yes, the LED above the USB connector on your mobile should be blinking.

if the battery went flat completely, it will take some time to start blinking.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fulgore69:
It shouldt blink on sides or it shouldt turn red the power button ...

But sometimes you have to wait some minutes
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buzz83:
Not sure... might dep the rom.

Normally my led's flash/glow... but I haven't had a look at it charging whilst the phone is off.

Charge it for half an hour or so and then try to get the boot loader up (hold power and volume down to turn on).

If the boot loader (striped screen) starts you should be able to fix a bad flash.

Turn the phone off and charge it overnight

get a rom you know (the .nbh or .image file) and rename it "Kovsimg.nbh"

put the Kovsimg.nbh file on the root directory of your storage card (you might want to take the card out of your phone and put it in a card reader to do this)

boot your phone in boot loader mode (hold power and volume down)

follow the prompts to install the good rom.

After its complete, reset your phone (either by putting your stylus in the reboot hole or taking the battery out)

All should be good

Dear all,

Since long time i have an issue with my text sms. Eg. When I send text SMS to any Group (Consist of 10 People) in my X1 the (Receiver) receives more than 5-10 same SMS text messages. This really causes big issue for me in my phone bills & I am still not able to resolve this issue.:(

I have soft reset many times my X1 with new ROM ( X1i_GENERIC_UK_CDF1215-1832_R2AA010 – uploaded and still it remains the same; this ROM caused my camera not to work :(. This is really annoying me. I haven’t changed any sms settings either, but I asked people in that thread, and no one there knows either.:(

My phone also x1 when I keep it long time in the charged the phone screen gets stuck & I am not able to do anything except removing my battery :(:(

Please anyone advice me with the solution. Because I really heated X1 since I bought & all this issues are coming :(:mad:

Try Hard Resetting your phone.

Take battery cover off & stylus out of phone.

Try powering up your phone into bootloader mode (power button & volume down).

Then when in that screen Hold both soft keys down & press the reset button with the stylus. Flip the phone over to reveal the dialogue & then press the r button on the keyboard to reset the phone.

Warning, this will wipe everything off your phone, except the rom !

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] halpmf:
I've been lurking on these forums since I got my diamond, about 5 months ago, and i would like to say, I would have sold my diamond about 2 weeks after buying it if it wasn't for all the knowledge and tools available here. Thank you.

Now, I've been flashing my phone every so often, with ROMs such as Swtos, Panosha, Duttys, AZTOR, Wildberry, Dia Diut, and most recently (wherein the problem lies), NATALY 2.1, Cloudy 1.0 and udK Syrius R3.

Now with these latest three roms (2.03?), i started to encounter a similar problem over and over again, without exception. If I try to launch a program while another is using the CPU, the phone will begin to crash. First it will become unresponsive, then programs will no longer open, and eventually, the only thing that can be done is a soft reset.

For example, the alarm will activate (klaxon), i'll flip the phone, and hit off. Now I know the problem has begun because though the phone has returned to the home screen, the title bar may still show the image from the alarm. Now the phone will work like its cpu is being heavily engaged and I can never reach task manager to see what it is. The hard volume keys frequently cause the phone to begin behaving in this manner. Soft reset only solution again. TF3D still animates, but programs will never appear on the screen if you try to launch them.

Same sort of effect on Cloudy's and udK's, except after the soft reset, the phone would begin to reinstall the rom again, as if some sort critical error occurred.

I have a DIAM130, and i've heard that to install 2.03 base ROMS (such as NATALY2.1 and Cloudy, is that correct?) you should first install a 2.03 SPL and a 2.03 stock ROM, then upgrade the SPL, then the ROM.

The latest SPL i've seen here is 1.93, and installing this increased the stability of these ROMs from 30 minutes to about 1-2 days, but the same problem occurs.

(also, haven't been able to find a stock 2.03 ROM on here... am I blind/illiterate?)

Latest addition to this problem (first occurred a few minutes ago after the phone began reflashing itself again after the aforementioned problem): Windows began the usual first-time boot customization procedure, and is now giving me an error: Run FILEOP \Windows\Menu_FILEOP_Operator.txt failed.

Is there some sort of corruption or hardware failure going on?

Well, thanks in advance

EDIT: Problem solved by reflashing stock SPL and 2.03 ROM, then flashing what I wanted. The impression i get from the pros here is that I flashed a ROM which wrote to some memory location that shouldn't have been written to.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] anagarika:
I'm looking for info on the earphone wiring.

