[XPERIA X1 General] Bikram:
Hi,

I am a total newbie and so have no idea what is spl, hard reset or ROM backup methods. But I tried many new softwarez on my phone and as a result they all screwed up my phone. I tried a new panel manager it totally screwed up the system. I uninstalled it and now I cann't change panels any more, when I press the X button it says Xpanel exe missing. Then I thought I will try spb shell 3.0 I installed it and it screwed up my contacts somehow. I uninstalled it too.

And now my phone sucks!!

I am trying to learn how to BackUp rom before I try someone elses ROM. Even though its is pretty complecated which one should I try? I was thinking of 6.5 but there are so many of them dont even know which one is the right one.

Anyway in the mean time that I learn, I was wondering if somebody knows how I can get my phone Xpanel back at least?

Thanks in advance

Thanks again.

Hi, is it possible to install any software to support these earphones? I tried it with several phones, seems like Nokia and Xperia dont support it while Samsung does.

I have done some research and it is due to the additional mic channel that cause the problem. It is not like it is totally not working, just that it sound like the music lost layers...

anybody has any experience to this?

Thanks!
[XPERIA X1 General] Nocturnal310:
Any specific reason why u wanna use one of the worlds crappiest earphones?
[XPERIA X1 General] oTToToTenTanz:
LOL as if they would be crappy...haha.

Hmm, when you try to listen to music with XPERIA Headphones and iPod the same thing happens: it sounds like the music lost layers. But when you push the "speak" button it is okay. I did not try the new headphones with the XPERIA so I can't help you for now but I'll have a look later on.
[XPERIA X1 General] rotsu:
I dont think this is a software issue.

Iphone's head set jacks is a little different from any head set iv seen.
[XPERIA X1 General] Firefall!:
They are BULL****.
[XPERIA X1 General] shithead:
Nah

I think Apple's Headset is technically the same as the X1 headset

It should work.

I said

should

.

You should try it for yourself
[XPERIA X1 General] zeroboi:
Thanks for the replies.

haha, no, i bought the new dual driver version for my ipod.

i came from Crossroads Bijous, i must say they are quite good, better compared to the stock Xperia's and even some sony's dynamic drivers earphones.

Yes! when you press down the mic button, it sounds ok again...

if its a hardware issue, then its really quite a waste..
[XPERIA X1 General] Rudegar:
the real problem is that there is no real std for mini jack with mic too

every company can do it as they see fit

no std for the 3th ring

no std for it's placement

or it's width

so it's always pretty much hit or miss
[XPERIA X1 General] zeroboi:
hi guys, think i solved it!

by using the headphones with the xperia adapter, it actually sounds normal. but i must say theres a good deal of background hiss... is this xperia's problem?

not sure if the mic works... cos the adapter comes with mic too...
[XPERIA X1 General] Rudegar:
it don't and the reason you don't have any issues is that

the adapter don't carry the 3 ring for mic at all so it don't interfear
[XPERIA X1 General] Nocturnal310:
i think its because of lack of impedance matching.

u ll have to get an impedance adapter to reduce that background hiss.

costs like $2 to $10..

looks like this:
[XPERIA X1 General] zeroboi:
oic.. guess i would pop by some hardware store real soon... been super busy with exams

Thanks for the advice and assistance guys!

Is it possible for anyone to use the updated Da_G kitchen to make an updated Clean rom?

I have been trying to do it on my own, but for some reason I cannot get it to work. I'm not very good with this stuff and I know that if I make a mistake I will end up with a messed up phone.

So please please pretty please, will someone update the Da_G clean rom?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
If the Da_G 'leaked' ROM is still not satisfactory, have a look at these threads:

[TUT] Sous-Chef's Guide to Da_G's Simple Kitchen

Da_G's simple ROM Kitchen

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=471288

If you're having issues after that, don't hesitate to post a clear description of your problem in the Da_G's simple ROM Kitchen thread. Most of the chefs that follow the thread usually try to offer some insight.

HTH,
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] jjwoznia:
Yeah, the reason I asked for help is I'm not really good with stuff like that. And I can't be running the risk of bricking my phone. Hence me asking for someone to cook a rom up. And I'd rather not use the testing rom.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
I'll assume you have already SPL'ed your phone with Olipro/OliNex HardSPL'ed.

