[Q] Whats the status with Android - Touch GSM General

i have been waiting a long time for a 100% working version of android for our elf,elfins
its like this project has come to a stand still.

xperia x1
i have same problem with xperia x1

My knowledge of Android can already work on the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1, this rom Android already developed and distributed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1294999

well, you can atleast run Android in elf/in right?
we can't expect too much from our ancient 201mhz TI OMAP processor.

First wait and see if it will get 6.5!!!
So far all that's know about WM7 is that it's planned for sometime next year. Whether it will be compatible with the current hardware, or whether MS continues WM after being crushed to pieces from the combined forces of Android, Symbian, MacOS/iPhone, BlackBerry, webOS, ALP, ... - nobody knows...
(Unless maybe Nostradamus, but I don't know that either... )
it will work..we just need to work on it
btw 6.5 is up in rom section
cheers
6.5 is beta not the actual one, have to wait and see at MWC09
so when WM6.5 is released...we ll be able to have it on our current Xperia x1 or do we need to buy a new piece?
The more interesting question is whether there'll be an official and legal update.
If there's an update for a technically similar device, like the Touch HD or maybe even Diamond2, there'll very likely be a cooked ROM for the X1.
But first of all, Microsoft has to release 6.5...
It will still take some time for MS to release WM7. My guess is - not before summer 2010. And devices shipping WM7 maybe christmas 2010.
Until then, WM 6.5 will have to do. However, if the performance will not increase, I will stick with WM 6.1. The speed of all WM 6.5 betas is imo just awfully slow and I have my doubts that this will change with the final version. Even the work-in-progress models with an obviously newer OS version - Touch Pro 2 and Diamond 2 seen on YouTube - are not as fast as current WM 6.1 phones.
So lets wait and see. My guess is, that I will switch to another phone when WM 7 is available.
I think I will change another phone when WM 7 is available....
Maybe thant time,there will be a phone w/ 2GHz cpu
The thing is that X1 is not capable for some features designed for WM7.
The most noticably: the gestures - X1 does not have any accelerometers.
My best bet is to get another phone at then

Gestures will supposedly work by way of built-in camera. Accelerometers are not required. At least, this is what the WM7 info leak stated.

POLL: Do you think the XPERIA will get updated to WINDOWS MOBILE 6.5?

I sure hope they do!
I really wanna use the marketplace!
I don't think so but I would really like it!
anyways, as long as Diamond 2 & Touch PRO 2 get updated (and they will), we will have a nice custom rom for us
2 words for the people that 'think SE will'.....
.....DREAM ON !
I think they will. Plus there are the custom roms if all else fails.
I think they will, because they allready have provided us with 1 update and there is another one in the making.
So they are trying to make an effort.
And either way, we will have a rom with 6.5. Heck, we allready have
They don't. Its like win on PC - if U buy win98 U can't upgarde to winME for free. Licences problem. But dont worry - we find WM 6.5 for xperia on this forum
They will
Microsoft offers the update for free and it´s up to SE if they want to give it away!
In a chat with Microsofts nordic Business Area Manager Peter Wissinger he gave us this answer:
Jan Johannesson: Hej, Kan jag uppgradera min Xperia X! till Mobile 6,5. mvh Jan Johannesson
Peter Wissinger: Nej - Sony Ericsson har inte aviserat att X1 skall få en uppgradering. Tycker dock att den är grymt bra som den är.

