[XPERIA X1 General] nonno:
I use my MarkSpace Missing Sync for Windows Mobile (http://www.markspace.com/) to sync Address Book and iCal with my X1. I tried SyncMate (the paid version), didn't like it, think it needed more development; one annoying thing it did was try to grab every USB device connected to my Mac. I've also got Parallels VM installed, so I can also use MS ActiveSync.

I don't worry too much about trying to sync with iTunes or iPhoto, just simply mount my X1 and transfer files using drag and drop - keep it simple.

I also use my X1 as a wireless broadband modem. I use OS X bluetooth DUN rather than a USB connection, works well.

I don't consider OS X and WM compete at all. In fact there's plenty of support around that they complement one and other nicely.
[XPERIA X1 General] x666:
I've been totally anti-microsoft mac-head person for a long time... BUT I've been a huge fan of SE phones also for a equally long time.

I was thinking of getting a iPhone like everyone else, but there were so many features missing you'll get on a "regular" smartphone. And I was also a avid Palm user also in their pre-phone pda heyday. So it was just so logical go with X1.

Just flashed to 6.5 it got rid of so many annoying things I didn't like on 6.1. Mainly on UI side. And I love the superhackability of WM/HTC phones. You can do anything like with them. iPhones a different game.

Basically the keypoints for me were keyboard, console-emulators and expanpability/hackability. Actually I consider my X1 as a nice little xtra laptop to live alongside my MacBook Pro. Nowadays I don't drag my 17" inch along all the time as I can do all the things I need on the go with X1. And WM is a pretty straightforward and basic OS so I get along with it.

My mac talks and syncs pretty decently with X1 via Missing Sync. It's not perfect but enough for me. And mostly the regular usb transfer does the trick.

And after founding out xda-developers this has grown into a nice little hobby to tweak around with WM :)
[XPERIA X1 General] Rudegar:
I use itune agent to sync my itune music on pc with my x1 it works

ok another option is the program salling

both are made to sync non ipods/phones with itunes

but not sure if there are mac versions of them or other options for mac
[XPERIA X1 General] hezz05:
Are you guys also irritated by OS X leaving invisble files on Windows devices? I'm guessing it's something that has a good function within OS X itself, but outside of OS X it just takes up space.

[XPERIA X1 General] ddutchie:
Hey all, I was using Missing Sync from MarkSpace worked great, although sometimes you might need to reboot both devices if recognisation is FAIL.

Anyway ran into some problems a while back with restoring my backups with some roms just failing after a restore, figured it mustve been a problem with a specific contact, so now have two different contact databases, my phone and my pc.

yo hezz05 look at blueharvest http://www.zeroonetwenty.com/blueharvest/

should help

[XPERIA X1 General] hezz05:
Thanks! Just installed it, hopefully will keep those files off of my devices.

What do you mean? To backup or update your contactlists etc?

I just use a free copy of Syncmate, I only use it to backup contacts. Other stuff I just drop as a USB drive.

Hi!

I have been using Sony ericsson phones, USB 3g-modems and other stuff successfully with pppd and chat scripts, but i can't get it working with the Diamond. I have enabled internet sharing over Bluetooth PAN on the phone itself and i can successfully establish a bluetooth connection, but i get an ERROR in the chat script no matter what command i send to it, ATZ, ATDT, ATD anything just gives me ERROR...

I've tried for example this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=257769

[G1 General] premedicated:
The speaker (in the back of the phone, used to media) just stopped working on my G1 last night. Thought maybe a restart would help but no soup. Any thoughts or ideas on whether this is possibly fixable? Or should I just contact HTC and send it back in for repair?

If you're rooted, i'd try wiping/another build, just to be sure, but otherwise I'd do a warranty exchange.

I just got back from the store, playing with the Palm Pre.

Wow great phone! made my HD feel old. The internet on it is amazing.

Thinking about getting one.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] johnpatcher:
So what do you want to hear right now? Looking at the Pre I think that it looks quite odd, but maybe I'm just not a fan of Palm at all :(.

Its display is smaller than the one of the HD, so I can't imagine that the browsing experience is better ...

Why do you think that your HD is old, compared to the Pre?

