Hey,

I'm looking for an application named AndroidGlobalTime (The one with the 3D Global that should example the use of OpenGL), but any apk file that I have downloaded was defect and the Package Manager always say "There is a problem parsing the package" when I'm trying to install it.

I'm using the Rogers Rom on G1.

Does anyone have a working apk file of that app?

Thanks,

I installed this app SmileySMS, and removed it, and since then it messed up my SMS/MMS settings. Now when I send a message I get a confirmation that the message was sent (and an annoying 'blip').

Does anyone know how to remove it? I couldn't find how...

thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] shayan.k:

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] funky-vader:
so yeah im pretty new to this . and all i really want is a theme,and some information thats simple to understand ...basically some human to human info instead of reading through page after page not knowing whats going on...some tips on how to change the theme would help ..all i can change is the border the rest stays the same no new picture or icons etc...

thanks
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] skribzy:
have you found a theme you like?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] funky-vader:
its ok now ive more or less figured it out..id just like some info on what the different roms and whatnot do ?
[XPERIA X1 General] frozenwaffles:
time for an iPhone 3G S tomorrow! yay...

X1 was the biggest dissapointment ever for me! this phone was so over hyped and then when it finally came out the panels interface was just this biggest flop ever! still is...i mean seriously?!?!? where are they all?

anyway...enough of all this windows mobile ****...even 6.5 is a let down...

i guess thats why i'm also buying a MacBook Pro next week too!
[XPERIA X1 General] vijayvasa:
AM in the same boat, first time got fed up with xperia problems so much , that i bought a iphone 3gs, although am still using both,,, i cant tell you ,,how much easier things are in 3gs with all the apps around.

[XPERIA X1 General] Dr.Sid:
Well .. I'm quite disappointed too .. but iPhone just wont cut it for me. For example I require playback of non-converted videos in common formats (avi,mpg,flv). No smartphone can do that well at the moment.

I'm at the moment I'm staying with Xperia and hoping that Palm wont block 3rd part media player development ..

But sure, iPhone, especially the new one, looks great, and everything it can do it does better. Way better.
[XPERIA X1 General] ratchetnclank:
iPhone is for macfags.
[XPERIA X1 General] Angelusz:
The panels interface was indeed the most useless thing ever. That's why I uninstalled it. Although you have had some problems with the X1, you'll encounter new ones with the new iPhone. Add to that, you'll be paying a bucketload of money for that new device. Why would you buy a MacBook? Windows mobile =/ Windows.

Interesting that you're still using both. Apparently the iPhone lacks something that the X1 doesn't.

And another great example of how every device has it's problems. There is simply not one device that has it all.

That is degenerating, not a proper way to approach posts like the above.

--

All in all, personally I prefer the X1 (or any WVGA HTC WM phone) over the iPhone because it's customizable. I like being able to tinker around with it. I also prefer Microsoft's approach (although, I'm aware, they're just as imperfect as any other company) to operating systems.

Then again the iPhone does have much better graphical support, smoother UI etc.

If only Apple and Microsoft would merge ;)
[XPERIA X1 General] orelsi:
iPhone is for tech illiterate sheep that want to look trendy in front of their equally degenerated friends. Flashy, useless, unproductive toy with features that phones had in 1999............
[XPERIA X1 General] c_legaspi:
let us know how you like your iphone.

i was looking and playing with one the other day. it was ok but i like the customization that you can do on the windows mobile. i like the big screen but i didnt like the touch (capacitance?). i like to use my fingernails a bit and it doesnt work on the iphone screen.
[XPERIA X1 General] WelshBluebird:
The major problem with the iPhone for me is the lack of a hardware keyboard. I can handle a normal phone keypad, prefer a qwerty keyboard but cannot type on a touchscreen. I don't care what some people say, for me, a touchscreen keyboard is not good enough.
[XPERIA X1 General] comeradealexi:
Its not just the xperia its self that puts it down - its the lack of a Microsoft Marketplace yet and Windows mobile 6.5 - xperia would be a lot better if Windows Mobile Market place was available and if the scrolling on it was iphone smooth other than that i like my xperia

