[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prince_kassad14:
hi all

i want help please from the experts , i have some questions about the X1 ,

1- is there is any differences between the silver and the black color in the speed issues or any other difference ?

2- upgrading to wm6.5 with pure rom has any drawbacks like battery runs out so quick or makes the phone slower ?

3- is the sliding mechanism still stable after usage long time ?

4- the loud speaker volume is it loud enough ?

while i'm browsing the forums i found a lot of problems that the xperia's owners face , like cam stop working , the phone not boot , screen stop working , is this a reason of something like careless in usage or flashing the rom or any other reason ?

all of this reasons push the fair on me before i but the X1 , please experts i need help from you to reassure me b4 i buy it , especially the speed of the phone because has a lot of complains about the speed and response of the phone .

thank you waiting your soonest reply
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poetryrocksalot:
1. There are no differences in speed in regards to color.

2. I haven't used the Pure Rom.

3. The sliding mechanism is the best I have ever seen, felt, and used.

4. The Loud Speaker Volume is not loud enough in public places of with the television on. Not suggested for music playback.

No, I have not faced these problems on my X1

Yes, the phone is extremely slow for a Windows Mobile device.

Also, there are more problems that you should be aware of. After a long span of use, the device will show cracks and lose it's paint. Second, the keyboard will lose it's sensitivity within 2 years (phones are suppose to maintain a functional keyboard forever).

What he said. Seconded.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ring-bearer:
Thirded. Ultimately the only major problem I haven't been able to solve either through Sony repair or tweaking is the sluggishness of the phone. I would say that I now have a phone that does nearly everything I want, but it's fairly slow. I also wish the camera and video recording were better, but they are better than what you might expect on a WM phone, I guess.

ps welcome back Orelsi. Where the hell you been???:D

That's right, all of them are gone, why is that?

maybe they are abducted by aliens or bill gates has them inside some laboratory working as slaves... who knows...

where is nav or Mietas???

hope some day they appear and tell us their story.

[Palm Treo 750] hartleyshc:
Well the 750 is well over 3 years old now. Everyone has probably just left, or moved on to newer phones. Typically the life span of a phone is a bit over 2 years.

Low memory, low resolution, low mp camera. I'm sure most have just moved on.
[Palm Treo 750] einsteinecker:
This isn't a question of the phones' popularity, this is a question of "why does a ROM cooker enter this Treo750 forum, release a ROM, ask for feedback/bug reports/comments and then all of a sudden disappears?"

It gives people hope, and then as quickly and abruptly as the cooker entered, that hope get's snatched away from us. Look at all the Treo750 ROMs released so far. Every one of them has got to have at least 1 bug in them, I think fixing the bugs are either too much trouble or, some things just can't be fixed.
[Palm Treo 750] jurgy1:
I would agree - it is probably too much trouble for the chefs on a device that is over 3 years old.

These guys are donating their time for very little $$$$ in donations.

I am sure that if you hit up someone with some $$ they would try to fix the bugs, but otherwise NO incentive.

My wifey still uses a 750 (mainly for txting and voice) so I come and check here every now and then just for kicks, but I really don't expect much to happen.

Like I said, the device is over 3 years old and I even tell the Mrs. that it is time to get something new like a 'droid or nexus or evo, etc.... . .

just my .02 - FWIW
[Palm Treo 750] bbmadzky:
Well that maybe the case. I really don't know why they'd leave their FW's all of the sudden. They could just update their thread and say "hey, I don't really have the time right now" or just say "It's getting old by the way, maybe its time to change our own phones." Just like that. In any case, we would love to hear their honest insights and feelings right?
[Palm Treo 750] einsteinecker:
Treo750 post

yeah, they could have at least let everyone know they can no longer spend time on these ROMs. I think that's what everyone wants; it's not about them making excuses, it about us having closure.
[Palm Treo 750] sosno:
just my ppc

I use my treo 750 to surf and download for my 10 yr old hp 6630. I have most of the released roms reduced for memory (80+50). 28205 is my fav; 21828, 23017, 21193, still working 23563.
[HD2 General] drbmbay:
everything was working fine, then I installed fingerboard2 & the xt9disable.cab. I didn't like the way fingerboard looked so I uninstalled it. but then the htc keyboard kept showing the word completion pop-up. I tried to uninstall the xt9disable.cab and it deleted the file, but the registry setting I'm guessing is still in play and it won't turn on (which is fine, I don't want xt9 capability). but I've turned on and off the word completion and it won't go away. is there a reg setting I can do to stop it? thanks!!!

brand new tmobile hd2 - rocks! (otherwise)
[HD2 General] drbmbay:
nevermind

got it fixed (did a hard reset... what the heck... it worked.)
[HD2 General] fred_up:
On the keyboard there is a button XT9/ABC. It is defaulted to XT9. Press it and it goes onto ABC. This stops the annoying word completion pop-ups.

