[XPERIA X2 General] :
and until the upgrade nobody able to use that "thingy" supposed to be a "SMART Phone" or someting but this "phone" is far away from that i had one and used sorry tried to use and within 24 hours i give up completly....

even tried after reset stopped the customisation installer,i had no camera slide out keyboard etc. then upgrade it and tried again still the same i had no camera slide out keyboard etc ... dont care about the panel i use it on my x1 as win start menu there is not even a way to revert the "thingy" to the previous OS crap for you se it seems someone made a big mistake took out the design from HTC's hands....so fortunatelly we end up again in the same shues what we had with P990 before almost forget how much i like miss important calls because my "phone" freezing in my pocket :D probably that was my last se smart phone i spent money on it...
[XPERIA X2 General] spikegotti:
anyone else noticed the x2 and its panels were removed from SE website and playnow... can someone please upload the fish panel for the x2 please
[XPERIA X2 General] bazsikar:
I had it once but after removing SPB MS and LifeStyle it has gone. SlideView and TileWave was removed before, so I don't know if these altogether were the solution.
[XPERIA X2 General] AlesUa:
to Biges:

Oh, maybe Cinese calendar..
[XPERIA X2 General] Mongtt:
thanks so much

however, i still think that if we have to remove so many things from this phone (panel, tilewave, SPB mobile shell, slideview, etc.) then what the

hell is this phone ? just a WM phone with nothing and then why should we have spent so much money on a phone with nothing. you can get a WM phone made in china so cheap. so cheap that maybe X2 could worth five of them.

So um still trying to maintain my panels, slideview, mobile shell and trying to find a way to live with this phone as stable as possible.

i wonder it must be something related to the light sensor as well.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Exactly.

Why to purchase such device if you rip everything out of it?
[XPERIA X2 General] Biges:
:)

You are right.
[XPERIA X2 General] filip210189:
does anyone have an idea how to disable the annoying beep sound coming from outer speaker when the conversation is ended? or at least how to use inner speaker for it?
[XPERIA X2 General] gunawan-1:
almost no good comments appear ini this thread about x2. Damn... Is SE ever pay attention on this forum?

SE broke his own promise. MR2 on May. Which May? May 2010 or May be???

I am tired using this stupid phone. It' freeze when it has miscalled or sms. What is this phone actually? A phone or a brick???

Fortunately I have another phone in hand. a CDMA phone. I text everybody not to contact me via GSM. My X2 is sucks until no positive time before real upgrade. Friends.... What do you think about this case? I feel like damn fool guy being cheated by SE. I indent this phone for 1 month. And I found this phone not so special. and after upgrade it's worst. I never really use my X2 for communication. My heart is so hurt. Real hurt.

( sorry... not mean to offend some one. but I am very disapointed)
[XPERIA X2 General] sx1-doc:
they use the crapy msm7200 platform again , this cpu sucks for WVGA with 8mpx camera.

why they didnt use msm 7227 (cheaper the msm 7200) and its support gl 2.0 and its snappy at 600mhz ,god knows....

anyway i will never buy a underpowered device anymore.

X1 is underpowered ,X2 is more underpowered .

lool SE,same mistake twice?????
[XPERIA X2 General] caliban2:
as a last consequence it was YOU who made the mistake, by buying it.

qc 7200 underpowered? today definitely yes. but compare it to htc devices with the same hw and you'll see that there's far more possible with it than SE delivered with x1 & x2. it's about drivers. you can put diesel into a ferrari, but you can't complain afterwards... ;)
[XPERIA X2 General] gunawan-1:
I prefer X1 better. except the low volume so I can't hear the sound if there is a call in while driving motor cycle. and the bad camera. only those 2 things.

but X2, sucks.
[XPERIA X2 General] andre2:
Smart Phone just for Smart People, not good for Swart People..
[XPERIA X2 General] Avarell_Dalton:
As promised, my final comment on you:

You are a big ****ing moron... just that, no more, no less.

