Not sure, I think there is a general problem with ICS with Exchange ActiveSync setting not sticking, there currently doesn't seem to have a solution right now except going with 3rd party app.
Get a new boss. :b
I use Exchange and don't have that issue. However, why not just set peak and off peak to PUSH? Is it that big of deal?

I have been fighting this also. From what I have read, it is common to ICS on all builds for our phones. My only solution short term was to use "Enhanced Mail" from the Market (oops - Play Store). It is not free, but it works pretty well and the developer is promising an update to look more like ICS style in the next couple weeks. I would hope they fix the stock one soon, but you're stuck with few options for now.
ah crazyness! alright, I appreciate everyone's input

Have you tried a different ROM? I'm using WC's ICS ROM and have no exchange issues at all.

Probably not going to help as it seems to be an ICS issue. I'm currently running WC's rom and it also has the issue of settings not sticking with Exchange, WC has mentioned this as well. It won't stick for me on both the Vivid and Generic build. More searching in the forum showed that it also is a problem with Sensation's ICS build.
The problem is not that Exchange won't work, it is that the settings (update frequency, days of mail, email size, etc.) won't stick and falls back to the default 15min 5kb 3days setting after reboot, this renders push unusable.
Right now the only solutions are either to use another 3rd party app for push, or wait until it is fixed by google/HTC.
wow, same here. I keep trying to change mine to "manual" for both on and off peak, however, it reverts back to default. I don't want my exchange mail syncing when I don't want it to.
I'm running the OTA ICS, unlocked bootloader and rooted.
Was this problem with the exchange settings not sticking fixed in the .56 version that came out a week ago?
any updates/fix for this issue?

Hi!
I have the Beatiful Widgets one that looks like HTC and I like it but the Location is stuck at my zip code Spanish Fork no matter where I go.
I work on a different city for 8 hours a day and it never changes, meanwhile, fancy Widgets changes very quickly.
Any ideas?

From your home screen press menu then settings/privacy and turn on "Use My Location" See if that helps..
The lowest tine interval you can use is 2 hours. So it will only check every 2 hours.

The shortest time interval is 15 minutes. It defaults to 2 hours. I changed mine to 15 minutes and it works fine if you make sure it is set to Use My Location.
Mine is not updating the location since the last update. Doesn't matter what I set it to.
Edit: It does update sometimes but it appears to be pretty random and definitely not on the set schedule.

Anyone else having these problems with their Thrills? About to go back to the iPhone even though i really don't want to
I have occasional reboots, but not often. I know mine is more tinkering with my kernel.
i only had mine reboot once only cuz i killed gta3 the rong way and it crashed
yeah mine does it any time that it has to think about something... i go to post something on facebook and about half the time it freezes and then reboots. I think i've pulled the battery out a couple dozen times this last week because of it just stopping on me

True multitasking has been built into Android (similar to Linux, which it is based) from day one. Here to say it, but that would be a longshot. Best bet would be to become more scrupulous on what apps you download and more critical of the makers when their programs go rogue. Plus turning background data off in settings can help. Fyi.
Note: I don't want you to feel as if I'm being overly critical or a douche here, just realistic with what we have and what we are dealing with.

I hear ya, I know its wishful thinking. I just wish android was as efficient as iOS. Android having Backgrounding from the start was a big perk, but I gotta hand to apple for seeing how inefficient it was and hold off until they found a better solution. Android needs to grab the bull by the horns and convert to that solution.

Background data allows you to receive emails and your apps to update periodically while your not using your phone. This is the basis of 99% of your notifications. It's kinda the point of having a smart phone in the first place.

The phone does tend to heat up quite a bit, especially when running CPU intensive tasks.
You should use a task manager to monitor what apps are running, and terminate anything unnecessary.
Thanks - I'll try to do that.

Did you check to be sure the kernel you're using matches your ROM?
When you say 'data connection,' I'm guessing you mean mobile data connection and not wi-fi. If it is wi-fi with the problem, try re-copying the wi-fi module for your kernel over to /system/lib/modules
Yes - I do meant the 'mobile data'. When I used a custom rom, then I got the data just fine. However when I used the ATT based rom - It doesn't appear to get any connection. I don't know why, and if I would know how to set or change the custom APN would be helpful.

