Hi, i will try to be as helpful as i can, but unfortunately i dont own a ray. I do own an xperia mini though and i would say that sometimes i do get some haptic rattle. Have had the same in non SE phones too and generally its a problem with the tiny little vibration module inside the phone. Best thing to do is either ignore it as its not gonna do damamge or take your phone back and swap it OR try an fix youself as sony ericcsons are reasonably easy to take apart!

The vibration delay or sensitivity can help.

xperia mini vs xperia neo vs RAy

hi guys, what do ye recommend? The mini or the neo or the ray? im a fan of the smaller size like the mini, really like the size of the phone, but seems that the camera on the neo and ray is a lot better, and camera is very important to me.
which one would you recommend? the amount of megapixel doesnt bother me but the picture quality, yes
any advice?
They have same hardware, only difference is about screen size and camera. U must decide what is more important to you, if you want better camera take the neo and if size is more imprtant then you will take mini we can't help you to decide what u need more.
if you just want android and basic apps, go for mini. if you want to play HD games, go for neo
thanks for the replys, so i was going for the neo, went to the shop to buy it and turns out the neo as reached end of the line, so was going for the ray, well the ray as been recalled, so finally mini it was.

dont know much, only that when i asked for the ray the guy on the shop said they didnt have any, the ones they sold, customers came back with problems and sony recall them back including the ones from other carphones warehouse.
does NFS hot pursuit can be play normally in xperia ray..? i mean,in my x8,the on-screen button is not located properly. i have to touch somewhere else so the onscreen button to detect the touch. example, i need to touch somewhere above the garage icon to enter the garage.
so...does the on-screen button works perfectly on xperia ray..?

These things are affected by the way the developer targets the screen resolution. Your X8 has a 320x480 resolution, standard until a couple of years ago but quite uncommon today and not usually targeted by developers of high-spec games. Consequently they sometimes don't optimise or even test for lower or unusual resolutions.
The Ray has an 854x480 display, a resolution that is already pretty common and becoming increasingly so, and I'm pretty sure that a 'big' title like NFS will have been optimised for all common resolutions so you shouldn't have any problem. Indeed, there are plenty of videos on You Tube showing it running on Play & Arc etc. which have the same resolution.
This link has more on the need to consider differing aspect ratios when developing on Android:

Wildfire S or Xperia Live with Walkman

Hey Guys - trying to decide which one to choose from - Can get them basically at the same price ...
I have tried playing around with both - main points to look at - speed and camera.
The XLWW is definitively faster - but the images taken at artifical light - seemed more yellowish (should've been white) + there was more noise and less detail. The Wildfire S on the other hand made better low-light photos but was a bit sluggish as compared to the much nicer interface the XLWW had ?
Another point is : HD video on XLWW vs 640/480 on the Wildfire S
Oh and I am really keen on the Wildfire S design (not that the XLWW is that bad but the WIldfire is better).
Which one is the better one at the end - what is your opinion ?
I would go for the XLWW. 50% of my opinion 'cause I'm a Sony Fan.

What about the other 50% What's it based on ?
I've used them both and I also recommend the XLWW, it's just better than the Wildfire.

Thanks - I think the wt19i is better myself - it's just that the camera issue is kinda important to me and the little test I made in the shop didn't convince me to take it ... I know it's a low-end phone - but still 5mp is supposed to make decent images at least.
I have had short experiences with both phones. And I would choose Sony Xperia LWW over HTC Wildfire S any day because.. its..
Newer (October, 2011 vs May, 2011).
Will soon get ICS (and this is a big one for me).
Lot more processing power (1GHz vs 600 Mhz) - this will matter a lot if you plan on keeping the phone for a while.. there is so much in the Play Store and you would want to install a lot of apps.. the more processing power, the merrier.
Music is really loud - although yes it distorts at high volumes but its awesome.. especially when watching youtube videos with friends in high noise areas).
Got a front-facing camera. I am an avid Skype user so it was a must for me.
Regarding Camera.. yes, Wildfire S is definitely better with stills.. but i would say it's a little compromise over LWW's ICS love and greater processing power. And moreover, LWW can shoot 720p videos..!
All said.. i still love to hold Wildfire S over LWW. But verdict - Sony Xperia Live With Walkman.
Hit Thanks button if I helped.
My vote for "Sony Live With Walkman", there are several reasons.
1Ghz processor
512 RAM
Start ICS 4 update this week onwards.

you think ics will improve the camera stills on the lww ?
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=3777&idPhone2=4111
definetly se lww
cause its faster,looks better, camera is better, sound quality is better and better development support

No, i don't think so. Xperia Neo V had some picture quality issues too with GB and it hasn't changed with ICS.
But, you can always post-process images to remove that yellowish tint.

the yellowish tint is easily removed - I would be more concerned in the loss of detail made some test photos at a shop today - compared to the wildfire s - the lww had significantly low detail when image is zoomed ...
otherwise all the rest seems much better - but I am hoping his could somehow be a software issue

Yeah indeed, its a software issue coz it overcompress images but I am not sure if there's a fix for that yet.. maybe some senior member could shed some light on that (anyone listening?), have you tried googling it..?
But even if you decide not to go for LWW, Wildfire S is still a big NO, the processor is really dated. What other phones have you considered..? Is Xperia Neo V (there is a bit price drop with the launch of Sony Xperia Sola) and HTC One V within your price range..?

actually had a look at the Neo V and the picture quality of the camera was pretty much the same - which lead me to the conclusion that the problem might be coz of the software... or a crappy camera matrix.
anyways - the lww works really like a beast with the regular rom that it comes with I was looking at it in the shop and was impressed - let alone with a custom rom - just maybe waiting on a fix for the overcompressed image - wasn't there going to be a less compressed version of the image coming with the ics ? (as a setting ?)

