[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Draken Korin:
there are some threads on the subject but the problem des is different than yours

how long did you recharge? hope you use a wall socket, not usb; try again after e.g. an hour and take out sd card, maybe that makes a difference

post update, gl

do you flash via ruu or sd? sounds like sd, take out sd card b4 hard reset so it cannot find an image (or move the image away from root)

if that doesn't help consider flashing back to stock (maybe using task29 in between, read carefully if you want to), could be that the last flash didn't erase all data and you are suffering some conflicts now

Hi there,

I am a newbie here like some others as well so please apologize in case I did not find already the answer by searching other threads/posts, but I could not find an answer so far for my problem.

I tried the speaker volume hack on my X1 and messed up somehow. The registry setting in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev\ "acousticfile" is audiopara3.csv, as it should be like I read in many other posts. But somehow it is not working and if I am remember correctly, the original setting before was something different then audiopara3.cvs, I just can't remember what it was.

Can someone please check the registry in the X1 and post the value for "acousticfile" if that is different from the audiopara3.cvs?

I hope I can get this fixed again....

To avoid unnecessary questions: No, I did not back up my original registry... stupid enough from my side :-(

Please help...

Thanks,

bricked x1i

how's it goin guys

just a quickie, (i tried searching for a similar problem within the forum but didnt find anything) anyways i flashed my x1i with the sex1 wm6.5 rom and it worked fine for about a month... then crapped itself :mad:

basically it'd boot up to splash screen & restart, and just constantly wouldnt go past the splash screen, so i downgraded firmware to R1A and reflashed with generic stock 6.1 rom, and hard reset before starting up. it went through the motions of screen alignment and all that, then after restart it got to home screen and just before it loads up the pin screen for the sim card it restarted in the same fashion as with the sex1.

I tried flashing with a good few other roms such as R02x2 and other 6.1 roms (vodafone and o2) with no joy, i thought it might've been a radio problem but i tried all of the radios available in kovskys lab with no joy,

so basically my question is, is there a way to completely wipe the main board of the unit or do something similar or is there an easier way to fix it? i'm pretty certain warranty is out of the question because i cant get the stock spl back on while the phone is in its current state.

Any and all help is much appreciated

Hey, 2 simple nooby questions here:

2. Today I downloaded some "xray" app, when I copied (not installed) it to the phone, phone started to connect to 3g/edge.. I kept canceling it, but it went on and on... I deleted that copied app then, and it still wanted to connect, after restarting the phone it was all normal again, it was a virus? If I deleted the file I'm safe now right? It was 1 file, unless it made changes on it's own in the phone dunno if that is possible..

There is no original wm6.5 ROM for X1, only custom ROMs.

So if you want wm6.5 you'll have to download a custom ROM.

There are stock looking wm6.5 ROMs for X1, look in the Xperia ROM subforum.

Meestal is dat bij een dode link. Moet dan een hoop programmas downloaden maar die downloadlinks werken niet en zelf kan ik het ook nergens anders vinden die programmas.

Since this is an English forum and the rules state the forum members post in English I'm posting my reply in English.

Before you can flash a custom ROM you need to hardSPL your phone:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=431218

You don't need to backup your ROM, because all stock ROMs can be found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=475482

What you might need to backup before you flash a new ROM is contacts, sms, personal files, call logs which are located on your phone.

To do that you can use; PIM Backup, Microsoft MyPhone and for files just copy/paste.

You don't need to backup stuff on your SDcard, as the flash has no influence on that.

Now you need to pick a ROM in the Xperia ROM subforum.

After you've downloaded the ROM you can flash either using customRUU (attached) or the microSD flash method.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=445662

For customRUU, just extract the attached file and place the *.nbh in the same folder an run (phone needs to be connected with Activesync).

Problem #1

I managed to hardSPL my phone, but now i would like to install this rom: |WWE|XPERIA|¯`·.¸¸.- Energy -.¸¸.·´¯ |Jun 6| 21905|23569 |`·.¸¸.·´¯ MaxSense ¯)

When i click the ROM Downloads with Sense 2.5 button i get a screen where i can download 10 files. Wich of them do i need to download ? All of them ?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lokatho:
No bigga deal, I understand it's easier to talk in Dutch.

You need just one of the 10 files....

First choice, OS;

21905: wm6.5 with start button like wm6.1, in top bar. More stable and maybe somewhat faster

23569: wm6.5 with start button in bottom bar, larger finger friendly icons in bottom bar. More experimental, so probably a bit more unstable and slower than 21905.

Second, interface:

Titanium (wm6.5 interface), Sense 2.1 or Sense 2.5

Third, if you chose Sense 2.5:

Stock SEnse 2.5, Co0kie Home Tab (standard or GTX themed), MaxSense.

Look in EnergyROM thread for more detailed description of Sense 2.5 options.

Very new to X1. Just asking some questions

Hi!

I just got my X1 last week, and as I was surfing the web for updates and games for my phone, I came across to this site, since a lot of people around the web are referring this site. And when I was browsing some titles on the X1 threads, I got curious and checked some of them out. Now, I'm very overwhelmed and can't seem to understand some of the topics. I'm really interested in a lot of it but I don't know where to start since I really don't know how or what are some of what others are saying.

Anyways, I would just like to be informed on some stuff and if you think this is too n00b, i'll understand, because I really think this is a n00b post anyway hehe!

I found some people changing the UI of their x1's to match HTC's Sense UI. I was reading about it and they're mentioning requirements I couldn't understand (ROM hack, etc.)

Here it is:

*What are you doing with the phone's ROM, and why are you doing it?

*kitchen?

*Is there a single, main way of hacking the device? Since I'm seeing a lot doing their version of this stuff and that.

*I'm aware that WM 6.5 isn't available to the x1, but by hacking it, a lot are saying it can be installed. What are the pro's and cons in doing this?

*Any link or threads that you guys would like to suggest for n00bs like me/us regarding hacking/tinkering/x1?

Thanks so much for this thread and site! Hope my questions can also help others in here!

first of all welcome to xda :)

good 1st post, not new but definitely in the correct forum and thread ;)

you can flash custom roms, most of them are based on wm6.5 builds (or 6.1, chevk thread title snd first posts for details)

to be able to do that you have to hard-spl your phone (rom dev stickies, olinex thread)

you are successful when you see SPL-0.72.OliNex in bootloader screen

now you are already able to switch to custom roms, called flashing

you can do that either with customruu method (requires rooted device=active sync or wmdc connect, depending on pc os) or sd-card method (rom dev stickies, jackleung thread)

tutorials in biovolt and phenx threads (again rom dev stickies)

for warranty reasons you can revert to stock rom (pavelx1 thread rom dev stickies) and stock spl (olinex again)

kitchen is the software reqired for cooking roms

read a lot, espcially the stickies and the wiki, forum rules

general questions here, specific ones in the respective existing threads (after searching for already available answers of course ;))

so much for now :)