Extra tip: if you double click on the 'caps shift' button you go into Caps Lock mode. Pressing the 'caps shift' button again gets you back to normal mode again.
[HD2 General] GNOve:
Boy does windows mobile suck!!!

I cant believe how extremely half assed this operating system is.

It has nothing to show for and nothing in the future.

Now the htc hd2 is perfect but man i sure do hope somebody hacks android

into it. What a waste of excellent engineering.

I resetted my phone 5 times already because it crashes. The operating system besides sense is from windows 95.

No appeal what so ever. What a shame the phone is so perfect in many ways.

But not in what matters the most :(

What do you guys think about the htc hd2?

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] prince_kassad14:
hi all

please i want to know from the experts who has X1 or who upgrade X1 to WM6.5 , what is the advantages and disadvantages of the upgrading ?

what happened ?

does the phone got slow ?

does the battery runs out fast ?

please advice me before i do any thing ?

i please you all

thank you so much waiting your soonest reply

best regards
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Remco-:
Hmm, after running WM6.5.5 for a while I guess I can share my experiences with you.

The biggest advantage I think is userinterface. After you have played with WM6.5.5 for a while you will find WM6.1 old and crappy and actually useless, lol. The renewed userinterface really makes things a lot better and more finger friendly, especially if you combine it with Sense 2.5. I haven't used the pen anymore since I've upgraded to WM6.5.5

WM6.5.5 itself doesn't make your phone run slow. Only I do think the battery usage was a bit better on WM6.5.5, but I'm not sure... it's been a while ago.

I run WM6.5.5 in combination with Sense 2.5, which does make the phone a bit slower. However I prefer Sense 2.5 much over the aditional speed without Sense 2.5
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] republicano:
please read several threads

theres more advantages than disadvantages thats for sure,

Normal xperia firmware had some basic functions compared to cooked roms,

as i noticed on energy's rom and Touch-IT BR <> Sense 2.5 speed and stability increased alot, as well as programs

im currently using Touch-IT_BR_23547 and battery last just as long as the stock firmware and is more friendly for fingers since i lost my stylus

its best to try several roms to find one to make it more convenient and less frustration to use in terms of accessing a program and its reliability when you really need it

you need to read a couple of threads to understand and gain confidence when you flash her, of else you wont get anywhere,
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] pegasus123:
you lost 2 stylus'es? damn :D
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] prince_kassad14:
what about the pure WM6.5 (not cooked or customized ) , is it will be stable , fast and the battery will be the same as the original rom WM6.1 ?

thanks all gus
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] dundun1701:
No, i dont think so.

The thing is there is not any 6.5 room for X1, just cooked room. Therefore, cooker have to modify the room in order to keep it stable on X1. So some rooms like Infinity or X1.5 is a good choice for you.

- Stable

- Fast

- Best battery comsume (your battery will last longer)

- Infinity has pure 6.5 interface
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] redlite:
I used to hate 6.5 roms. Found them too slow, but after flashing this 826x rom, i changed my opinion. Its really quick. Battery last quite long but not as long as stock rom I guess. For best results you should use task29 then flash a stock rom then this rom. You can get the 826x roms from here http://http://826x.blogspot.com/
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] ring-bearer:
Ditto. Williyung's 6.5.5 826X ROMs are basically perfect. Highly highly recommended. Stability is probably even better that stock ROM. Speed and battery are the same. Finger friendliness is improved, as everyone mentions.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] oTToToTenTanz:
Yes, Im using Williy's ROMs as well and it was the first WM 6.5 I actually liked. I don't like sense. Its messing things up too much.

The only advantage left is speed for WM 6.1. One gotta know what's wanted...

Hi I ran a search and did not see anything that looked like this so..

Usually on my phone I have a reception of 2 bars 3g. when i send an sms message my signal drops to 2 bars 1x. After the sms is sent it goes right back to 2 bars 3g.

Don't know if it is just a display glitch or if it is actually dropping 3g.

Does not happen when using browser.

Sometimes does it when receiving sms.

Anyone else have this peculiar behavior with their phone?

Hi, I propose this new thread for two things:

- Share my cooking method and asking for help in order to bring it to the next level.

- Share other cooking techniques based on EVK, and Mortscript and Batch Files automation.

So let's start:

The second post covers cooking icons with mortscript. The attachment below has all the code.

The fifth post covers my Ervis Visual Kitchen extrabuttons: Lots of automation for helping upgrade the kitchen, help cooking the rom and customizing the ppc.

The zip is in 4shared since has exes inside and can not be posted here.

Hopefully, some people will share other code and other ways of cooking. I would appreciate if somebody could help me to integrate this code in the kitchen batch file so that the mortscript would run once the temp/dump files where created but before building the nbh file.

I cheer everibody to post links or code to other batch/cmd scripts that help automation when cooking.
[Windows Mobile] cruiserrr:
Cooking icons with Mortscript at 1st boot (no files in windows folder)

I was looking for a way to cook shortcuts that:

1) did not overload windows directory

2) was "easy" to mantain (in terms of folders, rank & icons definition)

3) contributed to reduce errors

4) was simple to attach to any EVK kitchen

How I do it?

