Let's hope we get more mirrors.. Mediafire, Rapidshare or Megaupload maybe..

Jerpelea wants a download count though. So...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ptesmoke:
if it was purposely missing files it wouldnt be an unexpected end of archive....
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Tejstar:
Does anyone know what benchmark this is and where I can find it?

Thanks.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
Please could I have this version too - I'm using it at the moment, but I only have a SEUS version.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
I've only got 5 files in the folder too, but no errors. Maybe the other files aren't needed...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Nimche:
I feel stupid download this one more time. As it is really corrupted..
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] jerpelea:
USE LATEST WINRAR from www.rarsoft.com

the archive is not corupt
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] IxXxI:
only these files are in the archieve.

It seems so that the rest will be not required.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] pietropizzi:
I would also prefer that version so i can be prepared to the instructions. Thank you!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Nimche:
Funny, because thats what I thought and tried it and its working now. Should I go to bed or wait for the release. No pushing no pressure just wondering.

"It comes out when it comes out":cool:
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
If you haven't got any sleep yet, you should. It's very early morning in the U.S. at the moment, isn't it?

You shouldn't be sleep deprived because of us.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Tejstar:
Don't worry, found out that it is called 'Benchmark' by softweg in the Android Market.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Findee:
I'm using 7-zip v4.65 and it decompressed the archive perfectly with no errors :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ssjowowo:
WWE_R1EA018 was not complete. jerpelea is reuploading
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] samygent:
weird mine works perfectly
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ssjowowo:
it was extracting but you couldn't flash with just system and userdata. you need all the sin files in the package
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MarylandCookie:
Afaik, it was missing the application software :p
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ssjowowo:
yep. hope ppl saw that and download it again when it's up
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MarylandCookie:
I can upload just the application software but not sure if thats what jerpeleas planning on doing or is he going to upload both again... :confused:
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ssjowowo:
the link is down anw so lets wait for him to reupload the whole thing. he said he wants to keep track of the downloads too
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] katem:
good job guys

thank you

nice avatar :D
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] jerpelea:
reuploaded r1ea018 rom

sorry guys for the error
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] PheneoN:
Good job guys, waiting for further instructions......
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
Thanks - downloading now...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] hellogadgetman:

The new upload seems to be complete, with no errors. Thanks, jerpelea. :)

Now, we'll just have to wait.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dexter26:
Hi guys im trying to update my firmware for 4 hours without success.I downloaded the O2 WWE_R2BA020 for seus debranding from the first page.using the companion i repair my phone then rename those 2 files and copy them into db folder then run the companion again and pressed the repair again.as far as i understood the procedure im doing everything right.or dont i? could someone help me out here please?

Thanks
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
You have to put the renamed files here:

If your using update service - C:\Program Files\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\db\13740270\blob_fs

If through PC Companion - C:\ProgramData\Sony Ericsson\SEMC OMSI Module\db\13740270\blob_fs

Also, don't bother updating yet - you'll probably need to flash over it again soon, anyway...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dexter26:
yeah but the thing is that in C:\ProgramData\Sony Ericsson\SEMC OMSI Module i dont have the db folder with 13740270\blob_fs files

And why i shouldn't bother updating yet??? something new on the way?

Thanks for your reply
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] xd4d3v:
you need to use SEUS, not the companion.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] j4mm3r:
Have you been sleeping? Instructions for root are coming out soon.

Anyways, back to topic. I think you have to initialize the Update software for the first time by selecting the repair option. This is the way to force the updater to download the firmware and create these folders. After that, you simply replace the files with the custom ones and fire away.

Remember, its always repair as there is nothing to update!! At least thats what the update service thinks.

Yes thats correct, SEUS is a separate download from Sony Ericsson website, it worked better for me too.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dexter26:
so if im using seus i have to copy those files into C:\Program Files\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\db\13740270\blob_fs rename them to 1 and 2 copy them then close it and run seus.file number 1 should be the 135 Mb and 2 shold be the 16Mb one right?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] chandyperry:
Hi,

Here is the link to one of my firmware update logs :

http://dl.free.fr/ccFXpW8b5 I hop that it'll be useful...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
I'm not at home and have no data cable. Someone please try to flash the files i attached. I tryed something.

