Wake UP!!!

I don't think anyone is getting or seeing the pattern with SE.

We can all dream but whatever device they unveil will look amazing and sound amazing but it won't be released until a year after the first press release and something will be wrong with it.

The Sony Ericsson's way never changes. The only phone they release that had all the options of the time you could want was the w810. One of their best ever selling phones.

[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
To each his own. You your reasons for liking the iPhone and I have mine for liking the X10, there's no need for animosity. I don't visit the tuaw or macosxhints forums to spread my opinions on the iPhone or their products.

Mudslinging has no place on user forums, regardless of validity. I fail to see how it contributes to anything, doesn't even boost any egos. It only reflects poorly on the poster so there's no logical reason for it, it's not even a decent troll.

All in all, it just takes up time and effort. Why not spend it doing something productive? Playing with the recent iOS betadrops and SDKs is pretty fun, you could play around using those or something. If you're interested in Apple products they're goldmines with plenty of new stuff to keep one occupied.
[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
Mate, you know that I have been saying the same thing since May. Funny how now that the 2.1 has been pushed out, all those insulting me for stating the same thing have changed their tune. But now I get to say,,, I told you so! I said this would happen. And, the newbie first time SE owners hammered me. "oh, SE promised this, and SE promised that, and stop trolling... it didn't matter that I explained my experience with three other SE flagship devices. They would not hear it. What is the expression, he who laughs last laughs best. Only I am not really laughing. I wanted us to work together to get the most out of our devices, but that ship has sailed. X10 is completely worthless. It will be making a trip out to the flea market next weekend.

I only have two thoughts now.

1) It is possible that Gingerbread will complete remove third party UI's so we would not be waiting for SE to update anything on future device. We would get revisions directly from Android. We should all hope this is the case. It could be the best thing that ever happened to SE.

2) Or, maybe once again SE are first. We know from experience it will only be a matter of a few weeks before other device offering more features will hit the market. Maybe Galaxy S2 or some HTC device? If Gingerbread doesn't block 3rd party UI's SE is simply one less device to consider.

In either case it would be a good idea to wait a month or two after the next release.
[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
Thank you for an almost eloquent and consider thoughts on this subject of certain types of contributions.

However, if we apply the same logic to the time spent dressing down these contribution that you find fault with, is it not in fact accomplishing the same thing you wish to avoid in the eyes of the casual observer?

I believe there is an old saying that is befitting of this type of irony. 'Isn't that like the pot calling the kettle black?'
[XPERIA X10 General] h0ruza:
Ginger Bread may help the issue but it won't stop manufacturers from faffing with elements of androids UI plus that part of the appeal to the likes of SE. They can make a messy of a UI and claim the "User experience" is what you pay for rather than a device that resembles a current smart phone.

Dude in truth I want the features SE have the capability to install into a phone put into the next Xperia X1x.

I'm willing to accept that I knew the x10 would be crap or at least far from cutting edge its just the carrot of improvements that is basically cruel and will crush the heart of the most grounded SE fan.

I'll get a desire while a wait and a part of me thinks the next android from SE will be the opposite of the rip off x10 money spinner. An all singing all dancing xW810/K800i.

All SE fans are dreamers at heart

"Most truths we're once deemed blasphemies"
[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
Pretty hard to offer an argument to your point. Particularly when I would tend to agree with you. However, I would rather not have these SE added features that are claimed to be about improving the "user experience". Simply because in ever example from SE it has produced the opposite result.

There is the possibility that Android might offer a way where the 3rd party UI add-ons are impossible. If that is the case I would at least put SE into my consideration. And, if it is not I will simply not include SE devices in my next purchase.
[XPERIA X10 General] rynoon:
That's not what I would call a 'big announcement'. From the average users perspective it would be rather boring news and wouldn't directly benefit them.

More than likely they have a new product announcement in the pipelines.
[XPERIA X10 General] rynoon:
I have to say, your specifications seem a tad... made up.

No more third party UI's is a bit of a speculation. Google hasn't given a firm statement on this one way or another about whether or not support for a third party skin would be disallowed or not or whether they are adding support for skinning which doesn't require completely new launchers.

I'll assume you mean 1080p and I'll assume you're referring to video recording and encoding capabilities. With the processors we're looking at for the upcoming year that seems unlikely.

A 1280x760 resolution was rumoured, but only for devices which were 4" or larger.

512mb RAM minimum, also a rumour.

4" screen size minimum, not even a rumour.

