Every time i turn it on it connects to my laptop then disconnects after a few seconds. It keeps on saying that it timed out. Any ideas why? Or maybe of a better app thatll let me jump on the phones 3g?
[Captivate General] KJPDX:
No better apps, but there are now ways to access mobileAP if you dont mind modding your phone... Several posts in the developers section.
[Captivate General] Clienterror:
He speaks the truth, MobleAP is way better. Barnacle and other wifi tethering apps make your phone a ad-hoc network that not all computers/phones can see but MobileAP actually makes your phone a wireless router.

I would like to knw if mw 600 headset is available in white??? I saw it in a video but cant find it @ stores, they say it comes only in black.. if anyone has white, plz let me knw frm where thy bought it .

THANKS
[XPERIA X10 General] roaringhere:
Yeah! I want to know that too. In the promo video, the lady was using it, but I can't find it anywhere. Is it MW600 or something else? Maybe that headset was only made for that promotional video...
[XPERIA X10 General] TechGuru_x10:
Me looking for same as well...
[XPERIA X10 General] Vin87:
The headset that came with the Aino is white and looks just like the mw600, they probably used that headset in the promo video. However this headset lacks the oled screen and thus will not show caller id etc..

Here on eBay

You can see here on the black version that it doesn't have a real screen.
[XPERIA X10 General] berbecverde:
on the SE website it say that color is only black so i think there is no white one:D
[XPERIA X10 General] roaringhere:
On the promotional video, it's totally white not like the one from Aino, maybe it's just made for that video. Anyway, I am using the headset of my previous phone which is white as well, but not bluetooth...
[XPERIA X10 General] jasim20002001:
Wel i guess i hav to settle with the black one. Is there any other brand with a white wirless headset which can b recommended?
[XPERIA X10 General] berbecverde:
the thing with some of the bluetooth headsets is that they are optimized for some mobile phones, just like the mw600 and SE phones, and some controls do not work on other phones. so before you buy you should dig a little:D
[XPERIA X10 General] lornova:
I have 2 questions on MW 600:

1. Does it use micro USB charger?

So that we can use the same charger as the X10.

2. Where it is possible to buy it?

I live in Italy and I can't find it nowhere. I have been a week in London and neither there I've seen it anywhere.
[XPERIA X10 General] Tjotte:
I can answer Q nr1, yes you can use the same micro usb charger :-)
[XPERIA X10 General] berbecverde:
you can buy it for example on ebay for arround 50 euros.

but you can find it in many other places too.:)
[XPERIA X10 General] lornova:
I know I can find it online, but why it is not available in retail stores???
[XPERIA X10 General] jasim20002001:
Well guyz i went for the black one yesterdy.. got it frm SE shop... but i feel the brightness of the display is too low, is it possoble to increase it? Or is my 1 faulty? I saw a video in youtube where i found the brightness was damn good..
[XPERIA X10 General] xGary:
Go to Settings>Sound & Display>Brightness (Would suggest you turn off automatic brightness)

Gary~
[XPERIA X10 General] berbecverde:
Are you talking about the MW600 or the X10?:D cause i think he asked about the brightness on the MW600:o
[XPERIA X10 General] jasim20002001:
I was asking abt the mw600... well i found out it cant b increased... my one turns out to b faulty.. went to SE shop n got it replaced... now the brightness is gud now...

i'm looking for a transparent/shaded status or taskbar notification background. so what im really looking for is the background of the pull down tab to be specific. ive found one on this forum but metamorph wont let me flash it and i cant flash it because the package isnt signed.... let alone i do not know if it actually works or not ^^;;

a little info on my phone... im on a HTC Tattoo (Click) with 2.2 froyo without sense ROM.

ive attached the file so you guys can see. oh and another thing ive been having some sort of weird problem with my metamorph where when i start it it has to do a check but it says that i dont have enough memory but i definitely do have more than enough on the SD card and the phone.

thanks in advance!
[Android Themes] opasha:
your lack of experience shows. if you want help, find the specific png (aka image) that you are speaking about. then type it out here for people to read. then rather than posting a whole framework randomly, post something useful, like the image itself. explain what it looks like and then explain your 50% transparency request.

for example: i got that from your request, you want this image called status_bar_background. i made it 50% transparent myself and am showing you it using tinypic.com where you can upload any image for free and post it using the code.

the left image is the actual png image in framework-res.apk/framework/drawable-hdpi. the right image shows what it looks like on your phone.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jameskever:
Hello XDA,

I'm fairly new so please excuse me if this has already been addressed or answered. I've searched but haven't found an answer so if there's a post on this, please reply with a link and I'll do the rest.

