What about Pandora? I've already opened up another thread hoping someone would be having the same experience. Pandora appears to crash on startup for me in the PPC Gingerbread build.

Slacker radio works just fine for me though.

http://www.xperiax10.net/2011/01/06/official-xperia-x10-family-will-not-receive-upgrade-to-froyo-or-beyond/

Well.. looks like SE are writing off the entire X10 line in favor of their new devices running 2.3 coming out later this year, so thats a big NO from sony ericsson about getting 2.2.. ever! :mad:

Lets hope the DEV's can cook something up..

COME ON SE RELEASE THE BOOT LOADER ALREADY!!!!!!!! (if your not gonna support us, let us support ourselves!)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] DaRk_dOg:
Great.

But think about it. It could be worse (they would even downgrade our phones if they could)

:D

Regards, D_d
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
If only they could.. oh wait.. the last update? loosing root.. I would call that a downgrade.. just wait for the next one.. it will magic our phones back to 1.6! :D

if people stopped playing with these make shift Roms and actually concentrated on hacking the bootloader we might actually get 2.2 or even 2.3.. seems everyone has given up tho and settled for backup style roms.. looks like SE has won :(

(even so.. I am looking forward to the new mini replacement with 1Ghz processor, X8 size screen and Gingerbread...mmm.. droooool.. call me a sucker for punishment)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ghost+:
that sucks, but i still love my x10 mini, this is my first android phone and thanks to xda, im getting brave enough to play with it...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] movelbit:
xperia10.net is a untrustable source.

that was a good step from xperia10.net

they do the rumor, and wait for SE to official deny it or confirm it.

I would say few days to have official information on this :)

I do quote my own first line of this post...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ppirate:
On a positive note, it seems we will get ANT+ support on the X10 mini/pro and X8. Seems like the hardware is in place, they will now add the needed software support.

I for one like this more than an version bump for android. All applications I want to use run on 2.1 (this was not so when it was only at 1.6). And having ANT+ in the future is very nice. I already own a couple ANT+ devices as I sport a lot..

This has been a real concern since the first day I got my phone, someone please answer this. If I want to switch from a non sense build to a sense build is there anyway I can backup or restore all my application data? Because I did so much I don't wanna lose it...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TheATHEiST:
Would have made more sense if you had titled your topic with the question really. Titles are meant to be descriptive and makes searching topic titles better for people who are trying to aks same question as it narrows down search results.

It depends on if you are using a SD or a NAND build.

If its a SD build then you simply copy your data.img file over to new build. If its NAND then you still have thsi option if its one that uses a data.img but you can also use a app like Titanium Backup or MyBackup Pro etc or maybe clockwork recovery I think, not sure about last as I haven't tried it yet.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] m2shakiba:
well i think it is kind of impossible to change from a nonesense to sense but if you want to back up your applications mybackup pro does it for you

but there is a little problem that every time i tried this i got the eror "cannot unzip the package"

otherwise it should work
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Beretta93:
Titanium backup is the most advanced backup app in my opinion, and it's from XDA memeber. Be careful about what you restore nonetheless, since system apps must not be replaced by those from other builds whose version is different.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dung8604:
This is incorrect. They will not work going from non sense to sense, and usually won't work going from builds by different chefs, sense or not. Titanium backup is the best way to go regardless of build type
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
As above 2 posts...

Titanium Backup is great, but one word of advice...

It's worth the pennies for the paid version. Why? With the free version, when you do a restore of your apps you have to confirm every installation with a button click, and then again when it's done. That can be VERY boring! (Obviously depends how many apps you're restoring.)

With the paid version you can just click "restore apps & data" and it does it all for you, with no further intervention needed.

[General Questions and Answers] IsiEMT:
I was using S2U2 as a screen lock application while running Windows Mobile 6.1 on my HTC Touch Pro 2. In the beginning everything worked smoothly, and S2U2 was exactly the program I needed. However, after I while, I started experiencing problems with my text messaging applications. Text messages would not come in, only the screen would wake up. Then, if I unlocked the phone with S2U2, the first stuck text message would come in. Later, as the problem progressed, text messages would not come in even after the unlock. I would have to open any other program, close it, and then the next SMS would come in. And so on. It came to a point where I was going off my mind, and I couldn't figure out where the source of the problem is.

It seemed as it is either a software problem or a system problem. Because of all the problems I decided it's time to upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.5. I was confident that this would stabilize everything. Unfortunately, after restoring all programs and settings from a backup program, it was even worse. I was very disappointed. This meant that the problem is with some software, and trying to figure out which one is a major job. But I had no choice. I made another hard reset and started re-installing all programs one by one, while monitoring performance in order to pinpoint the bad guy.

Guess what? I installed everything I had before and it works very fine. The only program I did not install is S2U2. I suspected this one is causing all the trouble, but I had no evidence. Now I do. I need this program desperately, but I'm afraid to re-install it, because I'm sure it will start all the problems again...