Same - i used ipod touch for typing for ages but after i used xperia keyboard i never want to use a touchscreen keyboard again!
[XPERIA X1 General] bronx:
have You ever had an iphone in Your hand? obviously You are talking nonsense. these days You can do almost every thing on ipod that it's doable on winmo. okay... it is not so customizable, but it's interface is simple and just works. works like a charm. I am keeping xperia only untill september and after that I'll get iphone 3gs or something else, maybe n97 or omnia hd. dunno... it pisses me off that for instance I cannot view videos recorded with my wifes n95 8gb without reencoding. that is just f... silly this days.

why iphone 3gs? well... I went to o2 store yesterday to have a look and I am simply amazed. speed. SPEEED..... it is just that feeling of smootheness of whatever You do on those non wm devices.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QMx6aLGWVU I know, it's not perfect, but try to record something similiar with x1.

please, feel free to give me some reasons why it is worthy to stick with windows mobile except rom flashing and customization of visuals... multitasking is nice, true, but how often You just cannot live without it?? well I can...
[XPERIA X1 General] de Wolfe:
Yeah dude! The iPhone of course isn't over hyped at all :D :D :D

You'll regret that soon ;)
[XPERIA X1 General] comeradealexi:
Exactly what i want in xperia and the smoothness is the main reason i am drawn to the iphone - if the xperia is just as powerfull as the iphone 3G (if not more) why cant it be as smooth is it to do with the resistive touchscreen????
[XPERIA X1 General] Lizzo:
u say that u cant view videos recorded with an n95 8gb on ur x1 without re-encoding it(i can btw), but how do u intend to do it using an iPhone?
[XPERIA X1 General] bronx:
if You are saying that You can view those videos recorded @ 640 x 480 highest quality on n95 8gb smoothly without massive stuttering, then You are lying. period. I never said that I want an iphone to watch my wifes videos, the other thing is that I never said that I hate xperia. as a matter of fact I still like it a lot, but I am bit tired with this all customize & tweak me for weeks stuff just to realise it is still slow.
[XPERIA X1 General] comeradealexi:
I guess when you get something like an iPhone it works fine out of the box you dont need to tweak it to get it right which is which is what i dont get from windows mobile devices - why are they not already tweaked to offer the best performance?
[XPERIA X1 General] bronx:
simple example - why, oh why those simple tweaks like increasing of glyph and filesystem cache are not factory set for performance??
[XPERIA X1 General] yessird:
couldnt agree more with u on the disappointment part, sony ericsson produced one hell of a **** expensive phone.. sometimes im even using my old 1st gen iphone :s
[XPERIA X1 General] felixkry:
Xperia broken.

Last Saturday my X1 broke. I was at a party and decided to jump over a car gate at an old summerhouse. Thing is, it wasn't steadied at all or fastened in the ground, so it swung with my body, resulting in me landing hard on it and it gave my Xperia a good blow. Now half the screen is dead and the slider part is crooked, and I don't have insurance on it so it'll cost me about 100 - 200 dollars to get it fixed.

That is why I'm getting an iPhone 3GS when it comes to Sweden. I like the seamless Mac experience that just works (and is really great looking) and, actually, the fact that I'm not gonna want to flash it every other day.

Don't get me wrong here, I'm quite the avid customizer of all things techy, and I love playing around with settings and tweaks just to feel like I'm improving my device. Now really. I understand why the people here at XDA like their devices - it's because of the new roms. BUT. It's simply retarded for the company making the phone not to include those optimisations OOTB. I understand that a lot of things is set slower by default to gain battery and ensure a safe phone, but let's face it. An iPhone provides a better experience for ALL customers, not only the ones who know how to tweak their device.