Okay, when I get a text message, the message alert goes off. But say I'm not with my phone, or in a loud environment, is there a way to get the phone to vibrate and play the alert when I get an sms? Also, is there a way to get the phone to periodically alert me when there is an unread text ? My last phone (GSM HTC Hero) had an LED that would flash. But this phone, the Samsung Vibrant, doesn't have an LED, and apparently no way of letting me know I missed a text message.

If not, is there an app that might provide that functionality?

Thanks in advanced for any reply.

Look in the Market for SMS Popup. It has a lot of notification options (custom vibrate patterns, notification icon), it can turn on the screen, and it can also remind you in time increments.

If you decide to go this route, be sure to turn off your default messaging notifications, so you dont get double.
[Vibrant General] trevorwhopkins:
Hi. I moved from a DInc on Verizon to the Vibrant because I hated the sunlight on an AMOLED, and because Verizon was stealing my money. Although honestly verizon just lowered prices, and Tmo's network is still crap in my town.

Anyways down to business: My phone is rooted, and I applied one click lag fix. I am assuming that was when problems started but then again not for sure. I've gone from stock to Vibrant5 to Vibrant6 roms, no change.

The first problem here is this: my phone always thinks it's plugged in to USB. It cycles on an off, but never just stops and stays normal. I'm talking several times a minute ''usb connected'' or whatever on, off, on, off... annoying but no big deal. Except that freaking battery meter that pops up when your phone is off but plugged in via USB starts popping up when it's not plugged in and my phone is turning on... but since there isnt really usb in, it just hangs and resets. The second I plug in a real usb, meter pops up and i just turn it on and all good.

Second problem, which makes it so bad: my phone does this things that I've seen on XDA several times where when the processor bogs down, or GPS is on, or whatever taxes the phone, it will randomly reset once or twice a day.

Put those together and what you get is me, in public away from a charger, with a phone that won't turn on. WTF. So I repeatedly take the battery out and jam the power button till once in a while I'm able to start it before the stupid usb thinks its plugged in. Other times I'm screwed till I find my car charger.

Now, what can I do? Before anyone says warranty, yes I unrooted, did my best to unlagfix, and went to the Tmo store. They ordered me a new phone. However I have to send mine in when it gets and here and would like to insure there is no root related crap for them to find, plus I'm stuck with this phone freaking out on me for another week.

If people keep messing up their phones by rooting and flashing roms and then, rather than trying to fix the problem, send them into tmobile, I bet future firmwares and android phones will be more like the iPhone and iOS.
[Vibrant General] dq13:
First I would try to flash it back to stock and leave t factory. Then if problem persist, its probably hardware. I mean you are returning it anyways so flash it back to the stock rom and do a factory reset

I have been using JsChiSurf's Desire-style lockscreen for Stock ROM's and absolutely loved it. Now I am using the Zen MT3G Slide ROM, and was wondering if anyone could port a Desire-style lockscreen for this ROM?

What do I mean be "Desire-style"? Basically, the only difference is that when sliding down to unlock, only the lockscreen arc (or horizontal lockscreen bar in this ROM's case) moves down instead of the entire lockscreen. This is the only difference.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] YoungSinema:
Just push JsChiSurf's htclockscreen.apk to /system/app and then reboot

I haven't tried it myself, but I'm almost certain this won't work since they're different frameworks.

Update your widget list (add to home>>widget>>get more htc widgets>>press menu and "update") and you should see it, it's not something terrific though :).
[Desire General] ohyeahar:
Interesting. But I agree, it's not anything groundbreaking. Thanks for the heads up though!

(I wish HTC would release the Tasks widget for the Desire. It's available on the Legend and it's something I would actually use.)

A nice little addition. What I like most about it is the fact that it is not fullscreen.

Many of HTC widgets are taking up the whole screen even though there is plenty of free space around the widget.

Thanks for the heads up.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rommark:
Hello,

Until yesterday i never OCed my desire, I had DJ Droid rom and it was always smooth and slick in terms of interface and apps jumpiness.

Yesterday I decided to try the 1384Mhz rom from OpenDesire. Done full wipe of course, installed the ROM, then after the installation my Desire was pretty hot (probably due to all sync apps work) even before i installed set cpu or did any OC.

Then I said, ok lets try OC, I installed Set CPU, And tried 1300Mhz level and also the maximum levels. and it froze up, i had to pull off the battary and reboot.

Then I tried 1272, Again froze up during browsing...

Then I tried 1Mhz and ran stress test for long, no errors no freez ups.

However, OpenDesire wasnt slick and smooth for me, I mean during sliding the apps menu, it was not smoooth i felt some slowdowns... same about the main interface windows slide right/left. especially with live wallpapers from some kind.

