Hi guys,
I have been reading up on software such as IP Dashboard monitor and such, as a means of calculating what my mobile phone useage is as I go. Such software though only takes into consideration free minutes, which is useless to me.
IS there any software out there that actually allows you to set peak/offpeak times,
-enter a peak/offpeak rate per ?? seconds for landline calls
-peak/offpeak rate per ?? seconds for mobile calls
-special call rates (eg calling a particular number for 10 cents per 10 minutes)
Is there such a program that allows for such flxibility??? It would however, need to convert with currencies and such. Im in Austraila. Such a program would be soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo useful for alot of us. Any help would be appreciated.
there is phone dashboard by hudsonmobile.com who does what u want.
Sorry, thats the one I tried. I meant that one, by Hudson. Are you trying to tell me that it can do what I asked? When I went through the options, all it said I could do was set a monthly free limit, bucket size, and thats about it. I didnt find any options where I could specify an exact amount per 30seconds, or per 10 seconds., peak or off peak.
I want the same functionallity, and also have the possibility to use prepay cards and have sms cost tracking.
Contacted Hudson mobile, but there software can't do this.
Haven't found anything else yet.
I've been using Phone Dashboard by HudsonMobile for a few months now and love it. There is a "round up to 1 minute" function that you can deselect to get seconds. More importantly, though, I had a problem with how they calculated their usage graph, which started on the 1st day of the month. I needed it to start on the 9th, my billing start date. I emailed them and within a few days they had changed the software!!! They were very responsive and willing to update their software to meet market needs. I would continue to try them and send them an email ([email protected]). I'm sure if it isn't in there now, they would like to add it to make the software work for more people and increase their market potential. Also, I sent them an email telling them about this forum so they could help out.
Hope this helps, since I don't know of any other software that comes close

I've been using it too for nearly 3 months and it is a great product, the devlopement team is really very firendly.
The 1.1 version does almost all what you need but it can only track minutes and seconds not yet prices, i think it is upcoming in the next realeases.

I've set my start date as 15th but the only display that seems to use this is the call list. The today screen scrolling display and the graphs still show the usage from the 1st of the month, am i missing something?
Make sure you download the latest version from Handango - it will give you Monthly Usage from the first day of your billing period - many people found the previous implementation very confusing. The Plan Tracker should always be keyed to the first day of your billing period.
So what you are really looking for is something that can look in your contact list and weather you call out or pick up a caller id comming in be able to catagorize the minutes you just used into one of the many diffrent types each plan allows. Like mobile to mobile, nifghts and weekends, free, and of course the ever dreaded pay per minute. and when you get done with a call if the software couldn't tell what type of call it was because it wasn't in your contact list it would ask you to tell it what it was so it would know next time.
Yes that would be something that would be the best thing since sliced bread and would sell as fast as hot cakes. Boy is this making me hungry. :lol:
Hello Guys or should I say lucky X1 owners.
Please tell me if this is a true iPod replacement I am not comparing this to iPod but the reason is a follows.
I used to have Qtek S100 and after a little music being played on it gets hotter (very hot really) and battery lasts for very few hours (not a whole day). As being this windows mobile at its core I would like to know if X1 suffers the same problems? Please tell me if you can play long hours of audio tones???
Kind Regards
Abbas
Very fair question:
The Ipod is unique, but not perfect because the limitation from apple.
Just to mention 2 things:
*You can not get your music from any place you like, must be from itunes
* No stereo bluetooth
Xperia has a powerful battery 1500 mah specs call for up 10 hrs talking time,
and up 800 hrs standby. But How long just playing music, turning off
everything else?
Well the question is not about features or limitation of a product, the question is does a device do a job which is an end user intend to do.
Has any of the X1 owner litlary played 2/3 hours of continues music and what was the battery status? also was the phone back burning?

I got a good 12h of continuous playback in 1 charge. Pretty good comparing to my old W850i that had about 10h playback. And the back was not hot on the X1.

12 hours of CONTINUOUS music? I'm sorry, I have to call BS on this one. No way, no how, not in a million years.

