[XPERIA X1 General] republicano:
Build quality isnt soo good - i noticed the black paint comes off so i got some cheap carbon fiber looking tape and covered it, its protects it well.

i hate the silver parts on it - thought it was metal till one day i noticed there was a crack and i haven't dropped yet,so i attached a piece of string on the bottom to decrease the chances of cracking on its own.

the battery is good in my opinion lasts 3,4 days for me

camera sucks because you have to press down on the button to take a picture which may put the phone focusing out of place, but htc sense roms with touch focus to take a pic is alot better

speaker is weak when outside.

i still think its a great phone, but i dislike the O\s when it comes to efficiency

the processor and its hardware should be fine for a phone.
[XPERIA X1 General] enigma1nz:
I acquired a second-hand semi-broken X1 very recently, after owning, testing, repairing or playing with most WM phones on the market. My own conclusion - not bad at all, most impressed by the screen.

Got Nuts ROM and sound optimizer loaded - like it even more, can't say I would ever be happy with the original ROM, but with TF3D ports I got everything I needed. Every device will have its own little quirks and bogies, none will ever be perfect, my only gripe with X1 is the keyboard, but only because I also keep my old trusty 128Mb HTC Universal as a second device and its QWERTY simply can't be beaten. Even Wizard has better keyboard!!!!

X1's keyboard is miserable and next to useless - button feedback is misleading, general inconsistency in pressure requirement and double-typing is common, buttons are fiddly, even for my small and adept fingers - all leading to slow and deliberate usage, which is counter-productive.

No issues whatsoever with anything else. From past experiences with X1s brought in for repairs, main issue is, of course, flex. But that is simply called 'all-slide desease' and should be expected regardless of the make and model.

I do believe the silver version is a much better option, silver metallic parts can be lightly polished and be as good as new, I have no peeling paint or other obvious cracks, apart from tiny, barely noticeable ones here and there. The battery door opening could be better thought out design-wise, even a simple spring lock would be preferable to peeling it off with your fingernails.

Optimizations, tweaks and various add-ons are out there - don't complain about lack of this or that - find the solution!
[XPERIA X1 General] enigma1nz:
Almost forgot - those complaining of lack of playback support for this or that - find the solution and you will be surprised how well everything will play. As far as browsers are concerned - nothing beats Opera 10 for me (well, for now anyway), got Opera mini 5 running on my LG Arena - had gutsful, but had no choice, so glad I don't have to on Xperia :D

I am told that Android 2.2 (Froyo) supports international character sets, and can display Hebrew, Arabic, Esperanto, etc. correctly.

Could someone please confirm this for me?

Just point your browser at a Hebrew or Arabic newspaper (ynet.co.il, for example) and tell me whether or not you only see square boxes.

If possible, I would also appreciate a screen shot, so that I can see whether it handles right-to-left text correctly.

Does anybody knows if this "Android Lock for iPhone" exist for hero too ?

i just love it to have on my hero .

Thanks

it does yes, go into settings, the location and security, the select, set lock pattern, set your pattern and then tick require pattern to unlock.

wow. thats amazing. first time i've seen someone asking for an iphone port of android feature to be available on android :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] bestfan:
on my opion, WM is my top choice, android? may be in the future

the no.1 advantages for WM is the register, however it is fat, and it is contains hard understanding digits, but this is the way we can modify the system, even something on the base. only WM supports modify register by handset users.

someone says andorid is open source, but i dont believe it is the keyword. WM is brother of WINDOWS, every app developer could use their tool to develop WM apps. For example, Visual Studio has WM compiler.

WM supports modify desktop themes, includ background, tool bars, and soft keys, i think almost handset users could use WM as normally without manila.

WM has too many levels of menu on system setting, but we always find what we want in the end, but android doesnt give us this.

on other hand, android's app is developing very fast, because it is open source, absolutely free, but android has too many things should learn from WM. app market and open source are good idea, but operating system is the keyword.

why WM still losing market? 64k color screen, tardy in app market, expensive handset especially in developing countries, no multi-touch and so on. but WM is the best operating system ever i used, sybian is very silly in touch screen, iphone os doesnt support multi-task.

may be android is my future choice couple years later, but now, WM is my choice.

this is my personal opion, i hope everyone discuss with me as a gentle. thanx

......yeah, the day that AT&T drops an up-to-par android device, I will never own another WM6.5 device again. Now Windows 7 Phone... hmmmmmmmmm
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] bestfan:
windows phone 7 disable install by cab and external sd is worst idea, large pre-installed ssd should rise handset's price, will loose huge market in developing countries.