BUT be careful! I'm not responsibel for any damage on your phone if something goes wrong! Normally it should give an error if flashing fails and nothing happens, but this is very very beta :)

So who is gonna test?

Please post me the logfile which is created after flashing.

-Bin4ry

EDIT:

Attachment deleted because not workin'
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] lqbweb:
what is supposely to be that? :S a rooted firm? :|
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] jnd16d:
how to use it?

i want to try
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
tried something to get the ro.secure set to "0". It's not the whole firm.

connect phone in flash mode (like SEUS):

power off. plug in usb cable an hold down the back button then execute the bat file. Thanks

-Bin4ry
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
It doesn't seem to work for me - here's the error and log file.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] cangui:
I have the same thing
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
Thanks for testing. Are you sure your phone is in flash mode? Because this is the error you get if the phone isn't connected or isn't connected in flash mode.

The green LED should be up while you are in flash mode.

these are the steps:

Start X10flash.bat

Powerdown X10

Connect USB Cable and Hold Down the Back button. (Windows should recognize the phone and the green LED should be there)

At this state you must press ENTER in the terminal

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] collider:
For me was the Problem the 32bit USB driver, im on 64bit Win7,can i change this with x10 64bit driver?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] sim-value:
Uninstall the X10 driver from the device manager.

reinstall it choosing the x64 folder as driver path
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] collider:
Sorry cant install 64bit USB wont work for me,dont know why. :(
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
The green led appeared and the driver installed - but the java errors still occur. :confused:

Anyway, you don't need to thank me - I don't mind being a guinea pig! :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
Okay thanks for testing

Seems that i must check this myself at home. Don't know whats going wrong. Must check this. I've deleted the attachment and reupload it when i made progress.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] biktor_gj:
Hi Bin4ry, for me I get an "unable to open channel", it seems like it doesn't detect it, even if it's properly connected. The fault appears at line 98...

By the way, I don't know if this phone uses it, but this is from default.prop

#
# ADDITIONAL_DEFAULT_PROPERTIES
#
ro.secure=0
ro.allow.mock.location=1
ro.debuggable=1
persist.service.adb.enable=1
ro.semc.version.sw=1227-4612
ro.semc.version.sw_revision=R1FA016
ro.semc.version.sw_variant=GENERIC
ro.semc.baseband.version=1.0.16
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
Wait, is this the default.prop on the device ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] biktor_gj:
Yes it is, extracted from the ramdisk. Those are the whole contents of the file. I've got the other .rcs too if you need
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
IF ro.secure=0 is set in the default.prop inside the root of the device then you can use adb shell an you will automatically get root.

I have the ramdisk files etc. but. What i want to try was to set the ro.secure to "0".

So my question was if this default.prop is actually on the root of your device after you've done den X10flash.bat

Just like the others, I'm quite certain I'm in flash mode. Have tried twice, power off - remove battery for 5 sec, hold back button while connecting to PC - A second later I release the back-button and press enter.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] biktor_gj:
Default.prop is already on the ramdisk from the upgrade files (from sonyericsson update service). That's why I don't know if it uses it. In theory, if that appears on default.prop we should automatically get root as you say, but as we don't, or the phone doesn't use that file, or Android is also patched so whatever that says it doesn't care. Or maybe we need to tell it is a debugging build and not a production one..

EDIT: Sorry, I don't know what I'm saying sometimes... ;) Of course it's not using this file, as adb is supposed to be persistent, but when the phone boots (unless you changed the option) it should automatically start adb, and it doesn't, so probably the default.prop isn't used for more than declaring the semc versions...

By the way, about FOTA updates (firmware over the air): For this, SE has used a company called RedBend, specialist on making software to download FOTA and apply those firmwares. There's a 270 kb file on the flash files with the binary it uses for it. It seems it also checks signatures on the files it downloads over the air...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
Had you ripped out this file by yourself or got it from jerpelea? Because jerpelea had already made a ramdisk wich was "patched" this file was it which he claims could be flashed through SETool.