You seem to be misquoting a rumour which Google's Dan Morrill (Android's Open Source Tech Lead) discredited. He said "I love it when people just make stuff up and report it as news."
[XPERIA X10 General] xtekm:
I'm no putting any hopes on SE releasing the next update, hope that someone will finally get a custom cooked 2.2 rom out!
[XPERIA X10 General] Contrarian:
Unfortunately custom 2.2 ROMS probably won't ever make it to our X10's. The best we can hope for is a rooted 2.1 (2.2 if it's ever released) with added features/functions.

As for "big surprises" - could mean anything. Maybe SE are working on their own operating system ?
[XPERIA X10 General] Dameon_03:
now im not sure if i want to pick this phone up as a "in between phone" now. from what im hearing in this forum, the support for the phone is questionable. i have been following this phone since i heard about it and was going to pick it up had it come out earlier. but as time passed, so did my interest for this phone. what got my interest back was the news that 2.1 would be here this month which is not the case now. i was trying to wait for that update to pick it up maybe because my kaiser running 2.1 is starting to fail hardware wise on me but now im not sure if i wanna pick this phone up.
[XPERIA X10 General] Contrarian:
take advantage of the idiots selling them on ebay for 1/3 of the original price. Sell it back to the same morons at a profit when 2.2 comes out.
[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
Once SE work the issues out of the 2.1 running with their skins the service providers will get the update to add their bit for those who are in a contract. That will take another couple of month's. So look at a Q1 release of 2.1 at the earliest. The 2.2 will never come to the X10 via SE.

I get one free phone a year and paid nothing for the X10. They are going for 200-250 pounds in the UK. Taking all things into consideration 250 or less is a good value for what you are getting (phone only). 250 or less is what the X10 should have sold for to begin with.

I will sell you mine for 300 pounds with an 8gb microsd! She is in perfect condition no scratched, still have the extra screen portector and, all the original doc's and packaging. Plus she is still a virgin, never been rooted.

Edit - I will include 4 movies on the sd card. Wedding Crashers, Ronin, Analyze This, and Good Will Hunting!

Hi,

Since yesterday when I go to the BBC football page it bombs out and goes back to the home screen just after it has finished loading. News is ok. Is anyone else having this problem? I'm on t-mobile, 2.2 official. Using default browser. I'm thinking maybe flash 10.1 update I dunno.

I'm using one of the Rogers-based ROM 2.1 with HTC Sense UI but on non of them I cannot sync my google contacts with facebook profiles (by Facebook for HTC Sense of course). I still get com.htc.bgp error which I googled but I couldn't find anything that would help me. Becasue I cannot get help form anywhere I'm asking here ;)

Facts:

-clearing data of gmail, calendar and it's storage does nothing

-I've logged to another gmail account with imported same contacts - didn't help

-I've changed name on my fb account (even I'm not Irish and I dont have *'* in name)

-I deleted HTC Sense from facebook - did nothing

-Logging on my Magic to my girlfriend's facebook account and it works - I can link google contact with fb contact....

-When I flashed good old CursorSense ROM (1.5 with Sesne UI) I also could link contacts even with my own fb account

-This error started appearing to me on Smoki 8.x and never had it before.

-FriendStream is working good.

I did almost everything and I was looking everywhere for a solution but I didn't get it. Any ideas? I would really appreceate for help, thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] barthd:

[Fascinate Android Development] DrewDanger:
I love HTC Sense! Not so much the main layout or launcher, but I love the menus and the contact integration with Facebook, Twitter, calander, favorites widget etc. If a Sense UI rom came out, or one integrated with Launcherpro this phone would be unreal! Please developers make this happen :)
[Fascinate Android Development] wasupwithuman:
I thought the Fascinate had pretty good integration... i do love sense too though.
[Fascinate Android Development] jatilq:
Vanilla rom with LP or

Cyan with ADW or LP.

