Very good application

Hallo I am 46 years old, I live in Jakarta - Indonesia.

Thank you very much, this aplication is very helpfull for me to know who is calling.

Before I installed this application, i have a problem with XPERIA standar caller ID because my eyes already got +2.

Once again thank you, may God bless you.
[XPERIA X1 General] F-Styla:
I'm glad it helped you. ;)
[XPERIA X1 General] mety333:
I LOVE THIS! and i use it for like a week already

BUT..

if im talking and have a new call waiting on the other line i cant see who it is!

i can answer it though but cant tell who it is until i answer.

ANY fix for that?!

thanks in advance!!!!

Hi all,

Noob user here :)

I've a problem with my XDA IIs that I thought I'd get some advice on rather than dispensing of it. Basically...it won't switch on. When plugged into mains the red light comes on for a bit then goes off.

Phone was working perfectly, put it in my pocket got home and nothing, assumed it crashed but doesn't respond to anything. Has been sat on my wardrobe for over a year but could do with using it for sat nav.

Any advice on what to try? Could be the battrey but don't wanna fork out extra cash for a new one as it's even more money lost:(

If I wasn't to fix it, any idea on what it's worth? Screen is unmarked and it has all standard accessories with it.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] red_hanks:
Save you BA man! More or less it's the battery (I think). Or the internal battery is drained to 0%. Have you tried charging it first for a couple of minutes?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Astecas:
Yeah tried charging overnight. Charge light comes on for a bit then goes out. Does the same thing when connected via usb, red light comes on but it doesn't register on the pc.

Was working fine but then one day it just woudn't come on. Would like to keep it if I can, got a touch diamond too now, but this is actually a better phone to use!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] red_hanks:
try to use a different battery first. And let's see what happens next. :)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Astecas:
Yeah, I may have to but want to avoid as much extra cost as I can :o

Bit more info, using the docking station plugged into the mains:

Batt alone - Charge light on dock comes on.

BA alone - Red light on BA comes on.

BA with batt attached - no lights on.

Any ideas??
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] red_hanks:
can you try to put it in bootloader mode?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Astecas:
Don't know how to :o

Plus it doesn't actualls switch on or register on the PC, so can I do much to it?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] red_hanks:
It's just like what I did with my BA a few days ago, I am flashing it with a new ROM and while in the process I intentionally unplugged the cable during the process and I got an error on my PC and my BA does not turn on anymore. I tried to put it in bootloader mode a couple of times and it did and I re-flashed it again. And it works. Check the wiki...:)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] phezthie:
yeah, the best thing to do to isolate the problem.. :D

no need to buy at once, borrow first, then if your BA works using another's batt, thats the time you need to decide spending... :D:D cheers
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] + Que PPC:
The same problem I had!!!!!!!!!!

I had this trouble... and... YUP!!!!! is the backup battery.

So you cant charge your BA via USB if the main batt reaches less than 35% so keep it safely above 35% men...

BTW... if you have your batt less than 35% the OS can be runing just a little seconds so your batt is dying is not truth that it have 35% it has almost 5% trust me... :cool:

Yes!!!! the red led Turns On a little then Goes off... so sad isnt it?... now your backup batt is almost 0% thats why your red led appears... so...

Get a craddle USB-AC_Charging base it has a backtrace to charge apart the batt charge it individual. Once you get a full charged main batt, let your BA rest a little on the freezer to obtain a little power of the Backup batt... (YES ON THE FREEZER!!! :p) at least 3 minutes before you plug the main batt.

It wakes up the device... maybe it becomes a few seconds on but... is enough.... if it starts... cradle your entire device on the craddle and wait till its full charged... again the green led appears cause the main is full but let it charge more and more... caus there is no led indicator for backup batt.

NOP!!!!!!! I dont do the freezer trick when i had this problem... cause i get it works faster than you...

Hope this works... post your adventure men....
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Astecas:
Red Hanks/Que - Tried both those (ok, maybe not the freezer bit!), and stil no joy. Gonna go out over the weekend and see if a repair shop can try another battrey. Otherwise I may be saying goodbye :-(

Phezthie - The BA was rare when new, now they are non-existent. No chance of borrowing a friends.