Can you send me the file, because in my ramdisk the "ro.secure" is set to "1".

If this is a orignal signed file from SE then we have a way root the device.

-Bin4ry
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
Rename the files in the archive to be the same as the (similar sized) ones in the C:\Program Files\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\db\13740270\blob_fs folder, and then replace the ones in the folder with the ones in the archive. Then run SEUS, and follow the instructions until your phone is flashed.

Please don't do this yet though, you'll be wasting your time, as I think the rooting tutorial will be released today or tomorrow.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dexter26:
instruction for rooting are comming soon_whats that means?today tmrw or next week???and i was using the repair selection before changing for the new files

anyway thank you
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Battosai94:
"Instructions for rooting are coming soon" means they're coming soon xD

So be patient and let them work ^^x

When it'll be ready, they will post it ;)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ixemun:
but biktor_gj says otherwise
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] biktor_gj:
We need recovery and boot partition (where the kernel and ramdisk are stored)

Then we'll be ready for cooking!

Until then we can optimize by much sonyericsson's crappy firmware, and even update some things, do some themes and that kind of stuff...

I have gone from 16 hour normal battery life to rougly 2 days by removing that LearningClient I still don't know what it does, Moxier, Wiper App (wich I also don't know what it does), SemcIME & quite a lot more crap from the phone.

It's like magic when I see that if I don't touch the phone for two hours, battery doesn't drop even 1%.

Of course still a lot of work to do, but hopefully soon we'll post it to general public.

Oh, by the way, SonyEricsson, if some of your employees are reading this...

BIG THANKS FOR YOUR WORK! You did a pretty good job at locking down the bootloader, but you did an EPIC FAIL at everything else. You'll know what Im talking about when we release it :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] charmz2k2:
Wow, that sounds awesome :-)

Will you be able to suggest which bits of SE rubbish you've got rid of once you've released so we can get that sort of battery life and efficiency?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dexter26:
Hey man thanks for your help.when we were talking about how to update my phone i had warning triangle on the screen so even after you sad i should wait for rooting i have to flash the new one.but thankfully with your help and helps of other members of this community i managed to successfully flash me phone and i have to say soo far soo good.So once again THANK YOU and waiting for rooting
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] biktor_gj:
More or less that's it:

from /system/app

LearningClient*

Wiper*

fbuplo*

Medias*

medias*

moxier*

Mixi*

*shinb*

*ocomo*

SemcIME*

*utorial*

trackid*

from /data/app

jp*

from /data/app-private

jp*

More or less that's it (I'm writing it without looking as I already removed them :P)

And no more background seach of the faces of your friends to track them on facebook, no more mediascape, docomo applications from r1ea018, and definitely, a lot of crap less :)

NOTE: REMEMBER TO BACK THEM UP FIRST. If something crashes after that I'm not responsible for it. Just in case, I had to say it...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddewbofh:
Looking forward to the release, it feels weird to have complete facebook support draining your battery when you don't even use it. :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Chewitt:
the phone has loads of features that due to the SE UI are useless, the face id is cool but not really that usefull, main problem with it is that i know what my friends look like lol, and with the use of folders for events it makes it easy to find pics, only time i would use Face ID is if i didnt have folders and just had loads pics all over the place.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] figofigo:
guys need help with this i cant a cl more than 5 min then it disconnect is there any dolutoon for thos problem

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Redferne:
Is there anyway to apply root without loosing all app settings?

Is there anyway to flash WWE R2BA020 without loosing all app settings?

Thanks!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dan-htc-touch:
probably not, gonna have to take your pick... root or settings
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddewbofh:
*Dances a little jig.*

Tonight I'm gonna root my baby, root her hard. :P
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rosco16:
Please can you create a video in youtube of flash tool process to flashing a rom ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] biktor_gj:
Nope, it will delete all the contents from the phone. And I'm sorry, but there's no other way, we need to flash a full package... and half of another one :D
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rocketpaul:
is it a very risky procedure or simple like rooting the G1
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddewbofh:
By the sound it there's a chance of failure. Flashing one image and then flashing parts of another. Doesn't sound like a one-click job. :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Chewitt:
it sounds like fun to me lol, if i kill the x10 its back to the 9700 till i fix it lol.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MarylandCookie:
You dont have to do it if you feel that way :p

To add tho' "Its the best parts of R2BA020 (battery fix, etc)" ;)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddewbofh:
I have to use my Blackstone currently for interweb anyway so my X10 is ready for action. :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Chewitt:
Is that Late night your time? or will it be in the next 4 hours? just so that i know what time frame im looking at over here in the UK
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] jimsey:
Jerpelea,

is there anything else we can download before you release it that we might need?

