[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zubrug:
used to notice this when i left wifi on over night, turning it off when not in use solved this and it did not re-appear.

Forgot the gps today and turned on Navigate, started rebooting , frequency increased, phone was warm. What a drag this flagship phone is becoming, see what the next couple of months brings:cool:
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saytanz:
Doesnt realize this thread exist or else i wont open my own thread. So sorry. @mod, please delete my thread if necessary. My phone's self reboot problem prevent me from browsing the net freely..

My phone is on R2BA020, singapore set from singtel. Getting very hot while charging, will restart when;

-set phone to use wcdma only.

-temp at or over 39-40 degree celcius.

-do something, like, browsing, texting, or even open the menu, and once doing nothing while 2 situation above met,also made it reboot.

And, reinstall/repair using SEUS or PPC doesnt solve it.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoelMan1121:
Hey guys, I had this problem - I have come to believe it is to do with the motherboard short-circuiting... Whenever a process or certain part of the phone starts it will reboot.

This gets regular and eventually will never get past 1 minute uptime before it reboots - and then eventually having to take the battery out and re-inserting in order for it to boot... to reboot...

I got a replacement phone, to find that my newly replaced phone still had the problem, so I re-replaced it haha, and now the new one works properly.

It's a hardware problem.

What a failure SE.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zbyslove:
Joel, I don't know..I think it has to be something else..during a few first months my phone was working fine..but then I started debranding, rooting, upgrading etc. I remeber the first time it crashed..I was in a car, turned on gps and then it happened. From that time on it keeps rebooting..sometimes it needs a minute sometimes few days but it is obvious that it can turn itself off anytime..now Im using other phone, waiting for 2.1..
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mayank.1love:
Joel is absolutely right about the hardware problem.

I too had the problem and after trying every possible method of repairing it from firmware point of view,memory card, sim card trials I gave it to SE service center for repair last Saturday.

The fault is in the Xperia X10 motherboard.

Its a very common problem in some batch of Xperia X10.

Best way is to get it replaced by SE.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GaryS1004:
I posted a question about Gmail not being to download attachments on the Captivate due to the fact that Gmail says there is no internal SD card. Additionally, Beautiful Widgets needs access to the internal SD card as well and doesn't see it. I can't download from the Android Marketplace either. I have found others who are having this same problem over at Android Forums.

I don't what the fix is, but those having issues with not being able to download apps and such may want to look at this.

AT&T didn't have an answer and is exchanging the phone.

If anyone is having similar issues and has found an answer, could you let me know. I hope this isn't going to be a big issue with the Captivate.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zen kun:
i love gmail but im wondering why its not full push e-mail?

all will say yes its push mail but you need leave all day "sync" on to get notifications if you turn off the sync you will not have instant e mail.

leaving all day "sync" will drain a little more the battery, so if you get a mail when you have "sync" off you will nit have any notification UNTIL you turn on, there is program like shutupbattery that will sync every X time but whats the point of push mail?

get instant right? i guess using k9 will work better (not sure) but why not in stock gmail app?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clarkster:
That's what push is. It is a constant low bandwidth connection kept open waiting for Google to send notifications.

The gmail servers cannot just send a message to your phones IP or anything like that, because trying to get that to work with all the various operators and different networking setups in the world would be impossible.

That's how push works on a windows mobile phone, and maybe even a blackberry (but I cannot be sure of that since they run special software on the telco's side)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zen kun:
i didint test it or dont remember if chrome to phone works without sync but if all works in that way why google bother to toggle "sync" yea i know its a low bandwith connection instead always check as poll but you need leave all day sync on to all work well and that will drain a little battery too
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clarkster:
Well, you should test, that IS how Chrome to Phone works. It uses the push notification system Google developed. Which uses the push data connection.

The point is, apps written for 2.2 and up should use this system when possible. Instead of having your widgets, twitter apps, chat apps, mail apps all doing their own push or periodic checking, they can all use the one Google connection. Saving battery over 4 apps doing their own checking.

And of course it uses the battery. If you want push on ANY device it will use the battery a lot more. If you want your battery to last longer, don't use any push features.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Dude, you ever tried to get your ISP to turn on your internet connection on your home laptop when you get a mail?

Well, since you (hopefully) understood what kind of gibberish it is, maybe you'll understand why the data connection is always on in the phone? Because it's your internet, and without it you WON'T HAVE ANY DATA AT ALL.

