again and this happens again and again.

I thought maybe its a problem, which is already known in this forum and so i would like to ask if someone had this problem please let me know if theres a solution and tell me how to solve this.

thank you for your help
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] x_JoM_x:
using a fully charged battery (from a friend?) try reflashing again.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Heinz1961:
Thank you for this idea.

I tried this, but it didn't change anything..

I think i have to buy a new PDA.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] GuestX00832:
Hi,

I have the same problem with WM6.0/6.1 if my accu is empty.

The solution I´ve found is to use the original powersource adapter while booting.

By the way:

Everytime I am using another adapter with usb-adaptercable, e.g. 1000 mA too, the accu loses rapidly his power. Ist there any htc-specification for the original-hima-poweradapter like apple uses it for the ipod nano?
[XPERIA X1 General] outsider787:
I am looking at getting a used X1a, but I have no idea how to distinguish between the X1i (uk version with no 3G support in canada) and the X1a(us version which should get 3G in canada)

The reason I am concerned is because I see for/sale adds for X1, for X1a and X1i.... I'd like to be able to check before I buy, and be sure of what I'm getting.
[XPERIA X1 General] gtrab:
remove the battery

it says "X1" OR "X1a"

there's no other way

PS: this has been discussed before
[XPERIA X1 General] George Knighton:
If you're like most of us, you're buying online...so an element of trust is involved, and you might not like that.

The X1a that you want will be clearly marked as such under the battery. The X1i only says X1 under the battery.
[XPERIA X1 General] kdspiv:
start - settings - device info. - identity.

This is where Sony Xperia support sent me to verify for them I had an X1i instead of the X1a the first time I called in. (I'm in the US)

Mine says X1i there.
[XPERIA X1 General] gtrab:
start - settings - device info. - identity -> SEX1

I modded "modelname.txt" on my \windows\ directory

You have to look behind the battery
[XPERIA X1 General] SmartPhonevsHotGirl:
Hi.

My X1 seem to like trying to connect to internet whenever I dont have WLAN (like before it has connected when I turn it on.

Is there any way to turn this off?

Im was playing with the connection modes and deactivated "Auto" and set it to gprs/gsm or w/e it's called mode but this does not seem to solve the problem of the phone going into "Trying to connect" mode.

You got any tips on how to solve this?
[XPERIA X1 General] beingthere:
I searched the web, and found this...

Go to Start Menu ---> settings

Then go to the "connections" tab

open "connections"

go to the "advanced" tab

click on "select networks"

There are two pull-down menus, choose "my work network" for both

Then click OK.

I've managed to stop the X1 from connecting automatically with this, hope this helps.
[XPERIA X1 General] BuddyLee:
Anyone in the us with tomtom 7.5 installed got their traffic to work? I recently upgraded my rom and installed the new 7.5 software but havent been able to get traffic. I called and they said traffic for them was down but it should be up yet nothing for me. I get this tomtom service is not available in your region yet.
[Touch HD General] Behold:
At midnight my phone lights up and wakes me up and id like to know why. Any ideas????Only thing i can think of is GAlarm
[Touch HD General] Moony1987:
It is caused by GAlarm. Windows Mobile wakes up at midnight to rebuild it's schedule queue for the day. It by default is 15 seconds, however GAlarm alters it to 2 minutes to make sure that the entire schedule is processed.
[Touch HD General] BANE:
thank you for this concise explanation, I have been wondering about this too.

Interesting, I'll try.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lugerry74:
I had try this application, it's work perfect.... i hope that you can improve this program with the possibility of make flash the d-pad of the touch pro when the telephone have signal! you think it's possible??:confused::confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
I'll try it on the next release... :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lugerry74:
i think that there is a little bug... when i start the program the message on the display is "signal monitor ended succes"! by
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
Thank's for reporting...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
A new last alpha version is programmed to march, 03...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] davey1980:
i get the same message :( - i had the samsung omnia and would love this programme to work.. to check for next release.

