Hi all!
Is it just me or the new update of the market is not good for our x10 mini? i can't see anything because of the new design... why does google certificate devices and then create such a rubbish update that doesn't fit in our mobile phones?
sorry for my english,
bye!
I've just noticed that my market got updated too.
Some text gets chopped off, like the Install button and the browsing categories.
hey buddy my android market is not updated and i tried to update it by the setup but did not get success
No root for update.

Got the update.
My phone keeps rebooting today when I start the market. Anyone else seeing this?
i've had no issues with it...
but as the others have mentioned, it is ugly... seems unfitting for our small screen resolution
Also got the update. Don't know when that happened, it must have updated in the background.
My device is rooted (z4root), and the update of the market has not interfered in any way with it.
I'm also disappointed in the user interface. Before it was much better.
looks like it has been updated again, i can see all the text now
yes they have fixed it, but it's still awful for our small screen... I'm so angry...
however i have a rooted x10 mini pro and no problem with this updates
guys, if you want the new market to look better, you can tilt the phone to landscape mode, it's not that great but i find it easier to read.

First off I want to say that MacRom is the most stable/speedy ROM I've used so far (thanks for all the hard work!).
Just a couple issues with the new MR8 update:
1. The new market seems to be really slow? (maybe just due to the older Eris' lack of speed?)
2. I don't know if this is a market related issue or not, but I can't install a couple apps I use. The market doesn't give me an option to even download them: Words with Friends and Google Books. I'm not sure if it's related to the new market or if the apps are somehow incompatible with the new MR8 update?
3. Is there a way to get rid of the blue line that appears whenever you tap the screen to make a selection? I've been searching but have yet to find a way. The line just kind of annoys me, personally.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I love this ROM! Thanks!
Dude the same thing has been happening the past two days for me on Deadly and Spicy ROMs. For instance I had not been able to get Titanium but I got my Pro key fine, and same thing with XDA, regular worked fine but couldn't download premium. I took a nap earlier and woke up and had premium I'm about to check Titanium so it may be a Market issue.

Good to know. Hopefully it's just a market issue then, but still no luck for me...
same here
i too am wondering why i can't download certain apps from the market, like facebook for example. it's not already installed and i get no download button for that app in the market...but i get download button for most other apps.
also wondering about how to get rid of blue bar on menu selections.

I've seen the same issues with MR8 and MR9... I'm looking into the issue, but haven't found a work-around yet. I'm thinking it may possibly be a result of the build revision bump to 2.3.5 that might be throwing the market off (showing the phone as incompatible with your device), but it's only a theory, no fact to that yet...
Glad to know I'm not the only one as I have been having trouble downloading my premium apps too. I flashed 2.3.5 yesterday. I'm a noob so I was wondering what I Fk'd up... LOL!

I clicked on Market the other day and it has completely changed, yet my daughter's phone, exactly the same as mine, still has the "old" Market, as do two mate's phones.
Does anyone else have this, or have I clicked on something I shouldn't have?
I want the old one back!
PS: Just noticed it's Build Version 3.1.3.
I also noticed that it's a tad slower than the old market..
On my phone new market is more fast! (on Nexus S)
in mine (desire hd) also faster.
Thanks for the replies.
I've also noticed that if I turn Market off after starting a download, it stops downloading/installing, whereas the old version didn't.
Also, I just discovered that you can scroll sideways for Top Paid, Top Free, Top Grossing, etc., and something called 'Trending'.
If you don't like it hit Menu, go to Settings, Applications, Manage Applications, All, Market and hit uninstall updates.

Thanks Dastin, but I've kinda got used to it now, once you suss out how it works it is actually quicker, and getting easier, plus, now I know I can get rid of it I feel better.
I still wonder why it chose my phone to update itself, and not on other's phones.
Not a fan of the new market...
It's slower on my Phone, and it's too messy!
My phone hasn't still got the new market... But I downlaoded and installed it manually from here.
New Market is very good in UI and the way it presents the applications to its users is simply awesome!!!
Looks great so far. The Home launcher is much more responsive so I can do away with ADW EX for now.
Kind of wish there were more small apps, but browser, calculator and IR remote are great choices for those and they work terrifically.
What do you guys think so far?

Uninstall from settings and go in as market... That fixed it for me...
The tablet was initially very laggy after the update but a reboot seemed to fix things, with the exception of the notification menu. It stutters very noticeably and is extremely annoying. Many apps also don't rotate properly anymore.
Still better than Honeycomb despiute those drawbacks.