I'd suggest by simple human psychology patterns that people like tweaking their phones because it brings them a satisfactory sense of being special - knowing something not all the owners of a particular thing knows. Though, think about it. It would be kind of nice to be free of the constant urge to flash your phone, all you flashoholics? I sure know that I feel that way. Sort of like being free from a time consuming freedom or wanting a schedule when you have nothing but free time.

That's just my two cents, I won't miss my Xperia much. I'm rather glad it broke (although it was a blow to my economics, but hey). :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X1 General] comeradealexi:
Yea i started flashing my phone but then one day i realised that the stock ones are just as good really and more stable but your right about the tweaking and such it makes you feel like your phone is faster - Maybe when you start using your iphone you will start to miss and acknowledge the little things that make the xperia really good but we will see (:
[XPERIA X1 General] felixkry:
I had smabergs's Touch X so I'll miss the nice sms interface, and of course the keyboard! Other than that, I'll make it through my switch fine ;)
[XPERIA X1 General] orelsi:
Yes.

No.

Yes... it is.................. simple (as in useless).....

Xperia makes much better videos than the iPhone....

All the time. I use it 24/7.
[XPERIA X1 General] Lizzo:
i dont kno wats wrong with ur x1, BUT MINES DOES PLAY BACK HI QUALITY VIDEOS RECORDED FROM MY N95 8GB WITH LITTLE TO NO STUTTERING!:D
[XPERIA X1 General] comeradealexi:
If the Xperia doesnt get a 6.5 update then I will be pretty ticked off and i will be drawn to the iphone knowing it will continuously be recieving updates where as Sony Ericsson and the Xperia - I just feel so out of touch like we dont get told anything - not even what was fixed in R3A officially - SE lets down the Xperia with their poor support - i wont be getting an iphone though i still got a while on my xperia contact and when that ends hopefully the X2 will be awesome and the Mobile Marketplace a hit
[XPERIA X1 General] millen:
Completely agree. Throw in a keyboard, and my Xperia is goooone. But for now; no phone outsmarts my Xperia when it comes to...

- Text messaging

- E-mails

- Screen resolution

- Battery time

- Typing

- GPS (route 66)

- Torch (flashlight)
[XPERIA X1 General] THESpideyWVU:
That is the best description of an iPhone I have ever seen.
[XPERIA X1 General] THESpideyWVU:
You're here already, the 6.5 updates are all over the place! Not a single phone on the market is going to get a 6.5 update from the manufacturer. Flashing a ROM is very very easy, it takes a couple minutes to learn the routine, a couple minutes to flash the ROM. It'll take 15 minutes at the most the first time, and under 10 anytime thereafter.
[XPERIA X1 General] comeradealexi:
Yea i know how to flash and i ahve flashed a lot of 6.5 roms but it would feel weird buying apps on a non official rom - i'd be so much happier if there were a official 6.5 upddate but i doubt that will come :(
[XPERIA X1 General] frozenwaffles:
both of you are just as stupid as each other...lol

This iphone 3G S is the best phone i have ever owned....you wanna know why???

BECASUE IT JUST WORKS!!!

it does what it says it does...and does it so much better than win mo...

seriously mac all the way! i'm going to replace all my office machines soon too with macs...yeah baby
[XPERIA X1 General] ratchetnclank:
:rolleyes:

If you wan't a fast usable phone get an android phone by HTC, they are more customisable than the iphone and isn't locked down and restricted by the applefags.
[XPERIA X1 General] substance90:
I am too generally disappointed by my Xperia, I mean hardware-wise it`s an amazing device, but WM just sucks... Using the valkyrie WM 6.5 custom build right now and that makes my Xperia slightly more usable.

Still I`m thinking about getting the HTC Hero when it comes out. Looks a lot better than WinMo, but still is more customizable then the iPhone.
[XPERIA X1 General] bronx:
hmm... reading Your post makes me thinking that You have serious problems understanding written english. to repeat: iphone 3gs is recording videos much better than xperia. which part of this sentence You don't understand? are You fanboyed too much to understand that simple fact?

