[Vibrant General] db3:
that was my experience using kies too (whether 1.5.1 or 1.5.3). since then, i've used odin (v1.3) about 6 times (not a lot, i know) with all successes. don't let it scare you.

to get into download mode just do the following.

1) pull battery then put it back in so the phone is completely off

2) disconnect usb from phone (but leave it connected to pc)

3) while holding down volume up and down buttons together, insert usb cable

that should take you straight to download mode.

then load up odin (check the bible for flash instructions -- pretty simple though). what i did was flash to JFD, then flashed to JI5. worked like a charm.

honestly, kies was a nightmare to get working and once it did, it messed up. odin has been simple and painless. one note, after flashing with odin, first boot may be slow. when i flashed JI6 OTA over JI6 leaked, it took about 10 minutes, at least, to boot.

good luck!
[Vibrant General] MRIMan:
I know it's not helping you guys: but my Kies update (newest release) was smooth sailings after I did the registry fix.

I did none of the backups suggested (I tried so many times before so they were already done this time)

Let me know if you want details about my config.
[Vibrant General] nateball:
Thanks for all the suggestions everyone, but I did make judicious use of the search button and google before I took it back to the store. I tried every single combination of button presses for every single mode, from every single forums posts I could find. No luck at all. The T-mob guys also had no luck, and it just so happened that a Samsung rep stopped by to see how the Vibrant was being received by the public and he couldn't get any recovery mode to work either. (He had no idea about when Froyo might be out though..... just in case you were wondering) Anyhow, I'm pretty sure that I for one believe in the myth of the hardware locked Vibrants.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] blognc:
A question for my fellow Rhodium owners: What phone do you plan on (with the information on hand) going to next?

I'm on AT&T, and won't switch for many legacy reasons. I feel like there's no good options at this time. If I want to stay Windows Mobile, I either lose HTC or the keyboard, neither of which seems like an upgrade to me. If I go Android, the only good keyboard HTC phone is the Desire Z, and AT&T hasn't announced it yet. I want to stick with HTC on AT&T, but it looks like if I need a keyboard, it's LG WinPho7, or Samsung Android. Are there any better options? What are the rest of you, devotees of the amazing tilt keyboard form factor, planning on doing with this next generation of phones?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] redpoint73:
MS is unveiling Windows Phone 7 today, and a whole slew of phones have been announced for ATT, Sprint, and T-Mob. Many of the handsets will be available in the next couple months. WP7 is still an unknown. But MS has dumped lots of $$$ and time into its development. It remains to be seen if the new OS can compete with iOS4 and Android, but its worth considering.

Phonedog says the phones have appeared on ATT's website, but I can't find them. The HTC offering from ATT seems like an odd form factor, with a slide-out speaker instead of a keyboard. Multi-media is nice, but it doesn't trump the functionality of the keyboard, for me.

http://www.phonedog.com/2010/10/11/htc-surround-samsung-focus-lg-quantum-appear-on-at-t-s-site/

Sprint may have gotten the best successor to the TP2, in the form of the 7 Pro. Considering the name, this may be the "real" successor to the Touch Pro line. Looks like it even includes the tilt screen, and the 5th row of keys for the numbers; features which are both missing from HTC's recent keyboard-toting Android options (Desire Z and the T-Mobile G2).

http://www.phonedog.com/2010/10/11/htc-announces-five-windows-phone-7-devices-including-7-pro-for-sprint/

Assuming WP7 is up to the hype, we can hope and pray a version of the 7 Pro will come to ATT. But I'll bet we are in for a wait, if we get it at all. I'm in the same boat, as I am on ATT and don't plan to switch anytime soon.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] blognc:
Yeah, the HTC Surround, with the slide out speaker, seems useless. The sliding form-factor makes the phone really thick compared with a standard touch phone, and without a keyboard, there's not enough of a trade-off.

