[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkwolfde:
This really seems to be an AT&T Problem. My X1 hands over 3G (actually 3.5) and Edge quite well during calls. I have here a low 3G signal, but good Edge signal. 3G is prefered so I´ve an handover quite often.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bees:
I'm on Vodafone in the UK and while my colleagues on the same Network have a signal using other phones, my X1 invariably does not. I usually have to go to the other side of the office to get a signal. Hope new firmware can sort the problem out.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] williamn:
I've got ATT/X1A in NYC and have no problem unless I'm in some basement. Perhaps the OP has limited himself by selecting a particular band and/or network type? I know if I purposely select WCDMA my 3G will drop because it's pretty spotty out here. Call quality is perfect if I have them both on Auto.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jas0607:
New firmware isn't going to fix it. It's a hardware issue caused by the build of the device, structure and materials used etc - they are blocking the signal slightly.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] williyung:
Yes, you're right. I've tried to use the latest Radio version (1.11.25.76), but there's no improvement in the signal quality.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordJCS:
No problem with signalstrength in my case.. I´m currently using Tele2 as my serviceprovider.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadowdh:
I also have no problems with signal strength, I used to have a big problem getting HSDPA but once I changed my sim to a 3g one its full blast... we live out in the sticks and I often have full bars on edge in most places in my house... sometimes even a bar of H in my living room... never had a dropped call... *touches wood*

@Ganondolf (post #11)

" ... sony has already said that the signal is weaker due to the metal housing of the handset ..."

Could you supply your source for this please ?

I've tested the X1 and my Polaris with the same SIM card in exactly the same marginal signal area one after the other.

Result - the Polaris easily found enough signal to work while the X1 stayed dumb and stupid.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moleculez:
X1 has been having network issues from day 1. Not just its poor on network quality it takes real long to even re-search the lost network. As someone mentioned u type a sms and by the end of the sms the network is gone.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddevilx:
don't have such problems with typing and sending, even in the subway.

what does annoy me, is that the wi-fi signal is at least twice lower than of my notebook and I often lose the network and it takes some time to recover it, whilst there are no such problems with my laptop.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ganondolf:
There was an interview with the se before it came out, sorry dont have source. But if u go to the se website (uk) go to support and faq there is a section that tells u that it has a booster to try and combat the problem when it has low signal.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myuri:
My first post here.

My experience. In my bedroom the signal is soo bad that everytime i pick up the phone to reply smses it'll fail and search for signal. so recently i bought a capdase case for it(something like a flip case). it never looses signal anymore. but the signal still sucks with 1 or two bars. my guess is whenever i touch the metal cover at the back, the signal starts to fluctuate. and in very bad coverage area (my bedroom) the signal is lost.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drspain:
might be crazy... has anyone polled to see if this problem affects the silver casing or the black - only?

seems to be a split on how well the X1 performs here. Could there be a problem in the paint coating?

Cheers,

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ResPecT_Cs:
It would be nice if You guys posted what Xperia You have. I mean, is it a black or a silver one.

I'm starting to think that there's a huge batch of faulty silver Xperias on the market.

And many of us got those.

Just a theory, though.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luirhy:
try changing network settings. change it to your country's workng band network and NOT automatic. also GSM only. this will stop the phone from continually resetting and trying to get different signals
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] agtwashington:
Okay I have tried searching and haven't found an answer. When I am signed in using Oz IM it creates an icon in the top "taskbar" (I can't find an official name for that area), and on my phone since I use both Yahoo and MSN it creates a multiple notification bubble. This hides the fact that I may have a text message or a missed call from being able to see at a glance on the top of the screen. Is there any way to extend the visible area so that I can see more icons, remove existing system icons or remove the Oz IM icons all together (this would be the more preferable solution)?

I am aware of this post:

Also I should mention I am running the EnergyROM 1.x series, build 32609

[XPERIA X1 General] prking07:
Well guys i know theres a lot of people here that have had problems with the new panel manager from R3a on R2A roms and were fed up with it. I too had a very bad problem, i installed the new panel manager and it cause conflicts with S2U2, so much that the panel stoped working, even after i had uninsnce i had talled S2U2 panels would not start or when they did they froze up. Now i really wanted the growing panel and the cnn panel, and was willing to dish them but a hard reset was not what i wanted.

So i tested the following and it works!!! to perfection!! Now since i had made a backup of the old panel manager, i went ahead and took the old panelmanager.exe and droped it inside the panelmanager folder, overwriting the new exe, and all of a sudden all my panels work like before, but faster smoother and best of all ccn panel and growing panel work!!!! And it now has no conflict whatsoever with S2U2!! just marvelous!!

If trying this out, remember to make sure that Panelmanager.exe process is killed beforehand or it wont let you overwrite the file. To do this use a third party task manager that will do the job.

anyone having problems with R3A panel manager and wants new panel requiring New panelmanager, give this a try and post feedback, i know for me and a buddy of mine it just revived our X1s.

