1. Default dialer doesnt do speed dials (allocating numbers to contacts), nor does it have the smart dialling feature that most android phones have - this means that when on your dialpad you can type the names (or letters to the names) and the dialpad will display matching items. Once you ve used one of these its difficult to go back.

2. This thread states "current favourite apps for xperia x8" in the title which runs 1.6 as standard (at the mo) then states in the OP "on my rooted 1.6 android.

So thanks for comments but I still want to try the "fast dialer"
[XPERIA X8 General] vladsk8:
http://www.mobihand.com/product.asp?id=86769 find the dialer here. it is not free though but well worth it's price if you still have 1.6. Otherwise I would recommand OneDialer (I use it) or Nubdial.
[XPERIA X8 General] a-k-t-w:
I said that from experience, that's all. My Dad and I both have Xperias, I got a X8 whilst he has a X10 mini. Because of his smaller screen, he can't get all the apps I have, and so they don't appear in the market for him.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shokzi:
My internet didnt work when i flashed my unlocked HD2, after alot of research i turned off the "3G - Change to GSM mode." option. my internet works now but its painfully slow and i noticed i cant get 3g or HDSPA anymore, does this mean i cant get fast mobile internet anymore? :( :confused:

did you change your radio when you flashed?? might be that, seems unlikely but anythings possible.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gangman:
Hi all,

I got my Desire from the British carrier "Three" last April when it came out. It was stocked with Android 2.1 but the phone was unbranded and not locked so making life much easier.

I rooted the phone weeks later and flashed a number of various roms and radios (usually newest ones recommended by rom developers) and just played around with them. No problems ever occured and everything went smooth.

However a while ago (about 4 weeks I would say) strange thing happened: when the carrier 3 does not gave 3G coverage it usually switches to other network's 2G roaming service. It is also possible to switch to 2G permanently by forcing it via phone settings. It stopped working in Central London for me while still worked elsewhere (very strange) so I had to rely only on 3G service. I thought it was a network issue at first but now I'm not sure.

Later (or at least so I noticed) the connectivity started fooling around: even when standstill (i.e. NOT in a train, bus etc.) and staying at home the network connectivity just disappears all of a sudden. Sometimes it comes back by itself and sometimes I just do it manually via netowking settings. This is much more common when on the move (i.e. on the train etc. even though it never used to happen before). Moreover, sometimes while manually searching for network it says "your sim would not allow to connect to this network" even though I try to connect to the correct one. Instead I switch "WCDMA only" and "WCDMA/GSM auto" options and connection comes back by itself. Then it disappears again after a while. Even more strangely, connection does not disappear if I am talking on the phone with someone but in other situations (such as browsing internet) it just disappears and I see no bars in network reception indicator and cannot connect to internet or make phone calls.

I know 3 has a reputation (deserved or not) of having "bad" network but I don't think this has anything to do with that. My Desire used to work fine before and never had such problems (except in specific spots which have bad coverage). Moreover, I have another old phone and it works fine without any problems with networking while the Desire messes around. I am sure it has either to do with firmware or, worse, hardware.

I have tried a number of roms, radios and settings and it's the same thing all over.

If nothing works is there a way I can still bring it to warranty service after flashing "unrooted" stock rom if there is one available? I'm so frustrated because I have no idea why this is happening.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] im_iceman:
It's actually surprisingly easy to replace the firmware on your phone.. and then to swap it back if you need or want to.. have a look in the dev section and work your way upto it.. took me a while to build up the courage (mainly helped along by my impatience for the 2.1 upgrade)... but once i'd realised how easy it was.. there was no looking back.. i've since re-rooted my 2.1 several times, installed JIT to improve performance, removed a load of system apps that I don't use..

and if I bugger it up in the process, I can just repair it using SEUS and start from a fresh 2.1 build (not that I've needed to do that yet!).

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinacool:
The problem is that wifi calling app is using 33% of the power according to power tutor. wificalling is disabled. Now some one suggested that titanium backup can freeze wificalling, so i downloaded the pro version and tried to freeze it but it does not see to be working. Now i have a temp root.

Does any one know that if it can be frozen or is there another option cause 33% of the power is way to much for some thing i am not even using.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EfemaN:
I had suggested the Titanium Backup option. Did you reboot afterwards? I have Power Tutor and I'm not seeing Wifi Calling show up at all.

