My HEad Hurts - XPERIA X8 General

I'm so tired of ANDROID
so much bored
I really dont want to use my phone
I'm so done messing with frameworks and custom roms
anyone who feels like me???

I'm actually getting to this point...i an so tired of roms that work for a week our ask then go on the fritz. This is mostly due to the faulty dk28 I'm running (thanks to samsung and sprint not releasing an official froyo) on my epic 4g. frustration mounting...

It wasn't the same with symbian

Android is a Linux, You must have the soul of a hacker. Of course You may be a normal user of your phone, play angry birds and call to your girlfriend vel boyfriend, wife, husband, mother, puppy ...

I just recently got into the whole rooting and custom ROM stuff... But I don't think I'll get 'bored' of Android, since I'm still using it as a phone, not some kind of toy.

his got a point thoug
voice clarity is nice in android phones lol

If you are going to buy new phone, think about HD2. You will never ever end with boredomness. Bored with Android ? Go to WM or WP7. Vice a versa .
And yes, it is a phone(send ur SMS's, make calls, play, take snaps) Android is just a big(ment to be free, but Sony raped us) plus.

Got my phone 1 month and a half, and I just take it for what it is: a *good* phone with internet capabilities, useful for my work and my personal satisfaction
But bored... hopefully not gonna happen...

I only bought this phone because it is a pretty cheap phone damn!
Only for mess around..

@suhel28 : I digg what you're saying man, I'm also abit tired of all the flashing/recovering that happened every week for atleast about 2 months now. Gotta find a good version to live with and wait untill a stable(fully working) rom exists. Thanks again for the framework btw.

I'm not getting tired of Android, just this phone. I want to be able to update to the latest Android whenever I want, I shouldn't have to rely on a third party for that.
Also, I don't think you're getting tired of the phone, you are getting tired of messing with it.

after more than two months, i also reached the point of getting tired with my phone. i go tired in flashing, changing the framework, changing the font, installing something here and there....
i hope i just got tired of my se x8 phone and not with android itself..... i even reached the point of selling my phone, although i still have sont buyers up to this time. SE just slashed the price of this phone in the philippines by 20%!!!!!!
i wanna get a sammy tab now!

Another one bites the dust!
Head over to BBHybrids.net the xda-developers for the BlackBerry world. I'm currently running a BlackBerry 9630 Tour with software upgraded to OS 5.0.0.230/50v7.15 Irtehun hybrid. It runs head and shoulders above the 4.7 image the phone came with.
I originally came to this site so I could learn how to mod my HTC Titan (PPC 6800). I'm now back because I picked up an HTC Dream (Google G1) and want to learn more about Android.
Theres no touch screen on that small thing
This is like driving a car to using a motorcycle
Bad analogy. Have you ever taken a motorcycle for a spin? If it didnt snow here 6 months out of the year, I'd trade my car in for a motorcycle instantly. Motorcycles are fun as hell and the gas mileage is 3x better than any car on the road.

Couldnt think of anything better, ive been on one and its great though.
I might be leaving as well to iPhone 3Gs 32 gig.. say what you all want lol. (I will probably get flamed.) But my goal is to jail break it and run android on it. :]
You can flash roms on your BB just as easy, if not easier, as flashing on your g1. Give it a few weeks you be getting flash happy again.

I think I need a support group.

I've had my Hero for a little over a week and on day 1 I found this forum and rooted. Ever since I've tried just about every 2.1 based ROM on the forums. Thanks XDA for creating a monster. After a year of having 3 phones I wasn't ever happy with I have probably my keeper. Android is just so much better.

You have definitely found the best place for Hero Tech and modification! Welcome to the group!
Hi Craig. My name is Matt and I have been flashing for 6 months. It has taken up my life lately and I have ignored important things such as Call of Duty. Every time I try to quit I have a relapse and flash again. I feel like I will never want to stop... I am addicted to flashing. I am a flashaholic.
So do we even want a 12 step program or do we al lhave a healthy addiction?

