Is there a problem with Google Maps or Windows Live Search?

You can't beat the price (free), and they get the job done.

I prefer Windows Live because I can speak my destination.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] faria:
... except to people that do not have an unlimited data plan!:eek:

i also i dont belive that those also do turn-by-turn navigation...but i could be wrong.:)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] harolds:
They both have turn by turn navigation.

Why would you own such a phone without unlimited data plan?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] faria:
i stand corrected.

because some carriers do no offer it , like mine, and the ones that do at least where i m want something stupid like £80 per month contract.

at the moment i pay £10 for 100mb.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] extracrunchie:
where im from we dont have unlimited data plan and even so the data plan is really expensive.......so i bought the phoen cuz it has a internal gps antenna and if have maps loaded on the phone already it will be free...........that is why i bought this phone :) for that and many reasons

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bedlam_au:
I upgraded to R3A last week and so far everything's gone smoothly.

The only thing that's bugging me is that the network icon (H) spends most of its time greyed out (see screenshot). I only ever saw it in that state briefly in previous firmware.

It doesn't seem to affect connection or call quality. It's not indicative of a bad signal, as it'll still go back to 2.5G when 3G is lacking. The resulting G will usually be grey as well.

Presumably it means something's less than optimal, but I can't find any info about it anywhere.

Clues anybody?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bharat4ever:
Are you sure you are able to connect to a data connection, for web browsing etc? Because the last time this happened to me, i was not able to connect, and had to do a hard reset to get it fixed.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bedlam_au:
Data connection works fine. There appears to be no issue with functionality of anything.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xUniversal:
The set of "custom" status icons (colored ones) doesn't contain icon for HSDPA (or something like this, dataconnection available in you location) so it is shown as standard icon (only black&white). I bet if you have only EDGE or GPRS available, there will be the same icon as the others are.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marlitolimpin:
it should mean that data connection is unavailable at the moment (because it can get back in a later time) or something is wrong with your data connection (that is why we have sometimes to reset the phone to make it work back).
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jorgefausto:
Guys,

I have a Xperia for almost one month, and last night it suddenly stopped to be connected with the network. I tried to connect manually, and it worked, but the calls still couldn't be done! One hour later, the same situation started again and my phone can not connect to the network.

I don't know what to do anymore, I have already hard reset the phone, and nothing happened!!

Help me!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamabodo:
I get exactly the same thing, running Jacks latest lite-ROM, based on the R3A. Connection icons are greyed out, but I still have an excellent data connection.

What's more is that after a fairly long call, the phone usually looks like it's in flight mode. However, if I try calling myself from my second phone it works just fine, and I can recieve sms-es. But, I cannot send texts or call out, since the phone thinks it's cell-module is turned off. This always corrects itself after a soft reset, and usually passes by itself after about ten minutes. But the connection icons stay greyed out.

If I try to turn the phone-module back on, nothing happens.

Weird, innit?

this rom is very light and very fast and very stable. This rom is meant for people who want a simple rom to add onto and customize, those people who want a no frills rom, or anyone who just needs a reliable rom to use. I have tested the packages on other versions for months and have tested this version extensively over the past few days, you should find no problems whatsoever but if you do lemme know.

it starts up in less than a minute and sits idle at around 25%.

[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] imblfmstr:
Dear all

I have bought OPAL (Touch Viva) in India

It came with a Idea cellular Sim connection

and the splash sceen shows cellular operator's Logo...

But the shopkeeper gave it unlocked to all networks...

is it safe to flash 6.5 ROM on that...

Senior members please help...

Earlier I was using Gene with 6.5 running on it very fine

waiting for response

Thanks
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] michael.satish:
there won't be any problem in flashing 6.5.

I'm running 6.5V13 in my idea Htc viva mobile for a very long time now. After you flash it, the idea operater logo disappears or to be precise, it will be deleted.

