It identifies your carrier label this way but there is definitely something in the market that takes an issue with the model.

I was unable to reinstall a few apps my girlfriend had on hers after flashing the x10i generic. I ended up sideloading them.

I can see that the market now identifies it as an x10i with the correct carrier label where it used to be listed correctly as an x10a. I think this will be corrected when the generic south american builds come out.

I actually confirmed this on a buddies too. Same issue. Try downloading uno from the market on an x10i, no dice. Try it on an x10a, no problem. I think this might also be the developer not listing the x10i as a supported device in their market account.

With root you can edit system/build.prop file to change identity back to X10a.

I haven't needed to do myself, but it can be done.

I´m using Wolfbreak V3.5

My phone has never been that fast. And, of course, with Arc Launcher it is very pretty as well. It´s amazing.
[XPERIA X10 General] stewie7669:
Hi..... I'm sorry but I am new and worried about bricking my phone.

How do you install the WolfBreak FW? I have the WolfBreak page, but it talks about booting into xRecovery. Don't you have to be rooted to do this?

I have already installed the "official" 2.33 upgrade (although not for my specific region - turned my x10a into an x10i).

I'm guessing that the Wolfbreak page is assuming you're starting from a rooted phone already?????

I would be very grateful if someone could post (or point me to a link) that shows every step needed to install WB from the "stock" 2.3.3.

Thank you very much!

Here's a PM I received some time before the update launched (more specifically on June 30th) regarding reasons for locked bootloader:

Sorry that I post this only now while all of this has already been said. I asked the guy if I can quote him here but he didn't answer and I respected that. Just now he answered me, so I'll just release this for all who didn't read why there's no unlocked bootloader ^^

Please don't flame again like "oooh, again a smartass with internal knowledge who can't say where the info comes from!!!111!", ok? I have no whatsoever reason to just claim this since all these infos can already be gathered around the web.

And please, I really don't want to raise your hopes again, I guess the real chances that SE will make the efforts to solve these "DRM problems because of licenses and agreements" for an almost 2 year old phone are very slim. Just posted it now because I finally got the permission to do so. ;)

ok so where is the list of all currently available 2.3.3 ftfs? it use to be on the front page of this thread but there was some bickering about whose work was whose... where can i find them?
[XPERIA X10 General] stan.s:
Lawyers are always involved in everything these days. When there was a clamor for IBM to opensource OS/2 so that the Workplace Shell could be ported to Linux, they said it was not possible because of licenses, and that some of the shops involved were either defunct or Microsoft. (MS charged IBM $50 royalties per copy for patents in OS/2, more than the same price they wholesaled Windows for at the time.) Did someone really pay them $15 for my android phone?

I have always appreciated the SE phone's (I've had several in the house since the w600) ability to be updated with new firmware for bugs and enhancements while SIM locked. Though I think that this GB one is sort of buggy compared to others. Why doesn't the camera go to portrait? etc.

did any one read this and any commed on that!!!

Sony Ericsson Brazil has said that the Xperia X10 will receive four-finger multitouch in the upcoming Android 2.3 Gingerbread update. This was refuted by Sony Ericsson’s Rikard Skoberg a few weeks back, but SE Brazil seem insistent that the display’s drivers will be updated to allow 4-point multitouch from the current dual touch display.

SE Brazil said on Facebook a week ago “here in Brazil the advice received was that the X10 will update multi touch 4 points (translated)”. There has been so much misinformation that we can’t be sure that this will be included, but hopefully there’s not too long to find out.

[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
I'm not a TripNFan but, his ROMs were very good. My favourite ROMs are from WolfBreak, TripNRaver and Jerpelea... Since Trip left XDA, our development decreased with 75%. Not much new releases to flash anymore, I mean with that... Since his GB MIUI is very stable, I'm loving it. It's very customizable... I really like that Sense lockscreen for it... Maybe the Mods will ever forgive him?

[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
I actually agree with you.

It has nothing to do with trip love.

And he only acted out at trolls.

And many things that were said to him was very nasty so trip got nasty back.

Why do ppl have to hate him? he was making good roms.

The attacks on him was also very much a due to certain butt hurt members.

Sure he freaked out when ppl took stuff from his roms.

But would you not be pissed if someone took a idea you had?

Even if it was open source it was still in his rom first and his idea to put it there.

All he asked for was people to ask permission first.

That is my 2 cents.
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:
He went into an unreleased thread and lost his mind, saying that it was stolen from him...

