Hi guys,
as u know know the TF3D by default takes up the 1st panel.
and when i try to use the other panels..i can no longer press the button X... because whenever i do that..the entire Xperia screen goes blank and hangs up. then even the power button doesnt work and i have to remove and reinsert the battery.
what to do?
this TF3D causing major issues.. is it bugged?
Doing a soft reset is way easier...open the battery cover, pull out the pen und put it in the small hole...
Are you using TF3D as panel or on the default today panel? If not already tried, use the TF3D-Pnaleinstaller here ion the forum...
When i try to access the panels, my X1 hangs most of the time as well, using it as the today screen. Is there any fix?
ya i use it as on Today screen.
is there a fix around this?
i disabled it now anywya.
btw does Soft Reset also delete all the data?
"btw does Soft Reset also delete all the data?"
no thats the diff between soft and hard reset
which version r u guys using? I am using beta2 and I dont have any problem switching panels... only flaw I have in the tf3d is I cant add some people to the favorite list for some reason... otherwise everything is working as it should be
Same here
I wanna know if anyone found a fix for this? or at least let us know if you have this issue. This is what I have narrowed it out to.
I'm using <Touch-IT Xperience v2.1> ROM which has TF3D installed by default
The Panel interface(The screen which opens up when i click panel button) works perfect when i disable TF3D in today
Now when I activate it, am able to open the panel interface and choose any other panel.
After this, if i click on the panel button, the x1 just freezes and all i can do is soft reset
Note:- I have no other application running.
If this continues I have to choose either panels or TF3D. I love it when i can use TF3D for daily use and shift to Facebook or media panel when i need them.
I just wanna know of this indeed a bug or am i missing something big
currently 2 versions available
hi,
i too was suffering fromt he same issues and took a while to realize that the tf3d was causing it.
afaik, there are 2 different versions of tf3d (i mean by 2 diff. people) for xperia.
i beleive most of us are using the one titled 'Full manila hd cabs' (or something similar - extremely sorry for not recalling the name of the developer who's made rhe effort to provide it) - and the one experiencing the issue.
there is another version linkd on the xda wiki, will try it now - and update with names of both developers as well as results
again
actually installing TF3D as a panel solved this issue
but since we have the new manila... the panel doesnt work
so we are back to square one... by default the TF3D sit on the today's screen and after that pressing the panel button freezes the phone
And if you choose the new panel with TF3d... it says loading forever
SOmebody please help
I'm an idiot - I can't figure out where the "small hole" for the soft reset is located.
Can someone show me a picture?

hehe... I spent ages trying to figure this one out too...
here's an image I got on Google search..
to access the reset button .. you need to take off the battery cover, pull out your stylus (since that is obstructing the button) and then using the stylus 'poke' into the hole besides the battery.
I find this location - and the need to take off the battery cover - everytime you need to reset very VERY painful

