[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spritable:
Is there any way to enable Google Navigation in non US/UK countries with Froyo? I found some instructions how to enable it, but they all were for older versions of Google Maps and I do not want to apply them to 4.3.1, which comes with Froyo.

- stock Froyo

- not rooted
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amelsfort:
I recently updated my phone to Froyo, but then I found out it wasn't synchronizing the contacts to my Exchange anymore. Mail and the calendar sync fine, but with the contacts I get an error telling me it couldn't connect to the server.

When I remove the account and recreate it, it works fine. But when I work (link to Google, edit, etc.) some accounts, the error appears again. I can't tell exactly what causes this, but I found out that when I recreate the Exchange-account, don't change anything or don't sync to Google everything works fine.

But yesterday I started syncing to Google again and now the error is back.

Does anyone know what could be the cause of this error? I already read that it could have something to do with SSL-certificates, but since it's working for mail and the calendar, I guess it's something else.

And could anyone explain how to enable the logging? I found this on the Internet: "To start Email debug logging, go to the Account screen in the Email application and type "debug" (bring up the soft keyboard, if necessary)."

But I wasn't able to get the debug-screen. Could someone explain the step above in more detail please?

I have just realised that My contacts are not syncing either since the update. I do sync also with gmail but exchange is where all my business contacts are.

If anyone else has this or finds what needs to be done to resolve it, that would be great.

Can you find out wot is stopping the phone from sleeping, also in the battery history the "time spent with screen on" is on 32m.44s yet the phone has been in standby for the last hr and half, can anyone tell me why this is,

thanks all
[XPERIA X10 General] Shonan_:
can any one help me out on this please...
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
Not without knowing everything you've got installed.

To view the battery info you've obviously had to have the screen on to view it, so that doesn't really mean anything.
[XPERIA X10 General] beno1:
Can't post links, but look in the Extended battery thread in the Accessories subforum, I posted a way of doing this on page 7 I think.
[XPERIA X10 General] Shonan_:
Ok I will take a look, I think iv norrowed it down to 2 thing, juice defender or adw launcher, I unistalled both of them and in 3 half hrs iv dropped 4 % with a little use
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
Won't have been adw.. But could have been a faulty widget you had on there.. ?
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
One thing you should check out is background syncing for mail etc. On the later (024 and 026) it's less of a drain on the battery but still eats through it pretty fast. On the older versions mine wouldn't even last a day with background syncing on since it never went to sleep.
[XPERIA X10 General] pshdo:
This could be the problem:

If you use ADW and have a task manager installed to automated kill tasks every time the screen goes off, then the screen don´t turn off at all... (as far as i remember)

Try to eigther disable automated task-killing or set it to 1 or 2 hours instead...
[XPERIA X10 General] Shonan_:
i had un-installed all widgets of and just had juice defender and adw on i re-installed juice defender couple times and it help a little but was still going down fairly quick,

i made sure that all that was turned off and only ever sync manuelly, unfortunalty i cant hav the new update so im still on 16 :( this morning my display was on 4.5% and it had bin awake for couple hrs when i got up so it had slept at some point,

yeah iv took atk off now and letting the phone handle its self i also removed adw,

took my phone of a 100% at midnight and at 8 this morning it only dropped 5% tho my signal upstairs aint all that great, its had HEAVY use this morning and 25 hrs later im on 65% :D which is great, the true reading will be tomo in work with BT on for most of the 8 hr working day,

Cheers for the advise guys...

I would really like to have a location app that periodically posts my gps location to my defined url (blah.com/mylocation/?x=&y=) and i can also fake my location with predefined cordinates. Making list with predefined locations and selecting one from there.

App UI:

Big button to start or stop sending info

Last successful update time

Next update time

Options in menu should be something like that.

"Address to post location" - textbox

"Period" - select (1min, 2min, 5min, 10min,15min,30min,60min,120min)

"Run background" - checkbox

"Fake location" - checkbox

"Select location from list"- selectbox (disabled if fake location disabled)

"Use current location" - checkbox (disabled if fake location disabled, enables/disables "Select location from list"

"Send no information" - button (posts empty x= and y= arguments or some new arguments eg noinf=true, stops sending info)

I could also manage predefined locations:

Add new location: name, xpos, ypos

Add current location to list: name

This app would be useful to show my location on my webpage or something similar

It seems like you want a very specific problem solved that not many others have, except if you can describe the use for it.

