The top 5 things you have installed on your X1 - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What is your top five apps/panels/tweeks/whatever (free or not free) you have installed on your X1 and why?
I need some ideas but there are so many on this forum so this might be really helpful for us new ones.

Freecaddie: great golf GPS programme, no need to spend hundreds on a dedicated device and like the name suggests it's free!
hTorch: I use the LED more as a torch than I do the camera
Microsoft Voice commander: I mount the phone on my car's dashboard, way easier to call someone using voice commands
Mobileread: I read A LOT of books on my X1
Resco Audio recorder: Again I like to use it for taking quick notes as well as using it as an audio book player (It can bookmark an MP3)
--------------------------
1-calc: Free calculator loooads of options
g-watch: Free stopwatch
Coreplayer: For when I haven't used Super to convert movies to MP4
Google Maps:
TomTom 7
Comic reader Mobile: free .cbr comic viewer
FingerKeyboard 2: Great stylus free keyboard for when your in a hurry
Microsuck Myphone:Just in case SPBBackup get's lost etc.
SPB Backup: For my frequent ROM flashing excursions
SmartPhoneTracker: For those 'oh crap i've lost/had stolen my phone' moments
TimeSyncTZ
Wizcode pocket alarm
AEbutton plus

WIMP (Where is my Phone?) - hidden program that sends gps coordinates of the phone to another phone.
TomTom 7 - GPS
Run.GPS Trainer UV - uses gps to track training, links with heart rate monitor, exports to pc.
SPB Mobile Shell - Still prefer this panel to any others I have tried
SPB Weather 2 - Customised weather sources

1. AEbutton plus: gotta be able to map buttons the way you like 'em
2. G-profile: amazing program to manage various scenarios relating to power consumption, connectivity, ringer volume. A must-have!
3. Finger menu 1.10: awesome for finger users
4. X1 SoftTouch: makes the screen very touch responsive; improved the overall experience for me
5. TouchResponse: very nice vibration feedback if you are a finger user
5. SPB Mobile Shell, newer version: very smooth; good software
6. MyCalculator: great little scientific calculator
7. SKTools: nice for tweaking and managing files etc
8. Shap's Advanced Config: nice for tweaking
looks like I can't count to five, but had to put them all down.

1. Voice Command
2. SPB mobile shell panel - for weather mostly.
3. TomTom
4. Mini Opera - loads much faster than the Opera 9.5 that the phone comes with.
5. Fring - AIM/MSN/YAHOO/etc etc combined + VOIP.
6. Youtube

Only Today utilities listed here:
1) cLaunch (v1.203 for VGA) - very able tabbed icon menu
2) TodayWarrior - 1-line instant icon access to most-used settings
3) Quicklinks - able 1-line rolling icon menu from Eten
4) rlToday - instant access to times of various chosen cities, made attractive by adding country flag icons
5) traylaunch - extracted from PHM Tools, allows instant access tray icons for constantly used utilities (like daily currency equivalents)
All of these are freeware, and together with Datex (freeware), RhinoPro Stats graph (cheap enough) and backup plugins, make up a very practical (for me, anyway) Today screen. Chosen theme is Windows Mobile 6.1.tsk as I think the green background is the least stressful when constantly using the device (can't bear the "rage for black")

1. S2U2:
Nice, useful and extends the battery lifetime
2. SpaceTime 3.0:
Scientific graphical calculator. Like a TI 92 for the pocket.
3. S2P:
Finest mp3-player outthere.
4. G-Alarm:
Never overslept for months
5. SPB Keyboard:
The best for short texts when you don't want to slide.
If I had 6 points I would also mention SPB weather 2...but there are just 5 of them so forget about it

1. Resco Explorer - great file browser
2. SPBPocketPlus - "today' extension, tasks manager and much more
3. HTC Touch HD dialer - smart phone dialer
4. HTC Touch HD keyboard
5. iGO8 - cool GPS program
6. Skype - some special version
7. PIGEON! - icq client with user friendly interface

Coreplayer
various pocket readers
S2U2

Must Haves For BlueAngel

Hi guys
I just wondered what you're must haves for the BlueAngel are (software,hardware, games ans so on).
I thought this could be usefull for new users of a BlueAngel like I am.
I hope to get lots of replies.... :wink:
Don't forget a short description...
All new users are going to be very thankfull (or at least I'm going to be...)
you could for first install sprite backup and sprite monitor. very useful for monitoring battery usage and memory usage. This also helps backup issues.
also, mine did not have a microsoft reader installed when I bought it so I installed one. useful if you're for ebooks.
cheers!

