curse you with you facts and actual knowledge!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trevorwhopkins:
Yes this is depressing. I got the incredible bc I figured biggest network most users best Android phone hands down, period .... development would be nuts. Then again its only a month. I was more patient before the Evo was rooted pre release. Considering changing to a phone that is not extraordinarily locked down. Sadly this is my first phone ever that I liked every single thing about and had zero problems with. But one I need WiFi router , two I need led flashlight, three I want froyo.

Ya buying an Android with Sense is not the best decision if you were expecting any of these things quickly. I still think the EVO is a oddity but I am sure it helped to be handed out at I/O to 5000 devs and wanna be devs(reporters). When Sense is marketed as the OS HTC can then change/add to the security that Android has standard because they are protection their property. Where as plain Android phones can't be changed or they would be falsely advertising the OS that is installed. Besides Android is accessible to anyone why would HTC spend time/money to secure it?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 1wayjonny:
Sorry DeeBG-son =)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] boostdscoob:
because Sense UI is HTC proprietary material.

if the phone was offered with just google UI, there'd be little reason to lock it down, other than to cut down on noob f***up return rates.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shinkukage09:
First off, yes, my phone has a different firmware then what it came with. Fresh Toast, to be exact. Recently I flashed Superuser Permissions 2.1 into it as the preinstalled one would not work. Got everything working just fine, and got setCPU working. I set the max to around 768, with the minimum to about 614. Worked just fine for about...2 hours. Now, it lags so badly that LauncherPro likes to crash.

My question is, is it me overclocking my phone to close to the max thats causing lag, or is it just that LauncherPro is just buggy? Because it's really getting dang annoying.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chfields:
Try using typical troubleshooting steps, down clock and see what happens. If that doesn't work, remove launcherpro and try again, etc....

Does anyone know where I can find a generic image of Android 2.1? I have a Commtiva Z71 a.k.a Cincinnati Bell Blaze (which runs on Qualcomm® MSM7227, 600 MHz) and no one has released instructions on how to root it or do really anything fun with it yet.

[Hero CDMA General] Papa Smurf151:
if u went to fresh 2.1.1 its because it is an odexed rom

if u went to fresh 2.1.2 then it should work cause the rom is deodexed.

how are you installing the aosp dialer

In the last time, we have many closed treads here. Some new user are asking something. The second answer is mostly: " Come on you don`t search, or something else. The third answer is from the mod: Closed Tread.

Sorry, but in the mean time, this is a german "kindergarten".

Do we have not so many space on the server, or why is this in the last time so often happened ? Let the tread open, and if someone is giving a answer, he can do that, and the other people can read or laugh. :)
[XPERIA X1 General] Lokatho:
I don't agree, since this forum is very large (2,385,084 members and 404,458 threads). To prevent it from cluttering, but also to keep the forum clean and easy to find the information you need I find it necessary to close and or move threads which are obsolete/duplicate and threads which are clearly opened without searching.

So I am glad we (Xperia subforums) have an active moderator who is keeping a close eye on the subforums.

I find that it does wonders for the clearness of the subforums!
[XPERIA X1 General] demichiel:
Agreed, when I look for a solution for a problem, I want the [FIX] topic instead of dozens of 'My ... is broken, help meee!'-topics..
[XPERIA X1 General] Draken Korin:
not many answers yet, what a shame...

ok, I'd like to add my point of view to be considered and commented on

the last months (nearly all of the time I'm a member here) the X1 forums got very little moderating activity, mostly because those moderators assigned to this part either got a new device and "moved" on and/or focused their activity on development/cooking

the little moderating that took place within that time happened when one of the other moderators "visited" here or were personally notified to interact on one behalf or the other

I'm and have been quite active especially on X1, trying to help, now on a somewhat larger scale, so it's small wonder moderating activity increased significantly after my nomination

in contrast to the last months this might appear a lot of interaction from me on behalf of the forum, in my opinion it's now on a reasonable/normal level