Rest things are working, just problem with the media.

[XPERIA X10 General] Sk0ly:
In the update, sony ericsson changed to a much more stock build than previously.

They reduced things like mediascape to a simple widget etc. on to of that they added features like facebook in xperia etc. in short, a lot of your old apps are no longer compatible. You should really wipe your phone.

To back things up as much as you can, your best option is to roll back to 2.1, root, install titanium backup and batch backup all apps and user data, NOT SYSTEM APPS.

If you don't want to root, you can do the following.

1. Ensure you are synced to gmail. This will backup all of your contacts and calendar entries.

2. Download backup sms from the market and mms if applicable to keep your message history.

3. Apn's are easily found through search so I wouldn't worry about that.

4. The market automatically restores your paid apps but make a list of your free ones for later. Best way to do this is the online market. Keep it open during the wipe on the my apps page then reinstall them from there by opening each app in a new tan and clicking install. You don't want the my apps page to refresh or they will be toast.

5. You can save some game progress for certain games with apps in the market. I know you can restore your angry birds progress.

6. Just to be save, make a backup of your sd.

Hope that helps. Just went through this because I didn't want the girlfriends phone rooted because she has no idea what she is doing and I would rather not have her brick it by accident lol.

how come I don't get any of the updated google apps? before I updated i was in stock 2.1 without any modifications and the google apps (like maps and the market) would update themselves regularly and now I have an older version of maps than what i had before I updated (for some reason i can't access maps from the market) and the market app hasn't updated to the new version yet... weird.
[XPERIA X10 General] henrg:
What I did to reinstall my apps was first register with AppBrain and then save my current app list as a '2.1 apps list'. Then after the upgrade I reinstalled AppBrain from the market and used the list to get the updated apps. I also used MyPhoneExplorer to backup most of my info to my PC before the flash and wipe. This can be done without needing to root your phone.
[XPERIA X10 General] Sk0ly:
Good idea. Hadn't thought of that. I will tell you that the smartest thing you can do is root though. Gives you so much more functionally. Basically, if you are tech saavy enough to be on this forum, you should be rooted.

Thanks for idea ! I would never have thought to do this way :)

But will wait for release and update with PCC or SEUS better. I have a lot of theoretical knowledge of flashing phones and PDAs, but I have never done it on my phone... yet :D Even if I am linux geek.... ;)

So hope that GGL version will bring something better, I expect that I will tweak it a lot - need 160 MB of free ram as on my currently 2.1 FW :)

If you are running an x10a you won't find the generic gingerbread because it isn't out yet. You can, however, use flashtool to flash the x10i rom which I believe is linked to on the first posting of this thread.

The only problem is there will be some apps from the market you will have to sideload because they are not available to the x10I

Make sure you do a complete wipe when you do it with flashtool

It would appear that a America's US x10a version is available via a download (link in the "roll out" thread pg 88 or 89). The post indicates that it's 1233-8200. The 2.1 that I flashed on my phone is cust version 1234-4820. Would I run into any probs if I flash with the other cust version? (I beleive that I know the answer, but I want to check to be sure).
[XPERIA X10 General] HeliumX10:
I think that you wouldnt, but maybe would. Did you changed your CDA?
[XPERIA X10 General] dbgeek:
I went ahead and flashed it anyway, under the belief that you can't brick an x10 as long as you have fw that you can flash it with (unless you physically damage the device).

Works beautifully. I can't confirm root, because my device wasn't rooted before I flashed it.

Youre true, 2.1 was also laggy for me. But as it were written many times before - you should disable animations and effects and etc. And after few days it will become smooth and stable.

Has been told many many times, taht after update u will lose all your data and u have to use third party backup software, because original Backup and Restore is not provided with this update.

It's your choice if you also do or not.

No, sorry. That's the last I heard from him about SE opening up the bootloader.

But Z seems to have newer info, although I don't think he was talking about official news ;) He hinted that we'll soon see news about the bootloader. Unfortunately nothing happened by now, so we'll have to wait and see. I think we should rather hope for an open bootloader from Z and all our devs than from SE.
[XPERIA X10 General] Neo.:
Thanks for the info. I guess 'z' was referring to the bootloader but nothing happened now. (z clearly stated that he is not working on it and some other dev did it) and maxfron said it's laser on the other thread.

Not sure if we get it for free. If we do, the_laser is going to get a LOT of customers with his goodwill.

Hopefully we'll have 'true' freeXperia someday :(
