mini pro - GSM buzz - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hi,
A few months ago, I purchased a Sony Ericsson Xperia x10 mini pro form buy.com (US website). The phone has been working great except for one problem.
Whenever the phone is operating over GSM, quite a bit of “GSM buzz“ noise can be heard through the speaker. This obviously does not occur when a call is being placed over WCDMA (due to the different modulation technique).
Is my phone defective or is it a case of poor design? I was using a custom rom but I reverted back to the stock rom just to make sure. The problem is still there.
Thanks a lot!

[Q] Xperia Mini & Mini Pro to get 2.3 GREAT !

Well im talking about new launching xperia mini & mini pro NOT xperia x10 mini & mini pro
Guys i have a suggestion..... Let me know your views.
Well i think this way,
Since SE is not planning on giving any upgrade to xperia x10 mini & mini pro...But is going to give it to the new xperia mini & mini pro which SE is launching.....
I think we should all convince SE to give out an offer for existing xperia x10 mini & mini pro users to exchange their xperia x10 mini & mini pro for new xperia mini & mini pro (which they are lauching or i guess launched in some places) @ a minimal cost say between 20% - 50% of the new launching xperia mini & mini pro or whatever we all agree on???
Cant we trying doing this....?
XDA has lot of members & i think wid all this no. of members we can atleast try???
There's already rumours about the 1st gen mini & mini pro getting 2.3.
The newest source (Vodafone Australia Blog) has said they could be working on it within 6 weeks or less. So things are certinly looking good for those who have the older xperia range.
This is recived 2 weeks after it was announced that the x10 would get an update to 2.3 due to demand.

Odd, why would a carrier just drop a whole range of phones like that?
and oh yes, i heard it from vodafone staff too when i first bought my MP. but i didn't buy it too long after the 2.1 update, so i wasn't too fussed about the software, the design was what sold this phone to me
and then... i found you guys and all was good!
but now (mini pro) we have the full 5MP camera (not sure if the mini has it yet) in our custom roms im not sure that there is a point to getting it as on the x10 they didnt even update the kernel so i doubt there woould be any benefits unless they enabled multi touch further than we have from slades driver (e.g 3 point or the full 7)
Already have it.
Yeah to have the official one would be nice.
it's an aquired taste, some people don't want all the extra in the roms like Cyanogenmod. and just want the official upgrade

Because of bugs and problems and android not screaning aplications properly before putting them on market
Were only going to be doing wp iphone and blackberry
Such a shame I think
But also vodaphone au removed the post and commented on there fb page to say it was a mistake

Bought In Ears, not working with Mini Pro

Hello,
I just bought some Klipsch S4a, made for android. I tried them with my Xperia Mini Pro, but they're not working with it. On my PC they work fine.
The speaker of the phone is still doing the sound, and my new klipsch s4a are just making some roaring noises.
I'm running cyanogenmod 7.2 fxp109.
What could be the problem here? It's awful that they are not working. I've never had such a problem.

Some headphones does not support 2011 rang of xperia mobiles beacause they have different type of 3.5 mm jack..now 2012 xperia range have different size of 3.5 mm jack with respect to 2011 range.. so 2011 range headphone will not support 2012 range mobiles.. I think you get it.

[Xperia U] GPS so weak...

Hi guys,
I´m so in love with my Xperia U. I´m using it for about a month, moded with krabappel2548´s kernel and ROM (SSpeed Kernel & ROM).
But I´m very disapointed with its GPS. I don´t remmember if the stock firmware was good because I´ve unlocked and flashed it with 1 day of use.
I've tried some GPS fixed from here (thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=825717), but within 1 meter inside my apartment the GPS signal drops down, even in front a window, loosing the entire signal. Comparing to my previous android cellphone SE Xperia X10 mini pro (moded with GB 2.3.7 MiniCM7 and nAa kernel), the Xperia U really sucks. X10mp in the same conditions got a strong signal, with 5 meter accuracy and lots os satellites. I´ve got either the Motorola Xoom tablet (MZ605/MZ601 running JB from EOS XDA thread) and the accuracy and signal are strong even in the middle of my apartment (about 6 meters from all windows, accuracy flawless).
Ideas? Maybe I´ve got a bricked Xperia U?
Thank you,
Alexandre
The same matter is discussed all over Sony's forum. Its the problem with the software.
It reads the latitude and longitude as negative values, and the GPS ain't able to locate you. Atleast, that's what I understood.
And its fixable. They say: Wait for ICS
Some 2011 models had the same problem, and it was fixed by the ICS update.

Phone-tips, anyone? :)

My !"/!&"!= Samsung S4 died on me yesterday. Or, at least the screen did.. Honestly I've been NOTHING but angry with the phone since I buyed it in january. 4G/LTE has never worked (only 3G), ****ty wifi-signal and now the screen that died from nothing at all.. And it kept asking me for it's SIM card.
Anywho, before I baught the ()!"/!)"?!" samsung I had a HTC Desire HD which I actually loved. Yes, it was old in the end; but with the help of custom ROMS and this forum it worked perfectly until I lost it after 4 years.
I _need_ to buy a phone that can be rooted without toooo much trouble (damn Samsung's KNOX too!) and that is well developed for in here.
I'm thinking about these models as for now and is still looking for other options
LG G3 (a tiny bit expensive still)
LG G2
HTC One M7 (M8 is way to expensive for me still, so I'm thinking about the old one)
HTC One M8 (if I by some miraculous way won alot of money... It's sooo sexy!)
Huawei Ascend P7 (not that developed for here on XDA)
Xperia Z2 (a bit expensive)
Sony Xperia Z3 Compact
Xperia Z1 (Well developed for..)
Huawei Ascend Mate7 (No custom ROMS yet and so on.. But it seems possible to root, and the UI Huawei ships it with has inbuilt themeing. I'm addicted to pretty phones. Anyone know price-tag of this? It varies SO MUCH online in Norway as far as I can see)
LG/Google Nexus 5 (only 16GB internal memory and no free slot for more.. But will I care?)
Xiaomi Mi 4 (Not that developed for... Yet? Hard to get ahold of when you need the international version?)
Sony Xperia Z Ultra (It's soooo huge, isn't it? I had a S4, and it was HUGE in my small girl-hands.)
Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (Still a bit expensive, and then there's the KNOX...)
Oneplus One

What was the model of the earphone provided with the Xperia M4 Aqua?

Hello
I bought a Sony Xperia M4 Aqua long time ago.
I change several times my phone but I still use the headset (earphones) because it was pretty robust and I love sound quality.
Today, it's become older. I'd like to find exactly the same (or better)?
Do you know the name, model, model number of this headset?
Many thanks