Here's what I'd suggest;

Go through the

[TUT] Sous-Chef's Guide to Da_G's Simple Kitchen

guide. In a nutshell, the guide walks you through the entire process using an official HTC 5.05.405.1 ROM.

At the end of the guide, you will have a flashable end product that you can flash to your device. Since your HardSPL'ed, you will be able to recover in the event of a problem since all you are flashing is the ROM part -

not

the SPL, Radio, or Splash screen. Recovery would be a matter of flash a different cooked ROM or the .NBH file from the official HTC 5.05.405.1 ROM that you downloaded.

Once you feel comfortable with that, download

Da_G's Simple ROM Kitchen

(21402, Apr). It contains a good selection of packages that many of the Chefs use at the moment - i.e. they work. ;-)

Then if you have questions, post in the Da_G Kitchen thread - not this one.

HTH,
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] X2D:
Download his 6.5 kitchen and follow the directions on his thread and you're good to go. Load the notsolitefuze, make sure if you have a CDMA phone you do none of this or the above lol.
[G1 General] Henchman:
Wow. I can't believe how incredibly bad WiFi is on the Sapphire update.

It keeps dropping connections on places I never had a problem, and won't reconnect by itself.

Anyone else noticing this?
[G1 General] andonnguyen:
download WiFi-Lock from the marketplace (it has the green icon), and it'll stay connected =]

I was having the same problem too.
[G1 General] pagubg:
I have no problems with wi-fi. Rooted haykuro 5.0.1Gr3 build.
[G1 General] ei8htohms:
WiFi lock is built in to Haykuro's builds

Both the G and H builds have an option under Settings - Wireless Controls - Wi-Fi Settings - (press Menu button) - Advanced for Wi-Fi sleep policy. If you set it to "Never" you're doing the same thing WiFi Lock does.
[G1 General] johnnyxhuynh:
Brilliant!
[G1 General] Lloir:
no henchman is right also the siginal of the WIFI on the phone is crap with the H builds...used to get an awesome siginal around my house now it's 1 bar if that :/
[G1 General] KPeriod:
Worked fine for me on G builds.
[G1 General] kathi17:
I haven't had any problems on 5.0.2H. I am using DD-WRT on my Linksys router.
[G1 General] Henchman:
well, I reflashed back to RC33 and it's radio, and the problems dissapeared.
[G1 General] loomism2:
Listen to him. The options for wifi connections have changed. By default it is set to drop wifi connections when the screen goes off. You have to do what he said in the menu to set it so it doesn't drop the wifi connection. There is nothing wrong with the new builds!
[G1 General] Henchman:
I found that setting within 2 minutes, when I was troubleshooting the wifi problems.

Made no difference.
[G1 General] mannyb:
Wifi is more or less useless for me with the JFv1.50 ADP1.5 ROM. It'll connect just fine, good speeds, good signal strength.. but it will hang all the time. I'll still have the wifi notification icon showing full bars, but the connection is dead. Only solution is to disable/enable wifi to get it working again, which only takes about 10 seconds using Toggle Settings, but that too gets tiresome after a while.

It's worth mentioning that I had no problems at all with earlier ROMs, like ADP1.0, JFv1.43 ADP1.1 and JFv1.43 ADP1.1H. It all started with the 1.5 update. Unfortunately the Wifi Fixer app (neither the new nor the old one) does not work either. Wifi Lock does nothing that's not already built-in to 1.5 (keeping wifi active active when screen shuts off).

Something's funky with the new radio.
[G1 General] johnowa636:
Wi-fi problems.

I too have been having the wi-fi blues. No issues with prior builds. As I moved up to JFv1.50ADP1 with new radio, I started having isses. When I start wifi with toggle it will just show icon with no signal, I have to access the menu before the "connecting, obtaining IP" prompt starts. I have also noticed low signal with a Linksys wireless N 1 room away, before full signal and now two bars. Hope there will be fix soon, maybe a new radio update.
[G1 General] tulamidan:
Posted in my own thread but didn't get feedback:

First: I guess you did the radioUpdate (to be found on haykuros webite?) Since then even my reception got a lot better.

