Guys and gals, do read my blog if you want to know the latest news from Barcelona - I've been posting a LOT of articles & shots on both Sony's XPERIA X1, Opera Mobile 9.5, the competition (Nokia, BB etc.), the latest e-paper readers, new stuff etc. I can't cross-post them in here or even follow the related thread because my connection is very-very restricted and expensive - sorry for you having to visit another webpage.
That is, don't forget to check out and regularly visit http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/ - even without my updating this thread. (Again, sorry, I can't cross-post my stuff and can't even regularly update my announcements.)
(I'll unstick this thread when MWC is over and, after having returned to home, I can resume my regular posting. That is, it's not a permanent "plug" of my blog )

Thanks for the news, this is good stuff. I quite fancied the Sony err xperia 1 but then noticed in www.htc.com press release section (materials relating) mentions about them taking on the xperia. Could this mean hold backs on the possible identifying device..Who knows, but I still quite fancy it. And suppose if HTC do release the drivers at the end of March like metioned at www.htcclassaction.org then I would buy another HTC device although I would be more cautious and probably wait for a few people from here to get one first.
Thanks again for your blog!! Good reading..
Hope to hear from you again..

good blog
but reading....it seems S E won't even say if the video driver is going to be fixed...that is just making htc look even worse if you ask me. I think they are making the phone right? Bad sign, they are dodging things, and the phone hasn't even been released.....
Why would SE make the same mistake as HTC?

Cause SE does not produces the Hardware. The internal PCB and all on-board is HTC OEM or ODm production.
HTC "might" again provide a chipset build without driver support. That is why.
Advice: Avoid Xperia as long S E does not confirm FULL specs of the Qualcomm CPU being used.
Any notice of spb mobile shell?

While I can't discosure the name of the manufacturer (they have asked me not to do so after our discussion), there is a far-east ODM that is working on the 3D Qualcomm drivers for their own Qualcomm-based devices. They stated they'd be ready in 2-3 months. They stated while they indeed have to do some manual coding, Qualcomm does (already) support 3D in the hardware.
You all know what this means - yes, we will hopefully be able to rip all those drivers after the (pretty close) release of the devices.
That definitely looks like something to look forward to. Please keep us informed, if you can.

Sure I will. Hope we can do some kind of a co-operation between the company in question and our Qualcomm coders / hackers with mutual benefits.
(I'm already discussing this stuff privately with other mods. Details aren't public as yet.)
Just posted a brand new link & some great pics of the XPERIA X1 to http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/in...y_ericsson_xperia_x1_new&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1
Thanks Werner,
However, I really dont like that Qualcomm ... I hope SE managed to put hardware graphics acceleration drivers ... otherwise ... toast.

The S-E rep I've in person talked to didn't want to comment on whether it will surely have 3D hardware acceleration or not - unlike what the flyier states (in there, they speak of 3D hardware acceleration).
However, a completely independent manufacturer is (also?) working on the drivers. I'll try to do some kind of a co-operation, if at all possible, between them and the XDA-Devs coders.
Yes, I read that as well (about independent manufacturer). I am really appreciate your effort.
After reading your latest blog entry regarding this Xperia and found about:
- It is still based on Qualcomm MSM7xxx
- It is still 128 MB RAM
- It is still 256 MB Flash
I am less excited ...
I meant compared to Kaiser, there are not much upgrade.
- More resolution (800x480), yes this nice, but 3"? Not really big boost compared to current QVGA. For sure, it will look nicer, but I would rather to have 640x480 ... and 3.5" screen!
- More CPU power, I think 400 vs 528 will not add a lot (remember, the RAM is still 128MB) ... 624 would be nice (and add more RAM )
- FM Radio? Hmm, I dont need this for sure ...
- Xperia Panel? Could be nice, but I will not upgrade just because of this
- Windows 6.1? Dutty has that already ...
The rest are the same (GPSOne, Camera, etc.).
Well, maybe it is just me, but I found Xperia X1 does not offer much upgrade to current Kaiser.

hey Menneisyys, i think your magazine carefully forgot the bit about the drivers in their Tilt review
http://www.pocketpcmag.com/cms/node/1302
No news on the Meizu M8 in Barcelona? Any idea if they still gonna show it on Cebit?
I would have more trust on that one as that "unknown" Xperia ODM manufacture would not be involved in the driver set-up

Yup, that's their old article. In the last one (I'm their tech editor), which will be published in the next issue, I've inserted two sentences mentioning the driver issue and pointing to this very forum. Hope it gets thru as it was 2 days before going to print that I've done this and the layout was already pretty much finalized.

