Did anybody manage to set an mp3 ringtone with 2.1?

I noticed that you can now charge the phone while it is switched off. On 1.6, the phone would automatically startup when you connected the power.

Charging seems to be slower as well.

Just play around with Android 2.1. There are something I don't like.eg: the browser and message app. And I don't feel the ear piece is louder than before.

Ooo... And the face recognition don't restore. I have to manually add name again. Pretty tired though.

The color is magnificent. Still 65k but it is brighter. So clear while watching videos.

The hd video recording is good.

The ringer sound is slower than before I guess.

Any one have the same experience?

Suprised after all

Hey all. I live in Brazil and was probably one of the first here to get Eclair (tks Bin4ry). I think it is now clear why it's taken so long for SE to launch this. After all this time, there are still some lags and bugs. Nothing much really, but I wonder what it was like 2-3 mhts ago.

My perception to this point:

1) the wider status bar is ugly compared to the old one. I've installed launcher pro to get rid of it.

2) App drawer in factory home is really laggy (well documented by now). Launcher pro has solved that too.

3) Phone application, while packed with new functions, looks worse and less intuitive than before.

4) Messaging is much better looking - that was not on par with the phone before.

5) The possibility to run some Eclair apps is alone a good reason to update - Launcher Pro Plus' widgets, for instance, have now replaced a dozen things I was using for messaging, calendar, bookmarks, twitter, facebook, ...

6) I always thought live wallpapers would be a waste for their increase in CPU usage, but in the X10 there is little, if any, impact. I am impressed with that.

Everything works fine in the phone. Very few bugs (not more than with 1.6) and just a little lag in some places. Overall, a thumbs way up for SE after all. This has given a few months more of breath to my X10.

Sure,its a "Lexar Micro SDHC 8GB Class 6 + USB Adaptor" found it @Kodak shop,for 30euros. Quite cheap to be honest.

Just like this one : http://www.jump.co.za/products/prices/48795133-lexar-8gb-high-speed-micro-sd.htm

Also its darn faster than the last one.

I was playing with my x10 for 30 minutes after flashing to nordic 2.1 with a battery level of 55%, but, when i restarted my phone battery level dropped to 1%(wtf).
[XPERIA X10 General] xtrmshadow:
+1 ,

LauncherPRO solved LOADS of things,and makes the phone alot cooler to use.(No more lags in Home Screen nor Menu Screen :3 YAY , 7 Home-Screens! and darn it looks nice)

So IMO : Xperia X10 + Launcher Pro + System Info Widget + Matrix Live wallpaper + Root = Total pwnage phone,ALOT better than any HTC's or anything out there as it is : Fast!,Nice Looking!,Very intuitive!,Cool apps like Timescape/Mediascape,8Mp Uber-nice Camera.

Soo happy bought this phone and not a Desire nor anything else XD

Sure we had to wait more,but its alot more ownage now.

Anybody else having problems with getting a stable connection?

My general phone connection is piss poor. Every now and then I lose my 3G connection together with the normal phone connection. A reset helps but I don't want to reset every hour.

Bah, F*** this. Can anybody link me to a general dutch 1.6 rom so I can downgrade? This is getting ridiculous...

[XPERIA X10 General] Handy0:
If you're talking about the Tone that you hear while clicking any number then yes you can. Just go to Settings -> Sound & Display -> Audible Touch Tones.

Otherwise I have no idea what you're talking about! :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X10 General] Handy0:
I had relatively similar issue when I flashed with "World Generic". Battery was 70% and after playing for a short period and a restart I ended with 45%.

Guess it's all because the new system was still adjusting and only needed some time to give the accurate charging percentage.

Give it some time (couple of days) and you'll notice big improvement in battery usage. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] CompactDstrxion:
Flashing new firmware overwrites battery usage data so it takes a rundown or two for the correct % remaining to be reported.

Very laggy

Greetings everyone,

Just installed the anticipated 2.1 update and i am surprised.

My phone its laggy as hell , i never saw so much lag!

