yes, I did every part, I followed the video posted in OP.. my phones rooted but I can't access Xrecovery :( what do I do?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trojan92:
well I just found a fix for my phone. I think installing over a 2.2 rom was at fault here, for some reason after installing Wolf's 2.3, my phone wasn't rooted (no busybox,superuser,Xrecovery) and once I tried to install xrec on my pc, it wouldn't find my phone, so after all that, I decided to try installing it on my sister's pc and it worked, my phone is rooted with xrec working. so any one out there not wanting to restore back to 2.1 when installing 2.3 SHOULD install back to 2.1, installing from custom roms causes problems, learnt the hard way,. but if there are people here that went the same way I did and don't have their x10 rooted, go here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1196421

install Xrec and root it :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravinmiist:
So with the introduction of the stock Gingerbread it includes full device encryption. IMO this is a huge win for Androids everywhere since it now supports all exchange policies (i'm also the exchange admin) and i don't need to use touchdown.

The issue is when I run the unlocked bootloader the encryption breaks. It gets about 25% done and clears the screen and continues booting. Once the system boots up encryption boxes for device and sdcard is enabled but testing new files on the sdcard on my laptop I can open the files. While on the stock bootloader it gets to 100% and any new files on my sdcard cannot be opened on the laptop.

Is anyone aware of this issue?

Whenever I enter the "theme preferences" adw crashes. I've sent in a number of reports and error logs but have got no response I've even emailed the developer asking but got no response.

[EVO 4G General] cory_dre:
I'm getting a status of -96 dBm and 0 asu. Is that bad? I just always have low signal. Any suggestions?
[EVO 4G General] davidc23:
Can't do nothing about it.
[EVO 4G General] eeeeeeeeek:
While it's possible that the rom doesn't agree with your evo's hardware. If you've had good signal on other roms then my first guess would be that it's a prl issue, maybe try updating and see if that corrects it. If none of that works then maybe it's locational, maybe someone put up a dish or construction or something like that, that has caused your phone to begin having poor signal. If none of this is the case then maybe you just have bad luck and the cell phone gods have decided to have some fun at your expense.
[EVO 4G General] github:
AOSP appears to measure signal differently than Sense. One explanation I've read many times is that AOSP measures data and Sense measures 1X/Voice.

Check your signal in both ROMs via dBm and see? At work I can have solid bars on Sense and 1-2 on AOSP and have the same speed/responsiveness.

YMMV
[EVO 4G General] MaxCarnage:
Yes, that is bad. On Sense that would be about one-to-two bars, and in an AOSP ROM that would likely have you on 1x.

While Sense and AOSP display signal strength differently in bars (Sense has six bars, AOSP has four), the dBm is usually the same. I have experimented on this many times, because where I work I get horrible signal (between -94 to -96 pretty much constantly) and while the bars report differently and Sense reports 3G more often, the dBm is almost always the same no matter which ROM I am running.

What this means, from my experience, is that the ROM has little to do with signal strength. Radios, PRLs, etc. are what affect signal strength. The ROMs just report it differently, so people think that the ROM is making a difference.

That's just based on my observations, anyway. I can't flash right now so I haven't been able to use Deck's latest and greatest, much to my chagrin.

Place the zip of whichever you choose on the root of your sdcard and name it PG05IMG.zip

Boot to hboot (either manually by booting with Power+VolDwn from power-off then select Bootloader or select "Reboot" then "Bootloader" from the Power menu in CM7).

Follow the directions to flash it in bootloader.

Reboot when you are told to.

You should now have service.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JBO1018:
Some people seem to have better luck with certain radios. I personally have been getting the best signal strength and battery life with the official OTA MR2 radio. Some people have said they have better luck with one of the leaked radios. I would reccomend trying the official OTA MR2 radio first if you are on a ROM that supports it. The OP of the ROMs thread will say which radios are compatible and recommended.

[Thunderbolt Accessories] voxigenboy:
i know i do not want the official HTC 2750mAh as i had one before and was disappointed in its performance. i see theres a Seidio 3200mAh and pretty sure i want that one as the battery i use most right now is a Seidio 1600mAh and they seem to be a decent company.

ive seen weird off-brands/generics claiming to be 3500 & 6400 but i art least know better with those.

is that Seidio 3200 going to be the best bet? anything with a higher mAh? and that Seidio ive seen for $55.... is there anywhere selling it cheaper?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] trapperjohn:
I have seen the Seido 3200 on Amazon for as low as $52.00.

I have seen good reviews but like you would like to know how it compares to the HTC extended 2750.