Cheers for the help guys.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] + Que PPC:
Well it is a nice idea!

you can make a modded battery for BA with two nokia bl 5c taiwan batts... check the post on winmo 6 subforum.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] red_hanks:
In my opinion. it's the internal battery since you didn't use the phone for over a year. Hope you can make your BA alive again because there's so much nice apps waiting out there...:)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Astecas:
I was using it daily before this though, it suddenly stopped working one day. It did however crash a few times before it finally went. I'll have a read up on changing internal batt. Red...I'm gonna try and save it!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] red_hanks:
Ok...keep us posted and good luck mate!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] phezthie:
both batteries, main and backup, could be the reason thats why you need to determine which one of it by isolating the cause of the problem. to know if its the main battery, you can improvise by using different battery with same voltage rating (3.7volts, no need to worry as to the Ah rating), but be sure to connect the proper polarity to the BA's correct pin terminals, otherwise, power circuit of your BA will be compromised. :D:D

As to the backup battery, you can do nothing it but to replace if defective. the "freezer trick" is actually one of the shattering myths of electronics and cannot be relied upon to have an optimal performance, as it neither charge nor extend the life of the battery. it simply reduces the the power dissipation (power loss due to heat and resistance) during the initial boot so that it can draw enough power to run unit in its chargeable condition. :)

but since it is not prossible to borrow or no available battery can be used as a test unit, I suggest that you try the first procedure aforementioned, this of course, if you are familiar with battery polarities and know the corresponding terminals of the unit. regards :D:D
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Astecas:
Hmmmm, my diamond has a 3.7v batt...never thought of that!

Cheers mate, but I've just paid for one off ebay so I'll just wait for that to come now. If it doesn't do it I may be selling up...:(

Fingers crossed:)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Astecas:
Ok, new battrey arrived this morning. Gave it a charge and just tried it...

....no change :(

Screen, green and blue top corner and red end call lights momentarily flash when I press the power button. Then nothing.

Both batteries seem to charge in the cradle but not in the phone.

So, any other suggestions oh technically superior ones?? :D

Btw, I received 2 batteries this morning, so I've listed the new one to get some cash back here:

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] red_hanks:
Hey Astecas...I went to my friend the other day who has a BA also. He asked me to drop by in his place 'cuz he has the same problem as yours with his BA. It does not turn on, when he charge it red lights goes on then it turns off. Battery is ok 'cuz I've tried it on mine. So what I did, I simultaniously pressed power+reset+camera to put it in bootloader mode. For a couple of times trying it does not work but then I was able to put it in bootloader mode after 12th attempt. Then I flashed it with sun's 21189 ROM. Now it's working. In my opinion the OS of his BA was corrupted but I don't know how...he told me he just left his phone for a couple of days and of course he was not able to charge it. Maybe the internal battery was drained. Can you try and try to put it in bootloader mode? :)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Astecas:
I have tried that a few times but nothing. It's clear that the power button and screen are fine, so the problem does seem to be software related.

Maybe removal of the backup battrey will do it, but after it's been left standing so long it shouldn't matter should it? I messed up a ROM update on a WM3 iPaq once, left it overnoight and voila hard reset complete.

It's just a shame as with WM6 I think it'll prob be a nicer unit than my diamond!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] beakybal4:
have you tried taking out the battery and leaving it on charge for an hour or so, then putting in the battery then leaving it on charge and then trying to bootup.

And if all else fails, ill always swap my blue angel for your diamond :)- im in the UK :)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] emahuni:
Hi m8.

sha, I have pretty much the problem of a compromised power circuitry and I am looking for a solution. My problem is that I carelessly switched the polarities of my BA and ever since it doesn't come on via battery anymore. If I connect it to it's craddle, it switches on and then restarts when it finishes loading the os just at the today screen. My guess is, it is looking for the batt.

Do you have any idea what I can do to save my BA?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Astecas:
First bit, yep tried two different batteries, fully charged etc. Unfortunately it doesn't respond so I can't even get it to boot or sync.

Second bit...nope:p . What I meant was that the BA is still a cool device, it's about 5 years old but doesn't seem it. For me the touch HD is the only thing since which is comparible in terms of screen size, features etc...but then it has no keyboard.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Astecas:
If it's still switching on and loading up, that it appears you haven't fried the BA itself, but have done some damage to either the battery itself or more likely the batt terminal on the BA.

Firstly I'd try a new batt as that't the easier fix (I'm actually selling one atm ;)), see if you can borrow a friends? If that doesn't work you may need to be doing more work to the connection circuits etc on your BA, which is not as easy.

NB, I don't consider myself a techie so may be talking garbage:D
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] phezthie:
based from your description, sad to say, your problem is no longer the battery but most probably the power circuit itself. unlike typical electronic gadgets, most pdas have no power fuse or reverse polarity protection circuitry except for that miniature diode that protects the mainboard from such unwanted mistake to minimize damage. if yu are familiar how to open yur BA, trace the terminals and look for that first component (rectanglar one) usually with white line on one side if its busted, burned or open. if it is, using a tiny round tip soldering iron, if yu happen to have no access to hot air solder, and remove it. to check the degree of damage to other components, yu can use a typical replacement diode in the meantime to see if there are other parts that are affected. if yu can hav a picture of the power circuit board, post here and let us try to identify components affected. regards:D:D

Good luck with 'SurfaceMount Circuitry"&"ThroughPlated PCB" repair

http://s564.photobucket.com/albums/ss87/DroidDotBot/ Page2->PowerConn..

