This is a VERY common request that most likely no one will answer for you. You should use the search feature and MMS ATT Dash you should find what your looking for it me almost 5 months to get MMS to work. first for what ever reason it does not work instantly. I had just given up and then 2weeks later I got a picture text. I was soooo happy, but I still could not send a picture text 10 days later I was able to send picture text. If you have AT&T unlimeted texting plan make sure you are on the the edge because my Dash is always switching to GPRS. If you send pictures audio, video via texting, make sure the E is showing in the tool bar cause if you have a G you will be charged for the message. Without seaeching on my Dash to verify I'm sure this is the setup I'm currently using.

This is an important thread, Ive added tags so people can find it easier when searching, If anybody else can add some more tags that would be cool. I plan on swithing to ATT after I move and will probly come back here to use this. :D

[Mogul, XV6800 General] Soundy106:
Yes, that's right, I dropped my P4000 into my frappuccino this afternoon... *sigh*. Rinsed it off as quickly as possible (nice clean Vancouver water, extremely soft) and put it in the sun to dry off. First time I tried to power it up, I got a vibe and a quick blink of the screen, then nothing... now when I put the battery in and power it up, I get the vibe and power light, but nothing more.

So, wondering if anyone has any experience disassembling these things that could offer some advice/tips/steps/docs/etc.?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] paintballinfl:
Try blowing it off with a hairdryer then leave it in a bag of rice overnight, I've heard that helps.

[Off-topic] netnerd:
before i got my Acer F900, i dont like it that much since it' the bigger size then HTC HD or iphone. but after i got the phone, i dont notice that much different in size. haha

there is no d-pad on the phone, u press the volume + and - to go up and down. i still havnt figure out how to go left or right yet.

there is a green led blinking when the phone is on which i like, that u dont see that often on htc phones anymore? haha

i believer Acer tweaks (software) is better then HTC!

their task manger show how many Free Ram is avail, i guess you need it since phone only got 128ram. but i havnt encounter any problems with only 128ram.

their flash rom is kinda low, only 256meg, i always run out of storage if i want to install everything to internal storage (i never have this problem with Sony X1, or diamond, or fuses) but you can install most programs to microSD.

when phone is "device locked" on today screen, you press screen to wake up to check clock, phone goes back to sleep in 5 seconds (which is nice) to save battery.

on phone dialer, there is a "blacklight off" option for 5, 10, 15, 30 seconds, never. on my sony X1 with custom rom, phone dialer stay ON forever unless i press "power" to turn off blacklight.

PRO: big screen 3.8" WVGA 800x480!

ATT 850 and 1900mzh 3G !!

thin compares to phones with qwerty keboard (f900 got no keyboard)

CON: i dont like the action/enter button on top right corner (near volume buttons), i have to reach all the way up there if i want to press enter! i perfer it at buttom of screen like other phones!

no 3.5mm jack.

not sexy! just look like any other phones, my silver sony X1 is sexy! haha

conclusion: get this phone if you want big screen (3.8" WVGA) and USA 850/1900 3G! other phones with big screen only have 1900 3G, not 850.

if you a sexy phone, get silver sony x1!, but with smaller 3.0" WVGA screen.

Samsung 533mzh, currently all htc phones is at 528mzh.

good thing Acer put their rom on website already.

just did a reflash rom, screen is not responding after installed some programs.

try to do a hardreset, manual said power + reset, then action button.

where the F@#$ is "action" button? i dont see no "action button", tried all other button, it not working. so i reflash the rom.

A couple of problems with my Acer F900... Other people?

I got my Acer F900 just yesterday from Expansys. I'm happy to report that the phone works very well on the US AT&T UMTS network.

I'm less happy to report a couple of very annoying problems:

1) When the device is powered off (with the button on its left side), it can't be turned back on. Actually, the power seems to come back since I can see the power LED start to blink but the screen is never re-activated. The only way I've found to re-activate the screen is to reset the device.

2) A minor problem is the Comm Setup Wizard's database lists old settings for AT&T's network. I can enter the information manually. Much more important is that every time I reset the device (quite often because of problem #1), the phone forgets the connection settings and I have to re-enter them.

I suspect that the problem behind #2 is a startup program in the registry that doesn't get cleared out. There are several start up programs listed (according to MemMaid) and I'm hesistant to just stop them all without some guidance.

I'm running ROM 1.02, the latest according to Acer's site. I haven't tried reflashing the ROM because that's kind of a pain and it seems to be the same version.

As for #1, I have no idea what the problem is. Has anyone run across something similar?

Also, does anyone know of forums specifically for the Acer F900? I realize that this is off-topic for xda.

Thanks!

Mark
[Off-topic] netnerd:
#1: setting -> system -> backlight -> backlight level, make sure

auto-adjust backlight by battery level

and

auto adjust backlight by idle time ARE CHECKED.

2. setting -> connections ->connections -> advanced -> select networks, make sure both box says "MY ISP", then press ok
[Off-topic] markaddleman:
Well, half of the problem is fixed. The phone no longer loses the AT&T data settings every time I reset, but I still need to reset every time the phone turns off.

Thanks for the backlight level but it doesn't seem to do the trick. I'm convinced the problem isn't a screen brightness issue. When the phone is off, it doesn't receive text messages or phone calls. Any idea what the problem might be? Do you think it could be a hardware problem?
[Off-topic] depp2web:
Hi, and thanks for your review, does this mean that the F900 has some “sort of” scroll wheel?
[Off-topic] netnerd:
F900 has no scroll wheel.