I'm doing nothing than abiding by and ensuring the forum rules, which I'm sure everyone here read at least once...

in case you think my actions unjustified, tell me about it

I've seen lots of threads opened on issues raised and successfully answered numerous times already, some even still on the same page as the new one

a lot of my previous posts derive from helping with other members questions whose answer I often had to research myself...which I did...and I then often wondered: when I'm able to find the solution (mostly within minutes) why didn't the one who opened that new thread find it him-/herself? no search? to cursory search? too lazy?...

this all adds up and we are not only talking about X1, it's all over the forum so it's not as limited as (only) talking about server capacity, we are especially talking about misleading search results, cluttered forums, untidiness, confusion, forum losing appeal to users... and all that's related

keeping threads open would/will/did lead to off-topic comments, adding to above mentioned problems

I like a good joke/funny comment as anyone here, but that's usually not dev/app/theme related and normally does not belong there (at least not on a noticeable scale)

if you are interested in that kind of threads/discussions visit forum general discussion and it's subs (like off-topic)

I also think you haven't been in a German kindergarten for some time, they have a good set of rules there, too, for the kids as well as for the grow-ups :)

so, comments/opinions/feedback pls

Mod edit: not dev related, moved to general
[XPERIA X1 General] Muo:
DK you said it all, and I completely agree.

A perfect example is what is happening in the Android development board for the Sony Ericsson X10. Without the mods moving and closing topics, it would become a clutter of useless threads making the good threads lost. Even now there are more threads moved or closed than open :eek:

Even your current post does not follow the guidelines as to how the title should look...

Things are surprisingly simple and straightforward here: pay attention, read, search and search again prior to asking/posting. Nobody wants to do someone else's research. Between the stickies on each board, forum rules, moderator's announcements and extremely helpful mods like DK, there really should be no confusion one

Likewise, any post I have seen made by DK have been polite, respectful and always points the user in the correct direction prior to closing threads.

So thank you to all mods for cleaning up the forums!

Considering this is XDA-Developers (a developer based community) I believe most users should stay silent (since they are not developers) unless it is helpful to the community. I myself personally really do not like sifting through threads asking the same questions that are answered it in the stickies :confused:

.
[XPERIA X1 General] Pasquillant:
reading instead of asking

hei all!

first: i agree to dk and muo.

why?

why are we here? we use a fine peace of hardware and are unsatisfied with the software of SE and MS and we are more ore less tech geeks.

the original x1 with wm6.1 and panels does anything a phone has to do and much more.

but if you decide that is not enough and flash a custom rom (and to loose your warranty if you dont restore stock spl) is'nt it reasonable to learn sth about what you are doing? at least the different roms, the different ways of flashing.

i'm a "dumb user", i dont know much about cooking and to be honest im to lazy to do this but im so happy about the great work of all the devs here. i tried many roms in GER and WWE, in sense2.1 or 2.5, clean roms and others with lots of apps, i use uc and sashimi and this is my second post. why? because i read the great tutorials and use the search function and i found ALWAYS a solution for my problem.

a question like "i flashed R3AA013. why do i still have wm6.1?" is unnessesary.

to cut it short my opinion is: be willing to learn a little bit about what you are doing or leave your x1 as it is!

cheers!

(and sorry for my poor english...)
[XPERIA X1 General] sonus:
The best way to clear up user confusion is to post a link to a wiki at the top of the device forum. Closing threads doesn't answer any questions or make searches easier. It makes them more difficult as before you would have maybe a link to an old thread or some helpful search terms mixed into newbie questions, but instead you have a whole mess of unanswered closed questions and one answer thrown into that haystack.

Btw, "I, myself, personally..."? Are you kidding me? You may as well just say "I and me, and Muo.." if you want to be that ridiculously redundant.
[XPERIA X1 General] NEO130:
Thx - That`s what I mean with this tread !!:)
[XPERIA X1 General] Muo:
It already is, the announcement at the top has multiple links including the wiki...

