Notification / status LED only when not in Standby? - XPERIA X2 General

Hi everyone,
I noticed that the coloured notification / status LED is active only as long as the device is "awake". It turns off as soon as the X2 goes into standby.
That kinda defeats the purpose of a notifivation LED, doesn't it?
Or am I missing something in the settings?
Many thanks,
N.

Well, for anyone interested, this doesn't look good:

Feel free to comment.

wow, if the notification LED isnt even working properly then i've completely lost my interest in the Xperia X2... thats just a basic function that must be working on every phone. Including "high end" ones like the X2 once was when it was released.

Just to follow this up:
I've been in touch with SE support, and they're saying the X2 notification lights "should" be working even when the device is in standby. And they said I could send mine in for checkup. I'm considering that.
N.

Keep us informed on SE's reply...afaik it works in WM6.5.1 but not on WM6.5.3

Not much news here.
Sent my device in to Customer Service, who called to say that fixing the LED issue should not be a problem. Got it back yesterday, but nothing's changed, the problem is still there. Boooo, poor customer service!
So I'll send it in again. I've been given the name of the head of customer service so that they can take care of things.
Frankly the X2 is annoying me. Gorgeous piece of powerhouse hardware paired with completely f***ed-up software. It was just the other way round with the X1, but at least that device worked.

Blue LED is always on even with bluetooth off?!

Hi! I just got my bell ppc-6800 and everything is great, except the led on the top left corner is always on. Sometimes it is a dim green, other times brightblue, but mostly it does both at the same time but just blinks rapidly (like a dying fluorescent lightblub).
Before I take it back to the manufacturer, just wanted to see if anyone else had this problem and hope that there is an easy fix for this. Other then that the phone works great, but just want to make sure it will work ok
[edit]Turns out the phone was just defective. Got it replaced right over the counter for free. Thanks for the help though![/edit]
It is probably physically broken. You should replace the phone or have it repaired.
Personally, the LEDs on my phone constantly blink like mad and at one point I turned them off by disabling the AllLEDMgr driver only to find out that this driver also controls vibration.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\AllLEDMgr]
"Index"=dword:00000001
do you have the 6800 hacks download on there from www.trianglepowers.com
I had it on my 6700 and it was the first thing I loaded on my 6800. It allows you to turn off all the flashing lights ~ my bedroom no longer looks like the airport at night!
but I agree ~ sounds like you may have a lemon, and there may be more problems in the near future ~ I'd get it swapped out if at all possible!
I have heard of others having this problem and they need to exchange their phones.

[SOLVED]
Ok, so I took it back to the store. After an hour and a half between people in the store, people that owned the phone that were in the store, and people over the phone while I was in the store... I got my phone replaced!
But this does seem to be a problem affecting some units. I didn't get any details as to which model numbers this affects, but if you are a Bell user with strange LED issues, take it back and you will probably get it exchanged right over the counter for free.
P.S.: I tried the programs mentioned, and they still did not work. Actually, the LED was still mis-behaving even if the battery was removed and then put back in, BEFORE the phone had even gone through the HTC boot sequence (not even turned on yet).

LG KS20 directdraw and other bugs

So this is my first post in this forum so I 'll start with some naggin .
I am a proud owner of the lg ks20 which I absolutelly love.But its buggs are killing me.
First of all there is the free memory issue.I find it quite strange that a WM6 device with 128MB ram has only about 30MB free memory left.I mean cmon Vodafone and LG,we are talking about a huge 45 MB memory hole here.Any ideas on how to get rid of that?
Second serious issue with the is the lack of proper directdraw drivers.I hate the fact that I can not run any applications (with the exception of S2U2 whick works quite well) that use directdraw.Thats a great limitation to what one can do with this phone.
The hardware is all good,big enough ram,rom etc,top class CPU but the software sucks.
I know this is mainly an HTC forum,but I also know this is the right place to talk about WM phones when hacking and software development is concerned .
So is there any possibility to get things moving and resolve some of the phones bugs?
I have a KS20 too and would like to see some of that solved, too. But I guess we have to wait for the KS20 to be more common before there will be enough attention to get someone with enough knowledge to do something about it. I hope the English version of KS20 will come out soon and that it will get more people interested in this issue.