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Pandemoniumone:
Lol! This made me laugh, thank you! You said it exactly right, I love my Blackstone. The two palms I owned were never given half the respect I give my HD. I personally will never by a palm again.

I saw a video review of the palm pre on youtube and it looks nice but im not giving up my hd for it. I think the hd has a bigger screen than the palm pre
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] goldsfool:
Ha, yea that was really funny :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] roheelshah:
i dont know if its just me but watching the video on the pre on youtube, it seemed to function ALOT slower(not from specs, just observation), specs wise it seems like the hd is abit better, resolution? camera?

although the lil keyboard looks nice!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tikejhya:
hd is hd rest of all ****** (sensor)

no matter whatever comes out but you need something really stronger to beat blackstone. only 1 positive thing i have seen in pre is multitouch, screen and model is ****.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] andes83:
Well as i wrote in another thread about the new Iphone i won't change my HD for anything that is "slightly" better .Palm has a nice little keyboard and that's the only advantage in my opinion it's all about the screen for me sorry but that's the way it is "bigger is better" and that's final .Even with 1240x1024 resolution if it's only 2 inches big it's crap.I'll prefer the HD over any device on the market now only people who have it understand that it is a masterpiece and the little bugs and flaws that it has only make it more interesting to play with :p
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Robert A:
:D:D:D:D:D:D verry funny:D:D

from my opinion blackstone it's the very best design ever with his large screen ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] aussiebum:
Agreed... coming from an X1 to an HD I can wholly say that hi-res on a tiny screen = pointless.

This reason is also precisely why the iPhone (and Pre) aren't worth it if you want to use your phone for web surfing - the lower screen resolution + size means more time spent zooming in and out of webpages and squinting at a the tiny text on a (relatively) tiny screen... no thanks!

Not interested in any other (non-windows mobile) phone until I can pair up both a bluetooth keyboard and mouse with it (iGo keyboard + mouse ftw :D)

Now if they would just squeeze more memory (512mb pls!) and a faster processor (Snapdragon? Tegra?) into the same body as a HD then I'm sold :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] chris2.0:
I also went from a X1 to a HD! BIIIIG difference!

BUUUUT - I'm a big Plm fan - will at least get a Palm Pre to play with for a while!

Here's hoping the 3rd Palm WebOS device is a iPhone/HD type big touchscreen device, with or without a keyboard but with 800x480 screen!

[General Questions and Answers] TouchyDiamond:
Hi everybody, I got my 1st WM device 2 weeks ago, and wherever I went, I found links to this forum. Since then I found so many great applications here (and I haven't even done a systematic search), so thanks a lot for this cool place! :)

One thing is missing badly for me though: On my old Symbian 3rd I was asked every time an application wanted to access the internet (and also write/read data). I could block it, allow it once or permanently. So almost exactly the same I have on my desktop with Sunbelt.

Now on WM, it seems to be totally common that every application can access the net as it likes to, without any kind of user confirmation. And I really don't feel comfortable about it. Who knows an application doesn't scan my phonebook or other personal data and upload it somewhere without me even knowing about it?!

So I did lots of searches, and the "best" I found was "Airscanner Mobile Firewall". Unfortunately though, it lacks application-based rules. You can only block E-Mails completely, or ICMP, or... But it doesn't protect you from installed software going online is it pleases.

Apart from that, there seem to be no tools for this at all. There are call blockers or tools that cut off internet completely, but no tools to control web access based on application. To be honest, I'm totally surprised by this, since there is thousands of apps for WM for anything else. It doesn't even seem to be a topic that concerns lots of WM users, while the creators of Symbian obviously took it quite serious.

I know I could have posted this in the "ideas for apps" thread, but first I wanted to check I didn't miss any existing software.

Thanks for any hints!

[General Questions and Answers] TouchyDiamond:
Well, if this seems to be of no interest to anybody, I guess it means there never have been any cases of spyware on WM yet ever?

Is it not technically possible for an application to read the entire memory of a WM device and send it anywhere without the user taking notice? Let alone install a keylogger, reset the device and other evil stuff?

Try placing the thick edge of the bugger toward the charger(USB) end of the phone. Just a little push and it will go smoothly.

[Touch 3G General] DaM79:
Hi there,

got a prob with QuickGPS and TomTom.

