same issue...

i don't think usb is broken...coz the phone went dead when i was playing a game...there was no issue with the usb port then...

when i charge the RED light blinks...

if i remove the battery and place it back and swith it on RED light blinks again but for 3 times....and no display....

i've been searchin solution for this issue on sonyericsson support forums and xda support forums but no solution that i came across works...

does this mean that xperia x10 dies just by playing games? phone freezes and dies....weird!!
[XPERIA X10 General] mrtim123:
this was some time ago for me, and has not happened since, but i was thinking about it recently and i was actually thinking it was heat related. i was charging (at the time it died last time) via usb-pc connection, and that always gets really hot. maybe its a thermal heat saving thing?
[XPERIA X10 General] simacid:
You should avoid charging via usb on PC...it never charges battery properly and is recommended when you only want to charge your phone to do it via charger, not PC usb.
[XPERIA X10 General] Prodeje79:
Where is the data on this?

I just discovered as of yesterday, that my Lenovo (IBM) Thinkpad T400 only has one good USB port as far as my X10a is concerned. The other 2 ports appear to connect, but the charge still falls down.

My best port is on the left side, further back of the two.

I am using rendeiro2005's [MOD/ROM)scamble_v01[CM6.1.3][30MAR]

I am attempting a portion of the cycle of power as noted here:

# Unplug Charger and do not plug back in until your phone dies

# Reboot into recovery once it is dead by connecting charger

# Wipe battery stats

# Charge to 100% and repeat the discharging, wiping, and charging process about 3-5 times

In attempt to make sure my battery was drained, I kept turning my phone on.

This led to my flashing red LED of death.

I attempted this workaround, but it didn't work exactly, but close enough.

I had to pop the battery out and in and disconnect usb a few times and back in until it started charging.....
[XPERIA X10 General] mrtim123:
yep, i generally do, but i was away on a trip and only had access to a pc/usb for charging (forgot my AC charger!)
[XPERIA X10 General] Casmo:
Red flash of death:

For me it was because the connector on my phone(!), was broken.

So I send it back for repair.

A friend of mine had exact the same.

Vodafone is currently repairing mine, and made a photo of what was broken. ;p

Now the wait till they repair it and send it back to me O_o

x10 not charging, not working at all

when i got my x10 which was sent to me thru dhl, i saw it was working before it was placed inside the box then when i get it just this morning i tried to power it on but it didn't so i charged it but nothing happened. Even the led indicator is not blinking so i tried to buy a new one. there, the indicator blinks when i power it up but still didn't work. i tried to charge my original battery thru usb for more thn 2 hours and charge it thru clipped charger for almost half day now but nothing happened. issue is still persisting. can somebody help me with these?
[XPERIA X10 General] rshui:
haha.. this had happen to me be4 when i flash to custom ROM. and tht time my phone battery was 34%. After flash. it show only 10% ._. how funny it is..
[XPERIA X10 General] immafreebeetch:
i tried using these steps but nothing happened. the green led lights up but after a minute is goes out and then nothing happened.

what else can i do to turn my x10 on? i'm really losing hope for this phone. really disappointed. and i don't wanna say these but i'm starting to hate sony ericsson for not responding to these issue. i've read from different forums from different sites that a lot of same issue is happening to same brand and model yet all of these haven't responded even a single solution and that's really frustrating.
[XPERIA X10 General] mansisingh:
i have the same issue phone turns on on some point but battery keeps on 0% even if i charge it for more than 2 hours it doesnot goes past 0%..............I tried the genuine charger and everything
[XPERIA X10 General] killerskincanoe:
i am in the same boat. had more than 70% when mine died... now all it does is the flashing light thing...

i kno the usb port works b/c ONE time out of probably about a 100 that i've tried, it actually worked and brought me to the charging battery screen then immediately died again...

i can't seem to get the phone to go to xRecovery OR boot into flash mode...

this is all very upsetting... :( what to do?

the method here doesn't resolve anything,but if you want the green,just plug the cable with hold back button and insert your dead battery.

please ive got the same problem, tried your steps but when i yank the battery out and connect the charger i don't get a green led????
[XPERIA X10 General] epulrevo:
If you got three red blinking led, thats mean your battery totally out. U need to charge your phone before turn it on again. If it doesnt work. Just get new battery.

[XPERIA X10 General] Dr Goodvibes:
Battery goes into protected sleep.