( other then flash tool and the 2 firmware packages you previously indicated)

cant wait to root this thing, after moving from win mo I have hated not being able to have the system customised just the way i want it

already have a machine running ubuntu, will this be needed?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddewbofh:
Hehe, I love a challenge. I was just pointing out that it doesn't sound like a simple userland root-job like the G1. :)

The minute I see it posted I'll be modding my X10, hopefully successfully. :P
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
Is that U.S. night, because I'll probably be asleep... :(

Anyway, thanks so much - we'll finally be free of SE restrictions (at least everything apart from the bootloader...)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Chewitt:
Its been said a few times now the root uses Developer parts and so skips the bootloader signing
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Nimche:
Isn't that just amazing? SE will cry tonight outside of my phone in the corner.;)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zoz33:
Great News.. Congrats to you for the achievement, way to go.. Keep it up, looking forward to custom ROMs as well..

One question though: Will the root be delivered as an update image to be applied by SEUS\FlashTool? Will it be reversible?

Thanks alot
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
Yeah, I know that, it's just that we can't prevent SE's future roms from overwriting the bootloader with a new one. But, to solve that we just have to not flash them, and make our own roms, later on.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Battosai94:
They work on it to be easy ^^x

Answer will be given tonight :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Nimche:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] theMaDHakkeR:
Hi everyone

I just had a question. I've been watching the forums now for months since getting my x10. I'm simply wondering if I will needed to debrand my Rogers X10 prior to any kind of rooting. I know this may be a stupid question and possibly be answered when root becomes available later tonight, but I just thought if this was a necessary step then I should start getting acquainted with flashtool now. Any input is very appreciated.

Thanks.

Oh and I'm currently running R1FA014 Rogers branded.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] robbyf66:
my instincts tell me that flashtool will be a vital tool from today and forward for this device. It probably won't hurt getting use to it. Hopefully the tutorial is super self explanitory so there isn't 1000 post asking the same 5 questions.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rosco16:

can somebody tell me a solution for this ?

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Vilam:
Sorry, I'm a little bit lost, what is the lasted decrypted firmware for the x10i ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ahsengah:
I've noticed something int he o2 firmware, that wasn't in the older firmware i was using (generic HK R2BA014).

Previously with the generic fw, to dial someone from your contact list, all you had to do was open up the contact, then click their number and it would immediately start dialing. With the o2 firmware, you have to click the number, then it takes you back to the dialer menu with the number loaded, then you have to press the call button. wtf, made a simple operation more difficult ?

Did anyone else using telenor or o2 firmware notice this ? It's quite annoying for me ..
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] superprelude:
Yes, I notice that too. But you can press and hold on the number and select call.

Either way, it's too much trouble just to call someone.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ahsengah:
Exactly my thoughts. It was fine before, why change it and make it a longer process ? Dammit, why fix it if it ain't broke
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ash969:

if you're using X10a, unbrick using flash tool with X10a firmware, from what I've tried, X10i can't use X10a firmware, you'll end up with a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark, I take that it's the same for other way around.

Is still reported as X10i && 1.1.25.

This is false information because they are hardcoded in firmware it it really didn't change anything?

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] jerpelea:
download flash/unbrick application

download an x10a rom from here

unpack application

delete every *.sin file inside EXCEPT loader.sin

unpack your rom

unpack the 2 zip files

there will be many sin files

rename system-xxxxxxxxxx.sin to system.sin

rename usedata-xxxxxxxxx.sin to usedata.sin

copy all sin files in flash/unbrick folder

flash the phone fith flash/unbrik application

!!! now you have an shipped X10a rom
