Bye bye X10, hello DHD

So I've sold my X10 for £177 and have ordered the Desire HD.
Don't think ill be missing the X10. Even with the update its still only got a 65k colour screen, no flash, no multitouch and other things.
Wont be buying Sony again.

you got a DHD?
What use is that with out a Stargate!

I think ppl are moving to another phone too quick, eventually i personally beleive that the x10 would be a great phone if the update to 2.1 is released.
and if the bootloader is cracked, then the party will really start
i do not mind 65k colors
i do not mind no mt
i do not mind no flash
i do not mind the low volume (although in crowded area's you can barely hear the other side speaking)

This ain't the right place to share your personal opinion starting a new thread.
We all know Desire HD is better than X10. They have been released in a ... six months time range?
And now GTFO, we don't need you.

The only reason I'm still holding on to this phone is because I have optimism that maybe we'll get custom roms soon...otherwise, I'm dying to get something else just for flash support!

i totally agree with u

I really don't see the point in people posting these "I am leaving" posts.. who gives a DHD what you do???
The X10 supplies me with everything I require from an android device

The X8 is not getting 2.2 or 2.3

It's official, the X8 will not be getting any android updates whatsoever beyond 2.1

No idea, ask sony phaggyson, I guess they think cheap phones with great hardware that are more than capable of running 2.3 still wont get them good money even if they update it..
fkn companies, this thing is way better than the wildfire i can't get my head around why they don't wanna update it.

You're a bit late there.

You can use a custom ROM (for example the Racht's ones) to upgrade your OS Android to 2.2 or 2.3.

in future...i will never buy another SE product!
Goin to buy HD7 or any Nokia+Microsoft product...
but Android/SE.....
NEVER AGAIN!!

That's actually quite absurd! Bad idea Sony!

Custom ROM has some bugs so it is not fully FROYO and GINGERBREAD but it is in evolve so we will have good custom ROMs in future but BE PATIENT!

Phone with lower CPU can have froyo installed on it. X8 should be sufficient running froyo, either it cost lot of money to support X8 or SE think why should support 'old' series when they can make money from new one with upgrade OS.

I agree. This was my first smartphone, so I had no idea what I was getting; I just wanted a dirt cheap android phone I could mess around with. With all the mods, hacks, and especially racht's custom ROMs (I couldn't believe how crappy the stock ROM was compared to those) I've been able to experiment with, I have a much better idea of what I want out of my next android phone and what it will be capable of. As for SE, you're right: never again.

Agreed. I've just installed my first ROM (2.2.1 CM HACKDROID v0.12) on my X8 and there is no way i am going back to the original!! Works great apart from a few setbacks like vibration not working, unable to move apps to SD and locks on its own sometimes while i'm using it. But having said that it's still much better than the stock OS!!

hey mister, where did you got the screen shoot? can you provide a link? why rather give a screen shot either than link?
if it is true, i will never by SE product anymore, i will rather choose I-Phone 4 either than xperia x8

Thinking of getting this.

using rcht's rom... its awesome!!!

Wheres Zidzhu? Well............

Everybody has been wondering where Z has gone or been well I think I might have an incling where he might be. Well not where but what he is doing. Look at this post by Z:Z's post about MT and Unlocked Bootloader and that my friends is where I think he is. I personally feel the reason he has not been around for a while is because he is trying to get these things sorted for us. Like he said, we would not be able to change codes for the MT unless we have a cracked or unlocked bootloader. Well now we have the unlocked bootloader and he has all of a sudden dissapeared. Don't you think that is a bit unusual of Z to do something like that as the bootloader is unlocked. Well its obvious, he is now doing the things that couldn't be done when the bootloader was locked and I have this really strong feeling he is gunna come back with a grand opening of something like, "Full multi-touch for x10, 100% Legit" Like he likes to say hehe. Just maybe that is what he is doing. I hope I am right.
What do you guys think?

I think you're going to be disappointed

I think your very right.