Talking about must-haves for the Blue Angel on the hardware side, I've got a Krusell leather case which is more convinient to use than the supplied one. It's a flip open one, like the one supplied with the XDA 2i. I've got a Brando screen protector, and got one spare too, to protect the screen. Further, I bought a sync + charge cable from sfplanet.com, which I can carry to office etc., rather than the cradle which I keep docked to my home PC.
Must haves
I like PocketNav. Free, smaller, faster than other Today screen "closer" programs.

J
Instant Messaging Program
Do y'all know if anything in particular conflicts with Agile Messenger on a Blue Angel? I have an O2 version, with the active stuff turned off, and Agile Messenger keeps crashing it!!!
If it is Agile Messenger and not the cause of some other program, could you please suggest another multi-IM client?
Thanks!

I like Agile messenger the best but that is just my preference. I think it really depends on what IM account are you usiing, yahoo, msn, aol, etc.
For internet browser I would use Opera Mini until Opera 9.0 comes out then I have a feeling it is going to be the best. IE actually does a lot better than it did in WM5, you can get add on that allows multiple browser windows in IE.
Agile Messenger is nice, but slowed my Tilt down to a crawl. I put Palringo on and absolutely love it. I also enjoy the Java-based Opera Mini - it just looks nicer than Opera 8.65. Here's hoping they come out with a browser like the iPhone - I sure do miss their Safari browser and the simplicity of it all.
thats what Opera 9.0 will be like from reading the reviews, similar to safari on iPhone

Yes, me too. I wonder if it will be as worthwhile though with the smaller screen.

Go with TCPMP and flash bundle for Youtube.
PocketCM Keyboard and PocketCM from here it is a cool contacts and threded SMS app.
For file management and reg editting and browsing shares on a LAN I use Total Commander version 2.5beta3.
For web browsing try OperaMini4 beta2 it blows PIE out of the water.
For IM I use Windows live for Windows Mobile from the cab in the stickied thread. This version lets you choose if you want to merge Live/MSN contacts with your Outlook default contacts.
MS Voice Command should be on every device as standard but it is $$$ only unless you look in the darker corners of the web.
I work in a corporate environment.
I absolutely install TodayAgenda on every ROM.
http://tiews.info/index.php?show=software/todayagenda
HTC Home is a must now as well
MS VoiceCommand 1.6
Those are the main programs I must have.
My list:
MS Voice Command 1.6
Resco Explorer
DinarSoft MemMaid
Pocket Mechanic
PHM Pocket PC Power Toys
PocketRAR
vxUtil
vxIPConfig
VisualGPS or Holux GPSViewer
Nav software (I use Route 66)
My list:
MS Voice Command (thought I'd change to Voice Signal in a heartbeat if I could)
SPB Pocket Plus (new version's even better)
SPB Mobile Shell
SPB Phone Suite
SPB Backup
Route 66
AvantGo Client
Opera Mini
vxUtil
PocketCM Keyboard
I'd throw Google Maps in there, but that'd be 11.
Edit - how in the heck I left AgendaOne off the list is beyond me. But that'd bump vxUtil off the list for me.

This is a great find!
My list...at least right now...
1. Fann Software's DTSysView Pro - gets you to your today screen w/ 1 touch
2. phoneAlarm by PocketMax - manages profiles and gives you a pop-up task manager - great for 1-handed operation
3. phonepadvibrate - give tactile feedback when you are dialing - I need that when I am driving and dialling
4. Pocket Informant (PIM, I use for Agenda management)
5. iLauncher
6. Pocket Breeze
7. Opera
8. SmartRSS
9. TCPMP+Flash Bundle
10. MemMaid - yes, even on the Kaiser

Can you post phonepadvibrate here? I used it on my Hermes, but that file can for some reason not be installed on my Kaiser. Thanks in advance.
BTW I found the vibrate on my Hermes lagging and slow sometimes, resulting in multiple keypresses due to my impatience. Is it faster on the Kaiser?
edit: Can iLauncher work with SPB Diary and SPB Weather, integrating them into one tab, like PocketPlus does? Does iLauncher support multiple rows of icons? In PocketPlus, it all has to fit in one row, making it impossible to use large icons on my 11 tabs (yes, I know, I am a bit anal) and the little icons are hard to hit with my thumb.
My list:
1. TomTom Navigator
2. PHM regedit
3. Total Commander
4. GPSViewer
5. Spb PocketPLus
6. SPB Weather
7. SPB Diary
8. SPB ToPlay
9. KaiserTweak
10. TCPMP
1-Opera Mini
2-Kaiser Notifications
3- PocketCM Keyboard
4- Google Maps
5- HTC Home customizer
Soon to add SPB Mobile Shell / Phone Suite/ PLus / Diary
TomTom 6
Google Maps
Memory Map 5
Live Search
Today Agenda
Windows Live 10.6.33.0600 (thank you)
Flash Video Bundle
TCPMP
MH Conversions
GPS Dash - removed - can't get it to talk to internal GPS
Also got Opera Mini 4 beta
What is this " BluOrb MobileOS (WAD Skin) BETA" ??
Is this advisable to install in Kaiser?

