Sony Ericsson :: Vivaz - Downloaded Application Compatibility
Jul 22, 2010
I was just wondering if anybody else knew about the following or if it is wrong and may harm my phone. I went onto the playnow site on my phone via internet search. Whilst on it I scrolled down the bottom of the screen and clicked free stuff and lots more stuff came up available than when I go on playnow on my laptop. I downloaded a few and they all seem to work although they pop up with a strange type of keypad thing under neath the application when its open.
I then went back onto the play now site. I was on and was looking about when I noticed it had a bit that said : country - uk your phone - w880i. I didn't put this in it was already there. Mine is the Vivaz handset and yet the applications seem to work ok under the w880i phone. Should it not be compatible? should I remove the apps I downloaded this way of my phone to prevent a problem etc? I am so confused at the moment as to whether it is safe etc. for my phone. As I didn't expect it to happen. I always thought when you go onto a site like play now it would know what phone is being used.
my first post here. I've had problems with a 32Gb card, don't know if the problem is the card or the "SDHC" standar. If I change to the 8Gb card that came with the mobile everything works fine.If I copy music to the phone via media sync or just dragging files only few of the files appear in the phone. i.e: For a 10 track album I only see 4 songs.Also having problems with pictures or videos, the files seems to be corrupted. Any ideas? I'm using Snow Leopard + Sony ericsson Media Sync. Also tried Saling Media Sync.Vivaz software version: 1224-4699_R2CA026
I use windows live as my IM client, hence my first instinct when entering the IM app was to input my details and the app would do all the work, but I saw a blank field asking for the web address of the IM server. I have tried all kinds of addresses and searched all sorts of sites for the right address, but I still get the "cannot connect to the service" error.
When I open IM on my Vivaz Pro, I am prompted to create a server. When I click Yes, I am shown a screen with "access point in use" as one of the options. It is currently set to "must be defined". When I press it to edit it (I cannot save with the setting "must be defined") I am prompted to "define an access point in settings. I return to the main menu and open settings>connectivity>destinations, the only screen I have found with references to access points. After setting all access points on this screen to my home WiFi network, I return to IM only to be faced with the exact same problem.Also, I have set my home WiFi network up in the settings page, but whenever I leave that page, it changes from "connected" to "known", preventing me from accessing the internet.
I recently bought the Vivaz U5 and I'm loving it. The only problem I'm facing is with the IM Application installed within the device. I've tried so many solutions found online and on this forum as well but nothing worked for me. I would really like to use the application to access my Hotmail & Yahoo! IM accounts without having to refer to other application such as eBuddy or nimbuzz. Can I get a real pro.
I am using "Sony Ericsson Vivaz". First time I had install some "sys" files and "jar" files, but now can't install sys files, now installing jar files and java files only, getting tow type error messages, if the mobile date is correct "certificate expired". When I am changing time to back certificate may not yet be valid, is expired or the phone date set may be incorrect". I am already done formating phone, memory card and updating.
When I try to use the facebook application using 3g or wifi, it says connection error, or unable to complete login, I cant uninstall it and I've tried reinstalling it from the application store, but still does not work?
I'm thinking of purchasing an elm phone to replace my windows mobile and have been looking compatibility issues with outlook. I can't find anywhere guarenteeing I can sync my outlook contacts and diary with the phone. There seems to be a sync software available but it doesn't seem to have that many details about it just screen shots.
I just spent most of the day getting the PC Suite (6.011.00) to work with IVT BlueSoleil. So here's how I got it to work. I wanted to use Bluetooth but my laptop doesn't have BT so I got the BlueSoleil USB dongle. Basically, Windows failed to install the BlueSoleil device properly yesterday so I ran the BlueSoleil setup.exe. Big Mistake. PC Suite couldn't see Bluetooth at all.
But the BlueSoleil app could do file transfer etc. So the bluetooth pairing/connection etc. was working for BlueSoleil's app but the Sony Ericsson PC Suite couldn't access it at all. Sony Ericsson support were totally useless - they refused to provide any troubleshooting at all for the problem because they don't make the BT dongle. And they wouldn't even recommend a BT dongle that they know to work. Anyway, after much cursing and rebooting, here's what worked:Don't run BlueSoleil's setup.exe!
I uninstalled the IVT BlueSoleil software and uninstalled the BT Radios from the Device Manager. I then rebooted and plugged the dongle in. Windows attempted an install and most of it succeeded but a couple of bits (BT peripheral or something failed). Then the Windows Control Panel / Bluetooth Devices could see my C510. Then running PC Suite allowed it to see BT and go right through to connect to the phone, etc. Hope that might save someone a few hours.
There's a firmware compatibility issue of W595 with HPM-85 handsfree. Everytime I connect HPM-85 handsfree to my W595 for listening to music, the walkman application pops up with an error message saying "Playback Failed", also, sometimes the handsfree gets disconnected automatically from the firmware and shows a message asking, "Continue Playback Through Speakers" (the firmware disconnects the handsfree automatically even when the handsfree is plugged into the phone).
I checked my HPM- 85 handsfree on other Sony Ericsson phones and turned out that it works fine with no problems mentioned above. Also, I looked up using the handsfree which came with the phone to make sure if my phone had any issue, and it had no problems as above. So I guess its a firmware compatibility issue with HPM-85. I request you to get this issue notified to the Sony Ericsson firmware developers team to fix this bug asap and release a new firmware update.
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?
My Vivaz Pro has frozen twice now. Pressing the touch screen or any of the buttons does nothing. I can't even switch it off. I had to remove the battery and re-insert it to get going again. Does anyone know why this happens ?
What kind of Vivaz do I have? I bought a U5i but the phone says in: Settings-Telephone-Telephone-Telephone managing-about that it is an U5 (Not the U5i). The menu names in English are my guesswork as my Vivaz is in Swedish.
Is it not possible to watch webb tv with Vivaz? The symbol for flash player appears when try to open the streams so seems the installed flash player doesn't manage. Do I have to download another flash player or is it not possible at all to view tv?
Had my vivaz a month or so now supplied by 3, it came with some demos already installed on the phone, i went to try tetris but instead of offering to let me play it i had to buy it. Anyway i bought the game from my phone and when i go to play, the bottom half of the screen is filled with a cursor interface (with up down left right buttons then A B C D along the bottom) and the top half is tetris.... when i start the game i get asked if i want sound enabled but cant see the yes or no options beacuse of the interface blocking bottom half of phone (no matter what, all i can do is continue with the sound on which is annoying!) then i get a option to play game, i press random buttons and then the game starts.... i cant move the blocks left or right and i cant see where they are landing. Can you remove the cursor interface on the vivaz? Dont want to buy anymore games unless i get this same problem.
I have had my Vivaz for several months with absolutely no problems.However it has just stuck and would not allow anything to be selected so I turned the phone off to restart and now it will not load past the white Sony Ericsson start up screen - any ideas?
Today, I got a replacement for my Vivaz because it had broken and couldn't be fixed. When I put my memory card in which I used in my old vivaz, it still says there is no music, photos or videos. Although when I have put my memory card in different phones to check it hasn't been wiped or something, my stuff comes up. Just not when my memory card is in this new phone. When I remove my memory card it says "Unsafe to remove memory card without selecting remove memory card first."Is this some kind of setting, and is this whats causing the problem?
On my phone i have unplugged my charger and the bit i plug it into has fallen out, i have been everywhere to try and fix it, even the place i bought it from and they have all said it is too hard of a job or they have told me to go on the sony ercisson and get a quote off them, but i dont know how too, where/how do i do this? how much will it cost and stuff?