EDIT: Never mind, it decided to come back, although only at .2% right now. I'll see if uninstalling it using Titanium works.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinacool:
Tried rebooting, it comes right back on, mine is a temp root so may be that why, but i hope some one can come up with a better way to shut this thing of, i hope its not a problem with tutor some regisistering problem, is there another tool like tutor we can cross reference.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EfemaN:
I believe uninstalling it completely worked, which can be done with Titanium Backup; it creates a backup too, so you can restore it if need be. However, you'll need to be perma-rooted to do so. Otherwise, you're stuck with the application.

Although I noticed that Power Tutor also took up the largest chunk of power over about 15 minutes of on-time. I feel that's a bit counter-intuitive if the point is to help with power management.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinacool:
I think there might be a problem with tutor as well cause if i uncheck the lcd part of power reading the wifi calling disappears. So i think some glitch there any way i did not want to uninstall it cause might need it some time.

Hi,

I have rooted my phone using the guide off this site and done a nandroid backup, i believe thats all i need to do to back up the phone, if not please let me know what else i should do.

My question relates to custom rom, i want to install a custom rom and have decided which one i am going to use, but before i do i am trying to find the latest Vodafone UK rom for my HTC Wildfire phone.

Can someone please help me find a Genuine Vodafone UK Latest ROM for my HTC Wildfire?

I don't want to install a custom ROM and realise i cannot go back to original because there is not Vodafone UK ROM available.

Hi,

Thanks for this. I did check shipped-roms and there is a Vodafone one but it has SPA in the file name so not sure if that means it's Spanish.

I guess its risky for me to put a new ROM on it then as if it became faulty i would not have the original Vodafone ROM. I decided i will install a Genuine HTC ROM on it from shipped-roms and just wait for an update to Froyo from them as am i rite in thinking i will be able to get updates direct from HTC when available by installing the below ROM ?

Can you tell me am i rite in reading that this one is the latest genuine HTC Wildfire ROM shipped-roms? :

RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.37.405.1_Radio_13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25_release_151892_signed

I also am having problems installing the ROM. I successfully rooted the phone and have followed the instruction from both the below links but when when i choose Install zip from SD Card and then select Choose zip from SD Card i choose the ROM and press the circle button my HTC Wildfire and it just strangely goes back to previous menu and reboots without installing the new ROM, i get no errors or anything, if i press the power button it just takes me back to previous menu and i can only select the ROM by pressing the circle button on phone, and of course the volume buttons are for moving up and down.

Can anyone help with why this is happening? it just won't install it as described above.

Here are the tutorials i followed and just cant get it to install:

my hd2 shut down twice by it self today but after second shut down the phone is not booting completely it stays on after the two boot screens, it stays on the orange windows page and not finish boot. ( 2.13 stock rom)

i did like 10 hard resets and nothing

maybe or my only solution is to flash another ROM, im thinking the 3.14 upgrade cuz i was on 2.13.

i did upgrade from 2.10 to 2.13 but my phone was on and sync with my pc (this was like 7 months ago)

i just want to know if i can upgrade to 3.14 with the phone in the three color screen boot screen or i have to do the whole hspl thing and flash a custom rom??

Flashing from bootloader is how ANY ROM flashes. Put your device in bootloader, connect via USB, and flash away!

Big THANKS

i did flash my phone before but it was up and running but because it was an upgrade form the tmobile site the phone went to bootloader by it self and not by me so i was confused if i do it directly been on bootloader it will work but now i know

thanks again
[HD2 General] MaD-TiCk:
ok, so i flashed the stock upgrade 3.14 ROM from TMOUS site but problem didn't go away, it crashed, it shutdown by it self and not turning on, not even vibrate or went to boot page it just didn't do anything , so i waited almost a day to turn it back on and the phone did turn on but i tried it in bootloader and flashed a custom ROM (BlueTopia 1.0.2 by cmylxgo) and it was working like a charm with android

BUT silly me i took the storage card out without turning the phone off and android running so when i realize i did it i put it back but phone was off and now it don't want to turn on. I'll wait like 15 min to try turn it back on and see what happens...

could it be a software thing?? i'm starting to think is hardware problem because it happened with 3 different ROMs?

does anyone had this problem before??

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
But assuming that's the original T-Mo OTA (and I've seen nothing to suggest there's a new one) then it's safe to install the OTA and simply re-root.

You are correct, of course, that folks should stay clear of future OTAs if they are rooted though, till they've been checked by the devs - see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=875099

Yeah, I think it just threw some people off with the idea of an ota on a new device. It's still the same ole 1st ota for the G2 unfortunately. Nothing to rip out or borrow... :(

weird that it didn't come with the ota already on the device but since android, ota's haven't been flashed on the device. nevermind, I thinking of the old wm devices... I'm a bit tired.