Anyway, meanwhile can you sign up for a Googl App Inventor account and start developing it yourself in a graphical development environment that doesn't need the user to have much programming (if any) experience. appinventor.googlelabs.com

1) STOP BUMPING YOUR POSTS! you will not get an answer sooner!!

Please give more information if you can...if english is not your first language please try explain as best you can in as much detail as you can thank you :)
[XPERIA X10 General] lildic:
yes i want to reflash the original android 1.6 firmware.
[XPERIA X10 General] kmaximax:
Most probably the easiest safest way is to just use the SEUS sony update tool :)

note this will wipe all your content not stored on your memory card so make sure you have a backup of contacts etc first!
[XPERIA X10 General] kzkalra:
google pc companion. download the version relevant from the sonyericsson website and install on your pc. connect your phone to pc usb and follow the instructions.

you'll follow the simple instructions for software update. in case it is already updated then you can use the repair option to reinstall the software. okay?
[XPERIA X10 General] kmaximax:
From experience ..

a) PC COMPAINION usually comes preinstalled as part of the software thats on the MEM card that came with the X10

and

b) PC COMPANION never seems to get the latest updates for most people at least on here?! ..... so they use SEUS that will/should download the latest updates as soon as soon as they are available

finally ..

c) SEUS also offers the repair option it offers you the option to INSTALL on the SEUS interface :)
[XPERIA X10 General] lildic:

Hi,

there is a problem with my device, which is in inaccurate reading of the display position. When I touch it somewhere, the device reads a different position what makes it completely unusable.

I tried a hard reset, recalibrated many times and nothing helped. When I do hard reset it works, but when it turns on it dose not.

Does anyone experience such a problem? And do you, guys, have any idea how to repair it? Thanks very much,

P.S. It is not Diamond 2, but Diamond.

[Touch 3G General] frailchicken:
Hey guys,

first, im sorry for opening a new thread, but none of the other threads helped me.

I bought a HTC Touch 3G Clone in China:

ROM: 2.706.2

QUALCOMM 7225

528 Mhz

RAM: 192MB

NEXPERIA SY.SOL 5209

Windows 6.5 Chinese

HardSLP doesn't work. It cant get a connection to the phone, although ActiveSync has one.

Then i tried to upgrade with my 1gb sd-card. But none of the button-combinations of this forum work.

I tried some other comb. and found three of them:

green button + red button + power --> reset config

vol up + vol down + power --> calibration screen

vol up + red button + power --> a white screen with "downloading"-label

vol down + red button + power --> a green/white screen saying: Checking valid image file

I think the last one is important to install a new rom. After 10 seconds it says:

Step 3 error while updating

Card operate: read retry timeout

Then i tried several rom-versions posted here. Nothing happens.

I just want an english operating system... :mad:

I really hope someone can help me. Its driving me crazy...

Thank you for your help.

Buddy close this thread :) :) & go 2 Touch 3G General -where u have posted ur thread- & read other threads, many can help.

Also http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=657212 links.

Search more, u will find stuff. If u follow the General forum related 2 cloams (clones) u will get more! :) U shall use a ROM working 4 cloam. Mine is T3238+, I'll try 2 help as far as my knowledge lets me!
[Touch 3G General] frailchicken:
Thank you for your help.

Sure, I can post my problem there. But I already read them and it didnt help. I tried both of the ROM-files. I get the same error:

Step 3 error while updating

Card operate: read retry timeout

I have a 1GB sd-card, formated in standart windows-fat-format.

I think there must be another button-combination for the update mode.

But like i said none of the combinations mentioned in the board work, and there are plenty of them...

In your second link I have seen:

3) Boot into TF Update Mode by holding the Green + Confirm + Red + Power Button

I tried it, nothing happens (if the confirm button ist the round big one in the middle)... What should I do?
[Touch 3G General] pringo:
Hi again,

Yes, confirm = big button; only use the ROMs 4 cloam phones not those 4 real 1s.

Seems that ur phone starts reading the file but stops in the middle, this means u have gone 2 update mode, only it can't continue; try another SD card.

