[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] hnrobert:
Downloading right now update for xperia mini, I was not aware it was going to be released today, hope its goods anyways, keep you posted when it finishes :D
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] tekken179:
Heh really what version would this be? Hows the progress?

Sent using x10 mini pro
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] hnrobert:
50% this are the times I wish I had a 2gigabit connection :/
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] hnrobert:
done

Software version: 2.1-update1

dont know whats new, no intro as past update was shown on startup...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] hnrobert:
ahh.. phone unrooted, z4root not working stuck on running exploit screen.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] yahona3:
How did you update?

Through wireless or through cable with a pc software like the pc companion?

Did the phone tell about the update when you searched for update?

Please I need to know!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] hnrobert:
pc companion... software on pc alerted of the update when I conected the phone, tried to search for an update from the phone but it told me it was up to date.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sathkartha:
got to see about the availability of an update when I connected my mini to my PC and the PC Companion opened up.Went for the update that took such a long time to complete.I see virtually nothing new or beneficial in the few hours gone by.Oh-I lost the ability to root the phone,Z4 doesn't work anymore.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] yahona3:
Didn't find any update not even with pc companion

:-/
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] donetus:
same here .. there was no prompt when i plugged in the mini pro.

when i opened PC Companion, it says that I already up the latest update.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
I'm usually pretty quick on the updates but this one looks like one to avoid until we can sort out the root issue..

I noticed they already have a solution for the Big X10 by installing a pre Rooted version of the update with xRecovery.. any solution like this available for the mini/pro yet? :)

All in good time I guess.. someone is probably making a Pre rooted, pre JIT'ed pre Gingerbread themed xRecovery zip file with the new firmware as I type this :cool:

fingers crossed..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] dettofatto:
I'm sorry....

Your stock album is now fast?

Because the first 2.1 stock album is very slow.....

I think that you can't extract for us... But....
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] stereonation71:
Me too updated my mini and now unable to root. How to get back to previous one?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] banderos101:
I could be mistaken, but i think x10flasher root method still works.

Downloaded 2.1-update1 (as it says on my phone) on the 24th, almost certain its the unrootable version u guys seem to be talking about, as z4root which worked for my 1.6, couldnt unroot this version(i also thought it was root patched)

Long story short, was messing around with it, tried the X10flasher 2.1 root method, hey presto rooted phone. So give it a shot, wont hurt, and if im right, still a viable root method for 2.1.

Here's the link

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8976947&postcount=1

If im wrong, sorry for bringing hopes up.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
It just looks like the Big X10flash GUI's "Root" option just installs Z4root onto the phone in which case it should be no different from just trying to use Z4root to root without the Flashtool... unless Bin4ry just has a different version of Z4root that works on the new firmware? (easy enough for someone having issues rooting with the new update to download his Flash tool and grab the Z4root version he uses out of it to try.. I don't hold high hopes tho, you can always use his flashtool to flash back to the old 2.1 and not update with SE until the root issue is sorted)

(also, I haven't updated my phone in weeks and it say's its running "2.1-update 1" so its possible you are still on the older rootable version, and it was just the version of Z4root you were using wasn't compatible with 2.1, lest hope I am wrong tho cause it would be great if this works!! :D )
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] porcupineadvocate:
Got the update. It killed my root and apparently my market? Any attempts to start Market crash immediately.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Banzon:
The new 2.1 update 1 is ver. 2.0.2.A.0.24 :)

This is the one i got 24dec. in denmark, and this one wont root with z4root.

Still waithing for this to be fixed :D
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] cluster2a:
is there any way to root it again?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] distruct:
Hi,

I've googled already for my problem but didn't found anything...

I made an backup with titanium backup and now I'm trying to restore it into the superram 1.5 build from darkstone.

The problem is that the titanium backup is in another map named /mnt/sdcard/titaniumbackup/ This is the superram 1.5 build.

How can I acces that map? I copied the backup to the sd card, in the map Titaniumbackup just as my old build. That just works but with the new build from darkstone it isn't.

How can I put it in the right directory?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] buzz killington:
menu -> preferences -> backup folder name

I assume that's what you're asking for, unless you have other problems with restoring?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] distruct:
I don't mean that.