If you choose to disable this connection for battery savings - it's your personal problem that you won't get any service that comes from the internet, including mails. That's how it works, and Google has nothing to do with it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigacgomez:
FYI, they aren't talking about turning off data, rather have gmail push without having to keep sync on. With sync on, the apps regularly poke at the servers to get info about new emails, etc. In contrast, Blackberry push email works is a different way... the server pushes notifications to the app. Chrome to Phone works in this way and I guess it would be quite viable to have other Google apps do the same...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
That is[/is] how Google apps do it. My phone tends to notify me of email before Thunderbird picks it up, and they're both push.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Spoken by someone who never tried to confirm what he writes, and the same goes for the OP. The easiest way to understand that you're wrong is - position your phone in place with 3G / WiFi reception, and send yourself a mail on the PC. How much time it takes until you receive it on the phone? My measurements were from 5 sec to 1.5 min, and mostly stayed within half a minute from sending time. So, if your theory was correct, it would mean that the Gmail "pokes at the servers" more than once a minute.. Which is obviously wrong, and if you monitor traffic (in the easiest way possible - just look at your "H" symbol, if you have a custom ROM), you'll see that it doesn't happen.

"Sync" is a general term. Sync can be done in multiple ways. One of them is push sync. It just so happens that Gmail is push sync. And the "Sync" switch is just to enable/disable the sync for Google apps, it doesn't say anything about it being push/pull/whatever.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diamantes:
Hello bros.

My question is about the email tab and pocket outlook: I know that there is a bug in email tab, because it doesn't allow to delete emails from server and HD2 at the same time.

So we must do it directly from outlook or when we sync, the emails are redowloaded again...That's ok. Emails are not redownloaded when I sync my inbox.

The problem is that even if I follow this procedures, when I come back to my PC and I download my emails with the usual browser or app, the emails are not cancelled from servers and I find hundreds of emails in my inbox...:confused::confused::confused::confused:

I do not know what to check to stop this behaviour...

any ideas?

(my pocket outlook has the flag on "delete emails on next connect/reconnect)

thx in advance :o:o
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diamantes:
ahi ahi ahi

Despite my efforts, I confirm that I can not erase emails from the server using Pocket Outlook (let alone the HTC email tab of course.) I can just avoid the redownloading emails on my HD2 if I delete them directly from Pocket Outlook. Unfortunately, when I check my emails from my PC, they are always there...

maybe a problem of gmail or yahoo settings I have to do directly in the webmail?

I checked also this possibility, but I cannot figure out how... it seems to me that is everything fine... :(:(:(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diamantes:

In the widget sticky topic they mentioned music mod widget. Just beautiful.

I searched on the internet and replaced the original music.apk with the one I downloaded from the net using root explorer. The file was in the system/apps

But I can't see those widgets. I asked this question in that topic but I get the advise to ask it around. Now here is the topic. I an sure more people love this widget.

Is there any way I can get it work on my x10 without importing another rom. According to some one it usually comes in a rom, so there must be a way to get it working.

please help with this, I can't figure it out by myself.

[EVO 4G Accessories] bassic:
My wife and I both have EVOs, one with a Seidio Rugged case and the other with a Seidio Active case. Both are top quality cases that offer great protection.

The rugged case consists of a hard plastic case that goes over the phone, with a silicone sleeve that goes over the inner case, with a hard plastic exoskeleton that goes over that. It's extremely bulky but does a nice job of protecting the phone. I already dropped mine from 3 feet onto asphalt and there's nothing but a little scratch on the case.

The Active Case is a much better design in my opinion. It's not nearly as bulky but offers the same protection and the power and volume buttons don't feel as squishy. It also feels significantly thinner. The active case is a silicon sleeve that covers the phone with a hard plastic exoskeleton outside of that. I'd say that it offers the same level of protection as the Active case. My daughter dropped the phone with the Active case onto a plate of food and the plate shattered, yet the phone survived.

ive run restore factory = no joy

you know the high volume of postings we get here, so don't be surprised if no one noticed after it moved to page 2 or beyond.

ClockworkMod Recovery have ROMs that will work with the update.zip

but only if you have the Full version of the ROM

if you created a backup before the skin changes with the ClockworkMod, then you can also restore that one.

Last resolt if you did not create any backup before getting... loopy... is to use Odin with any Firmware you choose.

yea i paniced and posted before i went to work, with no reply ive been doing some more researching over the last hour and pretty much figured that out. So hopefully ill be fine flashing a different firmware.

