[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothal3v3l:
With all these complaints im now worried. I just sent in my x1i in today due to keyboard problems. I dont feel like sending in my phone repeated amounts of times and surely dont want to wait over the promised amount of time which was 10 buisness days. And for those of you who recieved an x1a they did ask ur permission first am i right? I personally refuse to recieve an x1a in return for my x1i. im aware its compatible with the 3g settings but im fine with my hsdpa on att :)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibeQuint:
just don't let them replace it. they don't have X1i's no matter what anyone says I've talked to the head of the repair place + the executive customer service person.. they never get x1i's in ever even though many supervisors will say they do.. they just assume people don't know the difference.

but odds are it won't be an issue. and it'll take whatever time it takes to repair + 3 days to ship back.

but they ask permission (normally) to replace it with an x1a. but they didn't with mine, and lied about it. idk. repairs through SE are a hassle and a half, finally after.. 7? times of me sending it in.. I got my original handset back almost repaired.. it has LCD bleeding (I'm assuming from UPS squishing it while they held it over the weekend) which has happened twice now.. but at this point I'm just so fed up with it all I'm keeping it.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothal3v3l:
oh wow. yeah this is a problem that should be dealt with immeadiatly. also another question i have is witht hese complaints about the replacement phones. People are stating they have pts labeled on them and they look phoney? is that the phone or just the barcode that looks questionable? and with those of you that sent in ur phone repeated amounts of times, did you ever request that sony reimburse you with your shipping fees? I mean 7 times is ridiculous and that money is coming out of your pocket. There should only be a need for one shipment
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibeQuint:
oh it was on their dime, if you have to send it in more than once they'll cover it.

and the replacement phones have a "pts label" because the phones are straight from where they are made. they put the stickers on their with the IMEI's and other stuff.. or they were made just for PTS electronics. but the unit's themselves are perfect and made with the new casings that don't crack as often and are much better. the only reason I got mine back instead of keeping the brand new one was because it was an x1a, instead of an x1i.

but there are 1000's and 1000's of other repairs that go by without a problem at all. I just got extremely unlucky but don't let that get you too worried.. for the most part SE is very helpful and the repair facility is top notch.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothal3v3l:
So my phone has reached pts electronics as of this morning. Just curious to know tho, what are the chances that i will be recieving a new x1 vs my original? i notice quite a few ppl have been given new devices
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sopdogg:
I just got my original device back today after almost a month. I hope you get yours back fast man! Good Luck.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothal3v3l:
oh God a month?! was the problem actually resolved?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothal3v3l:
So i just recieved my x1a replacement for the x1i i sent in for repair. I just want to sure that the replacement is in fact a new device. Im meeting with a seller tomorrow to discuss trading the "new" x1a for a new x1i so i wanted to be reassured that is was new since it didnt come with original boxing and what not.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emuneee:
I just sent mine(X1a) in for cracks, bad front facing video camera, and non-functioning touch screen when the keyboard is open. Hopefully I can get a new X1a. Then I may just sell it and save for an X2. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] frozenbutt:
I have entries in my contacts as follows

555-555-1212pp1pp456789

Dial the number and then get through the system to get info. I programmed this in the contact list same as I had in my P4000 but I find that the last 6 digits dialed are so fast that the system cannot get them all and it craps out.

Is there any way to slow down the dtmf tones when it dials out???

Thanks

Hello, i installed HARD SPL to my HTC Touch Pro

when the installation was 100% completed

and my mobile automaticly Shut down

but i cant start my HTC Touch pro anymore

when i try to start the RUU again, it cant detect my HTC

because my pc cant find the HTC anymore

when i try to charge battery, thats doesnt work

can sameone please help me ?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
Have you tried soft and/or hard resetting? This is a bit bothering, though. You're not using a sprint or verizon (cdma) touch pro with the 1.90 Olinex hard spl, are you? If so, you may be s.o.l. My only advice in that case would be to try to flash the cdma hard spl.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] atjee:
Hello,

i have a HTC Touch Pro,

i used Olinex HARD SPL

but how can i hard reset ?

i cant start my phone
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
HTC Touch pro from where, though? What carrier, or did you buy it directly from HTC? This is important. And which hard spl? There are dozens of them. Exactly what was the #, and where did you get it?

