i try to download app's from android market nothing happens, all that happens when i touch install is the message "starting download", which stays there indefinitley, has anyone else had this problem & can someone solve it..
Its too easy to download apps that cost which you dont want iv already been stung for £15 of downloads i didnt know i had done Can you set a password to stop this happening??
I've been trying to update a couple of applications that I have on my phone but everytime I try to download anything from marketplace, it just says "starting dowload..." and stays there. The application never actually downloads.I've dowloaded stuff in the past but I can't seem to download now. Is there something that I need to turn on
I have an X8 with the 2.1 Android update, I have noticed that if I try to download something using my wi-fi internet while the phone is connected to the PC then the download gets stuck, any further downloads also dont progress and it is not possible to even cancel the downloads in such a case. Only solution I have found is doing a factory reset. But I am afraid it might happen again, if I download apps while the phone is connected and I dont want to have to reset it again.
Every time I mount my X10 to download photo's, there's always 2 of each photo in the Gallery on my laptop. I've checked the settings and all over google for an answer but to no avail. It's not a huge deal but I have to go through all my photo's and delete the spare one, as it's annoying if i'm viewing them as a slideshow. I'm not sure if it's the laptop or the x10 setting's but pretty sure it must be the x10.
I'm trying to dowload applications from 'market' and when I click on the application and press on Install I get the 'Accept permiossion' prompt and then press 'ok' . On receiving the 'Item downloading'n message I assume that everythiong is ok but that's where the process stops and my applications seem to be in a frozen state of download without ever actually downloading.
I've visited the Orange store in Leicester today and waited 40 minutes for an 'Expert' to tell me that the fault lies with Android 2.1 and if I download 2.2, everything will be fine. Oh how I wish. Clearly 2.2 is not available as a download for the X10 and I'm now at my wits end as to know what to do apart from taking a large sleddgehammer to the phone!
I just got my new X8 almost two weeks now, and was finally able to update to 2.1. However, I cannot download any apps from the Android Market, as they just get stuck at the "Starting download" phase. I'm using a WiFi connection, and the browser works just fine so it's not a connectivity issue. I've factory reset the phone several times, uninstalled Android Market and cleared its cache countless times, and the downloads still stay stuck.
Has this happened to anyone else?Yesterday I received a notification about a software update. I was advised to carry out the update via a PC which I did. Followed the instructions to the letter. Installed the Update Service, downloaded the software and the installation began. After several minutes I was told the installation was unsuccessful and now my phone will not turn on. There is no OS so my phone is completely useless.Is there any way to roll back the failed installation to the previous software version?I have only had the phone 3 months
I dropped my phone at work today and now when I try to switch it on it won't go any further than the Sony Ericsson logo on the welcome screen, after that point it just freezes, and if I leave it on that screen the battery eventually dies. It's been dropped several times before but after every time it still worked perfectly - I've not had any problems with it until now. I can still charge it and connect it to the computer but without being able to select the USB connect I obviously can't open the PC companion.Basically what I'm asking is - is there any way for this to be fixed? Or will I have to replace it?
I've googled this problem and everyone seems to have it. The X10 does not charge the phone anymore. We think its a USB connection in the phone thats causing the problem. Soetimeswhen i move the cable (Where it connects to the phone) around abit I can get a charge but lately nothing at all. Tried other usb cords and battery's and still nothing. It just happened out of the blue.
i have xperia play factory unlocked R800i .i update my phone via wifi and my phone has bricked and i have fixed but the phone has become locked phone and the phone can't read any sim card and if i insert any sim card the phone said there is not sim card in the phone
I have the xperia x10 mini and it is not charging properly anymore. This is my THIRD phone because the others had the same problem! Iv had new chargers and kept my phone off to charge it and it still will not work properly. The battery is built inside the phone so I cannot remove it at all. why my phone wonnt charge?
I tried to close some applications on my phone to improve battery and as a result i have accidentially done something to the phone which has stopped the 'add' button on the menu key has stopped working and is no longer highlighted. I cant work out how to get it to turn back on.
The (default) camera app used to work fine. But suddenly it would not anymore:
1. When I press the button to activate the camera, it will not start the camera app anymore.
2. When I start the (default) camera app manually, it will start, leave the content of the viewfinder black and freeze: I need to reboot the phone because none of the buttons (back, menu, home) will react.
3. Alternatively, after about 2 minutes the frozen application will kill itself (I have no autokiller installed!)
Would uninstalling and re-installing the (default) camera app If yes, how would I get it uninstalled and where would I get the camera.apk to download from to re-install it?
we have 3 mini pros, mine, wife and workmate.we are all having the same issue which is our phone will no longer connect to wifi we have tried the following-
-updated firmware 2.1
-made sure signal strength is excellant
-reset settings
-reset modem and made sure password and security details are correct
-used different modems and wifis to test the phone
-downloaded and used wifi apps ie wifi fixer etc
- read the hundreds of suggestions in different forums regarding this issue with this phone... noone has had any real success. maybe one or two people like i said, we have 3 of these phones with 3 different wifi modems. and have tried connecting to other wifi... it just refuses to connect its a shame becuase i can speak for the others in saying , if i knew the wifi didnt work on this phone we would never of bought it.
For 2 days I am not able to download anything from Android Market. Did any of you have this problem? Internet connection is OK. I was able to download from the Market, but suddenly I can't do it anymore. I think this is an OS problem. I read about in on Android site forum.
What is going on with this fingerprint scanner?  It worked well for the first few months.  Now It:  1) automatically buzzes and attempts a scan 5x in a row when I press the unlock button then locks the phone and requires pin. 2) does not even show the fingerprint scanner in the diagnostic menu 3) does not allow me to even register new fingerprints - I open the fingerprint software to scan new fingerprints and it closes.  I've attached an image.  This has to be a software glitch. I've already resetted my phone and same thing.
I tried with both the standard email (error message could not download attachment)Â app and Nine (progress bar stops) it's not working anymore. I have deleted and re-installed Nine, deleted the email account and added it again, changed the email download size to all, countless restarts, unmount / mount SD card - nothing worked so far.
With 5.1.1 any app that used setRingerMode(silent) no longer works. So putting the phone in silent mode is now broken for lots of the 3rd party apps.The D5803, D6653, D6503 go into vibrate mode, but not into silence mode.Â
I set up sync when first installing the PC companion, and everything has worked great until a few days ago. Now it won't sync and I keep getting random alerts day and night. I've checked the settings and I have a random looking username which I can't change as it's greyed and not selectable. Password is hidden but only shows 8 chars and not 10 as it should be. The only way to stop the annoying alerts is switch background data traffic off, but then my apps like sat nav need it!
why my phones slide unlock thing aint there anymore.when i have my phone in my pocket its not locked and i end up doing things without realising it.usually you push the button then slide the bar across to unlock it. im confused. also this phone is trippy as **** ie: restarting on its own,freezing and crashing etc.
All of a sudden the profile pics from Facebook are not linking through to my contacts and texts anymore. Been on phone to helpdesk and no luck. Tried allsorts.
I have just done a software repair from PC Helper to enable me to be able to access the Android Marketplace. (something I've not been able to do since the day I got the phone, over a year ago).However, this has done a factory reset & I am now no longer able to access Facebook, which has been no problem since I got the phone.I'm getting a message which says 'an error had occurred during the sign in. try again later'?
