[XPERIA X1 General] mbernstein:
Very good points. But reviews are good in the sense that these people who have access to many phones. They can compare performance etc. People like me who have to buy in the dark and can not return phone (in Brazil the phones are too expansive and get here 1 year later if they ever get here, so I buy my phones in trips to the US), need the more comments they can get. Another important point is, they take pictures in similar places and similar conditions so you can compare better photos performance. In this case the X2 performs very well.

I have a Kaiser and would be OK with some lag, etc. I rarely watch videos on my PPC (although with a screen the size of the HD2 it could change a little), so X2 could be fine with that. Other areas will be similar or slightly better than my Kaiser. But then, I bought my Kaiser more than 2 years ago. Do I still want (deserve :) ) to get these lags??

But now, my main concern is that support and development from SE seems to be soooo erratic for the X2. These delays and never officially released... They can't even update their UK page! It is still "expected Jan 10". From what I saw, WM 6.5.3 seems to be a real good update. Will they give it to us? Too many questions, too much confusion... And this not a 300 bucks machine. If it were I would just buy it and see, but it is not. Thus I'm less and less excited by it, despite its many attractives: hardware keyboard, good camera, size (screen could be a little larger, but it is good as it is), some hardware keys... Pity (for me, of course).
[XPERIA X1 General] ring-bearer:
mb'

If I were you, I'd seriously think about getting an X1 and saving $400. All-in-all, X1 is a very solid phone. The camera is actually excellent except for low-light indoor conditions, something I don't think the X2 fixes. I flashed williyung's WM 6.5.3 and it's very nice - just like a new WM phone. The lags aren't bad at all. I've had a few repair issues but I guess most phones have that? Otherwise, if you are going to spend $800, get an HD2 or maybe hold out for a phone upgradeable to WM7. When it comes out, bet many of us will be anxious to get it!

Just my random 2 cents!
[XPERIA X1 General] mbernstein:
Hey, thanks. Yeah, I'm 90% going on the route of the HD2. Just coming to terms of lack of HD Keyboard and a little too big size, but...

I actually think the X1 is pretty much the same for me comparing to my Kaiser, just a little bit better in few things. I would keep my good old Kaiser. I think its screen too small, kind of too flashy looking, and I never had any problem whatsoever with my Kaiser and many people report these built problems with the X1... Not for me, but thanks for the tip anyway. Appreciated.
[XPERIA X1 General] doministry:
The ONLY alternative I've seen around I'd think of

is HTC Trophy.

HD2 is a very powerful machine.

So sad it's disqualified for me

with so many lacks.
[XPERIA X1 General] ring-bearer:
Yeah, lack of HW keyboard, resistive screen, and stylus are hard for me to get past. I think I could get used to them, but might be better to wait.
[XPERIA X1 General] doministry:
I would definitely wait.

I mean the capact. screen and lack of keyboard would drive me nuts.

Even if the screen is gorgeous and processor powerful...
[XPERIA X1 General] hofo_mofo:
Man that's a nice device...however HTC is starting to piss me off (although I still love them)

Why can't they make phones like the Kaiser when it comes down to the 3G bands...it's usually 900/2100 and then some variants depending on network request.

What I am looking for is 3G 850/1900/2100, or even 900/1900/2100 (1700 right now, for me that is, is not a priority). Very few HTC devices have it, oh well. Anyways, I am very happy with my X1 :)
[XPERIA X1 General] ring-bearer:
Won't the Trophy have a capacitative screen? Otherwise, looks great. Always wondered why no one makes a candybar with a really big screen!

But don't you have to think that HTC will put out a WM7 touch pro3? That would be the one to wait for.
[XPERIA X1 General] doministry:
To be honest I really eagerly wait for WM7!

And - hope SE would make a device with it....

Trophy would be nice.

Capactive is crap but it has also trackball so no bad...

But to be honest - I still think of X2.
[XPERIA X1 General] Waco2:
Well, I was hesitant like all of you, but in the end got X2 the first day available (about two weeks ago) in our country. It's not such an improvement over X1, but in my opinion it's currently the best device with WM and QWERTY. Only that processor is quite a flaw. However, it's not just bigger screen, much better QWERTY, TV-OUT and all the other known stuff, but also probably the best volume rocker and camera shutter I ever had on a mobile device. Making sharp pictures with X2 is much easier than with X1. I might also mention the battery cover, whose opening is not a problem now.

On the whole, X2 removed all the small shortcomings, which you normally ignore, but when using X1 every day they really become a nuisance. I'm very satisfied, but X2's ROM is still quite slow even though not much buggy, so I'm impatiently awaiting an update. Yeah, not to forget, what sucks the most is the absence of Mass Storage mode for USB to PC, hope new ROM will have this feature...
[XPERIA X1 General] doministry:
Absence of Mass storage is a bummer

but than why on one of the reviews - GSMArena or Phonearena

they say it's there?!
[XPERIA X1 General] anothadave:
the mass storage is a bit annoying. but i installed the active sync program and it can all be accessed from there without too much fuss. i turned off all the automatic sync functions so now it operates very similar to the X1 usb to pc. just click on "explore phone" and click on memory card and thats it. so maybe thats what they used in the reviews.
[XPERIA X1 General] doministry:
Looks like no problem really.