Old panelmanager.exe is atached for those that want to try it. Now i have a LAM rom(spanish) so dont know if it will work on others. Just extract and replace the new one with this one.
[XPERIA X1 General] hypoh:
There's a cab for the old panel manager inside the windows folder. All you needed to do was run that to install over the new one.
[XPERIA X1 General] vector4agn:
Have you tried it with the new media panel? That is the real test as the growing panel can work with the old panel manager as soon as you have flash installed. I don't know though about the CNN panel.
[XPERIA X1 General] prking07:
the New media panel opens but doesnt work, just keepslagging, the cnn panel works 100%. I read somewere the cnn panel requires new panel manager, so im happy with growing panel and cnn panel working with S2U2 at the same time.

I really dont use media panel at all, never have, never will. the panels i use most are facebook panel, and the cnn panel now. For media i use Kinoma Play and that beats any media panel hands down.

Old media panel works just fine.
[XPERIA X1 General] ipporek:
Hmm... didn't know S2U2 doesn't work with the new panel manager. That's gonna hold me back from upgrading in future. :(
[XPERIA X1 General] AF241:
Can someone please upload the exe. I would like to give it a try.
[XPERIA X1 General] prking07:
ajajaj neither did i or my friend till our panels stoped working afetr s2u2 installs, and even after uninstalls, it seems that s2u2 breaks something in the process or leaves something behind causing conflict. not sure. oh i was using latest s2u2 by the way.

[XPERIA X1 General] Xuanlong:
Just curious, where exactly is the cab for that? What is it called (filename)? I looked at all the cabs in the windows folder, but didnt find one that looked like it. I'd really like to find it though, if it's there.
[XPERIA X1 General] prking07:
here you go buddy. let me know if it works. Ive attached it at first post, enjoy.
[XPERIA X1 General] Jasand:
yeah i need to revert to the old one. where is the cab file and name please?

thanks
[XPERIA X1 General] Darth Sith:
mxp..etcetc...cab
[XPERIA X1 General] Xuanlong:
Nice try, but that's not it. That's the media xperience panel.
[XPERIA X1 General] hypoh:
My mistake; I remembered wrong. The cab I used was for the old MXP, and to revert back to the old panel manager I used a backup of the folder.
[XPERIA X1 General] AF241:
Thanks buddy. I have tested with this the whole day and I didn't have any problems with the WM6.5 unlock screen yet. With the newer version it would show the today screen (putting the unlock and password screen in background) every now and again and the phone would freeze. Same thing used to happen with s2u2 as well. And this used to happen quite frequently as well.
[XPERIA X1 General] prking07:
Yeah i had tons of problems with S2U2 and new panel manager also. But now is just works! and best of all you can have the cnn panel and the growing panel working. The new media xperience panel is not working but thats fine with me i jus have the old one installed. cnn and growing were the most important to me anyways. glad i was of help.

well just have to wait if a future version of S2U2 comes out that adresses this or a newer panel manager.
[XPERIA X1 General] amitagrawal:
sorry what third party task manager u use to copy it over the current file... ??? i have total commander will it do the job? cannot copy otherwise
[XPERIA X1 General] vector4agn:
You could try a 3rd party explorer. I have used Resco's one for coping the new panel manager and camera files over the old ones before there were such cabs around. I can't remember though If I had the process closed with a task manager in advance.

P.s.: Total commander is a 3rd party explorer, right? Maybe it's the process you have to close if it doesn't work. I thought about it some more and I can't remember closing any processes.

I wish I was a windows mobile developer and I would have already written this myself! The ideal application would notify you of new text messages and allow you to send out new text messages (ideally with some sort of contact list integration).

Here are the relevant URLs:

SMS (in XML): https://www.google.com/voice/inbox/recent/sms/

Sending an SMS: POST /voice/sms/send/ id=&phoneNumber=[number to text]&text=[URL Encoded message]&_rnr_se=[pull from page]

Anyone up to write this?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] therussman2002:
My app need for google voice would be to translate that number within the text message that shows the sender to their name in your contact list, if available.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] famewolf:
and then your app can get banned by google the same as the iphone app that did the same thing.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RonMon:
famewolf, which app got banned by Google? I'm asking because I saw some articles about iPhone dialers for Google Voice that have full SMS capabilities.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gthing:
Yea - need more info. I know gmail dropped 3rd party SMS usage, and I know Apple bans things under pressure from AT&T, but this is a pretty straightforward implementation. Google would have to shut down the feature or change the URLs for an app using this method to not work.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] MRFERRARI23:
so this app you've created will allow us to do exactly what on our phones?? and when will you release it?? :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] m_drunk:
same thing that GVDialer and iDialer does: allow dialing Google Voice, except it works over the network, like the android (and iPhone?) version, instead of using the tone dialing method. I'm still having trouble parsing the GV inbox stuff, but I'm getting there. Right now I have a BETA that allows you dial, send SMS, browse the regular contacts on your phone to choose numbers to send to, and navigates to the GV mobile inbox. The current version is compiled for WinMo 6, VGA, and the SMS screen is the only screen that supports landscape. So basically, if you've got a VGA slider, like the Fuze, it's for you. It also allows SMS messages bigger than 160 chars, since the service on the backend splits them up automagically. The BETA cab is posted here.

