Does you X2 do this?
I just got my X2 and I have 2 bugs that I can't figure out.
(1) If I turn on WIFI the phone stalls/hangs. If I remove battery and restart then it starts up fine and wifi is now running. Turn off WIFI and no problems. Turn it back on, same thing happens!
(2) I just cant seem to install TomTom, it installed and worked fine on my X1 and is compatible with Windows 6.5.
Just one of the many bugs plaguing the X2.
The wifi crashing has happened to me before, the only method that worked was re-installing the OS via SEUS. Phone seems to run much better after that.
And hope for the march update to come along soon.
Re-installing the OS eh? Hmmm... I just might have to do this.
I did a full factory reset, but I guess it is not as good then.
I finally got TomTom installed, this time I ran the CAB and started doing other stuff on the phone (as it takes so long to install) A few minutes later it said it was installed. WTF?
But of course, the software cant find the GPS, I think I saw a fix for that somewhere.
And I also have the question to X2 owners:
For sure X1 and previous SE devices like P990, P1
have a strange cap/limitation regarding
PICTURE size.
So when picture has a lot of detail and a lot of light in it
and the fiinal size is around 1,5 MB
the phone freezes after taking such a photo
without saving it.
I've had specific landscapes which were always causing that!
Is that the same on X2?
On X1 it's a very rare thing, but definitely present.

1) This problem was solved by re-flash with SEUS. Yes, I flashed the same version that I had already in X2. Both same versions but newer is much better. I thing that SE quiet updated a few files but keep the name.
2) X2 using different GPS port than X1. This why TT can´t find GPS. You need to instal Franson GPSGate, this port emulator can emulate right port, whitch TT can see. At least, TT is the only navi software that have this problem. iGo works fluently, the same as Garmin.
PS: Sorry for my poor english.
also remember to install the small patch that SEUS released a few weeks ago.. it fixes a few bugs.
Ok friends.
Got my X2 finally!!!!
So before any eventual upgrade, my questions.
Many things actually surprised me....
So:
Where is my language??
I have a polish device but no clue where are my polish letters?
Where is WM keyboard or handwriting?
Or it has ONLY SE keyboard installed??
Where is Illumination setting?
Where is the option to display battery and next appointment when pressing clock on top bar?
Where is the option to power the device up with any key?
Where is the option to turn on/off the proximity sensor??
How can I set sending program with X icon to backround?!
I just couldn't find it anywhere!!
Also it looks like less responsive than X1.
Aha and one more:
My firmware is R1AA097
R5A
GENERIC_PL
It's the latest right??
I will be very grateful for answers.
I'm kind of confused a bit.
"Where is the option to display battery and next appointment when pressing clock on top bar?"
This is an issue with Windows Mobile 6.5. AFAIK all Windows Mobile 6.5 ROMs have this issue.
And the X2 has no choice but to me less responsive. The touch screen sensitizer is under the plastic on the front of the device where as on the X1 it was laid directly on the screen.

I've had the x2 for 2 months now, got it from the U.S i put it away because it was annoying me (to many bugs) now i'm using an HTC HD2 LEO I'M not going to use it again unless se realeases new firmware for it, other than that i'ts a very good device. some answers to your questions
(A) changing the language on the keyboard start/settings/ personal/ keyboard/languages/ the list drops down there are 23 languages supported even greek !
(b) no prximity sensor
(C) no option to option to power the device up with any key
(D) Illumination setting start/settings/personal/sounds and notifications/ it's all there personalize anything you want
(E) no sending program with X icon to backround
I hope i helped you in some way, I think that there are limited settings in general in wm 6.5 because my HTC HD2 has also limited settings but i'm very satisfied with my hd2 because i's very stable no crashes or hang ups.
@mathiosn
Thanks!
Actually X2 has proximity sensor,
but it works only in TileWave.
Regarding languages:
Yes of course there's a huge list of languages.
But apparently choosing my Polish
looks like English!!
No Polish letters at all!!
And that's a problem.

as for the languages in the keyboard layout if you press the little ''world'' icon it shows you the lanuage that you have chosen have you tried that?

The only thing that was making my jasjam freeze so much are the bugs in the windows. Best for me till now is the black pro 2.0. One more ROM left to try (they say its the best) the LVSW 6 (did i spell it right?). Cheers man keep Software to minimum

I have found that when I type an SMS (Text Message) the keyboard is sometimes not recognised...
I will be typing and it will just miss out letters, I also type and about 3 seconds later the text will appear...
Is anyone having this issue?
I think an idea might be to go onto the I-mate site and ask the live support as they may have a fix. www.imate.com
Hi,
I have been using iGo 2006 Plus for a couple of weeks now and keep noticing a weird problem. Every now and again, at some point the screen orientation will go haywire, and the touchscreen will revert to the default (upside down landscape on athena) but the screen will stay the same. I.e. to click the bottom right of the screen I have to tap the top left part of the screen. Anyone else have this issue? It's very weird! At first I thought the device was freezing as I was pressing buttons and nothing was happening, but then I realised the touchscreen and the display had fallen out with each other!

Yep - I've had exactly the same problem - it usually happens when you 'minimise' i-Go to use your PPC and then try to 'maximise' again. The only way around it that I've found is to close i-Go to use PPC and then re-start it again.
Thanks for the reply, I'm gutted it isn't just me - was hoping I'd found a perfect TomTom 6 replacement! Oh well, it's still better than TT6. If anyone knows of a fix, please let us know!
Best replacement I've found is the new and improved 2007 re-packaged iGo software known as MioMap v3.2. Very similar GUI but much improved functionality wise over iGo and it has Speed camera software to boot as well as giving directions (voice guidance) with Miles as opposed to only giving Voice guidance in Kilometers option.
It's got everything iGo has and is built on its platform...it just works better and is far more stable IMHO. Still evaluating it and have no issues as yet. I too had experienced the fore mentioned issue of screen rotation in iGo My Way.
I'm glad I made the switch.
I agree miomap 3.2 seems more stable.
I havnt found a minimize option on it yet,but i only just installed and messed with a few options.

Wait till you take her out for a spin! This app really rocks!! Just wish the GUI was as crisp as on iGo, which truly looked VGA all the way, whereas MioMaps options menu looks more like stretched QVGA
But don't worry peeps, the maps and cockpit look every bit as good as iGo's.
I changed the skin for mio map and found the minimize button,and the UI has improved dramtically.
I used the quicksilver skin from a IGO/MIO fanpage.

Hi johnwalk. Don't know why the link is not working for you. I just tried the link via your quotation of my post and it works perfectly for me using Internet Explorer and Firefox on the PC.....
Just tried through PIE & Opera on the Ameo and no problem there either. Must be some settings in your browser.
sorry i didnt get back to you regarding the skin site(I was at work).
Ive just used mio to navigate home from work and it seems there are still some probs.
1: If I recieve a notification whilst using mio the notification appears in portrait and when i exit mio the screen stays in portrait.(I get the same prob when using igo with wisbar advance active)
2: The gps position on screen cannot keep up even at 30mph.
3: It occasionally doesnt show me the correct position on the map.
4: It occasionally loses gps for a few seconds.
Mackaby! Did you check out the few tweaks they have for the sys.txt on that blogger.xs4all site?
Fair observations of MioMaps shortcomings, but....

Hi again. Yes I've experienced all of the same things you described, but am not majorly put off by it.
To be honest I don't want to read any txt whilst driving, but you make some fair points. As for the occasional loss of signal, I had these issues with TomTom 5 & 6, but not often, but when it happened with TomTom, it really screwed me up. With iGo & MioMap signal re-acquisition is far quicker and hasn't caused me any major gripes as yet, but it is early days.
Yeah I did a few alterations to the sys.txt as instructed, but only to reveal 1 way streets. I didn't want to make too many changes all at once without seeing the initial ones.
Great site though. Thanks.
To be honest, I'm looking forward to the new version of iGo in all its glorious 3D rendering of streets and buildings.
P.S. 2: The gps position on screen cannot keep up even at 30mph. I haven't experienced this yet.
Im making this thread in the hope that we can make a joint list and things can get crossed off-
edit: i will add anything that may be possible to be corrected by software fixes. whilst things like " you have to open the case to get the sd card/soft reset are very valid, there is nothing we can do im afraid!!!
Here are a list of the main things that really annoy me:
1) It takes ages to open up the SMS inbox/missed calls, sometimes a few seconds
2) there is a delay between someone calling you and your phone ringing
3) Videos are very jerky and not smooth unless i convert them and all that stuff which i shouldnt need to. i assume this is because we cant make use of the hardware acceleration?
4) no good games- emulators dont work.
5) Ring tone too weak
6) vibrate too weak
7) when im on the phone and i get someone else on call waiting, the party i am speaking to cant hear what im saying
8) The close / ok button on the top right are way too small.
9) no official flash support for youtube...
10) opera keeps on crashing
8) When using the keyboard, just a small nudge on top of the screen turns it into portrait mode, annoying when sending a text.
9) The close / ok button on the top right are way too small.
10) Have to open the case to remove the SD-card
11) Lack of updates, news, panels, etc. from Sony Ericsson... not a single screenshot, news or anything since release
12) Hidden softreset button
") no good games- emulators dont work."
with wvga fix i have gotten all games i used on my old himalaya to work just fine
with x1 but of cause if you dont cound wvga fix
"10) Have to open the case to remove the SD-card"
yeah thats a problem
"other general responsive and delay issues"
seem to be a general windows mobile issue
at least i had them with all wm devices i had
13) no official flash support for youtube...
I don't think the removal of the back is a 'problem' but surely a fraking INCONVENIENCE.
I agree with all those points so far and could certainly list even more but unless this will become a 'rant post', makes no sense for me to post this. But if one looks at all the posts in here and all those problems that are posted, one will find that there is very much that is wrong with this X1.

5) Ring tone too weak
true, but ive experienced higher volume on different ROMs. so there probale is a way to change that
8) The close / ok button on the top right are way too small.
just use the "End Call" or OK button from your phone (lower right hard keys)

I bet he was joking!
Nobody's perfect, no phone is perfect, but my SEX1 is the BEST OVERALL PHONE AROUND TO DATE
Please beware: MOST of your complaints are related to windows mobile and NOT the phone itself.
KEEP IN MIND: "windows" UI was designed 10 YEARS AGO for slow, low-mem PDAs with 320x240 screens. TEN YEARS later we are still using the same archaic obsolete UI (eg. white, simple background, tiny soft-keyboard, 2-options-on-each-tab menus for setting, no thumb-driven UI...). WM UI is a dinosaur and that's why HTC develped TouchFlo3D as a "mask" for windows´s ugliness and user-unfriendlyness, BUT the widespread windows platform lets many people develop apps, innovations, tweaks etc and that´s what this is all about
If I want to compaint, well, I can allways find something about any phone to complaint about...
Still want my 2 cents??
The lack of a REAL dedicated VOICE-REC button is killing me,
but that's only me, my usage, my world, my way...
Still remember the time when I was counting the day until SE release an "official upgrade" for their firmware for my P900 on their website. What a completely joke!
I'm not sure why you even bothered mentioning Nokia's support for their handsets, if you have a Win Mo device you are having access to the best support in the world.
Have a look around, upgrade your ROM because the stock ROM, be it your operator's or HTC's is crap, then you wouldn't have had the performance issues in the first place.
The X1 is easily the most stable device I ever had, and had owned quite a fair amount of XDAs in the past years, starting with O2 XDA
I have a problem on my xperia sincethe begining.
when I type a sms if I write sentence pretty fast I have to wait to allow the pphone to finish writin.
anyone has the same pb? any solution?
did you update your phone to the latest firmware?
Firmware R2A seems to be faster, but I think the lag in general happens alot in windows mobile phones.
I've experienced this issue on my first R1A ROM that I got when the phone shipped in Nov/08. I've just recently updated to R3AA010, and noticed that the issue is still there. I do find that it helps to give the phone 10-15 seconds to finish its processing after rotating the screen (sliding out the hardware KB), since it seems to lag when you start to type RIGHT after rotating.
I am running Wisbar Advance 3 + Desktop 2, so that may have something to do with it, but I have heard that a LOT of ppl are experiencing this. Once I rotate and wait a good 10 seconds before typing, the character-popup speed is improved, but still not instant like it should be.
Could be a generic WinMo fault too...