If you fancy the Idea start screen, dont flash 6.5. Apart from that, if you flah 6.5, the mobile will be a delight to use and please stick with V13, it is as far the best version of 6.5.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] imblfmstr:
Thanks Satish

Thanks alot Satish....

U gave me sigh of relief...

Now I will update my VIVA and will also post some new ROMs

Get the V13 from this Link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=504788

i'm using the one which is posted in the aforementioned link. Don't forget the hard spl before you flash the rom. I reckon you will have some idea about that. Anyways just for the sake of caution, don't forget that. And i'm from Mumbai.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] imblfmstr:

Although I have done it for Gene....but quite not sure for OPAL

can u pls give me a consolidated guide and the tools....

If you can PM me ur mobile no. that would be nice of you

Hoping for a helping hand

Thanks for reply
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] michael.satish:
Mate, it's very simple.

Just download the Hard-Spl from this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=446446 and follow the steps mentioned in the link. Once you've done that.

Just go to my previous post and go to that link which includes the 6.5 V13. Download that and install it in the same way as the Hard-Spl. Within 10 min, you can complete everything and start using 6.5.

Its not that complicated, just try it.

[Sable] GuestX00823:
Does your ipaq 600 series stops charging when the unit becomes hot from "over" use.

I was using wifi for about an hour doing stuff and suddenly it stops charging using the charger. I thought the charger broke so i tried the PC's USB but same deal, won't recharge battery (LED light did not light up)

I shutdown the ppc let it cool off then it works again (recharging).

Has this ever happened to you?
[Sable] keyx:
no I haven't been let my ipaq be hot enough to have that happen. But then i guess it is a protective measure, you don't want your ipaq explode when charging anyway lol
[Sable] thebranded:
how hot was your ipaq?

it has an operating temp of -10 to 55° C

i would assume all functions of the ipaq will stil work while within this range, so unless your ipaq was hotter than 55c it should still charge.

Remove the cover and see if the battary feels hot? maybe your battary is no good? (which would also explain your other posts of short battary life)
[Sable] fatt64:
yes i have the same problem on my 912. Seems to be a good feature from HP when the device battery became so hot, it will suspend the internet connection and charging activities. But after you let it cool for about 10 minutes, it will recharge itself automatically.
[Sable] GuestX00823:
I cant say exactly how hot it was since i don't have a device to measure exactly how hot it is.

But it gets hot enough so that you can't concentrate on what your doing (especially when reading something)

I get worried that it can get hot enough to make that other components in the device breakdown faster than it's supposed to.

I have never had a device that gets this hot from use. I guess HP knew from the beginning their device will get this hot from just normal use.

I'm asking for a battery replacement from HP. Some users here have reported improvements from using a different battery not released by HP.

I gather both Seidio (sp?) and HTC had extended life batteries for the original TP, and Seidio had one large enough to warrant a new back cover. Based on Pocketnow's full review, I'm betting the standard battery isn't going to satisfy me.

Does anyone remember how long until those batteries came out for the TP after it launched, or have a theory about how long until they exist for the TP2?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rb14:
No idea about that, but I can tell you the battery life is ace so far. And I mean ace.

I got the phone Saturday morning, been playing with it loads (the phone), making or receiving two hours of calls, loads of texting, photos, a bit of GPS, some tinterwebbing, push email the lot. It's been off overnight, but with all that, it's now Monday lunchtime and I've two bars of battery left on the Power Management screen and one bar showing on the title bar.

Extended battery schmextended battery. Don't want or need one.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] quarintus:
Strange.. There are many reviews that say the battery life is very short. (for example pocketnow.com).

I hope you are right.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nicelad_uk:
I agree battery life is so much better than the blackstone I had. Still 65% charged and had it on a day and a half now using it a lot.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pepeto2001:
I was also reading the pocketnow review about poor battery life, I hope battery life will be increased because I HATE the poor performance of my Kaiser device!. Charging it EVERY DAY es horrible!

