Questions? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just started using this phone due to my inspire being pretty damaged. Just curious if the lights behind the home button can be changed to a different color? Also I'm on a custom rom. Unlocked bootloader and rooted. Also is anyone having issues about touch problems? I could type fast on my inspire but sometimes this phone doesn't really catch them :/ sorry I'm new to flashing Sony stuff but not new to android or flashing overall.

The only times I've seen the ability to change those is if the custom rom gives you the option in developer settings.

No, I don't think You can change the colour of the LEDs. The touchscreen isn't so responsive as in other devices like eg. SGS2, so I think You have to get used to it.

Unresponsive touch screen

So, recently, my touch screen has been pretty wonky. Sometimes it doesnt work at all and even pulling the battery and booting it back up doesn't fix it. Sometimes when it locks The screen isn't responsive afterwards to unlock but then locking and waking the screen again fixes it. Just wondering if there is a fix for this or if anyone else has had these same problems. I've trued full CWM wipes and Fastboot wipes and also tried different ROMs. Any help would be cool but if not I may just have to ditch the MAtrix for a different phone until my upgrade.
What is your phone currently running at the moment?

I got the same issue, when charging my Atrix, touchscreen won't work.
I'm running CM9 alpha6 by Jokersax
For those having issues while charging, make sure you are using a motorola charger. Please give results back.

So, I've been using the Wet Dream blur ROM for the past week and it's acting about the same way. I haven't had to go to the extreme of wiping it yet while on Wet but unresponsiveness is still a problem here and there.
EDIT: I haven't had touch capability since the 10th. I've tried flashing a couple other ROMs to no avail and don't really know what to do at this point.
Is a warranty claim even possible or would it just be a futile effort?
EDIT II: Sent it in on a warranty claim. We will see what happens I suppose. If not, I'm going GSII
EDIT The Third: Well, after fruitcake back to stock I sent it in and they fixed it all up and sent it back to me. So, that's that for what it's worth. Like the sig says my MAtrix got stolen so I'm on to the GSII forums but I'm definitely going to keep up with what's going on with Atrix.

[Q] Keyboard Issues

I'm not sure if its cause iv'e flashed so many ROMS but my keyboard isn't as responsive as it used to be, i can rarely hit the P key anymore it always will click the O button. Also when it write "hahahahahaha" the A key stops working and only H's will come up like this "Hahahahhhahahhh" something like that. Can anyone help me fix this? Or suggest what I should do?
So i'm guessing i might be the only one? or no one else knows what to say?
Never heard of this. Do you run superwipe after wiping and b4 flashing rom?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA
What's superwipe?
Superwipe is a program that you flash, it does a very good wipe of everything, after you have aleady wiped everything. Ive been using one since the dinc days, never had an issue.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA
Could you give me a download link for it? i might as well start using it now haha.
No I've had this happen as well. It happens with A, S, D, J, K, and L for me. As if it's just those two little strips.
It's only happened recently too though, and has happened even if I use different roms and wipe fully. I might try that Superwipe deal though, I'm hesitant to give up my T-Bolt as I've heard it's the only phone with simultaneous voice/data and 4G.
That would be a hardware problem( i had the same thing).... put ur phone to stock and call vzw.... they will send u out a new one as long as its under warranty

Touch screen gives 'circle'

Since yesterday evening, being on the recent stock rom (not latest one; not upgrading automatically unfortunately), the screen gives a small dot/circle where-ever I touch the screen. So it is moving with me, e.g. when unlocking the screen, even when pressing a phone number. I have restarted a few times already. As said, I am on stock ROM, although I rooted my SG3. Any thoughts ?

This only happens to me when I'm trying to use my phone while it is plugged in and charging. It acts all crazy, but once I unplug it the thing works fine. I pretty much keep my phone in ECO mode and haven't switched that off to see if it makes a difference.
Same here. I keep my phone on ECO mode and have no issues with responsiveness, except for once in a while when it's plugged in and charging.

That's horse ****! Someone has to come up with a fix for this! Doesn't eco mode cap the processors at 1.1 or something?

Seems cycling the screen off and back on will get rid of the lag....until it happens again....lol

I DO have that problem with mine. I am unlocked, rooted and running nottach's Base ROM the problem has reoccurred with the stock ROM and versions 0.5, 0.6.5 and 0.7.3 .
It's probably a kernel-level memory or CPU issue because for most people it appears to be a specifically time-based problem. The longer your uptime is, the worse the problem gets. Reboot your phone and the problem goes away for awhile.