(would it be possible to add the distance from the mobile to the cell/mast so we know? just an idea):D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
The new alpha2 correct the problem. About the distance, the only thing I found is use GoogleGears for discover the distance/location... but it only work if your connected to the internet... so I´m discarding this idea for now... maybe when I find a better solution than be connected to the internet...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lugerry74:
we must wait another version or you think that its impossibile? thank you for the beatifull work!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
I'm searching for the command to make the dpad flash, haven't found yet... but I think this is possible... I have saw some videos that have this features...

Thanks for trying my program and be sure that new features are coming out very soon....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
Lugerry74, you do have a touch pro? Can you make a test and send me a file? Run the attached signalmonitor.exe at your mobile and send me back the file "\SignalMonitor.txt". From this file I can find how to make the dpad blinks, since I don't have a touch pro to make tests...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] davey1980:
great work so far, will check for bugs.

how about an option to send an sms once sig has been connected? think that would be a great add on if its possible :confused:

just have toi wait to lose sig to try it now grrrr 1 bar everywhere.lol
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
It´s going to have option to show a notification balloon for each event...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Prewien:
I havent tested this program yet, but it sounds really interesting!

i always want t know if i havent lost my connection because sometimes when i pull my diamond out it says one bar but it immediately rises..

but does it has a log already? if not, that would be a nice feature too, for when you missed a message and so that you can see for how long you've lost your connection

gonna check it out when i get home :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
Hi Prewien,

Sounds like a good feature... it will be included very soon... :D

See you
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lugerry74:
i run the program on my touch pro but i don't find the file signal monitor .txt... where is it? i find only setting.ini!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
Hi there... run the signalmonitor.exe from post #14 ... it´s the only one that creates this file on "\" (root) of the device...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lugerry74:
sorry but i don't find this file.... i try to find it everywere!!! help me!!:D:D:D:D

some times on the display of the telephone appear this message:ATTENTION NledsetDevice(NLED_SETTINGS_INFO_ID)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
Hi lugerry74,

I´ve updated the first post with a new zip, on it has the "signalmonitor.exe" that corrects the bug about showing this message and the "signalmonitor - txt.exe" this one creates the file "\SignalMonitor.txt" (on root) when it is starting. That´s the file I need to make sure about how to make the dpad blinks.

I´m really thankful about your help testing now program.

See you...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] davey1980:
not working :( checked the programme says this programme is already running but no sound etc. HOWEVER my fones on silent which mite be cause..so if the fones on silent etc will this sound or go by fone settings...also anychance having options to choose say just vibrate / sound and override fone settings?

will turn fone on and try again :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] davey1980:
yeap working grt, depends on fone sound setttings of course.lol Doh.

grt job thx...now if only u could make a programme to boost my sig.lol
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lugerry74:
you can find the file here!!! i hope this can help you for the project! tell me if you need something else!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
Hi lugerry74,

I think I've not so clear... What you sent me is the .exe that is already included in the .zip of the first post... all you have to do in your mobile is:

1) Run "EndSignalMonitor" to make sure that the original SignalMonitor is not running

2) Run "SignalMonitor - txt"

3) Copy the file "SignalMonitor.txt" (that is located on the root of your mobile) to your computer

4) Send me this file, this file is going to be pretty small... about 5KB or less

After this procedure... you can keep using the program just before this procedure... running "SignalMonitor.exe" to starts the program and "EndSignalMonitor.exe" to end it.

See you

Thanks...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lugerry74:
I hope that this time i make the right operation.... sorry!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] airon11:
is it possible to make the program send all the sms in the outbox when the signal is back on?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lugerry74:
are there no news for us?!?:rolleyes::D:D:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
This week I´ll post a new version... :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] callyoushock:
On mine Mio A502 at loss / registration in network GSM in a sleeping mode the sound is not reproduced, only vibration.

Please, correct.

These sound notifications are very necessary!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] callyoushock:
I was mistaken in the previous message: at loss / a finding of signal GSM

- At the switched off display of a sound was not, vibration was

- In a sleeping mode of a sound was not, vibration was not

Unfortunately, in version 4 the problem remained.

Make, please, in settings additional possibility instead of a sound and vibration to start any program.