The problem is that on my old build the titanium backup is in /sdcard/titaniumbackup/

With the superram it's in /mnt/sdcard/titaniumbackup/

I can't get into the /mnt/ map, I think it means mount. How can I restore my apps?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XERO_Racer:
Has anyone noticed on startup the 2 LEDs where the hardware buttons are, are very bright and have a purplish blue tint on the color? But after that they get dim during regular usage and turn into like a ice blue color :confused:
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nathaniel57:
I've noticed that too, although I think it's only after the 2.1 update.

Personally I'd much prefer the LEDs to be that purple colour all the time, but I don't know if it's possible.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vrs2610:
I wish you can customize them and make them blink like the w760.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XERO_Racer:
+1 thats a must, i always know they blink once if you get a message, someone should definietly look into it

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] graemegb:
Just came out. offers a lot more features than the original. anyone going to buy?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
What new features are included?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Xandlinger:
Ugh, I can't purchase it, I was hoping this problem would go away when I got the Nexus S. Problem: Can't purchase any app that is priced in euros.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] unremarked:
The app's author made a video of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KD5WD-HDagM&feature=player_embedded

EDIT: Looks slow because I think the video was made using the Android Emulator rather than an actual device. Just pointing that out before folks start going "omgitsslowzz"
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] graemegb:
just purchased and it does seem a lot slower than LP. luckily i was able to return within the 15 minutes.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] URPREY:
It's blazing fast on my NS and my N1
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] bblanski:
This is replacing my launcher pro.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] nxt:
So far, other than the nifty new animations, app drawer, presets, it looks the same as the free ADW.Launcher which I currently use and my favorite. More than likely I'll buy it, once I finish watching the video.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] zorak950:
What if I already have the free ADW.Launcher? Does buying EX mean I have to reset all my options and homescreens, or is there a way to transfer them over?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] HellG:
My god.. this is the shiiit!... the shiiiit!!

Most badass laucher ive tried..

Fast preset on galaxy s(jpu+voodoo5.0.3), If i lunch any program(s) and compare to Lp ex... best launcher so far, hands down allahterror kneestand.. whatever, its the ****.! :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] nxt:
Probably new shrug. Try backing it up and see if it works.

It worked! but you have to rename the original adw.launcher backup file to the EX backup file.

ADW.Launcher backup files:

adw_launcher.db

adw_settings.xml

Rename both to adw_ex_launcher.db and adw_ex_settings.xml

Course you'll need to readd your widgets though. But most of the settings transfer over.

How do I get the 1st dock back? I swipe up and get the hidden dock but how I get the other dock back?

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] nxt:
Swipe down.

I tried it. I still prefer launcherpro.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sarahqputra:
Same here.. I prefer lp
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] munchy_cool:
this thing rocks on my samsung spica i5700, better than LP , the EX version of ADW is better than the latest LP is all I have to say after 9 hours of usage ...blazing fast ...good work anderweb!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] allareconnected:
Works incredibly on my Galaxy Tab & NS! Thanks for the heads up!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] plmiller0905:
Everytime I swipe down...my taskbar comes down with it...

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] nxt:
You need to swipe down on the dock itself. Put an app in that 2nd dock, it'll make it easier.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dinan:
Hm... LP still seems smoother to me. And LP still doesn't feel as smooth as it does on my N1 or Vibrant... guess I'll have to wait for a gingerbread compatible LP.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] bteljuice:
Lack of widgets compared to Sense.

I wish I could get the following widgets:

Clock with weather and date integrated

People

Messages

Email

Gmail

Well, basically everything sense offers.

But ADW ex uses less memory and is much faster than sense.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] yatindroid:
adw launcher ex 1.0

MOD EDIT: Posting Paid App

Yatin Sorry for warz

i m not so aware about this
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Zenoran:
Needed for ns! Lp doesn't work well enough any more. This is flawless.

Especially nifty once I figured out the whole hidden dock thing lol.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] unremarked:
Its differently fast and better than how I remember it, but I will keep LauncherPro Plus because of the awesome almost Sense-like Facebook and Messaging Widgets.

Oh and i like the sliding "hidden docks" on LP more too.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
I think I'm going to buy it and check it out, really just to support the developer of such a great launcher :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Please do NOT post the app here; as it is a paid app, doing so is spreading warez, and may constitute a warning or infraction. Thank you.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] wargy:
Will try that, thanks for the info!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] bteljuice:
wait

what widgets :(

I had LP plus and didnt see any messaging, facebook or clock with weather widgets :(

The only reason i dont run LP nor ADW is the lack of Widgets Sense HAS. Which gives it the upper hand
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
LPP has special widgets that are indeed sense-like. They're there under LPP Widgets when you long press the screen :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Ok, I just got it; my first impressions:

It's just as fast as ADW, and very customizable.