M900 with qwerty keyboard DOES.
[Off-topic] netnerd:
phone is off? dont u mean when backlight goes off? if u cant receive SMS or phone calls, usually the phone is freezed or locked up.

also try setting ->system -> power, on Key Lock the box should be BLANK.
[Off-topic] depp2web:
one more try: :)

the F900 has some + & - keys on the side, do they move the selection (eg. in a menu, scroll up/down in the browser etc.) or do they just change the volume?
[Off-topic] markaddleman:
netnerd -

Thanks for your help but I've decided to return the device to expansys for an exchange. I hope I don't have this problem with the next one!

Mark
[Off-topic] netnerd:
yes, the + and - button move up and down (scroll up/down, phone volume).

when in browser, it moves 1 line at a time, maybe there is a registry setting to make it move 1 page at a time.

but there is no button to move left or right.
[Off-topic] depp2web:
Sounds like good news for me!

Up / down is enough for me, at the moment I'm using a winmobphone with keyboard, dpad and scroll wheel, and I just need the scroll/up down feature, so it's Ok to lose some weight :)

Btw: at least the opera browser can be configured to scroll one page at a time

Thx again for your answers

Does the F900 feel big?

Im considering getting the m900 for the keyboard.

How much was it?
[Off-topic] depp2web:
Hi, if you like to hear some anwers from me:

No, it doesn't feel big to me, my previous phone with keyboard was much thicker, but I don't need the keyboard, so I bought one with out.

I paid over 400€ for it, I'm sure it's quite cheaper now, but wouldn't buy it anymore, there are much cooler phone out now, like the acer neotouch or the htc touch hd2.

i check this options but when i exit from the backlight control panel they are again unchecked and my screen switch off after 3 minutes.

Why it doesn't save the options anymore? Also the light sensor, works only when checked inside the backlight control panel, when exit it's again unchecked!!!

i also edited the registry as follow without success: the backlight switch off after 3 minutes because it is controlled by the battery status and not by the idle time setted :(

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Backlight]

"ACBacklightontap"=1

"BacklightLevel"=0

Ok so I was glancing through the logs and noticed the following. I'm assuming I'm not the only person with this issue so has anyone else noticed that opengl was not being initialized?

Very interesting point, I'd really like to see one of the more informed devs look at this. +1
[G1 Android Development] RaiderX303:
this would definitelly help rosie if its not working already with all the effects in the widgets
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
I think its using software based rendering which means more cpu power to do the effects
[G1 Android Development] RaiderX303:
but if opengl aint working then the cpu is doing all gpu work making the cpu do twice as much
[G1 Android Development] KyleK29:
Hmm, couldn't you test this by running an OpenGL or GPU intensive app (Doom?) on the Hero build. See if it differs significantly from the other builds.
[G1 Android Development] uberingram:
Maybe but you can't benchmark performance by saying "this seems faster" but that makes me wonder what the OGL logs are showing when you launch Doom, for instance.
[G1 Android Development] Sirus20x6:
Where are the logs saved?
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
He's either using log collector or ddms (SDK tool)
[G1 Android Development] KyleK29:
Well, if OpenGL isn't running correctly, I'm sure the difference may just very well be noticeable.

Ever tried to play a game in software mode? Not pretty.
[G1 Android Development] Auctionedllama:
Wow. This could be why it's always been pretty slow. Hmmm, someone should PM JustAnotherCrowd and inform him about this, just in case he doesn't know.
[G1 Android Development] maydaysos:
So is I guess the question is, is there an easy way of enabling this.
[G1 Android Development] alexjzim:
good way of putting it
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Ya I was using "adb logcat". So to find the error do this:

1) adb shell reboot

2) adb logcat

It will say waiting for device. Soon as the phone starts booting you'll see logs coming at you like there's no tomorrow. One of which will be that section that shows opengl not loading.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
The logs are not saved anywhere, they are sent to the console (linux term meaning if you connect to the syslog server you'll see debug messages scrolling like an IRC chatroom). You can view them with "adb logcat" but you'll have to have downloaded the free android 1.5 sdk in order to use that command. Once you download it, it's in the tools/ directory along with a bunch of other useful executables that anybody who wants to hack their phone will need.
[G1 Android Development] Sirus20x6:
ok well is there more to the log? when i look this up in google the explination for the error is just after the 60.00 Hz part

http://osdir.com/ml/android-porting/2009-04/msg00245.html
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
I have copybit.trout.so loaded so that is not the cause of the problem. Those modules are located at /system/lib/hw/

I don't believe overlay.*.so was ever compiled for the HTC Hero as it is not in the build. But since HAL is complaining about it AFTER opengl failed I don't think the two are related. Just my guess though
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
looking through my phone i don't see the overlays at all so i guess they weren't compiled. couldn't a developer take the missing overlays from a build that works and rebuild them to work on hero?
[G1 Android Development] jubeh:
i dont think i can remember the article where i read it, but due to the limitations of portable devices, android does not initialize opengl at the gpu until an app specifically requests it, this is both for gpu and cpu gl rendering. the display elements are all software rendered through a simple frame buffer to conserve battery life, so having opengl on all the time would still yield no advantage, quite the opposite actually, as you'd be draining your battery for nothing.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
overlay was never implemented on Android. At least not yet that anyone has seen released. If you check the cupcake build you'll notice that object file is not present either. Overlay support would not cause opengl to work/not work IMO.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
OpenGL is just a library API for using the graphics chip to do 3d rendering as opposed to the cpu working extra hard to get it done. So I would assume you'd be saving battery by allowing the graphics chip to do the rendering as opposed to the cpu fighting with OS requests and graphics rendering requests