DAMN YOU SONY!!!
Things i hate:
- this annoying wifi keepalive issue is still there!!! there is no way to keep wifi active during standby -.- damned why don't they let us users the choice... there IS an option to set the standby behavior but its still completely useless....
- sometimes there are widget issues (doesn't matter if 3rd party or preinstalled) that widgets change into editor mode when just pressing a button like update... changing screen ang going back will fix this temporarily... had this 2 times now...
- auto brigtness issue still not resolved... in low light the screen is MUCH too dark and when changing from full brightess to automatic it keeps full for a while and then goes down to min
- homescreen lag is still too much in portrait
- forced portrait is still not changable (damn i'm righthanded and want to hold it on the ROUND side when portrait is forced!!!!)
- the new ICS launcher... Sonys previous own launcher had a better overview with the sorting possibilities but ok we can have folders now...
- still no thumb keyboard -.-
things i like:
- media from SD card is now directly available and nut just for transfer... finally i have enough memory also without root and mounting stuff ^^
- the new mini-apps are nice but there is still much potential for more apps
- the new version of "Favorites" App is very nice animated and faster
- ICS possibility to deactivate system apps that are not removable... finally i get this google music player away
- a few other ICS related things...
ALL IN ALL this update is a big disappointement... they updated to ICS, integrated one or thwo new features and that's it??? all the big issues are still there since more than six months!!!!!
I have personally had a fantastic experience with the ICS update. Everything seems faster across the board. Menus more responsive, faster browser, better keyboard response/feedback. I also like the ICS look and feel and the mini apps. Really happy with the update so far.
I used to be able to DL directly to my SD Card, and using ES File Manager to move files around. Now it refuses to do so. Anyone else having this issue? If not, what file manager are you using?
My tablet seems to have gone really slow after the ICS update.
I tried a factory restore to ensure that I didnt have too many things installed and decided to start afresh. Didnt help. The tablet is still very slow. While the touch is responsive and I like the features of ICS like slide to dismiss, reading files directly from SD card etc, I definitely donot like the amount of lag I am noticing.
All my apps seem to be really really slow.
My Honeycomb seemed to be far more faster irrespective of all the issues that it had.
Any suggestions anyone?? I am on non rooted US version 16Gb Wifi.

Have you tried going into Settings > Developer Options and tick "Force GPU rendering"?
I'm thinking of buying the sony tablet s. I've read on various reviews that this tablet's battery life is not that impressive (Honeycomb0, is that true? And btw how is the battery life after the ics update? Is there any improvement?
someone can connect tablet with PC on MTP usb
i tried many times but i couldn't
ics update
i havent played around much since the update but the little time i did spend with my tab i found it more responsive and smoother.... i am liking the ics update... dont know why others having issues but i think we should give it a couple of days so that all issues are ironed out....

On the first time, it took a while to show up as windows tried to reinstall the drivers for the tablet. Maybe you should keep it connected on USB and wait for a while and see if it shows up?

I don't understand the problems with wifi-keep-alive.There a apps in the playstore to force this. It worked well for me in Honeycomb.
Same with a thumb-keyboard.

The problem with that app from the market is that it keeps the device awake when you turn off the screen, and it eats through the battery.
On the Android phones I've used (Legend, Desire, Arc S), the WiFi remained connected, but the phone also went to sleep, battery drain was minimal.
This is the behaviour we were expecting to see in the ICS update, but unfortunately it hasn't been fixed...
Hey, i have a 3g tablet, because that i have to wait for upgrading.
But i have an important question for hifi guys: What is with the IR-Remote app...
Are there any changes to the App on Honeycomb?
I bought the tablet for controlling my homecinema an know i want to know if we get makros in the IR-Remote app?
pls check it and give a response to me
Hey guys,
I recently got pushed the OTA update for the Galaxy S3 on Sprint. I didn't notice anything different until I went to use my Andy-83 app. I'm sure some people are familiar with this app, the TI-83 emulator thing.
It's now blacked out and unusable. I even uninstalled and reinstalled and it's BLACKED OUT! Must have been the update doing this.
Curious to know is there a way around this, I miss using this app, as I am a student. Also, does anyone have other apps with the same issue?
Sidenote- I know rooting is ultimate solution, but I really dont have the time, expertise, and effort for that right now.
Thanks.
Yup, some apps might no be compatible with the latest android version (or your current updated version).
Sucks, but its like that, wait for an app update, try and contact the developer.
It looks new update was released:
Xperia 1 III (XQ-BC52)
The latest software and firmware versions for the Xperia 1 III (XQ-BC52) XperiCheck.com checks the Sony servers every 5 minutes to always display the latest information.

Anyone received it already and can share feedback? Knowing sony only copy paste of security patch from Google but who knows?
Stubborn sony still does not share release notes! <angry>
Got it yesterday, no issues, but I haven't noticed any obvious changes either.
On previous version, I've had a black notification bar stick to the top of game screen a few times, no reoccurrences of that so far, but am not convinced it's fixed yet.
Now generally available in UK - was only for carrier versions previously I understand. Only change I can detect is October security update. Shame Sony never do a change log
Has anyone else lost touch and navigation vibration since this update? I just got the update today and since then I'm not getting any vibration when interacting with the phone at all and can't get it re-activated

Looks like a restart fixed it!
Touch and navigation vibration is so buggy. One restart it works, another restart it doesn't work and another restar it works. I think it is time for Sony to fix this. Anyway that is my problem with touch and navigation vibration. After this software update it works but we will see if they fixed this..
Hi,
I noticed changes in the Clock application and when it's ringing, buttons looks like new Android 12 Design maybe...
Nothing else noticed as changed since yesterday (so not a long time...)

The clock app is updated through the play store by google, not by sony. I had the new design before this new sony update.
ok, sorry
The XQ-BC62 got this today and I can't find anything that changed except for a security update. It's a huge plus if Sony has automated security patches, but there's a lot of unfinished work on this phone that I'd like to see addressed. Start fixing carrier support!
Alot of ppl are saying heat fixed but mines still gets warm
The Photo Pro and Cinema Pro apps run cool now. The phone gets warm, but hot, if I run a video transcoder.
It seems to have a new bug with tap-to-wake.

Yea it better on chinese ROM for me. I removed all the badiu crap and it close to stock than ever.
Word of advice. Do not change anything in the default phone setting >>> *#*#4636#*#* this will cause the mobile network setting to fc and only way out or to fix is starting from scratch with new flasher.