My fixes for ROMS is gettin so bad I'm buying multiple different phones in back alleys and loading up a different load on each one. It HURTS MAN!
While i flash alot. nowhere near as bad when i was a wm user..my wife always was yelling.. when is your phone ever gonna be fixed,lol at least with android all the roms pretty much work great.. so not as much time wasted installing this or that as with wm..
hi im chris and im def an addict for android. was not sure about rooting at first but always checked out latest roms until i finally got the nerve and did it and im hooked line and sinker rom and electronics junkie 4 life....
Hi my name is Anony, and I'm a flashaholic.
It all started when I was looking for a way to tether, and stumbled across the Race Condition. After a week of using it, I thought to myself "There has to be a better way!" Finally, after talking to the right google search boxes, I stumbled across XDA. First it started with Fresh ROM 1.0. Then Fresh 1.1. Then the Dev 2.1 builds. Over to Aloysius 1.0. Then to DamageControl. Then here I am, sitting pretty on Toast's sauce. Thinking about going back to DC 2.07.2 though. I miss my camera :[.
The real question is how many times can I flash this thing before the flash rom wears out!
Hi I'm Bert,
I'm addicted to Flashing ROMs/Dev-Rom testing on my HTC Hero. I have been doing this since Flipz introduced me to Freshhh... Now I can't remember what life is without flashing... I have lost much sleep and can not wait for my next 'fix'. I know I have a problem because my wife is always complaining to me also...
P.S. The 'F5' key on my keyboard is un-readable now all the paint has worn off, I'm scared that pretty soon I know it will have a hole right through it...

Do what I did with mine. Get her a Hero, then you get twice the flashing.
You can't lie to me! This is more like a den of enablers than a 12-step support group. I bet all you addicts have 2 Windows open; this one, and a second with the fresh toast thread open, so that you have something to read while you wait for the updated sauce.
Don't get me wrong, I'm right there with you....I'm just saying. Besides, rehab is for quitters.

Anyone happy with Sprint 2.1?

I've been on vacation and get back to see HTC has the 2.1 update and was surprised not to see more talk about it. So many threads about release dates and now its quiet. So who is using it and what are the pros and cons?
It's all about Froyo now.

No ones talking about it cuz its some bs. The official update didn't really do much. It is really fast and does fix some issues but nothing really. You lose root if you run root so if you want to try it use damages untouched version

I don't know what people were expecting, we've had 2.1 for months. My wife thinks it's cool tho, but she has a stock Hero and came from 1.5. The biggest change that I didn't realize was weather animation, I didn't know 1.5 didn't have them......
Everybody has been drooling and crying for 2.1 and now that its here all they can do is whine about wanting 2.2....there is just no pleasing some people........................

It's not that at all 2.1 was supposed to bring us live wallpapers, faster browser and so fourth but it didn't do any of that. It's ridiculus. And in the back of everyones mind we know that the only reason that sprint didn't deliver that was so everyone would choke up the money and get an evo or the less popular hardly heard of I1
After I installed the stock 2.1 ROM, my phone won't receive any calls. I can make calls, but not receive them. I spent over 2 hours yesterday with Sprint Customer Non-Service, and they were no help. I'm headed to the Sprint Store now to get my phone replaced, hopefully to a 1.5 so I can root that bad boy like I should have in the 1st place.
How come so many people thought we were getting live wallpaper and other advanced features of 2.1? Everything I read before going with a custom ROM was that neither moment or hero would get them because of weak specs.

Do you realize that? do you understand that i will go to sleep tonight and you will not even be on my radar? You will not even matter in any kind of existence what so ever. Your sole purpose as of right now is not even comprehend-able on this online forum. How does it feel when you get off your comfy chair at night and go to sleep knowing that you did absolutely nothing to contribute to any society what so ever. Im not sure you understand anything that goes on around you. Some people on this forum go to sleep thinking about their phones, some think about the next update or how they can contribute to this society...But no, not you, rather than say something useful you feel as if this society owes you something and we don't.
So go fly your little stealth fighter in your lonely world. Stay the **** out of ours.

Well my trusty hero which I only had for a a couple of months bit the big one yesterday. I went to the Sprint Store to get another one and all they had in stock for Android was a Moment.
So I guess I won't be around here as much.

The moment isn't a bad phone, I just pretend I'm running DarchDroid.

The Moment was rooted before the official 2.1 was released. They have it easy. An earlier version of the Samsung software updater let you run unsigned tarballs. So you just use that to install a custom recovery and off you go.
btw, great reference for the title. was one of my favorite books WAAYYY before the movie, they did a HORRIBLE job with Zaphod
good luck you going to sdx?
I prefer to pretend that movie never happened.
Either of them.