PCB / PrintedCircuitBoard - Look at the size of the components on any circuit board, (this is "assembled both sides, and is tiny!)

older tv's have "tracks on one side, around holes going through the board to a blank/printed side.

This side(Full/Partially full of components) white component labels alongside (to aid manufacture/repair) IC100, R003, D011 etc (Got any that are silver tracks on the white biscuit?)

Pc MoBo's are ThroughPlatedBoards - wikipedia pcb

This new(/now its actually old) technology of minimization, soon became a pain to the repairs trades, #===# [ ~Good Luck~ ] #==#

Robot arms build these on the assembly lines,(not completely). Cost rules the day, a faulty component @ manufacture stage costs pennies <for the whole board!>? (run of 3 million units"-board65031/side1+2=quick test"). okay the board works, assemble the rest to the specs. for each carriers's requirments.

Thus rendering them, "disposable technology" - (< recycle it as spares / repairs - Power/Charging Damaged >)on fleabay, SORRY

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] phezthie:
its true, just like what DroidDotBot said, micro technology in electronic components and double sided PCBs are pain in repair trade... :D:D making it somewhat impossible to restore damaged boards. if you dont have specialized tools and technical know how, the only solution you have is to replace the board or, worse, the unit itself.... :)

However, notwithstanding such seemingly impossible repair task, there are occasions that the only damaged component in such reverse polarity freak will be the protective diode which, i might say, can be replaced with ease (just like repairing a laptop LCD inverter) since its not really that tiny compared to other components ... :D it is for this reason why im asking emahuni if it is possible to post the pic of the board to help us visualize and identify what was the extent of damage with hope that my assumption is true... cheers :D:D:D

it appears, apparently, this thread is full of electronic enthusiasts albeit outdated by adv tech LOL :D:D on the brighter side, its nice to know that im not alone in craving to hold those obsolete transistors, thyristors, caps and resistors (not micro of course) :D:D

back to the concern at hand..:) with reference to DroidDotbot's pic (Power 002) and labeling (assuming the one encircled is the problem component)...

Use a multimeter and check if that encircled component is shorted or open. if shorted, yu need to remove it using a low power soldering iron. if open, leave it there for the meantime and, for the purpose of determining whether there are other components affected, connect a power (not zener, switching or signal) diode (IN4001 will do), be sure however to observe the proper polarity otherwise it will not work (although wrong polarity will not damage other components as it will simply block the current to pass through it).

The issue of size is not really the primary factor to consider at this stage (in determining the extent of damage). you can connect the test diode for such purpose by soldering lead wires (# 22 or smaller) to the terminals of the defective component (again, be sure that the wires you used are properly shielded or insulated against the other components or the PCB itself). if your BA will come to life using this procedure, that is the time to look for the proper component (the proper specs and size). But assuming you cant find one, the test diode can be used as permanent one although you have to look for extra space in your BA where you can have it in place (its new place :D:D) by running the lead wire from it.... thats the wonder of electronics.. :p thanks to DroidDotbot btw, cheers mate :D:D

my former blue angel also suffered from these symptoms

it suddenly died one day as i take photos, at first i thought that it was just a simple low battery problem, but when i got home, charge it, the two upper lights just flicker and nada, no response,

i tried other IIs battery but still, no response,

then i stumbled upon this very thread, and noticed the 'freezer mod', but before that i killed my main battery by opening it and shorted something within, (i used a multitester and there are no response from the ports)

back to my story, i did the freezer mod but i didn't put my whole unit on the fridge, i pried off the backup battery and put it in fridge for an hour (wrapped it first on newspaper then sealed on a resealable bag) took it our from the fridge, let it stay at room temperature for a while, then charging it directly (using my ripped nokia charger and attaching the terminals directly on the right polarity) pressed it on the battery for around 10 seconds then i put it back in the BAs circuit board

assembled the thing and connect it to my charger,

this time, the upper right Red Led lit, the main battery was dead so i have no other way to test if the device will work and i have no time to bring it to the mall where i first borrowed a battery,

purchasing a new battery will set me back at least php1200, knowing that i screwed up my BA sometime ago (screwed up the keyboard flex cable, the vibration socket, and the volume adjuster) i just opted to but a 2nd hand BA which cost around 5000php, luckily, i saw a post selling his BA with LCD defect at 1500php,(i got the whole unit with perfect working internals except for the lcd with flex cable problem, with a good condition battery and charger) i bought it and put in my LCD, now im reliving the days with my beloved BA :)