Later, I found another similar program (but not free) - Pocket Shield. So I installed this program. Worked nicely, but sure enough, after a day or 2, the same problems started to resurface again!

I guess after all, it must be something in the code that both programs use that clogs up the system.

Right now, I'm totally lost. I desperately need a screen locker because my phone does all kind of weird stuff on its own while in my pocket, but I'm afraid to install any of these programs, as I'm sure it will mess everything up again!!

Any help will be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks in advance...

[Android Themes] Zalastax:
This guide is to help people start creating Themes for ADW and understand what they are doing.

Instead of just replacing images by unzipping an APK I will tell you how to create your own theme from scratch.

I had a real struggle to find all this and I now I want to share what I found out

I will provide you with links with content that you should read and write some things by myself.

How to : Setup your working environment

How to : Make your own theme

Where should I put my images/xml?

The drawables (images/xml) should be putted in the drawable folder as standard. If you want to have different images for different pixel density(xhdpi/hdpi/mdpi/ldpi) make the folders: drawable-xhdpi,drawable-hdpi,drawable-mdpi and drawable-ldpi.

the text behind the hyphen (-) is a configuration qualifier. Android looks for these and if it suits the specific device it will choose the drawables from that folder instead of from the default folder. If a resource android looks for isn't found in the special folder it will instead look in the default folder for it.

If you want different images for landscape mode you would need to create a folder called drawable-land and if you want different images when the device is both mdpi and in landscape you would create a folder called drawable-land-hdpi.

Find out more about resource qualifiers

How do I add my own icons?

Find the name of the icon you want to replace at Theme Icon Name Database

Place your own drawable in the right folder.

E.g. To change the icon for the Android stock browser in a hdpi device I would ad a file called com_android_browser_browseractivity.png in drawable-hdpi. If I want the same icon for all devices that uses my theme I could add the same icon in the folder drawable.

How do I export my theme for testing?

Right click on you project in Eclipse and select export. Click the Android folder and select Export Android Application. Press next and then next again. Choose "Use existing keystore". Press browse.

In windows find C:\Users\ENTER YOUR USERNAME HERE\.android\debug.keystore

In Linux and OS X I think it is in: ~/.android/debug.keystore

The Password is android.Press next.Choose "Use existing key".

Alias: androiddebugkey

Password:android

Press next. Press browse and choose your destination of the apk. Click Finish and you are done.

Help! ADW force closes and I can't uninstall the theme!

Look here for sulution

If there is something that needs to be added send me a PM or write a comment.

I will add: program to use to create the images and eventually a complete sample theme with documentation.

If you find the tutorial good, please post to bump the thread.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] booyakasha:
The main difference is going to be your update frequency (IMHO), but custom roms can fix that problem. Bounce around the two forums and see which you like better, head up youtube and watch review videos, check out the development going on for each, then make an educated decision as to which is best for you.

That's about all the input I'm interested in giving before echoing slowz request.

[Q] Nexus S better dans GT-I9000?

Hi everyone.

I was wondering something about this new Nexus S....

I'm currently the owner of a Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000M From Bell in Canada.

Today at CES 2011 they said that the Nexus S will come to Canada.

I got 4 replacement for the GT-I9000M since August (in fact since october). The internal Memory Failed, The battery life was poor, 3 button recovery was not enabled, GPS innacurate, Hard time connecting it to my computer and all the stuff said in bad about this phone I got it.....

Since the Nexus S is almost the same (hardware speaking) I was wondering if all the bugs that the SGS suffer from was happening with the Nexus S?

Is the Partition Table is the same?

Do Internal Memory Fail once again?

Is there any issue with Recovery mode?

GPS problems?

Poor battery life?

Any Lag issue?

I really enjoy my SGS when it's not failing but the Nexus S attract me a little more since it got 2.3 and update straight from Google instead of waiting after the carrier "testing" the new rom...

So anyone having or tested both phone or can speak with experience in here?

Thanx
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teranox:
One of the main reason I don't want to get any trouble with the phone is that Samsung got the worst customer service ever seen in electronics (home appliances, tv, phones)...

so the less I have to deal with them the best it is.

Samsung said they are open the put it on the AWS network in canada so if the phone is good, this could be the phone that will make me switch from Rogers to Videotron
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekkitan:
No offense, but you're asking in a Nexus S forum what phone we'd prefer. Most of us own a Nexus S. So what do you think the answer is going to be?

Frankly I am not sure why you are having so many problems. I have an SGS for work and it works great. I bought the Nexus S to replace my G1 and it's like a dream compared to my G1. You could always get one and try it out. If you don't like it, return it.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teranox:
In fact the same thread is on the GT-I9000 Q&A forum. I want to see on both sime your opinions.