Actually they do, when I see the "closed thread icon" I know to not go in there. Likewise, if there is a "moved thread icon" I know that it has nothing to do with the board I am in. Seems like that answers my questions of reading the thread or not.

Speaking of redundant and ridiculously...

Not really, "I myself personally" is perfectly fine. Yes it is a bit redundant, and I apologize for making you read one extra word. Forget about sentence structure and stop trying to flame, there was no reason for that. Also if you are going to quote me, do it correctly without the commas. How you quoted me is worse than how I presented it in the first place.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] WGN88:
Hi everyone,

I got a HTC Tytn 2 and i have a problem with it.

When i boot the phone it starts up and goes into windows like every windows mobile phone.

But when i press the standby button my screen wont go out of standby.

Only when i reset the phone it will work again.

Anyone got idea's ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] WGN88:
Oke, since no one responded.

Is there any way how i can make the Power Button replaced with the Speed Dial Button.

Because i think my power button is broke.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] denco7:
Have you at least tried backing up your data and doing a hard reset first ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] WGN88:
Yes, and i have also tried to put on a new rom and even updated the radio.

Iam a little bit out of idea's...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ASCIIker:
here are some more ideas:

1. how to test the power button: you say pressing the power button does not wake up the device once it goes to sleep. conversely, does pressing the power button put the device to sleep while the screen is on? if the power button is unable to make the device go off->on as well as on->off, then the power button is likely broken. if pressing the button achieves on->off, then the power button is probably ok and some software issue becomes more likely.

2. how to enable wake on pressing ANY hardware button: look for an option in Settings. i can't tell you the exact option because the ROM i am using does not have a link for this option, but this option does exist 100% in stock ROM and in lots of other ROMs. it contains settings like "Lock all buttons except power button" and "Keep all buttons unlocked" or something similar. by using the second option, pressing ANY hardware button while the screen is off will wake up the device.

3. you can use AE button plus to perform even more advanced button (re)mappings.

4. just to be sure that your device is really working correct, does the screen wake up when you call the phone or when you receive a text message? if it does not wake up even then, then search for "sleep of death".
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] WGN88:
Thanks for the response.

I think its a Service of Death problem.

Because when i try calling/smsing it, it wont go on :mad:

The buttons do work then...hopefully there's a fix for this problem...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] WGN88:
Oke, i tried switching to 2G or 3G only but that didn't fix my Standby of Death.

I also bought a new sim card of vodafone so i wont get a No Sim error.

But what can i do now about it...it hangs like every 5 min...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] WGN88:
Okay, after a will testing, the phone hangs every time its almost like when iam on the road with my tytn 2 and placing it upside down, it hangs.

But when iam putting it in the leather holder it doesn't hang.

Any had the same problems ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Mr. Clown:
Maybe it's hardware and something is coming loose
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swagr:
I've been having this problem for a while. I'm currently running FroYo

which i thought would help but it doesnt. I've ensured that My Location

Services are on but Maps and Earth keep showing my location off the coast

of Jamaica when i'm actually in Antigua. I've travelled to numerous

countries and i'm always still in Jamiaca when running from cell towers. I

hardly ever get a satellite fix, i only get it using 'GPS Status' and it

still works like 1 in every 20 tries, but when i do get a fix it is

accurate. My latitude privacy setting is set to "detect location," my GPS

and Cell tower location are on so i dont know why i'm always near Jamaica.

When i use the third party app "Anntenna" it shows the cell towers i'm

connected to and gives me a near accurate location, but maps just does not

show me anywhere near where i am and sometime it just says "your current

location is temporarily unavailable." Is there something i can do to test

that the hardware is functioning as it supposed to? idk what else to do

I've tried: Clearing the maps data cache, uninstalling and reinstalling,

powering off, hard reseting, switching privacy setting in Latitude and

nothing seems to work..someone help!

