Do you still have this issue? Currently busy re-working the kitchen for multi device (X1 and D2) and VM optimization for iGo8 and will look into that if I have time later. BTW, you have time create a 800x800 bootscreen for Topaz?

salmonsushi, I think this is the correct system behavior. HTC devices (no sure other OEM will do the same but I remember either Asus or Eten don't) don't put the system to suspend mode if headphone is connected (wired/a2dp) so that music player still runs in the background. And play/pause button will wake the device, but not FF/FR.

There is a workaround if you use Core-player, or TCPMP with A2DP plugin. Config a hardware/keyboard button to toggle screen. Screen still will wake up but the program will turn off the screen immediately.

BTW, how much is your MW600 as my DS-205's battery is dead after a year? Sound quality ok on X1?

JihaZafik, Skype is a international version that display language according to yr system setting. U probably wrongly use a incorrect locate.

testlord, probably not since I don't use it.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] biernes_atrece:
yup. im seeing grey background everytime i load a new theme.

but take your time, no big deal.

multi device? hmmm.. sounds interesting.

im still on vacation. will be back 1st week of april.

ill see what i can do with the bootscreen.

can you give me some ideas?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] salmonsushi:
However, surprisingly my i-tech bluetooth headset doesn't wake up the device for play/pause? but MW600 on my other phones doesn't wake it up too? If I have to use coreplayer, that means i have to give up both HTC music player and the SE media xpress panel, which i prefer over core-player. There isn't any registry tweak that can resolve this problem?

Sound quality is definitely better than those garbage itech products. I am not sure whether it is better than DS-205, but it is not absolutely perfect coz i can still hear some differences between plugging in directly and using mw600. However, there are some other issues that im waiting for SE support to reply:

1. In youtube videos, people's mw600 are able to display time. I can't find any settings to change time, nothing about it in the manual, and i assume it's signal from phone. And obviously X1 somehow didn't send mw600 the time signal. So no time on mw600.

2. Unable to display song name from any player (100% not chinese, but not even the ENGLISH ones) or is it just because of the custom rom?

3. Occasional music freeze for a second, happen more often when you previously launched heaps of program. Better if you soft reset it. I suppose either due to not enough ram/cache?

4. Wakes up device whenever pause/play is pressed even if you are not running any media player.... it's basically a remote power button, which i hate.

5. Voice control doesn't work, but I don't think i have any voice control software installed anyway. However even if i did, i doubt it will be compatible since WM tend to screw up everything. I reckon mw600 is more of design for symbian because videos shows that they work flawlessly. not sure about X10 and i bet there will be glitches with it paired to androld.

Price is surprisingly cheap in the sense that everyone guessed it would be around 100-200, but it turns out to be 99 Retail price, and I bought it for 70 online.

However, I don't even know why they put it as compatible with X1 on SE website if it can't display time, music name, and wake up device whenever play/pause is pressed. Those are the only major issues I have, if they are resolved then this will definitely be an excellent headset for X1

As to "Config a hardware/keyboard button to toggle screen" do you mean select "Blank Screen" in Core player options? Once selected, whenever I press ANY button on mw600 it turns off the screen. However it doesn't work if core player is minimised. And hardware buttons such as "OK" will wake up the device too. If you mean setting a hot key, I can't find an option as toggle screen. I tried toggle view but it doesn't prevent x1 from waking up..
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
I am not aware if any other tricks that can stop the screen from turning on.

I owned MANY A2DP devices (except this one. Tried, works excellent except it's way too $$$ to me) and yes, i-tech (Clip-D radio) is crap and by far the worst music quality.

I bet quality of all Sony's portable A2DP the same based on my exp with 205/220/970/980, which is among the best. Except their car kit unit 1500/3000 which is so so, and that's why I brought the JVC unit instead. So I guess MW600 is good too.

For 1 & 2, Sony probably has some private protocol which is non A2DP/AVRCP standard to make it works. So I don't think it will on any other non Sony devices by default. Maybe try the developers over there.

