[XPERIA X10 General] sagacious1:
great, because i just tried it and it still isnt doing the trick. it shows "x10a" in about phone and i flashed the new market (which looks the same as the one i had) but im still not seeing every app. my test is to search for "HBO GO" app, even though i dont need it but i know its a north american app. so i'll try your suggestion above. just to be a stickler... i am replacing those two lines with the ones i already have not just adding them correct?

also, will my phone say "passion" under about phone after doing this? any other possible conflicts with other programs?
[XPERIA X10 General] AyDee:
I have compared the build.props of an x10i and x10a rom and found these differences:

##### Values from product package metadata #####
ro.product.model=X10i
ro.semc.ms_type_id=AAD-3880056-BV
ro.semc.version.fs=WORLD-1-4-8

##### Values from product package metadata #####
ro.product.model=X10a
ro.semc.ms_type_id=AAD-3880074-AV
ro.semc.version.fs=WORLD-1-2-5-6

Could they be related to or controlling those frequencies?

*Edit- @sagacious: I am using the passion...etc line and I can confirm seeing HBO GO and I am on US Att. It still will show x10a or whatever you have already. Cheers.
[XPERIA X10 General] moacyrfilho:
Firmware doesn't restrict operating frequencies. Hardware does. These values in build.prop are reference data only.
[XPERIA X10 General] :
I actually changed every line that said x10i to a and also changes every line that had the new fw numbers to the 2.1 Brazilian fw numbers then did factory reset and I still couldn't download the G4 app. Its because they haven't made it compatible with 2.3.3...I started a thread over in themes and apps asking for someone with 2.1 to get the app and somehow upload the apk but so far no responses... :(
[XPERIA X10 General] stan.s:
Yes. Get a market enabler app, from the market. I was using one from for2w had every major carrier and loaded on boot for free.
[XPERIA X10 General] hasei:
I confirmed that with my X10a GB unedited build.prop, HBO GO still doesn't show. But it did appear on my other X10, with ThGo 2.3 ROM with a build.prop that says "SO-01C" as a model number. SO-01C is Japan's NTT Docomo's own model number for Arc.

I still don't know why but HBO Go doesn't like X10i and X10a.

BTW the Market Enabler enables you to appear that you are on other carrier, but that is about all it can do. HBO Go app isn't showing because of the carrier you are on, it is something else. Market Enabler is useless in this case.

This is going way OT. I will stop here.

You can edit your own build.prop and get it from SEUS, or download the AM-US pack for FlashTool.

[XPERIA X10 General] albiore:
I have a question... my phone is a X10a_1234-4820... however, I dont't find the default.prop... I just see build.prop under /System ... are default.prop and build.prop the same?

Yes of course, just try change in your build.prop, sorry about that, build.prop is the correct file.

Remeber to, build.prop is in /system
[XPERIA X10 General] albiore:
Thanks! I already edited build.prop rebooted and now it shows 1233-8200!

build.prop is located in /system

default.prop is located in the root (/) but it doesn't have the lines you are supposed to change... so I suppose that is a difference between an X10i and X10a... I did not bring my usb cable but as soon as I come back home I'll try to upgrade the phone and I'll let you know. If it works, this method, is by far, the easiest and most secure way to upgrade the phone.
[XPERIA X10 General] frcko:
OK boss, this is my default.prop ... can you tell me pls where to insert those lines and let me know if I need to take something out as well

thx

1.- You need to be root in your phone, use flashtool 0.2.9.1 for that.

2.- You need install rootexplorer

3.- With rootexplorer you need put write permissions to /system folder.

4.- After that you can open build.prop in text editor (it comes with root explorer) and you can put next lines like this:

ro.semc.version.cust=1233-8200

ro.product.name=X10a_1233-8200

After that you need restart once your phone, and companion or SEUS will be able to update your phone. (no need flash aything, only update with SEUS or Companion)

This method is for get the x10a firmware directly from SEUS or Companion, if you want you can flash the rom with flashtool (in page 89 is the link for te x10a firmware) or get another custom rom from xda.

Are you sure? I thought in the last global generic 2.1.A.0.435 update X10i had baseband 55 and X10a had baseband 54.

Yep 2.1.55 came with Rogers build 2.1.1.A.0.6.

Basebands only change on different build versions.

The past global releases 2.0.A.0.504, 2.1.A.0.435, and the lastest 3.0.1.G.0.75 all has the same baseband no matter what region they are released to.

Anyone able to install the new market?

there could be a list of what the X10 won with 2.3.3
[XPERIA X10 General] stan.s:
The new market and updated Google apps such as maps, gmail will all appear shortly after registering your google acct again.

Auto flash? No. We lost auto rotation in the stock camera app as well. Vignette still has its pseudo flash and rotation.

Why update? I think it is much faster than 2.1 so much so that I've put a cpu controller on. SE made the build very fast with no lag but penalised the battery life a bit; the cpu app gives me back the penalty with a touch of 'slow to wake. '

I like that the bottom row of apps or folders follows each home page.

I have not tried tether yet. But now I need 2 less apps.

I like the move to SD function. Angry Birds can live on my 32gb sd card rather than taking up 45mb of my ram.

Highly improved Voice Commands in Google Voice Search.

I love the enhanced cursors and text selection is a vast improvement.

I like that google maps lets you turn the phone any way you want, so I can have it in my car mount and not have the power cord behind the phone straining the usb connection.

There are just a whole bunch of improvements to 2.3.3.

Hey, so no more auto rotate on the stock camera app? But we can manually rotate the pictures then? Or is it that we can only take landscape or portrait pictures from the stock camera?

What is the battery life like?
[XPERIA X10 General] stan.s:
yes, you can manually rotate, but I should take a look in the exif and see if it recorded what position the camera was in.... and it reveals that it does record the proper/correct orientation of the photo.

You can turn the camera any way you want, just the display icon's are not reorienting as in the past.

I can't say, since I run a CPU Master program to change the algo.... I think it's okay, but I plug in personally by habit whenever I can.