To hard reset, press and hold down the volume down button and the OK (d-pad) button. Keep holding them down and then quickly soft reset with the stylus. Let the first two buttons go when the tri-color screen appears.

Just a tip: if you don't know how to hard reset yet, you shouldn't be modifying the firmware of your ppc.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] atjee:
i used ''Raphael_VZW_HSPL_035''

i purchased my mobile from ''Hi Mobile'' http://www.hi.nl (Dutch Provider)

edit: hard reset is not working
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
Well, that hard spl is for cdma phones; and the VZW makes me think that it is specifically for Verizon phones, which is not good for you. My Dutch isn't very good, but I suspect that your phone is GSM because: 1. Most non-US phones are GSM 2. The only thing I understand on that web-page is "Hi Sim-only." Sim cards are used in GSM phones. Does your phone have a sim card? If so, then you flashed the wrong hard spl and there's a very good chance the phone is toast. My only recommendation is to download the proper hard spl (1.90.Olinex). See if you can get your phone into bootloader. Do so by pressing and holding Volume Down and then soft resetting (don't hold the soft reset down; just push it in quickly like normal). Continue to hold volume down until the tri-color screen appears, IF it appears. If it does, then connect your phone to your pc with a usb cable, say a prayer, and flash the new hard spl.

If you can't get into bootloader, then your phone is dead for good. You can try to return it, or if you want, you can donate it to one of the techs on the forum who experiments with JTAG cables. JTAG'ing will be the only way to fix the phone if you can't get it into bootloader, but it's an extreme long-shot.

Edit: This is from cmonex at ppcgeeks, where I guess you got the hard spl package:

If cmonex says it's a brick, then it's a brick. Don't knock yourself out trying to fix it if your phone is not cdma.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] atjee:
i think my phone is dead =(

im gonna buy a HTC Touch Pro 2 then
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] atjee:
is there a another option , like flashing your bricked phone with a memmory card

something like like PSP wit Pro Duo card
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
You need to be able to access bootloader to flash off your memory card (vol. down + soft reset). That's the real killer with flashing the wrong hard spl-now you have a bad bootloader that can't be over-written. Your only hope would be to flash the 1.90.0linex hard spl, which can only be done over active sync (you could do this if you first went into bootloader). But again, since you can't get into bootloader, you're screwed. I mean, yeah, you might as well fool around, trying to get the proper hard spl on there (or even try flashing a full, stock rom). You're not going to make anything worse at this point. But I seriously doubt you're going to recover your device.

Seriously, there's a guy in the Diamond forum who's working on jtag'ing diamonds. It's complicated as hell, but maybe you could sell him your phone for 20 bucks. Just do a search on 'jtag' in that forum and you'll find him. Unless you can get a warrantee replacement somehow, your phone's only going to be good for experimenting or maybe spare parts.

Edit: here's the thread on jtag'ing a Diamond. You may want to pm the thread-starter and ask for advice, if he has any.

Here's another thread on fixing HTC phones. You might be able to sell your phone to the thread-starter to use for spare parts.

Not possible?

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Trig0r:
Looking for something thats as stable as can be.

Prefer 6.5 over 6.1

Prefer Manila with the programs tab.

Want 4 wide programs tab.

Dont want loads of tools that I wont use, I'll struggle to fill all of the program tab buttons as it is.

Prefer the older style File Manager where you get the device drop down instead of the tree drop down.

What are my options?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mtcerio:
I would say Miri WM6.5 Premium V26.2 meets all your requirements!

Give it a try!