To the moderators, delete not just my post but the whole thread, there's nothing good with it, just evil starting with a subject line that's only purpose is to misguide people.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Calm down.
[XPERIA X2 General] mathiosn:
it's out on emma updating now....
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
So in few days for everybody...
[XPERIA X2 General] anothadave:
the X2 is a bit buggy but it still works better than the X1 i had! lol.
[XPERIA X2 General] Avarell_Dalton:
What is Emma uppdating? :confused:

How's Crete nowadays? Me and my wife decided today to go there this summer - again
[XPERIA X2 General] killer8nl:
Emma is the update app for service providers like repair shops etc.
[XPERIA X2 General] Avarell_Dalton:
Aha, thanks!
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
So funny....

My X1 is soooooooo good since Dec 2008.....

X2 is quite "unready" however gets better.

I hope the upgrade will sort performance issues.
[XPERIA X2 General] Biges:
I need the update badly.

Today I bought X2, played with it for a while, realized its screen has green hue, looks a bit plastic etc. ... then turned off auto-brightness. Turned it on again and - the screen is dead. It shows "boot screens", but that's all.

Guess flashing it anew is all I can do?
[XPERIA X2 General] alesmatusek:
Wait a few days. New ROM MR1 (R1B) will be available soon (couple days). English version is available on EMMA now (CZ version not)! So be patience...
[XPERIA X2 General] anothadave:
lol my X1 was in a terrible state by the end. when i first had it the bugs where horrendous. far worse than the X2. random crashes, notification lights not working, panels wouldnt load, the phone button would stop working, vibration feature only worked when it felt like (hmmm bit of deja vu here i think) nasty lag when typing, poor signal.

then after the updates most of the bugs where ironed out and it was a bit more stable. but then the hardware started to fail.. the hard keyboard was either too responsive or didnt work at all, then the screen would go black when i opened keyboard so i gave up on that completely, then the microphone stopped working so noone could hear me, the lacquer came off the back cover, random cracks appeared in the case, the battery would get so hot i could cook eggs on it. i practically had to keep the thing together with sticky tape and string in the end lol

but the strange thing was i still liked the damn thing and soldiered on with it. i liked the concept and the style, just it never delivered on the promise. the X2 initially seems to of sorted the hardware problems, now if they can only fix the silly little bugs and crashes...
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Lol such a different story.

I can't believe but my device has 17 months and is the best

SE smartphone I ever had.

Of course occasionally things happen here and there

but I wouldn't expect anything else from ANY software on this planet.

Now this one is close to perfect...

Really really reliable and overally a great professional companion to my

life.

I bought X2 also encouraged by X1 performance....

I think MR1 will improve a lot (besides radio!)
[XPERIA X2 General] mathiosn:
updated my X2 via emma last night, I have good news and bad news , video calling is now available. no radio (or at least I haven't found it yet) the device is still laggy,slow many features added like fast gps (quick gps in htc) I will report anything new i might find later on, but in general I am very dissapointed..... thought it would get way better.

I will stay with my HD2 for now...
[XPERIA X2 General] bazsikar:
FM radio is in SlideView media menu.
[XPERIA X2 General] Avarell_Dalton:
I'm downloading now!

Did a update search via Update service and it found new update so I'm downloading as we speak. Further info will follow.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Please write what's up!
[XPERIA X2 General] Avarell_Dalton:
Well I can't believe this is happening, I've tried this so many times the last week whithout messing it up and now I did. By mistake i disconnected the usb cable and now I can't start up or get it into upgrade mode. The display is blank, no charging lights lits up but it does vibrate when pushing power button.

I've tried to connect it for upgrade anyway but the computer doesn't recognize the phone even though it finds new hardware.

Soooo, if anyone could assist me in this, please feel free to do so, hard reset or whatever
[XPERIA X2 General] Bouvard:
I had the same problem. Try to take out battery for 4 mins. It helps me.
[XPERIA X2 General] fadi.b:
update in SEUS(Sony Ericsson Update Service) is now available for Xperia X2

size: 123.1 MB
[XPERIA X2 General] khakala:
i have problem to enter "boot loader" mode with my Xperia X2, so i can not update using Sony Ericsson Update Service, is that other way to do update ?
[XPERIA X2 General] Avarell_Dalton:
Thanks for that but it didn't help anything. Can't start normal or update mode and no indication of charging. The phone do vibrate at push power on, thats all. The battery gets normally warm when charge. Saw a solution from SE when phone gets unresponsive after update, charge the battery for at least half an hour cause update service is very power consuming and the phone can during that half hour be all blacked out.

