Hi
I am having a problem with Market.
Whilst downloading an App, Market crashed (it appears to do this quite of ten with 2.1). However, I now have an App that constantly says 'Installing' in the downloads page of Market but never actually installs.
I have tried clearing the cache in Market and force stop but nothing gets rid, it is always there; even though the actual App is no longer on the phone as I bought the paid version.
I have tried everything I think, to get rid of this..... Anyone Ideas ?
i am having the same exact behavior with the market
the application was TEST from SE developer
go to setting/application/manage, scroll to find the application that has been installing since like forever, and uninstall.

Does anyone else experience Bluetooth connection drop when transferring a photo from the X10 to PC over Bluetooth?
I haven't had this problem before the 2.1 update. I have removed the device and added it again on my PC and still Bluetooth connection drops a quarter way through the transfer.
It keeps saying the transfer was cancelled by the Bluetooth device (the X10)
Very strange.

Anybody from India got the update 2.1?
Posted by JAGUY85
Wow this is a long thread...
Well after leaving the
fold since P1 and trying Nokia N82, LG KM900, Samsung Jet and HTC Aria, I am returning to with the Xperia X10 (since 2.1 is now possible)...
I get my model on Monday...but it is locked to AT&T. Can someone direct me to the easiest ways to do/find the following:
1) Unlock from AT&T
2) Root it [Given it will come with 1.6 do I root with 1.6 first or update to 2.1 then root?]
3) Flash to Eclair 2.1 update
4) Collection of best apps for Xperia X10
This would give me a great head start as I eagerly anticipate the arrival! I'M BACK (almost).

Congratulations.You are making an excellent choice in the X10 lol Its been one hell of a rollercoaster ride for us but with us finally getting 2.1 and the news that a custom ROM could well and truly be on the way it is all starting to smell like roses around here.
Just go to the XDA developers site forums,scroll down and choose the XPERIA X10 Android Development link.Everything you've asked for is there in the top most popular threads.The reason why I aint giving you specific links is because there are now so many different methods to do the things you are asking for that I think you should look for yourself and choose what method is good for you.
Also this guy is pretty up to date with everything X10 and can be very helpful

Still waiting for the UK networks to release this.
Dates seem to be; Orange, T-Mobile - end of Nov, O2 apparently are looking to release on Monday.
Nothing confirmed from Vodafone.

Hi ,
Anyone from india got his X10i updated to 2.1 for indian region.
Posted by caff111
I was told on XDA that due to separate partitions on 2.1's X10, all those preinstalled apps that remove using Titanium backup are in /system, the storage space value we look at is for /data (that's why even after un-install some of the defaulted apps, the internal storage space doesn't seem increased), one way to save on data space is to push all the apps to /system, only pitfall is that market will not be able to update them but... if those apps that never get updated, /system would be a great place for them to live.
Anyone know how to move some of the apps to /system from /data? Thanks !

that's what she said!
I don't have any O2 speific issues as I don't have an O2 handset, but if you're going to use the Global Generic flasher from xda there's a bit of faffing with Windows7 64-bit and java 32-bit. Read their forum for the workarounds (I think it's about page 124 onwards that are useful for that issue).
The Generic Global has all the Asian language support too. The Chinese keyboard I find particularly good as you slide up on a letter for CAPS and down on a letter for punctuation so no switching screens for numbers and marks etc and fewer presses for capitals. The Generic also doesn't have the Google Voice Search app which I found useful before. I can send you the apk for it though or you can google voice search 2.1 apk.
Also, rooting 2.1 with the xda guide on super1click works. I did it and I've removed moxier (what a waste of time) and quadrapop.
Good luck!

The 2.1 update has fixed some functionality for me, but killed others.
The most annoying thing it has killed is email notifications. Before the 2.1 update, I would get email notifications as soon as they arrived in my inbox, just like a text message. Now it doesn't work. I have to manually open the gmail app and press refresh.
Any idea how to fix this guys?

@Muhammad-Oli & @Lostsoulz
Settings -> Accounts sync -> check Auto-sync & Background data
and
Settings -> Accounts sync -> your gmail account -> check Sync Gmail
should fix the gmail sync notifications.

Thank you. But can you or anyone else point me to a method to unlock the AT&T model? I don't believe I see this on XDA Developers...nothing proven anyway.

I Already Had that done just seams to be delayed is they a way to check the refresh rate?
Posted by Hobbs
I also removed Moxier and Quadropop using Titanium Backup.Good to have Moxier off the phone.Never used it.
Posted by Ricky D
@Lostsoulz
Really? I found I get them about the same time, occasionally faster on my phone than on my PC. Did you check the background data box? If not then it won't refresh after a few moments of the screen locking. Also, might be obvious, but make sure the data signal is strong. I've found my data strength isn't as good since the 2.1 update; more temperamental.

Is there any natural way of closing the browser after using it? Not using task killer, with 1.6 we could exit by pressing the menu button, something is seriously draining my battery lost 10% in 30mins screen is taking just over 50% and the screen is not at fall brightness android systems is taking 17% browser taking 12???

I've not seen any easy way to close the browser. The only way I know without having to go through a task killer is repeatedly press the back button. Not convenient if you have been browsing for a while.
Posted by glorfingal
re: the browser .... hit menu, select "windows" ... hit the "x" for all the open ones. This leaves just the
default home page which can be closed with the back key ..... that's what I've been doing so far !

No one has an unlock method for the AT&T model? Even an online pay service? As long as it works.
Posted by Ricky D
@JAGUY85 I've not tried any unlocking service myself with the X10 but in the past with other
phones I've used davinciteam and it's been fine, but by the looks of it they haven't got an unlock for the X10 yet.

Try System Panel, its an excellent task manager/system info viewer, it can help with simply closing apps that are giving problems, overall though you dont need a task killer, the Android system handles tasks very well on its own.

both my phone and my PC companion said there is a 2.1. android update available. But it failed to update.
I wanna know if it got anything to do with my phone version.
I think it's Germany Version
the kit is : SI 1232-2950.2 DE
I live in America, american computer, is that a reason why it wont update? need help soon.
If I have to manually download the updates, please tell me where to download and how to install.

How far do you get with the Update process?
What are you using for an internet connection?

Only the second step, when it was "preparing". it failed to update after that.
I have cable broadband internet, running on Wi-Fi. I have an excellent signal, running on Wireless-N devices.
UPDATE: I finally got it to update. It's finished update, now just waiting for it to load. Thanks to Hobbs for your concerns. It seems my computer needs a restart.

I finally get my Xperia tomorrow but it seems no one here is privy to ways of doing so? For real?
Posted by Ricky D
@JAGUY85 do you know what OS version you'll have? I'm not sure if 1.6 methods will work for 2.1. Either way, the xda guys have chat about this and they seem to have working solutions. Proceed with caution.

I am guessing it may come with 1.6.
Thanks for the link...it's a long read but I'll get started.
