since I'm so worried about it, LiveView is one of the many reasons I bought the Active, I brought it to the service center the next day to be checked. Even when it was charged, it could not be turned on. The light is still red. Since it was barely 2 days old from purchase, they told me to return it to the store where I bought it to have it replaced. So I went to store where I bought it and they replaced it with a new one. Surprisingly, one of the sales staff was able to turn it(the defective unit) on but it only showed the Sony Ericsson logo (just up to there). They said it hanged. And it could not be turned off again.
I really like the idea of LiveView. But I really found it hard to go around it. It took awhile before it registers what I wanted it to do. Hope Sony will improve this. It's irritating sometimes. :)

jean, 19 Apr 2012thank you Geetesh... I will keep those in mind.. actually, ... moreYou must charge your liveview for 6 hours at least, then you have to download the live view app form gplay, after that you must sync live view with active and that's all. :)

I own Xperia Active and I like the looks, dimensions and performance...display is stunning and I like automatic light sensor which reduces screen lightness. Display is so easy to do things and it is not even to small for typing (i do it while is landscape position). Only thing that i do not like is back cover which when I use with strip around the hand sometimes in the left down corner creaks a bit. Do anyone have same problem? I have orange one with black cover.

now, I have a problem. The unit came with a LiveView, also one of the reasons I bought the Active.. When I bought it, I was told to charge it first so it was not demoed to me. I don't have the time also to stay long at the mall. When I got home, I charged it for about 2 hours until the light turned green. I have read in the manual 2 hours would be the approximate time for charging it. I followed the instructions in the manual on the pairing it with my Xperia Active. I got it paired. But when I was about to install, I was not able to proceed since I don't have internet connection in my phone. I decided to continue it the next day. I turned off the LiveView. The next day I went to the mall to make a connection between them. I turned on the LiveView. It turned on. It showed the Sony Ericsson logo but it is just up to there. The screen is just showing the SE logo. So I asked help from a SE store. They told me that it needs to be charged. I have used it for less than an hour last night and maybe another 4 hours when I tried to make the connection. When I got home, I charged it again. The light is red until now. It's nearly 4 hours and it's still red. What happened to it? I'm worried..
I even bought a router today so I can enjoy exploring the active even when I'm home.
Thank you to anyone who can help me regarding this.

Yeah tht could be the reason for fail... more@Mouli: extra battery will give you a boost of extra 3-4 hrs not more than that....actual problem is android is heavy battery consuming os...my neighbour owns galaxy s2 with 1800 mah battery and my cousin owns xperia neo v, even they have to charge phone twice a day with moderate internet use....if you need to use phone for full day with single charge you need atleast 2000 mah battery....sometimes i able use active for whole day with single charge by reducing the brightness and switching off internet whenever not required

Battery life.... you may need to charge twice a day... as outdoor phone it should have long lasting battery.....in my opinion only reason phone has failed is no marketing from sony ericsson...they didnt even had one single tv advt....most of people even dont know about the phone....
