haha, sorry about that! the beauty of these phones is you pretty well cannot screw them so they wont work permanently. I had to flash my phone at least 10 times while i was getting used to how it all works. Dont even think twice about it now :)

Live and learn hey - Now try it again with another font. Try the Sony Sketch one, it is proven working by several users so far. Good one to test with.

have fun!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Salvatore Di Vita:
Hello,

on my HTC TyTN II (Kaiser) are some entries in the registry for the band

selection (dword:00000001, short with 1 etc.)

1= UMTS2100+GSM900/1800

2= UMTS850/1900+GSM850+1900

3= UMTS800+2100

4= UMTS850+2100+GSM900/1800

5= UMTS850+GSM900/1800

Is there a dword for UMTS2100 and GSM1800 only?

Thanks and regards

Salvatore
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
So that you can make it run with TMobile?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Salvatore Di Vita:
I live in Germany and use the device with the mobil network of O2 (telefonica). O2 mainly uses GSM1800 and UMTS, sometimes EGSM (850).

I would like to use it without EGSM (850) and GSM900 and therefore I would like to to deactivate EGSM (850) and GSM900.

Due to the fact that my girlfriend needs to help me with the translation, my answer may take a few days.

Best regards

Salvatore

Is it possible to force a 4G connection on the Epic or EVO? With both phones they keep switching between 4G and 3G and I have a great signal on both. BTW, the top speed on the Epic was 3.4 and the EVO's highest was 1.8
[Epic 4G General] GrandMstrBud:
This is the highest from my Epic.
[Droid Incredible General] stlandroidfan:
OK - here's the deal. I hope I'm not posting redundantly...

I've tried several ROMs in the past week and I have to say that changing each one is a tedious process. With each new one, I've used Titanium to backup everything. But even with Titanium, I always lose my call records, SMS other than what's in Google Voice, keyboard preferences, dictionary (the words I enter into HTC's dictionary), ALL email accounts, language preferences, app layout and scenes, and even some apps are lost because Titanium can't recover them. I especially hate losing the individual dictionary. WORST OF ALL IS THE EMAIL ACCOUNT LOSS. Having to setup Exchange, Yahoo, GMail each time even with a tiny change in the ROM really sucks. Titanium restore takes something like an hour and for each one I have to approve each app, even though I do it in batch mode. So that kind of defeats the purpose of BATCH.

I backup my 2.1 SMS and call records with SMS Backup and Call log backup apps, but neither one successfully restores on Froyo. So I've lost 6 months worth of call logs and SMS because of incompatibilities with Froyo.

This time, I'm also doing a Nandroid + Titanium. But as I said, those won't save my email accounts, call records, SMS records, dictionaries, keyboard preferences, layout and scenes, some apps and many other things...

The one thing I liked about BlackBerry (probably the ONLY good thing) was the backup - it saved everything.

My question is: is there an all-encompassing total & complete backup solution for Android? If not, then I just don't think I'll be updating ROMs very frequently because I simply don't have an hour to waste approving app restoration in Titanium and all that other crap (Install--> Done --> Install --> Done x 100 apps is ridiculous!).
[Droid Incredible General] rcicu:
I use Titanium for all my apps and MyBackup Pro for my SMS, Bookmarks, ect... http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.rerware.android.MyBackupPro

Good Luck
[Droid Incredible General] douger1957:
Come off the cake and donate to the devs of Titanium. Restoring your programs becomes automatic then.

The only thing I don't get a consistent restore on is the home page layouts.
[Droid Incredible General] halcyon_22:
app backing up and restoring is awesome if you donate to titanium devs. it is definitely on the top of my list of awesome paid apps. 1 click backup and restore is only available if you donate along with a nice boost in speed in the app. Also, there is a nice feature in titanium that allows you to create a unsigned zip to flash titanium as an app right after you flash the rom, so on your first boot you already have it to restore apps in case you dont have 3g or wifi access.

i have heard good things about mybackup as well for sms and call log, but i have only used it once because now all my texts and calls are in gvoice, so no restoring needed there.

as far as email goes, i dont mind setting my accounts back up nor losing my dictionary. thats about the only thing that i have to redo every time i flash a new rom.

