more info

I may need to include that I am running FroYo on it, and the sd card had to be reformatted, so there is no other OS on the card. I didnt know if i had to have the stock image on the card or the program did it... By the way, with FroYo,

mflops 40.99... amazing

I keep trying to do search and keep getting errors, so I'm gonna take a chance and hope I don't get flamed :D I use advanced task killer, but it doesn't show the apps that I installed manually, IE not downloaded from market. Is there any convenient way to kill these apps?
[EVO 4G General] Vandam500:
They should appear just like the other apps from the market. Did you try refreshing it to see if they show up?
[EVO 4G General] Zori:
Hmm.. I don't see a refresh option in the menu. Only setting help and info. I thought there would be something in the setting tab, but I can't find anything
[EVO 4G General] Vandam500:
Try killing your task manager and opening up again. If the programs you installed outside of the market are running in the background then they will show up along with the others. Also, try another task killer.
[EVO 4G General] knives of ice:
Download and use autostarts in the market
[EVO 4G General] Zori:
Wow, I tried turning it off and on a few times and ATK finally found em. Thanks! Much appreciated, let's hope it keeps it up!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] TrickstaICT:
Hey all.

I cant seem to get android Froyo 2.2 Beta to boot on my TD2,

It freezes on "Creating a New Data Store"

Can anyone give me a hand?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] sandman01:
Hi TrickstaICT!

Just copy an older 2.1 XDAndroid on your sd card and start it with your favorite StartUp.TXT

This will create a data.img on your sd card. (approx. 256MB)

Use the generated data.img with the new 2.2 XDAndroid Froyo build.

I hope this will help you, I had the same problem if I try to generate a new data store.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] TrickstaICT:
Damn it.

Now kernal is panicing.

not syncing

does the partition have to be ext3? the same as andriomnia?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] bilb0t:
Hello,

I'm facing the same problem.

Can anyone be more specific for: "

Use the generated data.img with the new 2.2 XDAndroid Froyo build." ???
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] shanedean:
I think what they mean is to run the 2.1 package which will create a data.img on the SD card, put this somewhere safe then when you run the 2.2 Froyo package, use this as your data.img. This means that the Froyo package doesn't have to create a data store. It's not perfect (apparently) and causes some issues but is a kind of workaround.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] hammadmirza:
i copied the datastore from 2.1, kernel panics :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] sandman01:
use newest rootfs and

zImage from 2010.07.02 thats the newest that works for me on my TOPAZ
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] TheJokah:
I second that. My topa210 will only use 7-2 zimage package with newest rootfs and a saved data.img. Works great though.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] Cissmayazz:
Yes its easy.

So download the 2.1 build. Copy all files to your SD Card.

Now download the 2.2 build, but only copy System.Ext2 to your SD Card, overwriting the 2.1 System.ext2.

Now just copy the startup.txt to the root of your SD Card and run haret.exe.

Wait and wait en voila!

Android boots!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faceeat:
Is there ANYTHING I can do to make this device work in a sensible way?

I mean I find it deeply unsettling that I have yet to see anyone else complain about the huge design flaw this phone has.

That being, when I receive a call, the touch screen activates at the slightest touch. That doesn't make sense because I don't tie it to my wrist... I carry it in my pocket or my belt clip and even in my belt clip it presses random spots on the touch screen. I want it to not do that, first of all. In fact I don't want the phone to even turn on touch activation until I give it clearance to turn on, because otherwise it will stay there and randomly press buttons until I check my phone and realize someone called me an hour ago.

Because that's the thing—I need it on vibrate a vast majority of the time, I can't feel it vibrate but it'll open random programs or do random crap. I can always tell because whenever I decide to reach down and check my phone I feel it overheating, and I think, "Yup. Someone called me and I didn't hear or feel it vibrate." That's actually ridiculous. That's severely headache inducing at how completely backwards it is without the option to change it in settings. At least not that I've seen. As I've said, no one else is complaining about it... so what are you guys doing?

I'm sorry but as I said, this phone drives me nuts. I can't help but feel angry just by talking about it.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wurmzz:
Actually you could either turn on the screen lock so that even if it turns on, it's locked and none of the buttons or screen touching will do anything, and the machine will turn itself off after a while.

