Hi all, I've got a strange problem that I haven't found posted here before, sometimes, not always, when one of my contacts calls me the phone will display the number instead of the persons name.
Has anyone seen this before ? am I doing something daft ? and / or is there a way round this.
TIA
from what i understand sometimes it gets closed down and is automaticly restarted after awhile
showing that odd icon shortly
if you recieve a call while it's shut down then it dont display
If you have a problem and it doesn;t load, then go to /Windows folder find IA_Caller_exe make a shortcut to it and place it either in the Start menu folder, or the Star up folder (if itsn;t already there)...
When you see your problem hit the Start menou shortcut and it is once again reloaded...
It is not a solution, but still an answer to your problem...

i think it have something to do with the 32process thing on all the devices maybe the new rom have more processses and so have to close stuff down more often
I got the same issue when I installed the Microsoft Voice Command 1.5. It announce the name but I did not see the name displayed during the incoming call. I disable the name announcement features from MS Voice Command and now everything is fine.
My Caller id is always show when someone calling me..
but all times the Answer Call and Ignore ..are on the photo!! it is really annoing me.
When i do a preview in photo contact it shows all perfect..but then.. :?
What version are you using guys?
My os Win2k3Se 2.20
Any solution to solve Caller ID?

Hi,
I was missing some small clocks that do not block the TF3D background too much.
To solve my "problem" I just created two versions in black and white. One with a semi transparent clock background and one without a clock background.
The actual numbers are a little far away from eachother but experimenting getting them closer gave some nasty image conflicts. If anyone has an solution let me know and I update the clock.
If you are looking for any other color let me know and I get it done for you.
*********************
EDIT: 23 Nov 2008
Version 1.1
Available colors in zip:
Black
White
Updates:
Used a bit better readable font
Updated positioning
Fixed Lower Curtain error
To Do
Change distance between numbers
Make Semi Transparent flip smaller
thank you very much
Very nice but...
... I can't get it to work with Sprint theme. Still have the Sprint clock BG and the : between the numbers
hi thanks for ur clock
But I got one problem after installing ur clock, the touch flo bar at the bottom turned into a thinner style after I have installed ur clock. how can i change it to normal style? thanks
The idea of smaller clock is brilliant, but these are just too small
@g0mib0y
Like mentioned in the readme you should use the diamnond config tool from susilange to restore to original files from you rom. If you do a quick search on the forum you should be able to find the tool to restore your TF3D. Before you restore can you post a screenshot for me to see what happened as it works good on my end. I would like to fix it for eveyone.
@jonson10
I guess that it works different for the sprint rom. I will take a look at this and see how others have get it to work for the sprint ROM.
@usper
I'll take a look at making them a little bigger for you

Find the files that are in the zip in your \Windows folder on your device.
Delete them and soft-reset. They will restore from the ROM.

@ dickenz
Thanx for the follow-up. this is indeed the best thing to do when the diamond config does not do the trick. Weird however seeing that the config tool deletes all the manilla files and restarts so it will be reinstalled from the ROM and should solve the problem.
@ jonson10
I'll take an other look at the issue somewhere today. Which clock did you use the clock with the glassclock background or the one without background? Let me know so I can take a better look at it. There are some files in the glassclock BG that could cause this but I need to know for sure you are using this
i like the idea of a smaller clock, but with the border around the clock still being the same size it eliminates any reason i had to download it i dont suppose you could reduce the size of the border around so the calender etc are pushed up more into the center of the screen?

Works fine with original manilla theme
these look really good, but they are too spaced out, is there anyway to get the clock that size but with less space between the numbers?
another idea i have is, if you used the ones with no background and removed the numbers too!!
NOONE has made an invisible clock yet and it would be the best way to get a full wallpaper
i would really like the invisible clock.
would this be possible?
thanks for your help and your small clock <- EDIT i have just realised how bad that sounded lol sorry
i like your clocks however i am having trouble installing it..i am using Resco explorer to copy the files in the windows directory but i get the following error:
First it says that the destination file is in ROM and that i can damage my system if i continue. After i click on yes i get the following:
Cannot move file xxxxxx. The file already exists.
i tried searching for this but i couldnt succeed until now...
cant anyone help?
Created some updates on the Small Clock You can down load version 1.1 from the first post. Update history is also listed there.

