Hello. I consider my self as noobie in WM. I need you guys' help!

I will be getting xperia x1 soon. And i want to download the fake WM6.5 if Microsoft does not support upgrading for my device. I want to hear from you guys about what should i expect when i download WM6.5. Step by step would be awesome! thank you all and go XDA!

*Updated*

Also, is it possible to run SPB mobile shell 3 on one of the xperia's panel? or if i download it, do i only have a choice of running the entire SPB? i like how xperia let you have different pannels, and i don't want to use only SPB. thanks.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msc125:
not sure what you mean by 'fake 6.5'?

do you mean a 6.5 rom? that is; do you want to convert your operating system to 6.5? if so, you need to flash a rom based on wm6.5. a good place to start is here:

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=471

read the stickies, especially on how to back up your rom, do Hard-SPL, and how to update your rom. backup your data first!! also check out the 'XDA-Wiki' (link at top of page) if you are unsure of any terms used

it is possible to run MobileShell 3 as a panel, see here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=541280

i don't use mobile shell as a panel like in the link above, and i can still use my other panels. mobile shell 3 is just a 'front-end' for the device. you can still run the the panels system with mobile shell, just your today screen will be mobileshell

hope that helps

Hi folks - couple newbie questions on the 6.5 ROM (running Jack Lite - love it)

- How do you customize what appears on the today screen (i have the default WM6.5 scrolling words/icons - pictures/musc/voicemail/text etc. I would like to blow away everything other then email/calendar?

- How do I get MS Voicecommand to work through the bluetooth headset? Only works through speaker phone. On my old q9 i was able to speak to the phone via headset

- how do you customize how applications close (whether X closes, or exits etc) and the behaviour of where you are taken to when you close an app? Right now

If i can fix the above i would be a happy camper!

Hello,

I tried searching for a solution on google and here, but to no avail. I apologize if I have missed any solutions that may have already been posted.

I used itje's Blackstone Dialer and it installs perfectly and runs, but whenever i do a soft reset, it doesn't show/work anymore. Is there anyway to set it up as default when my X1 starts up or to make it work, because i find the touch dialer much more elegant than the default dialer that the X1 comes with. Thanks.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msc125:
seems strange, did you install to storage card? i'm only guessing that it could be a problem

otherwise, in the 'advanced config' program, there is an option that relates to the dialer skin, maybe check that out?

sorry can't give you a definitve answer, maybe someone else can
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nycdemons:
No i installed to the Device. I'll try the "advanced config" option and see what happens and report back.

can some one help me with updating to window mobile 6.5 i have 6.1 right now wat do i have to do to update it to 6.5?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msc125:
to update to 6.5 you need to flash a cooked rom. there are plenty of 6.5 roms in the rom development forum, read the stickies for instructions on how to flash.

if you want an official update, you'll have to wait for the official release and hope SE support the upgrade for the xperia!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msc125:
check in the rom thread to see if the rom includes panels or not.

best thing to do would be to install a 'stock' or basic 6.5 rom (i recommend Christians, or WildChilds), this would give you wm6.5 with panels. you can then install tf3d as a cab (either itje's or darran clarke's) and assign it to a panel. there are threads on how to do this, check it out by doing a search

Pretty basic question here, I suppose:

Thanks a lot.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stormlv:
@kurazz

The following will stand for pretty much any application, not just java games.

The easiest way is to launch File Explorer (or Resco Explorer/Total Commander) and go in the Windows folder (on your internal storage - not your Storage card), find the Start Menu folder, then Programs, and all you need to do is just move the necessary icons in the Games subfolder.

Windows>Start Menu>Programs

Ok, lets try this out. Hi I'm new here, just got my X1 in Canada, under Rogers.

A few questions that I didn't quite find addressed in the forum.

1. Should I update my ROM? What are the benefits? How do I check my current ROM version?

2. Should I upgrade to windows mobile 6.5? I have 6.1, and am I little frustrated by some of the ways this OS's gui functions.

(Looked around some more, I'm guessing the ROM and OS are tied together, the two are paired, is this correct?)