But I was thinking that maybe someone here had or also have the GT-I9000 as secondary or previous smartphone. So I could get some feedback and difference
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
I have both. GT i9000 was my main phone from July until I got the Nexus S.

They're both fine pieces of hardware.

Software-wise, the GT i9000 was a train wreck out of the box. The Samsung RFS file system introduces significant lag to the phone. I know some of the later "leaked builds" of Sammy firmware seem to have addressed this, but I'm not sure if you bought a new one that you'd get it. That means to make the i9000 a pleasurable user experience you must root it and put in custom kernels and "lag-fixes". If you're into that kind of thing, lots of support and options. If you're not, you will definitely prefer the out-of-the-box performance of the NS.

I much prefer the Nexus S physically. It looks and feels better. Has a bit more heft and doesn't feel like I'm going to drop it as much.

I prefer the standard four capacitive buttons on the NS, but miss the trackball of the N1 or physical home button of the SGS. On the SGS the home button is just like the iPhone button in that it will wake the device from sleep...only the power button does that on the NS.

The power button on the NS is a bit easier to hit one handed than on the SGS for some reason.

As I said, they're both fine phones. If you're a ROM flasher, then there are only two real determining factors in my mind that you should consider.

The first is how important is it to you that you have Google's flagship phone that is most likely to get software updates to the base OS fastest (if that's important the Nexus S is your choice).

The second is which network do you want to use, and which phone supports the best 3G speeds on that network. In the US, if you want AT&T 3G service, you must pick the i9000; if you want T-Mo 3G you must pick the Nexus S.

I'm not a huge fan of T-Mo as my primary carrier, so the SGS still has some allure to me, but if network wasn't an issue (ie., there was options for AT&T or Verizon Nexus S and i9000) then the Nexus S would be a no brainer!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ExtremeGMX:
Hello!

I've read all the comparison out there and I haven't really decided which one should I buy. I've read the hardware is the same but the benchmarks tests are showing different (the nexus always win?) Is the screen on the nexus worse due that it's not gorilla and that it is S-LCD ? I've heard that galaxy S has many lags and such, so my question is does nexus s have any "known bugs" ?

I really appreciate your answers!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
Nice resurrection of a 9 month old thread...

The nexus will benchmark and generally run faster/smoother thanks to it's native EXT4 file system. The screen isn't worse, it's just more fragile than gorilla glass (though neither is likely to withstand a hard enough fall).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madd0g:
Get the Nexus. SGS has a slow moviNAND memory on which the app data partition is. Thats why it's laggy like ****. 2.3* brought improvement in RFS, so the conversion to EXT4 (lagfix) ain't needed/doesn't make a difference. Maybe it doesn't show that much, if you don't install many apps, but when comparing SGS and NS side by side, everyone could noticed that lag on SGS. GPS is also worse and the build quality.

Maybe only thing I *could* miss is the AMOLED from SGS (on SLCD now), but on the other hand, AMOLED sucks balls on the sun, SLCD is much better. And that kinda is more important, then the black blacks.

Who cares what the HW specs tell you, or the benchmarks. It's hard to actually rate the phone, since no one can tell you the quirks of a device, if he ain't an experienced and technical knowledgeable user.

I know what I'm talking about, since I went from Desire to SGS in June, now I'm ****ing happy I could sold it and buy the Nexus. Everything works like a charm here, no need to flash 923 ROM's and fixes or whatever. I was constantly "improving" my SGS over 3 months, since I was never happy with it. Check the SGS forums, full of posts "how to improve that", "lagfix", "thisfix", blabla. Here on NS forums, it's rather dull (thank god).

Hope that makes your decision easier.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ExtremeGMX:
Thanks for your opinions! I bought the Nexus S today and it's awesome compared to my old Omnia II :D (če bi vedel, bi mi lahko kar po slo. povedal heh ;))

Hi guys,

New android user here and using the P500. Just rooted my phone and only used a cpu overclock app on it. I want my phone to have better performance, I noticed this phone keeps running programs like settings, messaging apps, etc even though I never touched them, using up the ram pretty fast. Killed them with taskiller and other task manager apps but still they autostart after awhile.

How do I permanently disable them when not in use?

What other ways can I do to improve the performance?

I've read some threads here but as a noob android user I'm still lost. Hope to someone can guide me here and teach a thing or two.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] raylgo:
From what I understand, those tasks running in the background will actually save you battery and memory. It has something to do with how the OS deals with many tasks at once. I'm not an expert at that so try reading a few articles on the android's task killing. There are pros and cons on both sides. I try not to mess around with my task killer anymore unless an app freezes on me.

Oh and the only way you can get rid of some is to uninstall the useless ones via root + root explorer or to use one of the many custom ROMs that have done away with bloatware. Most custom ROMs have the usual performance tweaks anyway so choose whichever has the least unnecessary apps (i went with the void-base ROM, almost zero apps then I manually installed the ones I will be using)