Great rotation speed

Nice new animations

Apart from that, not much else that's really different as of yet.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] bteljuice:
Will check the Widgets you mentioned. Thank you for the quick reply.

So which do you prefer? PL Plus, ADW ex, or Sense?

I think Widgets play a Major part in Android. Which those Launcher would concentrate on them more.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
I love the widgets in sense, but overall for speed and look I've always preferred ADW.... for me, the LPP widgets aren't quite as good as the sense ones, and I've never found LPP to be as fast as either version of ADW. Just my impressions though :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] bteljuice:
Same exact thoughts. But, ADW doesnt have widgets...nothing...nada...zero.

Which is really upsetting.

Is there a way to use ADW ex and download widgets from market or something.

It would be like having the best of both worlds :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Yes as a matter of fact :) There's some good widgets on the market, pure calendar and pure messenger widgets are a bit sense-like and are very nice :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] bteljuice:
Thank you, searching and downloading as we speak :D

If you have other more suggestions for Widgets, please do share :)

How about the sense clock with weather and date?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
No problem :) For weather and date, I like Beautiful Widgets, really customizable with weather animations too, just like sense. But for a good free app, Fancy Widget is very nice too :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] bteljuice:
I dont mind Paying apps. As long as they are goooood and worth it.

Will try all the suggested widgets :)

Thanks again Impaler. Really Appreciate it :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Not a problem at all, and feel free to let me know if you need anything else :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] unremarked:
Like you, one of the things i always liked about Sense was the Widgets so LPP was a compromise between the slower Sense and the faster ADW.

The author of LPP is supposed to be working on a rewrite which should speed things up, I think.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Hmm, hope he does because I'd certainly give it another go :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] thepoetvd776:
I know these offer more customization but are they quicker than stock launcher? Do they use less memory?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] unremarked:
Generally, they seem quicker but why not find out for yourself? :) Free versions of LauncherPro and ADW Launcher are on the market. No root needed and it installs/uninstalls like any other app. The paid versions generally unlock additional customization, but performance is there, paid or free.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Agreed, and I like both better than stock android, TouchWiz, or Sense :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
I'm liking the screen transitions! This may be the deciding factor for me over LauncherPro Plus.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Yeah, they're really nice :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
Is there a way to get the icons in the dock to display their unread count like in LauncherPro? I notice that my Plume icon is displaying my number of unread tweets, but I'd like Gmail and Handcent to show the number of onread on thier respective icons as well.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
I believe you'd need to buy ADW notify to get it to do that; I was about to, but since this is the first iteration of ADWex, I held off. It's very possible that the dev. will include that feature that you must pay for in the regular ADW for us ADWex users :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
I thought it was included with EX since some apps show the notifications, and there's an option for it in the menu. Maybe I'm using it wrong.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Hmm.... I don't see it for my apps like messaging :confused:
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
I've only got it on Plume right now!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Yeah, I see it on autokiller, nothing else....
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] MaliceOmega:
awesomeness on the NS. and the gingerbread theme has some cool icons and wallpapers. screen transitions are awesome, and im overjoyed that they added the 4d rolodex for the app tray. definitely worth it, thanx a lot dude :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Yeah, it's a nice app for sure :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] nxt:
You need ADWNotify, I bought that a while ago and it works with ADW.Launcher EX, just like it does with regular ADW.Launcher.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
So I was correct? We do still need to buy it.... I wonder if he will include it, since we already paid for the product... I think I'll ask him
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] chris6278:
I still prefer lp plus. Nothin against adw i think its a great launcher but lp feels smoother to me an i like the features on lp plus alil better
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
Just got it last night, and it does fix the problem. I just wish it gave us an option for Google Voice notifications.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Ok cool, maybe I'll buy it also
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jankyboy:
Can ADW be configured to show unread message, missed call, and unread email counts?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] nxt:
With a seperate app called ADWNotifier, yes. It's a pay app.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jankyboy:
Thanks!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] PlankLongBeard:
This IS REALLY a step up! I've been a Launcher Pro Plus User for a while now and this is phenomenal :-)

Sent From a Crop Circle... with a Nexus S :-)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Yeah I like ADWex much better as well :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] seriouslyjeff:
Nice thank you! I LOVE pure messaging widget. It is IMO better than friend stream because you can select (as you can with motoblur) what services you want supported in the widget without having to deal with Motorola's crappy system integration :-) great recommendations!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
No problem, happy to help :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ikon8:
Do the little icon notifications work good on this? One thing I really like and rely on in LPP is the notification bubbles for sms and gmail. Do you have to purchase ADWNotifiy separately for it to work?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Yes you need to purchase it separately, but when you do, I hear it works well :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] monkeydrufy:
Sorry guys,

I'm trying adw luncher ex but I have 2 limitation that I can't resolve:

1) Is there a way to change the number of the page on the home screen (especially reduce it)?

