[XPERIA X10 General] mmk92:
As most of u are aware, after the 2.1 update, the x10 display will no longer be limited by software and its display will bump up from 65thou to 16m colors, as u can see theres a way bigger spectrum of colors that our phones will display so my question is, will that diffrence be huge? Will it be noticable? how will it improve display quality(in terms of sharpness, beauty, depth, quality...erc)?
[XPERIA X10 General] GuestK00121:
My guess is better quality games. 720p video on youtbe and recordings will be better. Picture quaity and a more clearer display overall. I want this update lol
[XPERIA X10 General] Tjotte:
Changes will surely be noticeable, i still think they did a pretty darn good job with the colours as it is now :-) really looking forward to see the changes :-)
[XPERIA X10 General] mmk92:
i agree, i came from a iphone 3g and the quality is way better, i dont knw how much better it might get
[XPERIA X10 General] vrs2610:
wallpapers will be a big difference
[XPERIA X10 General] chris_knows:
My understanding is that having more colours will only make a difference if you're looking at things that are extremely close to the same colour (i.e. gradients). Just compare it to some phone with 16M colours, see if there's any noticeable difference.
[XPERIA X10 General] mezo9090:
you mean you won't notice this ? ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] akshaysuri2000:
i am waiting for this update man :D:D:D:D:D:D
[XPERIA X10 General] chris_knows:
If I stare very closely at the Mediascape background for a couple seconds, I can see some bands, where the shades don't change smoothly. Maybe you have sharper eyes than me, because I am not at all bothered by it..
[XPERIA X10 General] mezo9090:
compare it to your x10 and tell me the difference please. is it the same ?
[XPERIA X10 General] sixdaysandy:
I don't think you'll notice any difference as the Screen on the X10 only supports 65K colours, irrespective of what the OS can support, check out the Spec on the SE website.
[XPERIA X10 General] Cinner:
I don't expect much difference. I mean, I never go like "oh man, the colors on my X10 suck, I wish they were better". The colors are fine the way they are (to me). I never stare at the screen long enough to notice color banding that may occur in some pictures.
[XPERIA X10 General] mmk92:
the hardware supports 16m colors but now its limited to the os
[XPERIA X10 General] sixdaysandy:
My mistake, I was under the impression that the hardware was only capable of 65K, in the same way that it's not capable of MT, irrespective of OS level.

I hope you're right :D
[XPERIA X10 General] Lord Takyon:
It will be fairly subjective, dependant on both the picture and the person viewing.

Alot of pics are going to look better, others will show little difference.

Personally I can't wait to have wallpapers that have no bloody bands of colour instead of a grady'all change of shade. It looks horrible.

Hey I'm not sure it this was addressed but I couldn't find it.. I noticed in one of the roms I installed it either was I'm thinking it was skyraider.. but when I hit the power button it gave me more options like reboot and I think recovery... was wondering if I can get that on the Rom I'm on right now.. without goin back to the other Rom cuz I like this one better...I know there are apps that do this function but I want it to were it just gives it to me from holding down the power button.. I thank you in advance...
[Droid Incredible General] russell5:
I know cyanogen mod adds reboot to the power button but im not sure how you can add it to other roms. Sorry
[Droid Incredible General] Manitook:
I have been using an app called Quick Boot by Sirius Applications Ltd it is free in the market. It lets you do a reboot, boot into Recovery and Boot into Bootoader just by launching the app. small and simple.
[Droid Incredible General] hackadeehack236:
yea i know about quick boo i have it too but just thot it was more convenient to already have it on the power button...

also i had other stuff like turning on hotspot and other options i cant remember...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skend04:
Title says it all. Pershoot et al seem to be keeping o.c'ing to 1113 whilst wildmonks has a test kernel at 1190. Can the snapdragon on our little phone go beyond this? Was just wondering as on face of it the milestone is oc'd to over twice its original spec speed.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigacgomez:
You could give it a shot, though it could render your system unstable. The overclock speeds used by kernel devs are within the range of what has been identified as stable. I think there have been kernels which have been overclocked to 1.3Ghz, but people using those reported stability and overheating issues. 1.1Ghz is by far the safest overclock speed for the snapdragon.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Judging by reports, most devices can't go above 1150-1170, but selected few have been able to achieve 1267 on stock voltages.

Not all silicon is created equal...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrganizedFellow:
For some simple benchmarking and testing purposes, I'd have my super-over-clocked N1 infront of a breezy A/C vent.

My phone was over 100*F one time, while driving a long distance and the GPS was on. It quickly cooled to under 80*F, as I held it in front of the A/C vent in my car.

I'm sure with some frigid air cooling, some amazing benchmarks can be achieved.

ONLY TEMPORARILY THOUGH, as I'm sure it would probably damage something.

[Desire General] stats101:
The lack of space on my phone is frustrating me a lot. More annoyingly, I can't free up space by removing the preinstalled apps. Anyone figured out a way to remove these WO rooting and/or debranding?
[Desire General] Teppic24:
You won't be able to remove the apps without rooting.