I still love a lot my x1, but time is flying and new devices are getting better. face it. iphone 3gs will get jailbreaked soon (if it's not allready) and it's the only real iphone killer for now.
[XPERIA X1 General] Xaffax:
Ok I often thought about flingin my X1 to the wall. It can be very irritating.

But not as irritating as people yelling I-Phone all the time on the X1 forums!!!

Iphone is NOT an option!

two reasons:

1:You will never own an Apple. Apple will own you.

2:No keyboard

I Let's face it, X1 users need a hard keyboard. So there is limited competition. I mean correct me if I'm wrong but if it didn't have a keyboard I don't think most of us would have even looked at the X1.

As it stands now. my X1 is a serious reason not to go for the X2.

I would not have bought it, if I had known it was so much work, to get it to function on barely acceptable levels.

I don't think there is a really good smart phone out there yet. They all have some strong points and a lot of weaknesses. The technology is there, they just haven't figured out how to put it all in one easy to use bug free package.
[XPERIA X1 General] azian_advanced:
i don't get it. what's with all this talk about the x1 not working like it should? i've had my x1a since the end of november 2008 on R2A firmware and have no problems whatsoever except for the occasional soft reset (which imo is common for all smartphones)?
[XPERIA X1 General] comeradealexi:
Yea the Hardware keyboard was the most Unique Selling Point - especially for me (note my Sig and User Pic of tha keyboard) - i had hardly even heard of windows mobile before i bought my xperia and when i bought my xperia i didnt even know it was windows mobile (shows how much research i did) but if the x1 didnt have a keyboard I would never have bought it - i think it will be like that for every 1 though i mean - your not gunna get it cause of the meh panels lol.

I heart my x1 greatly but its the OS that lets it down
[XPERIA X1 General] alias_neo:
Bleh

I think my Xperia was ok, but I played with the Nokia N97 last night, it was so good i handed my iphone to some 15 year old kid. N97 for me, the touchscreen is bigger and amazingly sensitive, comparative to the iphones, but without all the apple bull****. N97 and my X1i are my only two phones I need.
[XPERIA X1 General] bronx:
n97 is my other option as well, I just need to check it myself tho'. a bit of a let down is a lack of 3d hardware present in n95s, but I am not a hardcore gamer, so it may be ok. the big advantage of n97 is it's build quality. have You seen those scratch tests on engadget? amazing stuff.

as I said before - I'll stick with x1 for 2, maybe 3 more months and I shall see. unless I'll find an uber rom which will give it a serious kick, it goes.

don't get me wrong, for serious video recording I have my trusty cybershot w290, but it's a pain in the ass to know that I can have better device for same money. (but I doubt it as price of x1 is going down fast)
[XPERIA X1 General] frive:
Are we talking about mobile phones here or about some games console?

If you want to play video games go get a PSP or Nintendo DS....
[XPERIA X1 General] substance90:
Since when do cybershots offer "serious video recording" and nokia phones offer "hardcore gaming"? :D
[XPERIA X1 General] bronx:
since i.e. w290 can record 720p high quality videos and since N95 8gb quake 3 full speed, full speed gba emulator and lots of other.

Mac Virus lol - What a slap in the face to Apple
[XPERIA X1 General] sonus:
I can honestly say that I understand those of you who want the iPhone and its "just works" mantra.

Nonetheless, even with the release of iphone os 3.0, apple is still far behind winmo in terms of actual functionality. The iphone now has a2dp, video recording, mms, and some other stuff, but it still isn't very functional. It still lacks basics like a real today screen, full control of bluetooth, multitasking, and outlook syncing.

Yes there are workarounds to those iphone issues, but those are buggy. I'll be happy my x1 for a while longer.
[XPERIA X1 General] comeradealexi:
Yea it has some good points yet still lacks some really basic things... You cant even change your homescreen background! its just black (unless jailbreak) and one of the reasons iPhone isnt for me is it only has 4 buttons - Touch is good but sometimes you just still want the feel of it
[XPERIA X1 General] DatDereX1:
not only that, but apple doesn't let developers make any software they want. apps have to be approved by apple and the os has other limitations
[XPERIA X1 General] Hannigan174:
So it's not for everyone

I find it interesting that these keep popping up.