What about WinMo7 on Xperia?
I saw this post on Engadget.Com
I think lots of XDA-dev.com visitors know this site.
On Engadget they've spotted a video about Microsoft with (probably) Windows Mobile 7.
On that video, I saw a man (walking down the street) with Xperia X1 on it
Although this is just a video ... but it would be cool to have WinMo7 on Xperia
Just look for yourself
Videos:
Engadget.com
Microsoft Spot
Reckon ur missing an option for voting: an option for "I hope SE produces an upgrade!"
Seriously though, i see two camps here. There are XDA members who say "nope, no upgrade" (cause of X2, too costly etc), and those that say "deffo upgrade" (cause of R3A, OS from MS is free, etc).
Who knows, but i sure hope they do. Otherwise our awesome chefs will have one ported from who knows where in little more than a few hours.
Makes you think doesn't it.. it can't be that hard to make a rom now can it?? (excluding testing of course - but there's an idea.. maybe Sony Ericsson can release an alpha version to XDA - with all the users on the forum we can have it bullet proof tested within days!)
Not a chance.
1. It's pointless to update an outdated product with new system if SE can't make profit out of this action.
2. Since HTC is the ODMer, SE have to pay HTC again for making the new ROM
3. WM6.5 and WM7 require some special hardware design which X1 doesn't have. And M$ even require new WM logo on specfic place of all new WM6.5 hardware
4. SE have to pay twice the lisencing fee to M$.
5. Not good to SE's new phones (not only WM X2, but also other high-end ones)
I think they will, because Sony Ericsson want the Xperia to be their high class series. And they won't be able to compete against other brands, if they don't give their users updates and good service.
I dont think we will get 6.5.
Cos in this economy sitsuation SE probly will effort more to selling new phones, and especially to new Idou.
Since Xperia aint 100% SE phone like upcoming Idou will.

SE have made plenty profit with the high price that we paid. Also, MS have dropped the requirement for the WM Logo (check engadgetmobile / pocketnow / wmpoweruser).
You might be right on the ODM aspect. HTC have been..painful (ref: Kaiser issues).
On your last point hopefully SE's new phones have more than just a ROM update to get people to buy them. Besides - a company that has goodwill for supporting their phones will have 10 points in my book over a company that doesn't. No names mentioned.
As HTC have no plans for either the Pro or Diamond (v1) to have 6.5 (same age as the X1) and based on past performance from SE I really don't expect 6.5 from Sony Ericsson directly.

i am sorry but since when the X1i is the same age as the Pro and the Diamond???
The latter two are a lot older phones and their specs are much lower too compared to the X1i. If i remember correctly MS specifically mentioned the required specs to run 6.5 and neither the Pro or the Diamond fit within those specs but the X1 does
No, it won't, not officially anyway.
It'll get it inofficially, with custom ROMs.

Then you weren't around when I was having to make the choice between getting the X1 or the Pro. At most a month between them, and that's because the X1 was late.
the x1 is the same age as the htc hd and thats not getting a upgrade.
its not going to happen.
1 - sony will argue that it was made for 6.1 and there is no reason to upgrade.
2 - sony want to sell there new phone
3 - the cost would be too high to make a new 6.5 rom for a 6.1 device (the r3 is just improving on what is already there, thay have already overcome most of the problems in the x1 rom and not going to start again with a 6.5 rom)
I think artesea is right! Going by SE's past they wont release anything!
I remember seeing you on my-symbian around with that whole p990 fiasco. I had a m600.
But I dont worry about that official crap anyway This poll should've been on the official SE page but not on xda-developers...where the url is already the answer to the question!
Long live xda-developers