anyone know what would cause this and how to fix it? REALLY annoying. The only things on my today screen are spb whether and tomtom. Nothing exotic. Any ideas?
spb "whether" sounds pretty exotic, where'd you get it from? i only have spb weather... sorry just messing with you ;D
umm.. what do you mean you can't get back to the today screen, are you trying to say nothings loading on it? or apps won't close? Maybe you have to many programs running and they're eating up your memory. Get SPB Pocket Plus or Magic Button and see if that helps.
i have magic button. What i mean is that i can't seem to close apps and get back to the todayscreen. the apps just won't close for some reason.
Try InClose Mobile instead of Magic Button - much better
I have the same problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=275030
But I haven't found a solution for this .....
Remove the plugins one by one.. and determine which one is the one causing the problem.
I'm my case the problem is not related to a today-plugin.
It's just that for some reason it is possible to 'close' the todayscreen when tapping in the right-top corner.
Sometimes it DOES do that and sometimes it WON'T, but I can't figure out the conditions.
Today visible
Is the problem that if you close apps, you see the word Today in the upper left, but the most recently viewed app still shows as the body?
I had this problem, and now don't; I think moving to 2.26 ROM fixed it, but it could have been the rebuilding associated with moving to 2.26 (which cleaned out leftovers from uninstalled apps). In any case, a workaround was to open calendar and close it, which would bring back Today.
Your workaround didn't work for me.
Additional note: when the problem occurs, it always shows me my phone-screen or call-list instead of the todayscreen.
When I select 'today' using the start-button in the top-left corner nothing happens.
Any other application form the start-menu does work fine.
hi im having problem on my x1 whenever i try to use my keyboard now
even i didnt press the blue buttons i can type in numbers and i try many ways to get my keyboard to function poperly. does anyone has this problem?
and is there any solution?
help please anyone???
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP IM DYING TO FIND THE SOLUTION AS THIS IS VERY ANNOYING, I DO NOT WANT TO PERFORM HARD RESET ON IT EVEN AFTER I READ THE MENU IT SAYS NOTHING AOUT IT
Did the problem start after installing a particular application? Try uninstalling each application you've added from the most recent backwards, soft resetting inbetween each uninstallation in case something is causing a conflict.
As a last resort a hard reset* should sort the problem, assuming it's software related. Of course you'll need to reinstall any applications you've got on the phone, and back up any data you want to keep on the phone (I always forget to copy newly added numbers from the phone onto the sim before hard resets, unfortunately ).
*switch the phone off, then hold both silver buttons closest to the screen either side of the optical joystick and switch the phone on while holding the buttons. Keep them pressed until a white screen with blue writing appears. Now follow the onscreen instructions to reset your phone to it's factory default settings.
e: just noticed that you replied while I was writing this. no need to shout! It's an odd problem, and there's probably no one else who's had it, hence no replies. If the problem hasn't been solved after a soft reset, then more than likely a program that's been installed has either taken over a keyboard function, been configured incorrectly, or has overwritten a system file when installing. In which case, like I said, uninstall each program you've installed. If that doesn't work, I think you'll have to hard reset it.
e ii: does the "Fn" icon appear at the bottom of the screen, to the left of the middle, right next to the SIP icon?
I HAVE SOLVED IT BUT I HAVE NO IDEA WHY IT IS FIX
first i slide out my keyboard keep preesing the numbers on microsoft word then i go to dail pad and keep pressing the keyboard numbers then i close the keyboard and began to type with compact qwerty later i slide the keyboard out again and it works............... wtf?????????? is this some bug or what if anyone experience it please tell me. no idea what the hack is happen............ btw thanx anyone who helped me, at least now i dont need a hard reset. (i have been hard resetting my x1 more than 10 times within 3 weeks time................)

even the fn sign is not there it just straight away type out numbers, after a soft reset when slide out the keyboard instantly when i type it has numbers..... really weird....
That is very odd. I thought for a while that maybe the phone thinks it's in the dialpad, so I tried to see if the dialpad running in the background would cause the same thing in word, but mine seemed to be ok.

i think im the first xperia user to encounter this problem i just going mad keep pressing the button and think of related applications that relates both so dailer and microsoft word solve my problem. at first i encounter tthe keyboards button starts from opera mini when i try to type in my address and ended up with numbers
I have almost the same problem i have install TOUCH HD Keyboard and after that i couldn't make èòàù (italian) so after uninstalling that .cab all works well again but no more Virtual Keyboard
you probably have press the function key twice, such that it function-lock your keyboard, so all the keys that you hit will yield the numbers or whatever the function+key is supposed to yield.
just hit the function key again to unlock function lock.

TouchFlo3D installed?
Yes it is....
TF3D automatically maps the right button to "Today". I don't know if there is a fix for this because I don't use it but you might want to read through the related threads for the solution.
That is frankly inconvenient to say the least...I'll have to research this and find a solution...Thanks for your help...