Gosh, this is still going.

OK, lets understand the problem and then look at a solution.

Problem

The battery has discharged to such a level that it has gone into sleep mode and the battery protection circuit has effectively turned the battery off to protect itself and/or the phone has it's own protection mode and it effectively blocking use of the battery.

This is noted on an XPERIA X10i when a USB/phone charger is attached to the phone and you see a red blinking light, but it does not charge.

Solution

Jump start the battery.

To do this I use a Samsung 5V 2A output USB adapter, but any high Amperage charger would do, but must be 5Volts.

I plug it in with the phone completely dead and after a few seconds, the phone powers up and begins to charging with 1% charge noted.

I have observed that the XPERIA X10i has a max amperage input of around 500mAh so a 1A or 2A charger makes no difference.

Most Computer USB 2.0 ports do not provide the maximum 5V 500mA output and that goes for some Sony chargers too, so they'll probably never be able to 'jump start' a Li-ion/Li-polymer battery.

I have a Sony DK10 Media Dock and it was not able to 'start' the battery charging and it just remained with a red flashing light.

It has also been suggested and I have verified, that if you plug the phone into a Sony supplied charger and leave it for a few hours without touching it, a serviceable battery will recover and begin to recharge. I'm to impatient for this approach, but I can say it works and after some time the red flashing light will switch to a solid red light. :o

Not all batteries can be recovered this way and some will be beyond recovery and just need to be replaced (or professionally recovered)

If a battery has been left in a 'protected circuit sleep'(no charge) state for some weeks, it's probably permanently damaged and shouldn't be used.

I also have a Sony EP800 charger which provides an output of 5.0V 850mA and I have used it to recover a 'dead' (red flashing light) battery. Mostly, I just use my Logitech 5.15V/1A adapter which does the trick in a matter of seconds to start charging from 1% up.

Batteries should be stored at about 70% charge and NEVER let to go lower than 5-10% charge

Hi folks,

I have an HTC Desire running InsertCoin HD/Z port 1.8h ROM at the moment. I have just bought a Motorokr S9-HD and so far it's working reasonably well.

The major bug I have with this is the music control feature. It seems to start Meridian player and control that instead of the default HTC Music player I have already running. It has a weird effect of both music players streaming two different songs at the same time! Ever heard Evanescence and Ottmar Liebert playing at the same time? Not nice!

Anyone else encountered this problem with the S9-HD or any other bluetooth headset?

Thanks,

D.
[Desire Accessories] chattyuk:
I installed the new android music played on my desire and noticed if I'm using the default player and use the controls on my pair of s9s it controls the new player.
[Desire Accessories] danyw:
That sounds promising - where can I find this music player, and does it have widget for the default HTC lock screen?

Thanks.
[Desire Accessories] ph03:
Try the PowerAmp music player app, it has a dedicated BT button management and I'm loving it with my Motorila S9.

I flashed liberty 1.5 on my gfs droid x. Now her camera doesn't work and the music player says it doesn't support the format for music she purchased from amazon mp3. Suggestions? Thoughts? I tried a full wipe to no avail

SOLUTION

I did a full wipe and flashed an update.zip (by materstock?/team black hat) that contained the latest ota updated radio, kernel, bootloader, etc...I was concerned that the kernel version appeared to be the same as before...hadn't bricked it yet (and would buy her the thunderbolt if I did) so pushed forward...

Reactivated phone with verizon and then tested camera and mp3. Works

"Honey, I flashed the stock moto software back to your phone - everything works now. Do you want to keep this or try liberty"

"Does this have blur on it?"

"Yeah..."

"I don't want blur"

I trained her well in the ways of droid, huh?

Long story short I reflashed liberty restored backed up apps and everything works. 1400 on quadrant..its not the 2800 I get on my g2 with cm7 but a good bit better than stock droid x (and undervolted too).
[Droid X General] SysAdmin-X:
Was she on the 2.3.15 OTA update or 2.3.34 OTA. If her phone wasnt on the latest update then it may have some missing library files.
[Droid X General] PalmerCurling:
ive had one serious issue since installing liberty- it constantly will randomly reboot. ive had to switch to fission as fission is the only one that runs nicely for me with minimal blur but has the blur camera.
[Droid X General] owenbeals:
I installed 1.5 on day one. I'm also getting random reboots. Its only happened twice. Other than that best rom available! I'm already excited about next update!
[Droid X General] sundar2012:
I just flashed the 2.3.40 update.zip...what kernel version should I see?

