I think we can broaden our view by taking into consideration both, the issues after root and issues during root.

this will help keep forum clean and all information regading root can be searched for under this thread.

nothing against you or your post though.

skyfire doesn't load the video correctly anymore, tried uninstall and reinstalling, and doesn't work. It would load the video up to 50% then plays it in the background while still having the 50% load screen. This issue was fixed in version 2.1 and R2 firmware, so hopefully this is fixed...

Argh! HELP!

I've gone through the Rooting process. Everything seems to have worked, and I am now listed as running "x10a", baseband "1.1.27", build number "R2BA023".

However, I can't get a data connection at all. WiFi works, but I can't get the 3G or GSM icons to appear at all, and can't get any data connection whatsoever. I'm with Rogers, and have entered the Rogers APN data, and selected the APN settings.

-edit-

OK, I got it working with "internet.com", as the APN entry, and the rest as suggested for Rogers. Not sure why "rogers-core-appl1-apn" isn't working, but for now at least things are functioning fine.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Running_Roti:
hey everyone, im sorry if this has already been answered somewhere but i searched around and couldnt find my problem.

ive rooted to the latest 23 rom on my X10A, everything is working great. i can see all paid apps and free apps on the marketplace. ive downloaded some apps from there so far, but sometimes when i press download on the app page, it just stays on 'starting download' and never actually downloads. im not sure why this is happening and ive tried a couple of times with different apps, none of them seem to be working anymore. i dont think i did anything too harsh, i uninstalled moxierMail and google talk and google mail. beyond that im not sure why this may be happening

can someone help me out?

thanks!!

EDIT: did some more searching and i found it!!

On my X10i I rooted using the R2BA023 method but ever since I rooted I haven't been able to access the phonebook. When I go into it, it comes up with my list of contacts but when I tap on them nothing happens and when I hold them down and choose "View Contact" it come up with an error "process.acore has stopped working" and then it force closes. Is there something I have missed installing?

Can you see if this is linked to battery temperature? Try running some software that will let you see the history of the battery temperature and see if it restarts at around 45C......
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Evil_E:
Did you remove all the TimeScape/MediaScape software? in that case you would be in trouble. Somewhere on this forum there is a solution to copy back those applications if you removed them in the first place.

Hi everybody.

Thanks a lot for root.

I got without any problems until step 3 but can't get any further.

I enabled USB debugging but command window says:

I installed PC Companion, SEUPS all drivers are fine but it fails at this step. Why?

Minor issue...

After "rooting", or during the process, I don't know which phase would be responsible.

But I getting an error, under Settings ==> Search ==> Google Search Settings

It's says:

Sorry!

The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

How do I fix this?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] saltorio:
Hmm... apparently I have the same issue. However, it doesn't really affect me and I didn't notice until reading this, as I'm using Phonebook 2.0. It works just fine, allowing me to edit and view contacts, and otherwise I don't seem to have any problems with recieving or making calls.

Might be worth looking into.

Also, is there a way to get the stock Android phonebook/dialer on the X10, rather than SE's custom one?

I think I lost Root....

Hey,

I think I lost root, to make matter worse, I deleted / lost all the input methods ... so, no keyboards.

I did recover using the aes installation for the HTC keyboard. But I did the "factory data reset" function, it wiped everything clean.

I lost superuser / titantium back-up, etc.

Do I have to start from Step #1 again?

I don't mind, since my important "contacts" are syn'd with SE software prior to the root procedure ...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dan-htc-touch:
just run step3 again, it will install everything :)

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mattiL:
Perhaps you have the SDCARD mounted in windows?

This will make it impossible for the script to copy the necessary file (fota.pkg) to the SDCARD before running the "Update from SDCARD".

Make sure the SDCARD is not mounted (visible as a drive in windows) and rerun the command file.

Hi everyone,

I've rooted my xperia X10i with 023 firmware using the updated rooting method . For the most part everything went okay apart from one thing:

1. I no longer have the original keyboard, i did the bug fix and ended up with an "htc keyboard" but I would like to have the original keyboard ..

Also, Internet seems to be rather slow .. any tips on that ?

I hope you guys can help me !

Thanks
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mattiL:
Redo the rooting, but in Step 3 DO NOT RUN cleanup.cmd, this will remove the SE keyboard.

You could modify cleanup.cmd slightly, add hashes (#) to the lines you dont want to be executed.

Like these lines below (in cleanup.cmd), change from :

@adb shell rm /system/app/SemcIME*

@adb shell rm /system/app/LatinImeTutorial*

@adb shell rm /system/app/LatinIME*

to:

#@adb shell rm /system/app/SemcIME*

#@adb shell rm /system/app/LatinImeTutorial*

#@adb shell rm /system/app/LatinIME*

As a sidenote, it is possible to add packages with adb.exe, but then you would need to have them available first.

So I think it is easier for you to redo the rooting instead.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] iridaki:
I rooted my X10i according to the latest rooting instructions.

I now notice a very annoying "bug".

I use ADW Launcher as my default homescreen.

From time to time (but really often, like once every hour or so) ALL the widgets I am using get stuck, they totally freeze and just won't update (the clock, the weather, TimeScape, quick settings, battery status)...

I am guessing that this is RAM related as I have noticed that it also happens every time I take some pictures with the camera!

Anyone knows anything about it?? Any solutions???

:'(

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] iridaki:
Nope! I haven't installed any kind of task manager/killer since the rooting. :confused:

Are you using Omnius or the flash tool to flash the fimware in step 1?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
There are alternatives on the market, like mvideo player, and justpictures or floating image for viewing pictures, and you can install mediascape again later on, but it's complicated, as there many files needed for it to run properly.