WinMo 6.5 on Xperia is very possible! According to April 10th article

"...Robbie Bach, president of Microsoft's Entertainment and Devices Division, stated last week at the CTIA Wireless 2009 trade show, “We expect all the major operators to continue to support Windows phones going forward. In fact, by this fall, when Windows Mobile 6.5 releases, we'll have over 10 phones available in the U.S. alone, and you'll see that number continue to grow.”
Said line of Windows Mobile 6.5-supporting devices will include the HTC Touch Pro 2 and Touch Diamond 2, two handsets that have been announced since the MWC show in February, and there will also be the Elektrobit Satellite phone, which should come with the OS. In addition, a wide range of existing Windows Mobile 6.1 devices are also slated for upgrade to the upcoming platform, and among them we can count the HTC Touch Pro, the AT&T Fuze, and the HTC Touch Diamond.
For what it's worth, there will indeed be three new mobile phones released with the Windows Mobile 6.5 platform on them, yet it is uncertain whether more such phones will come out later this year, or the “ten phones” Robbie Bach mentioned also include the upgradeable ones. There are some companies that announced their support for Windows Mobile this year, such as HP or LG, but no details on upcoming devices from them made it into the wild yet..."
Full version here:
http://news.softpedia.com/news/Windows-Mobile-6-5-Comes-on-Ten-Phones-in-2009-109155.shtml
My Opinion:
As we know Sony Ericsson was very dedicated to make X1 as a very high-end phone to compete with iPhone, Blackberry, and G1. And were trying to get the latest and best windows mobile software for Xperia as WinMo 6.5 was already in plans during development of X1 (rumors all around about this on web). But 6.5 was yet not ready by X1's release so they went with customized 6.1 instead. Now Windows Mobile will be coming out at end of 2nd or 3rd quarter of 2009 and matter of 6.5 on Xperia just depends on how much Sony Ericsson is dedicated to X1 and its "maintenance" phase (known as most expensive for companies) especially when last month Sony Ericsson were running into financial issues and almost considering a split between Sony and Ericsson. But the good news are 1st X1 is still SE's most recent high-end device, 2nd the new R3A software is still to come and since beginning of this month SE enters back the Korean market with new set of devices and one of them is specially customized Xperia X1 for Korea, so X1 will still be a freshly device there when Windows Mobile 6.5 comes out. So we'll see, who knows what to expect from Sony Ericsson at this point.
Well for most of XDA forum readers, it doesn't realy matter. I am using WM 6.5 Beta right now, wnd when the final version comes to ANY device on the planet you can be sure aswell, that it will be ported
Hell you can have WM 6.5 on 3 years old Tytn 2...
wow awesome - rly hope they do now ! since it was planned for win 6.5 in the first place!

Yeah, I would also love an official 6.5 rom instead of a custom Rom.
I don't say the custom roms are bad, far from it :-D
But i prefer official stuff frpm the company too..
So R4A would be 6.5 update?
Anyway, nice to hear this news
I am currently on Itje's 6.5 ROM and it works great but i would also prefer an official release and support from Sony Ericsson for Windows Mobile 6.5.
its gona cost sony a fortune to upgrade to 6.5 on xperia,**** loads of licensing deals and tons of money wasting
whats going hapen is that we are going to get a very good custom 6.5,and sony will launch x2 with 6.5 or something, no way in hell they are going to give us free 6.5 upgrade,but thats what i think,lets hope for some good news
It depends...

I would have agreed with you as your theory is very valid, but don't you remember that during the X1's development Sony Ericsson there was a multiple information leak about Xperia having WM 6.5 but wasn't developed fast enough for X1's release, so my suspicion is that SE could have already purchased Windows Mobile 6.5 software for X1's back then, but no one knows as there is not enough information. I mean, after all were are definitely gonna get a ported WM 6.5 no matter what, but hey! I wouldn't mind an official build 6.5 straight from Sony Ericsson
It would be nice to have wm6.5 but i would prefer wm7. My X1 would be in trash in after 1 or 2 years anyway.

WinMo 6.5 on Xperia is very possible ???
I disagree:
WinMo 6.5 on Xperia is NOT "very possible": is a REALITY
Go to the ROM development subforum and check for your self
Keep checking every day and be preapred for even more big surprises soon

I just want to clear whether information you referred to was about upcoming "cooked WM 6.5 that is ported to X1 from HTC's" or you really meant the official release from Sony Ericsson?
The 2005 PDA only device ran Windows Mobile 5 but it has been upgraded to 6.1. So that shows alotta things is possible.

2.2 Petition / lobbying

I really think we have to do something very strong to make Sony realize they have to take care of us and give us Froyo without waiting for this silly Timescape/Mediascape nonsense update delay.
What do you think wille be the best collective action?:
-Petition
-synchronised mail (everyone send a mail to SE at a coordinated time)
-thousands of comments on this pages:
http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/produ...-upgrade-in-q4-2010/comment-page-10/#comments
-massive customer support calls
.... any idea
In my opinion, being a SE dedicated user since my K790, SE will give us a few updates including 2.1 but that will do it for this device.
2.2 (or 2.4, whatever) will be released on the X11 or whatever the next Xperia Android device is.
The reason is new business along with SE's continual use of a custom UI over a standard OS.
I had x1 and now x10, but if sony don't get Android 2.2 then I am selling this phone and not getting anything else from them again (would buy HTC instead).
/\ That's for sony hopefully it works
Ill say the petition and post it on any cellphone forum you could know,the point is even if sony ericson dismiss it for now,it could hurt further sales.