So unless I come up with a hard reset solution I'll have to wait until after easter to get some help here in Sweden.

This must be karma thinking of how I behaved erlier in this thread. First I pushed my laptop to the floor (waving arms sleeping) tonight, a couple of hours later, the phone...
[XPERIA X2 General] anothadave:
from the support schedule on the blog post i got the impression that most of the bugs and performance issues where to be addressed in the second update in may (probably june goin by previous experience) so mayb not a good idea to have too high expectations on this first update.

but from reading other peoples experiences im a bit wary of downloading this update now :( or was that a seperate problem avarell_dalton?
[XPERIA X2 General] Avarell_Dalton:
I messed it up good on my own. Armrest on my chair grabbed the usb cable when turning. The phone got disconnected and fell to the floor and the battery fell off, in what order i cannot say. I guess this can be both a software issue as well as hardware.
[XPERIA X2 General] Bouvard:
When I totally discharge battery in my X2 in the past so It was impossible to start or hard restart the phone. After approximately a half an hour of charging the phone react against push power.

You have to read horoscoup befere you are thinkink about update ;o)
[XPERIA X2 General] mathiosn:
I have updated thousands of phones, never had a problem with any. but if you are not aware of the process DON'T DO IT LET SOMEONE MORE QUALIFIED WITH SKILLS TO DO IT, or don't blame sonyericsson that you ended up with a new shiny brick. read all the instructions and nothing will go wrong.
[XPERIA X2 General] Avarell_Dalton:
Speaking of horoscope, I can look to the stars now for a working X2 :D
[XPERIA X2 General] Toleot:
Just finished updating my X2 via SEUS. Still waiting for customization to finish. I will write soon about this new update. Hopefully those silly bugs were gone with this fix.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Update on SEUS?

AFAIK it's not out yet....
[XPERIA X2 General] Toleot:
I don't know if this is the MR1 release or not. I'm a noob. But last time i check (that's 2 days ago) in my SEUS application, it says that my X2 is up to date. And today it's confirming that I have a new update, 123.3 MB in size.

BTW, i'm in Indonesia (South East Asia)

Still setting up my X2.

Here's my device information after update:

Software version: R1BA023

Customization ID: 1231-7557

Customization version: R8A

Language region: GENERIC_SG

Content version: PA2

Software language: English (United States)

Radio SW version: 6.5.6026
[XPERIA X2 General] fadi.b:
There is a big problem when u change items appear on the Today screen from Windows Default to other items the prob is when you want to return to the Today menu from SlideView or some programs isn't go into enclaves and a static image and you want to open the phone and close it (view external keyboard) to return to Today :mad:

have fun with the new update

sorry for english
[XPERIA X2 General] bob2k4:
the MR1 update is available on SEUS now, HOWEVER I would be very careful before adding this update. So far I have noticed the following:

FM Radio is available in Slideview Media

Video Calling is available

Fast GPS is available and it is quick

Now to the bad things...

The notifications have STILL not been fixed, the illuminations will stop flashing as soon as the phone sleeps so regardless of what settings you have on (I have it on No limit) it will stop flashing after about 2 minutes.

The phone itself is a LOT slower, text messaging with the keyboard is very slow to appear on the screen now

Tilewave panel has been updated and this is slower too, the effects seam to struggle and the scrolling updates along the bottom have slowed down greatly too. (it now however offers a battery bar)

Thats all for now guys, I'll keep you posted as I explore more
[XPERIA X2 General] orlandojumpoff:
what is seus?
[XPERIA X2 General] Toleot:
Sony Ericsson Update Service. You can download it on SE website.
[XPERIA X2 General] Bouvard:
I have no problem with update. Today I do it - it lasts one hour, but on the first occasion. I updated same phones in the past too. I only described the past problems.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Hey did you backup/restore??

I mean what you write is quite terryfying.

It's like really slower?

You mean is a bad upgrade?
[XPERIA X2 General] orlandojumpoff:
does this update bring a different build of winmo?
[XPERIA X2 General] Bouvard:
I update my X2 and there is some differnce in speed. Not in every app, but I registred better speed in dialer and tilewaves. Comunication manager still lazy. Keyboard in message too. Stability till this time seems good. But it is only first sight. Yes -radio is fine - good sound from original earphones - I didn´t use till today
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
so for you it's better?
[XPERIA X2 General] rodja:
I didnt had so much time to test,here what i noticed.

