Ok, I purchased an ADP1 last month and have been running into issues since.

So far:

1. Phones been creaky. I had to fix this by putting electrical tape on the chin of the phone.

2. The earpiece makes a buzzing noise, occasionally harder to hear than the caller on the other end. Had to fix this with more electrical tape on the earpiece.

3. The back battery case was making a chirping noise when I held it with my hand. Had to apply electrical tape on the inside of the case to fix that.

4. Now -- Just discovered that my pictures I take have a huge black spot on each of them (I've attached a picture as an example... the spot is usually noticeable during the day time/outside, but thats a picture against a white wall). Does anyone know how to fix this issue/experience this problem as well?

So many problems with this product is really starting to piss me off. Can anyone offer any suggestions on #4? I've fixed the others with tape. But I just discovered #4 and I'm really beginning to lose patience here.
[G1 General] xdavidn88:
Defective phone, return it for a new one.
[G1 General] savethechicken:
Yeah I would say that you have a defective phone need to look into getting it replaced or return for another one. As for number 4 the only thing I can think of is something on the camera lense or the backcover of the phone but that would be to easy
[G1 General] uberingram:
Get a new one.
[G1 General] kp126:
man that buzzing sound is really annoying me too... disappointed...

i just dont want to send it in because i paid to have this one unlocked and paid to have a full body shield which i installed on it...

thats like 40 dollars i would lose out on

hopefully you have better luck
[G1 General] someprogr:
Yeah, well actually I fixed the buzzing noise with black electrical tape on the keyboard ends. I havent heard the noise since.

As far as the spot goes on my camera lens, I'm going to write a perl script that undertakes gimp and automatically eliminates dust from any pictures I take with the click of a button. Hopefully that will fix that issue.

I'd hate to send it in too and get a 'refurb' that has different problems etc.
[G1 General] coolbho3000:
Open up the back cover and wipe the camera. Maybe that spot is just a spot on the lens.
[G1 General] savethechicken:
Refurbs don't always have "different problems" a refurb is a remanufactured device. Which in most cases is better off then a "Brand New" phone because they go through more testing. I have a "refurb" because of the creaking and I have not experienced anything wrong with this device, and have had it for about 2 months. Not always the case but why "put up"with something that you can have fixed. Also refurbs are not always returned devices due to failure, granted the majority are but some also come back as "buyers remorse" type return. "I didn't like it, I don't want it."

Sorry for the long post but point is don't just "put up" with something because of the misconception that because you are getting a refurb it will automatically have problems. You are just cutting yourself short and will never be happy with your device.
[G1 General] uberingram:
Sooth. The refurb I'm running (TMo forced me to RMA my initial one in November due to a dead cell tower in my neighborhood) was in better condition than my first one. I love customers at my job that whine, piss and moan about receiving a refurb as a replacement. New items aren't tested and there is an acceptable failure rate out of the box. That's the way it is with EVERY equipment manufacturer where as refurbs are tested and repackaged. Personally, I'll buy used if it was tested as functional and comes with the same warranty (which generally happens). But today's generation is now now now, new new new = better better better.
[G1 General] savethechicken:
lol i was typing from g1 so i felt the post was getting to long thus i left out the testing that refurbs go thru. i hear this all day, this is always the biggest complaint but people really dont understand what goes into remanufacturing a device
[G1 General] ckrest:
how about removing the electrical tape from the camera lens.

Just a thought
[G1 General] someprogr:
Ok, well im considering returning it back to brightstarcorp.

There they have to conduct "testing" to determine whether its a hardware problem and its "damaged" or "defective"

Would a dust speck fall under this category?

Hi.

If you need Finnish or Swedish keyboard layout for your Touch Pro download it here.

Install to device -> soft reset.

- ä = Fn + a

- ö = Fn + o

- å = Fn + p

;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jimmyhawkin:
IMBA! ill try it out now
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jimmyhawkin:
Thats for t9. It does not help making the Hardware keyboard make åäö.

Im using Nrg Rom and if your nor suplied with the swedish flies this does not work...

t9 works fine thoe. but nothing allse.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] tsaros-se:
The hardware keyboard is a easy regedit to make it swedish,

HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\

Change CurLang to 1044 and softreset for swedish hardware keys.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jimmyhawkin:
your not lissning. even thoe i do that with the nrg rom you still dint get the åäö to show upp! :) like i said. in all the software modes when using the screen too klick it works without a problem.

But as soon as a switch over and open upp the hardware keyboard it will not typ åäö. If i do Fn + O for exampleall it does is make a normal o...

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jimmyhawkin:
Hi there m8. Even with your program it still does not help me. If you open upp my Phne and start using my Hardware keyboard with the nrg rom it wont make Ö when i do FN + O....

I just get a normal o.

So im not doing anything wrong and what it seems is that everyone does not understand that this is not the REGISTRY that is the problem. Or if the keyboard is set to fuzz or HTC keyboard.

It seems as if the Swedish files are not in Nrgs rom so ÅÄÖ wont show no matter what registry fixes you do.

So i think that what is needed is the Swedish files in order for this to work. NOT any registry fixes... Do you understand my problem now?

Cause i used your program. I have tried about 5 diffrent regfiles witch realy does about the same thing :)

and as i see your program is allso just a reg changer that changes the curlang 2 = 41d

Witch beliave me or not its set 2 and i still only get a o when typing FN + O witch should then become a Ö
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] tsaros-se:
what version of the nrg rom are you using?

i have ran 1.5, 1.6, 1.7 and 1.0 (1.8) and all of them are fully capable of running the Swedish hardware keyboard.

install the touch pro keyboard cab located in the nrg rom thread softreset, change curlang to 1044, softreset and thats it.

Im not sure what files you are after, i can´t recall that i have ever read about any language files for the hardware keyboard, T9 yes not not hardware keys.

if you are running the 2.x series im am fully willing to flash my rom and try the exact same think since im confident that it will work.

Please answer this question:

Did you or did you not install the touch pro keyboard cab for the nrg rom?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jimmyhawkin:
Use 2.0 and used the keyboard changer thats in the rom.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 6sto:

Hi.

I have used that cab with almost every EnergyROM version there has been (including betas) and that cab has always worked fine. I also tried one 6.5 version and this cab was not working with it - allthough, I did not try very hard...

Things I do:

- change regional settings -> Finnish

- change keyboard layout to Touch Pro

- install the cab

- soft reset

=> now it should work...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] KinCaidk:
@6sto

Tried to do exactly what you wrote, but without success.

I am using EnergyROM Series 2.0 Build 32409

Sorry to hear that it didn't work. I apologize but I can't help you any more with this. I hope we have much better helpers here in XDA-developers. Can you help with this issue? Everything is working OK with my Touch Pro!

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] tsaros-se:
not sure what to say, just flashed the latest nrg 2.0 as i promised, changed keyboard with the provided tool, power cycled like i was prompted to do, changed curlang to 1044 and softreset, and now i have my Swedish hardware keyboard.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jimmyhawkin:
Do you realy have ÅÄÖ visual when typing FN + o on the hardware keyboarD? i failt do think you do that. on t9 yeh. but not on the hardware keyboard.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jimmyhawkin:
And with Nrg rom 2.0 i changed to nor fin swe dk well all but still when typing fn+o i get = o.

And used the keyboard program so its Htc keyboard and not fuzz. Nothing will do it it seems.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] tsaros-se:
Yes, i dont use T9 at all, only hardware keyboard.

Please write in detail what you are doing after you hardreset your device.

follow the steps like both i and others have written in this thread, dont skip any steps and it will work for you.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] tsaros-se:
you do change the regkey to 1044 in decimal value and softreset after you change the keyboard layout to touch pro right?

in the 2.0 all you need to do is change to touch pro keyboard and then change curlang to 1044 decimal value and softreset, that is it.

im not sure how to help you, i even flashed the 2.0 to test it for you, no problems at all, i honestly suggest you start looking at what you are or are not doing compared to the guides.

Follow the guides we wrote for you and it WILL work.

Good luck.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jimmyhawkin:
It is acualy as you say. If you direcly after installing the rom do as you say it will work. BUT here comes the tricky part.

What if you want both the hardware keyboard to work. And the t9?

