Also, check to see that you have an app called "Superuser Permissions" (icon looks like a ninja). When you open it, there should be a list of apps that are allowed or blocked. A green dot means allowed and a red dot with a minus sign means blocked. If you've blocked an app by mistake (like Titanium Backup) then remove it from the list ("Forget"). If all you get is a black screen, then that just means that the list is empty. If an app isn't on the list and requests root access, you should get a popup (with the ninja icon) asking you to give it permission. If you check "Remember", it puts it in the allow list.

If you don't have "Superuser Permissions" and su doesn't work, then step3 may not have worked. Did you start from step1? After step2, is your firmware version R2BA023 (or R2BA020 if you used the old files)?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] leslie222:
Thanks so much guys. I do have the updated firmware but when i open superuser i get only a black screen and nothing else. Something is obviously wrong:-( I did the process twice so cant seem to fathom what is wrong.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] leslie222:
Thanks a million.....I think i got it. I ran step 3 again ...it said already installed for everything, restarted the phone and the first thing i saw was titanium backup asking for root access....Thank you for all your help. Great people to bother at all.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] leslie222:
One more question. When our geniuses get through the boot loader and have a custom rom , will we need to go through the process again or simply be able to flash the new Rom like in wm ???
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] newalopez:
Hello there ;), first than all, thanks for the great topic! helped me a lot, I'm just suffering with a small problem, when I need to create my APN for MMS, I need to change MMC field to 804, but when I do this, and press save, it deletes it... it's there other way to modify this field?

Regards.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dan-htc-touch:
it deletes it because it's not an apn it wants to use, had this issue with rogers in the past, if it shows up in the list, and says it's working, don't change it. are you actually having issues sending/recieving mms with the settings that are visible?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] newalopez:
no I don't have any configuration, still I don't have auto-configuration, I write myself all the details about Internet and MMS, then after the rooted, I wanted to create the two apns, and the MMS one can't be created, If I do it with mmc 704, everything ok, still I can't receive mms, so I need 804 as the original configuration from my carrier was...

NAME: MMS Claro Guatemala

apn: mms.ideasclaro

mmsc: http mms.ideasclaro.com 8002 (not complete because of rules)

mms proxy: 216.230.133.066

mms port: 8080

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dan-htc-touch:
Name: CLARO

APN: internet.ideasclaro.com.do

MMS Port: 8080

found these settings on another site, maybee try some variations?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] newalopez:
already learn how to modify the file directly (apns-config.xml), but still I do, but Is not reflected on my setting, after rebooting, does someone knows where exactly is the file in / system / apns-config.xml for instance?

do you have an example of the format supported?

REgards.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] newalopez:
thanks for your answer, here's the deal, 2 configurations.

1. -> I can save and use. :)

NAME: Internet CLARO GT

APN: internet.ideasclaro

no proxy, port, user, password, server, mmsc, mms proxy, mms port

mcc=704

MNC=01

apn type: default, supl

2. -> I can save, if, and only IF, I set mcc to 704, if I use 804 as I need to use, then it's deleted from the list when I press 'save'

NAME: MMS Claro Guatemala

apn: mms.ideasclaro

I have a question

The title says R2BA023, though the file for step 1 is called i_R1FA016_ft.rar

I have R2BA020.

Will this cause any problems, or do I just use the i_R1FA016_ft.rar anyway?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ronniecross:
For step 2 it says go to the step 2 folder and run RunMe.cmd

but there is no RunMe.cmd in the step 2 folder, just:

adb

adbWinApi.dll

AdbWinUsbApi.dll

fota.pkg
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] leslie222:
@ronniecross : Just use the step2.cmd file outside the step2 folder. Worked fine for me:-) cheers..... Go for it...its a lovely piece of work and no problems:)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] biktor_gj:
You first need to downgrade to .16 to do the rooted fota to. 023, otherwise it wont let you do the update...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mikeyxb:
when i get to step three installing the superuser.apk all that goes fine, but when i run the market fix it bricks my phone, well it restarts and the phone with the yellow triangle and ! inside it comes uo, so i had to start from the beginning again and that fixed it but i cant use the market fix on x10i it just wont work, im running a 64bit win7 machine
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] leslie222:
@mikeyxb: should not be a problem. I rooted mine on a windows 7 x64 machine. Perhaps you need to try again.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] newalopez:
dan, thanks for your attention here ;), I used the same MCC in both profiles now (704), and it works just fine, I can use MMS again... weird thing before were different 704 for internet and 804 for mms, but not important for me at the momment.

everything seems to work fine at the moment, I even have new apps versions, cool thing :) .. hope to be able to install 2.1 when is available.