...why?...
Actually I am seeing similar times. This however only when I shut off UMTS and dont do anything power-intensive (GPS, Wifi etc).
At the moment my battery is good enough for a 45 min TV episode, about 20 mins of GPRS/UMTS surfing (checking emails) and about 6-7 hours of music.
it works okay, but its no iPod. Just not snappy enough.
My power lasts for using and playback of two tv episodes (2x ~45 min) and still have over 50 % left. My old atom life was after the same by about 25 % battery left. 3G is allways on. So 10 h music playback with screen turned off is I think absolutely possible. The battery of the X1 is great, SE did a great job here!
How is the volume and bass with headphones on the Xperia?
Equaliser?
Can anyone confirm if there is a sound equaliser on X1?
i use my x1 instead of my ipod. the battery consumption is low (imo).
to boost my soundexperience i just installed the "SRS WOW HD" driver .cab.
unfortunatly i forgot my earplugs at my girlfriends place and have to wait till tomorrow to test it.

Why not?
From Touch HD's review on SlashGear - http://www.slashgear.com/htc-touch-hd-slashgear-review-part-2-0721942/
With continuous audio playback, the Touch HD lasted around fifteen hours before playback ended.

15 hours, taking in mind Xperia's smaller screen and bigger battery, 12 hours shouldn't be a problem...
I was gonna say the same, I get about 8 hours w/ BT Stereo on,and texting in the middle, along with a two or three quick 20 min calls on my Touch Pro.
Plus Sony has always been good with battery life, although not sure if I can say its Sonys or HTCs work this time around o_o.
The xperia makes as a nice ipod alternative I'm sure. but you need a hefty card to really make it ipod replaceable.

not yet, when the audiobooster from HD is working then there will be.
Unfortunately SRS WOW HD doesn't work here.
Sounds brilliant if you use CorePlayer IMO.
Also with 8GB cards as cheap as £12.99 I should be able to fit a decent amount of music on it. Or at a push 16GB cards are around £40.
I never planned to use my X1 for music but it blows my Sony Walkman MP3 player out of the water, and that was the best quality I had heard on an MP3 player.
The catch is even CorePlayer is not exactly the best interface for choosing your tracks. Its also a bit crap that you can't listen to the radio and do something else, as the radio is only available via one of the panels and so turns off when you try to get into something else.

The Radio player only stops when you change panels. I've managed to read SMS and browser the internet at the same time as listening to Radio 4.

Hi, its maybe just me, you said Radio player stops when you change panels but then how you managed to listen the read SMS and browser while listening the Radio 4??? I believe to read SMS and browse you have to change the panel don't you?
Whilst in the Radio panel you have the two softkeys / touch screen to open Contacts or Web and at the top left you have Start and top right you have the task man to switch to different apps.
Currently have some random local station and the BBC website running.

Hi,
Just noticed this today, but my xoom keeps jumping between 12:xx pm to 12:xx am. (and it isn't a 1 for 1, i.e. 12:30pm to 12:30am, but rather 12:30pm to 12:15am). I only noticed this since I have the weather live wall paper and it kept jumping between night and day!. Anybody else have this? I have beautiful widgets installed, but never had this till today (been about 1 week of daily use)

Are you talking about your system clock in the lower-right or the clock on your Beautiful Widgets widget?
If the latter, what you need to do is make an exception for Beautiful Widgets in your Task Killer. Better yet, just uninstall the damned task killer. You don't need it (at all) and it is causing problems for you.
Hi Guys,
I have the RK3188 1024 * 600 Quadcore unit from Joying, I have installed the latest rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60591423&postcount=12068. Is there a way i can increase the sleep time beyond 2 hours. 2 hours sucks, i am hardly ever back in my car within 2 hours. I figure it must be possible as a friend has one (not sure what unit, i think 4.2) his is set to 48 hours.
If not, can someone point me in the right direction to try do it with xposed or something? I am a developer, but only in the .NET space. I am sure i could work something out if i have to though haha.
Any success in here?
I'd like to know also but i've not found anything.
I was about to post a thread asking this but instead will bump this one.
I'm also very interested to increase the shutdown delay.
