Yeah, that is the 2.2 ROM I was talking about. Make sure you install the correct one depending on your baseband.

In order to keep everything, make a backup of your apps using titanium backup. You can then restore your apps after installing this ROM. Thats what I did. :)

Wolfbreak has given another way here:

Ah thanks, I might go for 2.1 cause of the camcoder.. Any chance of a fix for it coming in 2.2?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gil2004xp:
No fix for now until the bootloader has been cracked, you can give it a shot to see the difference of 2.1 and 2.2 but you need to backup in xrecovery so you can go back to your previous ROM.

I've been using Bluesparks before when I tried Wolf's 2.2 and decided to keep it, only the camcorder is not working fine but you can use an app from Market although not as good quality as the stock. ;)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alamode:
I installed the 2.2 Rom from Wolfsbreak. A couple of things, I cannot seem to upgrade the market? I downloaded the .zip file and installed it using xRecovery but i see the same old market? Secondly i dont see any significant increase in performance ! :S
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gil2004xp:
You need to log in first using the included market then reboot in xRecovery, install custom zip the new Market, then install custom zip again if you want the Blue Transparent Market. :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alamode:
And the performance? It seems pretty much the same.. I only see a difference when i remove the live wallpaper.. Live wallpaper makes it a little stutter.. If i put a wallpaper its pretty smooth..

Change the sysctl settings. Also, install set CPU and set a high/low CPU profile for screen on or off.

At least somebody has been hired to start saying something :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] Crimson Lotus:
Damn you Carriers!

I sure hope so...

This is just what I expected, But I don't think it can penetrate the people's stupidity. Hopefully this can SHUT some of the people UP.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vel0city1:
At least someone at Microsoft said something about the updates, even though it doesn't say a whole lot.

Lets hope they become a bit more vocal about things, instead of relying on rumors to become news.
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
His post was full of words, but didn't really tell us anything at all. I think he's probably a politician at heart.
[Windows Phone 7 General] pillsburydoughman:
1. they test updates at ms

2. carriers also test the updates, some carriers take longer than others

3. carriers can request a certain date updates will be allowed. e.g ATT can send an update a week earlier than Verizon (you will get your update but carrier decides when)

4. updates can sometimes include firmware from specific phone manufactures

5. updates are targetted to specific phones. just because LG phones got an update does not mean HTC phones will get an update. see point (2)

6. the snafu about the last update made them pause to make sure this update goes well.

7. The next update is copy and paste, improved market search and other improvements

what do you mean he didn't say anything?
[Windows Phone 7 General] sure haven't:
Wow, I'll be honest, I'm both speechless, and pretty much satisfied.

This is exactly what they should have done. Wow. I'm seriously blown away that Microsoft actually did this. Very impressive.

Good enough for me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] akachay:
i'm still not satisfied with these explanations. these excuses are to buy time and make microsoft look good. microsoft test update in lab > manufacture and chipmaker test their firmware > carrier test it on their network > users get update. they went thru at least 3 phases of testing and tell me none knows of the issue with samsung wp7? they were way behind schedule and have to rush the update so it wasn't properly test. NoGo was supposed to be out january. still NoShow.
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
perhaps, but given your logic shouldn't the manufacturer (that being samsung) had picked it up when they were given the update and told MS about it before it hit a whole lot of samsung users? MS don't create the phones themselves (unlike Apple, which everyone seems to be comparing MS' update system to), so therefore the complexity of the updates in general are increased to a great magnitude with the additional layers that they need to help satisfy.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Bleak Morn:
There's a step missing for a good test - between network testing and end users, a quick release to power user early adopters needs to happen.

These are people who ideally have the technical proficiency to help troubleshoot any issues encountered (in other words, they know how to file a bug report, and also how to follow troubleshooting instructions from MS).

Whiny *****es would of course be excluded.

