Sony Ericsson :: Is It Possible From Symbian 1 To Android Or 3?
Jul 5, 2010
Is possible SE Symbian based Smart Phone like Satio, Vivaz and Vivaz Pro change the system from Symbian^1 to Android or Symbian^3 OFFICIAL?Symbian is open source and Android also open source.And hardware requirement for all SE Symbian based Smart Phone I think no problem to use Android and Symbian^3 system.
SATIO is really the best smartphone, with powerful CPU strong GPU and style design.
But this ultimate smartphone why got so many people complain?
Because the poor system: NOKIA SYMBIAN^1
Why again, I got 2 reason here.
1. Symbian only got best performance on NOKIA own smartphone but not all other brand phone. (not just Sony Ericsson, SAMSUNG also)
*Is this Sony Ericsson and Samsung problem? No, is NOKIA did not full "OPEN" the source of Symbian.
2. Symbian make all 3rd party software fully compatible with NOKIA own smartphone but not all other brand phone. (everybody will know, the CALL RECORDING software ONLY can use on NOKIA base Symbian phone)
*Same, NOKIA did not full "OPEN" the source of Symbian.
My main point why want to change the SYMBIAN to Android is because SYMBIAN only best best 3rd party software compatible in NOKIA smartphone.
Is Android really best compatible in all 3rd party software, I just can say no the most, but it will more and more and more that NOKIA Symbian.
Why I know, because in my sister hand got one Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 mini. Same 600MHz CPU but X10 mini performance really nice.
Is Sony Ericsson problem, hardware problem, software problem? NO, IS NOKIA SYMBIAN PROBLEM.
That why now Sony Ericsson all phone now base on Adroid.
Everybody got MORE REASON?
1. If really SATIO or other SonyEricsson Symbian base smartphone change to Android, SonyEricsson can cut off the Timescape™ and Mediascape, I know this two feature is symbol of XPERIA X10.
2. I love the brand (SonyEricsson), I love the hardware (SATIO), I also love the system (Symbian) but the system make me disappointed (best compatible 3rd party software only in NOKIA smartphone).
I have bought Vivaz one week ago and it was such a good cell phone to have with marvelous features compared to its price and size. My pain is the OS which is Symbian S60 5th Edition which I hate more than the darkest hour. I wish if Sony Ericsson could change the OS from Symbian S60 to Android what is the possibility to such so? is it need some hardware to be change? I feel pity for my Vivaz as it works using Symbian while my brother has Xperia X10 Minipro works with Android 1.6.
Lately hardly you can see new applications for symbian. And the few new apps are not really very interesting and impressive. Everyday you can see dozens applications for IPhone or android even windows mobile but not for symbian (still less for symbian v5, a dead platform, a sandwich between 3rd and the new symbian -from what I've read and see a no very impressive interface). And now well established symbian forums and webpages opening to other platforms due to lack of interest and new applications about symbian (example:symbian planet.net now has changed to mobileitalia.net with more information about IPhone, android or n900 then symbian).
Sony Ericsson people I am waiting patiently for the upgrade to this OS, what really is the real situation, is there any possibility? If there is no more plan for you to upgrade this OS to symbian 3, I am willing to pay an extra cost for that OS so that I can maximize my phone usage, and applications we are longing to try. If there is any possibility and I do hope so, please tell us,(your avid and loyal customers) so that we can be proud once again having a good phone with good features, unlike now this brand is not gaining popularity because of OS.
Seems to me that the upgrade of the system is not an option of Sony engineering, because it asks Nokia (at the end, OS is their property).Sony-Ericsson probably think (like all big firms),that today's consumer society should be animate with new, new, new and always new gadgets.All praise to brands, that provide full support for their devices regardless of their age.Who knows, maybe some engineer from Sony-Ericsson gone astray in this forum, read something, and think that million people read this (million people - 1$ - one million dollars),million unhappy users - low support - problems to you "mister Sony-Ericsson").