Argh I miss my Hero already. The themes, the ports of different roms. Just don't happen over there in SDX Land. Someone is working on a Sens UI port though. On the upside. Live Wallpapers work perfectly and so does the 3d gallery at the same time.

So wait they just gave you a moment instead, no questions asked? Im gonna try this today as my hero has been acting up and if i get a replacement it would be my 4th phone already. Sprint told me they hardly ever give you a different model phone.

So I hate this Blackberry I'm on...

So for those of you that don't know me, or haven't seen, my Evo, long story short got stolen yesterday before my Calculus III class. So today my mom sent me my sister's blackberry curve for a temp, as its going to take between 7-10 days to get my replacement evo. Let me just say that going from my rooted phone that exudes awesomeness, that this blackberry is garbage...I hate the keyboard and so tiny...and I can only have ONE alarm. Seriously? [sad face]
Evo >>>>>>> Blackberry. There should be more >>>, but we get the point.

Depending on the rom you use, some of the sense roms that are sense 2.0 based have a phone finder built in. Blackberry isn't bad, it's a business phone. It's not made to be flashy, it's just made to work. I don't like it since it doesn't fit my wants in a smartphone, but hey it does what it's made to do.

Yeah that is a bummer! As far as all the 'find my -' apps go, are there any that can have GPS ENABLED by instruction / a message?
Again, total bummer.

I completely agree, and that's exactly why I hate it; it doesn't fit what I need it to do in a smartphone. And I'm still kinda ticked that I can only have 1 alarm...and I have 2 different class times on m/w and t/th so changing it daily is a pain.
Yeah have found one that says it can remotely enable GPS and one stating that if off it can use network location. Guess I wasn't looking hard enough. That or it has been so long thought it wasn't likely. Damn, posts like these always get me thinking about having my phone stolen. Bummer.

Thanks, that seemed to work. If you can't tell, trying to use this as little as possible. ><

I hear you man. i have one for work and am not a fan. it works perfectly with a corporate server and all that, but it's damn near worthless as a civilian phone.
I can relate. I have a curve that work gave me. A lot of my friends have BBM, so I end up typing on that and I HATE it. i don't bother correcting typos b/c there are way to many with my fingers hitting like 50 keys at once. Good to know about the new alarm thing. That was bugging me too.

I agree, not ideal for the casual usage, like the evo...they said 7-10 days, I'm hoping for 6.

They told me 7-10 days last Thursday. Consider yourself lucky to have the BB......I'm on a Samusung A940.
funny as blackberry os 6.0 is pretty awesome. i don't like blackberries much but my wife loves hers. she hates touchscreens. i even had to but her that new flip blackberry sprint has, she wanted nothing to do with an evo or android.
get my point, everybodies taste is different.

And yes, I know. As I said I hate the blackberry, not that blackberry sucks in general.

So for those of you that don't know me, or haven't seen, my Evo, long story short got stolen yesterday before my Calculus III class. So today my mom sent me my sister's blackberry curve for a temp, as its going to take between 7-10 days to get my replacement evo. Let me just say that going from my rooted phone that exudes awesomeness, that this blackberry is garbage...I hate the keyboard and so tiny...and I can only have ONE alarm. Seriously? [sad face]
Evo >>>>>>> Blackberry. There should be more >>>, but we get the point.
Edit: Go Y2K post.

Throw a hybrid OS on it. Just download any BB OS, then go to C:/Program Files/Common Files/Research in Motion (RIM)...then extract the folder named "Java" and play around with the .cod modules.
I built hybrid OS's for years before I found Android.

Interesting...I may try that. Though I am only on this till I get me evo, and this is technically my sister's phone, so I may not, out of respect.
Sucks you got your evo stolen I returned my evo I got from sprint by using my upgrade the other day, waiting for the one I bought from Ebay now But in the meantime I am using a Blackberry curve, I hate this thing! For one its boring, the keypad is tiny, no angry birds, lol. I tried to make my wife take it, that only lasted on day though, lol. She calls it a blueberry and has been walking around the house saying "no evo no evo", now my kids have joined her! grrrrrr Hurry up mailman! I feel your pain
I have a 13 year old daughter, I offered to buy her the shift for an upgrade, she said shes just fine with her BB curve
