¤¤¤ For Anyone That Will Or Has Returned Thier X10 - A NEW AT&T Android Phone ¤¤¤ - XPERIA X10 General

As of today the Motorola Bravo was officially announced by AT&T.
Once its rooted, has the bootloader cracked, Roms available and OC'd it should be a great phone to acquire.
Even stock the specifications look impressive.
This is an informative thread, I'm not saying its better or worse than the X10 but at least there will be another option for unsatisfied users of the device past and present.

I don't think so. Maybe not so beautiful as X10, but it has multi-touch, HTLM, and it's DLNA enabled. My X10 does not have thoese things.

I think I've gone blind.

ya this looks awful, spec wise it's backwards, slow cpu, bad camera, small memory card.
thanks for informing us tho

So you've decided to spam us in hopes that we'll buy your phone?

yay 3mp camera!? what ?! wait my K800i has 3.2mp! x10 has 8.1mp camera
yay 800mhz processor vs x10 has 1ghz
FM RADIO well yes its a plus but ...my MW600 has a radio built in!
MOTOBLUR interface: aggregates Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, and Gmail .. wait who still actually uses Myspace still?! x10 TIMESCAPE has all of these and intergrates your more common POP mail acct
it has 2.1 YEAH give you that one for the time being ... altho there are other Androids out there that still are on 1.6 ...recently discovered that the LG 540 optimus is running 1.6 Android! ( Yes X10 owners we are not alone in the 1.6 world!!!)
2gb micro SD compared to 8gb micro SD on the X10 ..
the rest of the functions are pretty much the same as the X10 or infact any Android based mobile!
Thanks but no thanks the massive drop in camera quality would be a big minus point for me!

i told myself, never buy a motola any more because their brand is always craptatic. Droid X anyone?

I would keep my xperia

Searching through the net and browsing the comments section of the market, one sees that many are still running Android 1.5 so, we aint that pre-historic

For those who are curious,
http://developer.android.com/resources/dashboard/platform-versions.html
Pretty sure that 16.4 % consists mostly of X10 users.

800mhz - if it is the same latest snapdragon like in Desire Z, then it has the same processing power as older 1ghz snapdragon and uses less energy.
looking on strict ghz is like comparing photo cameras by their megapixel count.

thanks for posting...but AT&T data plan sucks! so i will just leave it.

Wonder why the other cell phone thread got moved and this one says here...
Mods?

NEW: The HTC Wizard Communicator

HTC Wizard: early photos and specs [ 02:00 ]
Source: http://www.pocketpcitalia.com/
The web site Pocket PC Italia has posted early photos and specs of HTC Wizard communicator, which is positioned to replace HTC Magician(the model known as T-Mobile MD Compact, I-Mate Jam or QTek S100 depending on the operator). The communicator is powered by Windows Mobile 5.0. Its QWERTY-keyboard is pulled out from one side in an unusual manner. Besides HTC Wizard has stereo speakers and a 2.1-megapixel camera with the flash. As this info appeared before the official release, the specs can still be changed.
The specs of HTC Wizard:
* GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
* EDGE
* Processor OMAP 850 by Texas Instruments
* Memory - 128 MB ROM, 64 MB RAM
* Screen – 2.8” TFT, QVGA
* Interface - Mini USB, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi 802.11b and IrDA
* Expansion slot for Mini SD cards
That'll be a shame if it only has a MiniSD hole. I'm sure the 4 & 8GB SD cards will start being available when the Wizard is released. You would have though 128MB too.
Oh well, fingers crossed
Here is the actual link -> http://www.pocketpcitalia.com/cms3/templates/PPC-NEWS.ASP?articleid=2222&zoneid=1
The Processoer seams nice:
http://focus.ti.com/general/docs/wt...00&path=templatedata/cm/product/data/omap_850
Hope it also uses the complete 802.11a/b/g Functions and not only b.
The chip has also USB-Host!
Both together with Windows Mobile 5.0 and 128MB Rom would be enough for me to switch from my MDA compact to this baby.
But would prefer it without keyboard...
Not sure about the processor - max speed of 200MHz puts me off.
The IPAQ 6340 has a similar Processor (OMAP1510) also with only 200MHz.
In the OMAP1510 is a ARM925 integrated
In the OMAP850 its a ARM926
Only found this benchmarks:
http://www.ppcreviews.net/news_8130.html
But the OMAP1510 runs only at 168MHz so [email protected] should be a bit faster
XScale MHz != OMAP MHz
XScale MHz != OMAP MHz
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Ti seems to be pushing this mode of thinking, after all the processor has multiple cores dedicated to separate functions.
However in real life situations, OMAP MHz are exactly XScale MHz, look at the benchmarks. You won't be running FPSCE on OMAP any time soon. Just because it has separate cores for DSP doesn't mean that other devices do their radio DSP in software on the main processor, I can't think of one that does. The only special thing that the OMAP can do is parallel video/audio decoding, but then who runs something processor intensive at the same time as watching video? A 400MHz XScale makes a better job of it in S/W, and is not tied to specific codecs; plus many video chipsets/cores offer some form of video helper functions in hardware too (although it seems certain chipset manufacturers don't want developers to use the features )
The only advantage I can see for OMAP is the cost to manufacture, which of course isn't passed on to us consumers...
rough release date
How long do they usually take to release these things after the public find out about them?
Another link
Here's another link I found on the Italian website. This should also be the new HTC phone, but doesn't look exactly as the previous posted link?!? (By the way I don't speak Italian. So can't really understand anything else than HTC and the specs.) :?
http://www.pocketpcitalia.com/anteprima_htc_universal.asp
http://www.pocketpcitalia.com/cms3/templates/PPC-NEWS.ASP?articleid=2221&zoneid=1
thats because they arent the same phone...
The universal was announced a ickle while back
The bottom link is not the universal....That's a different version of this "wizard"

