I recently swapped my own X10 for a HTC Desire for a multiutude of reasons I won't go into, but my GF kept her X10 in anticipation of the 2.1 Update. She has updated the phone now, although it did take two hours and kept failing.
Anyway, she is happyish with the phone, but I still feel guilty, as it is so terribly slow, and I recommended the phone to her in the first place.
Anyway onto my question. If anyone has a HTC Desire and an X10, they may have more insight, but basically, the X10, after the update, is really slow.
I have sat my Desire side by side with her X10, and tried to do simple tasks, like go into settings, or load media scape, or add widgets, etc, and the X10 is sometimes seconds behind the Desire. I am hoping this is due to a bad install of the update but am not sure.
Everything seems to lag, pressing settings, going into the app drawer, loading the messaging app, and it doesnt always take the same amount of time to load things either. Sometimes going into settings comes up instantly, other times it takes 5 or 6 seconds. Things just seem to hang for no reason. Even scrolling the app drawer and settings screens up and down seem laggy.
We both have launcher pro installed now too, as I find it to be an amazing launcher, but the X10 with launcher pro is again miles behind speed wise, to the point of, to me anyway, almost unnacceptable lag.
Anyway, I just wondered if anyone, hopefully with both phones too, could advise me. I dont want to advise her to do the update again if it isn't going to help. I am privately hoping it is not the limitations of the X10 that makes Android 2.1 so slow, but just a bad install, but i'm not holding my breath.
Went through the Over Air update process yesterday, now WIFI drops all the time and the battery performance is so ppor the phone will not last a day!!! Can I put back the old SW or get this fixed some how? (edit a config fiel or somthing.......?)
View 2 Replies View RelatedWell, the subject says it all. My Xperia X10 was running absolutely fine, then I did the update recently. At first I experience no lag or slow apps at all, but increasingly it is running slowly. Typing out text messages etc I can tell that it has slowed down dramatically.
I have tried to update it again, but it says it is up to date. I haven't been using it in a different way, just calling, texting & surfing and the occasional photo/video.
I have a X10 mini pro. My phone seems to function very slow day by day. If I click on an app, I wud have to wait to few seconds to get it started. I tried clearing my browser history, timescape updates, kill tasks(after killing, it uses 70% of my memory which includes timescape, sync, backup, etc which use to run even after i kill the task. I shud be because I have switched my sync, backup on)... but still i get the same issue.
Does the phone memory affect the performance? I have only 48MB left. Is there any way that I can move or install my apps to my SD card(8GB)?
I also wanted to know whether my phones runs the latest software TILL DATE.
FWIW it's faster, more responsive and includes CreaTouch.

1) poor battery performance
2) outdated system
3) low sound quality to the point i cant use it in a crowded environment
4) all this crap for a premium price
What if this was a car or any other equipment, Shouldn't the iron heads at sony recall this product. i feel cheated by buying this phone. at the end of the day this is a premium piece of equipment brought at a premium price and not a prototype.
Has anyone else noticed the reduction in battery performance from SW version 20 to 26? When I updated form 16 to 20 the battery proformance was significantly better. I was getting at least 2 days with moderate use. Now on version 26 I am lucky to get 10 hours . I'm considering going back to version 20 or should I hold tight for the much talked about September update?

View 49 Replies View RelatedFor some time ago I updated my X10 to Android 2.1 and today (a week later) I noticeed all the sudden that Mediascape has linked alot of my pictures stored in my phone to some of my Facebook contacts automatically. Of course Mediascape got it all wrong, linking my children to old friends I haven't met in several years etc. This raises a couple of questions:
1. First - how do I disable Face recognition service entirely. I find this very unuseful since I have found it not that good at identifying persons even when trying to learn.
2. How come that Mediascape did this automatic link between my Facebook contact and my pictures?
3. Is there a way to clear this linking data that Mediascap does. It's pretty time consuming to have to go through all Facebook friends and select the image and Delete the link between the photo and the friend.
I guess Mediascape must have downloaded images from my frieds facebook galleries and analyzed them somehow. However this isn't something I want my phone to spend time doing. The battery time of my X10 is poor already, it doesn't need to do image processing - at least I should have the option to turn this off?
Overall I find Mediascape pertty crappy. Mostly because it's performance. I guess the ideas behind it is good, but the implementation isn't near good enough.
For example, slow browsing between images. Compare with iPhone, Samsung galaxy, HTC phones, older SonyEricsson phones such as W715 or C905. All these perform much better. Is there a way to remove this or use another media viewer?
I am considering getting an upgrade on my MicroSD. But not sure which class to buy.
How does higher MicroSD HC speed of class 4 and 6 helps with Xperia X10 performance?
Any changes based on your experience?
Considering Xperia X10 processor Input and Output MB/s VS. Class 2 (2MB/s), Class 4 (4MB/s), Class (6MB/s)

I restarted the phone is not getting restarted.
Even I did " Remove and reinsert the battery and then restart your phone. If this does not help, charge the phone. It may take up to 30 minutes before you can see that the battery is being charged.
Well, that says it all. My X10 mini says the system update must be done with a computer via SE website. But on the website, it says there's no update : http://www.sonyericsson.com/update
By the way, there's an X10 system update. May my phone be confounding them ?
I followed all the instructions on updating to Android 2.1 and I did not have any error messages in the process. When I boot my X10, I am still at Android 1.6. Worse yet, the backup/restore application does not restore everything. I have to reconfigure my main screens and the worse of it is my Touchdown client needs to be reconfigured for exchange sync and I have to reconfigure it and re-download everything again. How can I diagnose why my android doesn't update? I am using Windows 7 x64. The process looked like it was working, but I see the following in the driverinstaller_install_usbflashdriver.log file:

View 3 Replies View RelatedYesterday (08/08/10) my X10 said there was a new update available and to download correctly I needed to connect it to a computer update through PC Companion 2.0. I did this and followed all the on screen instructions correctly. I got to the final stage and it asked me to disconnect the phone switch it off remove the battery, reinsert and then turn it back on again. The instructions said it may take awhile for the phone to come back on again because the phone will be updating. So far my phone has not come back on again after 24 hours of waiting, all that happens is the sony ericsson logo is displayed for about 10 seconds and then the phone turns off then the same process is repeated. Any ideas whats happened or what I can do to fix this or will it be a job for Sony? I have emailed them but of course they were absolutly no help what so ever.