3. Probably too many background process. Open Memmaid and watch your CPU usage.

4. Happened on all my device and I think it's normal.

5. I remember it was working with Cyberon VC (probably MS VC) if I patched the BT driver (don't remember if I applied the patch on V5 or not).
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] salmonsushi:
Just tried smart watch but it doesn't seem to be compatible (tried all possible device settings and i just get a massive error/ connection timeout) Looks like just gota wait for those developer to add MW600 into the list = / But if it works it will be extremely powerful

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] salmonsushi:
I have just contacted SE Australia Support and they jsut asked me to perform a phone update

Is it SE just bs-ing as usual without reading my mail, or is it suggesting that there is, or will be a update for X1 rom to make it support all those missing features with MW600?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] harveydent:
Been using the Lite ROM for a week now. Fast and no crashes or bugs. Thanks Jack!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
I am currently looking into extendir. Got it working and see some speed gain over files system index. If everything looks good, it would be V6 and I just need to release a very lite rom with packages people freely installed their own.

But I am a bit concern if this trick will hurt available virtual memory (don't be confuse with available memory in system > settings > memory) since it does not take advantage of 6.5's extra slots for module, which is very important for big apps like Manila + iGo8 TTS to working concurrently.

human75, I am currently busy and look into those problem later.

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] human75:
hi jack!

i found another bug on your rom.When i am typing a SMS it randomly inserts dots an double letters.like double nn,double ss etc...It`s there any fix for this ?could you please fix this in V6.it is really annoying.thanks a lot
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Neural666:
Hi, human75!

Are you sure it's not a keyboard problem? There's a chronic problem with X1 keyboards going bad. Mine started with double 'n''s then progressed to M, ., space, etc. All the letters around the "n" key basically went bad. It took a trip to the service center to fix.

Search the other areas of the X1 forums for more cases of this.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] salmonsushi:
Yup, me too. Moreover the order of sms on touchflo gets VERY mixed up. sometimes it goes to the top, some times it goes to the bottom. Certain sms cannot be displayed for some reason (i.e. i can see it in the tab, but when i click on it, it gives me a blank sms). Moreover there's no like in start menu to go to the original message tool.

Lastly, why does my WIFI randomly turns on? It's not that it automatically turns on when im trying to access the internet. Like if I used opera/msn/weather when there's no internet connection, it will just say failed to connect and leave WIFI as off. but occasionally when I wake up the device or just listening to music, wifi suddenly turns on and drain a hack of my battery. So far I found nothing in options that may lead to this. Searches show heaps of people seeking solution as to automatically turning off wifi than having such issue.

hi to the people out there i'm looking for the newset coolest roms i want to update to my phone to a new rom but i'm not sure what is out there now but i do want the newest version of windows mobile 6.5 and sense 2.5 who has it on their rom send me a link or post it. oh my phone is cdma and verizon htc touch pro.
[Touch Pro CDMA] Giggles 312:
NFS FTW!

well vzw tp suck. no ram :( so sense 2.5 is kinda a no go unless you want lag. but wm 6.5 is a def yes. check out NFSFAN its got sense 2.1.

His roms are blazingly fast, and wicked (boston accent :p) stable. I've been using it for at least a month now.

here are da links (two different builds one is the older build with menu at top and the other at the bottom.) i prefer the top menu one cause i dont like the bottom one

i got sense 2.5 1921 running fine on the touch pro but keep it coming people and ill check out your sugguestion and no i'm not being lazy i'm just making sure i don't brick my phone that why i gave all the info
[Touch Pro CDMA] dewild1:
I have not tried this one yet, but, and sense sucks in my opinion. Giggles, are you one a TP V or TP S? The rom you recommend has a 16 meg page pool! I am stuck with 4 TP V and I have listened to my wife and kids ***** for over a year about them. I always set my page pool to 6 meg but even so, every wm6.5 and 6.1 with any version + sense or any slider app has made the phone almost useless.

I used SSK 3.0 Touch Pro Visual Kitchen - Preview 2 and I loaded the second version of 6.1 and then I unchecked anything sense or icon or extra and my phone is smoking fast now. After the easy GUI built the ROM, I set the pagepool to 6 and flashed.

I use http://pocketmax.net/phoneAlarm.html and although I have not fully tested it nor set it up all the way, I finally have a "sense" lol of hope. I do not need all them fancy things. Plus i think http://pocketmax.net/phoneAlarm.html does more and it does weather with certain skins.