Or,

you can install BSB tweaks and set it so that the phone doesn't turn on unless you tell it to.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enigma1nz:
Most of the time it's not the device, it's the user. Especially obvious when reading user reviews and most users claim features don't exist when in fact they never found them. Or phone is capable of certain things, but the user is not only unaware, they are angry the features are not there.

GET TO KNOW YOUR DEVICE or use available tweaks and information :mad:
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paul c:
use a loud ringtone, use vibrate, use a screenlock program... (S2U2 is excellent, but you may find it complex).

Or extend the phone ring time before it goes into voicemail (that's in phone settings I recall)

The phone is not perfect, but it can very easily be configured to avoid accidental answering or not noticing the call in the first place. That said, the standard options are not good...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faceeat:
To be fair, I'm not stupid, but I am pretty ignorant when it comes to stuff like this. Bear in mind I've been using an old flip phone for the majority of my life, and I've spent a good amount of time looking through my X1 for a setting that would make my phone work better. I've found nothing that would keep the touch screen off for incoming calls or texts, which genuinely irks me.

Yes I tried locking the phone for a while, but it's a pain getting a call and then not being able to answer in time because I notice it late, pull it out, and then have to unlock it to answer. Also, locking the phone didn't stop the touch screen from turning on and pressing random buttons... it was just that with it locked there were no buttons to press except the digit code and I might be right to guess that my phone would lock me out completely if I randomly hit the wrong buttons enough times. Also the backlight was draining the battery and it was overheating anyway. It didn't make a difference.

I also spent a generous amount of time on the internet looking for solutions, but as I've said, no one else seems to have had my problem, so I was certain I wouldn't find a solution until I asked for myself. Believe me, I wouldn't have posted anything here if I'd found one.

Anyway I'll try "tweaking" it as was suggested. Thanks for the help.

(Also bear in mind having to "tweak" a device DOES suggest it was badly designed in the first place, which was kind of my point. Paul C knows what I'm talkin' 'bout.)

Peace.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper89:
First of all tweaking does not mean a phone was badly designed, tweaking or modding gives the option to add, remove, or change anything you want in your phone. With your logic every smart phone was badly design becuase everybody tweaks their phones:rolleyes:. And what you are saying makes no freaking sense. How can you not answer a call when your phone is lock, the incoming call pops up on the screen? How is your phone turning on and pressing random buttons when it's locked lol? How about you give more info on what rom you are using becuase what your saying makes no dam sense.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faceeat:
Oh, come on, man. It was my first smart phone. If I wasn't giving it the benefit of the doubt that I COULD do something about my issues, I would've taken the phone back. Instead I posted here and asked, because I was fed up using the search function trying to figure out what I was doing.

I'm sure most people don't tweak their phone to fix rudimentary issues that cripple the usability of the phone.

Don't get me wrong, I'm GLAD my issue can be fixed, and thank you. I'm just saying. I didn't know, and the result of not being able to figure it out was me being upset with the device.

Do you want to continue this pointless argument or can we just drop it now?

The screen turns on regardless of whether or not it's locked. It rings, and the screen turns on, but instead of allowing you to answer right away, it prompts you for the pin to unlock it. So I CAN answer a call, just sometimes not fast enough because of factors I already specified.

And if I'm not aware I'm being called, when I miss the call the screen stays on in my belt clip, and every time the screen is touched, the backlight remains on. Since it keeps being touched, it never shuts off. And the only buttons on the screen are the pinpad numbers, so it just hits those instead. This is how I got the phone.

So, since whether I lock it or not I get the same annoyances, I choose not to lock it.

Also I have yet to find a tweak that keeps the phone's touch response off for receiving calls, and turns off the screen entirely when or if the call is missed. I would really benefit from something like that to prevent it opening random programs or texting landlines with "aufgfdjkw"...