Edit: Yes I always flash the kernel before install new ROM from the same dev.
I have also realized that it does get hot, and with the new holliraider 1.7 i realized that the battery dies faster.
I've had my Vivid for about three weeks now, and it runs ice cold. It's stock, with the addition of about twelve new apps, that's it.
Hello all,
I'm experiencing this issue since I got my phone, I've experienced it on all roms including stock everything, google edition rom and android revolution HD.
The problem goes like this... I'm using an app, all of a sudden it freezes, I can't perform any tasks on it. I try to force close it and reload it but it becomes frozen. I put my screen to sleep and the device never wakes, only the capacitive buttons do. Then the phone forces a reboot after about 30 seconds.
Sometimes, I try to wake up my phone and it never wakes, it seems apps or something within the android system is frozen.
I have gone through firmware, factory resets, roms and kernels I don't know of what else to do.
Anyone else experiencing this?
I'm on Developers Edition 64gb
By the way the frequency of this happening is about twice a week.

For some reason, when I try to edit my contacts in the stock Contacts app, I get that stupid "Unfortunately, Contacts has stopped" message. Does anyone know why this is happening, and perhaps how to fix it? I tried deleting the data & cache and force stopping it, but nothing works. I did end up getting a more stable contacts app called Contacts +, but I'd still like to get this resolved anyway.
Thanks.
I can edit contacts within stock app. Not sure why its force closing on you.

I C. That's cool.
I may just use Xperia Companion to reinstall the software then.
But will using Xperia Companion to "repair" the phone's software mean it installs the INTERNATIONAL firmware, or the US? lol If I get the US firmware then I'd have to get the software to reinstall the fingerprint software too b/c we both know Sony Mobile idiotically decided not to give the US version that.
It will install whatever you currently have on the device.

Yeah....... it could be any of those. It was suggested to me to just wait and Sony may very likely send an update to fix it. I'm using Contacts + for now and it's been working just fine.

I also notice Google Messenger, which always worked before on my Z3 and S7, doesn't work so well for MMS messages on the XP. In group texts, the recipients I send to would get my group response AND the same response would be sent to each one individually. But I went back to using Textra which is also great and now at least that issue's been resolved.

Yeah but for me, it's not just about the speed. I love having the IP65/68 rating as I sometimes have to take calls while in the shower (I leave phone near bathroom door, not in shower lol). I'll step out and take them with wet hands and face......so for me, the XP is a must since the X doesn't have that feature. Being slightly faster is not a big deal, you're right there........but I'd still prefer it.

MGS,
Yeah the 2nd time around (maybe 1st too?), which was when I used XC, I made sure to choose the option to set up as a new phone too. I didn't really have any backups to restore anyway, so this was the only option. Yet when I went to the Contacts app it still wouldn't let me edit random contacts, though everything else worked fine with it. So not sure but since everything else is fine with phone, I'm just gonna let it go since I now use Contacts + anyway and it's much more stable.
I have been having the same issues. I have tried factory resetting it different ways. The sony bridge repair tool does not even list the Xperia X Performance on its list of phones yet. So, that's a bummer. There's this site that gives you 4 ways to do a hard reset. However, on the 4th method where you are asked to download Sony's flash tool, the X Performance isn't even listed on the supported devices.
I do wish that Sony sends a fix immediately.
mac,
I returned the phone (which had other issues too) to my Amazon seller (NGP) and the replacement they sent me this morning came ALREADY set up. Normally I would be mad about that, but the Contacts app WORKED! Didn't close out when I tried to edit it. I wanted to make sure it was fixed though, so I did a factory reset, and ughh........ it's not working now again. I e-mailed NGP and asked them to tell me what they did. I hope they can tell me so I can do it too and fix this. I will keep this thread posted.
You're right, it's very annoying! MGS told me he factory resetted but didn't use backup during setup or even log in with Google account, and it worked for him. But when I tried that........nope! Even tried creating a new account, and nope! Very weird, but again I hope NGP can tell me what they did.
Mine seem to work alright, I can edit the phone number and or contact details.