I do like the gui for the Fascinate and sense ui, but being realistic I would be happy with a Cyan rom with ADW or LP

ADW would be perfect if it had the same widgets LP had.
[Fascinate Android Development] 40Glock:
Why don't you return your Fascinate and go get an Incredible then? Seriously, why buy the Fascinate and then ask for a Sense or Droid-X-ish port. Want some iOS while we're at it?
[Fascinate Android Development] magicriggs:
I think it would be awesome seeing sense on this phone. Because of the amazing hardware. Nothing that htc has is comparable to this phone. And since were on android we can port roms.
[Fascinate Android Development] DroidBee:
You reply is unnecessary. What's wrong with wanting the best of both worlds? I want the better hardware, screen (size), and battery life of the Fascinate with Sense. You don't? That's cool - just don't tell others what they should or shouldn't want.
[Fascinate Android Development] DrewDanger:
I actually own both phones so thanks =) Secondly I like the design of the Fascinate, I just like the UI of the Incredible way better. I mean really if you wanted a phone that looks like the iPhone why dont you return your Fascinate and go buy an iPhone?
[Fascinate Android Development] magicriggs:
If he bought an iphone then it would be running ios and not android. The ui on the incredible is called sense. Sense is a rom that can be ported over to other android devices. The fascinate has the highest rated cpu and graphics on the market to the date, also has the best screen to size ratio to date.so if you put a ui you love on a phone that can beautifully support it , then why not. Sense on the fascinate will be better then anything htc has with sense in americas carrier line up .
[Nexus One General] Amritttt:
Its time for my nexus to rest so which one should i go for Samsung galaxy s Or HTC desire hd,which has better CPU and gpu and ram.
[Nexus One General] Gilg@mesh:
I say Nexus One, wait until there is a phone that have things that the N1 don't have or can handle... the SGS and DHD is no big upgrade imo.
[Nexus One General] RellikZephyr:
Between those 2, go the HTC. Samsung has a bad name in android, until they change that, HTC is always the smartest option. For support, stability and updates
[Nexus One General] bfspider:
HTC all the way... geez! :P
[Nexus One General] Amritttt:
Lol what about windows mobile 7
[Nexus One General] stuff:
I'm going to be getting a new phone soon as well.

But I'm in the US. I hate getting subsidized phones, due to being locked in for 2 years, and the fact that once a new phone comes out on at&t (like the recent galaxy s) everyone gets it.. and that's annoying.

WinPhone7 looks kinda goofy. But I can't take a poke at it since it's not officially released yet.

The Desire HD is something I really desire though. :D
[Nexus One General] teihoata:
had a play with one of htc's yet to be released windows phone 7 phones and I've got to say, I'm considering hanging up my nexus for one. I hope someone manages to port windows phone 7 to the nexus, that would be sweet
[Nexus One General] thepawn:
Other then the EVO, there is no US-carrier freq spec Desire HD unfortunately.

There really needs to be a thread dedicated for the top 20 or top 50 apps you will need for a new Android phone.

I just got my HTC Wildfire today (A3333), and i've had an HTC Diamond for aaages but i don't know what to do!

One was Windows Mobile, the other Andoid!

- So which applications are "a must"?

- Which applications are recommended to replace existing features of Android?

- What paid applications are VERY useful and everyone should have?

- GPS / Office / Wireless / Sync / Management / Backups etc Software Recommendations? (if you have WM6.5/WM6.1 then see my Destinator v5/6/7 Topic for 80+ maps! ;))

Then also a quick overview / step-by-step tutorial to installing your first Application! (:

Just an idea (:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spyz88:
OK, I have tried absolutely everything. I have scoured the bowels of XDA and cannot find a resolution so please don't say UTFSE.

Ever since the 8/23 nightly on CM6 I cannot get WiFi to work properly. I tried flashing alternative kernels which work fine temporarily. After an extended time the WiFi will stop working randomly. I checked to see if the WiFi sleep policy was set incorrectly which it wasn't.

I have used IntersectRavens, WildMonks, Pershoot's and Cyanogens stock kernels. IR and WildMonks kernels works temporarily. Other people are having the same issues on Google Code. The link to that is https://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=2211

Can someone please help me out as I have been a month without WiFi on CyanogenMod and its driving me nuts?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chesh420:
A. Wrong forum

B. Have you tried the latest nightlies or CM6 Final?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spyz88:
A.) No its not the wrong forum. It is a development issue.

B.) Yes I have tried EVERY nightly and of course CM6 Final.

Thanks for the no help.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chesh420:
Do you have your SSID set to not broadcast, are you using MAC filters, what type of encryption are you using? All things that would get you an answer quicker.

PS. Also, obviously not the right forum as the moderators saw fit to move it to Q&A

PSS. Have you tried doing a full wipe and then installing the latest CM6 nightly (obviously do a nandroid first) to see if there's any issue with a clean install?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spyz88:
Yes my SSID is hidden, I use Mac filters (I checked them), and I'm using WPA2.

