[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anduilas:
Hello, reading this forum for a solution since yesterday 1am...

I was trying to flash my X1 with a updated rom.

Things i already tried:

- Flash directly via SD-Card (File named kovsimg.nbh)

- Flash via RUU-Tool

- Flash SPL via RUU-Tool

With Tool i always get Error 260 or 262. I tried resetting Device, rebooting Device, rebooting Computer, another Computer.

Information displayed by X1 in Boot Mode:

KOVS110

SPL-0.72.0000

MicroP1-787

MicroP2-707

and at the bottom Connection Info...Serial or USB.

Did i forget to do something or do something wrong?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agent008my:
here is a video tutorial flashing a custom ROM using your SD card. you seem to have done the right steps. however i highly doubt you installed your hard SPL. before flashing a custom ROM you HAVE TO INSTAL HARD SPL.

go through these step by step videos. they should help you

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anduilas:
Hello again.

I just solved that problem.

As said before i tried to install Hard SPL but always got an error.

I set up another PC with a fresh OS (Win XP Pro) and was now able to flash Hard SPL and also new roms.

So it seems to be an issue either with Win 7 64bit or something installed on the main PC

The Video Tutorials you mentioned were those i used each try as i'm still new to X1 flashing...previous experiences i had some time ago with MDA I to III (HTC Blue Angel mostly).

Thanks for the help

I still have one problem concerning my X1i. In the guides the mention a hard reset is performed by pressing both Silver Screen buttons and the power button but my device doesn't react to this
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agent008my:
hold down the left and right hard buttons and keep holding them down. press and release the power button, while still holding the left and right buttons. do not release the two silver buttons until a message pops up on your screen. it should happen in under 5 seconds from pressing and releasing the power button.

another option would be to hold down those 2 hard keys, and insert the stylus into the soft reset hold. that should definitely prompt a hard reset of ur phone. if you have doubts for this method, check the image i have attached.

EDIT 1-another alternate method if the two above fail

Step by step

1. switch off your phone.

2. enter in bootloader by press and hold volume down key then press and hold power on button keep holding both untill four colour bootloader screen shows up. (release power on and volume down)

3. press and hold both left and right silver keys at front while holding them press and hold hardreset button located under battery cover untill white screen with warning shows up.

4. open keyboard and press "R"

5. Follow instruction on screen.

EDIT 2: IF THOSE METHODS DONT WORK, IM QUITE SURE YOU WOULD FIND A SOLUTION IN THIS THREAD

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anduilas:
Ah, thanks again, my fault was i just didn't release the Power Button prior to the other ones.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oranek:
Okay, so I dont know what should I search exactly... 'coz backup doesnt satisfy me, well... Never mind, I just ask a question: How do I do a complete backup, with all my settings, contacts, opera tabs, etc, etc. You know, I want to try different roms, but if they are bad or something (im using now 826x, it's very nice :)) I want to go back to my old rom, and old stuff, I dont want to set it all up once again.

So how do I do a complete backup?

EDIT:

So, my new question which I want to ask is, can I somehow set that sms delivery confirmation isnt saved as sms, only as a notification poping up on screen, or something like that (It was that way in my old sony ericcsson w910)? You know what I mean?

Such a noob questions, but it is the right place to ask it, isnt it? ;)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper89:
For your first question, I use Sprite backup which restores all your settings that you save when you make a backup file. If you want PM me and I will give it to you ;).
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caliban2:
For your first question:

Yeah, sprite backup or sktools. Just keep in mind that complete sys-backups can break things when you're upgrading your rom-version or try one from another cook.

Second question:

No idea. Never seen such a setting, neither in htc-messaging or in outlook. Could be provider-dependant.

Hi all i am noob on site...

Im planing to buy my first smartphone , and i want to buy used so i was looking what can i get for price of cca 100 euros, and i really like X1.

My question is what do you owners of X1 think is this phone good buy today.

This will be my first smartphone i used Sony Ericson Z550 for a very long time, and problem with most other phones i can buy is they are touch only.

I would really love to have qwerty.

Thx in advance.

XPeria droid

Hey, I heard ages ago that xda team was developping a port of android for X1 XPeria... Does anyone know if this got forward? (fixed stability, new android OS)?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XtriFe:
erclalle,

Have a look at the Xperia X1 Android development subforum, they've made some progress and some report there are builds decent enough for daily use, but I am unable to confirm this myself. They still haven't found a way to get the camera working as of today though, among a few other things.

The X1 has issues. Because of the way it was designed/built/put together (specifically the glue used), the physical keyboard double-types letters after awhile and in order to fix it you have to disassemble the phone and clean the keyboard's pcb contacts. Also, the ribbon cable that connects each half of the phone (screen and keyboard, to put it that way) fails too and will need replacing. Replacement parts, however, are easily found on eBay and they're not too expensive. If you're willing to put up with those issues (and a couple more ) then go ahead. Otherwise have a look at different phones. If you still want windows mobile 6.* and physical qwerty keyboard, have a look at the LG Expo, though im not sure if there's an international version that runs on the european 3G bands

My touch screen isn't working anymore?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caliban2:
"doesn't work" is a very elastic term... your post is - well, let's call it "pointless". and why putting it as a question, are you not sure it doesn't work anymore?

stays black? shows something, but doesn't recognize touch? winmo or android? only in landscape or portrait mode as well?

if you want information, give some first!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1gangstabob2:
It doesn't react on touch at all, in landscape and vice versa. I have 826x rom installed, but when on win it has its time too when not reacting on touch. The backlights aren't doing it ass wel, maybe something with the drivers? Idk.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caliban2:
826x and win?! the first is winmo as well...

anyhoo:

do a hardreset (or flash a rom you KNOW it's working with).

if this doesn't help, it's bound to be a hw-failure. doesn't sound like flexcable, more like the digitizer of your screen is defect. (maybe it's just a loose cable?)

anyway, try hardreset/flashing first to rule out software.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1gangstabob2:
I am not sure. I don't think so because other X1's would have problems too. The problem is somethimes it does react, and sometimes it doesn't.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caliban2:
aha. well, if you think so. not a really precise answer from you.

i told you to figure out if it's sw or hw for sure. if you're interested to do that is your decision. good luck!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1gangstabob2:
I am sure it is a SW problem, because sometimes it does react.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caliban2:

Hi

why do you first say your bootloader is locked when shortly after you say that you can enter it?

What ROM are you trying to flash? You are on stock SPL (after H-SPL it would look like SPL-0.78.OliNex), so only stock ROMs could work.

Backflip

Hi!

I've been searched for phones with Qualcomm 7201A, and i found motorola backflip.

For some strange reasons XDA X1 Android developers make ROMs unusable, because of "hardware" limitations.

If Motorola Backflip CAN use Android 2.2 with 7201A (same as X1), and its stable, and last for days when standby, WHY X1 cant??

I think we should review the backflip kernel and fill it with our working drivers (minimalistic battery, Touchscreen, sound, radio).

I cant believe what is the problem with x1. We need the above drivers first. Battery reading accuracy is not important, i think if it would show 50% always, and turns of phone when battery is on 3.1V, and turns of charging when 4.2V its good.

Sry, i'm going to join in to development but i cant post into DEV forums :D