Thank you for posting the link to the 7 Pro, which seems like the best phone I've seen all year, and definitely the perfect successor to the Touch Pro 2. Given the Tilt's history with AT&T, I'm going nuts here that AT&T isn't getting it, at least not yet. Please, HTC, promise me it's coming!

I'm going to have to upgrade in the next six months if I don't hear about a "coming soon" keyboard phone that's going to make it work waiting a little longer, so somebody better start leaking info...

This phone has me salivating. I was ready to jump ship to Android, but if this comes to AT&T, I think I can give Microsoft another 2 years easy.

7 Pro

Look at that 7 Pro...

My goodness...thats my next. Without a doubt, although they say it's only coming to Sprint in the US, hopefully they will make an unlocked/gsm version. I'm on Tmo and I've never had 3G since before the TP2 I have the TyTn2. I don't think HTC would be that ignorant as to not release the 7 Pro on a GSM carrier in the US, It would make absolutely no sense.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] blognc:
I agree. I can't find any sales figures, but the Touch Pro 2 occupies a very important business professional niche in the market, and HTC would be ill-advised to abandon it. Expecially when they've already got an amazing design, it wouldn't make sense to limit yourself just to Sprint. After all, Sprint exclusives aren't exactly tearing up the market.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sh4d0w86:
htc 7 pro. looks niice.

linky.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] SC07 TP2:
Nothing I've seen so far has the same 5 row killer hardware keyboard as the TP2 so far (including the Desire-Z). It really is unsurpassed. At the same time, capacitive screens, touchscreen keyboards and the predictive algorithms behind them have got so much better than when the TP2 was designed, and we have Swype as well.

Based on this fact, it isn't necessarily a compromise to move away from a hardware keyboard nowadays. It depends on what you find important on your phone. I like photography and browsing on a large display and it'll be great to have a decent camera on me wherever I go. My next phone will probably be the Motorola XT720 Milestone as a result.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lombardo8:
Touch pro 7 looks good but why the hell did they give it only a 3.6' screen? With the size of the phone they could have easily stretched the screen size to 4' or made it 3.7' at least, so it doesnt look like a downgrade for us TP2 owners. If that screen was 4', I would have been tempted to go for a WP7 phone but for now I still want to go 'De Android Way'

Right now, I have lost my interest in the Desire Z cos of the delays issues we have here in Europe. I would have gone for the Samsung Epic but we are not getting here so for now I will be putting off my next phone purchase for about 8 months or so, say June 2011.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ATLDON:
Right now I am not sure what my next phone will be. I already have a HD2 along with my TP2 and Touch HD. I prefer WM but I rather wait on WM7 until one of our Great Chefs/Developers port it for the HD2 so I can evaluate the OS
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] erwinpiero:
it should be HTC 7 Pro
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] schumifer1:
My two bits.

I knew wm phones before and had decided never to make the same mistake of having one as my main phone again. The only thing that changed that was the full qwerty 5 row keyboard.

I will only change to a much better processor, and i repeat MUCH better, no smaller screen, larger battery (don't care if the phone gets bigger) and multi touch screen.

Again much much better processor
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] potna:
i went from a tilt 2 to htc evo. i love my evo but i miss my tilting screen and keyboard dearly. it would be more forgivable if the evo supported blue tooth hid keyboard support but stock rom does not and the only ROM that does, which is very popular, is a ROM that i don't like, aka cm6.

i poked around here tonight to see exactly what the op was after and i don't think we have anything in the future like some of want.

another thing is that i have pleged that i will not have another wm phone, me and my family stuck with wm since 8125 and we now have the same out look as m$ when it comes to wm. this is the only reason for stipulating aos.

here is my dream phone

aos

4.3 led capcitive

slide/ tilting keyboard

2 cameras

1 ghz plus cpu

dedicated gcpu

1GBram

16GB internal

sd external

bright leds on back for flash and light

it needs to stay thin and have good sound and battery life, lol

plus all the other things we have come to expect from a smart phone.

price: less than $500

basically, touch pro + evo + some upgrades.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Jason85:
Im also wondering what my next phone will be. Im afraid to switch to android for fear its too 'dumbed down' compared to what Im used to, but it appears theres enough android hacking going on that it will probably be fine. I use outlook sync and know that can be a pita with android.

