Just for people who google information, and have the same question.

I finally got everything to work properly, for some reason autostart.sh was missing in data/opt, so I created opt folder in /data/ folder using root explorer, and moved autostart.sh to that folder, installed sdk tools and typed lines in the command prompt.

also I changed the old number to my number dialing: "##program" as you would dial someone elses phone in the dialer. password: 000000

Conclusion: There is no need to reflash cell phone in that case! cricket sales man tried to screw me over by $80, or had no idea what he was talking about.

I was having trouble getting my Vanilla MasterCard Prepaid to work with zune to buy apps for my WP7. I didn't want to use a real credit card because my son would likely run up a large bill. After a bit of work and searching, I got it to work. Here is how.

1) Buy Vanilla MasterCard (costs $4 activation fee + the value of the card);

2) Wait a bit (1h?) for the card to be activated;

3) Go to vanillamastercard.com and enter the needed info for your card;

4) Select Activate Card from the menu on the left;

5) Enter your postal code (or zip code or whatever);

6) Wait a bit (1h?) for the activation to get registered;

7) Add the card to your zune account. Enter your real info (or not), just make sure that the postal code is the same.

That should do it. Presumably the process would be similar for other prepaid credit cards as well, but this is the only one I can vouch for.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Saux64:
Do you know if that card works for buying apps too?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Titus_Andronicus:
Yes. That is actualy what I have used it for. I did the App buying from the Zune on my PC. After the purchase, I just went to my phone and selected "buy" for the app. The market place then said "you have already purchased this app, do you want to re-download it" I said yes, and it then installed the full version.

Then I took the card out and put it in a Droid X and I found that all of the songs are easily recognized with Album and Artist names. So it seems that the problem is with the galaxy s2.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famora911:
Hi guys... i'm sorry if my question is not condescend. I' new one in this forum. might be this post is my big problem for me.

I used X10 since december 2010, but i have terrible problem, my phone often get restart when i used to play game like angry birds rio, NFS, worm, or the sims 3 (additional info, all game is not legal :( ).

sometimes when i use my phone to browsing, its restart again. But if i'm not use the phone (sms and sometimes make a call), its normal,the phone never get restart. i already try to turn on the mp3 music till 17 song using mediascape, its normal (my ppone didn't get warm/hot). only if i use playing game, it get a few lag then hang and then restart.

I already try to flashing my phone with latest update from SE using SEUS, reformat SD card,but the problem still appear.

I have try searching the same problems with me on internet, and i got information that caused by mainboard failure. I'm very confused, because they said their phone got overheat and then restart it self. and they also said they smell burn on back case, at the battery connector.

this few of my phone data:

firmware ver: 2.1-update1

bseband ver: 2.1.54

kernel version: 2.6.29

my question is:

1. how much degrees the normally battery, and how much degrees we can say that battery is overheat?

2. are some of you know what batch number or date produced the mainboard is failure?

3. I still doubt that my phone is one of failure manboard batch. there is another alternativ solution to resolve my problem? because is a bit lazy to bring my phone to SE service center. I dont have spare phone if my x10 phone in SESC :(

4. is that true the latest SE update have a lotlag and make the phone restart?

5. this only my opinion, my phone OS first is verion 1.6, and its upgraded to 2.1 by SE. some people said it must deleted user data with xrecovery. anybody cantell me how to deleted that with xrecovery?

6. i still believe there is somehting wrong with my OS phone. i wanna to try custom rom. what the best custom rom? but my phone still warranty, can you give the save tutorial for use custom rom?

I'm really appreciate with your help and response my answer and I appologize for my bad language :(

thanks a lot and regards fadhli, Indonesia.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rogem_kk:
1. 30-40 degrees would be in the normal range while in use.

2. No clue

3. Lately I had random reboots as well but installing this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=945264 ROM totally cured it (even the buggy Angry Birds Rio is stable now). A lot of games cause many brands of phones to reboot. Just read the comments in the market. Maybe it is not the phone's fault? However, I am convinced that my X10 is a little sensitive to temperature buildup under heavy loads (games, 3D graphics).