Hm... I had the same issues with R1A AND R2A, but I haven't noticed it in R3A. Weird.
I get this issue with TouchIT 7+, and a friend of mine also gets it with Smaberg TouchX. It happened to both of us a couple of weeks after flashing. Strangely it's not happening on my one at the moment, so seems like an intermittant slow down.
thats weird, i got my device with the R2A rom and never experienced such issue, only problem i have with my x1 is that the panels does not rotate without the stutter, but hey, thats common on all xperias
"Disable Word Suggestions from Settings/Personal/Input/Word Completion. If you have a full QWERTY keyboard on your phone, and you're fairly fast at typing, the word suggestions are of no use to you anyway. And I have noticed quite a lag when this setting is on, especially when writing text messages. One would think that a cell-phone with 256MB of RAM, 128MB graphics memory and a 528MHz processor could handle quick typing without delay, but apparently that was a hard nut to crack for Microsoft."

That's well worth trying if people haven't already done this. The problem I've experienced is not related to this however, as I've never had it enabled.
Here's the fix:
Along with turning off word suggesrtion. You must also click on "clear stored Entries"...this will get rid of you lag. What happens is the X1 stores everything we type so you must go in periodically (manually) and clear all those stored words out. This along with turning off word suggestion will fix lag time.
guys, I didn't do it on purpose, I xanted to switched from windiws to xperia appearance and it's over, no more pb with typing......and YES i kept word suggestions.
finally I found.
thx to all of you, and let me know if this tip helps!

i'm running on the xperia skin and i always get this issue with the ori rom and the custom roms. mine would normally pause half way through an sms or once or twice stuck at the "To" input when doing sms. i will try to off the auto complete and see if that solve the problem - thanks for the heads-up
Again folks, I said it in my earlier post if you want to fix the text lag, you must "clear stored entry" in seetings underneth the word complettion option. This will end the lag, however periodically you will have to go back in and do it again.
Well, I have problem with typing on any android build... I know that screen sensitivity decrease made typing a lot easier on wm... Do you know how we can decrease screen sensitivity in Android?
I tried HTC IMEI also, i think typing is easier with that... But still, screen is too sensitive for me... What do you think? Do you have any idea how to fix that?
btw... i`m tired, so my english can be weird .. sorry for that
thats a hardware problem ! go get your Hd2 touch screen replaced ....ur touchscreen has a fault ! if its under warranty ...go asap ! i have already given it ! i had the same problem !
ahahah just laughing at the reply about sending it back... its like saying: "my phone is too fast, must be a hardware problem"...
20mihalko, try using the Droid X swype keyboard. Once you go swype, you never go back! Swype is the future of touch keyboards.

naah..i think 'blindtype' is the future.
I have the same problem with typing in Android builds. In WM it is more under control and I do not have that much mistakes, but still it is far from perfect (enter/back keys somtimes behave really strange). So some lower sensitivity would help indeed. Or maybe to disable the keyboard to change the key once pressed - in my case most of the mistakes are cased when releasing the button.
I'm thinking about to send my HD2 to warranty repair, but I doubt they will replace it, as it is working...

Funnily enough I feel the exact opposite.
I find using these test builds that I am far more accurate under Android than I am with WinMo. In fact it's one of the reasons I am now using it as a daily build.....
If i am correct, i cannot use swype keyboard, because it doesnt support slovak language.. anyways, i did calibration for htc_imei and it is way better... going to google about blind type, i heard first time about that...

are you sure about that? i had one of first hd2s in europe... bought that in november i think...
try swift key beta, although once you start typing too fast you'll notice very quickly why a multi touch keyboard would be nice .

yes i am damn sure ! dont waste ur time finding any fix ...go and get the screen replaced . also temme one thing ? try this out --- go to any widget on ur home screen hold it so that u can move it all over the home page ... when u r holding the widget while keeping ur finger stable u will see that the widget will wiggle(vibrate) a lot ..if so ..then ur screen is 100% defective !
Exactly like this my HD2 behaves!

I am using a Swype keyboard and noticed that it is missing one section that is normally on the WM Swype. In WM Swype, there is three different sections when you switch to numbers down on the bottom left and the third section has the ability to click between the letters/numbers/spaces that have already been typed. For some reason, the Android Swype seems to be missing that section and you either have to tap between letters to correct/delete/add or just remove them and retype. Has anyone noticed this?
