Slide View is actually almost flawless in my case...
[XPERIA X2 General] coloboxp:
My programs!!

Hi all

Im having a strange and annoying issue..., i dont know if it was after or before the procedure depicted here by royalbloodvi but maybe you can know what is going on..

If i install software on the storage card, i can see the folder created under "Program Files" and i can execute the software with no problems.

Then when i close the app, somehow,

automagically

the entire folder structure under "Storage Card\Program Files" gets erased, doesnt matter if i have one or twenty apps there, always happens the same thing :confused::mad: ....

I dont know if i explain myself clearly, in fact english is not my mother language as you can see haha, but i dont know whats going on, even in this case i dont know which keywords i have to use to google it...

Please if you can give me some advice or trick would be very appreciated, even the "right" english keywords to search for it.

Thanks in advance dudes...

[XPERIA X2 General] royalbloodvi:
This is a KNOWN issue for all X2 users, using my solution or not.. only way it can be fixed is up to SE itself since they screwed the X2 over.
[XPERIA X2 General] royalbloodvi:
UPDATE: Read step 8 to disable SLIDEVIEW for significant extended battery life and a more stable X2 =)
[XPERIA X2 General] bazsikar:
Credits to jerpelea for this one! :)
[XPERIA X2 General] royalbloodvi:
Adjustments made credits to both of you =)
[XPERIA X2 General] bazsikar:
Thanks! :)

And also thanks for your sharing, I'm just removing everything you suggested and let's see. Although I'm a bit sad because I like SlideView and TileWave, especially visualy but I need some functions working properly instead, so I give it a try.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
As I extensively use X2, using most of it's features (besides GPS)

I must say that the main thing FOR ME was to not use extensively TileWave.

After beeing really frustrated and unhappy, I was still tracing the places where the device crash.

And found it was using some functions on TileWave, I can say it

after repeating the patterns about 50 times, I was like a real beta tester....

So avoiding it, the device works almost seamless....

The bugs I see:

As I mentioned, the main SlideView bug is playing and exiting video playback

in landscape... This always crash sooner or later.

Besides that, the device gets stuck in Sound&Notification settings once you go there sometimes

and WM Homescreen sometimes doesn't see the pictures from memory card.

Besides that, it works and if they'll ever make it reliable,

it's my best choice.
[XPERIA X2 General] sx1-doc:
volks,

i have been using x1 for over an year and been in XDA for yearssss,

that thing that i notice in openGL (msn 7200 platform)freeze the phone and crash the system.

if you wanna crash your sytem use slideview panelmanger ,play xtrakt then run a video and your xperia will crash.

opengl on the msm 7200 platfom is very unstable(maybe its the lack of good drivers or window mobile integration).

avoid opengl stuff and you will be good.
[XPERIA X2 General] royalbloodvi:
UPDATE: To disable panelmanager.exe, simply delete all panels in programfiles\panels EXCEPT MS_Today panel, and panelmanager will no longer run.

Result: Extend battery life EVEN further! Works best for those who dont use panels like me (I find it pointless)
[XPERIA X2 General] bazsikar:
Yes, I deleted it aswell from HKLM\init together with xkeyhandler.exe

Good battery life and stable system, no freezing at all, no missed sms or calls.

Although camera still doesn't start sometimes even if saving location is set to phone memory.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Camera sometimes doesn't start with certain apps in the background

that's my finding.

I've had it with stopwatch running.

Once I turned this off, camera went fine.

As for me - I use panels and SlideView, but just don't use certain

things from these, also no freezes at all.

The main concern is memory card problems now!
[XPERIA X2 General] okelpoisse:
(please excuse my english)

thanks for this solution, X2 is better whitout slideview.

but i have always probleme this memory card (like everybody)

and some crash in standy by mode -> black screen and soft reset :'(

other problème : illluminations don't work normaly (maybe because i have use a cab find in xda ...)

and picture in mms are very very very small ...

anybody was an idea ?

thanks :)
[XPERIA X2 General] royalbloodvi:
and some crash in standy by mode -> black screen and soft reset :'(

Solution: Try to turn off auto-backlight and set it manually.