Tried then GeFrost rom with the touchwiz theme, Same during apps sliding some times was smooth but most of it was not smooth, was bit laggy/freezy. During sliding between the 5 raws / pages of apps list.

Is it normal? Could I damage something in my CPU/GPU due to this OC? Which causing this?

I tried even full wipe and again from zero placing the OD rom...still had same feeling of none smoothness.

thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
It is possible to totally destroy a processor by attempting to overclock it. By destruction, I mean that the processor will not boot at the higher speed, and when returned to its normal speed, will continue to not function. This is basically the worst case outcome. This sort of permanent failure is very rare, but it does happen. It is made more likely by using inadequate cooling, and also by being ridiculously aggressive in how far you try to overclock (i.e., trying to run a Pentium 75 at 166 MHz.)

When the processor is run at a speed that is higher than it is supposed to be run at, there is a chance that the internal components in the processor may break down over time. The internal features of a CPU are sized in the range of microns. It is possible that when the processor is stressed by running at too high a frequency, along with the extra heat that overclocking incurs, that the actual metal lines inside the processor may form shorts or opens and damage the processor over a period of time. How likely this is to happen, and how long it takes is really not known. The system may work fine for a while and then suddenly stop working.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rommark:
I've wiped GeFrost and installed LeeDroid rom with Sense UI, Now i feel good again :) I suspect that "none sense UI" Simply not for my touch and feel style... Sense UI feels much more smoother just like DJ droid rom i had...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
Overclocking can potentially damage your processor like explained above, however if you manage this correctly then its not really a real issue.

- Don't go to high (learn your phones limits and step down a couple from it)

- Don't keep it too high forever (use profiles in set cpu to control this)

- Underclock when screen off to negate effects of overclocking with screen on

[Desire Accessories] @MARK:
I had a PDair case on my last phone.

They are very VERY good and will really keep your phone looking like new.

BUT

Be aware that they do impact signal strength and could make the difference between 2 bars and no bars.
[Desire Accessories] marianne18:
Really? I've never encountered such problem, though. Pdair is a very famous case maker with rich experiences, I think they will fully test the products before commercial launch?? BTW, have you asked for replacement?
[Desire Accessories] @MARK:
If you fully encase a phone in metal, it's kind of expected that reception will be affected to some degree. I suspect that different phone will also be affected in different ways dependant on where the antenna is located.

As I said, the PDair case IS very very good and I was prepared to accept the trade off on reception (which was only really a deal in poor reception areas) against the ultimate protection for my phone. When I eventually sold the phone on eBay, the buyer did not believe this had been my work phone for the last year plus as it was in such good condition.

My experience was however in an area of marginal signal, taking the phone out of the metal case resulted in an extra bar or 2. I do not believe this to be a faulty case, just physics ;)
[Desire Accessories] @MARK:
So much so that I have just ordered one :D

I will let you know how good it is when it gets here from the states.
[Desire Accessories] johnlaujl:
Maybe it's an isolated case. I have purchased Pdair products for so many years, but have not seen this kind of problem.

[Desire Accessories] Deleted member 2496007:
It just arrived, and it is perfect! The screen protector had gone on flawlessly, and is much smoother than my last one, giving the feel and slip of a bare glass screen. The case itself is very well made, and although it adds some minor bulk to the phone,i think it looks cool. All cutouts line up perfectly, and it feels very good to hold.

Well worth the money if you don't mind the look it gives the phone.

Hi

I got the sgs gt I9000

A few frinds told me that I sent them smses more than once, after we finished owr chat.

For ex: I smsed my friend yesterday at 00:00 4 smses. The device turned off at 07:00 this morning, and sent them again to her wheb I turned it on.

I didn't find any connection between the time I sent the sms to the time it was turned off.

It's like the sms is still in the outbox, after it is already sent, and when I turn the device off/on it sends it again.

Anyone knows about this kind of a problem?

Its round 4 smses a day, it's round 120 a month, in $ it's an exra 20$ to the monthly bill...

I change the batteries in my device once a day so I don't over-cycle/over-stress them, it happens to give the dual purpose of a reboot which is good for the phone. Turning the phone off has its places.

Hi

I found an article in EVO 4G forum that explained how to increase battery life on that device.

A Norwegian newspaper has referred to the article and confirmed that this method also works on HTC Desire devices, so I thought I would share for those interested in testing on MyTouch/Magic as well.

I have not tested myself yet, but I am going to!

The instructions are:

These instructions are supplied by HTC themselves, and are issued as a response to a customer complaining to HTC about poor battery performance.

Original thread to be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=712990

HTC claims that this is a one time procedure, but perhaps it is a good idea to perform these steps in conjunction with wiping battery stats (in recovery) as descibed by Klothius?

Here is Klothius instructions on how to correctly wipe battery stats:
