Hsdpa is just a faster version of 3g. I think all that's changed is that 1.6 just always reported "3g" whereas now 2.1 tells you when it's getting "H" bandwidth

So, from slowest to fastest it's:

G: GPRS : ~40k/s

E: EDGE : ~200k/s

3G: UTMS : ~384k/s

H: HSDPA : Faster! ( meg/s depending on your network)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] aplqq:
Anyways, if in your country you need to use american's 3g bands, then you cant connect to 3g with a e10i firmware. You will need to wait for a 2.1 e10a firm to recover 3g bands.

Im in the same situation :P
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] rikirix:
uhm.....as far as i have hsdpa i think i'll stuck on 10i; i'm able to make perfect calls with sip client even with edge so i guess i'm not going into reflash and reinstall all my apps....:)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
Which Sip/voip app do you use? I can't decide between Sipdroid and 3CX.. :confused:
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] rikirix:
i tested both but didn't like sipdroid and 3cx crashes quite often. Now i'm using csipsimple and i think it's the best and most responsive.

at present no windows phones have a front facing camera. hopefully they will some time next year.

After installing wifi calling I noticed a serious decline in my battery life. As in, unplug phone at 8am, battery dead by 2pm. Used system panel to find out wifi calling uses 30% of the cpu even if you've neve opened it! !

I used titanium backup to freeze the app and that fixed my battery life.

Problem is, now I see rom builders including the app in their roms. I installed Team Whiskey's froyo rom and there it is, wifi calling taking all my battery life. Problem this time is I can't freeze the app! Can't even kill it. If you are a rom maintainer, please please please stop including this app! It is only marginly interesting, and it destroys our batteries :(
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disturkis4u:
i use system panel and i also noticed it was constantly in the foreground n no way to end it
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] motorjonny:
Since my phone has been unplugged on obsidian froyo, I haven't sent a text or call, wifi calling is connected, not a percent of the battery was used by this app according to the system battery use...

On my mytouch 4g the wifi calling is what gave me such better battery life...

Not sure what's wrong with yours but its not inherently a bad app at all
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freekyfrogy:
I haven't had it long enough to do any testing, but if you think about it wifi calling disables the cell radios altogether so wouldn't that help the battery life?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobilebone:
WiFi uses more battery than cell radios.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregc2009:
It is the #1 power drainer on my Macnut install. I froze it in Titanium Backup to "fix" the issue.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangxi:
False. Using a strong Wi-Fi signal when available will save you tons of battery over the regular cell. The probably with the Wi-Fi app is that it is always running and uses TONS of CPU. I'm talking upwards of 30% at a time.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timekillerj:
I'm not referring to using the wifi calling. I do not have it enabled - wifi is turned off altogether, but wifi calling app is chewing through the cpu, killing the battery.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bugdog:
I'm not having this problem using Obsidian. It's likely not the app itself - may depend on the ROM you're using.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Etrnaly:
I noticed it taking up 30% of my CPU even when I wasn't using it. There doesn't seem to be a way to disable it either. So, I uninstalled it for now.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ceroglu:
I am not having battery problem either, in fact I believe it is helping to get better battery life. Although, I am thinking the wifi calling is not very mature yet. I tried it out few times, and I had problem of people not hearing me well on the other side while they sounded great on my side. Is anybody else having this problem?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregc2009:
I started off with Obsidian and noticed it was the top power drainer then too.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calcvictim:
I don't mean to hijack, but does wifi calling use minutes...if so what's the point unless you have poor coverage at home?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kolyan:
it does use minutes. point is if you dont have cell coverage, you can use wifi for calls instead.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VICosPhi:
Same here, people can not hear everything I say... It seems you need to be closer to Mic and speak loud for this to work well.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] egrims:
+1

At work I have little to no coverage in our labs. Wifi calling is a savior.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timekillerj:
As I said in my original post, I am using obsidian. Have you actually checked using system panel that the app is no chewing cpu cycles ?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wildklymr:
If you want to remove it then remove it. I dont think anyone is stopping you. If you dont know how, read the sticky in general.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gomjabar:
Wifi calling might also mean free calling back home internationally. At least thats how uma was on my bb8900. Im on obsidian and battery life is fine.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ram130:
OP you are not crazy..here is my post about the issue in another 2.2 rom:

Guys the problem is that Wifi calling is using CPU when it's disabled and wifi is OFF.. Not while using the thing. Thats something different from what we are talking about.

Sometimes a reboot fixes it but it acts up again after a few mins and use even more cpu.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cigar3tte:
Which app is that? And I'm assuming you're running AOSP ish 1.0?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ram130:
System Panel and yes.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ram130:
I guess the only solution is to freeze it then..o well ..alot of 2.2 roms gonna have bad battery ..on and off..if this is ignored.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kolyan:
by the way, correct me if i am wrong, but i think wifi calling is also very useful when you are outside of the country. then you can say make calls between USA and France with no roaming charges on wifi network.

[Windows Phone 7 General] scoob101:
I`ve been trying to get Onenote to sync with hotmail, with no luck. i go into the office hub, go to onenote, click on "all" and then hit "refresh" to sync. I get the following error message

"this notebook has either been renamed or deleted from the server. If this notebook has been renamed, do one of the following: change ntoe notebook name back to what it was, or delete this notebook from your phone and reopen it"

I can`t delete the notebook - the only one on my phone is called "personal (web)" and I`m not allowed to delete it, phone says it cnnot delete as its the one where default notes go.

I`ve tried creating a new onenote file on the web, but that doesn`t seem to help either.

Can anyone help??
[Windows Phone 7 General] hboos:
one of the major deciding factors for WP7 was the Office integration, in particular Onenote.

I found that syncing isn't as easy as it should be.

BUt this guy managed to sort it out

here

hope it helps
[Windows Phone 7 General] scoob101:
Very helpful link. Thanks!

I have now fixed the sync problem by recreating the missing notebook "Personal (Web)" on my skydrive in the correct folder.

However, there are 2 niggles

1) The section names in the notebook will not sync. On skydrive the section name is "Phone" and on the phone its "untitled Section" - a manual refresh doesnt change this.

2) New pages created on the phone will not automatically sync to skydrive when saved. I have to manually force a sync by doing a refresh in the "pages" secion on the phone. I have Automatic Syncronisation switched on in Onenote settings.

New pages created on skydrive in the same notebook sync automatically to the phone without having to force a sync.

Are you getting the asame behaviour?
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
This is obviously operator error.

Recreate a notebook with the same name as the one you weren't supposed to delete on SkyDrive.

Same thing would happen if you were syncing to skydrive from desktop onenote.
[Windows Phone 7 General] scoob101:
Why even bother to send a reply if you are going to be so arrogant and unhelpful? read Hboos` reply to give you a lesson on how to be genuinely helpful. If you can`t bother to reply properly, dont bother replying at all.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
I did give the solution. Read again, ingrate.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mkuehn:
Sorry, but I think I missed the answer also. I tried to sync my OneNote Mobile with skydrive for to have an opportunity to sync with my pc. Unfortunately OneNote 2010 on my pc and my windows mobile had different opinions where to find the Personal (Web). And so I deleted all the folders in skydrive and was going to start again. But now I have a folder on the phone I cannot delete and I cannot have another one as it seems. I recreate the folder structure on skydrive and build a new personal (web), but my phone does not believe that this one exists.
[Windows Phone 7 General] hboos:
I had this problem too and it was a little weird way that sorted it out but I'll try to remember

I don't have my Omnia 7 temporarily but try this out.

1. Go to OneNote on your computer and create a new notebook to sync to "My Documents" on SkyDrive.

2. Name it Personal (Web)

3. Create a few random notes and pages on it.

4. Try to sync your phone now.

5. Hopefully it has created a new note called "Unfiled" or something and the Personal Web should work now

6. Set Personal Web as your default

7. Delete Unfiled..

Does that work?

As I said earlier, I don't have the OMnia 7 with me so the instructions might be a load of tosh

Let me know!
[Windows Phone 7 General] mkuehn:
notebook lost on skydrive

Unfortunately it did not work. I build that new notebook on skydrive, but the phone still cannot see it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] hboos:
maybe scoob will help you.

if not, my omnia 7 is coming back on fri so will help you then

did you make the notebook from your desktop Onenote program?

you can try sync a random notebook as in the link before and then set that as default on your phone.

then you should be able to delete the PErsonal (web) one from your phone.

try that!
[Windows Phone 7 General] mkuehn:
I just tried that and it worked. I created another notebook from my pc on skydrive, connected on the phone via browser, set it as default and deleted the personal (web).

Thanks for your help, thought I get crazy because I just had organized everything on my new phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] zevrosenthal:
Can't Sync OneNote Skydrive & Windows Phone 7

I didn't see this thread beforehand and deleted the Personal (Web) notebook from my SkyDrive to start and now I can't get past the error when I try to Sync my windows phone with the SkyDrive as I only have the one notebook - Personal (Web) - on my phone and don't have anything else to make the default. Any ideas on how to fix?

I can't seem to figure out if you can create a new notebook on the phone then set that as the default.

Any assistance wouldl be much appreciated.
[Windows Phone 7 General] hboos:
it kinda helps if you actually read the thread too.. it's all been solved

just check the post above yours.
[Windows Phone 7 General] hboos:
Tell you what, i'll recreate the error and then put up the instructions in a more clear and concise manner.
[Windows Phone 7 General] zevrosenthal:
That would be very much appreciated! Bill
[Windows Phone 7 General] gbbsoft:
My solution:

- delete everything notebooks (what you can) on phone

- start IE on phone

- go to skydrive.live.com -> My documents

- try open (from IE) notebooks on skydrive

this causes add a skydrive notebooks to phone OneNote notebooks

:)
[Windows Phone 7 General] hboos:
Ok

If you have accidentally deleted the Personal (WEB) notebook from Skydrive and are encountering the "CAN'T FIND NOTEBOOK" error when trying to delete or sync it from your phone...

Here are the instructions

1. Ensure that your PHONE browser is set to view the mobile version of websites (found in settings)

2. Ensure that your phone is set to sync automatically Settings/applications/office/onenote

3. On your PC, go to your skydrive and create a new Notebook...call it "Personal" and rename the Section "Unfiled notes"

4. on your PHONE, go to office.live.com and login and click on your new notebook and then click on the icon

5. your PHONE will now automatically sync with the new notebook

6. on your screen you should see the notebooks on your PHONE. One of the pages of your notebook will have a picture of 3 pages fanned out...that Page is your default one.

7. click and hold the "Unfiled Notes" in the new Personal notebook you just downloaded

8. select "set as default"

9. now you can delete the PERSONAL (WEB) notebook from your phone by pressing the trash can icon.
[Windows Phone 7 General] zevrosenthal:
Worked perfectly! Now why couldn't a 1+ hour phone call with MS support or the multitude of support pages they have for winphone 7 not post the 4 simple steps! THANK YOU!
[Windows Phone 7 General] HCEJohn:
The sync with One Note on the Windows Phone 7 is a bit confusing but here is your solution.

1) Create a One Note Notebook on your Windows Live Account.

2) Under Properties of the FOLDER containing the One Note Notebook on your Windows Live Account, click of the Share option and a drop down menu will appear to "get a link".

3) Copy the goofy long link that Microsoft Live give you and email to yourself to be received on your phone.

4) Open up your email and your One Note will now show up on the phone.

5) If that doesn't work, then simply sign onto Internet Explorer using your Windows 7 Phone and sign on to Windows Live Account. Browse to your One Note Notebook using your WP7 phone and click Open in One Note and the Notebook will then open up in One Note.

I had the same problem and the above worked for me. I think I skipped step 3 and 4 above and went direct to step 5.

This will work. Just give it a try.
[Windows Phone 7 General] zevrosenthal:
Sync One-note

Thanks - the trick was opening a onenote notebook in the phone browser which kicked it to the built-in onenote and solved the problem.

As noted above, why couldn't MS just say that on one of my numerous calls or document it?

Easy fix that was hard to find.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Pookwar:
Thank so much for all your support, this solution work perfectly, however, I still got some troubles when start apply these ways, here is some trick I found out to solve this issue:

Prepare:

Change the browser setting in Windows phone to Mobile Version (not Desktop Version), if not, it would not connect to mobile OneNote

To Fix:

1. You can create a new notebook directly from the website of skydrive.live.com with any name you want

2. Go to skydrive.live.com on your windows phone 7 browser (Mobile version activated)

3. Select the Notebook you've just created

4. Select the Section in the Notebook and Set as default

Now, everything should goes fine, you can delete the old notebook file or not, if not, it will automatically sync to server without any problems

--

The issue that cause these problem is in your WP7, that notebook was currently set as defaullt to play the role of the leading note when synchonizing, when we delete the one from server, the leading one is error so they can not finish the whole process

--

Goodluck!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] foobar1:
Hi there,

my nexus one is stuck in a boot loop and crashed during the "X" animation.

It is not yet rooted but I'm able to boot into flashboot and recovery. If have data on the phone that I need to secure first before reseting or flashing it (like contacts, messages, not synced).

Is there a possibility to backup the data in any way? Or to restore the system without loosing data?

I've heard that with the N1 if I root it I will loose all the data, so this wouldn't be an option. Can I do something with fastboot? Or with the recovery mode?

One idea would be to somehow reinstall the last froyo update with the recovery mode (update.zip on sd card) and to hope that then it is working again. Is that possible? Is it possible to activate debug mode with boot time (it is off currently)?

Any help is really welcome. Thanks a lot.

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Jereguy:
Hey,

I'm wondering if there is any point in using launchers anymore. I've been using ADW since I got the phone. But since we have 2.1 are there any benifits to using launchers ? It seems people are recommending launcher pro. What are the benifits to using this over adw or stock? Better battery or anything ? Faster response ?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] chiefy009:
Hey, I used dxtop pro for a while, on 1.6, transferred it to 2.1 and it killed my battery. Since then changed to launcher pro and it is immense. It saves on battery and its ability to be customized makes using the phone a whole heap easier.

If anything this enhances using the phone.

Excellent replacement give it, give the free one ago and then go from there
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] SXUsr:
It's all about personal preference, I prefer ADW, some Launcher Pro, and some prefer the stock.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] chiefy009:
Yeah cause most it is based on what you want your homescreen to do
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Lord Takyon:
Personally I use ADW, never quite saw what was supposed to be so awesome with LauncherPro.

ADW does what I need it to, and for me it is easily as fast as LauncherPro.

All down to personal choice really.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] junkk29:
I've used ADW launcher when i was on 1.6 but once I've tried LauncherPro on 2.1, i love it! i think both of them are great launchers but i just think that LauncherPro is easier to use. I'm on Plus which is a paid version and they give you exclusive widgets as well, they're pretty neat but to be honest i don't use them lol. You should try both of them so you know, i think it's more about personal preference cuz both of them are awesome launchers :)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] DABenji:
I recently paid for launcher pro, never tried adw but it sounds the same, prefer the fact you csn zoom further out to see all the screens at once and the message, facebook and phone book widgets are awesome similar to the ones on my dads htc which is what I was looking for. Only prob is that I get a force close every now and then. Anyone got a possible solution for that?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] tiwey:
i personally love Zeam....it was what i used on 1.6 and when i changed to 2.1 i tried it but at first didn't like it...but now i've fallen in love because of how simple, yet dynamic it is.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] saltorio:
^ This.

I was using ADW under Android 1.6. With 2.1, I find LauncherPro to be smoother. I like features of both, and miss the features the other has.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] exekias:
+1 for zeam, amazing app luv it, cant stand all these xtra thingies all the others have, i used adw on 1.6 and made it minimalistic tried it on 2.1 ****

zeam ftw, all my m8s use it,

[General Questions and Answers] Meteorite-The-Second:
Hi fellas,

This is my first post in this site. I searched the website but I didn't find anything addressing my questions. Sorry if it has been asked before anyway.

I have recently bought a HTC phone and it arrived a few days ago from Hong Kong (I live in Australia).

The boxing of the phone was not sealed when arrived ( i.e. no seal tape). But in all the youtube videos I have watched, the boxing is sealed. Is this something I should worry about? (However the phone and everything else inside the boxing seemed almost neat when I got the phone)

I would also like to know how can I be sure if the phone IMEI number is not changed. All of us have heard some stories about IMEI scam. I checked the IMEI with *#06# and it was the same with the one on the sticker on back of the boxing. However, the sticker on back of the boxing seems

a little bit

abnormal (kinda fake) to me (maybe I am wrong though). I Just want to double check if everything about my new phone is alright.

Is checking imei through the "numberingplans" website is enough?

Should I check anything else to be sure of imei genuineness?

Help me, I am a rookie!

Thanks guys.
[General Questions and Answers] Product F(RED):
How much did you pay for it and what model is it advertised as? If it's too good to be true and it looks a little fake, it probably is. Do you have a link to that Youtube video? And the website you bought it from?

I checked my IMEI number in https://www.numberingplans.com/?page=analysis&sub=imeinr and received the reply that my phone is most likely authentic.

BUT, I wonder if I can 100% trust the result of the aforementioned web page? And if no, how can I be sure about authenticity of my phone?

Does the above-mentioned web page checks if my phone is NOT

NEITHER

2) Fake

agreed the software is behind. But the hardware is right on par. To me the more important thing is the hardware - because the software can be upgraded (as seen with Steve's Froyo).
[Streak 5 General] ameiurus:
I too was skeptic about not having a recent update to Android on this device. Regardless this device is miles ahead of my old Touch Pro 2. 2.2 is coming and I'm sure there's a lot of behind-the-scenes legal mumbo-jumbo responsible for the schedule. Dell is new to the smartphone game and I'm sure there's a learning curve.
[Streak 5 General] p51d007:
Anyone on XDA is probably here for the same reason. We want the BEST for our phones, but, waiting on carriers to release updated roms is like waiting for paint to dry.

The suits in charge of the carriers probably have to have a dozen or more meetings before they release an update, if they even update it at all.

Another reason I think the carriers should get out of the hardware business and

just be a provider. Yes, probably more headaches trying to make everything compatible, but just look at the Asian markets, and the numerous options they have for hardware. What to the states get? A few phones a year.
