Xperia X10 Issues List

The problem with turning off "MMS and Data" is that you loose ALL DATA coming in. No EDGE or 3G. I find the X10 pointless without any data bc one of its biggest selling features is the Social updates.

I had the HTC Dream, Magic and Milestone. All 3 were able to switch to EDGE connectivity to save battery.

I love the X10, but it's poor battery performance is really getting to me.
 
Just found a way to turn on 2G (EDGE). Download "Network" app. WIth it, you can choose GSM only which will turn on EDGE and still give you data. :D
 
Hi,

This is a beautiful app to customize the home screen and many more. There are two ADW versions, (Donut & normal). Xperia X10 supports only Donut. Not supporting the newer version :( The newer version has more customizable.

Anyways xperia x10 can have the new version of ADW Launcher?

Regards,

The X10 won't be able to support the newer version of ADW.Launcher until after the Android OS has been updated to 2.x sometime this fall (assuming no ROMs available for those who root). Until then, you'll have to stick with the version for Donut.
 
Hi, in India, there was a minor update on the Air early this week (Sunday July 11, 2010). Forum spoke that this minor update has improved the performance of TimeScape and MediaScape and overall system performance. My simple worry is, when SE/Android sends any update, will there be not any official papers as to what does this update carry? Should we dig ourselves in the forum to know what are the updates?

Android/SE, could you please keep the information posted in official website, as well as those who are registered users in SE website, can get email at least.

By the way, I have seen quite a improved performance after the update (R2BA023). But I am facing serious issue after the update. Could this be resolved immediately:

Earlier when you plug your ears with earphone and hear music, and when any incoming call comes, the phone rings and you can hear the ringtone in the earphone and the music is paused. But now after the update, the music is paused, and the phone alone rings. The earphone does not output the ringtone. Looks aweful. Could this be fixed immediately?

Model Number X10i
Firmware Version 1.6
Baseband Version 1.1.27
Kernel Version 2.6.29-rel semc-android@SEMC #2
Build Number R2BA023

Thank you,

Thanks, and by the way, is there any way, we can customize the dockbar? I do not want to see the dialer and browser app on it.
 
first post! New to the android platform, was using the iphone before i picked up the X10 from rogers. overall i like the android platform, but the X10 not so much, sold it already and looking forward to buy the milestone XT720 soon. Here's what i didnt like:

- call quality was terrible! always had issues with hearing the other person clearly even with the call volume turned up all the way.
- Resistive touchscreen/no multi touch: had issues typing on the keyboard, sometimes the it didnt even register touch input at all. and i absolutely hate the resistive touch screen.
- phone started to lag a LOT after 2 days of use to the point where i could not even make any phone calls. that just kept getting worse, even after rebooting the phone was still the same.

so there you have it, my short affair with android and X10. like i said, I am looking forward to buying the XT720 soon as it has everything I am looking for (capacitive touchscreen/multi touch/camera, 2.1 eclair). the X10 "COULD" have been such a better phone. I can over look some of the minor stuff but not being able to hear properly and not being able to make calls is just a NO.

I haven't been able to figure how to change what icons are there in the dockbar, and I too did not want to see the adw dialer or browser, so I just opted to turn off those Action Buttons in the settings (they're abbreviated LAB and RAB for left and right action button). After that, I set the app drawer background to being disabled, then made the status bar only appear if I swiped up on a homescreen. This, in my opinion, made the homescreen look a lot nicer and allowed more of my wallpaper to be seen (one of my pictures). If I find a way to change what you can put in the dockbar for the Action Buttons, I'll post it on here (unless someone can tell us how).

I'm sorry to hear that you've had so many problems with the X10 but I just wanted to clarify a few points for you.

-the X10 DOES have a capacitive screen, the iPhone has a resistive screen. Maybe you got them confused? Not sure about the screen on the Milestone so I'll just take your word for it.

-the camera on the X10 is miles ( ;) ) better than the camera on the Milestone.

I understand your problems though, I just wanted to clarify on the capacitive screen point and I couldn't understand why you would prefer the camera on the Milestone to that of the X10. But, hey, it's your call either way. Hope you have better luck with the Milestone!

Actually, it's a TFT capacitive touchscreen. NOT Resistive.

sorry guys i think i am still confused on what the screens are called, but what i was trying to get at was I like the kind of screen on the iphone (little effort but not usable with gloves vs X10- more effort but usable with gloves), if that makes sense lol

regarding the camera, I am talking about the new milestone XT720 with xenon flash and HD recording, not the milestone (droid).

You just open your app menu and long hold an app and drag over the shortcuts. pretty much how you place an app on your home screen!
 
Thanks, Man!!

You know had I just read through the description of the app on the Market again, it would have told me the same thing. :D

Oh well. Thanks again for the help!

i dunno why u have problems ... i use my x10 while wearing my motorcycle gloves all the time..
 
I have an x10 mini pro and I'm finding that you can't actually delete apps =/

I've gone settings > applications > manage applications, and it even says there that you should be able to delete the apps, but when i go in to each one there's no option to delete/uninstall and bringing up the menu does nothing, literally. :(
 
I am from India. I had my phone updated on the AIR with the new version RBxxxx23. This really sucks!

Everything seemed fresh and new in the beginning. As the days went, I am seeing the problem creeping very badly. To new few that is in my hotlist:

Xperia frequently freezes
1. SD Card not reading properly
2. When hearing music in earphone, SMS ringtone is heard in the earphone with song still playing
3. Phone ringtone never hears in the earphone while listening to music. It is heard outside

In the previous version, when I hear music in earphone, and when I get a SMS or Phone call, the music stops and I hear the ringtone or notification in my earphone.

What are these mishaps? Will this be fixed in priority? Is there any ways to roll back to previous version till we get a proper fix?

I travel daily, and while travelling I just cant hear the ringtone ringing in my earphone while driving. (don

You can't delete/ uninstall stock apps. Are you saying you can't delete third pay apps?

No just the stock ones. With Vodaphone it's come with 5 game demos, and at least 10 applications that are just.. well useless crap. And they take up space, and have given me a whole 6 pages of apps when I just don't want them.

Only thing you can do if the carrier does not allow you to uninstall stock apps is to root your phone where you have super user access.

Hey guy's, 1st post here, so go easy on me!!

Here is my take on this.

1- Absence of "Multi-touch" has really made people change their decision - In this day & age, with the Blackberry Storm 2, Nexus One, iPhone & even the HTC Hero all with Multi-Touch, its a shame to see Sony lagging as usual. It would be great to zoom in & out of web-sites, or use Google Maps.... but hey

2- Some people are worried about the screen resolution - Screen looks great to me!! It way not have the colour depth that the HTC Desire packs, but it still looks sharp!!

3- Android 1.6 is an issue as well - 2.1 will be available 2nd half of the year according to Sony.

4- My own issue. The X10 does not have a flash player!! Although Adobe have confirmed it will launch flash for Android, it will only work on Android 2.1 or above. This leaves me to think us X10 users are going to be left in the cold.
Click to expand...

1. First off let me say this regarding the phone's OS, its limited to 65k due to that being what 1.6 can handle but the phone overall supports 16m.

2. the phone will get a 2.1 update in september dependant on the network
 
In my view the Xperia X10 was marketed as the phone for those of us who like to social network. Therefore I am a little perplexed as the Twitter App for Android is cannot be downloaded onto the X10 because it isn't running 2.2! I think the X10 had the potential to be big but Sony has let it down with delayed software upgrades.

I have found since I first got the phone the battery life has improved slightly. I listened to some music today for about 7 hours and it did take about 50% out of the battery, however it is still going now.