MS used to have a system like this for their MSN software products (such as MSN messenger). I thought it worked really well as a participant, but then they ditched the program - IMHO they invited too many whiny non-technical people and just got sick of placating them.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
I really don't think this addresses the issue. Tell me MS didn't know how this would work from the beginning?? If they did know, why did they advertise the system the way they did? They made frequent and aggressive updating as a main feature of WP7. Yet that "aggressive" updating is more like super timid updating.

Either MS didn't know what it was getting into, or they knew and are trying to blow smoke up our rears.
[Windows Phone 7 General] TOA Duck:
*poots left over smoke out of his arse.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sure haven't:
I would bet money it's the former.

They probably had meetings, layed it all out on spreadsheets, powerpoint presentations, etc. Had engineers give reports. Marketing specialists chime in on what's needed to win. And they thought it would go smooth as butter.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Perlnx:
Ok.. time to give a fack with this guy..
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
So, was there anything we didn't already know?
[Windows Phone 7 General] phoneguy 4567:
The fact that MS had to push a pre update update is amusing, & the update was for every phone not just Samsung. Obviously MS never tested the update process before the launch of WP7. The Samsung issues show that MS & its OEM partners don't communicate well with each other. A good example of this is SD card support, if MS doesn't want it why is it there & how did Samsung get away with putting it in? Is MS not in charge of WP7 & the user experience, which a buggy SD card will impact?
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
Now, that said, I think it's worse than I thought.

So they need to adjust WP7 OS to every device out there, and with approval from carrier?

So, that means.. that this is almost exactly like Android. Or at least seems like Android. They are going to release tons of phones, and then, forget our humble phones.

Really, do you guys think MS is going to worry with an outdated smartphone? That don't even sell in stores anymore?

Crap ;/
[Windows Phone 7 General] pbratton:
After reading some of the comments posted there, it is clear that folks do not understand that the difference between Apple updates and Microsoft updates is that Apple controls the entire chain from nuts and bolts to software. They are updating ONE piece of hardware.

Microsoft is updating MANY DIFFERENT hardware types from many different manufacturers. Thus, 'issues' will occur.
[Windows Phone 7 General] fb401:
With this PR blog post having 100+ replies with more than 90% of them being not positive, and Paul Thurrot's "Still No Update" post (which I'm assuming is what pushed MS to respond) having 150+ replies, maybe they'll finally start to "get it".

But I doubt it...
[Windows Phone 7 General] fb401:
It seems you may not understand why the comparisons are valid. "Chassis 1" was suppose to be MS's answer to Apple so that they, like Apple, could update all phones at once.

Anything extra the OEMs add should be on them (ie. LG with DNLA) and MS should ONLY be responsible for updating the core OS. Acer, Asus, HP and Lenovo all update their own drivers while MS updates Windows. It should be the same exact process with WP7.

BTW, Apple is updating THREE pieces of hardware and many revisions of each. MS is updating ONE uniform OS AND they've been in the mobile OS business since 2003. They should have known how to run things by now.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Bleak Morn:
Also, it's not like MS has no experience here. They've rolled out updates to different hardware types before as part of the Zune updates that have happened occasionally (I think about twice a year, just like Xbox - autumn/spring) since launch.

So yeah, they have carriers in the mix now. That's really the only complexity added over the Zune updates that have been largely trouble-free.
[Windows Phone 7 General] TeNsTrKe15:
hah, no! Apple is basically updating one type of system. the framework in the iphones and ipod touches are alike in way more factors than they are different. because Apple does have control over all aspects dealing with ipods and iphones, they can produce updates quicker. with Microsoft, they may be dealing with one OS but there are numerous carriers and operators (htc, samsung, lg, etc.) whereas Apple deals with not as many carriers and just one operator (Apple). it's because of this that Apple can roll out numerous updates faster than Microsoft.

you do realize that it has been stated that the framework for wp7 is much more complex than android and iphone. wp7 is in the infant stage and finding errors will take more time than that of android and iphone. but once Microsoft is able to find these errors, they will be able to spot them quicker and fix them faster.