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] beamnhi:
:eek: You are ordering a ROM for only YOU :eek: So, send your request to HTC or SO in this forum and make a big payment :p

Anyway, flash V26 of Miri and do tweaks at your own, You would be happy without any payment :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Parg:
No, he's asking which ROM fits his requirements. He's not asking to MAKE such a ROM for hin.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Basically your asking which rom is best for you, well only you can answer that. Best advice would be to try a few yourself and make your own conclusion

Hi,

I like the Fuze but the phone incoming and outgoing is lacking compared to the Blackberry I was using. The ear piece volume, even after applying all the tweaks is still a bit low and just plan bad sounding.

Can anyone using the X1 tell me how the phone sounds? If you used a Fuze and could compare, that would be great.

hi, does anyone know how to install the better keyboard (htc-ime) on a rogers branded, non-rooted htc magic? i have read the other thread in this forum that discusses installing the keyboard on the t-mo mytouch3g but it will not work on my rogers version. any help would be appreciated.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ClintonH:
So you tried to install with Linda file manager as well as Appsmanager and it failed? Why not just root and install would be easy? You can always go back if you do a nandroid backup.

Clinton
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] hondaguy:
Yes, I tried both apps and followed the steps carefully.

The reason I have not rooted yet is because I know from past experience that once you flash the rom you are constantly looking for a better rom, lol! I do want to flash to the hero rom, though
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ztringz:
LOL. Tell me about it :D And yes, I also have a Rogers branded non-rooted phone. I think I'm done playing with the original android, but I'm scared to root just for the same addiction reasons :P. Ah well. Here's to dedicating hours of wasted time...

P.S. Does rooting open up the paid apps market? And how does the market work? Is it a pre-registered card/google checkout? Or is it a cost thats supposed to get added to your bill? In which case it wouldn't work on Rogers anyways.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ClintonH:
Once rooted you install market enabler and you have access to everything in the market. Paid apps are through cc not in your mothly bill.

I've got opera 9.7 installed on my card, but in the 'Profiles' folder there is a file called "OPERA6.ADR" that appears to be the favorites. There's also a file called "COOKIES4.DAT" that stores cookies, and in the 'Secure' folder you'll find a file called "WAND.DAT" that has your login info.

I don't understand why people do so...

What's wrong with the default ROM that the device was released on? I'm new to all this and I want to know what's so hot about flashing to a new ROM? Is it basically just a different theme for the device? Or is it specific applications that you need/want because it's cool to have?

Someone let me know what's so good about it because from reading the forum all of this stuff is confusing! HDSPL, SSPL and all that...huh??? Lol

I'm new to all of this and I just want some information because I'm looking forward to getting the new TP2 for T-Mobile. Maybe if I get a better idea why you guys do it and how do you do it, I can learn and do these myself when I get my TP2.

Thanks guys!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] orb3000:
Well

On my experience cooked ROM´s by our great chefs here are always much better than the custom ROM´s

They include stuff/apps/ etc. that normally is not included by default.

Actually if this site with their great chefs wouldn´t exist WM OS would be bad as hell!

So the best way is to read the Wiki to understand all the terms and procedures and then try one cooked ROM by yourself, you won´t regret!!

I think that for tp2 there is not yet any cooked ROM, but sure they will apear soon! (if not already :) )
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] galaxys:
Orb is correct :cool: check out the Rom section and read the "stickies" for further flashing details ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] HeavyComponent:
Aight cool, thanks for the replies guys.

I think WM still would be great without chefs doing what they do. I mean WM6.5 looks great and WM6.1 is good. Yeah the older WM was horrible! Lol

I will probably get a different ROM only for apps because WM6.5 looks great and should run great like I said. Other then that I'm not interested really!

so im having some hardware problems with my phone so i need to take it in to sprint. but heres my deal, few months i downloaded some crappy rom (called krystal v5) that i ended up hating and only kept it for a day, now im using nfsfans 6.5 rom and i like that. the problem is when i downloaded that "krystal" rom it put a "krystal" splash on my phone when it starts. after numerous rom flashes that krystal splash still shows on start up.

now my plan was to reload the stock rom to get it serviced but i dont think that this will get rid of that splash. can someone help me get the original one back? its the very first splash screen.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fabrijack:

here is the one for Cellular South Phones, it is just the HTC logo. Not sure if Sprint uses something special. Load it then load the stock sprint rom.

nfsfan's roms don't replace splash screens, that's why after multiple flashing with it, the bootscreen still there.

when you flash with stock rom, the original splash screens will be back ;)

Is it just me this happens to or do others have this problem.