I mean ****, we are stuck with low memory, and with any sense stuff or slider this or that, my family and I could not answer the damn phone half the time.
[Touch Pro CDMA] slave13:
i have the tp verizon i mentioned that do you know ho to use the page pool thing is it the higher the better or the other way around. and since the touch pro has some much on board ram and rom i figured if i can figure out how to use it i can set or make a rom to use as much of the ram and rom that i can
[Touch Pro CDMA] dewild1:
I would not set it above 6 megs fot he TP V. It has limited about of ram.
[Touch Pro CDMA] slave13:
ya but the pro has more ram and rom then diamond i know from the manual on htc website it has 512 and 192 or is it 256 but then again the service manual said 288 i gonna just do a test and see what happens.
[Touch Pro CDMA] Giggles 312:
i gotta verizon touch pro. :(

NFSFAN's rom works wonderfully on my tp with 16mb pagepool (its prob cause i dont use sense) titanium looks just like the zune os, and me likey the zune :D

... but yeah i don't think i mentioned that i hate sense/manila.

um yah, sorry bout that XD.

NFSFAN running just titanium has about 61% used at startup with 16mb pagepool. so yeah do some tweaking around with the pagepool and you'll find something you like.

Just a little tid-bit, i hate sense because its a RAM hog, and our vzw tp don't have lots of RAM so yeah, find a way to partition SD Card storage toward RAM and then we'll talk. :P
[Touch Pro CDMA] slave13:
hey i gonna do so experimenting and see what happend to see just how much i can save.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] rogershroed1991:
I've had a Touch Diamond and a Touch HD for awhile and the HD is having a lot of problems, I'm pretty much tired of it and of Windows Mobile, so I wanted to try something with Android and it seems like the Hero is the best bet (I might be wrong though, are there any better Android non-keyboard phones)?

How do you guys think I'll like it, going from a Touch HD to a Hero? I've been looking on ebay and it seems like new ones are about $500 which isn't bad. And I watched a video of the Sense UI and it looks a lot better than WM. The only things that I REALLY need are the weather (which I know the Hero has), a "notes" app where you can draw, and access to Tasks and Calendar from the home screen. And a decent keyboard for texting/emailing. And an easy way to backup contacts/tasks to your computer. If you all could let me know if the Hero has these features and if you think I'd like it, I'd appreciate it.

Also, does the 3G work with AT&T in the US? Do I need to look for a specific version? (with the HD you had to get a specific model number that would work with AT&T 3G because the standard HD didn't)

PS. My main complaint about WM is it's slow and somewhat buggy (about 10% of the time when I get incoming calls, it just freezes). Android doesn't have any ridiculous bugs like this, does it?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] gu1dry:
A) Actually the Nexus One is a better keyboard-less Android phone (it's also made by HTC but all the software is handled by Google).

B) The Hero & really any Android phone will do everything you are looking for, either with stock apps or apps from the Market.

C) 3G will work if you get a Telus Hero.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] defaria:
So much to say... I came from an HTC Touch Diamond on Sprint to the HTC Hero on Sprint also. One day my Touch Diamond's screen simply failed to turn on anymore and I needed a new phone quick. I bought the HTC Hero as "used" from the Sprint store for like $250. It also allowed me to be "off contract" so I could switch to the Nexus on another carrier if I wanted. As you may know Sprint's CDMA and I might want to go to GSM...

I, like you, don't like WinMo anymore - too unstable. So far Andriod's a lot more stable but we'll see how that goes.

As for backing up contacts and calendaring - dude! Just switch to Google. I have all my contacts as Google Contacts now and all my calendar stuff is on Google Calendar. There is no backing up of contacts and calendering nor syncing - it's all in the cloud and all already synced together. It becomes a no brainer! (Note I use Thunderbird and hook up Thunderbird to Google Calendar and Contacts too). I also use Google Voice not and things are really good.

If I had to do it all over again though I'd drop the HTC Sense UI. The widgets and all that are sexy and pretty but you can tire of such things quickly. My biggest complaint is that HTC had totally messed up the AVRCP Bluetooth Controls by stealing them for it's HTC Music thingy and that really blows.