Illuminations: Go to Settings -> Personal -> Sounds n notifications -> Double click text messaging or missed call -> Enable illumination
[XPERIA X2 General] sx1-doc:
prt_lab are testing the R3AA for X2 ,

and it look like there are working hard to finaly get a stable ROM.
[XPERIA X2 General] okelpoisse:
Thanks i will try

For illuminations, I know this setting, but then I go on the line battery or charge, after change the setting, I can't close this menu, so make a soft reset ... strange !
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Who is prt_lab?!
[XPERIA X2 General] sx1-doc:
prt_lab and LAN_LAN are nick names for sonyericsson software engineers ,You can see that they tested yesterday the R3AA @

http://www.glbenchmark.com/resultsoflogin.jsp?login=prt_lab&benchmark=glpro

and

http://www.jbenchmark.com/resultsoflogin.jsp?login=LANLAN&benchmark=pro

and from the results you can see that they are testing the R3AA release.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Lol, ok,

if you say they work it looks promising.
[XPERIA X2 General] sx1-doc:
they have too builds under testing 21436 and 23103 build and both are with start menu on the button A.K.A 6.5.3
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
That's good to hear indeed.
[XPERIA X2 General] anothadave:
interesting. all goobledegook to me but im sure it means something to someone lol. not really keen on the start button being moved to the bottom. at the moment its at the top out of the way and can be easily accessed. at the bottom its going to be right in the way all the time or hidden by whatever application im using. doesnt really make sense why they need to move it :S for example, when in the sms application the bottom left is "delete" wheres the start button going to be? they cant both be in the same place.
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
Lol, you haven't seen any WM 6.5.3 screens, have you?

The icon is actually planned in a great place - easy accessible.....

All of the icons wil be there!

WM Menu, app menu, delete, or add or whatever...

Nothing will be lost, you'll have just more icons on the bottom......
[XPERIA X2 General] anothadave:
i did see a few wm6.5.3 screens ages ago but i was goin by memory when i wrote the post. having looked as some screenshots it looks like everythings pushed up half a cm to accomodate the new icons at the bottom. seems a bit of a waste of screen space...

as you know i like to use SPB and thats designed to fit right to the bottom edge of the screen so that was actually the main application im worried about. just seems an uneccesary loss of precious screen space when it works perfectly fine at the top. i get the feeling microsoft just changed it to show people that theyve actually done something.lol.

ill reserve final judgement for when its all released though. but this time im going to make a full system backup!! dont want to be caught out again like mr1
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
My X2 works good besides constant memory card problem...

As for WM 6.5.3. - well, I love the new look and how it is designed.

I really don't like SPB at all, so here we have different view....

But I assume that as with current WM,

the bottom bar will disappear in SPB...
[XPERIA X2 General] chris_khho:
Hardware button

After we remove the panel, how can we use the hardware button?
[XPERIA X2 General] kokonai:
I do everything from the first post but Slideview starting after reboot.

Check all twice for INIT section in the registry - the 199 key removed.

After pressing twice the Slide button ...there is a Slideview on the screen pops.

After 3 reboots the situation is the same.

The ROM is MR1. Where I do wrong?
[XPERIA X2 General] lyteo:
Go to Program Files/Slide View and move the whole folder to some different location, so WinMo can't find it. And it wont run again.
[XPERIA X2 General] Low_Down:
More stuff, maybe?

Guys, i have done all things in this thread. and a little more.

in SKtools

1. in services and delete the xkeyhandler

2. removed all reg for Today Plugins that i don't use

In Advanced configuration tool

changed to Windows standard dialer ( i never use video call)

and i think it speed it up even more.

And one thing more. but i don't know if it's just my imagination, but it seams like it runs faster if you "clean up" under the start menu. and instead of having a lot

of different shortcuts where, i made some maps and put moved my shortcuts.

like Internet, Tools etc etc

Keep up the good work people! together we can may be get this s**t phone to work :rolleyes:

Low_down
[XPERIA X2 General] lyteo:
What does that xkeyhandler anyway?
[XPERIA X2 General] lyteo:
You gotta remove Xkeyhandler from the regedit too - I think it is a launch65 key - search for it and remove it, and it won't run at system startup.
[XPERIA X2 General] Low_Down:
Yes, i know. that's what i meen by "i have done all things in this thread."

[XPERIA X2 General] zegoo:
Is someone knows how to get some applications directly in lanscape mode using internal accelerometer ?

For example :

Why do we have to open slide (keyboard) to get opera in lanscape mode ?

