Sorry for dropping by late, I see that we have something released for the Americas, is it available for download guys?
[XPERIA X10 General] Candy[MAN]:
Yup. Page 89
[XPERIA X10 General] william0410:
so is there any advantage if i flash the x10a version on my x10a or is it all the same after i flash a rom?
[XPERIA X10 General] stan.s:
Flashing the Americas versions removes any issues with the market or apps that may be restricted to the US or Canada. Though there is a Rogers and an Americas generic. But you'll have to do that downgrade/upgrade thing to root it.
[XPERIA X10 General] william0410:
so nothing performance-wise?
[XPERIA X10 General] WJohn:
Can anybody tell me if update for my phone is available.. I m sick of this waiting.

Phone software version:

1243-4430_2.1.1.A.0.6

ROGERS - user

File system version:

ROGERS-1-2-5-6_2.1.1.A.0.6

S1 boot version:

1226-2253 R8A013
[XPERIA X10 General] stan.s:
There is no performance difference between the official 2.3.3 updates. They're all pretty speedy. Speedy enough to have cpu governors as a big topic of discussion. If you don't find that's true after a day or two, flash just the bb again.

If you have issues with Google, SE and FB co-oping your data; Wb's new version 4, has alot of that cut out as well as having the tweaks to make it even more responsive though at the expense of some of the visual effects that makes the 2.3.3 update appealing esthetically.

TEAM's exjet is a beautiful fully transparent version. Others have different themes and reworked interfaces. Trip's IRIS is iphone like and eliminates active widgets and the app drawer while having a great library of themes available online via the theme manager.
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
Does anyone know if changing build.prop to X10a solves the market apps problem?

That would save a lot of work/time
[XPERIA X10 General] 1Learning:
So which version is the X10a AM-US GENERIC 1233-8200 one? Is that the Americas generic or Rogers generic? Sorry, it seems like it is obvious (Americas) but I want to double check just in case I read the code wrong. Never knew there was an Americas generic- have been using the GEL 4820 build this whole time.

Don't forget that it's NOT ROOTED and you'll have to do the Downgrade/Upgrade thing to do so, but that's easy.

And yes, you could use a market enabler to get around the US or Can or Whatever market issues, but that's one more app that has to run at boot. The free one from FOr2W works perfectly https://market.android.com/details?id=com.notenking.mf

I gave up and tossed the x10a NA generic ROM on. Had to manually enter my APN info for Fido but it's been great so far. 78% left and 1 day not charged so far. A handful of txts, FB syncs/updates, and a phone call only so far. Definately an improvement for me.
[XPERIA X10 General] AyDee:

This works. I am on At&t using Wolfbreak's rom(x10i fw) and this line is included & I've never had market issues. I went ahead and changed all the x10i's to x10a's and the CDA to 1233-8200 wherever it was (other than the fingerprint line)and a few other things and now I may as well have x10a generic firmware. They're identical as far as I can tell and everyone Ive asked pretty much says the same.

Mine looks like this. Note that this is not the very beginning or end of build.prop if you copy/paste ;)

[XPERIA X10 General] fdlm82:
try to repair it with SEUS o pc companion. Also you can reflash it.

i also have experimented odd issues with some flashed that i made.... i just reflash the same fw over the old one and my problems got away.
[XPERIA X10 General] stan.s:
make sure that the bt device has the right options checked by long press on the device name in the BT Settings page.... I have to press the call/open mike button on mine to get into the talk mode.

secondly, some kits don't seem to have the google voice search, there should be a voice search icon. Voice Dial is not needed, Voice Search does it all.

You may also need to go into the Voice Input and Output settings from the main settings menu.

if all that doesn't work, just reflash the bb from Wolfbreak's or the flashtool. Just the baseband .71.... you won't lose your apps/data.

1234-4820 no luck

ok i found this bad news at sony ericcson fb page, somebody is asking for the 1234-4820 update to 2.3 and the response is:

"Sony Ericsson

The 2.3.3 update for Xperia X10 is not only for generic units. We do however only guarantee that the generic ones will get it. Some operator branded ones will get it but we have no information on which these may be or when they will get it.