HDMI Out

I love everything about this except I can't push the video out through the HDMI. Is there a work around or should it be working and I need to reflash?
[Droid X General] cryogenic666:
To my knowledge none of the AOSP roms do HDMI out. I do believe at one point there was an app in the market that reportedly would send video out via HDMI, but I never used it.
[Droid X General] typo13:
i wish this would of worked for me. I tried everything to get 1.5 to work on my phone but have had nothing but random reboots. liberty 1.0 worked like a champ.

I tried the following loading my .340 rooted back up and loading liberty 1.5 , loading maderstock340 and loading liberty1.5 of course with doing a factory reset before loading liberty each time. My next try will be loading maderstock340, rooting, loading rom manager, and making sure i don't allow Google to load my backed up apps thats the only thing i can think of that might be causing an issue and has been done each time liberty 1.5 was loaded. If this don't work i will be forced to roll back to stock or look for another rom.

Any insight on what im trying would be greatly appreciated.

well it seems google automatically restores your apps when you do a factory reset.... Can any confirm that this might be the root of my issues?
[Droid X General] rocko73:
Not everything blur is bad. There are a few blur apps that are just better than what is out there now or work better with the X IMO. Camera being one of them. That is what is so great about the Liberty Toolbox, makes it easy to add back the blur apps.
[Droid X General] yoBROitsJOE:
Helpp with Liberty

I recently just got Liberty. Only problem im having is with my contacts. Most of them got deleted except for the ones that were backed up to google, which was the ones i added while i owned my X. I gave up on restoring them but the rom wont even let me edit my contact pages...

Anyone know if how to fix this. Any help is appreciated!

Vcard .vcf

You should have done a Vcard or .vcf back up to your sd card that way after you flash the new rom you can restore from the sdcard

I want to do some Android development and I currently have access to a Vaio running Vista Home Premium and a MacBook Pro running Leopard. I was considering installing Linux or Ubuntu on my Vaio, is this a good idea? What are the perks to an open source OS (I can only imagine after seeing what Linux based Android OS is capable of)
[Android Software Development] martino2k6:
I don't think there's any as far as Android development is concerned. ADB and Eclipse run on Windows just as fine as they do on Linux, and if you need any GNU tools there's always Cygwin.

I develop under Linux myself, but that's just because it's my main OS (after you get around all the problems and learn how to use it basic tasks become quicker by a fair amount). If I were using Windows, I doubt I would bother putting Linux on my machine just for Android development.

Either way, it's up to you to try and see whichever is more comfortable for you.
[Android Software Development] jbraucht:
I like the spirit of Linux. Microsoft is a soul sucking evil, not to mention Vista drains ungodly resources just to idle. If I load Ubuntu will it wipe my hd like any other OS? I don't have an external at the moment, is it possible to make a small storage partition that won't get touched?

Sent from your girlfriend's Captivate
[Android Software Development] martino2k6:
It all depends on how you partition your HDD. If you have enough free space you can just shrink your Vista partition and install Ubuntu alongside it in a separate partition thus leaving your Windows untouched. Hit Google with something like "installing Ubuntu after Vista" and you'll get many useful guides.

Just note that after installing Ubuntu you might need a lot of coffee, many hours, or days, and lots of head bashing against the table before you will get everything to work as you'd like :) After that you'll be free again... totally free, until you decide to upgrade to a newer release :p
[Android Software Development] jbraucht:
now you're scaring me. i have my vaio open in front of me and all i can think is "remember how much stumbling through freeing the captivate made you a crazy person? just wait."
[Android Software Development] yentlequible:
Now I'm getting tempted to wipe my old XP computer and stick Linux on it. Could be fun to learn.
[Android Software Development] ramdroid77:
You can boot Ubuntu from CD-ROM or USB stick if you want to try it out. Of course it's a lot slower than a full installation but at least it won't touch your harddisc! Check out the Ubuntu site for instructions.

I have two laptops at home and in the meanwhile I'm running Ubuntu on both of them. The first one is dual booting with Windows 7 (in case I want to do some gaming) and on the second one I totally wiped out Windows!!!

I never did any Linux before but so far I didn't run into any problems at all. Ubuntu is working smooth directly after installation. No problem to connect to WLAN (just as easy as on Windows 7) and downloading apps, development tools, and whatever from Ubuntu software store is just as easy as on Android!

