[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bazzatron:
Holy **** you're right, out of curiosity I removed my rubbery screen protector that that Canadian company was giving away for free and after looking closely i could see the factory screen protector, managed to peel the corner up with my fingernail. Its glued to the screen quite well and the film is very very tough. Might get another one of those rubbery-apply with water type protectors to put back on, as I liked the feel and the protection they provided.

P.S. I needed to breath some hot air onto the screen and clean it with a lint free cloth to get that slightly sticky coating off, but now it looks and feels awesome.

Do not use the stealthguards screen protector. It's rubbery garbage. I replaced the stock screen protector with an ebay mirror finish protector and there is no noticeable difference from the stock one. I got 10 of these mirror screen protectors for 3.99 US. great deal, and it looks beautiful, much better than clear. Alot of glare though, but that doesn't bother me,

whoa! mine just removed stock screen protector 2 weeks ago and it feels like have more sensitivity. I think that the screen is not easy to scratch so no problem for me
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moacyrfilho:
Sony Ericsson X10 always comes with 2 screen protectors, 1 already on the phone (between the "pre-use" plastic and the screen itself) and another piece packed together with the accessories). If your phone didn't come with this "extra" screen protector, probably it was removed from the box. I think that the screen protector is really good, the problem is with this crappy sensor used by SE in X10s. But as I read in another thread, we should be happy to be SonyEricsson's Android "beta testers", because every first version of a product (by that, they mean the X10 series) is supposed to be a disappointment. I personally don't agree with that, but it seems that SonyEricsson decided to abandon X10 series development and produced new hardware and software as a solution to all the problems that came along with x10 (even when part-time developers get better results just by DEVELOPING new software on their "old" hardware).

Pity.

waiting for a conclusive answer

i have missed many important business calls because of the poor touchscreen response.

some numbers are not shown in caller ID so i couldnt even return the call.

thinking of spending upto $20-30 on an expensive japanese screen protector if it helps the performance

factory screen protector is poor quality.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DangerPanda:
Well,

I finally decided to get a new screen protector.

I got one of the cheap Anti-glare ones off ebay.

Before putting on the new one, I did try to use the screen without a protector.

I didn't feel too much difference, maybe it's cuz when I just removed the old one it feels a bit dry and sticky.

However,

After I put on the Anti-glare screen protector, I felt some difference.

Before, it was harder to do swipes on the screen, sometimes my finger would get kinda stuck and the swipe gesture would be interrupted. But after I put on the anti-glare protector, the matte feeling of the screen really improves the comfortableness of touching the screen. And I can like "glide" easily.

The problem with moist fingertips is also fixed with the matte protector, the problem no longer exists now.

Overall Im satisfied with the new protector, although the screen is a bit pixelated, but it feels MUCH better to the fingers.

So,

If you aren't satisfied with the screen, I would suggest you to buy an alternative screen protector.

Maybe not necessarily the anti-glare ones, but buy one that feels good to the hands.

It REALLY helps the touch screen experience.

PS: Sorry I have a fever so im just randomly throwing all my ideas together lol

it works fine wid my stock screen protector....!!!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] booyaga:
Its pure Logic that its more responsive without anyting covering it...

Anyhow, i removed every protector, and wiped with Alcohol, Was smooth/nice as hell, but for safety(the reason they are invented) i added a Thin and cheap ebay protector, still smoother than stock one:)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flo95:
Atm I have the stock screen protector on it, screen sensitivity is good for me. But the protector has some little, very fine scratches (you can only see them when the screen is off and totally clean).

Is the screen without the protector easy scratchable or is it scratch resistant?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imir:
Used the phone for a couple of months with no protector on and didn't have any scratches at all. I did however put a protector later on purely due to the screen being over sensitive and frustrating to use without one.

If you want to remove the stock protector, go for it, you will either love or hate the screen being so sensitive afterward. I recommend having an extra screen protector in case you won't like the screen without one.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sopdogg:
Been one week since removing the screen protector. Still no scratches. I think the responsiveness is better without it and the screen just looks better without all those little scratches everywhere. It's all opinion though, but I agree, get another screen protector just in case you don't like how it feels after removal.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiwey:
ok i'm trying to change a few things in the notification bar...right now specifically the back, plain white just ignores me. well i tried the simplest way i could think of:

-copy framework-res.apk to my computer

-copy new image into file (and rename)

-put on SD card

-overwrite original using rootexplorer

unfortunately i failed miserably because it would go to the 'sony ericsson' boot screen and freeze. i've already flashed back my firmware. and before i try again on my own i was wondering if anyone already knows how to do this so i can skip the trial and error phase. hopefully if someone can help me i can figure out how to add quick settings to the task bar as well.

P.S. if it helps i'm running world generic 2.1

Your problem is you're not allowed to copy and paste it!

You have to put it somewhere on your SDcard, best: root

Also, any image with a .9.png extension needs to be patched with draw9patch.bat in the adb "tools" folder.

There are several themes already in the themes & apps section if you just want a quick change...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PoTi_96:
Hmm... i've never used it...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AyDee:
Really? So I'm doing extra steps? Is that right? I thought it was necessary after editing a .9.png to re-patch to give them "stretching" properties. So maybe PS writes to .9.png if you just merge visible layers and save or something?

Draw9patch does optimize the pngs (MUCH smaller w/no quality loss) and you get a preview of how they will look when stretched/transformed but I'd skip the extra steps if I don't need to do them!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AyDee:
*Bump* for clarity here...

I've read other places that you have to use draw9patch on .9.pngs but PoTi_96 says he's never used it and he made a nice, working theme for 2.1

Are the other threads I've read wrong?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PoTi_96:
thanks!

no they are NOT wrong!

today i've noticed that SOME .9.png really need the 9batch...

but NOT ALL!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AyDee:
Check out _calum_'s post HERE

It's more complicated than I thought but at least we have our answer. :p

I also just make some .9.pngs "full size" (ie: make statusbar_background.9.png 480x38 instead of 26x38) so they will not be stretched. (Like you suggested for status_bar_background.png to prevent it from tiling.) Then patch per the post I linked to.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wombat2k:
TL;DR - OTA hosed my phone and T-mobile just told me the G2 is on back order and they can't tell me when it might be available. Anyone else?

So the OTA (manually applied) caused my G2 to vibrate every 8 seconds with intermittent extended vibrations. I've seen several other reports of this on this forum. I called T-mobile support on 3 Nov and 2nd level tech support processed an equipment replacement. I opted for the $19.99 expedited 3 business day shipping. It wasn't here today so I called. They told me that the phone was on back order and there is no estimate on availability. They waived the expedited delivery fee.

However, the app runs in the background and drains quite a bit of battery power.

It's very useful, so I don't want to remove it... But I don't think I can deal with the battery drain.
[Vibrant General] blink55184:
Yes, it is very useful, and yes, it does startup in the background and run.

I kill it with each phone reboot (settings, apps, running services, stop) and after each use.
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
That's too much work, IMO (this isn't the only app that starts up and commences it's batter drain agenda).

Utilizing C2DM and not having the application run in the background would be the obvious best solution, because then it would only start up when you got a Tango Call in (or initiated one) and then shut down until it is told to do so.

This is part of the issue with multi-tasking.

It's not only about running multiple applications concurrently, but when everyone thinks their app needs to run as a service, it doesn't really serve to enhance the usability of the device.