First TomTom says "no gps device" (or something like that - I use the german one). Tried everything, without success.

Then I tried to update QuickGPS. Download starts, but "crashes" before reaching 100%. Tried a lot, even via ActiveSync etc etc.

So I tried some QuickGPS Cab File from somewhere on the web. Installed it, tried to start it, without success, as it is not signatured digitally.

So deinstallation of this version, and now even the old one is lost.

My question:

1. Can anyone supply me with the official QuickGPS CAB of the latest official ROM (2.32...)

2. Can anyone supply me with the certain reg-info?

Thx in advance! About to face a hard reset - but not willing to...
[Touch 3G General] Arunia:
I would advice you just to redo the last firmware.

You will be getting your Quickgps back.

There might be someone on here with a better idea, but most likelly you will be ending up with hard resetting anyway.
[Touch 3G General] DaM79:
Doing it right now. Somehow this problem seems to be a pretty common one, but noone in all those forums ever placed a working solution. Bad luck, as I have had a lot of tools setup pretty well... But hey, thats windows! :o
[Touch 3G General] hadimassa:
What version of TomTom do you have? If tomtom says no device then you have to check your port(4) and baud(4800) settings and make sure you use the internal gps.
[Touch 3G General] ZongaBr:
I had the same problem but

Mine is a HTC clone... I had the same problmes .

Quick GPS does not work at all at the clone, since they use another gps

There was a alternative Software for quick GPS, but, i am sorry, i forgot the name. Google may help.

Hi, I use some call recording program I think from HTC but when I record the call only my voice is clear but the others side is too low:(

so what the best program I can use?

sorry for my English.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] poetryrocksalot:
There is no difference in the program that can do this. Your mic simply records what it hears. Turn on the speaker phone during conversation. I think that is the best thing to do.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] souljaboy:
tips i have on this

- turn OFF mic auto gain controll in controll panel

- use speaker if possible

- use audionotes(very best call rec program by far)
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] comeradealexi:
I found no software which is really good but if you can this is what i did - plug your x1 into your digital in socket in the pc using a male to male 3.5mm cable - then use Audacity to record - i did this and even my voice was picked up and since it is coming in through the digital input no quality is lost - worked for me because i found that any software was not very good quality
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] poetryrocksalot:
Resco Audio Recorder + Speaker phone is perfect conversation quality.

Problem status: fixed?

For some reason GMail Inbox doesn't work properly on my HTC Magic (Vodafone)

If I get new mail it shows up on gmail.com but it doesn't arrive in my Magic's Inbox, and doesnt give me any notifications.

The are the only two ways to get the new mail on my phone:

a) Use the "All Messages"-Label - the new messages show up there, but I get no notification whatsoever.

Also I have to get to the "All Messages"-Label every time I start GMail

or

b) Go to "Settings" -> "Labels" -> Set sync from "4 days" to "all" -> Go back and hit refresh (or wait for autosync).

This only works ONCE. If I want to receive mail again I have to repeat the whole procedure (go to settings, labels, etc.. you get the idea)

Phone Details:

HTC Magic (Vodafone, out-of-the-box-Rom)

Apps installed: Battery Widget, Toggle Settings, some Toggle Widgets (Ringer, Brightness, Bluetooth, Wifi), Advanced Task Manager Lite, Estongs File Explorer, StreamFurious, Any Cut, SMS Popup, Shazam, Gmote 2.0, some games

Tried the whole thing on a clean install - didn't work either (took me 1 hour to reinstall and reconfigure everything - yay...)

Possible solution:

Go to application settings and delete the cache for "Speicherplatz bei GMail" ("GMail Storage" in english?). This worked for me the first time.

On another phone I had to disable the automatic gmail sync, wait a day, then delete the cache and re-enable gmail sync.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] XebozZ:
Ok, it seems I am not the only one having this problem. Using google I found 3 other posts in forums descirbing the same problem with GMail on Android:

- New Mails don't appear in "Inbox" (therefore no notification)

- Mails can be shown when you click "All Mail" / "All Items", they even have the "Inbox"-Label there

I've got the very same problem on a Galaxy. I have reset the device several times, deleted the gmail, google apps and other storages. Everything I tried just fixed the issue for exactly one sync. The next message would again go to "Alle Nachrichten".