Hi,

Would like to know if there is plans on PS Groove development for Xperia x10. I think many people would appreciate this.

Thanks and good work btw on the bootloader so far.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vinkel:
Hey have a look at this link ;-)

PSGroove being ported to Android Devices!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zerojay:
Sony will have it patched before it gets done, so it's going to be quickly irrelevant anyways.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reb0rn:
Do you know that for a fact or is it just one of your many assumptions...

Cuz last i heard from the "hacker" team that made the psjailbreak code that not even them are too sure on any of the sides, nobody actually knows.

And cuz the ps3 is open to homebrew, whats the difficulty of patching the update string? I mean they already have made "stalth gaming" possible by editing sertain files...

And the ps3 has a HUGE game library that personally for me just thats enough cuz i almost never play online on it.

I bought a AVR chip with PSGroove support so to speak. I will have it on Monday, but if i knew it would be developed for Android i wouldnt have bought it.

So belive me, not too many ppl care "if" Sony patches it... And even if they do, the exploit cannot be patched, its a lot like the iPhone Jailbreak.

Let the Cat&Mouse game begin...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddewbofh:
This project tickles the very core of my geekdom. Not so much because it opens up the PS3 for piracy but but because it's a completely insane yet feasible and even kinda logical concept.

Emulating an 8mhz Atmel on the Snapdragon? Very doable.

Proper hardware access to the USB port? With rooted phone, you have it.

So theoretically it's possible and if it comes to fruition we'll be able to "root" the PS3 by hooking up our cellphones to it and running some software. I don't know about you guys but for me that would be a serious contender for the "Epic hack of the year" award. :)

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddewbofh:
I'm looking at what parts need to be modified and if porting it is even possible to begin with. Both Maemo and Android run Linux kernels but that's about it as far as similarities go. Even though it's a separate kernel module it needs to have certain options built into the kernel. If those bits aren't there we're SOL.

Update: The configuration file for the stock kernel indicates that the USB chipset supports HCD (Host Controller Driver) mode at least.

There's doesn't seem to much in development happening I've put my name down for beta testing but who knows if i get in.

Maybe if there's someone working on the netzke team build they could let us know some info.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddewbofh:
Time for a quick update on my research.

From what I can find out about the X10 through config-files and /proc it looks like it uses the msm72k driver. By comparing that with the musb driver and looking at how PSFreedom uses musb it doesn't look impossible to get it running with the msm72k driver.

Right now I'm looking at how to get/set the device address and endpoint. Getting the endpoint name is pretty straight-forward but getting the physical address needed is slightly trickier. But I'll keep hammering away on it. :)

Warning: My attention-span is really short so odds are I'll keep working on this in bursts. So while there's a big chance I'll get it working soonish you shouldn't hold your breath. :)

Don't get your hopes up, the project is a textbook example of a scam.

It bugs me that he's raking in cash with nothing to show for it while others (like myself) are doing 12+ hour hackruns. :/

Well I haven't spent 12 hours coding, most of the time has been spent working on circumventing the limitations of the stock kernel and figuring out the hardware. :P

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brat81:

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Findee:
With netzke?

If you're referring to him then during a hurricane he claimed he lost power and we haven't heard from them since.

EDIT: another thing I have noticed with netzke is that he keeps making references to having a team that he is working on this with and yet he has never said who they are. He has only said they are there.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddewbofh:
If you're referring to my work there has been some progress and some setbacks. The X10 appears to have the requirements needed but unfortunately it has also has a major roadblock compiled into the kernel. If that part had been compiled as a module it'd been easier to work around but I'm looking at a few possible ideas. :)

In short: the psfreedom module isn't impossible to get built but it's functionality is being blocked by another driver in the kernel.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Battosai94:
If Kernel patches are needed, we have to wait until a Custom Kernel can be launch?

Thanks for your work :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddewbofh:
Yeah, looks like that's the only way. Been at this since Saturday morning and a custom kernel looks like it's the only way. It appears we're SOL until we have a custom bootloader.

