[Q] Differences between 2.1 versions - XPERIA X10 General

Hi,
because of all this 'nordic' upgrade i've started to wonder - are they differences between those android versions?
I had Germany 1.6 version, now i have nordic but to be honest - i cant see any difference between them.
Do you know any?

There are no major diff. Probably only operator specific settings will be aplied on some "versions".
I believe update was not rolled out for all devices because you can imagine the massive load that has to carry out the servers of SE and the network.
Cheers

Well, generic firmware is going to be the most basic type.
Differences come into play when you talk about Carrier specific-changes. For example, Docomo's X10 has a special APN setting and new OS hooks for push i-mode mail, which won't work on any other firmware.

Yes, i think so but are you sure (about this diffs)?
About the servers - i dont think that SE upload FW on their own servers - they probably are using technogy like akamai or similar.

Push I-Mode Mail (SP-Mode) works perfectly fine on the Nordic 2.1 Rom. So no extra-hooks required from DoCoMo

Please discuss in 2.1 thread

GPRS accelerator

doeas anybody knows if there is a solution fr XDA or any PDA from the major operators Vodafone, Orange similar to those on desktop PC ?
it's called accelerator, macara client, optimiser ....
Decebal
Ummm i never thought of it but i dont think improving GPRS speed can be done by software...
i hope there would be something like this but i dont think its feasible...
the technology is available
http://www.bytemobile.com/html/Client_products.html
this is the producer and it already has a desktop software considered revolutionary.
it is implemented by vodafone, orange, t-mobile ... and i have the PC version. i was looking for the PDA version
Decebal
Such a software exists. My norwegian provider NetCom has one availiable here http://www.netcom.no/Content/images/aksel_pics/netcom_ce.exe
I have no idea how it works, or if it is operator specific, but I had no trouble with it (except that it takes up valuable RAM)

Thanks, I guess that's probably what I'm looking for. But can you tell me if you're using on an XDA and how did you installed it. I cannot get it running. Also if there are some settings to do.
Thanks again,
Decebal
I tried that one and didn't really get it working, but even worse, now can not completely get it uninstalled!
In the Applications screen there's still an "Akselerator" Icon I can not delete. If tapped it says it can not find the application "Spawner" connected to that icon. Wierd.
What can I do?

You might want to poke around a little bit before you put any UK ROM on your AT&T Xperia.
Somebody started a thread just recently saying that it interfered with GPS, for one thing.
And in any event, I think I'd put the generic UK ROM on, not the Vodafone one, if you finally decide that it's the right thing to do.
Why, exactly, are you trying to do this?
Please
Please, in the name of all that is holy, DONT put the Vodafone ROM on a phone that doesn't ABSOLUTELY have to have it. It's the biggest pile of CRAPWARE that exists. I swear, Vodafone enjoy receiving their phones back for repair because they mess up the firmwares that bad.
Every Vodafonebranded phone i have been unfortunate enough to have has been debranded the second I got it.
Just a couple of things they messed up in the X1.
Bottom right hotkey ALWAYS goes to Vodafone LIVE
Any addresses (such as LIVE mail (hotmail) will not work through WIFI because Voda forced the firmware to redirect all "live" requests through Voda WAP/3G/GPRS
MSN Messenger will not work by WIFI, it is forced to connect to Vodafone WAP
Various PANELS have been replaced with Vodafone crapware.
Bottom right softkey in Radio is not working because Voda LIVE key overtakes it.

Actually it goes to your HOMEPAGE, which can be changed in Opera. You can also rename the screen text to Web in the registery.

Pretty sure the right softkey on all the ROMs do whatever the right softkey on the Today panel (which is different to what the manual says).
Although the forcing the MS Live services over the WAP apn only is a bit stupid.

What chance for T-Mobile UK users?

There you all are, bragging about latest Rom updates and customisations and this and that and here we are stuck with T-Mobile Rom 1.43.110.2 release date 28/10/09. Loads of things that don't quite work and no support from T-Mobile......I feel that we have been mugged. Would the sale of goods act work for us if we beat the drum loudly enough?
Just Gold Card it and stick on your choice of ROM.
1.61 WWE/TUR works fine for me. It self configures the network settings and only needs the proxy disabling.

"WE" ?
So much for "thanks for the feedback"
Instead of throwing a wobbly why not do as advised ? Read the forums, methodically. Every time you find something on your phone which 'won't work' you need to search the forums and read the threads. You will find the answer to all of the 'issues' with your phone.
Since pocket pcs and smartphones were invented it is a fact that the manufacturers are not as good as some of the chefs on xda developers at cooking up ROMs. Mobile suppliers have always under resourced the phones they issue, the branding has always been rubbish, the phones always locked. Licensing issues have always meant that what one mobile phone provider giveth the other taketh away.
One thing remains constant: there has (nearly) always been a workaround and the workaround was usually devised on xdadev !