I have checked your SI number and you will not be able to update to 2.3 by the looks of it.

It's listed as "X10a GEL" and not as generic so it do have some kind of customization.

f******ck SE!!!!:mad::mad::mad::mad:

i already flashed X10i version of the sw but it feels like a beta or RC in my X10a phone, i was waiting to the release of my specific kit to update but i think i will flash the american version. i have read that the "a" version doesnt have audio lag :)
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
I believe that they have dropped global generic X10a 1234 - 4820, and have since added America Generic 1234 - 8200.

Sucks for those who don't know how to use flash tool or edit build.prop method.
[XPERIA X10 General] arkedk:
Sounds more like he don't know that Customized is the non-branded Sony Ericsson firmwares.

All X10i Generic kits is "Customized":

Customized-AU

Customized-ARO

Customized-IN

Customized-IT

Customized-NCB

and so on.

So don't see why Customized-GEL should be left out.
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
Because they added American Generic 1234 - 8200 in place of Global Generic 1234 - 4820.

Global Generic. 4820.0

American Generic. 8200

If you really think about it, global generic X10a does not not make sense. The "A" stands for Americas, which by definition cannot be Global. Global Generic X10a is a contradiction in terms...
[XPERIA X10 General] arkedk:
They are not gonna take away any of their kit numbers. That would mean they dropped the support on a large chunk of people who happen to have that SI.

The difference is the regions.

They are both Unbranded softwares but for different regions.

CUST-GEL is for a Generic Latin (South America) while America-US (North America) is self explanatory.
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
I agree with you, however I am just pointing out what has happened. Global Generic 1234 - 4820 seems to have been abandoned, and American Generic 1234 - 8200 seems to have been added. SI 8200 didn't exist before last week, unless I am mistaken.
[XPERIA X10 General] arkedk:
It's not been added last week. I think it's always been there, but the list where I got my info from long long ago didn't include all the regions.

Voice Search is an Americas only app. I have it saved on TB, so I don't have to worry about it. Otherwise you can download it from the bottom of the OP of this link...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1012380
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
I can confirm it did not exist before last week...

It may have existed as a number, which American Generic should have, UNTIL AT&T delayed America 2.1 update.

Again, based on historical information...Global Generic 1234 - 4820 only became available because AT&T refused to update.
[XPERIA X10 General] arkedk:
AT&T has nothing to do with those numbers. AT&T is a carrier with it's own SI and CDF and can release, stop development, or update software to their own devices (SI/CDF).

America-US on the other hand is a generic unbranded firmware which Sony Ericsson serves support and updates for. These devices is most likely sold without a subscription plan attached to it.

So it's pretty obvious that the company that makes the device will atleast support it's own SI numbered devices.

So those two has nothing to do with each other.

X10a ATT-US 1237-3761 runs their own software update policy.

X10a CUSTOMIZED-GEL 1234-4820 updated via Sony Ericsson.

X10a GENERIC-AMERICA-US 1233-8200 updated via Sony Ericsson.

So don't mix in AT&T with Sony Ericsson's own update policy, those are two very different companies with separate support and update policies.
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
You are missing my point. Unless you can confirm future release of global generic X10a 1234 - 4820, they have OBVIOUSLY moved from global generic to American Generic 1234 - 8200.

And don't underestimate the power of AT&T in the Americas
[XPERIA X10 General] arkedk:
As CUSTMIZED-GEL is a generic regional Sony Ericsson device, I'm sure it will be released.

And I don't underestimate them, I'm just telling you they have each their own support and update policies.
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
Read above from SE. 1234 - 4820 will NOT get the update.

Also, I was around during the 2.1 update. SE created SI number 1234 - 4820 X10a global generic after the fact......
[XPERIA X10 General] arkedk:
Haven't read that anywhere?

Again the kit is a regional generic unbranded Sony Ericsson kit, so it will be released at some point in time.
[XPERIA X10 General] tjchad:
So... Is there a rooted version of X10a GENERIC-AMERICA-US 1233-8200?