I also wiped before I tried every build. I had no issues with ANY other ROM's. I've flashed EVERY build since 8/23 including updates during the day and still can't get it to work. I've also formatted my SD card every different way also.

P.S Your absolutely right :P
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chesh420:
Well, with the extensive security you have set on your network, may I ask; why are you still hiding your SSID? It seems a little overkill and doesn't really solve keeping a hacker out of your network if they really wanted in as every single wifi-analyzer application can detect hidden SSID's (netstumbler, kismet, wardrive, etc). Does the problem still exist if you turn back on broadcast SSID?

PS. When you say wipe, are you doing a full wipe or just a wipe of dalvik and cache?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spyz88:
First of all I know it's easy to find the Mac addresses and spoof them blah blah. My router has been working fine and with all my other electronics. If it was a problem with the network then SenseUI and non-CM ROM's wouldn't work either. Also wipe as in everything. I've been doing this since the G1 came out.

That's why I didn't want this question in Q&A. I'm not trying to troubleshoot a problem with wiping or flashing a ROM. I attached a logcat so a DEVELOPER could look at it. It's a problem that cant be solved by wiping or flashing or my network settings. I have been at this for a month. I'm also not the only one having this issue as you can see at Google Code. A couple of people are having this issue not just me.

EDIT: MOD'S - Can you please move this topic back into Nexus One Development please? I believe they would be able to help me better over there. Thanks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chesh420:
I did see this being discussed for awhile in the CM6 final thread and I think they came to the conclusion of just broadcast your SSID for now. It's a known bug and set to Low priority on the tracker. That's about the best you can hope for at the moment. Might I also suggest that you post this issue in the official CM forums? You might get more of a response from the actual developers over there.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeromekobriger:
I see the update is failing for a lot of people on the Samsung Captivate. Mine was reflashed using Odin3, and the update failed like so many others. I reflashed using Odin3 again, tried the update, and the same exact thing happened. The update fails at 50%.

The first time around, I was rooted and lagfixed, I tried it that way, then unrooted and tried again.

The second time around, I made absolutely no changes to the phone whatsoever, except signing in to my google account, and upping the screen timeout to 30 mins.

Doubt that this information is helpful to anybody, but was hoping maybe these symptoms would point to a trend as to why so many people's Captivates can't update.

Also, how many of you that failed used an Odin3 reflash any time before it failed?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkorzuch:
I just flashed back to stock using the Odin One Click program and my updated failed at 50%. I tried 4 different time with the same result. I even reflashed a second time, did a Master Clear, and a Factory Reset. Stil no joy.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjgunn:
This morning as soon as I saw the news of the release I immediately hit the software update in the settings menu. Downloaded and just before I went to install I decided maybe it would be smart to do a rom backup with rom manager. Did that, and went ahead and then attempted to install it. It got to 100% and then said update failed, rebooted, said the same thing, update wasn't successful. However, if you checked about phone, it said it was jh7, but none of the jh7 stuff was there. The phone was rooted, sideload enabled, clockwork installed, and bloat removed, that's it. Never flashed a rom or lag fix or anything like that.

At this point I decided to try using the odin one click to stock jf6. Installed it, and tried to update again. Now, I'm getting what most people are getting, update fails very quickly at 50%, the phone reboots with no changes.

So I decided to use my clockwork backup, and restore my phone back to what it was before all this started this morning. Of course, since I remembered to do the backup AFTER downloading and postponing the update, it's sitting there waiting to go. Decided to try it and see if it acted the same as this morning, and now it's doing what it did right after the jf6 one click, gets to 50% and then fails with no effect.

How complete a wipe/restore of the phone is using rom manager? Because the update behavior on mine is different now after messing with odin than it was before, even after restoring it with rom manager.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shovelhead84:
Rooted with Sideloading on JH2. Not much else done to my phone. It has always worked well.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evil5826:
Same issue here. Flashed back to JF6 using Odin one click. Update fails at 50%.

Only thing i can think of its that, that particular fw in odin is not the original fw flashed on the phone when bought and it does some sort of checksum or some kind of check.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TMC_Sherpa:
50%, puke, and now when I click on update it tells me no firmware which I think is funny.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxyjeff:
Mine did the samething. I've used the the one click reinstaller a few times after trying out different roms. Maybe the one click installer changes something and it's blocking the update from totally completing. I hate to reinstall everything again but maybe theres a better way to do a total factory restore so we can get the update.