4. From what I see, it is different for each user so certain software combinations work better for some than others

5. This would only be the case if you were installing non SE ROM but it is a good idea to wipe any old data before upgrading/changing ROMs. xRecovery has tools built in to wide the data. It is as easy and point and click.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dzumagos:
ril is not required at all.

if everything works OK, no need to flash RIL, do it only when you have some issues.

another thing - RIL is stored in ROM part, so if you change ROM, RIL is gone and you must reflash it if you want it.

3. Put phone in fastboot mode and plug in to computer USB and open command prompt.

3. "fastboot oem unlock"

4. "fastboot flash recovery c:\android-sdk\tools\recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.4-crespo.img"

5. go into recovery

6. mount USB storage using ClockworkMod

7. copy SuperUser flashable zip to phone.

Best way to keep apps+data before first unlock+root?

First, thanks to everyone helping to give very clear instructions for unlocking bootloader + rooting. Just one small topic that nobody is touching...

I have a fully stock and locked 2.3.4. I want to root my phone BUT I would like to know if there are any suggestions on how to keep, restore, or simply just not lose so much of the data currently on my phone. I have thought of a backup, but that seems to be impossible without rooting, but rooting seems to wipe the data I wish to backup...

Do you just have to bite the bullet the first time you unlock+root and just deal with getting your phone wiped? Or is there a better way that includes some sort of backup and restore?

Thanks :)

Bump!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubbamade:
There are is a way to root the phone without unlocking the bootloader, but if something happens later on...you will probably have to unlock the bootloader to fix it. I have only read of this option and have never actually seen how or done it myself.

So, the best option is to just use FASTBOOT like the others have suggested and unlock the bootloader first. It WILL wipe when you do it, but you only have to do this once! If you would like to back up your phone first you are kinda out of luck. Though, anything important you need can be backed up on your computer first. As far as apps and such...I never really saw losing them as a big problem. It gives you something to do for the next 20 mintues after install. LOL... All your purchased ones will still be paid for you will just need to download and set them up again.

If you get to the point of flashing a ROM after installing fastboot. I still think the best way is to just download one of the Nandroids available in the DEV section. Then once into recovery, just RESTORE the Nandroid. I used the Nandroid(rooted)2.3.4 in that section. It rooted it for me and saved a few steps after flashing RECOVERY on your phone.

So yes, you might as well go ahead with unlocking the Bootloader and wiping your phone. This will only need to be done once, and you will be good to go.

I think its the same thing as debranding the phone. Its a sticky at the top.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1Learning:
Unlock and debranding are 2 different things.

Debranding is on the stickies - involves installing the custom or SE ROMs. So let's say you have a Rogers or AT&T phone, instead of using their firmware, you install the Global Generic firmware instead or one of the custom ROMs. After install, your phone is now debranded and is no longer a Rogers or AT&T phone (from the firmware).

Unlocking the phone is carrier related. That is where your phone can only use SIM cards from a specific carrier. You will need to get an unlock code from the carrier or some 3rd party.

Debranding a locked phone won't unlock the phone. Unless the devs have done something new...

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bwyan Benton:
Nope....never seen it yet.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1Learning:
Unfortunately not, at the very least you'll have to call AT&T (or email them). If I remember correctly, by law, the US carriers are not allowed to deny you your request to unlock your phone provided you have met certain criteria, e.g. your bill is paid up to date, you had the phone for like 3 months or something, etc. But they can limit the number of unlock codes they provide within a certain period to prevent mass resellers of their retail phones, i.e. they don't want you buying 30 phones from them to sell it on e-bay unlocked. But as long as you meet those criteria, the unlock code is free.

So if you met the criteria, they should do it for you without too much hassle. They might give you some spiel of how they are not liable for any damage or whatever you do if you unlock your phone and put another carrier's SIM card in there but hey, in the end you'll have an unlocked phone...