Did you install some strange software? OTherwise you should send your phone back to LG.
Battery always 100% and refuses to charge
Hi All,
I am new to the LG KS20.
It was working fine for 2 weeks, and now suddenly i find the battery status always showing 100%, and it just dies after a day of usage. Even worse, is that since it shows 100% always, it does not charge. When i try connecting the charger, it says battery is full, and the green LED light glows.
Can someone please help me out in resolving this issue.
Thanks you,
Jefferey Rayan
I have exactly the same problem - the 100% issue happend from one day to the other after about two weeks of use. The phone can then only be turned on by connecting it to the charger ( ac-adapter).
Some people in other forums claim it to a damaged battery, some to the 10a-ROM-version. It does not seem to be charged according to the message on the display and the greed led, but I am now about to check out if it really doesn't charge the phone. It turned it self off after about 1 minute of use yesterday, I connected it to the charger over night - today it functions properly so far...
So maybe it's "just" a matter of a wrong display message - in this case one would have to connect it to the charger every 2 - 3 days (guess the battery status) - not a very satisfactory solution, but maybe a solution until a new ROM arrives for non-branding devices.
Battery is dead - if it always shows 100%
I also have the 100% full loaded Problem!
It enoys me
LG has big Problems with their Batteries!
When you have that problem discribed above - your battery is the faulty crap.
Hardreset doesn`t help
So send your phone to LG to get a new battery,...
I am from Austria - LG Austria is not willed to help me - because LG Austria isn`t selling the KS20
The say like **** off - it`s not our problem
So I don`t know how I get a new battery.
My German Reseller told me that LG also has problems with delivering new batteries.
So a pice of crap - with Nokia they would never tell you - you don`t get support because you bought the mobile in Germany and not in Austria,...
Can anybody help me?
Shouldn`t LG Austria have to help me with my warranty?
GreeT`s Erich
I am also from Austria, bought the branding-free version at redcoon.at - they offer 2-year warranty, so I sent it back at the end of May. They probably sent it to LG Germany and it's still sitting there. I hope that according to my descriptions they will exchange the battery, otherwise I will be really pissed off. The repair takes 4 - 6 weeks they say. So I've bought a 400 EUR phone and have to stick with my old K750i for weeks, maybe for months.
I would not recommend anyone to buy this phone. It's on the market for 8 months now, no support, no drivers, no official updates. pure sh*t.
Anyone who wants a stylish mobile should go for the new HTC Diamond.
It's really worth the extra 100 EUR.
For those who have no warranty, I would recommend to plug it to the charger every 2 - 3 days until there are batteries available to buy directly from LG. Since everybody who got it's battery exchanged seems to be happy now, this should be the solution. IT DOES RECHARGE although it shows 100% full and the green led is on. I plugged it to the charger overnight and then it worked for about 3 days of extensive use without any shutdowns. So it's just the indicator that does not work.
Good luck!
The repair takes 4 - 6 weeks they say

Thats why I will not send my phone to LG!
I will try to get a new Battery.
LG- Service sucks damn hard,...
Greet`s Erich
i've got a MS25 Genius (american KS20 just without 3g, wifi, and VGA cam) from VIVO here in Brazil, and my battery stay always on 99%..
My clock is bugged too, always turns to the "Praga" clock when i sincronize with ativesync..
I'll not send my phone to LG Brasil! if they suyck in Europe they will suck a pretty much more in my ****ed up contry.. i don't want to stay 2 months without my phone..
Anyone's got a solution?
thank's!
I bought a new Battery - but not original LG.
Maybe a failure - because when I charge it - my phone turns off,...
The only advantage is it was half the price
I don`t knoe if LG has fixed the new batteries - because buying an original with the fuxing problem is sick
greet`s
back to initial thread, I also have a KS20 and got some 34/37MB after soft reset with default LG app disabled...
it doesn't appear to be that much and normal...
like nstamoul said: "we have to think about this issue!"
KS20 massive destruction
Im using the KS20, And sure, Sometimes you stumble upon some buggs, But its not that bad. Best wm phone I've ever had atleast

Does your Nexus Vibrate at restart?