You cannot get the phone in the morning and think.... "if I use gps during 20 minutes, maybe I cannot go home without charging the battery this night.." isn't it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] magius00:
Mines been great but then again i didn't have a problem with using my Tytn II. For the device it is with a huge screen and all the features it is brilliant but if your going to be running gps blue tooth wifi checking 7 e-mail accounts at ~30 secs and having all the web pages you can pushed to you then yes the battery life will be terrible.

My manager at work is one of the worse for this ... it has the features so i will use them is his argument... mine is it also provides an off button for them use that as well.

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised overall with the battery life but if your going to be using it heavily then expect it not to last you a week
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fortunz:
I probably would have wanted an extended life battery even if no one thought that the battery was poorly suited to the device. That's just me. The fact that it is coming up short for some almost certainly means I'll be looking into it.

People have different usage patterns and tolerances, so I'm not surprised 1500mah is enough for some. When someone puts out a 2000mah battery, I'm still gonna be like "Really? Only 2000?"
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] galaxys:
Seidio ussually launches accessories fairly fast when a new device hit's the streets...so keep your eyes open. Do you have the TP2 yet?

Also, check Ebay for accessories like extended batteries...

Myself, I have never needed one.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fortunz:
I don't have it yet. And I won't really need the extended life battery from day 1--but as far as accessory purchases go, like pouches and cases, I'd like to know what battery I'm going to get and if it will increase the TP2's girth fairly early on.

Although I've purchased PDA batteries from ebay before, including from chinese companies selling their, I'm wary of doing so with the TP2. I'd rather buy the best this time around from a company with a reputation to protect. I aim to own my TP2 for LONG time so I won't take the kinds of chances I've taken with lessor hardware in the past.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] galaxys:
Sounds like a plan...they will start to appear in the "Rhodium accessories" as soon as a member gets wind of it...

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] poppinpengawen:
I installed the ATW keyboard fix that's supposed to increase the hardware keyboard lag on my tilt. I've always had the keyboard fix that I found in the sticky in the kaiser software thread, but it didn't work as well as it had with the other ROMs I've used. so I uninstalled it and tried the ATW fix. but now the symbols are all mixed up. the / and ! and such are not in their rightful places, but rather they are assigned to the keys they are assigned to on an actual PC. it's like this:

! = fn + 1

@ = fn + 2

# = fn + 3

$ = fn +4

and so on. the / and some other symbols aren't even assigned to any button on the keyboard, so I have to press fn + ok to bring up the symbol screen.

does anyone know of any keyboard fix that could fix this? or any registry hacks? (with the accompanying detailed direction of what exactly to edit)

I've already tried the keyboard fix that should be installed after flashing a custom ROM. oh, and my sig is wrong, I'm using mbarvian's solace 3.1 ROM.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] poppinpengawen:
oh and a hard reset didn't fix it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] poppinpengawen:
ok after 2 hard resets and two reflashes it's back to normal. I just have to leave off the keyboard speed increase cab.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Lyian:
Anyone know if they will be releasing an unlocked version for the US carriers? I would get the European version myself, as 3g isn't a big deal for me, but what gives me concern is the Wall charger doesn't include a US plug. Im sure this is a small deal considering i could proly just buy a standard HTC charger, but im just curious if they will be having an unlocked that will both include the US charger, and work on US 3g networks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Lyian:
no word yet hua?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jonnyp4l:
Why do you think the European model won't work on U.S. 3G networks?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jonnyp4l:
European 3G I believe works on the 1900 MHz band (supported by the Touch Pro 2). U.S. 3G operates on the 850 MHz band (also supported by the Touch Pro 2). By technical standards, this should work fine in the U.S. on the 3G band.

As far as the charger goes, yes, that is a concern. But I don't doubt that somewhere in your house you've got a miniUSB charger lying around. If not, your local Wal-Mart/Target/Radio-Shack/Best Buy will have a million of them.