I have wifi turned on all times but it goes to sleep while standby and it works more or less fine:

The problem is, that sometimes it doesn't reconnect when I turn the screen back on.

When I go to settings I find it in the state: "connection unsuccessful, please try again" and I have to click it before it tries again. That is annoying is there no way around it?
[Touch HD General] datzent83:
On my old HTC Touch Diamond I used to have sentence suggestion (i.e. I type in call... and it would suggest call me later). Does anyone know how to make that work on HTC Touch HD?
[G1 Android Development] GoldenCyn:
MUST HAVE ROOT ACCESS!!

You can do this on your phone using Terminal Emulator

1. type "su" to turn $ into # (Superuser Whitelist will ask for root access; grant it)

2. Type 'cd data/app-private'.

3. Get a list of all the applications by typing 'ls'.

4. Pick which file you want to copy and type 'cp your_file_name.apk /sdcard/ e.g. 'cp com.android.musicplayer.apk /sdcard/'

5. Copy the .apk file off your memory card.

You can also do this using ADB, just replace step one with "adb shell" in your command prompt, and follow the rest of the steps
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
Why are you making it easier for people to pirate applications?
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
so all copyright law violations aside you have failed to mention the fact that the file can no longer be used on a G1 or any other file structure requiring proper permissions

nevertheless .. copying of these protected apps off the G1 is most definitely illegal .. i would not recommend testing this out

Carrier: Alltel

SPL: nueSPL 2.47

RADIO: 3.42.50

ROM: Titan Reloaded 1.3.4
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Bunsen Honeydew:
1. Run the DCD Alltel carrier cab.

2. Run the Alltel Arcsoft cab that is around.

3. Soft reset.

That works for me, but I am running 1.3
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] talk2nate:
Hey - just wanted to say that on both my Vogue and Titan MMS on Alltel only worked with Arcsoft 3.0 or lower. I have a Touch Pro as well and Arcsoft 5.xx works on it just fine.

But I always run my Arcsoft 3 or lower and then the Alltel DCD carrier cab. Poof fixed. Enjoy

PS - just a side note Alltel now supports email to mms. i.e. - email me a pic/file to my phone - 12225559999@mms.alltel.net - sends file, subject, and body message to all MMS capiable Alltel phones. As of 4/20/09.

I need to set up the data service between Diamond and Tomtom 720. I am using a Sprint CDMA Diamond with stock rom. The Tomtom has installed the latest update.

I downloaded some cab to enable the bluetooth DUN. But I am not sure if it works. Is there any way I can tell?

The Tomtom can find Dimond has wireless data. I tried the following as manual set up in Tomtom. But they all failed.

Access point name: blank or Sprint PCS or Sprint PCS Vision

User name: blank or XXXX@sprintpcs.com (got it from sprint)

Password: blank or XXXXXXX (got it from sprint)

Dial number: #777

Any suggestion? Thanks a lot.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] XERO_Racer:
hey guys, i have a question for everyone own the FUZE or Touch Pro, but in this case im focusing on the FUZE, now starting all week ill be at school for like 5 to 6 hours BUT ill be connected to MSN Messenger, and possibly Yahoo messenger through out the day and itll go between 3G and EDGE, now i have Advanced Config Tool, if i ENABLE ALL options under Power Management, will my FUZE survive through out until i get home?? or is it gonna be the same if i didnt tweak the power management?? plz tell me asap, thanks alot! :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mputtr:
I highly doubt it.

if you are connected to the network at all times for 5-6 hours + phone use and everything else, you should be on your last leg by around hour 5. which would mean you woul probably be dead on battery by the 4th hour at school.