windows phone 7 is closer to stupid iphone os, no external sd, no cab, no modified desktop. so sad

froyo is next generation android, i haven't try that, but i hope it will be more tasty.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dressanderc:
I agree, I believe android is the OS of tomorrow. I mean, eventually Google will own everything right? :D I've got my eye on the Dell Streak.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] bestfan:
if android supports modify register (or something like register), my next handset should be that...hah

i hope VODAFONE NZ will release more android or WM handsets, they only focus on sybian and iphone,......... bloody hell
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] tekgurl:
Android actually has a future

I love WM, but this is the last of the operating system as we know it. As a noob, I have done more with this phone than I ever thought was possible. Window Phone 7 won't allow us to do the things we have done with 6.5. Also, now with Microsoft changing the game, there will be no new apps developed for 6.5. The iPhone offers no freedom. Microsoft is following Apple in suit, limiting freedom. I don't understand Symbian. Palm is dead. So, my next handset will be an Android. I'm sure next to Apple, Andoid will be #2 system to develop for.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] 03hdfatboy:
The only problem with that is they hafta get apple's tit outta their mouth first :o and as long as they are pushing the iPhone you can forget it. :rolleyes:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Hamsteriel:
Palm was purchased by HP for several hundred million. Rumor is that WebOS will be used on a tablet HP will put out later this or early next year.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] DarkDvr:
Had N1 for 3 months now. Decided to stop by my old TP2 forum.. hehe.

I'll be short. I'd gladly spend another $600 and sell my last pair of socks to go from WM to Android device.

If you're still on TP2.. I dunno what to say not to make you feel bad... but seriously, throw that **** out the window and get an android phone, even G1 is better than anything WM-based.

I'm saying that as a guy who had WM phone since 4.0, back on Cingular 6125 (or w/e it was).

P.S: and trust me, the xdandroid that runs on TP2's flimsy hardware is nothing in comparison to a proper android device.

There. My $.02.

I'm looking at the Samsung Galaxy S (if it gets quickly rooted and can flash custom roms) or the Aava Mobile dev phone with the intel moorestown soc (which runs Meego and Android natively. WIN!).

I think both of these phones have advantages over the Streak.

Speaking of tablet/phones, have you seen the S7? Makes the streak it's lil biotch. lol

I wouldn't get either personally.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] cashless:
Yes, it's called Linux. ;) If ADB, recovery, SU and Busybox are working on a rooted Android phone, there's an amazing about of customization, fixes, etc (like regedit kinda) that can be done in Android.

There's even desktop apps that will let you modify android apps and let you push them back to the phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] NewbTrader:
LOL, I find that hilarious, because I find WM and windows's largest DISADVANTAGE/disaster is the registry. *nix is fully customizable/editable like windows, and arguably much more logical/less of a clusterf**k than the registry. I think WM is all but dead at this point. WM7 looks pretty weak, and android has already surpassed WM6.5 in a short time.

I have a tilt2, and there's no doubt my next phone WILL be an android phone. WM is a walking zombie at this point in my mind.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hvbelton:
When you get right down to the ACTUAL subject of this section, the clear winner TODAY is WM. While Android may be the future, WM is far more capable out of the box than Android; case in point, Exchange Sync. Granted, there are a growing number of apps available which help to level things a bit, the question was about the O/S's not them and app support. And the comment about the difference in hardware, well look at the EVO and HD2.

Now, I have no idea what the future will bring, but I do know that today, as a business user, Android does not meet all my needs. Those that will argue this will start with the apps available, which actually serves to make my point.

I am in this forum because of this question, but will make my own determination which suites me better and won't get caught up in any of the hype.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] cashless:
I don't know how "more capable" somehow equates to simple Exchange support, but if that's all that matters then RIM > Everyone else.

How about pointing to some other areas where WM is the "clear" winner? Because I can definitely point to many areas where Android trumps WM. Thanks for playing though.

Just flashed my phone from standard Orange ROM to a generic version as per this guide:

However, once the phone reboots, I am presented with a screen asking for the "SIM network unlock PIN" as my SIM card is refused.

Any ideas what to do??

Just run this one, It's not the latest, but it's got the right radio update for Orange supplied devices. Alternativly, you could have you desire unlcoked, then you could update the radio too.
[Desire General] huwwatkins:
Hi

You either need to flash back to your previous radio or get a sim unlock code - however these cost between £15-20.
[Desire General] jonloveslou:
Tried this method but unfortunately it returned "Error [140]: Bootloader Version Error"

How have other people managed to remove Orange branding with the updated radio version and not faced the same problem?

I don't really want to pay to unlock it as that would be of no use to me and I don't know of a site that's guaranteed to work with my Orange UK contract phone.

Hi everyone!