Thanks again to you and the people who made possible this Update and rooting guide.

Xperia SO-01B has different pre-DeviceID

Hi, Bin4ty,

How do you do and Thank you for your efforts,

Unfortunately, Japanized Xperia X10i called SO-01B has different pre-DeviceID.

In this version, X10flash was hard-coded as "USB\Vid_0fce&Pid_adde\",

However Xperia SO-01B has:

"USB\Vid_0fce&Pid_d12e&Mi_00\" as an USB Mass strage.

"USB\Vid_0fce&Pid_d12e&Mi_01\" as a Mobile Phone.

Please soft-code pre-DeviceID same as DeviceID.

Yours,

Ken
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Grospolina:
Did you download Market-Fix.rar, Market-Fix-X10a.rar, or step5.rar? The first two are in Post #2. Market-Fix.rar is what you want (for the X10i), and you apply it after step3 (DON'T run step4).
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] biktor_gj:
D12e is mass storage for every x10

E12e is usb composite for every x10

Adde is semc boot loader for every sony ericsson phone. You need to connect it in flash mode!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mikeyxb:
it was definatly the right one for the x10i, the one that is posted in step 3, my device is rooted as i can use superuser, and su in terminal, iv retried 4 times and same happens every time
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mikeyxb:
i think i figured it out, i downloaded the files a while ago and i thought they was the new ones but its the R2BA020 and i need the 23 build dont i, will re download the files and do it again.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mcleaver:
How can I check the rooting was successful? (Barnacle says it can't su).
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Umeaboy:
Some steps in the guide on the first page doesn't really work if you don't tweek the phone a little bit.

I mean the part to see the phone & the memorycard so that you can apply all the settings.

You have to unmount & mount the phone & unmount the SD-card to be able to do the 2nd & third step. To bad this isn't mentioned in the guide. Can you update this?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Umeaboy:
Btw......why can't I use commands like adduser & mv & cp?

They ARE bash-commands to.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
Because i never wrote in the guide that you should mount the SD card or phone there is no need to write down that you should unmount it oO

cp mv etc should work out of the box.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] xKitty:
Thanx, biktor_gj,

I'll find it and try it out again.

Hi I would like to help me on something .. I have a X10A my uncle sent me the company of canada rogers, I'd like to know how to remove the entire contents of that company (applications, settings, etc) that do not use it ... I use here in Mexico TELCEL could help me?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] pimvanduijne:
hello guys,

first off i love you guys for rooting the X10 many thanks for all of y'all.

but i have a problem with de prep. if i downloaded the latest update (the one that came this week) over the air, build-number is R2BA023

does it mean i have the deviceID written in Registry. because if I try to download SEUS from the official sony ericsson webpage it says that there is no SEUS available for XPERIA X10. I just want to know i'm starting of the right foot because i have never done this before. last time i did something like this was downgrading my psp, i did that very carefully and i'm planning on doing this even more carefull :P

many thanks from holland!

btw: first post! :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Nimche:
Where I am assuming that your phone is unlocked and you are using it in Mexico. First you need to unbrand your phone and you can find some instrucion how to do that. Second, you need to root your phone to be able to remove any application from your phone which you don't like. I am not sure but you may just follow the procedure from rooting you phone and that will take care of your unbranding as well? Could someone shed a light on this.

good luck
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Grospolina:
No, that's just a bad link on the Sony Ericsson site. If you select X10 as your phone and then go to "Software Downloads", you'll find Update Service at the top and you can go to the download page from there. However, if you click about Update Service, it tells you that's it's not available for X10. At least, that's what I get.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Grospolina:
Yes, the first step flashes your firmware to X10i Generic UK R1FA016, which essentially unbrands it. And yes, even though it's X10i UK firmware, following all the steps will get you a working X10a with the R2BA023 update.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] TiestoFlight643:
thanks and I could get rid of everything from rogers and it works great on 3G phone but now another question .. MW600 bluetooth headphones I have and all good but the detail is in the display of the headset is not the name of the track or call someone who can help me with this doubt?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mcleaver:
Twice tried...

Okay - I followed the instructions to the letter on my X10i (Dutch/t-mobile).