For an example: I will choose a script which will wake the device, will reproduce a sound and will translate again in a sleeping mode.

I am sorry, now the program works correctly!

I will continue testing.

There are still wishes:

1. If phone has lost a network and I have not heard a signal about it, it would be good to make signal repetition (for example, in 5 minutes)

2. A sound to make in the form of the vocal message (for example, a female voice: "there is no signal GSM")
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jab1972:
Hi, I have download Alpha 4 version after using Alpha3 version. But I am still having a problem with the phone waking up on signal Off and Signal On.

It does now wake the phone on Data Off and Data On but I would only really like to be informed when the signal is lost and would really like it to wake the phone and sound the alert.

The change notes state that Alpha 4 “Included code to force the windows do "wake up" when it’s on sleep mode” Is this only suppose to work on the data connection or is this a bug.

P.S the program does not alert a Data connection loss if it is a result of a signal loss.

Thanks for you help

Olá Rogério!

Parabéns pela aplicação! Trabalho no mercado telecom e sua aplicação é de muita utilidade pra gente.

Mundo pequeno! Sou daí de Maringá tbm!

Tenho uma sugestão de funcionalidade a fazer que, na minha opinião, poderia agregar ainda mais utilizada ao software.

O software poderia gerar uma entrada na agenda do outlook cada vez que houvesse grandes alterações/variações na qualidade do sinal. Poderia registrar a intensidade e, talvez, a localização baseada no GPS.

Não sei se enxerga utilidade. Foi mais como sugestão.

Mais uma vez parabéns pelo trabalho e grande abraço.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
Hi Fábio,

It´s already included on the next features list the creation of a LOG file, I´ll take note to include on it the GPS position where lost and got the signal.

Rogério
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wilku:
Hi,

One of my suggestion is to add some alert when you get signal from different operator, useful for people who live next to the border or travel and want to be informed when you are on roaming mode.

Second could you please add the option into the .ini file to disable notification bubble - sometimes it gets annoying ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
Hi there wilku,

On the Alpha5 on the ini file and on the Settings Dialog exists an option to disable the notification bubble.

For the second suggestion, I´ll take note for the next features... :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] olimo:
Could you explain what 'Value considerate without signal' means?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ectoric:
could you made additional option in Setting like....

Prompt to make connections/signal Off/On as well...

or

Make Setting option with pernamently Off/On signal if signal connected(this is good when roaming)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
Hi olimo,

Sorry, the label of the edit box was not so clear, going to change on next version.

The idea of this value is below which value SignalMonitor is going to considerate that you don´t have signal, not only 0%. For example, if the value is 10: when the signal strength becomes weaker than 10, than SignalMonitor is going to considerate that you don´t have signal anymore, and than when the signal strength becomes stronger than 10, than SignalMonitor is going to considerate that you have signal from you operator.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
Hi ectoric,

Can you give more details about your idea?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] olimo:
rogeriodeluca, thanks a lot! I'm also interested if there will be any localization options? Our Russian guys like your soft and want to translate it, but Restorator can't get many of the strings. It would be great to have strings in xml or txt files and a language selector.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rogeriodeluca:
Hi there,

Can you explain "any localization options"? About the multi-language stuff, I´m working to make SignalMonitor load all the strings from a file, so it´s going to be possible to translate to any language...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] olimo:
Thanks, that's what we need!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cincy1020:
This is a GREAT idea!

I actually had to install PhoneAlarm just to have this feature. It was the only program I was able to find which would indicate when lost signal. To make a long story short, PhoneAlarm was full of bugs, and a huge hassle for me, so I ended up without signal alarm.

Thanks so much for working on this!!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jiri.klima:
This is really missing on WinMobile platform

Yes, exactly, please include this feature! :)

I am looking everywhere if there is any chance to have this working, but no SMS software is available. For some reason in Windows Mobile you have no option to have your SMS messages re-send when signal connection is restored, for example if you are travelling in subway. It happens to me very often and I believe 99% of WinMobile users would really appreciate this.

On "dumb" GSM phones you usually get message like "SMS sending failed, do you want to resend later?".

Thanks