2) is there a way to hide the dock when I open the application menu?

thanks
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] nxt:
1. Press Menu, then Edit.

2. hide the dock when you open what application menu?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] vapotrini:
1. As the post above me already stated, menu then edit.

2. Nope. Nothing you can do. That's one of my big gripes about EX. You lose perspective on the app drawer being 3d because the bottom row's view is obstructed thanks to the stupid launcher being there. Bad design.

I also didn't like the fact that I had to purchase ADW Notify just to get notifications. To make matters worse, it doesn't even work with Chomp Sms.

Things I hope he changes, adds....

1. Option to make 4d drawer transparent

2. Widgets

3. Built in notifications

4. Remove launcher from 4d app drawer
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] rsohne:
I believe the author stated on his website he is accepting Paypal for that very reason.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jinvox:
I actually took the plunge and bought the app. It does a nice job; almost as good as Launcher Pro (but missing its own scrollable widgets or its own widgets in general) but I'm wondering if I'm the only one when I say...

Does having these Home Replacements stutter the phone a bit more? It seems to happen with this app and the Slidescreen. Anyone else seen this? :confused:
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] thepoetvd776:
I tried both and really like then although I have to admit I liked launcher pro more because of the widgets, if only the 3d launcher worked right.

Does anyone know when it will get fixed?

The I've thing that adw does better are still the translations between screens.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] syst3mfailur3:
New to android in general, and bought bought EX and LPP. Right now I like both about equally, just in different areas. I like the look and feel of LLP, its a bit faster and the Dock(?) disappears when App drawer is open. On the other hand, I love the way EX is set up options wise. It is more simple and organized.

I will probably use EX for the time being, but might switch to the LPP rewrite when it comes out.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
I you can set the dock to go away on ADW as well, in hidden dock settings :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] tominater12:
Is it worth it?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
IMHO yes :) It's fast, very customizable, and is what I've come to expect from ADW.... a solid, speedy phone launcher :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] zohawkish:

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ranxoren:
Pardon me if im wrong but wouldn't this be piracy ?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] zohawkish:
why piracy .... just a share!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
Because it's warez, which is strictly forbidden on xda.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Sim-1:
One thing I don't like about this great launcher is that you cannot hide the dockbar when enternig the drawer. It's a small thing but I'm surprised they didn't think about it.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
You can, mine does ;) Go to settings, and general settings I believe. It's called hidden dockbar :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Sim-1:
Can you be more specific please? I have tried several combinations but the dock remains there all the time!

Thanks.:)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ikon8:
You can't hide the dock in the app drawer, this was one of my gripes with ADW ex too. That, and the LP+ widgets are really nice.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Apparently I'm delusional.... I could've sworn I had it gone, but I just looked and it's there for me too..... I just never ever really noticed it :o
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] tominater12:
So what do you think it the best reason to use this over the stock launcher?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Faster, more options, and great customizability I think :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] hansmrtn:
Am I the only one who doesn't like it? Its to gimmicky for me.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
What exactly is "gimmicky" about it?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] neok44:
the 3d launcher is suppose to be fixed in the rewrite that last fede said was going to finally be released sometime this month.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
I love it :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] graemegb:
it is very fast, but it does FC a lot and also is very slow and laggy after closing out of an app. also unresponsive from time to time. if he can fix that with the re-write, then im all for it.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
I've never had one FC with it, unlike LP.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Nor have I, ADW is much better IMHO
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ryan562:
i'm trying out adw ex right now and love it. i've been using LP for the past year and i've been experiencing problems with the 3d app drawer, lag, force closes. i've never had such issues under froyo builds on my previous android phones. perhaps it's just a gingerbread thing i don't know.

until then, i'll be using adw ex for now. only gripe about adw is the notifier. the def should've integrated/cooked push notifications or missed notifications into adw launcher and not post it as a seperate and paid app.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Agreed. That's the biggest flaw IMHO as well
