Why do you want to go back to 2.1? If you want to get the Orange OTA update you can't as they're no stock RUUs available so you'd have to wait.

Otherwise, follow thie guide:

When i have my phone in my pocket i constantly press the meny-buttun by mistake witch turns on the screen and drains the battery. Is it possible to have only the top button activate the screen. I dont know what SE was thinking putting both the wake up and the unlock function on a raised button...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] benjymous:
You could set an unlock pattern, which makes it much harder to unlock accidentally. Couple this with a widget to turn the lock pattern on/off, then you can quickly turn it on when you're going out, and turn it off again when you're back home, and don't need it enabled.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] dettofatto:
I think that the best option is with only the power button...

For me...

Do you have any idea?

Thank You!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ivawe:
Id love to know about how to remap the buttons too. Im having a hate relationship with the powerbutton as its used to lock the screen. Its kinda recessed so i have to hurt my finger/ use my fingernails to actually push the button.

Any other solutions on how to lock the screen without actually using the powerbutton is also appreciated :)

If the upload speeds are capped at 150 kbs, how smooth is video chat for the other person?

This is meant for ppl who've tried video chat over 3g
[Epic 4G General] MvP77:
Me and my girlfriend tried it with fring and it was horrible, not worth using at all. Never thought that this had anything to do with the upload speeds. Our download speeds on 3g arent that great either so i thought that was the problem. We get 4G right up the road and have been meaning to test it but havent got around to it.

Oh... thats no bueno :/ so im pretty much screwed unless im home on wifi because theres still no 4g in nyc for whatever reason :(

[Epic 4G General] mommasboy:
Yes I've tried it, its cool but I think it worked better on my Evo before they took Skype away. The quality isn’t that great, but it’s manageable. I think that’s due to the upload cap though, not sure.

You can use Android Commander if you're not as adb syntax inclined as I am and use the nice GUI to just manually drag and copy these files across to /system/app folder or wherever the old apk files are located...

Don't mean to hijack but would you mind elaborating on how you can use Android Commander to install these apps? I have never used it before so I am not sure how it would replace ADB.

once paired you can send files to the other phone.

try sending files.

if sending files does not work, download an app called "bluettoth file transfer" from the market and send files using this app.

i've testing android roms on my hd2 for a few weeks and i still have this question:

WHY A WM USER WOULD WANT ANDROID ON HIS/HERS HD2?

1. generaly a wm user doesn't like iOS (iphone). and android is in so many ways similar to ios

2. i can't find something that android could do and wm couldn't

3. i can't see any difference in speed or smoothness between wm and android

4. i can agree that the amount of applications or games is definetely higher on android, but one can find basicaly anything he/she wants also for wm

so, please guys let me know why do you want android on yours hd2

thank you!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Life Engineer:
Well i asked this question myself a lot!

Even if i'm running on Android for 3 weeks now and i didn't use WM since than; it is still not easy in my opinion to answer it!

I've done it just for curiosity and for change!

All i can feel is that it's more stable and that is what i'm interested in a phone! I don't like freezes or crashes and as you said anyone can find whatever he wants in any OS... As for speed and smoothness yes they are really the same...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Wildcopper:
Thing is... since you can have both with no problems at all, why not have both?

You get the stability and efficiency of Windows Mobile for daily work, including Office Mobile and other features Android doesn't have, and then you have Android with its huge application pool for more "fun" uses.

Windows Mobile = professional tool.

Android = kid's toy

For now at least - Android is still way to instable and also, even worse, way too power hungry to be used professionally on a HD2. I need to be able to use my phone intensively all day long without having to recharge after a few hours because the battery gets drained big time.

+1

for me the mail app and the google sync is miles apart from the rubbish windows dishes up

I really don't like HTC Sense and I find WM 6.5 ugly, cumberson and very un user friendy

Added to the fact that the app store is miles better than Market place the apps and widgets are generally of a very high standard and most are free...

I will never go back to Windows mobile now, completely hooked on android ..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Luckeie:
- Speaksearch

- Augmented Reality (Goggles, Layar)

- Java Development
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] noris08:
now, this is definetely a solid statement.:p can you bring some arguments equaly solid?

mail app and google sync - nonsense as wm has exchange and myphone for sync.

interface ugly - that's a question of taste, but you can personalise your interface in so many ways. take for instance maxsense or spb mobile shell. android interface is so iphoneish...

now this is something, although speak search you can have also in wm (bing for instance).

augumented reality - i don't know what that is and how can i use it on my android hd2

java development - is this important? in wich way?

for al 3 guys above - if android is so cool and wm is not, why don't you buy an android phone instead of using a wm phone with an imperfect android ported rom?

this is not a flame attempt is just an honest question

thank you all!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
Personally Its about looks and widgets.

I know It sounds odd but I hate the look of winmo.