If you remove mediascape though, the link to the gallery (of mediascape) in the camera won't work anymore.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] matin_sb:
i Have used both of them! omnius gives a error in the middle of writing the zip file(about 80%) and flash tool successfully passes step1, i am stuck after that!

jerpelea, flashing the R2BA024 rom has left my phone 'bricked', and uninstalling java, reinstalling it, restarting my laptop, and reflashing hasn't done anything to change it. :confused:

How can I solve this problem?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] 1Hax:
solved this... flash ur phone back to 023. connect it via USB, run 024update. some files will copy to ur phone and it will ask u to reboot in flash mode. so do it. disconnect ur usb. turn off phone. hold back key and connect back to usb. press any key in cmd window.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
Thanks, it works now - so not copying build.prop was the problem...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
Can your phone be flashed successfully with the flash tool? If so, move on to step 2, after you've enabled USB debugging. If this doesn't work, install PC companion on your computer first.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Herr Noobien:
I rooted my X10a a while ago (I used the latest instructions) and everything seems to working fine...except the headphones :(

As far as I can tell, protected apps show up on the market (e.g. tapatalk pro), Barnacle and Titanium Backup work fine (looks like the phone is rooted properly) and the phone displays the following:

Model Number: X10a

Firmware Version: 1.6

Baseband Version: 1.1.27

Kernel Version: 2.6.29-rel

Build Number: R2BA023

I'm on "3 Australia" and 3G, WiFi and MMS seem to be working properly. Any ideas?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] matin_sb:
thats the problem the phone is not getting on which does not allow me to enable USB debugging....
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
If your phone doesn't turn on (start up fully), it means that step1 wasn't successful.

Does it get to the yellow triangle with an exclamation mark, or not turn on at all?

If your phone reaches the yellow triangle stage, then re-flash an older firmware, like R1FA016, with the flash tool or omnius (It should work...), and continue the original rooting process, finally updating it to R2BA024 afterwards.

If you mean that the phone doesn't turn on at all, then its a hardware problem, so maybe you should speak to sony ericsson or your operator/carrier about it.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Dmaxon:
Hi, I'm having the same problem where I can only reach the triangle.

And if i want to re-flash with flash tool or omnius I'm gonna need a device id right?

The problem is that I don't have one in the registry... what now?

Can't I boot my phone in some kind of safe mode to get a device id or am I screwed?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Herr Noobien:
Same, I'm getting yellow triangle as well...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mattiL:
Install SEUS and (or) PC Companion, do an update with one of these programs.

This will write the device ID in the registry.

If it is possible, you should do a complete flashing with SEUS to make sure your phone is OK (which it likely is).
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Herr Noobien:
I tried SEUS and it doesn't give me the option to install. I'm downloading Omnius (gonna give it a crack)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Dmaxon:
okay thanks, seus is what was needed to get the device id to my registry. thanks.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Herr Noobien:
How are you flashing using Omnius? Would the shipped roms from Jerpelea's thread work? I'm pretty freaked out at the moment :S
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Dmaxon:
Well the problem I had was that when I tried updating my root from the R2BA023 firmware to the R2BA024 , I first used the step that was needed,but in the middle of that step i was supposed to put my phone in flash mode and "press any key" to make it work.

I forgot that I had formatted my pc since i did my last root so the device id was not the same as before. I installed SEUS and tried to update but it said that I already had the latest firmware but after that , I checked the registry for my device id and I found out it was not the same as before , so I just changed the devideID.txt file and it all worked fine with flash tool.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Herr Noobien:
I have the same problem as you mate. I also tried updating my root from the R2BA023 firmware to the R2BA024 firmware. Before I put my phone in flashmode, it started up and gave me the yellow triangle. Any ideas as to what I should do? I still have my DeviceID and everything.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Dmaxon:
ok so first of all, start the "step2.bat" file , it will say some thing like device not found like 4 times, then it says "put your experia x10 in flash mode and connect" & "press any key to continue" , so what you do is , put your phone in flash mode (hold the back key while you put your phone into the usb of your computer) , then press any key. phone should be in flash mode before you press any key.

what happens next?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Herr Noobien:
Gives me a bunch of lines that pretty much tell me it can't find my deviceID. I tried SEUS and I copied the new DeviceID...same thing. I'm currently flashing R1FA014 using omnius. Wish me luck.

EDIT: Works. I now have rogers firmware O_o
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] matin_sb:
Yes it does not turn on atall...

even i am thinking of a hardware problem but whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

also step1 seems to get done very well as i get the message to press any key to continue!

i am thinking of sending it to SE :(
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mr.vercetti:
Wait a minute, this is a bit confusing... does your phone turn it on???

Or when you press the power button it doesn't do nothing.

If your phone DOESN'T TURN IT ON at all, then its a hardware problem... if your phone TURN ON but you get exclamation point or something else then you can try to recover using flash tool or omnius. or maybe SEUS.

Cause you said it doesn't turn on but then you said you're doing the steps for recover, for doing this your phone must be turned on.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MarylandCookie:
OK.. i think there is a missing step which should have been noted but i will add here...

When you try to root using the latest 024 to 026 make sure your handset is switched on with debugging mode enabled and then run update_24_26.cmd.

NOTE: Make sure it has successfully transfered build.prop!!

then

and only then do as it says on the command prompt:

"please connect Xperia in flash mode" at which point you switch off the phone and connect it to your laptop/pc in flash mode and press any key to continue.
