is in-call volume really low ? - XPERIA X10 General

hi everyone, i had searched so many topics/forums about this common issue
some ppl say its too low so they cannot hear anything in lousy places
some other say its ok and they have not face any trouble
if I was going to buy it for myself somehow I could cope with that but since im buying this device for my fiance I cant risk .
is this going to be a problem so far ?
I dont want my fiance to think that I've bought a crap for her

As far as I'm concerned, yes this is a real problem ! I'm not deaf, but in a noisy environnement, you can hardly hear people you're speaking with .

Yes it is really a problem and SE knows about it and it gets fixed with the next smaller update.
o2 germany confirmed today the update will come in week 25 so that would be june 21.

i only wish they have someway to fix the "end call" button position. i keep ending call because i am use to hear it with my face touching the screen.

its gonna be fixed in the next update.
problem has been acknowledged by SE on their official blog/forum
they are working on the 'acoustics engine

tnx everyone
AFAIK they've said its gonna happen in Q4
http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/produ...on-xperia™-x10-to-get-uxp-upgrade-in-q4-2010/
it may not fix the problem right ? and i cant wait till june 21 cuz I have to buy it in june 15 for her birthday. what do you suggest ? if this not going to work im gonna buy a desire instead

An official update is coming by the 3rd week of june.

Software update vs. Firmware update.
Firmware is what's coming soon.
Software is what's coming in Q4.

Yes. As of now, it is a real problem. In noisy outdoor environment, without the earphone, you can't hear anything.

I do but from the speculated specs it's not gonna have US 3G bands. I hope the rumors are wrong. Plus, I can imagine how much it's gonna cost. I'm not paying anywhere near a $1000...maximum maybe around $700.

i did hear this a while ago but have not seen it confirmed, when i ask by twitter on the xperia blog i was told it was up to vodaphone to announce it but on there website it just says november.
just got a direct message from the xperia blog on twitter. i ask why i have not see and reviews yet. they said that they are still waiting for the final x2 software and and we should see reviews soon. they said in a twwet to someone else that they should be sent out next week.
can they release on the 6 november when they still have not got the final software? i doubt they will, my guess would be mid to late november

Would seem odd, but then again it wouldnt suprise me if SE released this early without the final software update. It says so on the Voda website that it will come on the 6th.

To find out, go to this page http://www.vodafonetouchthephone.com/ , click on "skill game", while playing that on the bottom left of the screen different phones will pop up, everytime the phone pops up the date of release pops up with it. You may have to play it a few times as different phones pop up.
id be more interested in the new droid than a rebadge x1

looks like the 6th is the official date. but one thing i would point out is the satio's date is the original one and that was delayed by a week or 2 so the x2 might get the same treatment but lets hope not.
We won't see the X2 in the shelves before the very end of November the earliest.

I can wait!
I don't get it... so You guys are actually waiting for it?? damn... msm 7200a cpu is sooo yesterday comparing to snapdragon or a8 cortex devices. I would wait few more weeks/months if I were You. the worst thing one can do is to sign a vodaphone contract for 18 - 24 mths to get it. well... other than 8 mp camera, what's so special about x2 anyway? panels? please..... SE's quality??
...
I am keeping x1 till release reviews of htc leo, n900 and x3 (if those rumours about nov 3 are real).
then I shall burn my money...
X2 java speed at top
Someone wrote in an SE forum that X2 might get different hardware specs than what leaked before (7200a). Lets wait for the final device and see what aktually is in it
Lets hope they speed it up a bit.
If it does come out on the 6th it'd be just in time before the warranty for my X1 expires so that I can send it for servicing of the keyboard. Been delaying it for so long cos can't do without it for a day.

Well what is SO strange if somebody WANTS that?
I don't ****ing care if it's "so yesterday" or today on paper.
If it works well - great, **** the "dry" specs.
And if it works bad, it's bad.
BTW I don't get any Vodafone contract, but simply buy this from SE.
As for device: great camera, great keyboard, good quality, and yes - also those damned panels. Now you get it?
Snapdragon - there are only two now, both touchscreen only, even no camera button - thank you.
I'm very picky as for hardware/formfactor, nothing convinces me.
N900 - please, a device which works in landscape ONLY???
So - not much to choose from!
And Android - that would be interesting but again - depending too much on Google - thanks.
I'd be really happy to have at least 3 devices I like to choose from but it just cannot happen!
HTC makes such a crappy devices (form factor/functionality)....

Reason for the delay of the New Firmware...

Hi guys!
Take a look to this link... i believe this must be the reason why the generic firmware hasn't been released.
http://developer.sonyericsson.com/community/thread/50846;jsessionid=C45090766D455A7A1096F07BF254C22A
Any fix to problems is always welcome
It will be funny though if they're not releasing it until the root comes, and the root won't be release til the new firmware comes LOL just staring at each other of who will go first
The good news is that they are working on it and discovered some Bugs to be fixed
Let´s hope it's going to be released early this week. I'm tired of this slow and buggy firmware. Not to mention the battery and call volume issues.