C'mon - where the transalation!
It's a real pitty Google doesn't have a Norwegian to English converter!
How about a few details Oystein. How does it compare with the Magician and have the buttons been moved to better locations (camera, recorded and 'other' (above the volume slider). I need to know!!!!!!!

I've been walking around with one in my pocket for a few days, it feels kind of plastic, and the keyboard does not slide out in a nicely straight way, it can easily go crooked.
putting it in your pocket always gets it half slid out.
messing up the auto screen switch between landscape/portrait.
and it feels slow.
...
looked inside, it is actually just like the typhoon/sp3 smartphone, same rom layout, and same type of protections.
there is also a smartphone model coming out later this year, that is the same device, but as a smartphone. no touch screen, phone keyboard. 240x320 screen, with wifi.
that, for a smartphone is a really nice device.

New SE on WM leak

http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=191503&start=270
Oooooogh! SE is definitely running further and further behind the trend. I mean Q1 of 2K10 is all about amoled, 1Ghz, multitouch screen, 5M and above pixel cam, etc... and SE gets leaked an aparatus to be released somewhere in 2K11 (maybe) that's already by todays standards a piece of cra*. And it goes the same for the X10... by the time it releases it will be twice slower and three years behind every other phone out here.
...or is it just me, who gave up on SE beeing a ground breaker in mobile world?
it's not just you, jondalar. The X1 was good in time but since they are lagging behind, absolutely.
But I thought they'd have so much potential. I mean it's SONY! But well, I don't see a future for them. Blackberrys kick that phone if it was that what you wanted to show us @to?
I like the X1 still, though. Havn't found a alternative hardware keyboard wise. I don't know what you're thinking about that...
ummmm, correct me if im wrong, but isnt that the new design of the Xpanel button on that ugly piece of SE device?

yep it is the new panel button
lol cool, this is ugly, no wonder i never owned a nokia E series or blackberry (even though the storm looks nice)
look at this post from the forum:
"MSM7227 Chipset (the one used in SE Faith):
The new MSM7227 chipset includes a 600 MHz application processor and also sports a floating point unit. Moreover, a 400 MHz modem processor, 320 MHz application DSP, hardware-accelerated 3D graphics, integrated Bluetooth 2.1 and GPS capabilities, an 8-megapixel camera and 30 fps WVGA video encode / decode and display support are also included.
Best of all, Mobile Station Modem MSM7227 chipset, has been designed to aim at the sub-$150 smartphone area of the market."
that means this has a faster cpu than the x2?

Yessir!
obviously trying to cash in on the success of the nokia E and blackberry market...but about 2 years too late! why such a small screen with huge border?? i can appreciate this kind of phone is aimed at a certain market but they could at least maximise the space available.
* just found a picture from a different angle
http://techtickerblog.com/2010/01/13/sony-ericsson-faith-winmo-qwerty-phone-leaked/
the top kind of has a p1i look to it... maybe in all black or better colours it might be slightly more aggreable to look at.
loads more pics here, must admit it looks better in some of these shots.
http://dailyiphoneblog.com/2010/01/12/gallery-sony-ericsson-faith-first-leaked-pictures/
I'd like to think that it has a bit of P1i heritage, with its touchscreen, so it isn't just a blatant Eseries copy. I'd get it if I couldn't get X1, X2 or X10.
And they are breaking from trend with their green heart movement, so its not all retreading tracks.
I kinnda like MotoBackFlip!
I kinda like Inbrics M1

Well.. look like you have to wait for the REAL and Official announcement then.
From what I heard and read, it do have an 8gb of internal memory. Care to share why you highly doubt it??
However, if the leaked pictures can be trusted, I dont really like the design, reminded me of an old nokia model. I will wait for Desire to come here then.
I think the original features were wrong. This is from Verizon's press release.