This is actually the first time I've questioned my decision to get an X10 instead of the Desire, not because I'm desperate to jailbreak the PS3 but because of the customization. :)

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddewbofh:
Exactly, which is why we need a custom kernel so we can turn it off.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brat81:
So custom kernel means we need that bootloader cracked, can we edit the kernel on the fly it's probably a dirty way of doing it.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zdzihu:
You can try to edit kernel on the fly with ksplice, but it's tricky and works only for small changes
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddewbofh:
We need to disable large parts of the USB stack which is a little too ambitious for ksplice. :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yourmama:
Guyz I am new on the scene :D I have no experience whatsoever in android dev, got some experience from PSP **** lol :P so this question might sound noobish.

Is custom kernel possible for the x10i? because I am very desperate for Backup manager lol :P

I heard about a ti-84 port that was in the works but I thought that one on my x10i would be epic lol :P
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brat81:
As custom kernels go for the x10 it's not quite possible yet as the bootloader still hasn't been cracked.

It is possible to edit the kernel on the fly but as stated above it's not really logical.

Really we need to get this bootloader cracked asap.

What if we run a script to load a custom kernel within android afiak it was possible to load debian the same way so i'm sure it should be possible to do so.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddewbofh:
It sounds like you're thinking of the debian chroot that was doing the rounds a while back. With that we still used the booted kernel, we just transferred over to a different root file-system. In essence we got a new system running on top of the old kernel.

That obviously won't work since we're really only after a new kernel for this hack. It's easy to confuse chrooting to a different system and upgrading your running system if you're unfamiliar with the process. :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brat81:

This is an issue that a lot of Hero users had. I was fortunate enough to not experience it with the Hero, but my current time without signal is 52% on my Epic. If I remember correctly, it was a PRL problem, but it might also be the radio. It would be the cause of serious battery issues. I've attempted updating my profile and PRL to no avail. Is anyone else having time without signal issues?

To check, go to settings -> about phone -> battery use -> cell standby.
[Epic 4G General] thematrixkid17:
I thought it was just a reporting issue
[Epic 4G General] DevinXtreme:
No. I remember what it was now. It was that the Hero wasn't set to use CDMA towers and was searching for GSM towers for some reason. Something to do with the fact that the Hero was originally a GSM phone, which would make sense here. Someone in the thread that was created just a bit ago suggested it had something to do with the PRL update, which is possible, because I did it and that's when I started getting bad battery life and a high percentage of time without signal.

I've been having a hell of a time with my data connection today, which would explain my poor battery.
[Epic 4G General] icantdrawanime:
I've got a very high time w/out signal as well... I'm surprised this hasnt gotten more attention. Its a huge battery drain.
[Epic 4G General] TheRob44:
...

I've got 50% time without signal on mine. It seems likely that the searching for GSM towers could be happening on this phone as well because of all the material that crossed over from the international versions. Is there a way to check and/or fix this problem and get the phone to only search for the CDMA towers?

Thanks,

I dont think WCDMA is available in the US.
[Epic 4G General] TheRob44:
...

Can you please elaborate a bit on how to change network preferences?

Thanks,

-Rob
[Epic 4G General] icantdrawanime:
Go to the android market and search for an app called "Network"

Open up the app, you should see WCDMA Preferred in a drop down box near the bottom of the screen. Select that and change it to CDMA auto.

Exit the app.

Your Time without service should drop really low (mine went to 3%)

I've had the app behave strangely and revert my settings. I'm paranoid so i've been checking it pretty often. I'm not sure if there is a way to make this change permanent. I dont know if it reverts when the phone is rebooted.
[Epic 4G General] DevinXtreme:
The way that the problem was solved on the Hero was by accessing a system menu through a ##CODE## code and telling it to prefer CDMA towers. It was defaulted, for some, to GSM. Because I never had this issue, I don't know a whole lot about it. I know that ##CODE## codes are not available on this phone, though, so we might be out of luck until we can get into some kind of dev menu, I think. The app fix mentioned above sounds janky as hell to me, though, so I'll avoid it for now.

My phone has a hell of a time holding on to a data connection right now, but Juice Defender is really helping that not absolutely kill my battery. Aside from this one concern, my battery is actually lasting a surprisingly long time. I was expecting it to die nearly twice as fast as my Hero, but it is definitely giving it a run for its money. I'm very pleased with the Epic :)