I stopped using the dodgy default keyboard and switched to the HTC keyboard. Wow, it's a whole new phone now! One question though, I use IM a lot (ebuddy, msntalk and msndroid) and everytime I go to the landscape keyboard, it fills up the whole screen so I cannot see what someone has just said while I'm typing. Is there anyway to stop the landscape keyboard from filling up the whole screen (similar to the iPhone)?

Thanks!

edit: updated files.

-fixed missed notif between midnight - morning

-level 0 was not behaving correctly, changed to 1 as minimum (still the same-minimum intensity)

no autolight app is working for me, maybe because I have t-mob version and sensor is behind black color of digitizer. dunno

It's still sensing 0 lumens on total dark or on interior light during day.

At 0 lums, backlight is still on 3rd level, which is burning my eyes off if I want to read some sheet before dozing off for night.

Whttp://xdaforums.com/images/editor/bold.gifhen this would switch hour after dark I never need to touch brightness again.

I made it for kaiser and now, being lazy, just change a little, so there is not a checkbox for auto, but entering value 99 would do it.

But no matter as you would use interface once or twice to set it, then it goes itself every day.

Hello,

I own an hd2 since december, really good phone-pda-gps-etc :p.

After i installed the official rom update at april i noticed that my gps apps (destinator7 and igo8) became a bit buggy.

Both apps work fine exept the fact that i cant type in both! I try to enter an address in destinator and i can type it only once. I cant use backspace on the destinator keyboard (Greek version) or correct anything conserning typing. This happens and also to other destinator apps that i installed in my hd2.

Also the same thing happens in igo8 but in different way. For example, let's say that i want to search for an address. After clicking (:p) on search function->address a letter is constanlty consecutively is being typed by itself! It's like a key is stuck on a pc keyboard....

Did anyone else face that problem?

There must be a solution, and i prefer to solve the igo8 problem that destinator...

I kindly request for your help!

Thanks in advance!

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tucka20:
Hi there, so I currently have an HTC hero, but I also am currently learning to drive. I am aware that I am able to sell my hero for around £160 and purchase a decent dream for around £90. However, I am wondering, as I have all my apps on my Hero, would it be possible to do a Titanium Backup on the Hero, and reinstall that backup on a dream (obviously both rooted)

Furthermore, do you guys recommend I do this, as I know the Hero has more ram, but is it THAT much of a difference?

Thanks

.apk's are .apk's... assuming the application it's self is compatable with the dream it will work.... id reccomend using ADB to drag the apk's out manually then reinstall via adb on your new phone. not only will you have a copy of the .apk's if you screw up, and you might learn a little about android in the process... all paid app's are linked to you google account and should be re-dl'ed from the market as some paid apps balk at manual installs...

however for your other question, there is a pretty big difference in the snappieness of the phone between the hero and 32b, if your network is compatable with the 32a rev then you may not be too disappointed....

i love my G1 but as soon as a keyboard HTC android phone with a 1Ghz + processor thats compatable with T-mo 3g rears its head, my G1 will find its self in a backup/dev phone role....
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tucka20:
i must say, the attractiveness of the physical keyboard is one that is bringing me back to the g1, as well as the save in money. As i believe i am aware(correct me if im wrong) the g1 can be overclocked to 528mhz. This is the speed that the hero runs at and, with the addition of the swap file, will this even the two phones out slightly. Please note i will be using a2sd so storage space will not be a problem.

Thanks for the info, ans i am happy that titanium will work fine :-)

[Desire General] Dvanen:
How do you charge?

I find that charging from a pc over USB takes forever, had to disable apn to be able to get somewhere! Think I got from 6% to 58% on a whole night watch (8 hours) though with some use. But with wall charger it takes about 2 1/2 hour with apn on!

The adapters may vary from piece to piece. Some might give more "juice" others less.

If you can, try to get hold of the original HTC charger and try to charge it with that.

As it was already mentioned - charging from PC via USB, or charging in car takes significantly longer than with wall charger.

yeah, all games should work fine now on the desire, with or without froyo. Don't forget the desire has a 1ghz cpu much greater than the iphone which is around 400mhz. Any game that struggles with framedrops is due to bad programming. I remember Raging Thunder 2, which also had a lot of framedrops in their earlier version. Later on, they updated the game code and the game now works fantastic.

Good games are starting to come now
[Desire Themes and Apps] rovex:
Its not that simple. Snapdragon is faster than the iPhone CPU for general purpose processing but the GPU in the iPhone is faster.
[Desire Themes and Apps] tomcat84:
But still what pina says is true: I mean, Asphalt 5 looks crap and runs slow when compared to Raging Thunder 2. The latter looks a lot better and runs totally smooth.

What I want to say is, the iPhone's GPU might be faster (I dont know the technical details here), but the Snapdragon is still fast enough for graphics as good as on the iPhone, when coded properly.