To be honest your best bet if you want to remove the apps is to go down the debranding route. I did and haven't looked back.
[Desire General] !PANDA:
had the same problem! vodafone pulledout the 1.24.161.3 which was rather pointless, got annoyed, debranded, rooted, flashed a custom ROM (or install a srock ROM and unroot).

hope this helps! good luck!
[Desire General] aindow:
Isn't debranding the same thing as rooting? I'm confused.
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Vodafone released their bloatware-free FroYo update this morning...
[Desire General] Lennyuk:
Like I said before in many other threads, in order to "debrand" an android phone you need to root.

The term debranding on android is a confusing one. It mainly origionated from non-smartphone users who wanted to remove carrier bloat and install generic firmware on their phones.

Now to do this on an android you will need to root in order to install other roms. However if you are rooting you might as well take the full step and install a custom rom, rather than a rooted generic rom as it offers so much more than any stock rom does.
[Desire General] jameson_uk:
I installed the generic HTC rom on my Orange branded desire without rooting and have applied OTA froyo update and still not rooted.

I used the instructions posted by Paul @ modaco on 2nd April but he did not root the device until later...

Why do you say you need to root to debrand? (Genuine question as want to know if I have got things mixed up)
[Desire General] rolfd:
You do not need to root if you are just debranding.

Debranding can be carried out by flashing an official htc generic ruu.
[Desire General] aindow:
Lennyuk. Thanks for clearing it up for me. I understand now. I rooted my Orange desire as soon as I got it in that case.
[Desire General] Teppic24:
Wrong! Root is NOT required in order to de-brand to a stock ROM. A Goldcard is required, but not root.

However, just to confuse matters a bit, root IS required if you want to flash a custom ROM.

I de-branded my Orange Desire to a stock ROM about a month before I got around to rooting it via Unrevoked.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alovell83:
You didn't mention your display runtime, this is imperative to evaluating your battery. Also, do not let advanced task killer run in the background. Its process requires much more than 2% of the battery, the reason for it is

it raises your:

standby time

phone idle

increases:

processor runtime

partial wake use

android os

It will kill processes, then Android says 'hey, there is spare memory, let me start up a new process to quickload next time it's opened." This cycle repeats itself when ATK rekills a process.

It's ok to keep ATK, and if you need to run it, use it manually. Don't leave it running in the background, especially when you are not using your phone!

I always seem to touch the "end call" button with my cheek when I'm calling someone since my god damn screen wont turn off when I'm in-call.

Anyone else experienced this ?
[XPERIA X10 General] peo306:
depends on my experiences, the screen turn off when u r in call after (5-10 sec) coz the sensor of screen in covered thought in call just in foryo 2.2 the screen turn off directly( this sensor located in the upper right corner of screen in x10

So if your screen not turn off all the time when in call is active ,so you need to check the sensor it's work or not

i think the is software to check all the sensor and bluetooth,wifi....etc named benchmark in the market try to download it but first check ur screen after 10sec when u r in call and check the sitting ok
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
Hi - The proximity sensor disables the screen - you can test that it's working by going into the service menu and checking it.. it's Menu, Back, Back, Menu, Back, Menu, Menu, Back.. Then go into the service tests menu and check if it works... if it's working in there, then I suspect that you may be using a task killer and it's interfering with the workings of your phone.. ditch the task killer, it's a waste of resources anyway..
[XPERIA X10 General] phoneguy 4567:
I have this problem as well & I know the sensor is working because I went into test mode & ran the test. I have no task killers installed & the screen stays on during a call. The screen shuts off at the set screen timeout interval but the sensor doesn't seem to do anything, except in the test mode.

On other phones like the N1 & IPhone 3GS if you cover up the sensor the screen will shut off but with the X10 it stays on.

[XPERIA X10 General] ashirokung:

[XPERIA X10 General] peo306:
no this sensor responsible to check in call and turn off screen but i guess there is problem in firmware (BUGS) coz if there screen not turn off the battery will drain via (2-3)H of call !!! not possible
[XPERIA X10 General] indesisiv:
The sensor disables the screen ...

It doesn't turn it off. Your screen will turn off after your normal screen time out.

Easy to test, ring someone then cover the sensor with your finger and try pressing end call. It is locked so won't end the call. Remove your finger and press the end call. Call ends!
[XPERIA X10 General] phoneguy 4567:
Your right!!!

Strange way to do things IMO because it's a waste of battery leaving the screen on. I still think the sensor software is buggy because I've been in calls where I accidentally hit end call with my face :).

You can also do a nandroid backup. Root (use unrevoked3, fast and safe), then install ROM Manager from the market. Run it and tap the "Backup Current ROM" entry. Enter the name for your backup, allow ROM Manager to use su. Your device will reboot into recovery and make a complete backup of all your data (the ROM, apps, etc.). You can always restore it from recovery or ROM Manager.