Haven't checked it myself as it's "just" a WinCE-based phone, not a WinMo one. Dunno if Engadget and the other sites covered it.
Albeit, I'm certainly interested in the S5L8900 chipset it has (the same as in the iPhone and is prolly much better than the old S3C244x in, say, the TyTN) (see http://www.gearlog.com/2007/07/iphone_processor_whats_with_th.php ). While I don't think it can beat the brand new S3C6400 / S3C6410, which will only be used later by devices from Samsung and E-ten (the latter was confirmed by a Samsung rep at MWC), it's certainly much better than the S3C244x and has, for example, 3D hardware acceleration support.

Hi All.
I just signed up and it seems I'm at the right place I've been looking for the App (see subject) for weeks now Since the link given in a previous message is broken, can someone type in clear-text if this app is available and in what Country. In Canada it is not available via Market Place, so it would be nice if someone could re-dristribute the APK if it's possible.
Thanks.

Cant seem to update to a newer version though
anyone got a link to version 2.0 with social networking capabilities? =\ for the life of me I can't find it anywhere
Hi all,
Ive been a Lurker here on the forum for some time now, but decided to join cause im hoping to join the android Major leagues with an M7.
Ive loved the phone ever since i 1st saw it, but ive only gotten around to actually buying one "ONE" (excuse the pun) only now, & ive been revisiting the forum & reading up on the phone.
seems like it does have some issues with the camera though,
so far, thanks to the forum i know to look for the phone build date & the camera sensor info via a root explorer. what ive read so far indicates
build dates after 2013-Sep should be in the clear
sensors ->> VD6869 = BAD! , OV4688 = OK , SHARP = BEST . "Browse to "/sys/android_camera/sensor" and open the file with a document viewer."
best way to test the sensor is to place a hot phone face down & check the camera for pink/purple tinting
Green tinting is a software issue & fixable
Please correct/add-on any newer info or opinions with regards to the above. aside from these. is there anything else i should be looking for? or even any other noteable issues on the phone? i think i read something about the HDR mics biend excluded from later batches but havent got around to researching that yet.
EDIT: whats the general consensus on when the the HDR mics were swapped out? Is there a way to determine which mic you have?
Thanks !:good:

I just tested and this works. FYI, my sensor was replaced through warranty, and the new one is "ov". I think in my country, all the replacement chips are ov.
Just got my htc one back from htc service center. Had a purple tint issue. Now camera sensor is "ov ov4688 4m"
But its showing green tint now.
Can anybody explain what does SHARP camera sensor code name?
Hey people,
is there an hope to get mirrorlink support on the Device? It wouldnt matter official or unofficial.

Not sure what car you have.. on Subaru, the consensus is that you need an old version of Android (4.x).
also that the list of Mirrorlink supported apps was apparently pretty thin.
Mmmh i will flash my S100 Radio the next days to a special firmware that supports mirrorlink, sadly it will not work with the OnePlus3T as it looks like.
Think i will use my lg g2 then in the car.
I need help too
Hi, new to forum but 2nd OP phone (3T). Just got Peugeot 108 with mirrorlink, can get phone and music to work but no joy with mirrorlink. Bought dashcable with micro usbc but still can't get mirroring to work, any ideas please?
Go to mirror link web site and see the compatible Devices. Oneplus is not in the list
Any software Tweeks available to make mirror link possible with OnePlus 3?
MirrorLink has to be supported by both OEM and MirrorLink. This has been asked many times by people elsewhere.

Warning/Info: that LGCamera.apk does not work for our V30 yet. It says "camera not found" and quits.
So don't install over your current LG Camera App as an update unless you want to break your stock app.
Is there no forum dedicated to the V50? If not, petition XDA to start one rather than confusing everyone here.

There is a V50 forum, but it's lonely there.
Most apps from later LG models can't just be installed on previous phones, as is. Yes, there are a few exceptions, but usually a dev has to get involved to remove restrictions. Was that way on the later Motorola cameras which Moto no longer gave updates to the Moto Quark (Droid Turbo/Moto Maxx/Moto Turbo phones). We got the updated cameras thanks to "porting" them, until things changed TOO much and it was no longer possible.
Anxious V30 Magisk module has cameras from LG G6/V40.

So all V50 discussion should be there, no? I understand it's new, no devs yet, etc but it seems like this thread is just to poach devs over to that phone. I mean, that's the reason I don't early adopt anymore, nobody willing to switch devices.

I'm interpreting he meant to help V30 by providing apks for V50 features. A lot of people request stuff like that, and a dev could possibly "port" some of this but needs access to the original files. So, these are the original files and something possibly can be done with them in the future.
And yes, people who request it expect it to be delivered on a silver tray ready to install -- but that's not how it works.
Yes and also I get bored, it's like we are 3 who owns it, but I'm the only one active on the forum. But the v30 has pretty solid forum. Also I find you as a true community with verry little trolling, arguing, and also I find you guys mature and with PERSONALITY. A key factor in these days where are so many many ROBOTS/SHEEPS.
I just want someone to port lg g8/v50'ui for v30. And the camera app. I don't get it why they didn't update the camera app like g8? Our camera app is also behind the v35 and g7