I remove the battery for 30 secs but still laggy. Maybe its the Default home that causing the lag ? I will install adw and i will revert.

If anyone have the same issues please post it here

It took a bit of faffing around though, the one click rooter gets into a loop over and over, you need to untick USB debug, plug in the cable, unplug, re-tick USB debug, start the one click rooter, and then you may need to untick/retick USB debug while it's running if it looks like it's frozen for more than 5 mins.

I just installed 2.1 on my phone and it's just great!

I had some serious lag issues when I turned on the phone but it looks like MediaScape was adding my 7GB music collection from the Memory Card to it's library. After one reboot everything is just fine and FAST!

Note: If you are using class 4 or lower Memory cards you might have some lag issues. Fortunately my one is Class 6 and I don't have any problems with it so far.

The market works excellent!

On a side note, I think everything looks more smooth now. As for the gradients etc. they look like it's 16bit ... or maybe it's just me.

Love Angry Birds and the live wallpapers lol.

i just updated to 2.1.

seems my phone a lil bit laggy..

kindda unhappy with this lagg.

any solutions guys?
[XPERIA X10 General] Puck24:
My experience with the battery still isn't conclusive. Usually it lasted 2 - 2,5 days (I turned it off for 8-ish hours when I was sleeping).

Still, it lasts around 18 hours for now. But that's cause I'm fiddling with it more these last 2 days.

And, I think the phone has issues with the 5 screens. I populated one with 14 widgets, one with one, one with 5, one with 8 and one with 4, and it's lagging a little.

I know it's maybe a lot of widgets, but what's the use of 5 screens if they'll be empty.

Ideas on how to get rid of the lag?
[XPERIA X10 General] Puck24:
Well, the apps I use frequently are on the ignore list (including Backup & restore). I really don't need Face Recognition to run continuously since I don't even use it when I take pictures
[XPERIA X10 General] metcard:
The phone sleeps like a baby now. As soon as you turn the screen off it goes straight to sleep. Looking at the battery info; Time spent not sleeping and Screen on are almost always the same.

Haptic feedback on the dialler is annoying.

Timesccape & Mediascape are as useless as ever, and Sony Ericsson's Home is horrendous at best - Luckily all are easily fixed/avoided.

Apart from the auto brightness bug, the update has been very solid. You can fix the auto brightness bug by marking the light sensor with a black marker btw. :p
[XPERIA X10 General] ratheen:
just uncheck and check the usb debug mode on the phone when in the loop. that does the trick
[XPERIA X10 General] gunawan-1:
Yeah. me too. And what is hapti feedback anyway?
[XPERIA X10 General] fast rock:
The only different that I've noticed if Haptic feedback was unchecking, is that if you press and hold on the screen to add a widget the phone doesn't vibrate ..
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
I think it has something to do with widgets that have scrolling text

ie the news and weather widget, or the engadget widget

When I removed these the lag was gone.. how weird

I've found when trying to write a new sms, I click "add recipient" and I get email addresses showing up on the list that aren't from my contacts and even contacts are listed with each email/phonenumber. They're just people I've emailed before but not added. How do i get it to be like in 1.6 where you only see your contacts and then click into them to choose email/number.

It's pretty annoying as it makes the list longer and fills it with emails i'll rarely ever use again.

Strange SMS Conversation Behaviour

If I have an SMS conversation open it updates properly as long as the screen doesn't go to sleep. The moment the screen sleeps, the new messages don't update the conversation, if you open the notification a new conversation opens, but the old one stays open.

Not owning X10 myself (my father does) but owning a Moto Milestone 2.1 and playing a lot with my girlfriend's Samsung i5700 2.1 too i can sincerely say that the NEW X10 with 2.1 is the best Android among them.

Sony Ericsson worked hard on this update and it really shows.

Not to mention native Romanian language witch the other two phones know nothing about..

SMS Issue

I have also noticed that but no, it's the way it handles conversations. Once the screen sleeps it doesn't update the conversation, so when you receive a message you get a notification in the bar at the top.