3. I've noticed there are apps that supposedly speed up your phone. What are they? Which one(s) is/are the best? Should I install these with a later ROM or WinMo build?

4. What is HardSPL, I see a lot of info about it. (Answered my own question with thread http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=SPL Questions?)

5. What other things should I consider for my phone?

X1 - secod day, few questions

Hello Everyone!!!

I am following xda forum for sometime now. You guys were one of the reasons I have moved from symbian based devices (A1000, P900, N80, N95) to my first WM device.

It is my second day using X1 and I have few questions (before you all start shouting - I have tried search - no luck :-( ).

1. One of the reasons I wanted something other than my last device (N95) was the need to access files stored on my laptop, home desktop and work desktop from my phone.

Those computers are running Windows XP and Vista HP and are sharing some of the folders with documents. I thought that once I will set up Wi-Fi connection on my X1 I will simply see other PC's on my LAN and will be able to access shared resources. It seems it is not the case.

1a. If there is a positive solution to point 1 is there a way to access one of my desktops when we (desktop and X1) are not on the same network (example: I am visiting customer and I need to get access to one of Word files stored on work desktop - PC is on obviously).

2. Most of the time I am within a range of a Wi-Fi network. Can this type of connection be set as a default for all programs needing an internet access (and only if no Wi-Fi network is available than connection goes through GSM - this was not a problem with N95).

3. Is there a calendar (I do not have a full Office with MS Outlook on any of my PC's) and/or e-mail client that I could have Installed both on my PC and WM device to avoid mess. Let's say I enter an event in calendar on my PC, it would be great if phone could update (same in reverse).

4. Any one is using MS Live Mesh service on your X1? It was ok between PC's but it did not work great with N95. Should I stick to this or is there something more efficient for WM?

5. Is there any way (without having MS Outlook) to have one "Contacts" folder on all my devices (similar situation to calendar). It works fine over Live Mesh - contacts updates fine between laptop and desktops... but I do not know how and if I can do this to X1 contact list.

6. Can Windows Live calendar be the one i was thinking in point 3 (got a windowslive account and I saw and option windows live for mobiles... will I get access to Skydrive with this?).

7. Are there any essentials that I should install on my X1? At the moment it is as it came from factory - there is probably few useful programs that you all have as standard on your X1's.

I hope I have not ask stupid questions (i did try to search and google)?

Ale the best and thanks for help!!!!

PS. Will we all (owners of X1) get upgrade to WM 6.5 (it seems to be more user friendly)?

Toady Panel Problems

Hi,

this is my first post of many to come.

I recently just my hand on a xperia and have since been installing panels, but since trying to install SPB 3 the today panel has stopped working. the panel will either become unresponsive and it has changed to a turquoise blue background. sometime the panel wont render, and becomes out of focus(if you know what i mean). so i un-installed the SPB 3 and the today panel was still the same. :(

i then downloaded the TF3D HD beta 3 cab and installed that hoping it would take over the today panel. but that has failed to work. :mad::mad:a message on the phone indicated that it was installed correctly but the panel is nowhere to be seen.

i would just like to return to the today panel if possible.

please, any help would be grateful.

I see. It has happened to me in the past, usually conflicting software is the cause of this. Uninstall all recent software, especially apps that use today plu-ins and try to manually remove any folders left behind after the uninstall.

The today screen is not a panel that you can re-install, it's an integral part of WinMo.

I suspect that you will have to hard reset it in the end. It looks like one (or more) of the soft you have installed has messed up some driers. Hard resetting will fix it for sure.

X1a flashed with X1i ROM Radio Band Question

I flashed an X1a with a 6.5 ROM. The new ROM is WM6.5 and works great. Unfortunately the UMTS850 band does not show up as an available UMTS band and the device identity thinks it is an X1i.

Reflashing back to the stock ROM does not change the radio protocol, just the OS. I admit it, I missed the step about backing up my stock ROM and used a stock X1a ROM from this site. That did not change the Radio Protocol though.

Radio: 1.14.25.55

Protocol: 52.65.25.34U

Since flashing different radio's does not seem to change the protocol so that the UMTS850 and 2100 bands show, is there a way to update the radio to let the X1a take advantage of all supported bands?
