none of these fixes work. can I get a real solution? Ive tried every fix posted..still not working
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VeryCoolAlan:
I was using clockwork on my g1 and I put fix permissions I rebooted like it said and now it says I have a damaged sd? I went to the recovery and install a zip and all my folders are there? So it's damaged but all my info is there? How can I fix this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigdavep:
Hi all,

I tried searching for this issue but no success on paging through and search still seams to be down (for me).

I use my HD2 as an MP3 player when I'm out and about. The problem is, when I use it in the car (I have an AUX in on my car stereo so plug it directly in via the 3.5mm audio out jack) and have it plugged in to charge (especially when I have SatNav running as well) it makes an odd noise, its not loud and doesn't disrupt the music but it is clearly there and only does it when plugged into charge in the car (not noticed it via earphones when plugged in via PC or Mains).

I tried putting one of those Ferrite cable magnets on to try and stop any interferance but that has no effect.

Has anyone else had this? Does anyone know a way of fixing it as it does get annoying, especially on long trips I have to do for work?

Cheers

BigDave
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xlr8me:
The charger is causing the interference. Try another charger if you can...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
I second that. Your car charger probably isn't shielded enough and you are getting electrical interference.

Try a motorola microusb car charger. maybe 10 bucks on amazon. That is what i am using and I don't get any interference.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d0ug:
I have this too, using my HTC branded cig lighter charger. It is alternator/ignition system noise coming though the cig lighter.

Just about any car audio shop should be able to install a noise filter on your cig lighter socket to eliminate most of the noise. You can also find these on ebay for about $20-30 and install yourself. They are easy to install. Generally they wire inline on the Pos wire and have a 3rd wire coming out of the filter that you tie to a grounded portion of the car body.

I had to install the above mentioned filters i picked up off ebay onto my stereo head unit and amp. There is still a nearly unnoticeable amount of noise. and I mean to hear it you have to turn the volume all the way up, have the car stopped, and no audio playing. Normal road noise or music content otherwise drowns it out. Now that i use my HD2 with the stereo I need to filter the cig lighter as well, I just haven't gotten around to it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigdavep:
Cheers d0ug, just what I was looking for.

Thanks for the other replies too guys, i know it wasn't a specific charger issue as it did it with my HTC charger (before i broke it) and with my current outlet (a single unit with 2x 12v outlets and 2x USB sockets fed from a single 12v, only 1 usb in use at the moment).

Will try to pick one of those 12v noise filters up as soon as i can

It would appear that our long wait is drawing to end and the 2.1 should be released shortly. Unfortunately, there are some features that us soon to be 2.1 owners might still be missing to complete our X10 experience.

In order to get a jump on future improvements this thread is a place where you can comment on features that you would like to see added/cooked to our X10's after the revision.

What feature would you like to see added? Portable HotSpots, Voice Command over Bluetooth, Data backup, 10.1, etc...

Or, maybe you know about an existing work around and would like to spread the word?
[XPERIA X10 General] chris_knows:
Portable hotspots can be done now (with root access)...Barnacle WiFi Tether from the Market.

Besides for Flash and the speed improvements, I don't really need Froyo. Automatic app updates would be nice, and voice commands too, but I doubt I'd ever really use that.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
I've already used froyo on my nexus one when I had it and I couldn't care less for froyo. 2.1 is most definitely good enough for me. 720p video recording, 16million colors is all I want. Mt doesn't matter either. 2.1 drops and ill be set.
[XPERIA X10 General] tigger69:
unfortunatley it looks like there will be no 16m colors.

[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
Thanks for the info on Barnacle. Have you used it? Maybe this is a silly question, but I know you lose SE updates with root. Would auto app updates still work from a rooted device?

And, 10.1 yeah that is a pretty big one. I really don't need a cell phone/portable device, but since I have it, 10.1 is a big yes. Kind of THE reason I purchased the X10.
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
You purchased a phone based on it's potential ability to run an incredibly useless web plug-in?

[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
Well if this turns out to be true there will be even more upset X10 owners than there already are.
[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
This is a friendly thread, please no personal attacks or flaming. :cool:
[XPERIA X10 General] dong2007:
Wonder that with a rooted mobile app can get payment is via market, hotspots, screenshot, but not an app that can do that stored on the sdcard instead of internal...Sorry for my semi OT...
[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
It never crossed my mind. A valid point.

Apps to sdcard would be a blessing. I hope this could be added. It would make a root worth while.
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
Not a personal attack or flaming.

I'm curious to why Flash is needed on a mobile phone. The option to have it is nice, but it not being there is definitely not a drawback. Most big video sites use HTML5 for video now, and for the few that don't, Skyfire works fine in loading the videos up. The only other things Flash is used for is ads, games and poorly designed websites. For games, 95% would control absolutely awfully, due to the lack of physical controls on the device. And no one wants to view ads if they don't have to.