I have the ftf saved but haven't flashed my phone yet. My phone was on 1234-4820_R53 until I did the X10i ftf.
[XPERIA X10 General] arkedk:
Look in the Development section, there is the root method.
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
So far the build number and baseband has not changed between ANY region... meaning they are all the SAME.
[XPERIA X10 General] tjchad:
Thanks arkedk. Guess if I'd searched a little more... Sorry guys. ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] stan.s:
Fwiw there is mention here on XDA of 8200 back in November 2010. However there hasn't been a firmware posted on any sites until recently. IMHO, att and Rogers exclusive contracts are over. I saw one person post somewhere that he always has a generic Americans since 2.1.

Maybe is a mistake from the guy that make the post:eek:

I installed the X10i ARO firmware but the phone feels like beta... i don't know why but i reflashed several times to discard any errors or whatever with no results. Audio lags, contacs lags, launcher lags. like a beta.:(

Now i instaled the american firmware 1233-8200 on my latin american phone and works like a charm... smooth, faster, no audio lags, no launcher lags, no contacs (phone directory) lags, yeah sometimes over 30 secs to load the contacts :confused:

1- I flashed the 1233-8200 with flashtool

2- boot in the os

3- to discard anything i repair it with SEUS (this just reflash the phone)

4- enjoy no lags and smooth phone

[XPERIA X10 General] arkedk:
Again, on the facebook site Markus never says that it won't be released. He only states what Sony Ericsson has said "That Generic kits will get the 2.3 update" and that that the current 2.3.3 update hasn't reached that particular kit (1234-4820).

And it sounds like he is not aware of that CUST-GEL is a Generic kit.

I'm 99.99% sure that all the remaining 3 X10a generic kits will get the update soon.

Again when checking for these firmwares/SI they need to check it via EMMA, and only the latest release for that particular kit will appear, and no info on when or if any 2.3 update will be available.
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
Even if they release global generic 1234 - 4820, why would you want it if you live in America with a regionally optimized American Generic 1234 - 8200?

I know for a fact that global generic 2.1 was missing American apps like Google Voice Search. Going American can only be a good thing.... as long as you live in America.

Also, remember that unknown13x said to get the regional firmware, not global generic.
[XPERIA X10 General] arkedk:
I've never discussed those things with you. So sure no point in not changing if you feel like it.

And 1234-4820 is not Global Generic, 1232-9897 is Global Generic.

But on all the official X10i 2.3.3 firmwares I've been on here, Google Voice Search has been on all of them, so wont say it's an American app.

So Voice Search should be present when the 2.3.3 update hits 1234-4820.
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
I wasn't talking directly to you... X10a owners in general.

Global Generic X10a 2.1 firmware does NOT include Google Voice Search, but All the regional firmwares do, like Brazil.

I have to admit a large part of this is my fault from my X10a AT&T update to 2.1 generic thread. At the time we were told only generic kits would get the update, but it was never verified by SI number.....

Thanks in advance..
[XPERIA X10 General] arkedk:
The difference is, that there is different update policies from different carriers.

Carriers is responsible for bringing out updates to their branded devices.

In your case your phone is from Rogers, and they are the ones responsible for bringing out updates, so the update polices for Rogers apply to your device. So if they decide not to support that handset any more they can chose to do so, thus not bringing out any more updates for that particular SI and CDA.

Generic kits/handsets is Sony Ericssons own devices which they themselves serves update & support for, thus always being updated first and to the very End of Life for the device.

Here's my experience. I have x10a with ATT. Was running 2.1 rooted. (1234-4280).

I tried to upgrade to 2.3.3 US-Generic from the link in this thread. Did everything strep by step and i installed 2.3.3. After that i tried to root it with flashtool 3... (the button "root" wasn't visible in flashtool) unsuccessful. Tried with flashtool 2.9... and when told me "root will be available after reboot" never booted. Stuck on the SE logo. Lost possibilities to go under flash mode. Semybricked ot so...

Downloaded SEUS and flashed to 2.3.3 and never tried to root again. But if i flashed with SEUS, is that mean that i have the original FW from SE? SEUS said "there is new version of FW for your phone"...

So the question is how to root properly and get my backed up files from Titanium Backup?

Excuse my English.