If you don't like an Xperia, go get a different phone. There is nothing wrong with that. Each of the phones mentioned has its pros and cons. I love my Xperia, because I modded it, because I am a member of XDA-developers.

If you are not into customizing your interface, or having power user features, maybe the Xperia is not the best device for you. That's fine. I don't see how it is fruitful to bash on the device. I know most of the posts here have been polite and had a point, but I don't know how it is useful to anyone to complain about WM or Xperias on a WM development site.

I don't go to Apple Dev sites to rip on Apple's App limitations (or Symbian or Blackbery), because it would only make them upset that I don't understand the positives of their devices. So please, before complaining about why you do not like the device you got, consider why you got yourself a device that really wasn't right... for you.
[XPERIA X1 General] Dr.Sid:
Well venting your frustration can be healthy :D

Anyway I guess we bashers also want to discuss alternatives, and avoid the same hasted buy we did with Xperia. We want to hear what people thinks about our new decision, especially those who already did it. And yes, they keep coming back to this forum even after they sold X1.

Same way I can say why do you join bashing thread when you don't actually want to bash :D Just kidding.

[XPERIA X1 General] bronx:
not You again... like how many times do I have to remind You, that alternative device discussed in here is iphone 3gs, which is slightly different (or twice as quick and beefed up if You like...) to oridinary iphone that we wouldn't even consider as a device of choice?? what's wrong with You? You seemed to be quite smart, but I guess You ain't...
[XPERIA X1 General] orelsi:
It's the same device with features that are 10 years behind modern phones. Do your research next time. Slightly isn't a proper word in this case. In order to the describe the changes made to the iPhone over the years you must use something like microscopic or non existent.

Oh no !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will go throw myself from the nearest bridge !!!!!!

Just google "why iPhone sucks".

[XPERIA X1 General] substance90:
um, who said the discussion was only about iphone 3gs vs. Xperia? Simply the OP stated that he wants an iphone, but there are other options.

For example I consider HTC Hero as a replacement for my Xperia.
[XPERIA X1 General] alias_neo:
Bleh

I still think that anyone with an education or has real work to do can't be totally happy with an iPhone. You can't call me a fanboy or hater, I had an iPhone and gave it away to some kid in the street all excited cause he wanted one. My Xperia is far from perfect, but it gets all my work done and does it without problems. The leisurely things are a plus and so I can deal with taking my time to mod them. (In a/100 of the time it takes to modify an iphone fully just to perform the standard features a real user needs from a mobile device in this day and age.)

By all means get an iphone, I bought one with the same enthusiasm, but when it comes to getting some real work done, it's a pain in the arse, all i can say.
[XPERIA X1 General] chalid:
I dont get it. Why do ppl fall into that black and white thinking when it comes to the iphone? Yes, fanboys are more than annoying, and that arguing with them can get out of hand, but there aren't any here.

The iphone is a overhyped mobile device - thats for sure. However, it's not that piece of **** that some ppl here say it is. I don't like apple's politics on apps and their restrictions on developing them, but one has to admit, that apple did a nice job with the fluid working and easy to use OS.

Don't get me wrong, I like WM more than the iphone OS. It's highly customizable and current builds on up-to-date devices are very fast. BUT lets face it, WM needs that customization. Out of the box it just sucks.

Hopefully WM won't mess up WM 7 ... ;)
[XPERIA X1 General] adam18488:
iphone vs xperia = xperia wins by a looooooooooong way.

but when u bring in the app store...the iphone wins. purely as a phone the xperia is way better, but the app store makes the iphone what it is.

if windows mobile marketplace ever comes to existence...iphones will bow down to windows:eek:
[XPERIA X1 General] orelsi:
Yeah, but WinMo has thousands of apps. Most of them are useful too, not like the iFart, iPuke or the "dog licks the inside of the screen" apps for the iCrap.