wp7 by far the best device i've ever had!
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
True, but they advertised the system as having aggressive and plentiful updates as a feature. They should not have sold 2 million WP7 devices with that advertisement if there are going to be issues like we are seeing.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jasongw:
About damn time :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] PieOfJustice:
Apple has about the same number of carriers that MS does. Also while you say "Apple is basically updating one type of system" so is MS. All the WP7 have been built with the same hardware - minus a few extras that the Manufactures added on. While I understand your point I don't think it's any excuse for MS to fumble the ball as much as they have given that they should have looked at how Apple and Google failed and corrected those wrongs. Instead they are on the same path Apple has encountered by blocking homebrew (Leading to mass piracy) and the same update problems Google has (Leading to frustrated users).
[Windows Phone 7 General] jasongw:
You're absolutely right. And frankly, I feel a little foolish for jumping in to WP7 so soon. I should have just stuck with my iPhone until the second generation of devices hit and MS finally puts the basic features that should have been there on launch day in place.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
I'm saddened at myself for believing MS would do as advertised: Update. I knew when WP7 launched it wouldn't have the features it needs. I followed the news and kept up with it and the only surprise I got when I bought my HD7 on or near launch was the lack of the common TbT voice nav. I was actually more in shock than surprised...my HD2 has it with Bing nav and nearly every other smartphone in existence has it. But the rest of the features I firmly believed would come in a very soon update.

I knew early on how MS was gonna be with WP7 when they announced the Aug/Sep Mango update, which we were all hoping would happen closer to launch, and voiced it. I got criticized and castigated because of it and even received a forum penalty over it and some of those same ppl are now the ones pissed at MS for the very same reasons I was.
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
they may have the same number of carriers but they don't converse with the carriers at all when rolling out updates, they completely skip them. apple are their own OEM as well, unlike microsoft who chose to work with all their OEMs. it definitely isn't an excuse for sure, but the complexity of MS' update process is far greater than that of Apple's or Google's.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
This comes from the windows phone team blog
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
^ not true at all. Why believe the spokesperson anyways? Apple deals with Apple only.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
I'd be more inclined to believe him than you. How do you know what Apple does, do you work there?
[Windows Phone 7 General] efjay:
You're going to believe a spokesperson for the same company that lied about being in control over wp7 updates? Its fairly obvious apple owns their update process end to end, the customary carrier testing delay is non-existent so unless the iphone carriers have suddenly found a way to accelerate time they are either doing minimal testing or not testing at all and apple is pushing updates when they like.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jeffgeno:
Or Apple doesn't announce any updates until after the carriers have tested them.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
No, because if there is a problem the customer just contacts Apple, not the carrier. With WP7 customers wouldn't know who to contact. HTC, AT&T, or Microsoft? Too many parties involved.

What bloat is on a iPhone?
[Windows Phone 7 General] jeffgeno:
What does that have to do with anything? Do you really believe AT&T only sees iPhone updates when Apple pushes them out to everyone else?
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
At&t has no control over it. That's my point, it has nothing to do At&t.
[Windows Phone 7 General] conantroutman:
I'm struggling to understand why everything must end up being compared to apple.

There is already one thread in this section which has gone completely off topic and descended into an apple vs MS debate. I don't think we need another.

Lets try and keep this thread to information pertaining to updates for WP7 please.

Thanks.

[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
Well in the phone world people always compare a smartphone to the Apple offering because it is singularly the most popular smartphone on the market right now. It makes sense since you are benchmarking against something that most people are familiar with. Plus the product is pretty good too.

Now if this was a computer forum you would not draw the same reference to a Mac. I live on a computer forum too and the Mac people stick to their corner.

XDA Developers was a much more peaceful forum when it was WinMo only. Back in the Eten Glofish and HTC Tytan days. I was only a lurker then and I joined a while later when I finally got my HTC Touch.

Ah the good ole days.
[Windows Phone 7 General] conantroutman:
Ok that's fair enough and I can't argue with it.

Whilst I have no issue with the two being compared and the discussion thereof I don't think this thread is the right place for it.