For Android app development you don't necessary need any Linux. But if you want to play with the NDK then you might want to know that there's no Google support for Windows, so Linux is recommended here. If you want to compile the Android OS itself then a Linux machine is more suitable as well.

On Windows there's still the possibilty to use some Cygwin emulation or whatever but I never tried it myself, instead I thought for myself: I want to do Linux or I don't want to do Linux?

If you are more comfortable with a Linux PC then you'll also get a better understanding on the way Android is working in case you are interested in the internals, file system, shell, etc.
[Android Software Development] martino2k6:
Haha, well maybe I was a bit too harsh. Really depends how anal you are about things working properly :)

I have faith in my ability to fix anything. I can't change the boot options on my vaio tho, I can't get to the right menu

[Android Software Development] monoxide.tryst:
I recommend ubuntu. Compared to earlier years, almost everything just works out of the box, very basic and easy. You can load up a live cd/usb, install along side your current os with a very small partition size [I use about 8g out of my 120g hdd] because ubuntu is smart enough to read ntfs file systems, so it will be able to read anything that is on the windows partition as well. It will automatically install grub, allowing you to pick between os's when you boot, and everything is swell. Though i would upgrade to windows 7 first, as vista = crap
[Desire General] jayd95:
So I rooted my phone using unrevoked and all was fine, flashed a few roms and kernals, and i wanted to create an ext partition so i formatted the 8gb micro sd card and used easus to try and seperate it, this did not work so i reformatted it using android, i coppied all files back over and went into recovery to try a diffrent rom ( Currently on oxygen v2.0 RC7) but when i went to choose a zip file clockworkmod showed up saying no files found even though all the files are visible in android and astro, so i reformatted again using android and windows same problem both times, so i thought it might be clockworkmod problem, so i tried to reflash it and didnt work again, so i tried flashing the amon ra recovery but that just didnt flash at all (using unrevoked) when i came back onto oxygen v2.0 , superuser permissions does not work and fc's all the time so i cannot use rom manager or any terminal console

I havent used darkys rom before but just from reading his post it says it will wipe your phone unless you already have a previous darky rom installed. So that means it will factory reset and therefore yes you will lose your APN settings. APN settings are only for data and mms. voice will always work.

However, APNs are easily put back - just search google for your providers APN settings.

As some of you know I've been having major issues with my phone. I finally got them sorted out by wiping my phone and restoring a previous nandroid. I decided to update my Recovery Mod while I was at it. The update was successful, so I tried to reboot into recovery mode.

[G2 and Desire Z General] androidfeen809:
This is a thread to share our thoughs on how would we like our next G2 device to be.

I would love another htc G1 sequel, I'm really feeling these new metal designs, htc keep it up. Would love a G3 with near the same design as the G2 and similar to the htc surround with an 3.8 screen, these are the 2 htc designs I love the most. Also the trackpad should be kept with the design, an 8 megapixel cam wouldn't sound bad either and the same hinge design, except with a loose one, make this one tight htc LOL. Btw I been hearing they fixed the hinge already in the newer batches this year not that I care but I been hearing that a lot.

So what you guys think?

Yea with the keyboard tho cuz a G3 without a keyboard is not a G3 LOL about the 4.3 I doubt it cuz if its a keyboard phone the screen wouldnt go as big as 4.3 especially htc, cuz imagine how heavy would it be lol and that's the only thing I dislike about the G2

What about a completely metal phone? Absolutely everything, even the keys on the keyboard.
[G2 and Desire Z General] guitarfreak846:
To be honest. I think the G2 from a design standpoint is one of the best. My imaginary G3 would have:

The same type of aluminum design, but as thin as it can be

A Five-row keyboard (number keys!)

A front-facing camera for video chat

4 inch Super AMOLED 2 display (perfect size, not too big, but definitely not small)

A Dual-Core or Quad-Core processor (we should have Quad-Core phones by next year)

An upgraded rear camera with 1080p recording with a good audio codec (not the crap that comes in all HTC phones now that sounds like a metal in a washing machine)

Stereo Speakers (the iPhone has had it for years)

At least 16GB of internal memory (and of course an external microSD slot)

Thoughts? It sounds impossible, but by the end of next year (which would follow the G-Series' two year cycle), this would be VERY possible.