No official word from Sony about the setting, just street rumors, which got proved wrong with Neo V, so hopes are low for LWW too. Yeah, u r right about the stock rom - m a big time timescape user - looks beautiful, works cool.

I truly hope this gets fixed - I see the same problem with Neo, Neo V, LWW, ARC - pretty much most of the late 2011 phones have this issue ... so until a fix is released I will be pretty much holding off.
And you won't have to wait for long.. coz ICS coming to LWW soon starting in a couple days as per the official Sony blog. Start asking around on ICS related threads.

.. and man i just realized its the android 4.0.4..! The ICS update on Neo V I was talking about earlier was 4.0.3. This time, both LWW and Neo V will get 4.0.4. And some guys here at XDA saying we will get a new kernel too.
So hopes are high again for a fix for the camera.

fingers crossed so that I can get one I passed on my birthday yesterday coz of the camera issue - but if it gets fixed I'm getting me a brand new toy
I would go definitelly for Xperia. HTC is compared to Xperia waaay slower. I had both of them in had, so I can tell.

[Q] [XPERIA U] Speaker volume is way too low ...

Dear Xperia U users ... did you find your speaker volume is very low ???? It barely noticable in crowd. The demo XPERIA U demo video said it has Crisp and Loud Sound. But mine is the other way around.
And XLoud feature just make the sound worse. It didn't loud at all (OK it made it louder, but the sound is terrible, like there's crackling sound). Even my previous Nexus S still louder than this.
I really sad

If you need a louder speaker for music, you could try Poweramp player. It has an equaliser preset for the phone speaker which makes it a lot louder!
Maybe it helps!

I listen to my music with earphone, so music player is not really a concern. It's the ringtone volume
Same problem here, ringtones volume is too low. I hope in a dev who solves the problem.
Im getting tired of all sony bull****.

i gifted xperia u to my sister and its first impression disappointed me..
it f***ing has the same crackling problem, i trashed sony mobiles people hard for this on facebook and everywhere possible...
i talked to sony customer service on this, the rep himself said i am also using the same phone i can understand your situation lol !! can u believe it?!
i asked if i can get a call back from sony for telling that yes they'll improve the speaker volume or not? via futher software updates as that's what's left a chance genuinely, though he said he cannot commint but will mention the same ..
i got a call yesterday even from senior manager of sony, he said to get your phone once updated from a service centre they have a different firmware, i said i even updated it n even repaired it.. he said no they still have a different firmware by which the volume will get high but he didn't commited for the crackling problem then though he said it should also get fine.....
i havn't given my phone as i don't beleive it..... i want to keep it clean and just in 5 days i give it in a service centre no way... so i am counting on its future updates that it gets fine then....
i totally accept xloud makes its sound alot worse like a china phone playing music loud.... i would have understood if it was really loud but in the end its not even loud then why stuttering or crackling?! bullsh*t man !!
I compare it's sound with Xperia P by playing the stock mp3, the P clearly louder than U (and Sola too, it's just as low as U).
Maybe XU is just another failed / defective Sony crap just like X10 Mini Pro / Zylo ...
I managed to live with 4GB storage ... but this is just ... FUUUUUU Sony !!!!!!!!
Maybe the reason is because they still used SE logo instead of SONY on the back cover ...

My God you are so *****in right man, even in its earphone accessory in box, on its tag its written sony ericsson!! wtfffff?!?!
its accessories all has sony ericsson written on it and somewhere its logo like on the back of xperia u, xperia s, xperia p, etc . This means what i believe is sony is first helping sony ericsson to sell of its already created models just adding sony written with few features of sony in it mayb..... as its sony now . Then real sony models totally being sony will start selling off . I may not be totally correct but i am not wrong on many points aswell !
All this hate ??? I can live with that volume happily atleast it has a dualcore processor and a good collection of stock roms... well if you're really looking for a high volume phone then buy a china mobile... to be honest you can't hear anything when you'll be in crowd even if you have xperia x8 right? so be thankful what you have.

[Q] Xperia Mini - Xperia Ray

Hello all great people ! Sorry for opening a new thread, but i would like your opinions.. Tomorrowi am going to change my Xperia Mini for an Xperia Ray for 20-30 €....is this change good? Or maybe shouldn't i do this, and keep my Xperia Mini?
Thanks in advance.
Actually Xperia ray is better than mini in every aspect but buying a 2011-line model in 2013 is a bit weird...Anyways please don't create these kinds of threads in general section
Best Regards,
AJ
Dont miss the ICON FARM!
For 20/30€ it's okay, but remember ray is an old phone, too!
Have fun with your new phone :good:
Have at least dual core phone those both are single core with limited ram 512 user available 390 only if u r sony fan

Xperia sola
Sent from my MT11i using xda premium

why do you want to go to another phone that has a same specification? both of them use 512mb ram only and single core processor. i think it will be outdated soon.

I sold my Arc to get a Ray and so glad I did, I think it (Ray) will be the only Phone I've ever owned that I won't be selling on as it's a gorgeous little device that does everything I need, although will still be updating to a new Xperia ASAP, just not sure which, the Z is a bit big for me and if Sony stays with the current trend of releasing mini tablet sized Phones then I'll happily stick with my Ray.

Sadly, with 1ghz single core cpu, ray will never run ubuntu mobile. And also 512mb ram makes me little bit disappointed. but overall with that price , ray offer a good spec.
