[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronniecross:
ok, I was really excited about getting my X1 for over a year, after it was first announced, finally got it in february, and what can i say? biggest piece of p**s letdown EVER!

Anyway, I spent the weekend at a festival, so got home and tried uploading my pics and videos.... but I cant!! Having tried on 2 PCs (home, XP, Activesync 4.5, Work, Vista, WMDC) on the XP machine I get a failed to sync error, and on the vista machine I get the most pathetic error message I have ever seen, EVER!!! The error message is: "Error". Well duh!!

So i've tried to go to add/remove programs, having had this problem before, and there is nothing in the list. So i cant remove any programs. I've tried to copy my pics/vids to my storage card, access is denied. Ive managed to upload my pics to facebook, but unfortunately cant do the same with my vids.

I have tried to delete an unrelated file, access denied.

SO I've googled the problem, and 2 fixes have been found:

Microsoft Support said: Hard reset device. (useful bunch, arent they??)

End-user gave a MSWord resolution, which worked for about 80% of people but not me, and quite a few others. The Word sollution doesnt look practical, I must say.

a LOT of people say they have experienced this after using Twikini... I dont use that, but I DO use TweetToday, or TodayTweet, whatever it's called.

Sorry if I come across a bit raged, I'm just so p**d off with MS after I was using Symbian for YEEEARS, moved to WinMo and have had months and months of dissapointment, only now to loose some of those memories that should be treasured. I refuse to do a hard reset, this is NOT a valid sollution. I have enough of that problem when my phone hard resets itself as it is!

I remember someone posting a fix to this, after the last time I had the problem, unfortunately it was too late, and i'd already hard reset by that stage. It was some kinda registry edit.... as I have CERegEditor I was hoping to find it, but having googled it, I cant :( Does anyone know where that is, or remember/know what the registry fix is?

Sorry about the rant, I really am :(

I had this problem before too. I tried everything, but in the end I just did a hard reset. Definately frustrating. :mad:

I have a strange problem, my screen didn't work as it should work so I tried to fix it.

When I remove the schreen from the cover it works fine, I can use the stylus and tap on the screen and it works!! then when I put back the screen in to the plastic cover and click it together the screen does'n work? I can use the butons but the stylus on the screen no way?

If I click the cover open at the butons side the screen does function again?

I have tried to us some plastic tape to eliminate short circuit, but it does'n work :(

I have 2 UNUSED (mint condition) Micahael Jackson Tickets in Manila when he was there last December 1996. I was wondering how much should I auction them in ebay?

Any suggestions?

DON'T! Just be patient before listing. Valuables don't become super-important the day of a person's memorial. Just chill out and wait around. Unless you're a poor person. Otherwise, don't regret holding off for a while. And don't be the first to list them... instead do some online research. I'm SURE there's a guide or an advisor to this type of thing somewhere at your disposal. Good luck, you horrible, ruthless profit-minded-techie.... :)

I might just do this. I bought the tickets for me and my ex-girl friend now my friend. She was returning them to me back in 2000, but I told her to keep it safe and someday it will be worth something. I asked her about it yesterday and she said...Yeah I still have it...so we might try and see how much we can get from it or it's value now. :) We weren't able to use it back then because her Mom won't let us go to the concert that day. Don't know why.

Hi all,

Recently, my phone seems go wrong. It always sudden shut down during my phone call / 3G internet connections. It keep annoying that it keep reboot again during the windows booting stage. Usually, it can be solved until I plug the power cable and reboot.

I tried to hard reset and even flash an new rom still not solving the problem. :confused:

Does anybody experience this before? Any solution?

Thanks in advance. :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GuyIncognito:
Sounds familiar

Well,

I had very similar issues.

It started out with the phone spontaneously resetting during calls, then when using 3G data connections (browsing the web, say). My battery showed fully charged, but the % charge would jump around a bit--e.g. 95% charge prior to reset during a call, 5% after rebooting, then it charged up very quickly.

