    Help google navigation turns phone off

    I use the navigation feature in Google Maps a lot while I'm driving at work. Lately it has started shutting the phone down for no apparent reason, after about a minute or two. I thought this was due to low battery, but it isn't because it's doing it with a full battery. Any suggestions?? Thanks

    Help Voice not working in Google Maps

    I regularly use Google Maps when walking around central London and found the turn-by-turn voice prompts really useful (and I'm not too bothered about the strange female voice!). However just recently the voice has disappeared altogether, though all the other functions work as normal. Any...

    Help Wi fi won't turn off on xperia x10

    My Xperia X10 has been suffering from poor battery life for a while, and I've got an inkling of what the problem may be. Every few minutes I get a circular "refresh" type symbol at the top right of the screen, which I am led to believe is the wi-fi searching for a network. I never use wi fi on...

    google maps not working properly.

    My Google Maps isn't working properly. I can only zoom in so far then the button is greyed out. Very little detail is shown (only major road names, not smaller streets etc). My wife has the identical phone (Xperia X10) and her maps works fine (like mine used to). Also we have both added each...

    Xperia X10 doesn't ring long enough

    My Xperia X10 only seems to ring for about 4-5 sec before it diverts to voicemail and shows a "missed call". Often this isn't long enough to get the damn thing out of my pocket. Is there a way of making it ring longer, giving me more of a chance to answer it? Thanks

    Help HTC IME home screen quick question

    I am using the HTC_IME homescreen app which I think is brilliant on the whole. However it comes with a useful three-way button at the bottom (dialler, menu and browser) which keeps disappearing for no obvious reason! I then can't find out how to restore it except for turning the phone off and on...

    Help Handcent SMS

    I've started using Handcent SMS for text messaging and think it's brilliant. However my Xperia also appears to be using "Messaging" so that when I get a text message I get TWO notification sounds, and even though I've received and read the message using Handcent, it still appears in the top bar...

    Following suggestions on this forum I've downloaded the HTC_IME keyboard. It looks great, except for one problem. It's TINY!!! On my X10 the keyboard appears at the bottom left of the screen with lots of empty space to the right of it. It's so tiny that I can't read the "shift" characters on...

    When I used to compose a text message I could tap the "To" field, start typing the first few letters of the recipient's name and the list of matches in my phone book would automatically appear. Now all that appears is exactly what I type with a few apparently random digits underneath. For...