Why do we have to open slide (keyboard) to play NFS undercover in landscape mode ?

Thanks to all for the good jobs you done for X2 users !
[XPERIA X2 General] royalbloodvi:
UPDATE: Disable xkeyhandler & delete from startup <-- Performance of the phone ONCE AGAIN, MUCH MORE SNAPPIER AND FASTER =)

Read first post. ALL steps combined will give you a fast, smooth X2 that NEVER crashes (So far I've been using for 1 month, not a single crash or black screen)
[XPERIA X2 General] lyteo:
Not quite correct. Applied all stuff, even with xkeyhandler removal. Phone still turned of and had a black screen after I made a 8 minute call...so, waiting for the MR2 to see, whether to keep the phone or buy myself some other stable device..

PS

And the battery issue, battery was on 64 %, made a soft reset and when the phone restarted, battery was only 50 %...is this normal?
[XPERIA X2 General] tokyo78:
Hey guys, new here... wassup.

This seems to be the topic I've been lookin for DESPERATELY... THANKS TO ALL.

One quick Q... which version of the Advanced Configuration Tool should I be installing?
[XPERIA X2 General] royalbloodvi:
Any version, as long as you are able to do what the steps described.
[XPERIA X2 General] tokyo78:
thanks very much... doing the final soft-resest as I type!

*fingers crossed*
[XPERIA X2 General] BRAIN_STEW:
i see this on the SE Product Blog earlier, will give it a try and let you know if im succesful :)
[XPERIA X2 General] WINE GLASS:
As i said, i posted elsewhere. I posted at xperiax1.net also.
[XPERIA X2 General] sobge:
The same for me before and after MR1.

Bad measurement?
[XPERIA X2 General] Stimpy0030:
Thanks - i did it and it seems faster - will give it a try... anyone knows what to do with the slide view key now ? remapping does not work for me ...
[XPERIA X2 General] royalbloodvi:
Happens when you charge with USB cable & mix with charging with power adapter. Try to charge with the power adapter as this gives you the REAL battery meter levels.
[XPERIA X2 General] lyteo:
If I turn the phone off, does it ever get fully charged...it seems that the charging animation is running to infinity :)
[XPERIA X2 General] tokyo78:
well it is FAR more responsive and faster after 24hrs of foolin' around with the x2... but now I've got a new problem, or something I hadn't noticed before... when I slide the keyboard out or touch the screen BEFORE hitting the power button to WAKE UP the x2 the screen stays black... so when it's in my pocket and even the slightest tap on the screen causes this black out so I have to f**kin' take out the battery and restart... uuggghhhh
[XPERIA X2 General] WINE GLASS:
I have noticed the black screen a few times, do not know why it happens in my case, seems random.

Also sometimes the screen is really bright, or has a really light edge all the way around the screen.
[XPERIA X2 General] royalbloodvi:
Tried turning off auto-backlight? Also changing today settings works and it goes away.
[XPERIA X2 General] tokyo78:
Hi would you mind walking through the steps of 'changing today settings'... thanks... unless you meant selecting a minimum from the list of todays items (I selected: messaging, date, tasks, calendar and device lock)...

I did do something desperate using SKTools... told the sucker to never 'sleep' hahaha now I've got pathetic battery life hahaha

Will try the auto-backlight OFF and see how it goes :)

THANK YOU!
[XPERIA X2 General] radlink14:
Whats xkeyhandler ? And I can't find the option in sktools nor totalcommander. Big noob here.

Also would it be a bad idea to run spb mobile shell 3.5?
[XPERIA X2 General] alecuwo:
i have already remove spb ......but my camera didnt work anymore....any suggestion...?
[XPERIA X2 General] derailed001:
Does anyone know if it is possible to put all of these instructions into a boot file, or to alter the windows install files so that when the phone is flashed this will be a default?
[XPERIA X2 General] JJRockford:
I can't perform the first instruction of this step properly:

"12) Disable XKeyhandler: SKtools-> Services-> Delete xkeyhandler. Step 2: Totalcommander-> HKLM -> init -> Delete Launch65"

When I start SKTools I can only see the following:

Clean!

Optimize!

Tune up!

Installed Programs

Move Data

Notifications Queue

Shadow Services

SKTools Backup

Registry Explorer

Where could I disable xkeyhandler?