Agreed -it worked for me.
Two things.
1) The stock t-mobile UK ROMS are on this forum. Search for posts by a user called Football and you'll find what you need as a backup.
2) Disabling the Proxy didn't work for me on it's own. I had to find the setting to update the connections database first. Once that lastest connection database downloaded, I could then disable the proxy and viola, Peep started to work.

I can't load it, because I've a German device. But it is for me in the list and it is marked " Date: 2010-06-17".

This is weird! It did show up for me as in your pic but it has now disappeared for the list. This is what i have in my list :
odd, that looks more like a radio version than a rom version. can't try the download though, not on pc. hmmm.
I have now tried another WWE Serial that was posted elsewhere in the forums and this also doesn't work.
Has anyone had any luck downloading this?

Yeah, but there is quite an "extended" changelog provided by HTC - I didn't know sth. like this from HTC until now...
I've just entered the serial from under the battery as well as the serial from my current ROM (energy june 11th) no luck with either
Don't see it anymore...

o2 uk serial works.

seems to be last O2 released rom, as well?
So - this is nothing new then.......................
I have emailed HTC to see what they are say.
I hate HTC for that. Why do they always release something and name it after sth. completely different. After a couple of customer-complaints and corrections they will change the information... Are there only idiots at work?
It was the same with ALL branded ROMs here in GER, and the famous SMS-Hotfix is still a RADIO...
HTC, you should rather care for your customers than going to court vs. Conflipper... and your E-Mail-support - it seems that the only condition to get an engagement in your customer support is being able to breathe autonomously... when I came from SE to HTC, I thought customer care could only become better - but HTC is just a whole freakin' mess...
BTW: a 2.07-ROM for EUR woud have been strange anyway...
Sorry, for getting OT...
lol, maybe it's a response test on us lot, , see how quickly it gets found when they put something on the server,
So is this really just a Radio upgrade? Because I'm currently on Stock 1.66 WWE Rom with Radio 2.10.50.07 from Middle East & Africa HTC site.

NEW HTC UPDATE for SMS enhancement

Hi everybody,
I read a lot about problems with the sms function, and I just noticed on HTC's website they have posted an upgrade for this problem in particular....
I saw I couldn't post the link here but you know how to get to the upgrade...
Just go to the HTC website and select the support section.
So I just thought i'd bring it to everybody's attention...my eyes are like a hawk attuned to HTC lol
Best of luck.
Joey
Can anyone tell me what problems these updates actually address? On the HTC website it just says SMS stability but doesn't explain more
We lost our files with the updates??
no no data will be erased, it's only a hotfix!
This hotfix will be unnecessary if you upgrade to the new ROM instead.

ROM update is like firmware update. They try to root out bugs or improve performance from the older version.
Yes, you can download the new ROM from htc.com. go to support link. You need to provide your phone serial number, just to check if this ROM is compatible to your device.

Thank you. I'm downloading now.
Best regards,
I am having really big issues with SMS handling.
I do have the 1.36 update and also have the SMS-hotfix.
I have imported aproximately 3000 SMS via MyPhone.
When replying to an SMS it takes on average 5-6 seconds before I can start writing. Is this normal? If a contact has alot of SMS's, then it takes even longer...
Apparently, HTC Messages is designed for less than 100 messages only.
I've lodged my complaint on HTC Support.
I encourage you, and everybody, to register complaints of this dismal messaging app.
It's the only way to get HTC's attention. And force them to do something about it.
I just got an answer from HTC support. Appearently all SMS, etc is stored in internal memory, so the more stuff you got in there, the slower the device gets. Guess I just have to start deleting...
Err, ah....
I was thinking of upgrading the ROM to the 1.36 and went to the HTC download page. There I found these versions available: Greece: 1.36.482.1, Portugal: 1.36.410.1, France: 1.36.406.1, Denmark: 1.36.403.1, Italy: 1.36.408.1, Europe: 1.36.401.1, Spain: 1.36.412.1, Russian Federation: 1.36.411.1, Sweden: 1.36.413.1, Germany: 1.36.407.1, Nederland: 1.36.404.1, East Europe: 1.36.479.1, Norway: 1.36.409.1. So what's the difference and how do I know which one to choose as I am not in one of the country's specifically named. I guess I could go for "Europe" but I must admit to being a tad confused.
Can somebody inform me?
Thanks
which country are you actually in?
Hungary and I do NOT speak the language. )

That's not it. HTC messaging is slow even if you have 30 messages. Normal Windows Mobile phone should handle several thousands of messages, before there will be any slow down. My previous phone, Asus P750 with only 64mb ram, can handle in excess of 20,000 messages, before it started to have a slight slow down. If HTC can't handle 20,000 messages, that's ok. We're not asking that much. But at least it should be able to handle 5,000 or 6,000 without any slow down. At the worst of the worst, it should be able to handle 3,000. Like any other windows mobile phone can.
SO don't swallow that BS explanation of HTC. It's wrong. There's something wrong with HTC messaging. THey'll have to admit it first, before we can expect them to dig in and root out the bugs.
HTC customer support is very LAZY. Damn TOO LAZY. Always trying to squeeze into an easy way out. We should not let them get away with this.