Hence, my reasoning for not considering a "lack" of Flash as a "limitation" of 2.1.
[XPERIA X10 General] tuxStyle:
The thing is, we all bought this phone knowing it supports 65k colors.

SE didn't say anywhere that it will get 16mil with 2.1 upgrade ... or anything else.

People assumed is a 1.6 downside (like the 256Mb ram vs 384) and because the mini was advertised as 16mil it means X10 has it too.

Time will tell if is a driver issue or hardware issue :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Reeonimus:
Not having 16m colors is kind of a bummer. Not really needed though.

All i'm really looking forward to at this point is the app compatibility. Anything else is just icing on the cake.
[XPERIA X10 General] bongd:
It's needed because it's highly desired and also available on other phones - I don't mean to sound cynical or rhetoric but I certainly want it for a variety of reasons. It's not as bad as you make it out to be. Even so, many people like myself highly desire this. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
They say "at this time" which tells me not with 2.1 but maybe with that updtate to timescape/mediascape they are talking about....if not I think I will be a unhappy camper.
[XPERIA X10 General] Tjotte:
+1, only thing i'd really really like to see enginered to our 2.1 is app2sd. Not that i have so many apps it's a total need for it, just becouse i like it that way. Feels better to have a clean rom. Easier to re-flash and play around with cooked roms without having to re-install all apps aswell.
[XPERIA X10 General] h0ruza:
Not sure how many people have seen this and whether they believe it to be real.

http://www.xperiax10.net/2010/09/11/android-roadmap-leaked-for-xperia-x10-family/

I reckon the chance of getting anything additional to whats been listed (If this is real) are fairly low taking into account the SE software development speed we've come to know and love.

"Most truths we're once deemed blasphemies"
[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
It doesn't really effect me either. But I know that there will be people who might be left wanting.

We all want different things from our X10's. The idea of the thread is that we high light what is important to each of us. And, we can post work around as we find them.
[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
I am with you on that. If I could only ask for one thing it would start with 10.1.

Not saying that there isn't a list of other things that I would like. Such as apps2sd. We can only hope and wait for someone to either come up with a work around or buy a device with more features. :(
[XPERIA X10 General] bongd:
fm1776, I sincerely hope we don't need to do that but to be honest I'm already trying to get a subsidized handset from my provider. I hope I don't need to go that route though! :(

I'm still holding out though. Cross your fingers!
[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
I have been crossing my fingers for the last eight months brother! However, I did also get a second device that streams video back in July ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] Keithod:
Some people are saying that 16m colours isn't a big deal but won't it become a big deal when we get 720 video recording? Wouldn't it be very noticeable then?

Or is this 720 recording going to be like that LG phone before where we can record in high definition but can't play back?

Is there going to be video talk on 2.1? If not is there a possible workaround?
[XPERIA X10 General] NightSidew1nd3r:
There is no front facing camera, so no
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
No front facing camera does not necessarily mean you can't make video call, it would be awkward I admit but the feature to make the video call could be there.
[XPERIA X10 General] NightSidew1nd3r:
It would be useless, what's the point. You would either have to have a mirror to use the camera on the back, or get some sort of add on camera or not be able to see who your talking to so they can see you. I highly doubt se or any Devs would bother for a device that is clearly not made for it. I'm sorry but if vid talk is important to you, maybe you should have gotton a different phone :-)
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
Well video calling works right now on the X10... I've tried it with fring

But I don't see the point of it... its more like a one way video call, ie the other person can see u, but unless u have a mirror you can't see them (or the other way around)
[XPERIA X10 General] johndub71:
I remember trying it when 3 first came to uk. Wasnt anything to right home about. Data heavy, battery heavy... Unless your talking to a stunner...
[XPERIA X10 General] chongbh:
I guess it is the same for most phone manufacturers as they will stop the phone firmware upgrade once it is stable enough with less bugs.

Taking example from HTC HD2, it has only one firmware upgrade since the launch of the phone and others are just some function upgrade, it is still running on Windows Mobile 6.5 while Windows mobile have other version like 6.5.3 and the upcoming Windows mobile 7. It has stop upgrading the firmware for a long time while they are preparing for a new phone with new windows mobile 7 OS.

I will expect HTC Desire or Galaxy S to stop at Android 2.2, they will sure to have new models to run on newer version of Android OS.

Just my sharing.
[Streak 5 General] Deleted member 2842059:
You guys think we'll see a fall price drop from Dell to compete with the shiny/awesome/latest coming in October or November? I still haven't seen any hard numbers on Streaks sold in the USA. I'm curious to see what Dell has done in sales and thinks it will do at the current price point.
[Streak 5 General] checkbox111:
Well what are the shiny awesome latest?