[HTC Germany] Statement ICS Update

Hello Guys,
since there was no date for the Desire HD ICS Update I asked the German HTC support if they have a specific date for the Update.
You can find the Answer in the attechment and for everyone who is not that into the German language here the translation:
Hello,
Thank you for your request related to your HTC Desire HD
We only have the confirmation that it will roll out this year. But there is no specific date when it will happen. Our experts predict, it wont be later than August and expect it more likely happen in May.
[Standart things about to contact them again and a link to survey]
Greetings
Juergen
HTC
Great news So they say May and August? Then I'd say it comes in June or July
I hope sooner rather then later, my DHD is starting to fall apart (Volume rocker could fall out any moment i feel, power button sometimes does not work, Scratches all over, Sim/SDcard case is falling off sometimes and the battery doesnt get better either ).
And my contract runs out in September so i hope i can still experience ICS on this device that has suited so well in the past 2 years. And it was such an amazing community here on XDA. Great fun, great roms and i learned so much about Android and stuff
I don't know why they even stated out August cause I did not even mentioned it in my original request to them
But since they said not later than august but expeted to be in May i would agree with you and say mid of June

HTC One with 1.27 firmware

Hi,
I've just received my HTC One I just discovered that it has 1.27 firmware inside :| And OTA section doesn't show updates :\
What can I do? Can I update to 1.28 (HTC Stock) without flashing a custom rom?

4.2.2 will drop for the One soon, I believe Football has sources to confirm it. Probably within the next two months.
anyone knows what are differences between the two firmwares?

Hi,
I noticed too a weird bluetooth connectivity in my car, with sound skipping.
It seems that disabling wifi does help.
On this s600 Thread they said it will come end of april or may. 4.2.2 features a good performance boost.
If it gets updated to 4.2.2, would the camera app have the photosphere or something similar.

If any of you really think they're updating to 4.2.2 in the next 30 or even 60 days you're living in dreamworld. HTC's priority is the production and sale of this handset to get them back into the black. They're not going to rush to bring out a minor iterative update that few are desperate for and no-one needs.

As long as they update to KLP and if they skipped 4.2.2 I wouldn't really care.

Agreed. The priority should be firmware updates to address any issues that early-adopters encounter and big, RELEVANT updates like KLP. HTC made an active decision NOT to use 4.2.2, so the idea that some are suggesting that they're going to release the phone with 4.1 and then scrabble to bring 4.2.2 anyway is a bit silly.

Dreamworld? Just so you know every company has what we call "Departments" just because a company focuses on marketing doesn't mean their R&D department would also do marketing tasks and halt R&D(Research & Development).

unless the firmware developers are doing the manufacturing of the handsets at the factories then what you say makes no sense
some people's logic is seriously lol funny, software development does not just stop b/c they need to speed up the manufacturing process in the plants, and if it did how would that help the cause when they do not even work there?

There's nothing wrong with my logic, this is just common sense combined with observational evidence from past handsets. I think you've got the wrong end of the stick here - and it might be my fault for not being clearer. I'm not suggesting they won't bring it out for reasons of available 'manpower.' I'm just suggesting they have priorities, and a bottom line - and you sir, being one of the 2% public (along with me) who know and care about things like .x android iterations are not a priority. They made an active decision to go with 4.1. New software updates mean software engineers to combine with Sense, licensing with google, training and updating customer service personnel in case of problems/bugs with the update. All this and more cost MONEY. Can they do it? Sure. WILL they do it for a tiny update iteration that's not important to anyone outside the 2% and something that's too irrelevant to market and advertise about? HELL NO.
Anyway I'll bookmark this thread - will give it 60 days and see if Im wrong. My guess is you'll never see it. They'll jump to KLP. It makes more financial sense and my 'funny logic' tells me their business is financially motivated.
You seem to labouring under the impression that HTC either allow all their code division to sit on their hands for months on end whilst each batch is shipped out and sold, only earning their keep ready for the next manufacturing run (either that or you're assuming they are laid off for months at a time, allowing the competition time to head hunt them!)

I agree people are delusional if they think HTC will release 4.2.2 anytime in the next 6 months. HTC has proven time and time again to lie about release dates and take their sweet time. They are as bad as Motorola. Nothing has changed with the one and if we do get key lime pie it will be 8 months after Google releases it if HTC hasn't folded by then. They are gambling the whole company on the one release. Hope it does pay off for them as their phone hardware look and build is nice.

Did you get Oreo update already?

Googling about this topic, I can see expected release dates for U11 and U10, but not for U ultra... when the h*ll are they planning to deploy the OTAs? It's been seven months since Oreo went GA... the 2014 Nexus 6 I left behind two months ago, had a newer android version on it (7.0.1)... okay, it was a Nexus, but a 2014 one...
Cheers.
They said until the end of the month... We'll be waiting for another week at least...
Same Sh1t...Different Day.
Still waiting. End of February was muted about. So will have to be patient, normal for HTC software updates.??

Already update
Android 8.0 Oreo update (v2.19.400.1) arrived today, at least on my Indian variant: not bad for a just purchased 250€ device
theres still no news on google about it or anywhere i look so its very ush ush
nice, finally. hope it won't take too long to spread to other markets.
can anyone provide a screenshot of the changelog?
which security patch level is it?
i know, the chances are minimal, but maybe someone could check treble support? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kevintresuelo.treble
thanks!
Screenshot or it never happened.
lots of people on the htc u ultra group on facebook have screenshots https://www.facebook.com/groups/1180454748729142/?fref=nf
https : // drive.google.com/open?id=15uwV73Dy9M4Ac5TTNQ0WpEB76_qj11Bx
Here's the screenshot. No support for Treble unfortunately New icons are quite ugly, but system is snappier and there are more settings in menu.
Good news. LEts hope that it will spread in europe soon also.
Me too, my htc u ultra has been updated to oreo today