If you are really into HTC stuff the HTC HD2 might be a better way for you to go though that's WinMo too. There was rumor of an HTC Dragon which would be the snapdragon chip running Android. Now that I'd go to. Also the Nexus One is a snapdragon based chip.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Aicis:
I bet you can get an app for drawing notes, but im not too sure about the results as it has capacitive touch screen (responds to finger, not pen)

It has weather app on it and you can get more of them from the market for free

It has an easy backup as well, but loads of people can not get it to work (im one of them)

You may also have a look at Acer liquid A1
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rogershroed1991:
Do you know if there's a different model number for it?

Can I import my current Outlook contacts into Google, or would I need to start from scratch?

That's a pretty big deal if there's no backup, lol. Also, does it have a decent Tasks app (to keep track of little reminders and things, not in a calendar)?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] gu1dry:
Export your contacts from Outlook, there should be an option under File, as an CSV. Log into Gmail>Contacts>Import.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] craig0r:
Yes, there is. The Euro Hero is (i think) the HERO100. The Telus Hero is HERO130.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rogershroed1991:
What's the screen resolution?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rogershroed1991:
I went ahead and bought one and I really like it so far. Android is so much faster than WM. And the smaller screen isn't really an issue, I barely even notice it. The only thing I prefer about WM is the multitasking, does anyone know if they're working on releasing a new version of Android with multitasking?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] xsirhc6x:
did you just ask that?

haha

welll

get your self a task manager from market

then youl see that you alreadya re multi tasking :)

[Hero, G2 Touch General] alias_neo:
From Xperia

I came from an Xperia running an optimized custom TouchFlo3D which made it essentially a TouchHD with a keyboard, and aside from the keyboard, I don't miss a single thing about the phone since switching to the hero. The hero is much smaller, things just work much nicer and it performs and looks beautiful (both UI and hardware).

I would definately recommend going to the hero and already have recommended it to several friends etc.

Nexus one shoul also be a good choice but I can't comment since I'v never used one.

All I can say is that my Hero is close to perfect and the only way it can get better for me will be when I can send files by Bluetooth in the next update (VCards in particular).
[Hero, G2 Touch General] foxmeister:
Erhhh, well, it already does multitask and has done so since the very first version.

Of course, the "future" of mobile phone OSes is no-multitasking anyway, judging by the fact that WinMo 7 doesn't have it allegedly!!!!! See here.

T-mobile version?

I also have a Diamond and am due an upgrade from T-mobile. The problem with the T-mobile Diamond was that the roms were miles behind the unbranded HTC ones.

Is the situation better with the Hero(G2) or is it best to debrand it?

Also, is the video recording still at the very low resolution it was in the original rom? I think it was 352 x 288
[Hero, G2 Touch General] foxmeister:
To be honest, whilst I think my Hero is great, there are better phones just around the corner. Of course, this is always going to be the case, but the Hero is now 6/7 months old now - if you upgrade now, I suspect you'll regret it in a couple of months time when something new pops up.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] rogershroed1991:

It's always better to have an unbranded rom. Does T-Mobile even have the Hero? I've only seen the CDMA one on Sprint. I bought an unlocked Telus one and it came with an unbranded rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Neo Cortex:
T-Mobile has the Hero in UK but it's called the G2 Touch. The rom is branded though
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rogershroed1991:

[Hero, G2 Touch General] Tone-Fu:
I've just traded my Hero in for a Nexus One, haven't got it yet but I'm anxiously awaiting it's arrival. :)

The Hero's a great little device though, and it weighs in at about £100GBP less than the Nexus. If you do get one, root it and slap one of the great custom ROM's on it though, it'll fly then. I used MoDaCo's custom ROM and it made the phone so much more stable!

Best of luck,

In T-Mobile ads for their HTC phones they say "with Google," does this just mean "running Android" or is there some extra Google feature that comes with the carrier branded ones?

Basically Google has a set of standards a manufacturer must adhere to in order to get the approved Google device branding. You can have sense ui and blur and still have the Google logo on your device. As long as they adhere to the rules Google sets. I honestly wish the rules were a bit more strict that way we wouldn't have to run custom roms to get our phones to do what we want. Props to the rom makers!