Many people have purchased the satio, vivaz n vivaz pro and these phones are quite expensive phones too. what courtesy and responsibility does sony ericsson plan to show to these customers in the near future ? will there be any software updates for these 3 devices in the future or not ? because i believe there is a need to improve its touchscreen features in the phone. i need the touchscreen feature of the symbian os on these phones to be as good as the touchscreen feature of the media menu on these phones.... i m sure u know wat i mean.... plus the auto rotate feature on the satio is very slow ( takes about 1.5 seconds sometimes). is sony ericsson dumping its satio, vivaz n vivaz pro customers too along with dumping symbian? the answer and response to this question will reflect the fidelity of sony ericsson towards its customers. fidelity of of a customer towards his merchant goes the other way too u know.... i d like to see if sony ericsson does have an answer to this question.
i am wondering is sony ericsson's java platform, created by symbian or is it just a java on it's own. do you understand wat i am asking? iam just wondering because ive always wanted to know
My Xperia X8 is currently using the old version of Android I think 1.6 as my phone keeps telling me I need to update it to 2.1. I have been trying to do this with PC Companion but every time I try it, the software gets to the preparation section and tells me installation error unable to install or start phone software update components. I then have no option but to close the box.I then get another box come up saying the update of software failed. Please try again or consult Sony Ericsson support for assistance at url...I have tried several times to do it through PC Companion but it just will not work.My phone is telling me that the firmware version is 2.1 update 1, I did upgrade it to Android 2.1 when I first got the phone, but I had to do a factory reset of the phone due to an error, which set it back to Android 1.6.
I'm trying to download a new software update for my W760a, because it tells me it cannot add anymore contacts and I can't recieve or send texts/ phone calls. When I try to go to the software updates on the W760a hompepage, it loads a blank page. It just says on the tab "Sony Ericsson Support Phones Topic Updateserviceapplication W760a", and loads a blank page. Please help me with this problem as I wish to continue using my new phone.
Don't have the new phone yet, but knowing one is symbian and the other android I want to make sure there's an easy way to do it since I have more than 300 phone numbers that I need to keep.
I thought I may start an Elm/Hazel thread for discussion as it seems many of you have one of the two phones now. I wanted to do this to discuss any problems with things like firmware & issues & other stuff rather than discussing this in the picture thread.

I think the fone fell, cause it was dusty or maybe its because it was charged using the USB cable. What can be the possible cause of the phone not to turn ON?
As the title implies, I need to ask if there are varying kinds of Sony Ericsson LCD screens for the G705 or if there are variations in models made. Nearly 6 months ago I bought a Sony Ericsson G705 phone off eBay that only needed a new LCD screen. Well I purchased a screen off eBaand was good to go except for a few minor issues... 1.) The LCD screen had a thicker screen/border than the original so I had to mod it by taking off the white border around it. 2.) The ribbon that connects the LCD screen to the G705's keypad wasn't aligned correctly causing it to disconnect from the keypad every so often. This too I had to fix by sticking some paper underneath where the connector sits. It worked after the modifications but the end result is the keypad was raised causing issues where pushing the up key would force it to push the left key too. Unfortunately after awhile the screen stopped working likely due to the fact the different layers were separating. I gave in and bought a new screen from an online dealer elsewhere just to get scammed in the end with a broken LCD screen which they refused to replace claiming I cracked it. So now I've purchased a new screen of eBay yet this one has issues too, it's thinner than the first one I got, but has the same problem where the ribbon doesn't appear to be aligned correctly either. This time however, I get some ugly dead pixels in the lower left corner of the screen and the rest is completely jumbled with white lines going through it. I've already contacted the seller for an exchange and am about to lose all hope getting this phone working. Anyway, back to the topic. Do the screens in the G705 vary from region to region or between versions? When I got it I found the phone was from Hong Kong (firmware was HK anyway.) though the manual and included paperwork suggested it was from France. The screens I have purchased seemed to have varying differences between either the thickness is too wide, the ribbon doesn't fit the correct position, or some other incompatibility. I bought this phone.