[Desire General] :
Loved everything about the desire, but found out that HTC are no better than Apple for locking down there phones and bricking people who want to flash custom roms;(

This goes against everything i thought the android movement stood for!

So HTC you should hang your head in shame for scaring people that want to tweak and customise their phones to there own spec... This whole usb bricking thing has now made me sell my Desire and im buying a N1....

HTC Stink and Google rule!!!

JD;)
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Same thing can happen on the N1 too you know?
[Desire General] :
No it cant,

I have had a chat on twitter with paul tonight, its impossible to brick an N1;)
[Desire General] sruon:
You can brick anything, from a PSP to a Nokia 3310, just different chances/issues.
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Nothing's unbrickable - the N1 is just a lot harder!! ;)
[Desire General] sruon:
Yes, the problem with the Desire is that it "bricks" randomly without doing anything wrong apparently.

But I can promise you that if you update radio and pull out the battery during that on a N1, it will be bricked.

But that's not the sort of thing you're expected to do :p
[Desire General] :
hahaha;)

Yes very true;)

Well its very sad because i loved the desire, HTC killed the fun;(

Welcome to the world of N1;)))

and where did you get your N1?
[Desire General] Nuntius:
Don't forget to change your signature JupiterDroid!
[Desire General] JonesWTF:
I'm actually thinking of doing this myself. I love this phone, but without a stable root I just don't trust it. I just bought a great case for it as well! How much did you get for your Desire and where are you getting your N1?
[Desire General] samsanchez88:
Well thats not entirely fair is it? Yes there is a current issue with the flashing bricking phones but it's being worked on. When it get fixed and full root is acomplished (and i'm shure they will) it'll be just as "open" as the n1.

after all, if and when it's acomplished i'm sure i would miss the hardware buttons (i come from a touch hd and it is NOT the same!!) and maybe someday also the little bitty extra ram and personally, i prefer trackpad to trackball.

I get your frustration and you are entitle dto buy any phone you want but isn't this a bit exagerated?

Only my two cents!! Best of luck with the N1, it's a gras phone!

PS: maybe you shoud stick around and wait for Galaxy S (even if it is a Samsung!!!!)
[Desire General] ice2k2:
do you have any source for the information you post here ?

dont forget that some people can decide if they buy or not this phone just because what you've just said. if its not exactly as you said or maybe just a rumor\guess\wishful thinking - you can make many people disappointed.

It loads BUT farmville isn't setup to support touch screen yet.... You can't push any buttons in the flash game with the touch screen.

The flash games need to be optimized for phones... so it'll load but you'll need to wait till farmville optimizes their flash for touch screen, etc.

I haven't found any speed differences coming from Cyanogen 5.0.x to stock Android 2.2. Both are extremely fast and I don't see how it could possibly get faster

But I've found some things that I already miss from Cyanogen:

-battery percent indicator

-bits of customization like trackball color

-turn off vibration when pressing #s on dialpad.

-2.2's "apps2sd" version only works when you run out of internal storage

Not a dealbreaker but it's these tiny bits of customization that make Cyanogenmod oh so good.

Hello. I own an HTC HD2 (Tmobile version) and the Sony Ericsson HBH-IS800 bluetooth headphones. I am posting this here because I think this is more about the headphones.

I am having one heck of a time keeping the things connected. They will disconnect randomly during calls all the time with a full charge. I called Sony support and they said that they can only guarantee compatibility with Sony phones. To me the whole idea of having blue tooth is compatibility between devices.

My phone meets all of the stack requirements and I am just hoping someone technically inclined on here can recommend some things to try or perhaps some change tot he bluetooth stack or someting.

The form factor of the headphones are excellent. Small and unobtrusive. Sound quality is passable for blue tooth and I love the style of having the "inner ear" monitors.

The only other headphones I think I would like would be the Sennheiser MX W1 but they are cost prohibitive and you have to strap a whole different piece of hardware (the transmitter) to your phone.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