However one of them precisely mentioned both ActiveSync and MassStorage...
[XPERIA X1 General] emuneee:
The issue with using activesync mode to transfer files to the memory card is its slow. All transfers go through the activesync service which slows transfers down greatly.

AFAIK you won't really have native access to the memory card via the Windows Explorer interface (ie. be able execute all commands like you would be able to in mass storage mode).

I don't understand how Sony ericsson managed to over look this functionality.
[XPERIA X1 General] anothadave:
yeh i would of prefered mass storage too. one less program on my pc. it definately seems slower but most of the time im just copying over mp3s or cab files. so thankfully not too bad. wouldnt like to see how long it would take to back up my 16gb memory card though!

i searched extensively to see if there was any kind of option to turn on mass storage and checked for any kind of driver so not sure how they managed to do it on the review. maybe they had a different firmware or made that part of the review up! they might of assumed it had mass storage same as X1...

reading this review..

http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_xperia_x2-review-443p7.php

"USB 2.0 connections are supported as well, through a microUSB port. When connected to a computer, the XPERIA X2 prompts you to select among ActiveSync, Mass Storage or Modem mode."

my phone doesnt do that! no mention of activesync or modem mode either. just connects to the pc....
[XPERIA X1 General] doministry:
http://xperiancers.com/

Looks like they officially announce firmware plans

regarding X2 and it looks good.

So X2 will get WM 6.5.2 and than 6.5.3.

Yes.
[XPERIA X1 General] emuneee:
I'm glad SE learned from the mistakes of the X1. :)
[XPERIA X1 General] mbernstein:
Good. But now I've ordered a HD2.... :( or :) I'll see. But is great for X2 owners.
[XPERIA X1 General] Waco2:
Good about the updates, but this means just 2 new firmwares, no? Well, if they manage to get rid of all the bugs and it will have decent speed then it wouldn't bother me so much.
[Nexus One General] fatboyhk:
I use a BT handfree, but sometimes I may want to answer a call using the phone itself.

If I slide to answer, I don't expect the phone to transfer the call to my handfree. It has been working in this way for all the phones I used previously

However, N1 will still transfer the call to my handfree in this situation....Any solution? (other than pressing the bluetooth soft button on screen)
[Nexus One General] wmm:
That was what I was going to suggest. One additional button-press doesn't strike me as terribly burdensome.

Anyhow, the way it works makes sense to me. If I have a bluetooth headset stuck in my ear, chances are I'm going to want to use it for the call, even if I answered the call using the slide just because I picked up the phone to see who was calling and slid to answer while I had the phone in hand rather than using the button on the bluetooth device.
[Nexus One General] trinode:
I Have been driven nuts by this for ages, to me the nexus one does it right.

My car handsfree answers after 4 rings, if I really didn't want to miss the call I'd press on the phone to answer, only then to panic when I couldn't hear them and then have to use speakerphone and turn off the radio manually and then have a really difficult conversation.

now, if the handsfree is connected it's always used.... I think there is a privacy function (that's what it's called on some other phones anyway) which will switch the call to the handset.

- Anthony
[Nexus One General] fatboyhk:
lol i don't know what you guys are smoking.... but it is up to personal preference i guess.

It would be better if we have an option for that so everyone will be happy
[HD2 General] DanMar:
I just got an HD2 2 days ago and enjoying it so far.

Except I have been finding that during most phone calls I hear a slight distortion in voices and have had to lower the volume about 2 steps to get it to stop. Anyone else finding this?
[HD2 General] firaX:
common issue, have this too :/. Speaker is just kind of bad. I find that even the lowest setting is loud enough, though!
[HD2 General] CRO_Misho:
Have you installed the latest ROM from HTC site?

Bad sound in the speaker freaked me out when I bought it, especially after using crystal-clear sounding Touch HD.

But After installing the latest ROM, it was gone.

It was not the distorsion, though, more like noise/static.
[HD2 General] deyanp:
Which ROM did you have when you had the problem? And which ROM do you have now - 1.66?

Was the noise/static you refer to there during the whole duration of the phone call or only on some words (change of intonation of higher frequencies) while the other person was speaking?
[HD2 General] CRO_Misho:
Well, I have the latest ROM I found on the HTC/europe site. 1.48.479.1 (71294) WWE.

And I don't know which version was when I bought it.

The noise was during the whole duration of the call.
[HD2 General] DanMar:
Hi,

I found that the distortion/static was in certain spoken words. I have the base ROM (1.49.71528) however the dang Australia HTC site is only showing 1 update with no ROM update downloads...shame the AU site has to be so behind the rest of the world with some showing more than 3 updates.