-- Mine is Touch 3G T3238+. By far NO key comb. has worked 4 me. Seems that these cloams don't have a booter like other 1s.

I turned off my phone -> connected it 2 PC w/ WMDC -> Vol. down + green + power => a menu screen appeared!! w/ options like "update OS", "update logo" & ...

C if this works 4 u, though "update OS" did not work on my phone but mine has sum other problems 2, so u give it a try.

-- Turn ur phone off, insert the SD & just turn it on normally, this shall start reading SD.

Don't make the card as FAT 32 (though not possible!), only FAT or FAT 16.

Don't put the ROM in a folder on SD, let it be on the root directory.

-- Once open SD w/ ur phone -as u open e.g. "My document" - & c what message it shows? Does it even read the card??
[Touch 3G General] frailchicken:
Thank you very much for your help. I finally made it.

The trick ist to use a ROM with a .bin-format and rename it to "k3img.bin"

The update mode doesnt accept other names.

I flashed my phone to windows mobile 6.1 eng. version.

Now i have a bunch of other problems. :( Bad key mapping, no camera... and the biggest problem: the phone doesnt find any storage cards.

Under Settings-System-Memory it says: "Total storage card memory: Not installed".

What can i do? I need that extra storage.... And now i cant get into the update mode because windows deleted the old button map. Tried any combination, doesnt work.

Please help.
[Touch 3G General] pringo:
Hi again,

Well, I am a noob myself!! unfamiliar w/ these phones!! but I think keys problem is bcoz of the ROM; though it is installed, but it's not the proper 1!

Check http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=662170&highlight=QUALCOMM seems that this "first aid" has helped!!

Trying another ROM, BUT now that u can't use SD ......!! also the PC does not run .bin or .upr files!! Mayb if u change the file 2 .exe, it gets installed (of course after sync.!)

2 get 2 update mode, c if connecting 2 PC (my prev. post) does any good!!

I don't know any way; In sum days I shall go 2 the phone service center 4 my phone; I'll ask 2 c if they knew any way & [/I]if if they let me know about it[/I]!!
[Touch 3G General] frailchicken:
Hey, I finally got it! I installed WM 6.5 ROM and my SD Card works! Key mapping is bad and the cam doesnt work but I dont really need it. The storage card was important. Now im really happy.

Thank you so much for your help! The "first aid kit" really helped in combination with the k3 IDT. :eek: You are my hero!

If somebody experience the same problems, I can explain in detail what I have done!
[Touch 3G General] pringo:

there is a problem with my device, which is in inaccurate reading of the display position. When I touch it somewhere, the device reads a different position what makes it completely unusable.

Hi all

I was just wondering if anyone knew where the default system sounds were located in froyo. In particular, I'm looking for the default sounds the volume rocker makes when pressed, that ping-ish sound file. I just hate those sounds and want to delete them.

In eclair 2.1 I knew where there were, and just deleted them with root explorer. They were labeled "volume-1.mp3" etc. all the way up to level 7. But I just can't find them in froyo.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theboundless:
Thanks man

That's where I looked for them in 2.1, and I just deleted the volume files and volia, no more volume rocker sound. But that doesn't work in Froyo, and those volume sounds found in /system/media/audio/ui actually sound different, so I think those aren't the real volume rocker sounds. And of course since I delete them and my volume rocker in froyo still makes sounds they can't be the ones the system uses, right?

I need to find where froyo stores the real volume rocker sounds and delete them.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
This is a shot in the dark, but do you think Froyo pre-caches the sounds at boot? If you remove them and restart, you'd know. Maybe clear the cache between boots?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theboundless:
I'll try that later tonight, will report back
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theboundless:
Looks like the volume rocker sounds for froyo are not located in the eclair location of /system/media/audio/ui. I just deleted them and rebooted, and the volume rocker still makes its beep sound when pressed. Seriously annoying when using a program like no-lock to wake the phone with the volume rocker buttons. Yes I can just press the top button to wake the phone, and I've been doing that, but the volume rocker buttons are so much more convenient to wake the phone than the small extremely recessed button at the top.

I know that if thief is nerd he can get mine phone back by reflashing. From those lock command.