List of Applications

I just wanted to compile a list of application you guys must have on your PDA?
I've done tweeking my rom and now looking for some solid applications to add to the phone..
List all applications you install once after a hard reset!
-Tomtom Navigator
Heh, just downloaded Dutty's Hybrid ROM with the full intention of flashing it (as I'm still using Schaps' 4.31). Then sat down and listed all the soft I have installed... and cried bloody tears.
So much stuff to reinstall, re-register, restore saves/bookmarks to! Yes, I know of UC, Sashimi, and stuff, but still... that's an awful lot.
K, here goes for anyone interested (in order of original installation/upgrade):
SKKV SK Tools
Mortscript
Weather Panel (+ Hourly Fix)
TaskManager ITA Big Buttons
S2U2
Finger-Friendly Friends
Ultimate Launch
HTC Home Customizer
RC Mod
Pocket Informant 8
Cyberon Voice Dialer
Batti
Mobipocket Reader
SPB Diary, Traveler, Finance, Wallet, Time
Resco Explorer, Audio Recorder, Photo Viewer, Radio
FDC Softkey Applet
VGAKEY keyboard
SRS_WOW_HD
Green Skin for Audio Manager
and about 20 games, mostly puzzle and RPG.
And, of course, iGo My Way 2006 Plus and AutoMapa, both navigation software.
To answer your original question: most of these are a must for me. Sorry, cannot be more specific.

Battery Status
Total Commander
SBP Phone suite (Ideal if you are used to profiles on a Nokia phone)
SPB Diary
SPB Weather (Works nicely with SPB Diary)
Pocket Digital Clock (I do not use HTC Home, instead i use SPB Diary. This is a stand alone clock like the one in HTC Home)
WkTask

That'd be very kind of you, thanks
Indeed the software-Wiki could use some updating, as, for example, it lists only a few of Resco and SPB progs, and relatively old ones at that.
SPB Traveler, for instance, (mostly) duplicates the functionalities of SPB Weather and Time while adding quite a few of its own.
SPB Wallet (and its many brothers, like eWallet, SplashID, or CodeWallet) is another killer app, as it saves the hassle of remembering oodles of passwords, codes, keys, combinations, sizes, URLs, account numbers... you name it.

It's a wiki so you can add things yourself. I just created it about 1-2 weeks ago so it hasn't been around that long. Hell, I wish the damn thing would get stickied but it doesn't look like it is.

if i were going to go and buy a bunch of software for the Raphael, what would..

what would you suggest?
i've already got all the main xda-born apps, but as far as paid apps goes...what is the latest and greatest?
SBSH Touch Calendar
AEButtons Plus
If you get tired of Manila, SPB Mobile Shell and Phone Suite
i would definitely recommend pocketshield!
Resco Explorer makes my life alot easier, its just a nicer way to navigate my menus.
im addicted to the games atomic cannon by isotope244 and bubbles by resco.
but honestly i think the only thing i really couldnt live without is pocketshield, really great application, and the developer is always updating it (with free upgrading)
try this apps:
Resco Explorer
Wisbar Advance Desktop (if you are bored with your standard WMish look)
Calligrapher.
SPB Pocket Plus, SPB Diary, SPB Time. ( I don't know how Diary would look on a Raphael)
* Pocket Informant - because standard Pocket Outlook is too simple for my needs
* SPB Pocket Plus
- With SecondToday do things that TF3D can not - better luncher and today plugins handle
- Task switcher is much faster than one in the TF3D and it's available in any application not only at home screen
* SPB Phone Suite - for phone profiles and easy accessible Bluetooth and WiFi switcher
As response to burnblue post:
* Calligrapher - I see no place to write on the screen between form controls. It's less useful, because there is hardware keyboard. In my opinion it is not so great application after all.
* SPB Diary, SPB Time - I bought it and I use it daily. They are great apps. Not necessarily "must have", but OK. SPB Diary has much cleaner appointments and task summary than Pocket Informant plugin. And it has great note navigator. SPB Time is good for alarms, world clock and countdown timers, but there is plenty good free apps which do the same things.
To reaffirm many of the others and add some more:
SPB Pocket Plus -- for a simple and clean Today screen where all of my primary apps are not more than two clicks away... I turn off TFlo3d as it seems pointless for the eye candy and extra steps to slide, scroll, select all to accomplish the same launching tasks.
Resco Explorer -- current finality for an explorer replacement
SPB Phone Suite -- again for completing a clean looking Today screen with a very powerful device profile (sound, wireless, etc) editor
SPB Weather -- ditto for a clean Today screen. I have it running under a SPB Pocket Plus tab. there are other Today weather apps that also enable cutomised weather templates, but I tend to contently stick with this.
Pocket Informant -- likely the most powerful calendar/task/contact app... overkill for some but it can appear clean and relatively simple
Tomtom (street & POI) and/or Garmin XT (street/POI/topograhic/marine chart) with applicable maps to equal turn-by-turn handheld GPS device performance that standalone units provide.
I would add a clean-up utility like MemMaid or SKtools. I'm also a big fan of Resco Explorer (which includes a registry editor).