I agree; it's not as if SE spent all the time and manpower to build their UI for just one device.. X10 is their first dip in the pool, and the loyal fans are sadly being taken for a ride through this experiment.. and their next Android device will (hopefully!) learn from the shortcomings of the X10.
I'll probably get an X10 if it's rooted, but let's be honest, that seems pretty unlikely. I might go for a Nexus One if it gets cheap in a few months. (my options are limited since I need the 1700 AWS band for 3G to work on T-Mobile US)
Do you guys really think SE is going to care if there's a petition out there? They've got their own slow and puzzling way of doing things and show no signs of changing.
I think mass emails would best. Someone needs to write a letter and then we can copy it and all send it to sony.
Whilst the idea of a petition is good and constructive, i doubt it will make very little difference.
SE are already aware of how important the latest version of the Android OS is to its X10 customers.
They have an official blog which was designed to communicate with and to receive feedback from it's customers.
From the begining customers were campaigning for mulitouch and 2.1.
Infact potentials customer were campaigning for 2.1 before release (whilst the official release was delayed)
Since the announcement about 2.1 in Q4. All the customers on that blog are also campaigning for 2.2.
I think their problems are with the integration of the UX(Time and MediaScape) with android (which caused the original delayed release).
Funny thing for me is i'd rather take the new OS updates over their UX.
honestly, i think the UX is a piece of crap, i never use it.
Just wait till you can root it and have 2.2 on it, just a waist of energy doing a petition to se....

The UI doesn't even seem all that customized. What? The timescape as the home interface was a UI? Looks like a freaking app to me.
X10 has one of the best hardware you can ask for the moment. But no software to take advantage of the hardware just isn't right. Q4 for a 2.1 update?
Please, 2.2 is out already.
SE already lost me. My N1 is coming on Tuesday. And with 2.2 out, x10 will probably hit ebay soon or after a 2.1 update. Unless SE grows a pair and hand us 2.2 like in one month.
I hate to rag on the x10 but the phone was just not what I had expected and I ask myself, I wait for this phone?
4 inch screen won't mean jack when a 3.7 inch can view flash videos. And so far we don't even know if SE will even hand us 2.2. And that's the sad part.
SE screwed this phone. They shouldn't have gone with custom UI. It is laggy even with the best hardware available. Horrendous.
My rant is over.

any device with root is better than x10 , let's support root team because with root ,there will not be any problem at all
If timescape and mediascape were a mind bogglingy good interface that is integrated perfectly into the main UI I would say "fine. I can see why they are being a bit slow about it", but for crying out loud, they are just a couple of apps that belong in the damn market place.
I decieded to go ahead and make the petition,might be for nothing but hey why not.i just need your help to corect my statement and improve it if you fell like it,thats the text i wrote for the petition.
We would like to suggest a path for the future development of the Sony Ericsson (Xperia X10, Xperia X10 mini and Xperia X10 mini pro)
Some recent development on the Android platform, have made the current OS software 1.6 outdated. Most of the current product sold by your competitor are currently running on 2.1 and some already getting the new OS software 2.2.
The OS software version 2.1 have been announced for the end of the current year to be available on your Xperia x10 line, but that update will still put your product behind the competition since even older device will be running OS software 2.2 at that time.
The hardware specification of the X10 line is quite impressive and should in theory be able to be quite competitive. Sadly the hardware is extremely limited by the software ,preventing us the user to use the full capacity of your device and make most of the application available for Android impossible to use ,since they need the version 2.1.
Wireless technology is an integral part of everyday life and we has customer or future customer would like to request the new Android OS version 2.2 to be implemented instead of the 2.1.
We believe it would serve Sony Ericsson interest as well, making your product competitive and expend your user base. As you know the Android platform is rapidly growing and update is the key of that success.
We hope you will understand our concern and demand.
It's obvious we have to make a sound to sony ericsson. They need to know what customers want and at least try to give them what they want. I don't have my x10 yet, but I will be buying it next week.
I've already checked out timescape, it is essentially an Application, with customized libraries and a plugin manager etc. In fact there are 3 different apps voor timescape present in the system. They use SE's self designed libraries and SE's self designed permissions. These libraries and permission are present in the x10 system software.
And I'm not a good programmer, just a n00b, but I don't know if anyone would be able to port these libraries and permissions in let's just say an app. If this is not possible then SE will always need to customize the Android system with it's own UI before handing the update to end-users.