Amrando, inflammatory and unhelpful statements aren't going to win you any help with your problems. It's just alienating those that would otherwise help you out and gets you reported to the mods.

I've edited your post. This is a great example of the same phone, running a similar set up behaving completely different. The user you quoted wasn't doing anything other than stating that they don't have this problem so chill out a little and accept that each person can have a different experience and opinion. If you've got nothing useful to say, say nothing.

Do we really need to root right now?

So I've been debating if to root or not for a couple of days now, I just got the phone last week, so I'm still getting used to sense 5.
Now heres what I ask myself, knowing that the development for our specific device is a bit slow, and flashing one of the international roms will make us loose some key features (like wifi calling).
It has me thinking what would be the real benefit to root out device right now?

If you have to ask, then don't root.

Bingo. Don't root without a compelling reason.
Im still not rooted and I have not missed it that much,
When AOSP gets stable on this phone however I will probably root and try it out and see If I prefer it over sense

i will be getting mine today, and i will root right away, mainly because i want to use the htc logo as a menu button and disable those three dots
I rooted mine day one (I got mine the day they released last month)
I am running a great ROM and I dont regret rooting one bit, it was totally worth it for the ROM that I am using right now. I still have WiFi calling and more.
Which Rom are you using?
And what features does it have if you don't mind me asking.

It has the latest HTC build for this phone, that includes better camera and GPS fixes and better response with the touch buttons. The phone seems snappier and it has better battetylife and it has no more bloat and in benchmarks I score higher now. I can install adaway on my phone now. And more will be in the 8.0 release. I also like the mods (like the percentage battery mod)

From what I've read none of the international roms have wifi calling....
I mean I know I can flash custom kernels and get certain things like HTC2menu or back2menu...
But as far as roms I thought they werent none out for us specifically right now... Or maybe I'm mistaken...

That ROM does have WiFi calling. It has tmobile specific features in the installer. You should try it out.

I have rooted every phone I've owned within 3 days of getting it. However, ive had my one for two weeks now and honestly I don't have a compelling reason to root. Bloat? Virtually non-existent. And what is there is "freezable" within the stock rom. Sense5 is remarkably robust, fast, and solid.
But that's just me.

I've been wanting to root but haven't yet. Only thing I want is WiFi tether and HTC button to work as menu key.
To me, I have to root HTC one due to annoyances. Don't get me wrong, sense is neat... But 3 dot menu bar needs to go, GPS indicator in the status bar is too clunky, and power saver message that won't go away??! If those things were different, I wouldn't root.

Gotta have Root for Me
There are alot of reasons for root for some users, and for some not so much. It is always one of the first things I do. You can have root and keep a stock ROM it just gives you options, and when you get bored with stock these amazing cooks on XDA always have something brewing for you to check out. Some of my reasons to root specific to the HTC One on TMO.
Flash a writable kernel so my system files are now writable. Currently using Bulletproof.
DoubleTap2Wake so I don't have to bang on the IR blaster all day. HTC buttons don't like to be used, they always end up failing or plain falling out.
got rid of the 3 button menu bar and now have the HTC Logo as the menu button. Sweeet!
Makes it easier to back up and restore. I use several devices so I can Box my Titanium files and quickly be in the same position across whatever device I decide to use at the time.
Customization. blue % battery mod, transparent app drawer, transparent blinkfeed clock. I can do custom icons and get rid on annoying ones likd NFC or GPS.
The most important is to beat the stupid enterprise settings on exchange. I have to have email on my device, but i cant stand using a PIN or Pattern. solution=root!

Root to use your Playstation 3 controller. =.3
That's the main reason. And there's a MOD that lets you map the HTC button. That's pretty cool. (Not to repeat what others have already stated)
Also, how important is WiFi Calling? People seem to really want that. I haven't used it. LoL!! I'm guessing it's good for those that travel a lot?
*Has my HTC One been shipped yet?* =.(

WiFi calling is pretty important to me, mainly because where I work I have zero signal but do have access to wifi (I'm right underneath the access point, which is nice).
Some people depend on it at home as well, such as my boss' son.
As far as root goes....I haven't rooted yet, I just haven't felt the need to. :shrug:
Only reason I rooted was to use my MOGA Pro as a regular gamepad. Now I'm running rooted stock ROM and cruising through FF7 in an emulator during my train commute
I am rooted running the ARHD 7.4 ROM with WiFi calling. It works great. Rooting allows me to use titanium backup for all my apps. Also making onandroid backups. And lots of little changes. Remove bloated apps, etc