After hard-resetting, re-flashing, and watching the battery meter, it turns out it was a bad battery. Replacing the battery fixed the problem. I had the unit about 2 years at that point.

Just a thought. The battery i purchased was OEM spec, model: samsung kais160. Cheap on the net (< $20 on ebay, I think I paid $25, shipped from HongKong). That is a 1350 mAh battery. Many places sell bigger batteries, that I was tempted to experiment with (1600mAh+). Oh, and watch out--some places try to sell you a 900mAh, which would be pretty anemic.

hello

you may not have hardspled your device before flashing WM 6 well if you can get to bootloader mode follow this link

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_recovery

this will recover your device and if successful you will be back to windows mobile 5 ROM now if your thinking of flashing to wm6 you need to follow certain guides before flashing a new ROM

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cl2eep:
Well, the presale of the MyTouch starts today for T-Mobile. When I found out that it had more RAM than the G1, I started thinking that perhaps the loss of the physical keyboard could be worth 90mgs of RAM. There's just one thing holding me back from pre-ordering... according to Haykuro, it can't be Rooted because of the SPL. I haven't seen any threads about this (and I did search), and haven't heard it before, but I'm pretty damn sure that Haykuro knows what he's talking about. Has anyone looked into this? Is there a way around it? I mean, the SPL not being able to be flashed would be a pretty damn big roadblock, but perhaps the collective intelligence of the devs here could think of something?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Synseer:
There is no way to root the Mytouch at the moment. And there are a few threads discussing this already. No access to the phone in Fastboot mode. Hopefully someone will come up with a solution soon.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] c_low29:
well when they do then i will buy it :) im happy with my g1 yes the My Touch is a lot nicer looking but it lost a lot of practical usage factors like the keyboard which was why i got rid of my crappy Samsung behold in the first place not to mention the reason why i didnt buy an iphone(among many other reasons.)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] frost785:
mytouch root links?

can you post the links where there discussing rooting the mytouch
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Six6Sicks:
Isn't the myTouch 3g basically the same as the Sapphire?

So wouldn't http://android-unleashed.com/tag/root-mytouch-3g work for the myTouch as well?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] frost785:
mytouch

there are different i believe the hardware is even differ the main problem is the radio and spl are diffrent while im not to sure how differ or really what that means as far as rooting it, that is the problem
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] minogue:
the mytouch has 192 mb Ram just like the G1......... Its the Htc branded magic and the rogers that have the 288Mb Ram...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cl2eep:
Really? Can you link to the page saying that the MyTouch is only 192? Every where that I've read, it is listed as being the same as the Magic/Sapphire as far as most of the hardware are concerned. I know there's a different Radio, to make 3g on T-Mobile possible, and a different SPL, which blocks Rooting, but I was under the impression that those were the only differences between a MyTouch and a Magic. I've held both and they certainly look the same. Why would HTC or T-Mobile manufacter a device with less RAM, when they already have a model with 288?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bachviet:
It's a re-branded Google Ion with different SPL and firmware. The Ion only has 192MB of RAM and has 1700/2100 for T-Mobile 3G.

I think all "Google Experience" aka Google branded Magics (myTouch 3G, Google Ion, and Vodafone Magic) have 192MB of RAM while the HTC branded Magics have 288MB of RAM (Rogers Magic, TW Magic, and etc). The Google branded Magics have 32B board while the HTC branded Magics have 32A board.

do we need to start another fund raiser for the mytouch 3g
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cl2eep:
Yep, that really made my decision for me. Definitely a no go. Why would anyone switch? More internal space is not worth the loss of the VK and no root. Boo on that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ashshlay:
Too many misconceptions are flying around about the mytouch.

True it isn't rootable yet.

False it has exchange in the version tmo employees have currently. Also it doesn't currently have sherpa.

