[XPERIA X10 General] instigator008:
Why do you say that? "Coming weeks" falls in line with the end of Q3 schedule quite nicely.
[XPERIA X10 General] wrongfeifong:
AT&T is too late.

x10 isn't as attractive than evo 4g or droid x or galaxy S.

Not to mention Iphone.

I don't see their sales will go up. Now if x10 was released in feb or match by At&T that's another story.
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
What do u mean x10 isn't attractive?Galaxy S is just another iphone ripoff, evo 4g looks like a brick sent into a squashing machine and while the droid x doesn't look too bad, it doesn't compare to the X10's design :cool:
[XPERIA X10 General] rocketpaul:
what? are you serious ?
[XPERIA X10 General] wrongfeifong:
Sadly, North americans are people that sulk in pursuing numbers and names. Not their functions nor design.

If not then Iphone wouldn't be sold so many here. which iphone user actually looked into and compare the function of Iphone against other before buying an Iphone.

And evo 4g isn't really 4g (from what i read). But everyone think it is 4g and buy it out.

While functions, x10 lost to all the latest phones. The only thing that is attractive enough is SE's brand name, which some of us bought it because of it.
[XPERIA X10 General] Izzy_Deadyet:
I'm not into names, numbers or looks, only function.

Bought the X10 because it was/is the largest screen Android phone in Canada with North American 3G. (wasn't going to pay $800 to import an N1)

Happy with Android 1.6 but wish it did BT Voice Dial.

Don't care about looks which is why I stuck a 2600mAh battery in it's butt ;)

BTW, I also never understood the iPhone attraction.
[XPERIA X10 General] htc fan89:
x10 is very good looking in white or black, It fits in the hand good not like the hd2. Soon or later 2.1 would come, and I don't care about 2.2. Anyway, all I want to say is x10 is good and just give it a try.
[XPERIA X10 General] applebook:
Sorry, but your posts make no sense. The Evo 4G is 4G, which is available only in a very limited number of major American cities.

The Evo 4G is not a true competitor for any other phone because it is such a niche product.

The Galaxy S, Droid Incredible, Droid X, and Droid 2 are the X10's biggest competition, but I assume that AT&T will price the X10 accordingly (i.e. lower than the others).
[XPERIA X10 General] unknown13x:
hmm so where is HondaGuy? Any answers for doubting me that the X10 is coming to AT&T since I was the first to state it a while ago?

The AT&T logo appears only in the back on the cover, we get to keep our XPERIA logo on the front :)

And 2.1 will be ready near the end of Q3 in September, the Q4 one is something else :D Let's just say we will be happy 2 more times with our X10 before the year ends :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X10 General] k0sun7eash3d:
As late as the x10 is coming into the game for the american market, I feel that it is still plenty competitive with other flagship smartphones. There are only few minor issues with the x10, being the lack of MT and the lower built in ram and rom.

If at&t markets the phone correctly to those looking for a high quality camera phone, I think the x10 can make a great impression. While looks is an interpretive concept, I have heard a lot of positive comments about the phone's design and imo is currently the best looking phone available with android. For those reasons, I think the x10 will definitely get some crapple converts.
[XPERIA X10 General] applebook:
The way that the 4 is selling out everywhere, no "crapple" owner is going to convert.

However, plenty of RIM users will jump onto the Android train.
[XPERIA X10 General] Nimche:
These are hish wash here in the US. You go to ATT local store all you can see is selection of 10 crappy phone which they have put four of each in every corner (4x10 - 40 crappy phones) and a stand with iPhone on it. I have been ATT customer for 4 years now and I have never bought a phone from them. Phone Company in the US suck with no options. People don't care about the phone, as long as it has iphone options or some cool other feature or even if it doesn't.

We see the phones as gadget many people don't see it that way.

I wish t-mobile could bring their European policy here in the US.$0 for phone anything you like.

Let them be happy with their iPhone. as long as they are not using it for their pregnancy test.
[XPERIA X10 General] Anandc:
Some reason I think X10 will do great in US.

When X10 was realesed, I doubted that it won't really do well in front of HTC and Motorola as it was Sony Ericsson's first Android device and no multitouch with 1.6

When I bought, I was amazed. I think the user experience is Brilliant!!! Top notch phone with hardware specs. The problem is not X10, it's the Sony Ericsson's delays with upgrades, but not to forget they are catching up. It's not they are not doing anything about it
[Legend Android Development] LayZeeDK:
Hi guys

I'm new to this section of the forum as I just received my Legend today. I've had my Magic since December. In the Magic forum there are a lot of sticky threads with guides to rooting etc. I can't seem to find any here though. I've tried to use the MoDaCo guide but I've ran into some problems.

See the topic here: http://android.modaco.com/content-p...-guide-now-with-1-31-x/page/580/#entry1366357

Phone info:

LEGEND UNKNOWN SHIP S-ON

Thanks a lot!
[Legend Android Development] AllWin:
Hi ;) I had a similar problem as you, so i flashed official 2.03 ROM and used it until those amassing guys found a way to downgrade back to 1.31 and then i decided to try once again. And guess what? It worked! After downgrading and re-creating gold card i was able to root my Legend. Try to do the same, maybe that will work for you as well.
[Legend Android Development] LayZeeDK:
Well, I'm still at 1.31.x. I created a goldcard successfully and used it for Step 1 of the MoDaCo guide, but it said I needed regular SD card for Step 2, so I reformatted it and I'm stuck at Step 2. It won't load the custom recovery :(
[Legend Android Development] snakehult:
take the update.zip from fake-flash

http://koush.tandtgaming.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-legend.zip

copy it to your sdcard

boot with volume down and goto recovery when exclemationsign press vol up and power, and you should be able to get update.zip running
[Legend Android Development] LayZeeDK:
Thanks a lot! Now I'm able to boot the Clockwork Recovery :) I though you had to have root to run it. Now let's see if I'm able to flash a custom ROM.
[Legend Android Development] snakehult:
you have root, the "step1" took care of possible to flash a rom with su
[Legend Android Development] xennr3:
i tried to root my legend several times but it doesn´t work :(

i´m now at 1.31.177.3 rom and 430..01 bootloader, 've made a goldcard 3 times now but everytime there is the same problem...

starting pauls r4 step1-windows.bat in the cmd and it always hangs on writing 'zip'..., could it be that my sdcard is not 'allowed' to be a goldcard or something? :D

i hope u guys can help me :)
[Legend Android Development] LayZeeDK:
Are you experiencing any problems when creating the goldcard?

Try this tool for easy goldcard creation: http://android.modaco.com/content/software/308798/pc-application-goldcardtool/
[Legend Android Development] xennr3:
hi,

I tried this tool the first time but after clicking patch mmc i always get 'An error occured Object reference not set to and instance of a object.' So i created the goldcard by myself with the modaco guide.

Today i tried this tool over at another computer and created the goldcard successfully but the .bat also stuck at the same point...
[Legend Android Development] snakehult:
Not running windows 7 x64?

Had similar problem on my computer/phone for some days ago

But then I tested on other computer with windows xp and all worked.
[Legend Android Development] xennr3:
No i have on all my computers WIN7 32Bit.

I thougth i could test the r4-root at the computer where the goldcard tool already worked and yes, its looking good so far :P (step1 complete)

I don´t know why nothing worked on my computer but its okay when it works on another haha :D
[Legend Android Development] LayZeeDK:
Did you also run step1-windows.bat on the other computer? Is ADB and fastboot working?
[Legend Android Development] xennr3:
as u can see one post above step1 worked fine und also step2 is completed :)
[Legend Android Development] LayZeeDK:
Great :-) I never got step 2 to work, but I just installed another ROM.

Also, a good photo viewer/gallery. 3D gallery is OK at best. How someone has not developed this is beyond me. When I am not running Sense I find I use the image viewer in Astro to view pictures which proves how crappy most of the other options are.

[Captivate General] rurouni572:
I realize there's an option to hide contacts from SIM. This is not what I want. Like other people, I am getting duplicate contacts when create a new message from the message app or if I try to create an email from the contact list.

Is there a way to mass delete contacts? I already have all my contacts under the phone/gmail contacts categories and the SIM contacts are redundant and causing my OCD to go haywire =S.
[Captivate General] Jack45:
The only way I was successful in mass deletion of contacts on the SIM card was to remove the SIM, place it in an older phone that permitted mass deletion, and perform the task. Not sophisticated, but easy and successful.
[Captivate General] rurouni572:
Hmm...that's a bit annoying. Thankfully I still have my old phone, but I wish it were a feature in the captivate.
[Captivate General] Jack45:
Annoying? Agreed...but fast and effective. Beats the heck out of deleting possibly hundreds of contacts one by one (as I would have had to do).
[Captivate General] rurouni572:
I'm not doubting the quickness and effectiveness. It's rather unfortunate though for the people who don't have their old phones. =/
[Desire General] foxmeister:
Cyanogen retweeted this blog entry today, on the subject of task killers - link.

I used to use a task killer back when I had a G1, but eventually decided to stop using "autokill" functionality and that has continued through to the Hero and now the Desire. I still have a task killer that I'll use infrequently to kill an errant app (can't remember the last time I used it!), but 99/100 I'll let Android do it's thing and I don't suffer from lag or performance issues.

I know this subject is very divisive, but I think we can all agree that Cyanogen *knows* an awful lot more about Android that most of the rest of us combined! He's of the opinion that task killers are a waste of time, and IMHO, his opinion carries a lot of weight.

My advice to anyone who is using an task killer to automatically kill apps is to try not using one for a while. If you experience problems, take a look at your apps and see if there's a particular one causing your issues.

Regards,

Dave

Seems all the images here have loads of tweaks done to them, silly boot animations etc, and it almost always means some of these tweaks will be broken in lots of ways, or include just as much crap as the stuff HTC include.

Just come from Hero, where there is a stock image that ONLY have the root and SU app included, no other stuff. Is there such a beast for Legend?

Otherwise, I'll just stay on 2.03.405.3 and wait for Froyo.

Have you tried Almost Stock Legend?

YOu have a rooting guide on the page below. When you root legend you have to flash it, ande on this page you will see how you do it from the beginign and the rom you will use it for flashing it, you'll get there, and it is completly stock, only superuser app is added.

Off to downgrade, install recovery and then flash this puppy. What's the deal with radio firmware on Legend?

Will the RUU downgrade also downgrade the radio? (I assume it will), will this update.zip update it? (I am assuming not), how do I get the latest GSM radio?

Thanks, all rooted and upto date.

The only small annoyance with than rom, is it uses the rubbish SU app, the one that does not work correctly if USB debugging is enabled, rather than the good "ninja" one.

Is it just a case of using adb to remove it and replace it with the good one?
[Legend Android Development] mgillespie:
Hmm, tried installing AdFree from the marketplace, something that's never caused me any problems on my Hero, and it caused the Legend to reboot...