Did you setup the resco explorer to overwrite all files? You can do this under Menu\Options\General than under the tab Files check all boxes and select Copy.
Let me know if that did the trick.
thats how it was set up but it didnt want to work..anyway, i used total commander and it worked..
Ok good to see it was solved any way. It is weird as I use the Resco myself and do not have this issue :-S
Anyway it is solved so that is the most important
Really great work!
What I would really love, is the transparrent one, but with white digits insted of black.
Could you do it?
Pretty please!!!

Quite a cool I phone looking app. How hard would it be for someone to make this a panel?
I guess really the question should be... Why don't you just buy an iPhone? My guess is this is just a today screen plugin, similar to TF3D. If that is the case, running it should be about the same at TF3D on the X1. I know some people in the Diamond forum were trying to get ifonz to work.
Jep, same thought! Go und lock yourself up with an iPhone...
i really dont get why anyone on earth likes the iphone. but whatever.
Well why not a iphone lookalike panel when the tf3d seems very popular,it´s all about to replace/complement the panels we already have onboard as i see it..
iphone is a nice phone and i cant say i havent put iphone like apps on my 6800 and thought about it for my tp but i thought again and whats the point i may as well have just gotten an iphone. its probably best to get apps from iphone (if at all possible) instead of the flashy looking ui. it gets boring after a while. not taking anything away from the people that develop those programs because its something i cant do and it amazes me. so keep up the good work but just not for me at least not for extended periods.
you could ask the author
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=436656&highlight=ifonz
Does this install as a Today plugin or an app itself?
Oops... found the answer. It ain't a Today plugin. So guess it somehow replaces the today screen? And that why TS's there asking about if anyone can convert it to a panel?
I find this is a discussion worth picking up again! so has anybody put some thought to it?
I tried the latest version of ifonz ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=436656) and it works pretty good with full landscape support and loads of customisation options.
Now ... I know nothing about programming .. but is it hard to make it come up as a panel?
The way it works now it is an .exe which u need to start manually (similarly to the T3D before the panel .cab came out) ... so what does it take to get a panel .cab for this little app?
I thought about contacting the author but then again I dont see why this should be his business ... he probably doesnt even have the Xperia!
So any ideas on this?
thx
I'd think the one most able to come up with a panel for this at the moment should be the guy who did the panel for TF3D.
I tried installing the ifonz using the .exe but they mentioned about throwing an exception?
I've searched almost everywhere for an answer but have yet to find one. I still can't install iFonz on the XPERIA. I was wondering, do I download the files on the phone itself then run the exe (if that's possible) OR run it on the desktop/laptop with the XPERIA connected via activesync which I have been trying to do. But on my Laptop, I get an error that it has failed and on my desktop it says something about an exception.
no u are supposed to install it on the xperia ... maybe u r doing the same mistake that I did the first time I tried to install ... this may sound stupid but u need to copy the .zip onto your xperia and then actually extract the files before u can install them!
Reason I m saying this is because when u click on .zip after u copied it onto your xperia it will automatically change folder and show u a list of all the files that are in that .zip.
intuitively u would probably click the .exe right away however if u do this u get an error saying that the file cannot be installed for unknown reasons etc. if you however, extract the files to a folder of your choice then u can click the .exe and the installation works just fine
alternatively, u may just be needing to install microsoft net framework 3.5 which u can download for free on the microsoft website .. if you search this forum u will find a link to it ..
sorry for late reply, hope that helps
Ah thank you! Yes, I have installed Microsoft Net Framework (I did do my research haha). I will try it out now!
Okay, now that I have ifonz I realised that I don't like it. Worst of all, when I switch on my phone, it starts off in the ifonz page. And so I deleted the ifonz folder. But now, when I switch on my phone, they mention an error as they are unable to find ifonz.exe. How do I get rid of this annoying pop up?
Hi folks! Been Browsing your pages a lot these days and I like your stuff. SO I thought I'd sign up and give something back to you: A custom startup animation for the X1. Put the file into Windows folder (overwriting the original) and there you go. Warning: You cannot do this over ActiveSync! I'm not sure if it works with the built-in file explorer, I did it with RESCO Explorer, works fine after confirmation. Make sure you have a backup copy of the original file somewhere. I'd be glad to hear some comments Tell me if you like it or not and WHY. If you don't have any idea what this is gonna do: It will change the animation right after the Sony Ericsson logo when you power it up. Sony Ericsson logo before and Windows logo after remain untouched.
EDIT: Just found out that I have to ZIP the file... Otherwise it becomes JPG. So Download, Unzip, and THEN copy.
Well I kinda made one too. Just for fun.
If the startup animation doesn't show up, download the ALLOWANIM.ZIP file, extract and merge the registry settings in your x1.