Why not just deinstall TF3D? It's crap, it's slow, it messes up the phone and the usabililty is very weak because you have to flip the pages to get all the functions sonyericsson has in one panel.
I like it to be honest...its the main panel that I use...
It is slow, but I don't mind it though.....personal opinion I suppose
I recently got my HD and need to figure out which auto-rotator is better. Also would like some instructions on how to install. THANK YOU!!!
Hi,
I use Flip it by Wild Berry team, its much simpler to use and configure than the two you mentioned.
http://rapidshare.com/files/172926970/Flip_IT_by_WildBerry_Team.cab
Simply copy the cab to your phone and run the cab. Cant for the life of me remember if it needs a soft reset but if its not working then do one.

I did use gyrater but stopped and now use AEButton Plus. I don't now use an automatic rotate app.
AEB+ has a screen rotate function. I have assigned this function to a double press on the OK button.
This allows me to rotate quickly when I want and not automatically. This is my preference since I don't always want the screen rotated.
Find it here: http://ae.inc.ru
I also use it to map the volume up/down to actual up/down and double press for volume control and long press up gives a flash lamp (plamp) and long press down gives auto record on Resco recorder.
AEB+ is shareware but has virtually all the functions available in the unregistered state.
Worked through of few rotational apps but now staying with ChangeScreen. Very easy to use and exclude programmmes (just type in the name). Am finding my list of exclusions keeps growing and wondered whether it is mainly a gimmick.
I think this is because, unless the app is full screen, in widescreen you end up with a long header and footer plate and a lot less screen doing the real business.
Anyway try ChangeScreen .

Hello nogs,
I did 2 times an reboot, but still it don't works.
Do you have any idea.
btw i have a HTC HD
Personally I'd recommend either Changescreen or FlipIt. Both easy to set up and both work a charm!!
anybody got a clue how to totally remove flip it? ive tried with touch flo on and off and just normally remove and removing through activ sync but it still remains in the list of programs and also when i go to start/settings/menus its in there and the box is checked and when i try to uncheck the box it says "cannot move that item",only other way i can think to get rid of it totally is to reflash the rom ag ain which seems a bit extreme to remove an app.

Some roms have apps embedded into them so you cannot remove them unfortunately

It is a tiny app, just turn it off in preferences and ignore it!

@MaskedMarauder yeah suppose thats the best option although it will probably nip my head and i will reflash anyway
Hi, does anyone have a software solution for having an option to soft reset the phone from within tf3d or wm6.1 ? Right now i'm trying out all sorts of new software and it's quite annoying having to open the back cover each time I want to reset.

Try PsShutXP which will give you the options. Haven't tried it myself, but it worked on my blackstone a treat. Use the Touch Diamond version, its about the right fit.
Can you not just hold the power button down and switch it off? It's what I do.
I know it requires access to the touchscreen, but so would any software solution.
You can also install HD Tweak.
I can confirm it works on the TP2.
It also installs Soft Reset.
When you execute, it asks you if you want to soft reset and voila
H.
Devstate (short for device state) is what I use, excellent today plugin (as long as TF3D is disabled) it has options to turn off screen and other stuff too.
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-devstate-v1-5.html
Thanks for the quick replies !
I don't like the option of keeping the power button pressed, because it requires me to confirm the shutdown and to power it up again when it has shut down, in the end taking longer if you reset the device about 10 times a day...
As for the PsShutXP, I can confirm it works on the Touch Pro 2.
I will give the HD Tweaks a try and see how that works.
I tried HD Tweaks as well and the reboot function works fine as well. I think I'll go for PsShutXP though since you can skin it. I am also using Advanced Config 3.3 so the added functionality in HD tweaks is not useful either.
I like this one:
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-a-a-reset-manager.html
You can schedule also when you want to perform a soft reset
Pocketpowermanager is wonderful. Three little icons at the foot of my today screen, allowing me to power-off, rotate screen and soft reset.
Here is what i've used since my touch pro. Hope it helps
here is monxdified simple & neat soft-reset. cab in the zip file.

Handy menu is best I think. U get very nice menu with many short cuts in it and also soft reset. U can have an icon in top bar, but for that U have to install Handy switcher too. Try them and see if U gonna like them, but they are just free to try...