All stores I know of have working demos in all colors in addition to 1 extra assigned to their htc "champion".

The device shows 288mb of ram which I don't think they will lower for a final release eventhough people are saying it. Has 192mb they are wrong. It has more ram than that free on the device alone when you look at the memory on the device and that's after using some up for programs.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bastage:
So does anyone have the Final release yet to know what the SPL & The ram is.. Or is everyone basing it off of different pre production devices..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] minogue:
the phone has 192Mb Ram Period.... It was comfirmed by an administrator at the tmobile forums.....

So anyone saying it has 288MB ram is dumb and should do some more research...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] theGchild:
for the record, the Ion has 288. i have one in my hands right now. :D

and despite what the administrators for tmo forums say, we'll wait until the production units ship. i've talked to too many "reps" and "experts" that know far less than i do about tmo to believe anything just on someone's word.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] elmoojps:
Looks like it has a lot more than 192mb

Okay so can someone please advise if the Mytouch 3G can be rooted with Hero rom and run smoothly....or will it run sluggish? or does it ultimately depend on how much crap you store on it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bastage:
I Think thats the Onboard Memory which is known to be 512..

Also @ minogue - My wife is a T-Mo rep & There internal info says that it has 192.. There internal info also says that the new Dash 3g Has Windows Mobile Professional 6.1 (in case your not familiar with winmo pro its for touchscreen devices ONLY & the dash is not a touchscreen device).. That doesn't exactly go to show accuracy in what there system says..

I Am hoping for the 288 & Regardless of what the internal docs say there are reports of the Google Ion (only other sapphire to run on the 1700 band) & the pre production MyTouch 3g's having 288.. So we will see in a week or so when the employees that didn't get the pre production units will be getting the 1st post production units..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bachviet:
That's the amount of ROM (storage) after boot (512MB total).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] markdt098:
I have a T-Mobile myTouch 3G and it 100% definitely has 192mb of RAM. It has the 32B board like the ION. For those posting screenshots or saying that the device shows 288MB, that is storage ROM, not RAM. There is a big difference.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
off track

guys, this thread is not about rom/ram 288 or 192 its about rooting it. we need to keep it on topic and figure out how to root the mytouch, i have one on the way and want to be ready to start hacking to get root...

now lets get back on track....anyone have a mytouch and/or ideas on how we can proceed with rooting???
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SCossio:
Good point Korndub. We need to get this phone rooted. I definitely need the Hero UI. its just that from the icons, to the widgets, to the clock, weather / calendar. everything looks so much more attractive on the Hero than google platform. Lets get this baby cracked open and get it rooted. I just hope that it runs smoothly
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bastage:
I Agree I Want to be able to root it in a Bad way.. But definitely not for the Hero's Ui.. I Loaded it on my G1 & found that in the end it over complicates what was once simple.. People act like its a huge groundbreaking change.. Its not.. Its a couple more widgets.. None of which did I Find to be any more functional then what you can get elsewhere from either the built in widgets or the shortcuts (for people) or widgets from the marketplace.. I Admit its pretty, but I Found it to be "not as snappy" With alot more wasted space..

I Would like to be able to use the tethering app though as well as other keyboards as I am a big fan of compact qwerty for portrait mode.. Not to mention adding the extra 2 tabs that cyrogens rom does is sweet..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] theGchild:
i agree with not needing the extra widgets and apps, but the htc dialer and htc camera are WAY better than the stock google ones. even market ones aren't as nice.

and to stay on topic, i'm following haykuro on twitter and he seems like he may just take a crack at rooting this ROM. let's all hope he feels like it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mykenyc:
so basically the hero rom makes the camera better also, like others i really couldn't care for the here on my mytouch just the extra tabs i kind of like the htc other keyboard better and the better camera will make me a happy camper...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
mykenyc - off track.... please everyone, lets stick to the topic so that this thread doesnt get closed!....

anyone have a magic NBH? preferably, rogers ??
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SCossio:
hardware specification

Okay so the question from FAQ's is the following: Is MyTouch the same device as the HTC Magic/ Google Ion

The anser is: The hardware of the myTouch is virtually the same as the HTC Magic. The exception is there will be exclusive application customization features......