When I restore my data after a ROM flash using PPCPimBackup, the text messages in the 'threaded' view type are not ordered correctly for each contact. instead of being ordered by time and date, it puts all of their messages first and then puts all of my sent messages.

(the threaded messaging acts normal for any new text messages, its only the restored ones which this happens to)
[HTC Vox] birdibird:
did you restart the phone? in my experience it is needed after a restore.
[HTC Vox] syimi:
working

Okay just flashed my ROM to v2.2 and this time when i did the restore its worked fine.

at first it didnt have any inbox threads then they started to appear after a restart, it sorted all the incoming messages into date order but this time it didnt show any of my sent texts in the threads. so after another restart and a 30min wait for it to put my sent texts into the right place its all sorted :D

i guess iv got a few too many texts for WM to handle!
[G1 Android Development] nobodyimportant:
I saw in the SDK this permission for apps to request:

Our current model with superuser whitelist is not very secure because a malicious person could bundle their own su binary and circumvent the restrictions. It would seem that having our custom roms run in test mode would provide a great solution: using Android's own permission/security model for apps to run as root. This should force all apps to visibly request root permissions at install time.
[G1 Android Development] stellarman:
I am in favor of anything that will improve the security of my phone. It concerns me that anyone who knows what they are doing can so easily boot into recovery mode on my phone, wipe and flash any ROM they want. Granted, they would not have access to my information if the wipe and flash. But, it makes it trivially simple to hijack my phone. I would like to have some password protection for Recovery and Fastboot.
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
i am by no means a dev, but it seems to me that this probably just has to do with the adp devices

what's a adp device? and explain how they could possibly do this again?
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:

[G1 Android Development] nickL0V3:
well, technically, if we have root, dont have an "ADP" device?

when I do a fresh install, it says welcome to Android Developer Phone 1 (in most ROMs)
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
the adp device was a specific phone release for developers to be used with the sdk.
[G1 Android Development] nickL0V3:
I know that, but the hardware is the same as ours (they just get the awesome battery cover)
[G1 Android Development] savethechicken:
Most roms especially cyanogen Roms are based on SDK/ADP1 directly and thus making our devices recognizable as ADP Devices.
[G1 Android Development] farmatito:
Simple solution could be to restore the original su binary at boot.

1) keep a copy in the boot image ramdisk

2) scan the path at boot for su

3) compare md5sum with the original

4) delete if md5sum is different

5) restore original trusted su

and also just for paranoia:

6) scan system for setuid binaries and report to the user
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
This has NOTHING to do with ADP1. Test mode is just that... TEST MODE, i.e. diagnostics and repair. Probably needs to be plugged into a test station that authenticates using some manufacturer diagnostic keys. I really doubt that it would be a simple matter of requesting root permissions as this would be too easy to abuse.

And to the OP: No, you can't just bundle an 'su' binary and run it. The binary has to be owned and setuid as root in order for it to actually get root permissions. There is nothing magical about the su binary -- it is just 'sh' renamed as 'su', chown'd as root, and chmod 4755. A regular user can NOT chown root. Only root can chown root. Note that the su binary that works with the root app is modified such that it will terminate if the root app doesn't grant root permission. For all these reasons, su+rootapp is fairly secure. Not against someone unauthorized getting their hands on the device, but against some malevolent app taking root and running amok.
[G1 Android Development] cal3thousand:
Thanks for clearing that up.

The idea posted earlier about recovery menu password should be lofted at Cyanogen (or anyone willing to take that on). Should we make a thread for it?