Nice idea to refer to the startup logo
And another attempt by me, this one's a little bit more exciting and I've stolen your idea about fading the logo PSD this time included.
The animation goes like:
Fade out SE logo
Show "Sony Ericsson" text with a shiny animation
Fade in white glowing "X1"
Fade out glowing "X1"
Hope you like it, haven't tested it yet on my X1.
There's been many downloads already, please post some feedback!

To be honest I find that huge X1 to be annoying lol
PS: Is anyone even liking our efforts or is this a huge waste of everyone's time? Let us know...
A video or image would be nice during the start up.. im lazy to install then uninstall if i dont like it

@ DeeChan: How come you don't like the big X1? Cuz it's X1 or because of the design?
good idea to start this thread!
here is my art, hope you'll like it
.jpg is a preview
Cool! But I would prefer it if the "Powered by Windows Mobile" etc were present all the time, and the animaiton could be more smooth (Though I'm sure you've invested quite a bit of time into this... Respect!).
i like the start up logo with the paper plane...Genius
But it doesnt let me replace the original file using the in built Phone file explore.
Wot else can i use besides resco??
to Firefall!
I'll create Art 1.1 pic tomorrow, there is too much work now.
to indy.89
try to use Total Commander. but Resco is the best
glad to see you liked my work guys. thnx a lot!
my x1 only has SEMC2904.bmp in windows folder, im using resco.
so tried to change name of SEMC1904.gif to it and says cant overwrite because its part of rom.
what am i missing ? please help

Sigh: neways 1904 is the animation, and part of rom but it won't do anything but play at the boot so safe to replace from rom.
The 2904 is part of the static splash screen with the big green SE logo. Replacing it won't damage anything. Safe to replace.
If you want bootscreen change, just replace welcomehead.192.png, again safe to change Have fun.

So sexy! Now one last thing: I'd make it stop some time once the I SE live is there, a still picture for say 1 sec. Otherwise it will directly go away during boot. Nice work! What apps did you use?
Thank you ))
I've used Photoshop and then Gif Animator
Here is the source files (PSD and UGA).

can someone help me please, what to do
Hi there, sorry if I should have put this somewhere else but I'm kind of new on here...
Anyway, I've been using my X1 for about 6 months now without any real problems, until recently.
Without warning, and seemingly without reason, the MediaExperience Panel [which I used all the time] has vanished.
Its no long on the list to select a Panel in the panels thing [despite the fact that I don't think there was even an option to remove it], and if I go into: my device/program files/panels/mediaexperiencepanel there seems to be a lot less in there than there is in the folders for the other panels.
Inside the MediaExperience folder is only 1 other folder named Resources, and in side that is only 1 file, named MxpDatabase (8.16M).
I assume there should be more in there, or maybe not, I dont know!
If anyone can help or has an idea as to what happened or might be done I would be very gratefull.
Also, if I am indeed missing some files from in there (though god knows where they would have gone), if someone could put them up for me to download, or even the whole Panel again for me to re-install, I would be even more greatfull...
Thanks in advance guys!

Chek under you uninstall list and see if it is there - if not then its been uninstalled it it is then i suggest you uninstall it and download the cab here to re-install it - that should fix your problem:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=498934
edit: looks like the link there is down so i uploaded it my self: http://rapidshare.com/files/249992273/X1_Panel_Media_Xperience.CAB
Thanks!
Yeah it seemed to have totally uninstalled itself.
Anyway, that's totally fixed the problem, I am in your debt my good man!