Another thing (which might be solved if someone tells me how to do the first question? :)) is that sometimes it's sort of hard to get back from the lock screen.

The little square at the top of the screen that you are supposed to move left or right to unlock just moves to the end of the screen, but nothing happens. If I press the power button pretty fast two times, I come to a screen where I am supposed to have a code (white background, blue buttons). Another two pushes on the power button gets the phone back to my home screen, and now it's possible unlock as it worked in WM 6.1 (push "Lock up" in the down left corner, and than press another "Lock up" in the down right or middle right of the screen).
[XPERIA X2 General] fire-warrior:
done the tricks and x2 is really fast now ... really thanks but is there any thing can be done to make camera video capture mode faster ??
[XPERIA X2 General] ashkaeli:
how do you use fm radio if you disable slide view?
[XPERIA X2 General] tttt9999:
Thnks.. it worked 100% best !!!!!!!!!!!!
[XPERIA X2 General] abhishek.hitman:
Any mods to Slideview & Panel Manager processes - Xperia X2?

Hi all,

I'm using most of the tips mentioned here but its sad that we have to give up slideview and panels which are unique to the Xperia X2 for performance. :( Slideview was never useless (mentioned somewhere in this thread), an XMB menu clone was always intuitive.

Isn't there any way that these two processes or cabs (i'm not sure), Slideview.exe and Panelmanager.exe be modified so that they don't hog the CPU and drain the battery? :rolleyes:

And you don't have to delete all that's mentioned in the first post. You can just rename them to something else. eg. My Device\Program File\PanelManager to My Device\Program File\PanelManager1. Same thing with the registry entries, HKLM\Init\Slideview.exe to HKLM\Init\Slideview.xee. (I guess that doesn't make any difference, does it? :confused: )

This is for getting back quickly, all that you don't like in case you feel the need for it. :)

All credits to royalbloodvi for finding out all tweaks and summing it in one place. :)

Advanced users can you please think of any methods to modify the cool stuff in X2 to make it work better instead of deleting them?
[XPERIA X2 General] esad (SE Xperia X2):
i done everything in the first...all step to speed up x2..is great..but anyone know how can i get back my panels back? i need those tilewave back..how to retrieve it back??
[XPERIA X2 General] abhishek.hitman:
I guess you can hard reset your device one again (press the button behind the stylus) and your X2 will start customization again giving back everything you lost during the process mentioned here.

You can also search in xda for your panels and install them separately. I'm a newbie so i can't post links in here. Sorry.

Seniors, please correct me if i am wrong. And a word of advice to you, read the post above and try renaming instead of deleting everything. Copy all the panels to your SD card the next time before deleting. It would be very easy for you to step back if you feel like. :)
[XPERIA X2 General] abhishek.hitman:
Hie :)

Have you got your panels back?

You can also do it the simple way. Just go to Settings>System>Phone Reset

Just type in the code, resetting process will begin and then the Customization would start. Just follow the steps it mentions during the process.

It'll bring back your phone to the original (factory) state. Backup everything in your phone before resetting.

Also make sure that your battery is 100% charged before doing this. Alternatively, you can connect your phone to the charger during the Customization process. Let me know if it worked for you. :)
[XPERIA X2 General] danialray:
heeeey.i set that

thats great now

thank youuuuuu
[XPERIA X2 General] leagacyvonmuroda:
I have done what the TS has said.

However, after applying these my camera became laggy.

How do I fix this?

TIA
[XPERIA X2 General] Yulistana:
Hmmm,,,i miss this one.

I tried since a couple of day,,,,well,,,better improvement performance,,,but the battery consumption didn't significant improved. But nice tutorial.

Without slideview, spb panel etc,,,hmmm,,,still adapting with MS today only.
[XPERIA X2 General] AxxlPPC:
Charging Animation to Stop. How ?