Im also afraid WP7 may be too dumbed down as well. No 3rd party multitasking and cut and paste? what are they thinking?

Anyway, love the looks of the 7 pro, but am I reading it correctly that it doesnt have a microSD slot? that cant be right
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vampireincubi:
Sounds like my dream phone... and u know its possible, but will they make it?? And for all the carriers like the galaxy did... of course not, they feel the need to keep us asking for more
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Bully Dawg:
My next phone will be the VzW version of the EVO, to come out soon.

I'll keep my TP2 till she dies ... but after a (very) short memorial service/wake, I'll get the EVO. Cool like the TP2, but makes the iPhoneys jealous!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] potna:
Oh and my dream phone should be water proof, lol
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] BeEazy10:
well i always like phone that you can use with one hand.. hint hint t-mobile shadow 1, the touch pro2 was a nice switch but the t-mobile shadow had some advantage over it with it compact qwerty key pad, to sum it up the dell venue might be my next purchase... looking at the touch pro 7 spec it looks like Microsoft hint the jack pot using the first gen of snapdragon processor to power these deceive without having to use the second or third line up of snapdragon processor.

with that being said i feel like there not going to pull an iphone on me.... dell venue S, dell venue 2 SS, dell venue's SS 2.5, dell venue 3G, dell venu.... well u get the point

does anybody know if the dell ven going to support nextflic
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fortunz:
The 7 Pro is amazing hardware, but the OS kills it. I just hope HTC brings the form factor to Android.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Jackos:
HTC 7 Pro is underpowered... Just like TP2.

I'll stay with my Rhodium for another year. No need for a change, what does W7 better then WM6.5? I love my business OS. W7 is just another Iphonish entertainment focused crap.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fortunz:
It has a 1ghz, and I assume it's snapdragon. Notwithstanding there are some better processors now, I seriously doubt the bang for buck ratio is the same between the 7 Pro's and today's absolute best as it was between the old 528mhz TP2 dinosaur and the snapdragon.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Jackos:
It has got only 448 MB RAM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] XERO_Racer:
was gonna wait on the Desire HD if itll come to AT&T but i highly doubt it and i found out it has terrible battery life, so i decided to go with the Xperia X10 and with the 2.1 update im good for a year until the soo called "Motorola Olympus" hits AT&T next year with the Tegra 2 chip

Hi

I need advise wich bluethoot set to use.

I will have a mono set, only on one side of head :-)

Most important

1) works with X10 mini Pro, the person i talk to hear me, and i hear her

2) Fitting to ear, preferably not a thin plastic bow/clamp (ref HTC headset)

thats it. I fitting that let's me work with both hands on a building site.

I would like to get comment from people who have X10 and a working headset.

Thanks in advance!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pulpoff:
Unfortunately X10 does not support bluetooth headsets.

I've tried 3-4 devices, all have weird noise and problems during calls..

I have spoken to Swisscom about it, they blame sony support and firmware, they offered me refund.

So far the only recommendation on this - give up on X10 with bluetooth, or get another phone.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
o.k.. after having the MW600 for a few weeks now.. I have to say I love it!! :D

The battery seems to last ages!! I use it almost every day for at least a couple of hours for listening to Music when I am out and about, I also use it to stream Music from my Ubuntu laptop to my stereo (for hours at a time) and also skype calls from Ubuntu and I am amazed at how long the battery lasts. (at least 10 hours of Music.. perhaps more.. seems like I hardly ever have to charge it!!)

Call quality is great too.. :)

pity about the song id and caller id not showing up with the X10mini but I don't really miss it too much. (and thats a fault of the phone not the headset)

I have also tried it with decent full Hifi headphones and it sounds really sweet.