Z
I have all the respect for your position, but I think that if he wish to tell us what he is doing, he would told us. And if he is doing say, full MT, 16M colors or a brand new 16-Core CPU emulator app, he has all the right doing it privately and surprise us when he wants it!

He forgot his XDA password.

Like everytime when he dissapeared, he is going to surprise us. Do you remember first FreeX10 Froyo ROM? He dissapeared for a month and then he came with working camera fix

you posted something like this every time when people come out with idea. its not wrong to try. this is developers forum...idea is always welcome for phone improvement. let give dev time to figure it out. Z found MT driver might be 1st step to do it. who knows...Z always come with full of surprise.

So because he asked our thoughts and I don't agree that is not allowed?
I don't think you will ever get multitouch, that's just my opinion.
I don't get mad because others think that it will, so I think conversely I deserve the same respect.

I read somewhere that he's gone for a holiday...
You know, this isn't his job. Just because he hasn't been here for a month doesn't mean he has to be working on something. Sure, if he is, that's great, but don't come here expecting him to release something..that's unfair for him.
All devs have lives out of doing this. They do this in their free time. They're human beings like you and me. You can't expect them to be on this site and make something new every week.

One thing that really annoys me is when people say he has left when no one knows if he has also I think he will come back as he hasnt said goodbye or anything like. He does this all the time. He dont need to give eta so why that mean he has left. Remember last time he was goin to leave he said and because everyone helped him keep up what he enjoys he stayed. He is coming back and if not I hope he is enjoying a nice cold beer relaxing with his other half

[LOL] Talking with Sony

Hey guys,
Before I start, I want to say that I know there's a
Thread like this new but I honestly could not
find it.

Today I used Sony's Live Chat service and asked a few questions,
most of which we already know but I still persisted to do it. XD
Also, I did this on my tablet if your confused as to why I'm using
Dolphin For Pad.

well, i've read a couple of "discussions" like this with sony and...don't know...the answers sony customer support give...sound like pre-recorded sh!t. Like talking to a bot. Has any1 ever had a bot in his y! list? that scans what you wrote and, when finding pre-defined text like "root" or "update" or "rom" it just gives the answers it was programmed to...
I mean...that's not a human responding there...the answers are way to...standard...and if you do some search you'll see that some answers there are actually identical with what others got asking similar questions...
anywayz..that's just my opinion...

Uum GENIUS ! My phone will explode if i root it or install a custom rom

So do other phone manufacturers endorse rooting?

Well, HTC nor Samsung outrightly discourage it. You see, I believe our forums provide a wealth of info (alpha-testing, beta-testing, bug-tracking, unheard of fixes, never-before-seen MODs, etc). You know, if I were a manufacturer, I'd actually finance forums like this!

they dont care abot poor pepole ...

Really???????

HTC or SAMSUNG just says that it's dangerous rooting their phones (and it really can be, if you don't know what are you doing). But SONY don't even talk about the subject.

This Is Funny ! Cant Stop Launging ! XDDD

This isn't all that funny. SE realised they did horribly on their first wave of phones, so they just gave up on them, and released a much better second generation (the 2011 Xperia line).
Those screenshots just make me feel bad for the person who had to put up with that. :/ No manufacturer would actively encourage rooting/Custom ROM installations - if they did, and people bricked their devices, they'd start blaming SE and then where would they be?
Just be thankful that the dev community for the X8 is so wonderful.

you make fun of it..
and i can' breath because i laugh to much when i read it.. LOLZ

i made a quick photo but with the phone the difference is very high...

Fantastic, its the only thing left that bugs me about the G3. Im pretty sure it affects the entire screen, not just text, so im looking forward to seeing if it improves the contrast.
Does it need a new Kernel? If so can it be on both KK and LP, since im not a fan of the current 20A build.

Wow ! You made my day !! I hope it won't be so hard to fix. I'm kinda new to android stuff, the lg g3 is my first android phone, and without this stupid oversharpening thing, it will be perfect ! Just one question, is it finally kernel related ?