I'll keep looking.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper89:
For the 2nd time what rom are you using? 6.1 or 6.5? If it keeps being touched on your belt clip why not just keep your phone in your pocket instead? Also what is your backlight power time settings, like what is the time intervals of when you screen shuts off? Also maybe the latest version of the lock app S2U2 V2.41 might solve your problems. I've had my phone for 8 month's and have never experienced what you are saying or herd of but then again I don't keep my phone on a beltclip I keep it in my pocket;). It sounds like S2U2 2.41 should help because it gives access to those options you want to change in the S2U2 settings.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] altae:
This seems to be a rom problem. My phone does nothing you described. After the screen goes off it does not react to any touching of the screen at all. When its in standy mode (screen off) and a call comes in it reactivates the screen and the call can be answered either by touching the corresponding area of the screen or by pressing the green hardware button. The same behaviour can be witnessed when I lock the phone prior to the screen turning off. So I can say I have never experienced problems like you. My phone runs the latest stock rom for Switzerland (German) and is not branded.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper89:
My phone is the same way but I'm on a custom rom. He might have to flash is phone if nothing else works.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hungry81:
Everyones different, every one wants something to work a little differently.

As mentioned previously there are many alternitive unlocking programs

Slide to unlock 2 (S2u2) is very good, customisable and free.

Here is the website http://ac-s2.com/ you can also find threads about it on XDA Developers.

I am currently using Throttle lock, Provides extra security without having to use pins, customisable, and free here is the website http://www.throttlelauncher.com/portal/Products/ThrottleLock/throttlelock-09

Once again you can find threads about it on XDA Developers.

to use either of these programs, just download the .cabs from the websites, transfer them to your phone and click on them to begin installation.

hope that helps.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faceeat:
6.1

Yes, but I'm pretty sure no one wants their phone wasting batteries.

What difference would that make? I keep other things in my pocket that are probably more likely to hit the touch screen. Besides, I got the phone before I got a belt clip. It was in my pocket first. I thought the belt clip would make it better. Since it doesn't I still prefer the belt clip for the phone's accessibility.

On that screen in the settings there's an option to turn off the device after a certain amount of time. Before, when I was in those settings, I had it unchecked, thinking it would turn the phone off completely. But it does exactly what I want—it disables the touch screen after a minute.

Still, that's not a perfect solution, but it helps a lot. That plus the lock app should make it well within working standards. Thank you.

SORRY FOR WASTING YOUR TIME GUYS. I take back what I said. I'm now an enlightened individual. I can build rainbows with my mouth.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doministry:
Maybe a magnet on your belt phone keeper

turns on the phone...........

Recently I also discovered that keeping X1 close to a second mobile phone MAKES X1 randomly open apps by itself....

Crazy but true!!!!

Once somebody calls you and quits,

without your reaction there's no way you can activate anything if your phone is locked with a code....
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sean0r:
A short press of the power button suspends the screen? lol.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paatnoah:
I was about to say it but sean0r beat me to it (by weeks lol)

I felt the same thing when I first bought the phone (1-2 hours).

I just usually set my backlight to turn off after 10-30 secs. (Settings->Power->Advance Tab)

And I also don't use the lock feature since I think it's more of a hassle then to just turn the screen off (power button, like sean0r said) then turn the screen on again when I'm about to use it. It basically does the same thing like the lock/unlock button, it help prevents unwanted screen touch, only I feel it's way way more faster than the unlock button (even if you configured the lock/unlock button, to lock quicker).

And since you're new, if you haven't used any of the great custom ROMs you should definitely try it!! Read the guides carefully though, I warn you it might be addictive =D

The custom ROMs and this great XDA community is what made me keep this phone despite this phone's poor poor poor poor poor...I mean horrible build quality! Sony should thank these guys...seriously...

Sorry for bumping an old thread...

I'll rebump - flash Mr. Rusch's Touch X ROM if you are a noob. It is slick, stable, and well configured by default.

It isn't the flashiest, but it is stable and convenient. I highly recommend for beginners.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoLLAJoLLA:
Sounds like you're using the actual security lock with password, try just using the keylock where you slide it to use it. (Like iphone)

regardless, I think you should flash energie rom on your phone.

Ive flashed many many roms including spikegottis, 826x, and even various Titanium roms but energie is the best overall for speed, apps and reliability

Winmo 6.5.5 - 23563. My version 1.03.

Original themes and apps.

Full. Only removed GPS COPILOT.