The best resource imo which i havent seen posted enough!

https://www.wuala.com/Samsung Galaxy S/?key=AfzUZSU4SpKU

just needs a couple more firmwares i think, you recon JM1 or JM2 ? guessing they are newer than JG5 , and JM1 was released over kies and was what i was using before.

I will use clockwork this time around! as i plan on making more graphical changes in the future, will be doing them myself this time tho!

well if you are going to be using custom ROMs in the end, then any Euro version of the i9000 ROMs will work for you, just to get you back on your feet, and then you can reload another custom ROM of your liking.

no i doubt i will be using custom roms, as i prefer installing things to my liking not someone elses. after reading the 19 page thread about the JM6 firmware, i think im going to stick with JM1 as its most highly rated and was officially released to UK through Kies so must be nice and stable

thanks for your replies yet again!

You need the firmware file, the PIT file, and Odin. The links for all of that is on the above page. The PIT file and Odin are under the section called "Flash Tools."

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbtady:
Is anyone else having problems getting Voice Mail notifications? For some reason mine don't show up and I have to call my voicemail randomly just to know when I have one. Is there an app I can download that can help with this? Thanks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aphotix:
If you aren't getting the voicemail indicator, its most likely a network issue. The MWI (Message Waiting Indicator) Is a text message sent to your phone when a voicemail is deposited into your inbox. If you are receiving sms just fine, but aren't getting voicemail indications, You're going to have to call customer care from a different device, they will basically just reset your location on the network, resend the activation downloads and toggle your messaging services. That pretty much always fixes it.

You might want to also activate Visual Voicemail (just access the application, it will activate as long as your account is set up correctly.)

Thanks for the suggestions, I downloaded voicemail Notifier and it works fine, so I'll just stay with that. I think I deleted Visual voicemail when I was deleting bloatware.

Anyone else having these problems?
[Vibrant General] firekesti:
Starting Download...

When you try to download from the Market, it hangs at "Starting Download..." and stays there for days? When you try to open Gtalk it perhaps immediately force-closes?

I was trying to find the solution to this for about four or five days - in the end, I had to do a factory reset. Google is (mostly) unresponsive about this problem.

Things I tried:

Toggling Wifi (nothing)

Changing google acct password so the Market has to ask for it again, perhaps resetting something? (didn't work)

Clearing data, cache, the whole shebang from Gtalk, Market, Gapps (no juice)

Couple of restarts (noooope)

Starting downloads and then killing the Market app - still nothing, and done mostly as a last resort.

Possible causes:

It was not tied to rooting the device - what I think happened was when I went to purchase Root Explorer, I had to create a Google Checkout subaccount, and then I was able to grab it...but after that, I could not install any apps from the Market. It seems like internationally this issue is tied to being @googlemail vs @gmail, but that wasn't my case. I've since restored Vb to her former glory, but it was tedious...factory resets suck and I hope I never have to do another one.

What I've done to keep this from happening in the future:

ROM Manager and Clockwork Recovery. I had backups of my apps and data on my computer of course, but this is soooo much easier.

I'll definitely let you know if it ends up flailing out on me again, but so far I haven't had any problems. If you have an app to back up your stuff, or if you want to just do it manually, do that and then selectively restore things after the factory reset. I actually had so few apps that I ended up just re-downloading them from the Market and everything is working smoothly, but that might be a hassle for others.

Hi Everyone,

Im at my ends right now with trying to get my EVO to connect to 4G. Can anyone help out? All it does is sit there telling me its scanning, never has connected. I am in the Miami area and even though its not "official" why is it that I have had several EVO's next to mine that where the same exact ROM, PRL, Kernal ect. and they can connect with no problems. I have also had my phone in Seattle and it did not connect there either. The only other thing I can think of is that either my 4g chip on the phone is broke or they limited testing to a certinain MAC addresses. Any thoughts?

Notes*

-Phone is Rooted with "TheBiles" method.

-Phone has been flashed with several different ROMS and kernals, including the latest of BakedSnacked 1.5, Latest Fresh, and latest Stock 2.2 ROM (rooted Version).

-Phone has the latest radio and WIMAX from Baked snack. Tried several different WIMAX .zip files from other sites, but not a older version. scared to do that.

-Tried updated PRL, PRI ect. rebooting, updating WIMAX, Updating Radio, Deleting the XML file (which re-appears with the correct MAC on the back of my phone.)

Phone currently has:

BakedSnack V 1.5

Version 2.2

Baseband Version: 2.15.00.07.28

Kernal 2.6.32.15 HeroMod #2