The Kaiser came with fixed earphone but the mic works very well. I need to replace the earphone with better quality ones but the HTC adaptor I got only has earphone connection and no mic. To make call, I have to uplug it completely.

I'm thinking to cut off the default earphone, solder 3 mm jack to it, and the other end put a 3 mm receptor. This way, I can retain the mic but also free to swap the earphones.

Anyone has idea what the how wiring of the earphone goes? Which part is ground, which is signal? My basic electronics tells me on the earphone ends it doesn't matter, but on the receptor ends it should matter because both ground will be soldered together and if it's wrong, it'll short the phone's port (signal L & R being shorted together). The trick on Tracy&Matt only available for the port connector mod, but not for the earphone (after mic) mod.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Blablaat:
When you strip the cables you will find:

Right and left cable with a core:

The core is the positive, the mantle the negative (ground).

ORRRR Right and left cable with each 2 wires. The negative wires will have the same color (in most cases). When you connect the wrong wires you will not hear left AND right. I doubt that your device will be damaged if you connect the wrong wires, just do not turn up the volume to the max and only check and disconnect if you cannot hear sound from both channels.

Images are just examples.

Try at own risk, good luck!

My English is not perfect, sorry!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] anagarika:
Thank you!

I'll give it a try over weekends .. first got to buy the 3mm port ;)

RHODIUM & TOPAZ got a "themes, applications and software" SUBFORUM & we don't ???

Just noticed today:

Rhodium and Topaz phones HAVE A "THEMES, APPS AND SOFTWARE " SUBFORUM !!!

How is it that we don't have one ??

We have A LOT of content here, and these phones subforums have only a couple threads but they ALREADY HAVE IT !!

We NEED to sparate general questions and discussion from apps / skins / themes: this subforum has become cluttered, the Xperia is a big bang and the ammount of new threads/posts is drawning the real rich content

If I've got it right there isn't any mod that can add or remove a complete topic, this can only be done by an admin.

Hi, guys:

I just did some rtsp capabilities test on G1. Found that G1 didnt support h.264 well through rtsp, but the mpeg4 is fine. The youtube's video played on G1 looks having high quality. Can anybody confirm for me that is the youtube's video encoded by h.264 or mpeg4? And does it transferred through rtsp?

thanks.
[G1 General] darfri:
I think it is some kind of flash-video codec, not the ones you mentioned. Adobe monopoly.
[G1 General] Boeboe:
Youtube uses mpeg4 video for it's HQ streams, flv video for the LQ ones. The G1 gets served an mpeg4 stream regardless of the quality.
[G1 General] Legion09:
Hello, new poster, long time reader. I have searched and haven't found anything exactly pertaining to me...so here it goes...

First observation; When using the instant messengers, windows live, aim and yahoo all sign out randomly. Gtalk stays connected. I've read a post somewhere describing that when you leave a tower and connect to a new tower, disconnects can happen because of how it is setup, including the use of wi-fi and disconnecting from that can cause it to d/c when you switch back to 3g/edge. Well, through my own observation, this is not the case. I have stayed in one spot for most of the day before (my couch) and have had the services disconnect, only using edge. However, Gtalk remains active at all times, even when driving through town. Would anyone be able to explain this to me or help with a solution?

Second observation; A new application came out, Callblocker. This appearantly uses the phones feature to send calls directly to voicemail. I have tried using this feature before on my phone and by sending directly to voicemail, it then procedes to not give any sound. I have read that this is a known issue, however there are people that have used this feature and not had this issue. Is there a fix I don't know of? I currently have a recorded ringtone of silence for these numbers I don't want to take, but that doesn't stop the vibration, nor the inability to use the phone for the duration of the ringing. Help?

Third observation; I have recently been having phone spasms, where certain numbers that have a set ringtone will randomly choose a different ringtone for a different person, (i.e. My wife will get the standard ringtone, my ignores will get my wifes, and a standard will get my ignores...) I found this to be random and non reproduceable. Has anyone heard of this? And if so, is there a fix?

Otherwise this is the best phone I have had and will most likely remain as such! Thank you!
[G1 General] Dr.Jeckyl:
#1 and #2 I'm not familiar with but #3 I'm getting the same behavior. It's annoying.
[G1 General] question.com:
get hello Im if you need aim. the random disconnects are when you go from 3g to egde and back. the stock Im app sucks balls

the g1 has a built in call blocker. never used it, so i wouldn't be able to comment on if it works or not

I have a few custom tones for certain people and i think they reverted back to my default tone once or twice. never knew why. i just gave up on individual tones.
[G1 General] Legion09:
The thing is, I live in Tucson, there is no 3g, only edge, so I don't see how that could happen. Also, why doesn't the Gtalk disconnect as well? only the other three?

otherwise, thanks for the reply....any other takers?
[G1 General] Dharkaron:
If you are using the stock/default apps that came with the phone, the Gtalk one is the only one that uses data to send the msgs. The others all use sms's. Id suggest using one of the third party apps for im's.
[G1 General] Legion09:
That may be so, but why would a brief data disconnect cause any of the services to disconnect, and not the one that uses data? As many have said in regards to why they stop.

