because too many people complained about themes being "forced" onto them.... This will be added to the theme section of the OTA updater as soon as its available.

Once again great work Tristan.

Can I ask have you tested the vanilla lockscreen on this rom? its broken by default or does your theme fix it?
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Sean09:
Hey, kind of an odd question for these forums, but I am running out of options! I have been searching high and low for a North American version of this phone that operates with the 850/1900 UMTS/HSDPA. Everywhere I find it, it is for Europe/Asia: 900/2100.

Anyone know where I can get the 850 version reasonably priced? The ONLY place I have found it is expansys, and they are very overpriced. Thanks for any help!

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pitel:
First, you should have your data partition of your SD card formatted as FAT32.

Then connect your Hero to your PC using original USB table (you can use non-original, but not everyone of them works).

You should see notification on hero about connected USB, click on this notification and Hero will ask you if you want to connect it as storage device.

Linux should now recognize your Hero as standard USB flash drive.

This works for me.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmicha:
I don't think repartitioning will help here. /dev/sda is the disk in his computer, because /dev/sda6 is mounted as /. The dmesg output doesn't say anything about /dev/sdb, and there is not even anything about trying to connect a USB device.

My guess is either the cable is bad, or the USB socket on the computer is not connected.

[Desire General] trice1921:
They usually take a couple of days to deliver. I'm just about to order them, hope i don't get the screen scratched.
[Desire General] gogol:
If you use screen protector, how about the responsiveness? Because it is capacitive screen, it suppose to touch your finger?
[Desire General] XDAgeek:
If it's glass, why bother with a screen protector. I've been using an iPhone for ages with a glass screen, and only have it in a silicon case with no screen protection. Not a mark on the screen yet. Only way you will scratch it is with a diamond ring or similar IMO.
[Desire General] gogol:
That's what I thought ... But probably the same like me, we are used to WM resistive screen and first thing first would be put a screen protection for new phone.

I cannot imagine my finger would be able to scratch the glass screen. Probably it can happen when we are not careful or drop the phone, it could break though.

And I hate if it will be less responsive because of the screen protection.

However, I remembered this article:

Beware to not put in tight pocket!

I was very disappointed when Sprint decided not to get the HTC HD2, which run on the wm6.5/HTC Sense. I am deciding to leave Sprint for T-mobile, which will have it, but I found out that Sprint will have the HTC EVO coming up in summer of 2010, and this phone has better hardware than HTC HD2. The problme is that EVO will be running on the Android platform, but I love wm6.5 because it is the most versatile operating system, especially since it can do more than any operating software like PDF reader, multitasking, copy and paste, third party apps from 3rd party sites, force roam mode for CDMA, indirect Adobe Flash support through the Skyfire browser, etc.

So is there any way to come up with a ROM to put wm6.5/HTC Sense software on the Sprint/HTC EVO 4G when it comes out? I am willing to pay.

I am currently with AT&T. The perfect phone would be the EVO running WinMo6.5, upgradeable to win phone 7, flashed with an awesome rom...

I have done a ridiculous amount of research and this is the best option... =)

God do I hope AT&T will come out with a version of the hd2. It would suck to have to wait till the first gen win phone 7 phones come out next Nov...

I will be following this forum to see if anything comes out of the EVO option.

AT&T Evo

Yeah I'm on AT&T too - and now they've announced no more unlimited data plans - so I'm definitely going to jump ship as soon as I find the carrier with an EVO Class hardware and Windows Mobile. Sux too cause I've been grandfathering my $20/month data plan with AT&T for years now. But they won't even let me keep it anymore when I upgrade my phone so Piss on them. I'm so done with their b.s.

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] the49ers:
Hi,

I have installed that latest Android OS on my X1 yesterday

(Friday, March 26), per the documentation in this forum.

Installed files:

fatsal-xperoid-20100221.7z

essential_apps.zip

wlan-modules_20100325.zip

zImage_kovsky_20100325.zip

The issue is: Connecting to the Internet via 3G does not work.

- I can do phonecalls via Android. I can also get phonecalls.

- I can browse the internet via Wireless.

- Browsing the internet via 3g does not work (wireless is turned off),

(browser error: no network connection, browser cannot load this

page because there is no internet connection)

- Started "Haret", with the 3G connection in WinMo working (on).

As 2nd test, started "Haret" with the 3G connection off in Winmo.

= no internet via 3g

- I also ran into the issue, getting stuck in the PIN screen.

Turning it off in WiMo fixed it

(this should be added to the installation FAQ).

- Noticed that there is no ringtone with inbound calls.

The only available ringtone in the default install is called "silent" ?

- double checked the APN settings from the phone in varous forums,

can't find issues.

These are from "T-Mobile Germany" and were setup by default.

APN profile is enabled:

Name: t-mobile D

apn: internet.t-mobile

proxy: <not set>

port: <not set>

username: t-mobile

password: ** (pw is tm)

Server: * (value is not known)

mmsc: h t t p : / / mms.t-mobile.de/servlets/mms

mms proxy: 172.028.023.131

mms port: 8008

mnc: 01

authentication type: None

APN type: <not set>

Upper values are the default values.