Just wondering, since mine has never worked out the box.
Does the nexus vibrate slightly for these things whether you set vibrate or not? :
Long press to move things around the screens
When a call connects
When you start up the phone after turning off completely
Just going off my Hero, these things all have a "buzz" and to be honest I don't know if the Nexus does that. My Vibrate is still obviously broken, because it doesn't vibrate on anything whether I have it set to vibrate or not. I just wondered about the above vibrate stuff that isn't set by the user.
Dayzee
I think all new HTC phones vibrate when you turn them on, Mine does as well.
Also it vibrate when i hold an icon to move it. If your doesn't work? what you waiting for mate give a phone call to HTC for replacement.
Thanks Hassan - HTC are collecting it today - rang them on Friday. I just realised I wasn't sure if it did that the same as my hero - Ta for the info
Dayz xx
Its part of their Haptic User Feedback system
yes, mine does vibrate on boot.

Are you getting a repair or replacement?
I noticed you've rooted that's all and I thought the warranty was void?
Mine just does it on boot...I have Haptic turned off.
I have sent it with an unlocked bootloader, as there's nothing I can do about that, but it's not rooted anymore and is totally stock apart from that. I did mention it was unlocked bootloader, but the support guy seemed not really clear on that - he DID say that as long as it doesn't have third party software on it won't be an issue. But that's just a support guy. So I'm waiting to see. The issue is obviously hardware, was present out the box and not related to software. I'm hoping they still sort me out as the device was only days old.

[Q] Registry key to control X2 charge indicator LED

Hello everybody,
As there is no application to make X2 charge indicator LED notify you for missed calls. At least no compatible with X2, till now I tried about 5 cabs from different sources.
Does somebody know the registry key and values to control X2 charge indicator LED?
Just found it
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D660-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}
add Dword name LedRefCount value 0
New problem met.
Once the phone enter in standby mode, LED stop functioning until phone is wake up. So missed call LED notification becoming useless.
Is there any solution to make LED working when Xperia X2 is standby.
There's no way round this fault. I got rid of my x2 because of it.
I posted the fault on se forum and at one point an admin said they'd ask the engineers. Rest assured that was the last I heard. I think se abandoned the x2 some time ago now.

Sadly this is true. Just got my X2 back from the SE service center (after having to send it in twice), but they say there is no way to fix it. They blame WM6.5.3. Actually guess where they pointed me for an "unofficial" solution (XDA!).
Now I'll have to decide whether to keep or sell my X2. It's a shame - pretty strong piece of hardware absolutely crippled by software.
I've looked around for WM6.5.1 for the X2, but it's nowhere to be found.

Few X Compact problems.

Hi, thanks in advance for reading this and possibly helping me out.
I've got few problems with my Xperia X Compact stock Oreo, probably new, but I bought it from other person, not a shop so I don't have any document for that.
After running it first time I had to upgrade it right from the bottom, Marshmallow, so mayby it was really new back then.
But lets get to the problems I have right now :
- When someones calling me and I have phone in my pocket, after pulling it out screen is maximally dim (had few phones, never with that super life hardening FEATURE..).
- - - - - phone only vibrates for like 2 seconds, at my loud work I often don't hear and feel phone ringing in my pocket.
- Accelerometer is absolutely not working, checked with inphone technical support program.
First two problems seem software ones or it's normal guys ?
Third is hardware one for sure, but without any document of purchase of the phone I'll have to give it to local phone service, right ? Sony will pee on me for sure.
I'm from country that suffered biggest defeat at this years World Cup.
34.4.a.2.70 thats the version i use, stable battery life and everything okey, try flashing this rom, and full reset
I have 34.4.A.2.50 and no new updates available, then almost same version like You and something's wrong.. I don't want to flash new ROMs except for Pie when it comes.
Edit. Rotation is surprisingly working again.. By doing nothing just creating new thread here.. Rest as it was..