The only other item i've heard of arriving October is the Samsung Galaxy Tab,

and that's going to be $1000 or £685 for a 16gb :eek:

You can already buy two 32gb Streaks for that, so i wouldn't expect to much.
[Streak 5 General] Godo_PPL:
Dont forget the HTC announcement on the 15... :)
[Streak 5 General] Muo:
I would love to know Dell's sales as they supposedly said the pre-order amount was an outrageous number.

I highly highly doubt they will lower the price as ATT in prob in control. Screw the price drop and let's hope Dell offers an unlocked one!

[Streak 5 General] *Omnipresent*:
I wouldnt hold my breath for a price drop until around christmas.
[Streak 5 General] hexydes:
I'd be really interested in the sales figures in the US for the Streak. I still am yet to see someone who actually owns one, when I see tons of iPhones, lots of Droids, a good amount of EVOs, and even a few galaxies. I really think the actual sales figures here are going to be pretty abysmal...

I still can't believe how badly Dell blew the release on the Streak...simply pathetic...
[Streak 5 General] wonsanim:
+1 and Maybe Next Year:)
[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
I don't believe dell is taking the streak seriously. It could be a small pet project and due to the lack of marketing efforts and bad handling of the release date and a few other factors, I would expect much out of dell other then them stopping production unless they ramp up there efforts which could happen when they finally offer it in stores.
[Streak 5 General] Dogmann:
Hi all,

I also can't see any reason why Dell would reduce the price quite yet its not like anything else is coming along that blows it out the water and until the next generation processors start appearing the Streak is up there with the best of them processor and Ram wise. Not forgetting it has a bigger screen then its rivals to and i would say its also one of the best screens around especially when it comes to outdoor bright conditions where I'd actually say its better then most if not all the others.

[Streak 5 General] HansTWN:
They will drop the price when someone else comes out with a 5" screen and more advanced hardware.
[Desire General] webber2109:
Seems like a lot of people are facing problem waking up the phone resulting in getting black screen and nothing else.

I faced the same problem too that is why I decided to create a new thread specifically on this.

Let's share what caused our phone to go into coma based on our observations so that in time, the root of the problem can be traced.

Based on my observation, when my phone is left idle for some time, say 1-2hrs, it tends to become sluggish and setcpu will stuck at max or min value (Yes! sluggish even when stuck at max value!). Given long enough idle time, it will fail to wake up (e.g. every morning when i wake up after 7-8hrs of idle time).

I was using OpenDesire v4.0.10 and just changed to v4.0.15 to see if it still exist. I have setcpu set on 1075max 245min (ondemand) and 245max 245min (ondemand) when screen off. Also, using task manager.

Please share your observations and phone settings (ROM, versions, setcpu, task manager and others)
[Desire General] cgrec92:
have you tried removing setcpu?
[Desire General] webber2109:
Nope, but in OpenDesire thread, people without setcpu experienced the same thing. Do you have such problem?
[Desire General] shai.bosse:
I noticed using setcpu does make the phone sluggish. when uninstalled problem was solved.

Installed undervolt & got better batt life.
[Desire General] @ngel:
Perhaps, a more tailored topic title will help all readers understand what you're talking about. ;)

However, HAVS kernels is the only common factor and SetCPU is not the cause.

And, my two cents, I don't think this issue deserves a dedicated thread since is specific to a single kernel flavor.
[Desire General] webber2109:
what is this undervolt you talking about? mind elaborating a little?
[Desire General] webber2109:
I created a specific thread on this topic because there are many people out there experiencing this bug and there is no dedicate thread to discuss it. I assume you are not facing this problem because otherwise you would understand the pain and frustration of encountering this problem repeatedly
[Desire General] shai.bosse:
Undervolt is a kernel mod that you install and it lowers the cpu drain by setting it to use lower volt values on each cpu freq. This cause it to stay cooler too.

Look for it in this forum. [Kernel] undervolt
[Desire General] The Asgard:
I am suffering from this once per day on Defrost and OD so I suspect its kernal related. I am running the default HAVS kernel at the stock 998 frequency. I uninstalled SetCPU yesterday and had a lock this morning ( Defrost 4.1 ). The notification LED was flashing orange. So SetCPU is not causeing the problem. I have swapped over to SVS so I will report back on how that goes.
[Desire General] BumAround:
I use OpenDesire 4.0.10, then 4.0.15, then 4.0.16, each release for at least 3 days, and not for once have I encountered such "black death"....no setCPU of course. :confused:

Care to elaborate what apps you have there ?
[Desire General] @ngel:
That issue is relative to OpenDesire and DeFroST ROMs only, and when they use a particular kernel version (HAVS) on selected CPUs, so I continue to think that it'll be eventually sorted out by the respective developers and/or Kali- and the kernel team; those guys do monitor the ROMs threads so they're already aware of the issue.