- On the pc side, I use mortscript to generate automatically a few provxml files that create shortcuts and asign icons, rank and group. Is a two-steps process: 1) I cook the rom, 2) run a ppc mortscript that inspects the dump directory and creates the code only for the exe and mscr files present in the temp\dump folder and zips and copies Icons to the appropiate kitchen EXT folders. It also zips and copies icons to be used on the ppc side 3) I re-cook the rom. Standard windows png are currently stored in the usual windows directory but bonus shortcuts (shortcuts to ext rom packages, to self made scripts, etc) are created in a specific directory out of the windows directory.

- On the ppc side, I use mortscript to generate automatically control panel shortcuts, mortscript shortcuts, shortcuts to main memory programs and shortcuts to sd programs that do not need reinstallation after flashing.

I publish my code as it is now. I start with the basic scripts but will keep adding material if interest is risen.

Cruiserrr's EVK Extrabuttons

Hi, I have build a little scheleton where I keep on adding the different tools I use in my Roms cooking:

backup the kitchen or parts of it,

download/upload files to the ppc to test,

create build version and date provxml files,

optimize png

import sys (currently da_g structure)

play with the ppc: sync the time, show/kill processes, run programs, reboot

recmod, ...

create .erv file from the latest build cooked

You simply have to download the file and extract it to your extrabuttons folder (please be aware the zip has an extrabuttons ini file that should not be copied but adapted to yours)

Hope you find it useful, you discover tools you did not now of and of couse I post it hoping some other people will share their scripts so we can all benefit from it.

Hi XDA-Developers,

As some other people, I have a problem with the hardware volume keys. The increase and decrease volume steps when pressing the hardware volume buttons is too big.

In the HTC volume control, the volume can be fine-tuned by pressing on the screen, but not with the hardware buttons. When using the hardware buttons, the volume will increase or decrease with 3 bars at the time.

Is there a way to edit this? (register edit?)

I couldn’t find the solution for this problem after hours of searching…

I hope someone can help me with this problem ;)
[Touch HD General] User X:
I think it's not exactly a problem it's just 3 bars by default. But I'm pretty sure there should be some way to tweak the registry and reduce it to 1 bar.

I would really like to try a hard-reset...but the device is like death - the akkupackage is fully loaded...

when i connect the device with power, nothing happens - even the led isnt lighting!

just if i pick off the akku und connect the device without akku to the power, then a red led is there lighting constantly.

the device has no reaction to the power button...

yesterday i used the hardspl:

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=649003

after the reboot message, my device was dead.

i found no way - and i have searched all night long - to wake it up :o(

Isnt there any "magic finger trick" with some buttons to awake it? :O)

i wrote to htc support...telling that the phone just when off....hope they will change it on warranty....its 2 weeks old :o(

[Hero, G2 Touch General] immya:
Okay, not 100 percent sure Bout this but ill use some of my physics and maths knowledge with a bit if Wikipedia help to try and explain. Dbm is shorthand for dbmw..ie decebel milli watts. It's a measure of the amout of power your phone is using to retain that signal. Since its decibels then its a logrithmic measurement,you can't get zero signal.

Baisically...-100dbm is like 0.00000000000033 watts

-25 dBM is around 0.0000003 watts.

It's just a way of measuring really small amounts of power.

Not too sure about the other thing tho. Hope this helps
[Hero, G2 Touch General] clobber:
In laymans terms, we use dB simply to make power levels more usable/manageable. You'll see that immya's response includes all kinds of crazy numbers which would not be fun to write every time. However dB don't really have any units. That is, if one signal is twice as strong as another then it is 3dB stronger. If I have ten times as many boxes of cheerios as you, then I have 10dB more than you. dB is always used as a ratio like that.

If you don't want to use it as a ratio comparing two things, then you need to know the unit. So, I can't say that my signal strength is 20db - it makes no sense. What is that measured in? Boxes of cheerios? We need to know if that signal strength is measure in milliWatts or Watts or whatever. Therefore, you just tag on either a m or W (usually) for signals strength. If you were to see a signal strength of +3dBm that would mean it is twice as strong as 1milliwatt (which of course is 2 milliwats). If you see +3dBW then it would be 2 Watts. Like wise if you see -3dBm that means it is half as strong as 1milliwatt or just 0.5milliwatts.

If you are following along then you can clearly figure out that 0dBm is the same thing as saying 1 milliwatt and 0dBW is the same thing as saying 1 watt.

Obviously, the actual received signal strength displayed on your phone is usually something like -90dBm which means it is really really week compared to 1 milliwatt........which is normal of course. And -80dBm is 10dB (no unit) stronger than -90dBm.

hope that helps

@clobber: it does indeed, thanks very much - I didn't know about the m & W notation previously :)