I am offering $30 for simplistic, custom clean 6.5.x WWE ROM

To all the Blackstone chefs. I am offering a donation of $30 thru PayPal for a very simplistic, custom clean WWE ROM. If more chefs are willing to build this I would donate the second two that I like best consolatory prize of $5 for encouragement of their efforts.
Normally I wouldn’t bother other people with this kind of task, but my own efforts at using the kitchen in all of its incarnations have failed miserably.
I suspect that quite a few Blackstone owners would appreciate this kind of ROM.
This is what I want:

- Continuous work to resolve major ROM issues and bugs if found
- Windows Mobile 6.5.x ROM with the new interface – the large Start and OK/Close buttons on the bottom. It should use a black flat skin for the bottom and top bar, like this one:

Will post my findings testing the ROMs little bit later.
I would appreciate any and all comments.
I have cooked a ROM that came near to what you want.... but it's in German.
ht*p://w*w.htc-developers.de/viewtopic.php?f=87&t=5662
I think you need one in WWE.
I try to cook one for you...
Mark...
Yes, should be WWE and thank you.
Energy Android
Have you tried this? It has Harem installed which can be nicely ignored, but i believe it's desolate otherwise.....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=625330
Yes I have tried that ROM and there were some issues, I don't recall at the mment what it was. I will try it again and see.
So I checked again the recomended *Energy Android Super Lite ROM* and it just doesn't work for me for few reasons.
- It doesn't have the Start, Close/OK buttons on the bottombar.
- Atleast I couldn't disable the DualBoot app
- When changing the Start menu skin to make it 1-row, the Start menu stopped working, and the skin was OK in other ROMs
And here is some addition to my requerements for the ROM, that I just forgot to list before:
- The Default Windows keyboard, no touch keyboard (can be installed if needed)
- 20 MB Pagepool
- USB to PC should be present (it is just too usefull to omit)
- Should have .NET Framework 3.5
- The ROM should be UC capable
I'd be interested in this too, I'll keep an eye on this thread.
here is your rom:
http://www.mediafire.com/?z3mhjvnjgtj
let me know if you like it, and if you want something different, i will be your personal cooker
Well...Great! One thing though. After flash it wouldn't start and won't even allow me to Hard Reset. Thankfully I can still enter BootLoader.
Thanks for your work anyway.
base on your fist post, I think its best for you to buy a phone something
that does not resemble a windows based PPC.
i seriously think you'll attract more bogus people pretending to be a cook
rather than attract the attention of Real Cooks here in XDA.
I want a Clear ROM also
I know few ROM`s that are super cool i mean fast,stable and everything is fine the things i don`t like is ONLY that they have installed APPS that i don`t use and i never will use, so if someone can Edit this ROM`s i mean just to delate all APPs that i don`t need will save from the Main Memory and will be just perfect.

See my point? I dont Want a HTC Phone or Windows Phone I DO Want a Pocket PC.
But hey, you can still disable Sense/Manila from the today and put the hell you want in your HD.
I don't get it, you just want to get rid all that things for what? To go to the Memory Settings and see that you have a looooot of free memory?!? For what?
It's like having a 8GBram with a 1TB disk computer and never use 100% it's of the capabilities...

Maybe I would like o make a Dedicated DOSBox PDA out of my Blackstone?
No seriosly - it's not about that. Why have Manilla and all other kinds of software in the first place if you will use something else anyway? Now I don't get that. It's about a clean slate (Now that's a name for a ROM - Tabula Rasa).