Someone searching for info on WP7 updates may well be led to this thread and the majority of what they will find is of no use to them. This is part of the reason why people get tired of searching before posting and in turn we end up with a more cluttered and unorganised forum.

I don't want to come across as some kind of heavy hand rule obsessed internet rent-a-cop but... well you see what I'm getting at ;)

[Windows Phone 7 General] sylau90:
IMO,PR and customer services are extremely important in this case. M$ case is kind of naive move.

firstly, I have to ask you that do you see any employees of other mobile OSes to explain why their updates got delay?honestly,I never see before.

secondly, if M$ said 11th march update will be released, then that is their responsibility to get everything done. However, now the case was like Customer(teacher) and M$(student),they did not hand in their homework and now they give us reason?So, should we forgive them?honestly...this is not about how much we love android, ios or M$ issue.

I got a question here.

If m$ has to deal with so many parties(OEM,carriers,etc), is that means Android and Apple does not have to deal with them?

I'm kind of pissed of now...M$ said this in their advertisement and presentation,updates are come from us not carrier or OEM??

Therefore, I think there must be something go wrong with the plan,attitude,PR and customer services implemented by M$.

The horror stories you read were either people flashing the wrong firmware (from another device) or using the Phone button in Odin *before* standalone radio files were available. Since DJ05, there have been radio files available to flash, which is what the phone button overwrites, so as long as you can reflash the radio using PDA you're good.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cn2661:
Hi all,

I have got a Tytn II running on AthineOS Lite Rom,

I just wonder if it is possible to set the behaviour of the power button.

As original shipped rom, pressing power button turns into standby mode, which music players continue to work.

However,when I use this rom, whenever I try to turn the screen off + locking the keys by pressing the power button, music player just stops working.

Same to Resco Audio Recorder... When i press the power button to turn my screen off, recording would stop too

I tried Backlight Off programmes, however keys wont lock at the same time.

and I wonder if there is a way, like Reg modification to change how power button works.

Many thanks =]
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Hakim Rahman:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cn2661:
Thanks for quick responce

I am trying the little tool

however, I just manage to map a key to switch screen turning backlights off,

or lock device,

but I cant figure out how can I turn off the screen at the same time hardware keys are locked (just as how power button acts except keeping programs running while screen off)

Please advice, and thanks again mate =]
[HD7 General] carmeng4evr:
I am surprised that I am having difficulties. I never had any major issues with WP7/Zune but i was able to trade my Mytouch 4g for an HD7 with this girl

from craigslist

So you know, I do my usual thing.

Start setting up my emails, downloading my apps

took a few pics of myself(camera still sucks...and now I see what people mean when they say that pink color.)blah blah blah, the basics

Set up my avatar for xbox live

So then i went to go sync the HD7 with Zune so i can sync

all my music as well as my all my pictures

And Zune doesn't recognize the HD7 or see that it's connected.

I hear the noise it makes when you sync it to the computer

and everything yet, it doesn't show the HD7 for me to name

it

I've tried

1)Restarting the phone

2)Putting the usb into various different slots

3)I even created a brand new Zune account

No go....

I would do a factory reset but i will be annoyed if i do that and

then it still is giving me issues and then i have to redownload and

set it all up again....

Any suggestions?

It still shows my HD7 that i had originally...And the last time

i synced which was sometime in FEB
[HD7 General] nick109:
i would guess that it has to do with multiple PC use and multiple HD7s, since you traded it and they likely used Zune themselves, and you used it with another phone before..whatever it is it probably has to do with that

so yea too bad you did all that stuff, you will have to factory reset
[HD7 General] scmurphy13:
Silly question, but have you restarted your computer?

Sent from my HD7 using Board Express
[HD7 General] carmeng4evr:
yeah i restarted it and still had some issues

and then i tried again

i decided to uninstall Zune and reinstall it

still had some issues...

But idk what happened but i was able to finally

start syncing. Idk how i fixed it but its working

now lol
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
The first time an HD7 is introduced to the PC, it takes quite a while for Zune to recognize it. Couple minutes easy. Just gotta let it sit there.