You also probably should be using your school's public computers to do your IMing. Using msn msnger or yahoo is quite pointless if you get caught in class and even if i don't know how much of a social butterfly you are, i highly doubt you will be recieving so many IMs that you'll need to have it on at all times. save your batteries for more useful stuff in case of emergencies.

just my 2cents.

oh, and if you do use the fuze's default messenger program, it'll charge your IMs as SMS messages. so i suggest you download's microsoft or yahoo's own mobile messenger or a 3rd party client for winmo unless... you have unlimited texting then you're all good.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] XERO_Racer:
ok soo ure saying that the tweak would be pointless then?

oh and ya like my teachers dont care if we txt and all that LOL as long as we finish our work which i do and i always get them right :D but thnx for the tip though, how bout if i listen to stream internet radio same situation i believe?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ReznikAkime:
If you're keeping a steady data connection which you will be with anything you're wanting to do at the moment, it won't last. At all. You'd be lucky to get five hours out of it. Max i've got while I was playing with it all day was about five hours.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] freekquency:
The thing thats gonna make your battery NOT last 5 or 4 hours as someone said previously, is gonna be because you switch from 3g to E and back you said.

If your phone is searching for signal (at all) it will drain really quick.

Maybe you can shut off the 3g if E is good enough for texting. (at least i belive you can do that)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] whatthefudgsicle:
battery power...

the phone uses alot of energy while searching for towers but if u really want to not worry just get one of those extra battery packs which have a longer duration and minimally use ur screen [or adjust backlight to a low setting because that counts alot]
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] lbhocky19:
if u tweak ur comm manager to allow 3g option then turn it off just use edge you might make it
[Windows Mobile Themes] m.carroll:
A really simple monochromatic skin for Windows Mobile (Phone) 6.5, cab's fully uninstallable. Works with VGA/WVGA and QVGA/WQVGA, just download the correct resolution (without the W). Enjoy.

While I do realize that both versions could be installed from one Cab, I've chosen not to do this to avoid cluttering devices (especially those with small internal storage) with unnecessary files which are not fit for their resolution. My theme releases will be 2 separate cabs (maybe 3 if I ever figure out this square thing...).

Changelog:

May 7, 2009 - Fixed bubble/toast bug in (W)QVGA version and updated installers hardcoded to device (just to bypass nag in installation).

Too bad nobody remembers 'bout square screens (320x320) of Treo and i780 :(
[Windows Mobile Themes] m.carroll:
Square QVGA should work just fine seeing as 320x320 on the TreoPro and the i780 are still both 192 DPI, save for the background. I could resize the background and cab up a square one for you if you'd like, but try the QVGA one first and let me know if it works.

EDIT: What's the DPI for the Square 320x320 devices? I'd love to get you a theme if you can get me the resources from a working Classic Blue theme...

EDIT2: Thanks to bnm7bnm, I've found an issue with the QVGA cab, in that if you click on the signal strength indicator, battery icon, any of the top icons looking for a status pop-up window, it shows the old-style notifications, instead of WM6.5-skinned style. Working on a fix and will update when available.

Speaking of bugs, anyone (AdamNimrod) having the rainbow effect: can you try and take a screenshot with a program like CapSure or something similar and see if the rainbow effect still shows up. I don't really know what your talking about, but the screenshot would help, and also identify if its an actual rendering issue or an optical illusion.

PS: I'm working on a Glossy Black theme roughly using a glossing effect similar to Windows 7, but trying to keep it classy and not look like it's "trying too hard". Its coming down the pipe, but I just got out of finals at the University of Florida, and start an internship soon, so it'll be here when it gets here. :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] _TB_TB_:
For WM6.5 square screeners there is only 96dpi

As a graphic designer, software developer, and a hardware engineer (not always in that order :p), I hate having things released that don't work / look right (that's what I get for not properly testing it... :D), so I wanted to try and work out all the kinks now that I had time. Happy to contribute!

For anyone interested in developing their own theme, I've got a pretty good set of "Base" files for (W)VGA and (W)QVGA that end up with a perfectly working theme in both resolutions. I don't want MS coming after me for copyright stuff (posting their images), nor step on anyone's toes here, but if you're interested in these, PM me and we'll see what we can do.

I hope to see what you guys can cook up, and hope to release more, myself, in the future.

Is it possible via just themes to invert the rest of the OS?

reboot the device, or switch to another theme (classic blue, for example). Let it fully apply, and then switch back to PureBlack. It'll work.