Android 2.1 with HTC Sense experience
1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon™ processor for maximum responsiveness

[Q] fake or real?

So, here is the thing, i bought my father a phone from one of those chinese imports, at the time i didnt quite check the autenticity of the product, i looked at the price and purchased, well, my father will never figure it out ir its real or not, im just asking out of curiosity
Here is the link of the item i purchased
www . aliexpress . com / snapshot / 100404380 . html
(remove spaces)
Sorry, it seems i cant post links, but its sort of necessary for this question
Its funny that even the box looks real, what caught my attention were the sound holes in the back
Anyways, looking for some expert eyes on it, its payed already, im not going to regret my purchase or anything, its just out of curiosity, the link above is filled with imgs of the phone.
Thanks in advance.
By looking at the 6th and 8th pictures (bottom of the phone; open back of the phone) in the description, you can easily tell it's fake. The 3.5mm headphone jack is missing from the bottom of the phone, the hardware Home Button (should be between Call and Start) is missing, and the back of the phone does not have that layout. Heck, the provided battery is 1500mAh, whereas the stock HTC HD2 battery is only 1230mAh.

The internal storage and RAM are pretty low. If I was buying a clone, I'd at least get 1024 storage and 1024 RAM. And preferably the snapdragon CPU.
EDIT: But the key thing to realize is that it will probably NOT work with the standard custom ROMs in these forums; it has different hardware. So whatever you get is what you have for an OS.

Next a-little-better-and-would-be-high-end, but no S4Pro, so sorry Sony - after my X10 and Play (why you canceled ICS update? You could relase it later -.-) I won't buy your device again if you don't use quad-core or just new MSM8960, cause you stay again on nearly-high device....Your style of Xperias is best, but hardware is important too....And support :|....
Yeah Sony is perfect, except for their outdated hardware. Really, it would boost sales if they would release phones with some REAL hardware.
.....with real LONG and good support .
I'd say the best support. Look what they do for Developers, their website. They provide us so much information and help. Their phones have a really good user experience, the only thing that lacks is the good hardware.
Good words, you're right. But I think they shouldn't leave Play cause of touchpads problems and gaming experience - they should relase is after all 2011 Xperia. Why they relased beta if they canceled all update, it's quite s*it - the same problem like with X10 (and all 2010 line -.-). What's next? Arc?
I understand why they canceled it, at some points ICS was a bit more laggy on the Arc then with Gingerbread. I don't know how it affected the Games frames per second, but I think this is what they're pointing at. Also some websites reported that game developers didn't want them to release ICS for the Play because they didn't want to develop for ICS or atleast something in that way. This wouldn't have happened I think if they used some good hardware.
Let's hope they relase PSP games like anounced Daxter or Syphon Filter etc. + Playstation Suite. And hope developers like EA and Gameloft will still support Play, long possible, cause this device is very good .
I always liked my PSP, and I'm sure alot of people like the special gamepad on the XPERIA Play. I hope for you guys the game developers will still release good games for you. I unfortunately had to sell my PSP cause I had a goal to buy a new computer and I wasn't really using it anymore. It was a great device, I hope their next Playstation phone will have monster specifications...!
What you could try is e-mail Sony developer team, and ask them maybe for some sources so you can build a custom ICS ROM (with maybe Sony UI) and a fully working gamepad. You could try it, you're a good ROM developer and I believe that you can do it with some help of Sony. So, try it out! We already got some x10 sources, so why wouldn't they help you a little out with this?
It's not a bad idea, maybe I will do this, when I had time. My last project for X10 is coming (DX8), and after that I want to build last (after Monster) ROM for XPlay too, with best possible and fast feelings, cause this is my main target in development . For now I gotta go - learing time - exams tommorow. Bye dude! :>
Cya, I already had my exams. I'm waiting for the results of it. My exams were easy and I really didn't do anything for it. I will get 13 Juny my results. I think I passed my exams, they were easy as ****
I'm looking forward to your ROM, for now I'm using Feralab and that one is also awesome.
Of course, cause Fera is great Developer ^^. Okey, we should stop off-top, go back to Xperia Go/Acro S thread .
I think I know why it has n00b hardware... Look at this video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPVeVKodU7s
It has the Sony Ericsson logo on top.
Cause, Acro S is just international version of Sony Ericsson Xperia Acro HD.

GX
The GX will be awesome, I would buy it if I had money for it. But It looks great and specs are perfect.

Oh yeah, now I totally understand why it has such poor hardware... Thanks, forgot that... I want the GX!!! If it doesn't get international release, I'm buying that freaking SGS3.
Sorry if I reply to this old thread, but I cant find this info anywhere:
white paper say: "There is no API for the light sensor".
no Application Programming Interface available, but what this exactly means in practice?
Auto brightness works? Is possible to enable/disable it by settings menu ?