I tested various values (e.g. cleared the upper server value,

tried various authentication types (pap/chap or both)), didn't help.

- I also install the "APNdroid" application,

File: apndroid-2.0.2-r16-debug-key.apk

It claims that 3G/EDGE/GPRS is on.

Played with this tool by turning 3G off and on

(hoping to help resolve problem), didn't help.

- I didn't find a connection manager, like in WinMo, where you can centrally

disable and enable various connection types (I often turn off the data

connection in WinMo, to save e.g. battery). Didn't find a simelar option

as e.g. the tool "APNdroid" provides.

I'm running out of ideas to troubleshoot.

I'm happy to hear ideas how to fix this and get a working internet connection.

/justin

UPDATE:

I also tried a different simcard from the german phone provider SIMYO, a subsidary

of E-Plus and used the respective APN information:

e-plus/simyo

Name: Eplus Internet

APN: internet.eplus.de

Username: eplus

Passwort: eplus

MCC: 262

MNC: 03

APN type: default

Result: same issue, as discribed above with T-Mobile Germany.

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Musse_1:
just a thought it might be that APN settings above are only for mms.

and you need to create a first deault APN for Internet, following APN sites settings looks different, see below link

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] the49ers:
Tried these (and other APN settings): no sucess sofar.

Hi,

I tried these (and other APN settings), they didn't work.

The default settings I published in my 1st posting are the same ones listed in the communications settings in WinMo 6.5.

I also tried "ifconfig" in the "terminal emulator", to see if the system maybe gets an IP. Insted I get an error "no inet socket available: permission denied".

The "route" command shows no routing entries, so there is really no lan connection (when I run the Wifi connection, then I see the default routing entry").

I think, the issue is (maybe) somewhere else.

/Justin
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] vdelf:
You have to be root for running ifconfig. Type "su" to become root.

No idea about your problem. 3G-connection works fine for me out of the box, so it seems not to be a general android problem. :o
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] the49ers:
Debugging possabilities?

I wonder, if there is a way to debug this issue, or troubleshoot via the terminal program, if there are ways to turn on debugging (it's still not working)?

- I reformatted the SD card and reinstalled again per documentation

- apart from "t-mobile D", also tried my "Simyo Sim card" again with

it's APN settings from E-Plus

- I copied the data.img and rootfs.img to a WinPc, decompressed them

and checked if there are maybe logfiles

- In the terminal, su works and I can run e.g. ifconfig and ps commands.

The ifconfig command shows no lan card for the 3g card, there is also

no default route via the route command (a default route exists with the

wireless connection).

- The windows mobile system is at the latest version, per sony patch

software (just tried that). Also did a mem reset in WinMo (set phone back

to it's default settings) and then tried Android, didn't work.

I'm happy to hear any ideas, as this seems to be a android issue. Maybe I have a Xperia X1 phone with a hardware version which does not work with the current android drivers.

How to e.g. find out via the terminal if the prosess for the gprs/hsdpa, ... is running, if it is possible to do a connection debug like e.g. with ppp to resolve authentication issues.

/Justin
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] vdelf:
You can check the android logfile for errors. In terminal type

logcat -d -f /sdcard/logcat.txt

that will dump the android log to a file logcat.txt on your sdcard. In that look for "ppp" or "if-up" or post it.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] -s3pp-:
I`ve got the same problem, but on my first test it worked. Now I try all configurations from my first test, because the first test was succesful I think that the information you need were placed in the data.img. As I needed a new configuration I deleted the data.img, after this I couldn`t again use an data connection.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] vdelf:
in my log the 3g-connection is established using if-up. That creates an ppp-interface, i can see that with ifconfig.

Looking at your log, it seems to me, that android is not even trying to connect. Maybe it is some hardware issue? Please take a look at the linux kernel log using

dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt

You could play around with the if-up command, too. This seems to be standard linux stuff, so ask google about that. ;)

I noticed, there is a ip-up file in /etc/ppp .

When I run that file, then I get the error that dir /smodem does not exist.

It looks like this file would either use ppp0 or ppp1 as interface (if it would exist). It is strange that there are hardly any logs regarding 3G, as if the 3G hardware would not exist.

The ifconfig only shows "lo", "tiwlan0" and "usb0" interfaces.

At some point pppd is called by android. It uses /dev/smd0 for AT-commands and /dev/smd1 for gprs-data. Please make sure that you have these two devices. Then try to run pppd manualy. That may give a hint on what is wrong.

It is also possible that pppd is never called. Does anybody have some info about when and where android calls pppd?

Same issue here, with running Android on X1 in the Netherlands with Vodafone. (verified APN settings with a working Androind phone)

And I might be misstaken, but shouldn't there be a pppd connect script somewhere ? I can't find it anywhere.