....So with that said. You mean to tell me the SPL on this sucker is a some programming technickality getting in the way? If the hardware is the same shouldn't the rooting be the same?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
in essence the mytouch is the same as the google ion. the exception (software) may differ, but the real difference is the bootloader (SPL) the spl has a certain size and memory offset which may cause a problem.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sammypwns:
I'm going to make this as simple as possible. You will need an Ion NBH to root this thing because the Rogers NBH will have a different kernel and if you change it your file will no longer be signed and you will not be able to flash it. So someone needs to get an Ion NBH or start looking for a software exploit in userland
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mykenyc:
ok , i really hope this gets rooted or i will sell it and buy a rootable android phone
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
come on lets find that Ion NBH anyone tight with goog??? hahah....but seriously we need the mytouch rooted...

would the kernel matter? couldnt we flash the rogers NBH just to get the spl partition? then flash a corresponding rom once we can fastboot??
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sammypwns:
I'm not actually sure what would happen in that case, but yes the Rogers kernel would make a large difference as OS won't load. Also I assume that the NBH would flash the recovery partition too and the H recovery won't work with a G phone, but I think you can just fastboot a G recovery too.

My concern is that you won't be able to flash it as I don't think, for example, a NLD TP2 can be flashed with a signed WWE rom without a Hard-SPL.

An Ion NBH would be the most problem free but not only do you have to find one, you need to find one with an SPL...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seraph1024:
I have an ion. I'll try to get you guys the NBH.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
awesome!!!! that would be great - i believe i should be getting my mytouch by the 17th.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ikon810:
Yeah if we could get this phone rooted it would be great!

I'm getting the myTouch on Aug 3rd. If someone can't find a way to root it, I might end up like mykenyc and selling the phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] frost785:

just thought: unless they changed release keys, flashing a magic NBH with a hackable SPL should allow rooting mytouch.. someone want to try? tweeted by haykuro yesterday

im surprised that google don't give it up its T-mobile that's riping the openness out of android. Its suppose to be open WTF!!!! ROOT USER SHOULD BE THE DEFALUT USER!!!

I KNOW IM NOT ALONE ON THIS
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
off topic bm1515 - however, i would love to respond to "should be the default user"

read:

Root privileges are the powers that the root account has on the system. The root account is the most privileged on the system and has absolute power over it (i.e., complete access to all files and commands). Among root's powers are the ability to modify the system in any way desired and to grant and revoke access permissions (i.e., the ability to read, modify and execute specific files and directories) for other users, including any of those that are by default reserved for root.

making the "default user" root would be an amazingly risky thing to do... hence the reason we have the SU Whitelist app.

back on topic please!

what can we do to obtain root on the mytouch 3g. none of the methods for the other magics will work on mytouch so since there is no ION NBH, whats next? application exploit? which applications use the right UID to exploit?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] toolbox123:
Besides the lack of hardware keyboard and the "perfect" SPL , what exactly is different about the rooting process from the G1?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
with the G1 the telnet exploit gave us the opportunity to get root. *we did have the NBH with the exploitable telnet bug*

this one cannot be rooted via the bug because it has been fixed. rooting this device will be a complex task....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] toolbox123:
And I'm just throwing this out there because I know next to nothing about the mytouch.... but could you not flash the old NBH just long enough to reopen that patch, then telnet via ADB or something like python and upgrade to a modded rom from there?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] motivecc:
the device is subsidized via t-mobile and sold exclusively with on a contract base with the manufacturer... they can do whatever they want to it...

if you want a device that is open, then buy a dev phone... nothing is stopping you except the fact that you probably don't want to spend 500 dollars