Please help someone I have encountered my first Elm problem. Over night I charged the phone & this morning it's still charging & will not pass 66% charge. I took battery out put back in & charged with the phone off for another hour. When switched back on it was now @ 65% This was after another hour of charging with the phone off. I then did a master reset of all not just settings. Charged it up again for a further hour & still the charge is not increasing. Please help what the hell is going on? This battery has a mind of it's own. I have a feeling something has occured since I kept plugging & unplugging quite often the phone in & out of my pc. So maybe it's caused this I do not know. Please any suggestions this phone has been reliable upto this piont Esato Awards King of Garbage 2009/2010 & Best Debater 2009 x10 & Nokia N8

Sir/Madam, I have a Nokia Asha 311 handset. I want to know that can I change Operating system of Nokia Asha 311 . I want to switch over from Nokia OS to Symbian/symbian belle?
I downloaded the Symbian Anna and honestly, it's not as great as it's been made out to be!Now I want to revert to the earlier S3 version and am unable to do so! What can be done to regain the old version of the OS?
I tried a Restore to factory settings from the phone, but it just goes back to factory settings with ANNA, how do I change the OS back to the earlier one?
My Sony Vivaz was working properly and then suddendly applications stopped working. Then I noticed the applications I had installed in the memory card are not longer displayed on the screen, and when I try to take a photo it says there is no memory card and that they will be stored in the phone's memory. Additionally, when I try to reinstall the applications I always get the message File error. What is happening to my phone? How can I fix all these problems?
I bought a new sony spiro this weekend and so far has been a pain in the back. It resets when I try to access the camera, sometines it stops playing music at random times, or it simply stops reading my micro sd. Today I installed the newest firmware, but still the same problem continues.
I am having trouble with the GPS on my vivaz.The problem is that it seems to be having trouble finding the satellites and at best only picks up one, giving me a message that says "GPS works poorly indoors and in enclosed areas".I have had the phone for about two months now and it did work perfectly at first, I have fitted a zagg invisible skin to the phone and cannot recall if I had used the GPS with it fitted but have tried with the back cover removed and the invisible skin peeled back where the GPS sensor is located but to no avail. Can anyone help or is it a warrenty issue?
Accuracy of the gps on my elm. from wisepilot, chose options-settings-gps but it always says no gps coverage. i have another gps equipped phone and it is able to detect 7 gps satellites from the same location. has anybody experienced problems with the elm's gps and how did you fix it?
I got my satio in may and didnt even have it for a month before things went wrong. firstly, i was never able to send a MMS to a virgin mobile phone. and then i wasnt able to send a text message to anyone. i called SE and they did all this stuff and called my carrier AT&T and nothing was wrong with my service because i put my SIM in my old phone and was able to send MMS and SMS. so SE said i had to send my satio in for repair(why they didnt just replace the phone i have no idea) and now i am waiting for parts. its been 2 weeks since i sent my phone in. and now i hear there isnt going to be another update? theres slight problems with this phone that if were fixed, it would beat the iphone and droid by a mile. i was just getting used to my satio and then i had to return it. they say i probably wont get it back until the 8th of july. thats just crazy in my opinion. why didnt they just replace the phone? when i looked into the satio as my new phone it looked so cool and when i got it i was so amazed by it. i even got a manuel in a different language, had to call SE and they said they wont send me an english manuel and that i should just look it up on their website since they update the software a lot...well apparently they dont since they havent updated it in months. to say the least, i am disapointed in SE with their future of the satio.
I can't decide should I buy Elm or Hazel? I heard about all those firmware update and thats new to me, because I never did anything like that to my old K750i. Is it neccessary to update to the latest firmware? I've also heard that Hazel has a lot of bugs. Is that truth? And recharge problems, are they that bad as they say? I've recharged my K750i for about every 2 weeks.
In a usage time of this phone I had a problem with function Wi-fi. At connection to ad-hoc networks the exchange of packages does not occur. What should I do? I tried to adjust ip-addresses and a network mask manually, to change cryptography techniques, but it hasn't helped.