I'm getting a constant 40+ hours on the OEM HTC 2750. What were you seeing with yours?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] voxigenboy:
when i had the 2750 battery, i could watch a movie all the way through and then do some web browsing for about 2 hours or so before the the warning to plug in for power comes up at 15%....

with the seidio 1600 battery i currently use, i can watch a movie all the way through and then web browse for almost an hour before the warning comes up.

and yes, know all about battery calibration, battery saving settings, etc..

i'm more of a 'heavy user', i rarely actually use the phone to make calls and the only time i use the phone is when i'm away from my laptop, thus all the "heavy usage".
[Thunderbolt Accessories] singalongjonl:
Look around, and do some research and wait for sales. That is your best bet.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] g00s3y:
That had to have been a bad battery, if you are getting that much with the 1600, the 2750 should do much better. Where did you get the battery from, VZW? Wherever you did I would call up and tell them you got a dud battery.

Throughout the 40+ hours I can get with the 2750, i'm streaming music for about 5-6, and play games for about 2-3, plus fb/twitter/gmail/g+/etc... This is why i'm thinking the battery had to be a bad one.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] BennyJr:
^^^Im with him. I get easily 2 days or 48hrs out of mine. And thats with things syncing constantly and music on.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] voxigenboy:
i ended up getting the 2750 battery again since it was on sale for $39.

when i had it the 1st time, the phone wasn't rooted... this time it is rooted and on the latest CM7 1.5.2

the battery still doesn't last quite as long as it does for you guys, but i do notice on average, if i turn off mobile network and watch a movie... it uses about 8-9% of the battery throughout the entire duration of the film.

odd though, with mobile network on browsing the web, after about 1 hour it also uses about 8-9% of the battery.

although it is an improvement over the stock of course. i think i'll just stick with this for awhile and then move to a bigger mAh later.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] g00s3y:
I've noticed I get about 30-32 hours on average with the phone when I was using CM7. Don't know why but I can never get as good battery life with AOSP roms, it's always better (for me) with sense roms. :confused:

Give it like a week. it will get better. i had a 3500 one from amazon and it sucks compared to the 2750
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ishan Sardar:
I know im late but this is a bit confusing for me. I have rooted my x10 and according to "rootchecker" I also have busybox installed.(tho I can't find the busybox icon in my menu, it's just the superuser) Now I've seen some mods that requires me to flash the files via xrecovery. For example Bravia Engine, FPS Uncap, X-loud.

Now my question is when I open those file it has two folders "META-INF" and "System" now how do I put this into my phone?

Methods & Problems:

xRecovery - How do I flash the .zip file via xrecovery? Should I put it in my sd card and from the xrecovery mode press "Install update.zip from SD card"?? If yes then where in SD card? And Do I have to rename it as update.zip when I put it in my SD card?

Changing Value - There are some apps that requires changing value of my build.props. But when I change the value and try press tab to save, the save tab doesn't show (I mean I can't click on it). Then when I press back there's two option of "save" and "Discard" but when I save it and then re-enter into my build.props the value gets back to its original state. It doesn't change??

Unpacking - It says in a topic "Unpack all of the files to the relevant folders on your mobile" - What relevent folder? the folder it has in the zip file is not present in my sd card (I can see those folder via astro manager and I tried to copy/paste those folder into my sd and then via asto I tried to replace each original file that I have in my phone but it doesn't work, it doesn't let me paste it)

Sorry if this sounds stupid to you guys but I'm new to android and I'm having problem getting things right. So if any of you would help me through this issue step by step it'd be greatly appreciated.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J!K:
To install those kind of things you have to use flashtool to add xrecovery to your phone, then you have to copy the .zip file in the sd card then turn off your phone and turn it back on when you get the sony ericsson logo start hitting the back key repeatedly till you go in xrecovery mode, use volume keys to go down and menu key to select, select the option install custom zip... then select install from sd card, then select the zip, and then select yes... let it install it and once is finish remove the battery and put back in, turn on your phone and the bravia, xloud or whatever zip you installed should be already running
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwarkje:
To change the values in build.prop I recommend the use of Root Explorer,

Go to the folder \system\, tap on the grey button at the top of your screen, that says "Mount R/W", (after tapping it will read "Mount R/O". This will make the copying in root-folders possible, too.... you have to have changing-rights (read-write) to copy things into root-folders.

Then long-click on build-prop, scroll down and choose "Open in Text editor", change whatever you must change, and click left-hardware-button and after that choose "Save and Exit". The Root Explorer will make (and announce) a backup-copy named "build.prop.bak".

This should work.

Good luck, greetz,
