Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 :: Connected To WiFi But Streaming Through Mobile Internet
Jun 18, 2010
This month orange gave me a bill for 30 pounds extra as I used 1.5 gigs on my x10
after talking to orange on the phone for a long time, They were very help full, unlike Sony Ericsson, it turns out that while at home when my phone says its connected to WiFi, and is usually as I have tested by turning of data 3G and things on the hand set. It is still using 3G and streaming through the mobile internet.
Orange tell me its a problem with the handset and they have had a few people with the same problem. Orange kindly didn't charge me for my data use and told me to ring Sony who were very unhelpful and just claimed it isn't the hand set. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if any thing can be done. I now try to always have the 3G off but not sure if that is going to help.

I have a question about internet on x10 mini pro. When the phone is on a WiFi network and the mobile internet network is switched on too, does the phone automatically use the WiFi before the mobile internet?

I have a Xperia X10, great phone ! but some issues.
1) It seems to use loads of data even when i am not actively using the phone, and i have disabled google's background data setting. I would stop using the phone with the 3g connection on and my NetCounter app would say 2,5mb used , i would sleep and wake up and it would note 23mb used for instance. Does this phone send background info to SE and Google over and above what we can control in the settings. As i live in South Africa , our internet browsing cost are high even via 3G and this seems extreme. What should a average user be using in a month? ( ?MB)
2) The next issue blows my mind. Due to the fact that i used to have a SE p910i and it did connect with ease. The Experia seems unable to connect to the internet via the USB cable. It does connect to the PC to trf. files and music , photos etc , and it can use the internet via PC (connected to LAN) to do an update. Yet with my phone connected to PC i cannot simply use LAN through PC to browse on the phone. I know the phone is aimed at mobile connectivity via 2/3G and WiFi, i get that. But if my phone is connected to my PC most days when i am in the office ( it charges like this obviously) then why am i forced to use 3G or wifi, it seems odd that such an "amazing" phone in constrained like this. So if i want to browse the Android Market while connected to PC i am forced to use 3G or connect to a wifi network to do this , thus having to pay for data , that would otherwise be accessed if i could get access to the LAN.
Please can someone explain why an advanced handset, "smart" phone cant seem to do , what most handsets prior to these fancy touch screens could do. I mean i had a Samsung Omnia and decided to go back to SE, the Omnia could share its internet connection with my PC and it could also connect to the internet via the USB ( access LAN via PC)
SE dont you think it is embaressing that clients have to bring up issues like this. For all that android is , it seems more limiting in my experience so far , having used the X10 for 3 months.
SE please suprise me with some options or at least news of an update that can remedy what i would call an embarassing oversight. I think the Windows OS phones do this in their sleep.

I bought this x10 two days ago. I am not still able to make Internet work on it via WiFi. Tasks I performed:
1. Updated X10 to the latest firmware.
2. Connected to My WiFi Network and given the authentication details.
3. Connection status is connected in X10. (There is no problem in connecting to my WiFi Network for X10).
4. I went to Browser and typed Google its coming as "Page Cannot be Displayed"
Problem is: X10 is connecting to WiFi but Cannot Browse. I tired even Use Static IP and gave DNS and gateway even.

I had a new phone that the phone company forced me to block by not giving me the correct code for unlock (which I paid the phone company for), and they said sorry and after 5 mths with a new phone in a box (while in another country and not being able to use it), they decided to exchange the phone. They exchanged the phone and wouldnt give me a new one since the original problem wasn't reported before 7 days after purchase, but 9 days pff. The exchange is refurbished or something but is perfectly new looking and works amazingly well.
It connected to like 2-3 networks while I was away in that country getting the phone changed and now I'm back home and it will not connect to my home connection. I have changed every thing around and back and I have verified all settings, WiFi on and off. Hard reset - it will not connect. It says searching and then connection and then disconnected etc. Doesn't even say obtaining IP addy or anything. It doesn't say anything or give errors at all, it just will not connect.

I have recently found that my internet connection only appears to work when I am in contact with WIFI, the o2 service seems to have stopped working. When I have wi fi turned off, as I can't connect when I am not in work anyway I use the usual O2 facilty however in this mode, I cannot download anything. I seem to be receiving my email notification ok. Is there something I may need to change in my settings?

Last night I updated to X10i on the PC Companion. At first I freaked out when I turned by phone back on, but then began to enjoy the new look etc. However, I noticed that browsers and apps DO NOT work (Android Market, Facebook, browser etc) whenever I'm connected to my Wi-Fi at home, but when I turn the Wi-Fi off and let it go to 3G, they all work fine...wtf? My phone was sitting 2 metres away from the signal. It's definitely connected as it has the Wi-Fi logo on the top of the screen, it's just that nothing will load.I'm in Australia and we don't have the 2.1 update yet, so that's out of the question for now.

I was wondering if the icon of the 3G remains the same even if it connected to the HSPDA as my friend has an HTC desire and sometimes the 3G icon turns in H. I have the Xperia X10 Mini Pro

Every time I plug my X10 into my PC or laptop, SE Phone Tools pops up with a windows explaining to me how to mount my SD card. If I close this window, it reappears about a minute later and will continue to do so until I quit PC Companion, mount my SD card, or unplug my phone. Is there any way to disable this window while keeping PC Companion running? I run PdaNet tethering software and will also sometimes charge my phone through my PC. Neither of these situations require me to mount my SD card nor do I wish to always do so. Either way, there should be an option within PC Companion to permanently disable this useless window (after a week of using the software, I was more than aware how to mount my SD card).

I just bought the Sony Ericsson Xperia x10 Mini Pro. I have a problem with the memory stick. It says it's connected and everything, but it also says it's empty. Main point being; I can't get the memory stick to work. I use the default memory stick (2GB), the one that came with the phone.

I just bought a Hero today, and it looks like if it's always connected to mobile internet. The "E" icon is always there. What does that mean? I would prefer my HTC to connect only periodically. For example every 15 minutes to check my emails and sync my calendar. Is that possible? I think the battery life would much be better if we could do that, and I personally don't need my mobile phone to be connected to the internet 24 hours a day!