At the end of step one I saw a couple of errors flash past:

INFO: <<<ERR_SEVERITY="NONE"; etc See the dump (1):

At the end of step 2 there were also a few errors:

(Dump 2)

ANd when it was finished - just as the first time - there's apparently no access to su.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Umeaboy:
Before doing Step 2 or Step 3 make sure you can see your SD-card in your phone before you do them.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mcleaver:
Not sure what that means - mount or don't mount (on the PC)? I was hoping to try 2 and 3 without step one. I have had to reinstall all my programs etc three times now and it's a bit of a drag. :-|

Now, without step 1, I get:

1791 KB/s (41723089 bytes in 22.748s)

"select option 6 SDCARD UPDATE"

Press any key to continue . . .
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Grospolina:
NO_ERROR means no error. ;) Actually, it always says that when it succeeds.

Your SD card is mounted on your PC, which means your phone can't access it. Unmount it from your PC before doing this step.

This seems to happen to a lot of people, even though the guide doesn't say to mount it. What I think is happening is that the PC Companion tray icon asks you to mount the phone whenever you plug it in, and it keeps nagging you if you don't, so naturally some people will mount it. The solution is to remove PC Companion from your startup. :p Or just shut down the tray icon.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] :

what have i done wrong?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ghidda:
this could mean that the flash had failed and you didn't notice the unvalid error, or that the battery is low...

FYI: Shutdown, press back button, then connect USB.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mk67:
ADW is like a desktop manager, is very easy and awesome.

Rooted device are better, quicker and more manageable because you have root access to all thing installed in this device, and surely the possibility to upgrade to better firmware.

Android 2.1 is not available yet through XDA or other because that need a specific dev project, but I eared that SE will maybe give a 2.1 upgrade for Xperia users in a very near future.

Hope, it helped you, Mister Noob.

Warm X10

Well, I managed to root the phone. Everything seems fine, but... - not sure if it was the rooting or something I installed - since then the phone is like a hand-warmer in my pocket and loses charge very quickly. In fact I can't actually get the charge up above about 1/3. Looking at the phone after being unplugged for 15 minutes, it says 37% of power went on the calendar, 30% on display, 12% on cell standby. Could it really be the calendar? Sorry if this is OT, but maybe it isn't.)

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] quedijo:
For anyone getting errors like I was for Step 1, because of issues with 32bit JAVA on 64bit systems

You don't need to do 1st.cmd and step1.cmd, infact you don't even need i_R1FA16_ft.rar

I *just* realized that all Step 1 is doing is flashing your phone to xxxxx16 Firmware through JAVA. (downgrading if you have newer) I had done this with the SEPC with these instructions:

*** Since you need apparently need the xxxxx16 firmware, you don't need to rerun the update and get xxxxx23 through SEPC (wich it never did for me anyway)***

http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=195467

After that, the following steps are through ADB, in other words JAVA is kinda useless, since you have to install SEPC anyways to get the drivers for the x10 (I believe ;-P)

Well, at least it's another way to do it, NOW I got root.

On a side note, now that I see what is going on, I would like to put out to the devs to look into what is the update to xxxxx23 firmware difference, what makes it have root? I didn't try but can't we upload fota.pkg on xxxxx23 (or anyother firmware) and start it in adb (as in step2.cmd) and upgrade from there? Is that the vulnerability of xxxxx16?

This whole process should be redone in much cleaner method...

1) Downgrade if needed

2) Push fota.pkg and run

3) Push SU and others

4) Done
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mcleaver:
Is indeed the Calendar, which is continuously syncing - I set it to sync and also restored with MyBackupPro, but then it set about deleting thousands of contacts and appointments. Sigh!

Martin
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
Hey,

this is the whole process :D

Step1 is using X10flash to downgrade step2 makes the fota and step3 adds su etc.

So thats all. The reason for using X10flash instead of SEPC or SEUS is simple. We want to be independent of SE. What would happen if we would relay on SE's Software do do step1 and goto a vuln firmware? Right: SE would have the option to stop us downgrading at everytime they want, that was the reason why we had released step1 with X10 Flash.

Because some people ad issues using X10 Flash we released the Second Package for Omnius flashing.

So i don't know whats the main Problem. But i'm actually modding the flasher a little to get a better and easier functionality (regarding to DeviceID and Driver install), but next week i have an important exam so i dont have time atm ;)

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] gibbo82:
I've noticed now that I've rooted my phone, the battery has got worse!!! :0s anyone else having this problem!?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
The root only installs su and superuser.apk + (some stuff that you can remove late if you want just like HTC_IME MOD keyboard).

So the root cannot be the badguy if you batt got worse. The bad guy is still SE for this crappy firmware!

Ah! Should of thoght about that point about SE's upper hand.

It was 2am when I finnaly got root on the X10 after 4 days of trying with JAVA and then realizeing that I had already downgraded to xxxxx16 X-P So my point in steps were bias to what I needed to do.