Also, a third party app may be an alternative, but it doesn't answer the why...

Also, does anyone know about the second two observations?
[G1 General] Dharkaron:
First off, Google programmed Gtalk, they programmed Android, they programmed the stock IM app. Thus they know how to write the app so that it works properly. They have nothing to do with AIM, Yahoo, MSN, etc. They wrote an app that works to an extent. Since those other IM apps are "competing" with them they have no incentive to "fix" them.

If you want an app that works with AIM or MSN etc then 3rd party is how you will have to go.
[G1 General] Legion09:
I'm sorry, did I offend you in some regard? Google has the source codes for all three of the other instant messenger apps in order to program them for android. So again, your answer doesn't answer the why...

is there a specific instance that they disconnect? Is it really hiccups in the network? if it is hiccups, why do programs that use sms to transmit data intermittently, disconnect when the constant data stream is no longer there.

Now I have tried meebo, it's useless in my opinion, every ten minutes you have to resign in on however many accounts you're using and it may remember your password and user id, but it doesn't care which service you are trying to log into...so it will keep your id and pw in the entry boxes the same, even though you switched from aim to msn.

I have dl'd Hi Msn as well. So far it is the best for msn...pretty interface too.

Now, away from the messengers because there doesn't seem to be a concrete answer besides, "google doesn't care...",;

Does anyone know about the silencing of phone sounds when you press the red phone symbol to cancel an incoming call or when forwarding directly to voicemail? There are programs now that take advantage of these features and people that like them. Am i missing something? How does a program use the forward to voicemail feature, without silencing all sounds? The only "fix" I have found for this is to make a call out, normally voicemail.

Also, so far there are two people who have experienced the random ringtone for assigned ringtone contacts. Any answers? or just a bug? Because this is rather recent.
[General Questions and Answers] pim:
Hi !

I've searched a lot but I can't find a solution to my problem

Do you know a tool that can unlock the screen ? Just by launching an exe.

Why would I need such thing ?

I've made a mortscript to launch my favourite radio once I plug the 3.5 mm jack into my Blackstone. But this script doesn't work when my device is locked (and it's almost always locked).

So I want to add into my scipt an option to know if the phone is locked : lock = RegRead("HKLM", "System\State", "Lock")

and if the phone is locked, I unlock it then the script goes on.

I just need this little .exe to unlock the device.

I hope you can help me

Thanks

This may have been asked I have search but had no luck

I have two questions the first is where are contacts stored on htc and can they be transferred back to Phone if copied to PC

and second I had backed up my phone using sprite but when I wanted to to a restore I found that My Pc has 6.2.3.2324 and the phone has 6.2.3.19 so the phone wont run the file I have tried installing the exe I got on cd to both but they are different and it wont work

Anyone have any ideas I have about 300 contacts, they were not synced to outlook so all I have is a backup and copies of my phones Storage card and device folders on my PC which I had copied
[Touch HD General] fallenczar:

dont know where exactly the file is because i havent used wm in over an year.

and please learn how to search http://www.google.co.in/search?rlz=...hrome&ie=UTF-8&q=contacts+file+windows+mobile
[Touch HD General] Carty:
pim.vol is in the root folder but it is hard to retrieve contacts from that file. If you don't use outlook for backup, atleast you could have had PIM Backup on your pocketpc.

IMO, Sprite backup sucks, SPB is the best, check out my guide on Backing up your pocketpc

Regards,

Carty..
[Touch HD General] ozmoran:
Thanks to both of you for your help I did a search on google without any luck maybe I didnt ask the right question

And I do usually use outlook to backup but something went wrong with my sync with outlook which is why I lost all my contacts in the first place

Sprite may not be as good as others however I contacted there help on there website any they were excellant very responsive and helpful (incase anyone wants to know)

Anyway thanks again for your help
[Touch HD General] fallenczar:
just replace the backup copy of pim.vol with the pim.vol that is currently there (you will require total commander or resco file explorer to do this) soft reset and you'll get back all your PIM (Contacts, Calender etc) data back.