Disclaimer: IT USES THE INTERNET TO DIAL, SO IF YOU DON'T HAVE A COMPARABLE DATA PLAN OR WIFI, DON'T USE IT.

Disclaimer2: THE APP DOESN'T USE SSL TO SEND THE CREDS TO MY SERVICE (YET), SO USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

PS. I know it's ugly, but right now, I don't care.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sid0101:
I second this motion...

I have been wondering if this was possible.

Just to clarify... this would allow us to see and send sms from our google voice number via data plan or wifi right?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] m_drunk:
that's what it does.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sid0101:
Works decent on the Omnia. I have tried the sms with a couple of friends and worked well. I don't know what is possible for this type of program and I know that you are only one person - and I am grateful to you for already providing this software, but I hope to see other great functionality to come of out this app.

Will you be taking suggestions or bug info or anything to help make this a greater program?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] m_drunk:
Of course I am! What kind of developer would I be if I didn't?

Before you suggest something aesthetic, let me just tell you I'm focusing on functionality first.

Here are my current list of improvements that I'm working on:

Bug fixes...I've made a few.

Call intercept: When GV rings back your phone, the app will intercept the call based on CallerID and just pick up the call for you so the phone doesn't even have time to ring. I'm trying to use the DynRIL and DynTAPI to accomplish this, but there's a bug. Anyone that can produce a C# wrapper would be must appreciated.

GV Inbox xml parsing: It's harder that I thought.

Any other suggestions are welcome.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] m_drunk:
I've fixed this bug...at least on WinMo 6.1. Won't post an update until I get the Auto-Pickup done.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sid0101:
Great.

Now, as I said before, I really don't know what this type of program might be capable of - so if my suggestions seem outlandish to you, just disregard.

I was wondering whether or not there could be some notification system with sms? Maybe something that integrates with outlook or an email client. I know this is pushing it, because as I have done my preliminary research on google, it is not possible to foward the sms to an email account yet. But hopefully you can find a way. As it stands, we have to be in the Voicemail portion of the app to see new texts... or is there another way?

Anyhow, when I am actually in the voicemail section of the app to check sms - it is difficult to scroll down. Maybe because it was made for vga... i dunno. But, on my wqvga screen there is no scroll bar and there is no ability to "flick the screen down either." So far the only way I can move down to see new texts is to use my little infrared directional pad, which is a pain in the ass when the text convos are long (i have to scroll/use that thing for that much longer each time.)

I did run into a crash when entering in the contacts list but was not able to reproduce it. If I can, I'll post it here. BTW, I am using 6.5 - don't know if that makes a difference. Furthermore, Kudos bro - you are the first one to attempt this job and it seems like no one else is interested in helping you develop - which is kinda sad. Hope that fact doesn't deter you.

To the OP - Maybe you should post m-drunks cab on the Original post - that way we can get more testers. Or, maybe m-drunk you should make your own thread about this great app.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] m_drunk:
That's what I'm working on right now. There is a slew of html and json to parse to get this info. Maybe finish it tomorrow?

Yes. I've only made a square and VGA version. I'll get another compile on for other res' soon.

I already fixed it. I've just not released it yet.

There is one guy on these forums helping me with a problem I have right now.

If I try to make my own thread, I'll just screw it up. And it's not really a threadjack, so I'll just sit here until I get all my features for RC done. And thank you. Tell your friends! :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sid0101:
Awesome stuff dude. Thanks for your time. Looking forward to the next release.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sid0101:
Oh yeh, there is also a problem with predictive writing. I have the Omnia and my xt9 doesn't work or is not recognized in SMS. Additionally, I have shapewriter which I cannot get to work with it at all. Hopefully that helps in your future builds.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] m_drunk:
guys...I'm having a hell of a time parsing the xml and jason into meaningful managed incoming message objects. once you log into google voice in your browser, you can go to the URL at the beginning of this thread to view the xml/json/html stuff that makes up your inbox and sms inbox. Does anyone in this thread actually code c#? I could sure use some help.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] m_drunk:
I've figured out the parsing. I am now adding the incoming SMS to the app. Please be patient.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] m_drunk:
OK boys and girls. I've got a working SMS history going! Now you can see your message history too! I know it's ugly, and I'll get to working on a pretty version as soon as I get some bugs worked out with the auto-answer. The new cab is in the same place the old one was, right here.

When the auto-answer is working, I'll start on the requests, and probably just start my own thread. Have fun!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ems275:
Previous version worked great for me on WM 6.1, it was flawless.

This new version won't even start I get a "Can't find PInvoke DLL 'DynRilDll.dll' then the detailed error report further states: at RILLib2.RIL.Timer1_Tick(Object state) at System.Threading.Timer.ring()

Can you look into it and fix it, Anxiously waiting to try the new version.

Thanks for all your hard work.