My only real gripe is the volume control is a bit stupid (I tend to have my mini in my Jacket pocket and control the volume from there instead (its winter now so my hands are always in my jacket pocket anyway..) and with gloves on the phone control is the only way to go.

anyway Highly recomended if your in the market for a good stereo BT headset :)

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Blåburk:
I have not used a Mono BT headset with mine X10 Mini

But three BT Stereo headset.

Excel PSHC122 (Actually a noname that been branded by a chain)

Samsung SBH650 (Most probably designed with Samsung phones in mind)

I-tech S35 (Low cost)

All three works with the X10 Mini (and hence also with the Pro)

Just having problem with the Samsung one which Pause/play-button won't work with the XY-(video)player from Android Market.

All three does work flawless for phonecalls

I guess just look for BT mono/stereo headset that suits you and be sure it will work with your X10 Mini Pro
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ppirate:
Hello, Is the song/caller id bug fixed in the latest version?

What do you mean with volume control is stupid? I cycle a lot and, I find it important that the volume control and next song is easy to reach..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
Nope, SE can't seem to get their TrackID and Caller ID working in Android (Even with the latest firmware.. still nice to know when I get a real phone.. HTC, Samsung or Motorola I will get those features :p )

and what I mean about the volume control is that its a touch control.. not a physical button or knob.. so can't be operated through gloves but its o.k once you are used to it.

I do find if the controller is buried under a jacket the forward and back buttons can be pushed by accident (Its only really annoying if your listening to an audiobook and it accidently flicks you forward a chapter) :rolleyes:, its just a matter of clipping it somewhere where it can't get bumped/crushed, I clip it onto the strap of my bag when I am cycling or walking

Still really happy with the battery life and the audio quality, and the fact I can use my big ass headphones to keep my ears warm in winter :D

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ppirate:
Ok, I'm using the mw600 now. I'm pretty content with it. It's easy to use, no more hassle with the cords. I clip it to my t-shirt or shirt. Still no track/caller display. A pity, but honest, I would not look to it anyway.

One small, but difficult thing.. Sometimes, when on a long trip, I would like to make voice recordings. Would it be possible, say, with an android application that notices when I press the call button on the mw600, and then starts recording. Possible saving date/hour/location too?

I tried searching for "android recording bleutooth", and while some apps support the recording using a bleutooth headset, one still has to use the gsm to start and stop recording. It would be important not to have to take gsm, it should be safely in the backpack.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
Cool idea..

Not sure how you would go about disabling the voice dial (or hijacking it) I am sure a good DEV would be able to figure something out.. (it would work for normal wired headsets too.. if they could figure out a way to do it.. so would be quite a popular app)

MW 600

I also use the SE MW600. I can confirm that it's a really nice piece of electronics. I'm using it with Winamp for Android, too. This third-party-app reacts to the MW-600's buttons, but only if you enable that in Winamp's settings.

Last week, I had to buy a new MW-600. I had to realize that it does not like too much water :mad:

There is another thing I like with this phone: You can exchange the earphones. I specially got a pair with clamps over the ears, so that they won't fall off when jogging.

---------- Post added at 03:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:30 PM ----------

I can confirm, that the MW-600 shows the phone number of the caller (but not his name).

I can also confirm, that Mini Pro does not have a suitable implementation of the AVRCP bluetooth profile. TrackID needs version 1.3 and our Mini Pro has 1.0 (as far as I know).

Since someone shortly submitted a fix for this in the cyanogen team, I'm hoping that the custom ROMs based on Cyanogen will shortly bring me TrackID.

2. Clear cache and user data

3 load fresh evo.

4. reboot

5. update pri and prl.

6. test text messages and phone number having issues. Still having problems sending multiple texts and keeping signal during a call.

8 Load up factory 3.26 sense rom to test.

9. after testing and working properly I go to recovery and i get a phone with a red triangle!.