Sony Ericsson: Regarding X8 update? to 2.2/2.3

I recently asked Sony Ericsson for an Xperia X8 2.2 an official update, I was not expecting a reply but they did.
Thank you for contacting the Sony Ericsson support centre.
We can advise the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini, Mini Pro and X8 were all tested on Android 2.2 but did not improve the handset but rather diminished it as it started to run slower and crashed frequently which will not have improved the user experience.
The decision was then made to keep these handsets on Android 2.1 as they were originally designed to go up to Android 2.1 and no further, however as Android 2.2 was requested by our users the handset was tested.
Once we were able to update the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 to Android 2.3 we then also tested the Xperia X10 Mini, Mini Pro and X8 with this Android platform, however it again diminished the handset.
Sony Ericsson decided to keep these handsets on Android 2.1 so the handset would perform at its highest. As advised we will continue to release system updates for the handset to try and improve it as much as possible, however this will not be performed by updating the Operating System to Android 2.2 or 2.3.
We can only apologise for the inconvenience caused and will ensure your feedback is passed on to the relevant department to be looked into.
For further information on Sony Ericsson products, services and support please visit sonyericsson.com.
Should you require any further assistance then please do not hesitate to respond to this email or call our customer support on 08705 237 237.

Hmmmm..........I'm pretty sure the custom made by devs don't crash I'm guessing they can't be bothered.
The reason is simple: they don't want to upgrade OS for us because that upgrade doesn't bring them profit.
It (the above reply) is just a way to fool noob users to stay with 2.1 happily.

Why don't you reply to them? Attach links to custom roms including 2.2 and 2.3 on this forum and ask if they are idiots or they have idiot developers? Ask exacley what they tested, what doesn't work, what exacley what is slow, ask when they are planinig updates, what kind of updates...
Be stupid and BOTHER THEM with question =)
If few individuals can make [email protected], I still wounder how big companie such as SE can't do it.
I agree with post above > no money -no new android. So much for customer service.
I'm guessing i won't be buying another SE anytime soon, aldough I realy liked the brand.
Yeah, android 2.2 and 2.3 used to crash on X8's stock kernel. If they modified the kernel for the newer version of android it would have stopped crashing. But I guess they took a look at it, decided it's too much of a work for them, and dumped the project in order to focus on newer phones
As for slowing down - if drivers were meant for 2.1 of course it slowed down. If they made a proper 2.3 update for X8 it would run smooth as baby's ass.
Bullshitters.
i have a bit....
we all know hardware of W8 is the same of X8
after coming update 2.2 or 2.3 for W8 (not our X8) send them this request with this silly answer
when they say again :
we then also tested the Xperia X10 Mini, Mini Pro and X8 with this Android platform, however it again diminished the handset.

sony ericsson
sony ericsson just want us to buy new phones. why can a cutom rom handle 2.2/2.3? SE is stupid
oh my
I think that don't want update the android version .. Simple =/
hi
Fo r me they won't do it because tmost of the people now are practical if they upgrade the
phones with cheaper value the sales of phones with cheaper value will increase but the phone with higher value will decrease in sales

The reason is simple: they don't want to upgrade OS for us because that upgrade doesn't bring them profit.
It (the above reply) is just a way to fool noob users to stay with 2.1 happily.

Very True. Now we have ICS running very smooth.
I think the 2.2 roms that are running smooth here, are because they have no additional software running in the background. If you have SE software running in the background and SE apps installed, of course it will be slow.