And yes, I suffered the issue twice, as I wrote more times in the DeFroST thread. "Pain" (panic?) and "frustration" sound a bit strange to me, when dealing with overclocked, custom, highly tweaked cooked ROMs. If a reboot scares you, head for a stock HTC ROM and you'll be fine. ;)
[Desire General] GANJDROID:
I was worried I was the only one who had this. Thread title isn't that helpful for people seeking advice on it though. Get this after every reboot for about a minute until everything is back to normal.

Had the sluggish issue when using YouTube after about 20/30 mins, other than that I've had no lags.

Using 4.0.16

I got this on a svs kernal, so its not just restricted to havs. I had 1300 svs installed. With setcpu. Done the same with 1267 svs.
[Desire General] mikecsmith:
I've also had this issue on SVS kernels, was also having a series of hard resets last night - have rolled back to an earlier version of my favourite ROM flavour for now.
[Desire General] tolis626:
Never experienced anything like that...Although there are times that my Desire's performance would remind me of the bad old Diamond days,where patience was a virtue(well,not a virtue,but a money saving method!throwing your phone to the wall with your full strength after it frustrates you with being slow is known to be a costly process! :p ).Seems to be some apps running in the background...Maybe if your phone recovers after it without a reboot you can check if any apps use a larger than normal amount of ram.Other than that...Well,god is almighty and people experiencing epiphanies are known to work wonders through the ages! :p

And something completely off-topic(sorry about that).When using an undervolted rom/kernel you are not able to overclock to values as high as when using a normal-volted(is the word right?I dunno...) rom/kernel,right?I mean,what would happen if someone tried to overclock to 1382MHz(I know,I like the limits) using an undervolted kernel?And finally,how does this all apply to the hardware?Does UV affect the CPU's health like overclocking or something like that?

Thanks a lot! :)
[Desire General] Daelyn:
I've had it on OpenDesire 4.0.10 and 4.0.15 a few times. Stopped happening when I stopped using profiles and defaulted back to to 998/ondemand.

Will try running it on 998/interactive for a while and see what happens.
[Desire General] paamet:
No lockups after SetCPU to ondemand. OD 4.0.15.
[Desire General] drvdijk:
Separate thread IS useful, otherwise replies get lost in ROM threads where the focus is not specifically on this problem.

I too had this issue three times. DeFroST on all occasions, versions 3.x iirc. Never tried the HAVS kernels, just plain default what is shipped with the ROM (SVS @ 12xx Mhz?). Also SetCPU'd it, have not yet bothered to try and turn that off yet. SetCPU keeps it at 995 Mhz max, interactive governor, while switching to powersave while asleep.

Issue happened twice while browsing (possibly with Flash ads on the page by accident) and the power state switching (i.e. turn the device off quickly while running for train, afterwards reading for 2 minutes again, etc). Third time it happened while tethering my internet connection to my laptop.

Hth

I had this problem few times a day when I upgraded OD to .10 and the new ADW on the same day.

Then I restore back the old OD with old ADW, then no problem.

[Desire General] webber2109:
guys,

I am using OpenDesire v4.0.15 with full wipes. I set main profile 1075max 245min (ondemand) and screen off 245max 245min (ondemand). Miraculously, I woke up this morning without my phone in coma state. Previously i was using interactive, that could be the culprit.

Also note that while I was asleep, my phone was charged through out the night on airplane mode, though I dont think it has any contribution towards the miracle.

For those not using setcpu, try reflash the rom with full wipes.
[Desire General] The Asgard:
Done a full wipe with defrost 4.1 and not using setcpu and had this problem with default havs. Currently on default svs for 18 hrs with setcpu and so far no problem will report back.
[Desire General] The Asgard:
Still running fine with SVS after 26 Hrs. With HAVS I would have had a freeze by now.

Will report back if anything changes.
[Desire General] Benee:
Do you get this problem only with oc'ed kernels? My desire don't like the 1325 mv from OD or 1267 MHz. So I'm running my own kernel with slighter oc and I'm fine with HAVS.
[Desire General] BumAround:
Guys who have experienced this "black death" phenomenon, care to state which version of Desire do you own? I mean like the partial serial number (e.g. VPL, or WPL, etc) and like T-Mob/Vodafone UK, etc. etc.

I for on never experienced this so-called bug ever since OD 4.0.4, but am now concerned...

Just got a process system not responding with SVS

I'm on UK T Mobile one of the first ones. Not over clocked was fine unto about 3.7 ish. Never ever had a lock issue.