Hi,

is anybody has resolved this yet ?
[XPERIA X2 General] Gladysng:
Hi, am having a problem with my x2. My phone restarts itself every once in a while(about 1/2 days?), and if that isn't annoying enough, my deleted SMSes from January to 4th march came back, and my more recent messages got wiped out. Is there a way to solve this problem? Because it takes a long time to delete my SMSes (I have more than 10000 in total) so I really don't want them to come back.
[XPERIA X2 General] dek@:
Try to reinstall software.Maybe help.
[HD2 General] polera257:
Is anyone cooking a rom for the T-mobile HD2 that uses the Microsoft bluetooth stack instead of widcomm. I am looking to see if Microsoft Voioce Command will work properly with this stack.
[HD2 General] holylove02:
yes. it would be nice to use my by keyboard and mouse again. LOL.
[HD2 General] TouchyDiamond:
Subscribing to this thread, too...
[HD2 General] polera257:
Very Unhappy

I could not wait for the HD2 to be released on Tmobile. I have been with them for almost 9 years. I thought finally I can use their 3G network with the HD2. The last thing I expected was for the basic functions of the phone to not work. The phone does so much and is very advanced yet the basic bluetooth functions have been left out. I have spoken with both Tmobile and higher level support at HTC and honestly neither is going to do anything about the bluetooth support on this phone.
[HD2 General] TouchyDiamond:
Well, if this is true, then it's becoming more and more clear that this is not something they just forgot to integrate - they omitted it on purpose, like the second camera (the second big fauxpas for a "high end phone"!), in order to have something left they can put into HD3 which makes people buy a new device... :mad:

I'm still wondering about the roms though - on PC I used to fight with BT stacks years ago. But it as always possible to install a different one, no matter what BT dongle I was using. Is it definitely impossible to create a rom with another stack? Is the stack somehow hard coded into the hardware?
[HD2 General] n11:
Great question...I'm hoping there is an answer.
[HD2 General] aSiD1712:
This would be so great if anyone could make my bt mouse running again on HD2. May be there could be a sourgeforce app or a MS BT stack cracked HD2-Rom.

If I only could use my BT mouse on HD2, may be in 2012 on WM8? Would be so nice for RDP, Virtual Machines, Gaming...

Someone tried on HD2 android with blueinput? Cannot get my BT working Android Running since my new Radio semms not to fit, will test later... I changed the BT working Android to the Phone working Android that is running fine on new Radio...
[HD2 General] d0ug:
I was able to get a BT keyboard to work on my HD2 with stock rom. I never tried a mouse.
[Hero CDMA General] alioto1:
Has anyone come up with a fix for the laggyness and battery drain of the nexus launcher?? thanks
[Droid Eris Android Development] josborne06:
Is there a way to go from the 2.1 leak v2 to 2.1 root? or even 2.1 leak v2 back to 1.5. I need to send my phone back due to many errors and can not send it back until I can either get back to 1.5 or possible fix it with root.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gohamstergo:
THERE IS NO ROOTING AND NO DOWNGRADING FOR ANY LEAKED VERSIONS!

why wont anyone do a simple search or READ a few threads? geez. Lets keep a tally. this should be, say, the 430598th time this has been asked

i think we need to make a sticky, with a thread title as such -^ also mod please move to General section
[Droid Eris Android Development] WalkingTaco:
no. read the forums
[Droid Eris Android Development] josborne06:
Ive read many different forums. I didn't know if anyone has found a way yet. So should I just call my insurance and tell them I lost my phone?
[Droid Eris Android Development] AOD13:
I have read elsewhere either on these forums or another forum site that you can turn in the phone with the leaked 2.1 on it with no problems from Verizon.

Please search around and you will find reference to this issue.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jcase:
Don't bother using my work if you committing fraud against Verizon.
[Droid Eris Android Development] greatestfall:
thats fairly hypocritical of you since you didn't have a problem with any of the devs with 2.1 leaks doing it on IRC.
[Droid Eris Android Development] luca108:
i returned my leaked eris to best buy and got a new one and rooted it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] nimdae:
By nature of your work existing, this is quite the hypocritical comment. Just saying.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jcase:
Really? Now how many have I banned from my irc server? How many people went to forums griping about it?
[Droid Eris Android Development] jcase:
How about you reading the license agreements that my stuff is based on?Even tho the license that comes with the phones allows us use of the proprietay bits, I guess I have to take down the ONE thing I have that uses them, the 1.5 rom. Thank you for setting me straight.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jcase:
Downloads to my work with google prorietary bits are now removed, and gave you proper credit for pointing me straight.

FYI everyone else, all my PATCHES use either A) open source code, or B) code by me.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jcase:
FYI Nimdae, since you work for Verizon, maybe you can answer this question.

When are Eris users getting an official 2.1?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
sorry to see u go jcase ,, havent been on here a long time but u helped me alot thanx for ur hard work and help