Cause id realy like to have the phone as it is in the swedish vertion. Were both are working.

Cause as of now i know how to get either t9 or hardware keyboard working but not both.

Anyone that knows a solution to getting the t9 in swedish when you have hardware working?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jimmyhawkin:
The more i read about it the more i come to the conclution that no one acualy knows how to have both hardware keyboard swedish and the t9 swedeish @ the same time. is that correct? cause one you try to make the t9 swedish then the hardware keyboards åäö dissapears.

[XPERIA X1 General] Sebastienm:
Hi,

I currently live in the UK and I will be moving to Australia in a few months.

I'd like to buy an X1 but even after spending hours on the net trying to find an answer, I can't decide what's the best version to buy to enjoy 3G in Oz and Europe: X1a or X1i?

I will be living in Sydney, but ideally I'd like to have good 3G coverage in all major east coast cities (X1i 900MHz OK?), and possibly in the countryside (X1a 850MHz mandatory?). It's also hard to tell which network provider is best (coverage, price) when you don't live there...

Please could you give me your opinion?

That would be great if you live in Australia and can advise accordingly :)

This post and the associated thread are good, but I still can't really decide: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3409009&postcount=15

Many thanks in advance,

Seb
[XPERIA X1 General] wolver1ne:
I was in Australia 3 weeks ago and X1i worked just fine there. No idea about 3G, but I would say it all depends on the provider and how well they cover it.
[XPERIA X1 General] nonno:
Both the X1i and X1a work here, but on different networks. Our largest provider Telstra uses the 850MHz band so you will need an X1a for them. You can buy an X1a on contract with them. Other providers like Optus and Vodaphone use the 900MHz band so you would need an X1i for them. Optus is just about to introduce an x1i contract (I think). Telstra is supposed have the most extensive coverage, (out bush) but I have an optus service and live in the country and their coverage is fine. In terms of cost of service Optus cost a way lot less than Telstra. The main telco forum site here is whirlpool.net.au. It will give you a good flavour of what, what's good and what isn't.

Oh one last thing … you'll pay a lot less for an X1 purchased outright in the UK than you will here in Oz.
[XPERIA X1 General] Sebastienm:
Thanks a lot, very useful information! :)
[XPERIA X1 General] Leddy:
You'll need to consider which carrier you join very carefully. All carriers use 2100MHz WCDMA in major cities and suburbs, but outer rim suburbs and rural areas will use 850MHz (Telstra) or 900MHz (Optus & Vodafone). There is another carrier called "3" but they only have a small metropolitan 2100MHz deployment and roam on to Telstra GSM (not 3G) at the same call rate for the rest of the time. (However, data is charged at a different, exorbitant rate.)

Telstra is the most reliable, but the most expensive- any other 3G data carrier is likely to be completely overloaded at peak times, depending on where you live. Optus is popular with the younger population because they have the best prepaid deals (possibly the best medium to heavy use data + calls deal around). 3 is also popular with that demographic because they offer decent call rates and a large amount of free minutes between their own customers, however bad for business because of issue with data roaming.
[XPERIA X1 General] Sebastienm:
Thanks for the additions.

I kind of made my mind to get the X1i and I will probably get an Optus pre-paid once I get there.

I'm an advance GPS user with a Verizon Titan (XV6800) and custom ROM. I'm fully unlocked with a completely functioning GPS (no AGPS here and no digital connection fees).

I'm really impressed with Garmin XT for the phone and novice users. The added features through WIFI are very good. Speedcams and other added features are easily obtained for for a small fee or free for experienced users (lots of sites to download free).

Superior of all the SW out there is IGO8, 3D terrain and 3D buildings in major cities (WoW). Highly customizable --- the very best (NavNGO.com)

I would not buy or desire to use Tom Tom, I have over 40 hours of use and do not like their SW no matter how I try.

Least expensive SW with the greatest utility (including free trial) is POLNav v5.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] cdeleoxda:
RangerDave and ShadowT thanks for the info.

RangerDave could you point me in the direction where I can download the TT7 for the XV6800? Also I believe that once I have the TT7 running it will ask me to download a map of my area to demo correct?