1.differnce in speed

2.video call is there but i couldnt make video call (tryed few times with different settings)

3.
[XPERIA X2 General] rodja:
3.Fast GPS and working faster

4.Wireless is way faster too

5.Device Auto Lock (usefull)

....any help with setting video call?
[XPERIA X2 General] fadi.b:
see pictures in attach
[XPERIA X2 General] Bouvard:
Faster for me in start time, in going to dialer and phone, in my basic operation. Till today I only thought abou way to bazaar, but first impressions is not bad.

No problem with gps.
[XPERIA X2 General] Jolo_:
I can't upgrade yet. SEUS says that I have the most updated version. :S

Other question: Anyone knows how to change language o flash another Stock Firmware, like Spanish? :S

Cheers.
[XPERIA X2 General] bob2k4:
I didn't need to do a backup / restore. I used pipbackup for contacts etc which restored fine, but didn't need to keep SMS / EMail.

For me it is slower, i'm sure you will see when you load it. If I had known it wouldn't have fixed my biggest annoyance which is the notification LED's then I wouldn't have done it. Thats just me though
[XPERIA X2 General] Toleot:
They remove the signature games from this update! Xtrakt & Experiment 13 is missing. :(
[XPERIA X2 General] alesmatusek:
Czech SEUS still without MR1 :(
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Why they removed games?!
[XPERIA X2 General] anothadave:
id say dont rush to update. as mentioned before...no notification fix! surely thats an easy one??? some programs that worked before now wont work properly. i had a hard time getting my spb 3.5.3 on there and its still not settled right. there does seem to be more lag when writing texts using the hardware keyboard. sometimes the "X" disappears from the top right or i cant click on the start button top left while a program has a bit of a tea break and decides what to do next. think i would of prefered waiting another week or so for them to finish the update properly.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Well in Poland page stil says that it WILL come.

Anyway if this is how it looks like - the upgrade - the next one is scheduled for May.....

Sounds horrible, but also strange how different reports seem above....

Clearly my X2 is not fully usable right now

just because these little problems

I can't accept for expensive device.

I just hope it's not final yet...
[XPERIA X2 General] anothadave:
well the lag has improved a bit. i find that after a reset then theres usually keyboard lag and programs take a while to open. now its had a chance to catch up its kind of back to normal.

if your X2 is unusable then go for the update, youve got nothing to lose.
[XPERIA X2 General] PSmonkey64:
I don't get why you guys are having problems. The update has made a huge improvement on my phone. Everything boots and responds a hell of a lot faster. The only slowdown I noticed was at the start (but I think the phone was doing some bg setting up) and when swapping between different pannels. But going from the SE panel section to the Spb shell is much faster now. Also just in general both the Spb & SE Panel sections look to run and respond much better now (and I even had the patch SE put out at the start of the month).

Also ignore the page telling you the update is comming soon. Just flat out go download the SE Update Software and run it. It will find the update and install it.

So as is, the phone now works how I was expecting when I got it. Now i'm beyond pleased with it (I was starting to get really pist-off recently over the lag). :D

Thanks for the update. I made sure to backup E13 before the update (I don't care for Xtrakt). Also yeah on mine it did remove both.
[XPERIA X2 General] mathiosn:
it is faster than before but i get occasional stalls,hangs on the phone does anyone experience this? using tilewave doesen't hang the phone but when you use the classic today menu makes the phone slower. or am i the only one to experience this?
[XPERIA X2 General] mathiosn:
I agree with you ,the phone stalls or hangs in some applications, something is not right.
[XPERIA X2 General] mathiosn:
I a m facing this problem too. the update is a faliure....
[XPERIA X2 General] RUZY:
me too update sucks
[XPERIA X2 General] RUZY:
Do you think there will be any improvement in this new rom?because mine sucks although the phone is lot faster but it hangs.
[XPERIA X2 General] PSmonkey64:
Maybe there is a problem with the classic today menu?