My HD2 is set to Telstra so I suppose I need to wait for a locally programmed ROM...funny how a ROM update can fix a hardware fault!
[HD2 General] deyanp:
I also have slight distortion on some words only during phone conversations ... Did you really manage to stop the distortions by lowering the volume?? Even if I lower the volume they are still there ...
[HD2 General] DanMar:
I lowered volume 2 steps & it got a bit better...I am really looking forward to an AU 1.6x new ROM! Wonder how long to wait???
[HD2 General] Batas:
Another one here with bad sound quality during calls. Some words saturate the speaker (or it seems like it).
[HD2 General] dotexe:
did u tried this ?

http://contactus.europe.htc.com/Dow...yID=1&FileName=LEO_volume_hotfix_20091215.zip

works with coocked roms
[HD2 General] snerkler:
I had this issue. There is a registry tweak for this and it works a treat. I can't remember what it was though. I'll do some research and come back to you.

I've just upgraded to the latest ROM 1.66.405.2 and haven't made a call yet to see if this ROM has fixed the issue, or whether I need to go back and do the registry tweak again.
[HD2 General] snerkler:
Here's the registry tweak. Worked flawlessly for me :)

You can find a reg edit here to try: HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\inCall AND InCall2

Change the value of InitVol to "2" in both inCall and inCall2
[HD2 General] Starfury:
Where is this update from please?
[HD2 General] dotexe:
htc support i think..
[HD2 General] romac:
I have that exact problem. I have sent my phone back for a replacement and the problem was still there, I have flashed several ROMs and the problem is still there. I am now on the latest ROM and it's still there. Because it only on some calls and only on some voices with a higher frequency I am trying to live with it.
[HD2 General] Starfury:
Which country's site as its not on Europe or UK site...
[HD2 General] dotexe:
http://contactus.europe.htc.com/Down...x_20091215.zip
[HD2 General] Primozek:
Registry tweak doesn't work on my HD2,bad sound still here:(
[HD2 General] fuorionda:
on mine i have same problem with earphones so i think it's not an issue related to speaker ;)
[HD2 General] Atomzk:
Doesn't work at all. Crackling noise is still there when the other party speaks during a phone conversation.
[HD2 General] snerkler:
That's strange, I've just tested mine out this lunchtime, and after the ROM update my phone started distorting again during calls. Did the registry tweak again that I just posted and it's working great.
[HD2 General] DanMar:
The update won't install on my AU HD2. When attempting to open LEO_007759 I get "This hotfix is not compatible with your device".

At least the AU HTC site has just released the SMS fix. Shame no 1.6x ROM update - observing revision history the 1.4x is substantially older and it would be nice to have the fixes sometime soon!
[HD2 General] dotexe:
its about this

HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\inCall AND InCall2

Change the value of InitVol to "2" in both inCall and inCall2
[HD2 General] DanMar:
Got tired of waiting for Telstra & HTC Australia to release new ROM so I have finally gotten around to doing some regedit...incall was set to 2 and incall2 was set to 5 - changing it to 2 has resolved the issue for me.

I have noticed for 2 recent models HTC AU was approx 3-4 weeks behind the Singapore ROM updates - my estimate is in 1-2 weeks AU site should have new ROM (unless Telstra slow down the process with their customizations as they have exclusive rights to HD2 until March...)
[HD2 General] auximinies:
Didn't work for me either. Have just changed InCallFeedback InItVol from 4 to 2 - lets see what that does.
[HD2 General] jonbaker76:
I get this also, thought the speaker was naff, but then noticed it does it in earphones, kind of a relief that it's software related then.

Let's try this reg tweak you speak off.... will report back once i've had a few calls....

i'm on 1.4
[HD2 General] zipolly:
sound distortion

After many emails back and forth to htc support i eventually rang them tonight and explained the problem with the sound distortion in great detail and was gleefully told by the person on the other end of the phone that they have not come across or been made aware of this problem before !!!!!!!!!!!!! .

So my phone is now being picked up tomorrow and will be repaired by htc to solve this problem ???????? . Obviously i am very sceptical as many people on here have the same problem so i am intrigued as to what they plan on doing to my phone. Also i mentioned the pink spot on the camera pics and she said they would sort that out too :o) .

I will keep you posted as to the outcome of the whole saga.
[HD2 General] jonbaker76:
still getting this :mad:
[HD2 General] zipolly:
sound quality

Well recieved my phone back from htc and according to the paperwork they replaced the speaker !! Absolutley no difference it still pops and crackles its a joke really as i also asked if they could sort out the pink cast to the photos it takes, but a week later and i may as well of just locked my phone in a cupboard for 7 days !!!!! .

And htc still say that as far as they are concerned there is no issue with sound quality on this phone as far as they are aware :mad:

I can't find it either but I definitely remember someone asking that question and someone saying that the snapdragon clock speed varies itself hence its low power consumption.

Yeah this has definatley been talked about before, The TG01 has a soft key to change the CPU speed for battery consuption, A bit like the WIFI setting on all HTC devices.

Don't really see the point in reducing it down though, will only give you like an extra hour of battery life and sense wil probably become unsuable never mind having multiple programs open.....