Thanks,

[Mogul, XV6800 General] rangerdave:
Well since you have 2 posts here I will tell you like this.

Dear Mr @%$^*!$$.

Asking for free software is not following the rules here.

You will either pay $$ for it or hit up your other friend "google" and see what he says. Even with google you may still pay for it with a nice fat bug on your pc.

I'm not going to tel you how to get it for free unless tomtom web site has a free trial, then you still have to unlock the software, optain the map, unlock the map, create a pair of files with some special code that were a pain in the butt..............

RD
[Mogul, XV6800 General] cdeleoxda:
Ok,

I'm not looking at getting it for free what I'm not understanding is you said you had TT7 working. I go to TomTom's site I don't see TT7 Navigator only TT5 and TT6. Then I read that the Navigator is free but you have to buy the maps. I don't have a problem buying the maps as long as I know it works on my phone. From what I had read in other posts is that you can install TT7 and then through TT7 go to the TomTom site and download a demo map of your area. This is what I want to try to find out if I can get it working on my phone. I know I have to do some rom upgrades and radio upgrades to get GPS working on the phone but I would like to try it with a Demo if they have one before I go out and buy it. When I asked for a link I was more referring to a link on TomTom's site where the TT7 could be downloaded with the demo maps. However I can't even find TT7 on the site at all.

Thanks,

Chris

Chris,

I have the mogul 6800 and have the TT7 and it is pretty reliable- so highly recommend it. I paid someone (works at cellphone place) to upgrade my rom (Sprint) and get the GPS working. I have also tried iGO8 but it was somewhat buggy... but great app. My bud has iGuidance 09 on his XV6800, it works great as the TT7 and doesn't hogg the few memory that the htc 6800 has... But my other bud has the HTC Touch Pro with Garmin TX and that is the best one, visual speaking..

But I say the TT7 is just right for the 6800... I hear the new Diamond2 will also pre-installed too.

Worth upgrading to get the GPS working...

Good luck Chris...

So i've got TomTom working by using GpsGate 2.6 and setting tomtom to use Other NMEA GPS receiver with baud rate of 9600 and the Franson COM2.

Living in Israel, I have run into issues with daylight savings time on my Windows Mobile device more than once in the past.

Due to political reasons combined with the usage of a lunar calendar for some purposes (this one in particular), Israel has a differnt daylight savings period each year.

Microsoft has never provided a good and straightforward solution for this. In recent years I had the chance to speak to more than one representative of Microsoft in Israel. The solutions were finally provided, but it never felt like they wanted users to get them.

Of course, without the correct DST settings, all appointments get offset by 1 hour (either compared to real life, or just compared to Outlook, which gets the correct settings from Windows, which in turn gets them from my company's IT manager).

This can become quite a mess if not taken care of in time, i.e., before the DST change occurs.

This year, preparing for the DST change scheduled for the coming Friday (March 27th), I searched the Microsoft support pages and found this update, which is supposed to do the work. I believe this is just the second time Microsoft has released such an update (the first was March 2008).

The update is for several countries including also Iran, Egypt and Argentina.

Need Help for Israel DST 2011

:mad: Can't find this file anylonger on MS site.

Can you post a download link for KB958729 ?

I have tried kb977014 or kb975353 and neither one solves the issues this year 2011. Any suggestions ?
[General Topics] skamin:
Hi globalgpj,

KB958729 will not help you, it's only good for 2009.

I myself am facing the same problem since yesterday morning, obviously.

A Microsoft solution is not available, quite clearly because of the discontinuation of WinMobile and transfer to WP7.

What we need to be looking for is the registry entry that sets the daylight savings change date, and modify it to next Friday, which is when we really change to DST here in the holy land. This might not be easy. See the info here, which I'm still trying to figure out.

This link does show a registry entry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock] / "HomeDST": REG_DWORD, which looks like it it can provide a temp solution. That is, if you change it from "1" back to "0", you disable DST. Then you can set it to "1" again next Friday morning.

However, I've tried, it keeps changing back automatically.

So, no solution so far, sorry. I'll keep trying and let you know if I find anything. Otherwise, perhaps a different time zone (Moscow?) for the coming week will do the trick.