The SPB works flawless for me.
[XPERIA X2 General] ultrashot:
mathiosn, can you upload rom file for us?
[XPERIA X2 General] mathiosn:
if you tell me how to do it, (or give me instructions) I will
[XPERIA X2 General] ultrashot:
Never mind, I've learnt it needs more than simple downloading.
[XPERIA X2 General] sx1-doc:
i would love to see the new cabs out this mr1..
[XPERIA X2 General] leoxrd:
hi i just updated x2 from update service. everything works well except for auto rotate feature..the phone was able to do this automatically when i rotate my phone,now it doesn't work at all. now i have to slide the keyboard manually to do that. and the new update does not work at all with spb 3.5. it will install and load, but not able to go to start menu or any spb menus.

serious lag when texting/messaging, especially when auto-suggest/prediction word feature is turned on. but it doesn't lag when typing on office mobile apps. there is no way to go back to the previous rom huh?
[XPERIA X2 General] ultrashot:
of course, they will be released as soon as i get this rom.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
I wonder why the upgrade is still not displayed on their pages as available

but coming soon.
[XPERIA X2 General] RUZY:
If it is the so called MR1 or better say MRlag,I rather like to have previous update back.The phone is barely functional shame on sonyericsson for this downgrade.
[XPERIA X2 General] Bouvard:
Itś not true. I update X2 in Czech by SEUS yesterday. And I´m satisfied.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Hello, so your one runs good and is better after upgrade?
[XPERIA X2 General] Toleot:
After almost 1 day trying out everything (except video call which I don't know what is multimedia gateway) this update is working at least for my X2. Tilewave panel are more usefull and stable. Before the update, whenever i received a text message while using tilewave, slideview menus goes blank. After the update, tilewave work flawlessly. And they fix that stupid timezone setting too. Before this update, my X2 INSISTED using GMT+1 even when i turned off auto-change timezone. SPB panels working great too.

Oh, and I love the radio.

For the game, I downloaded Xtrakt and Experiment 13 cab in other threads and work flawlessly (because it was ripped from X2).

Occassional slowdown still happening, but I can tolerate that.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Good to hear.

Where are the .cabs for these games??

EDIT:

Got it....

But anyway - what made them to have such a ****ing decision

to remove these games?!

Sometimes I wonder if they're really such dumb assholes out there,

or their software department suck as hell.

Annoying. You all should be just happy'of the

****ing premium Euro 600 device!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder if upgrade or just sell it.
[XPERIA X2 General] bshihada:
Does it bring you UI screen auto-rotate?
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
I wait for my country upgrade anyway...
[XPERIA X2 General] syzyec:
Oh, I am wating my Chinese Version update.
[XPERIA X2 General] SancheSZ:
Still now Russian Update... Updated from SEUS today, but didn't noticed that it didn't find newer software, just offered to reflash the same...

So I got nothing new, but just have lost all the installed software ((
[XPERIA X2 General] okelpoisse:
waiting for the French Version update too ...
[XPERIA X2 General] ultrashot:
try this fix for autorotation:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\MultiService\mods\Rotation]

"AccelBasedRotationEnabled"=dword:00000001 ;default 0

there can be some problems as they made a cab to disable it.

Original cabs from mr-1: http://neosites.org/X1/ROM/ultrashot/R1BA023_Original_Cabs(ONLY FOR ORIGINAL X2!).rar

ONLY FOR REAL X2 (not patched to work on others!)

Make a system backup if you want to try to upgrade "unofficially" :D

I am not responsible for any damage.

It is better to wait for official update
[XPERIA X2 General] syzyec:
What is the function of this cab? System will udate to MR1?
[XPERIA X2 General] alesmatusek:
Bouvard: Itś not true. I update X2 in Czech by SEUS yesterday. And I´m satisfied.

How can be? Czech SEUS still gives me R1AA ROM....
[XPERIA X2 General] ultrashot:
this cabs contain all SE software from that new firmware.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Because most country updates are not out yet.
[XPERIA X2 General] Bouvard:
Hello, I overpraise the update a bit. iGO8 and tilewaves freeze twice, so I must hard-restart. But it is true - the better speed and iGo (or other Navi) finds GPS without ports settings - that ware my biggest problems in the past.
[XPERIA X2 General] Bouvard:
I installed SEUS I download in February and I connected X2 on Friday, next SEUS advice me of new software is availeble for my X2. So I download and install it. For your information I am in Czech rep. all-time.

Hi,

just posted it:

However, looks like the SE site STILL hasnt been updated!
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Looks like MR1.