I've fixed the original phone dialer, so no unwanted scroll bar at the right of the dialer, however no need to copy or handle phcanrc. :cool:

Replaced TaskManager with MMTaskManager so no superposition of icon and date in the upper right corner of the home screen.

Edit:

To use MMTaskManager : (thanks fktsndr) After you flash the rom, go to the program files directory of your device, go in the MMtaskManager directory, open that program, tap Menu, tap Settings, select Load On Startup, Enable Taskbar Launch, Run In Background. Tap Done and OK. Soft reset! From now you can tap the left top of the screen to launch MMTaskManager.

[Vibrant General] whodatfever:
Coming from a Nexus One. I know you can achieve root but here is what I want to know:

Has Samsung provided the tools so developers can begin cooking ROMS?

If so, is it possible to cook a Froyo version so we don't have to wait for Samsung's typically lazy *** to push it out?

Is it possible to turn off touch wiz and use stock Android?

These are my primary concerns and I appreciate any help with them.
[Vibrant General] gsvnet:
TouchWiz enhances usability of the phone, and actually adds some useful features. You should check out the video from MobileBurn here:

http://www.tmonews.com/2010/07/samsung-vibrant-meta-review-extravaganza/

I don't think it's something you'll really want to turn off.
[Vibrant General] speoples20:
After my using the Behold 2 for a week I held no hope for Touchwiz but after using it in my store today and watching some reviews I actually like it. I would like root but I'm not sure if I want to give up Touchwiz.
[Vibrant General] whodatfever:
So rooting removes touchwiz?
[Vibrant General] chaoscentral:
no, it just gives a user "admin" rights now more no less
[Vibrant General] 2071:
the closest thing you can get to froyo is the froyo looking launcherpro which also removes the touchwiz 3.0 at the same time making it run faster, i currently have it on my g1 with a 2.1 rom and it's running super quick.

look up "samsung galaxy launcher" and you should find a couple of videos of it running launcher pro on youtube

oh did i mention this app is free and does not need rooting to work?:)

[EVO 4G Accessories] sablesurfer:
Ok, didn't see this one anywhere so here goes.

When I ordered my Seidio Limited Edition, I also added the screen protectors from Amazon as they weren't too expensive. There are two to a pack and I got them today along with the case.

These are pretty darn thick compared to the ones I have used in past on my Raphael. The kit comes with a pretty nice little fabric wipe for cleaning up the screen. They are so thick that you really can't do the peel off a bit and then peel and press as you go.

I set mine up in an unused work room at work...much less dust than in my house with animals and a bachelor. I got the screen cleaned and the cover on pretty quickly, with only three re-alignments. There was one bit of dust/string that got in...I got it out by pulling up the protector (not hard if you use a tack) and using a rolled up bit of scotch tape to grab the dust. This kept my finger prints off the inside of the protector.

Two things are immediately obvious. The protector is NOT as wide as the screen is. So you have to try to line it up in the middle. The new limited case only JUST covers up the open space on the screen. So at least that is good. The second thing is no hole for the front camera. The protector just goes right over it.

I tested the front camera with one pic...and it seems to turn out ok. Not sure if the color was washed out or if that was just the camera. There was no 'obvious' sign that the protector was adding any lines or distortion to the pic. Since I won't be using that cam a whole lot, it really shouldn't bother me too much.

From what I read, there doesn't seem to be a protector with a cut out for the front camera. Very odd.
[EVO 4G Accessories] sablesurfer:
Oh, I forgot to add...screen responsiveness seems to be a tad on the less sensitive side. You do have to make sure you are really touching the screen. Just a quick swipe seemed to be missed.
[EVO 4G Accessories] docprego:
I have to say I didn't notice this at all when I tried these. Now I'm using a Steinheil and the touch responsiveness feels the same as the Seidio, which is excellent.
[EVO 4G Accessories] sablesurfer:
Another thing that I have noticed...just to add to this...

The packaging says..."Anti-glare and anti-fingerprint finish" Well this is neither. Fingerprints are exremely noticible and the glare at times has been horrible. I can see every move I hve made on the screen now.

(Also, with the case on it is not just a simple wipe along pant leg or shirt sleeve to get them off....)

re: touch sensitivity...went back and tried again, not sure, but seems less sensitive, but not willing to take off to test without