I also dont like having to scroll through a bunch of different screens when I can have a screen with a bunch of different info on it.

Sense on winmo comes across as a big hinderence. Only thing that made winmo bareable to me was cht and even that drove me crazy.

I always say this but as a user of all three os I am just more comfortable with android than anything else.

So i guess I would not consider myself a winmo user. I bought the phone with the intent on using android at some point.

It is hard to get people to adjust to something different. Most avid winmo users will say they like winmo better. Most avid android users will say that like android.

It all boils down to what you like.

If someone has always used intel and you get them to buy a amd when they get a virus they will blame you for suggesting the amd. I know this because I work retail. I have learned not to let my feelings or judgements get in the way.

So I say if you like winmo stick with it.

Old winmo is dead hopefully windows phone 7 can be ported to the hd2. Otherwise those who like winmo will be stuck doing it old school.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Luckeie:
I'am waiting for the Motorola Defy. ;-)

I find the HD2 with WM also good. But i'am curious.

Bing? Speaksearch? How?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
As for why people dont flat out buy a android phone.

I am a t-mobile user. I do not wish to use sprint or verizon so that limits the number of phones I can use with the very large 4.3 inch screen.

We arent getting the Desire hd here in the Us. and frankly the samsung captivate is too small and missing led flash.

google 2 nexus 1 mytouch slide screens are all too small!

price is also important. If someone already has an hd2 why spend more money on a new phone when you can use android.

buggy as it maybe its pretty dang fantastic.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bharris25:
Turn by turn gps in Google maps is great. Windows mobile is dated. Looks basically the same as it did 8 or 9 years ago. It was designed to be used with a stylus and android was designed for touch. I don't know why people say android looks like i OS, it really looks nothing like it with widgets instead of page after page of apps.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
I agree sir I truly agree. I cant stand Ios personally.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] doubleburgerbarr:
Windows is unstable, it crashes at least once or twice a week without any heavy usage.

I went back to the HD2 after owning an iphone for 18 months, I didn't like the way apple control everything so went back to Windows and regretted it ever since. The iphone required maybe three or four reboots in 18 months.

Now I'm running Android on the HD2 and rarely drop back to windows for anything.

There are certainly problems at the moment with Android on the HD2, these will be overcome (remember these are really just beta versions at the moment) relatively quickly and we will have a stable operating system that is highly configurable and far far superior to Windows.

I'm using mdeejay_froyo_sense_v2.1a_ppp with a 2.12 radio and stock 02 uk Rom. I still lose signal occasionally with this release but no screen freezes after a week of heavy use. For me it is now more stable than windows.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] noris08:
guys, this is not wm vs android

please remember the question - Why do you want Android on HD2?

you all bought hd2 as a wm phone, so i find it odd that you say so many bad words about wm. did somebody twist your arms to buy hd2 or did you chose it freely?

i completely disagree with the guy saing wm is instable - on my hd2 i use custom roms and they are extremely stable (nrgz, miri&steve, indie to name just a few chefs)

turn by turn - almost any gps sofware has it

and wm may be outdated but on hd2 is very finger friendly. i don't see the need of a stylus no matter what i do

where i live a second hand hd2 is selling for 3-400Euros. with that money you can buy a samsung galaxy s - same size, even better technical specs

and yes, bing has speak search. in the home page you will see a small microphone icon. press it and the speak what you are looking for and wait for the magic

and as i said before, you can customize your interface in so many ways...

so, again, why android on hd2?

thank you!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
We arent bashing windows mobile. These are our reasons as to why we want android on the hd2. A lot of regular users I know have had horrible experiences with the hd2. Most of the people I speak with hate the phone. The fact that they have winmo on the phone matters not to them.

You must have by passed the fact that I said the galaxy's screen is to small for me. Yes .3 inches matters and the fact that the galaxy s doesnt have led flash for camera's is a major kill

Like I said I chose it freely to put Android on it. When i got my phone The nexus 1 was the only android phone with decent spec's. Frankly the 3.7 inch screen is too small.

hi folks

i'm from Korea, far east part of Asia. Well to make a brief introduction about my self, i'm now a junior in my univ and majored in electrical engineering(which studies lots of circuits and microcomputers)

youknow, sometimes, motorola's smartphones are converted into Korean style before they are imported to the country.

So, actually, lots of fixes and roms here don't work on some Korea-Only models(like xt720, korean version of Motorola milestone). if only i could have a little bit of understandings about rom developing, i think i can twist some xda-existing roms and get them work on my korean-version of smartphones.

I do have basic understandings about computers and languages(c/c++, java) but what shall i do first to get a full-understanding of how the booting process of smartphones work and the way that roms are loaded?

If you know any kinda of recommendations of documents, websites and information that i should take a look into, please let me know.

remember, i'm a noob here
