Critian, 02 Sep 2009Only 65k colors? Come on !Sorry man, but you can't put more colours on a Windows Mobile phone, you can check this if you don't believe me, eg the Satio has 16 Million colours. By the way, 65.000 colours is enough, you can't see the difference on a 256.000, or a 65.000 colours screen phone. See the X2 device, that is awesome! :)

XXX, 02 Sep 2009Hi All,
i have X1 can i upgrade it to 6.5
pls. your comment ASAP
Thanks
yes you can, but its quiet difficult if you arent a professional user. here is the link
http://xperia-x1.com/windows-mobile-65-rom-on-xperia-x1/
if you dont know how to do it search more at xda-developers.com and maybe you find something or wait maybe SE releases WM 6.5 with an update (hope it comes for free) ... or send your phone to a service and they will do it for you for about 10 euro :D

Since I can detect some lack of knowledge amongst the X1 users, I'll share how I got my X1 to be the #1 ranked phone on GSM Arena:
1. MUST visit http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=470
Read and learn how to tweak and flash ROM onto your phone, everything can be found here (not for lazy people unfortunately)
2. Install one of the latest developed ROMs from the above mentioned website.
3. Visit http://forum.ppcwarez.org/
Many many applications and games for you to try out, making your X1 so much more than just a phone!
Therefore, as I stated before, this phone ain't for the newbies and lazy people. But if you followed these 3 steps, I'm certain you will be loving that X1 like most of the owners here.

My first post just below sounded like i know it all when i read it back..This is far from the truth i am still amateur its just sometimes if you get mags every month and join forums and search you can get so much more from your mobile bit by bit month by month..I understand how so many fones are boring so spend your cash on what you want not whats top of the range and what everyone else is buying,,its your money afterall and as for design i quite like the aino..S/E is also supposed to be bringing out a w900i style device in 2009 now that was a good fone..

To emphasise this is using your own cans not the ones supplied with xperia x1..

Well they start off by searching and learning,,most peole will use google and search for stuff,,we all had to do it in the beggining no one is going to do it for you..I had the original spv on orange back in 2002 and still finding out new tricks and tips..
What i mean is some people just dont or ever use the windows o/s or other o/s to their full ability..These devices can do so much but most people just txt,speak and play music or take a foto and become bored in which most will not get any more out of a smartfone than a normal device..I am using touch pro as xperia had hard to see keypad,,small viewing area in landscape mode web browsing etc but its up to you to learn bit by bit or sit down and find out what you want your mobile to do then choose..YES these fones are a bit complex but persevere and you should be able to get it to what you want to do..

Hi All,
What is it that makes the XPERIA X1 always the top of the rankings list? There' been lots of new phones brought out since but its still #1. What makes it better than the new iPhone, HTC Hero, LG's......personnal I think that the new SE Satio is the one to wait for, what do you think......

A lot of people are concerned about X1's high rating. As a owner of this device, I can say honestly that:
1. Non-XDA fans or typical users, this phone definitely sucks, too complex, too slow.
2. One of the BEST phones once tweaked via XDA mods. I'm judging from the phone's overall performance, appearance and material once it is modded.

i was saying that i will be buying out my phone contract soon when the X2 gets a release date, to buy it. as much as i love this phone, the limited video recording abilities in the american model(X1a) irritates me slightly, but that is because of an American Patent that means the processor is different than that of the X1i

huh?
not once did i say i would prefer an iphone.
i sell at least one of these phones per week, and both myself and my partner own the X1.
i am not looking at paying out my contract for when the X2 arrives, while my partner is opting for the X3, but after spending some time selling mobile phones, i find Sony Ericssons take on the WM platform very refreshing.
I have now switched from the PointUI home 2.0 panel to the mobile SPB shell v3.0 panel
