So is it possible to load 2.1 or 2.2 on X10 now?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] unknown13x:
No, its not possible yet to port cooked roms, so no 2.1 or 2.2 for a while. We can only modify the current versions through OS root.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] xd4d3v:
guys, I messed up and deleted my apps directory on the SDcard so I can't get mediascape back.

Can someone post the following files, please?

/sdcard/apps/mediascape.apk and /sdcard/apps/mediascape.odex

appreciated.

since custom roms are still not possible ..

is there anyway to add ORKUT to timescape ? so that people who are on it and use it majorly can get the updates ?

just a thought though..

Isn't v2 the last version?

Why so many questions?

You should pay attention to the important things ... as using step 3 with the X10 files.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] phanquangkhanh:
I rooted my x10i with the Step4 v2. However, the headphone still has problem. Sometime it worked but sometime not.

any advice ?

really need your helps.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] leobg:
Restart your computer and run it again. It happened to me too. The reason seems to be ADB driver - it didn't pick up right after it was installed without reboot.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Mobzter:
Im havin the exact same headset issue.. apparently the first page of this thread has a solution but I have no idea how to go about it (yet)

hopefully someone can point us in the right direction!!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] leobg:
Do step 1 then factory reset then step 2 then step 3a then step 4v2. I have X10a from Rogers and rooted it fine.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] leobg:
Does somebody have original android keyboard apk handy? Or if somebody can tell me how to enter this character: ` on the HTC IME?

edit:I saw the apk is saved in /sdcard/apps (LatinIME.apk/odex and the tutorial apk). Copied them back to /system/app and now have the ability to chose between HTC and the default android ime. HTC one works way better than the default one though!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bluemoko:
Great work guys ^ ^ I've try and it work perfecly on my X10a.

Will the new step4v3 add "apns-conf.xml"?

so we don't have to put our APN manually
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] xeviro:
sorry. its in step4v2, check on 1st page on this thread.

trust me, you don't want to root using early step3 and step4.

that one does not have superuser.apk, and may have bug related to music being played through speaker even though you had your headset plugged in.

thanks
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] fjnty5:
jerp i cant find the links to step4ver3 or step 5.. have they been posted?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] fjnty5:
just copy whats inside those quotation marks, do not copy the quotation marks. and make sure that back slash is at the end so it should look like this when your trying to find your id

Search ---> USB\Vid_0fce&Pid_adde\ dont add any spaces before or after that backslash

should work :D

I'm going to go ahead and ask 2 stupid noob questions, so I am ready for some flaming, but also I would be really grateful if I found some answers among it! :p

1. Does the whole flashing thing will wipe all my data?

2. In what software version my phone will run after rooting?

Thanks!

For the next versions, please could you remove this ugly blue theme in all the menus ???

has anyone tried porting out (if possible) the mediascape and timescape from the the new R2 firmware and sticking it in this rooted FW?

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mattiL:
Things that needs to be done to smoothen the rooting:

Install Sun Java JRE 32-bit version (32-bit on W7 x64 too)

Install and run SEUS once, this will register your phone in windows registry so it can be found in the registry editor.

Search for the string or browse to registry key "COMPUTER\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\USB\VID_0FCE&PID_ADDE\"

I noticed a strange version on my phone, B2FA020. Guess somebody was a bit quick..
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rosco16:
mattiL

Can you upload mediascape.apk files ?

cheers
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] thermoska:
I have same feeling too :);)

but if you want to correct it just open in notepad file \path\to\your\step4v2\directory\sys and modify it to name what ever you want ,

line 4 :

ro.build.display.id=B2FA020

4 - 5 - 6 i suppose.

But if you already put back some deleted apps, edit the cleanup.sh from step 4 ;)

4 adds new apps, 5 supposed to clean scrap better, and 6 is a new feature.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] brunswick000:
Ya im a little confused about the new steps in V3. If we have root with Step4 V2 Do we have to start again from step 1 and complete the whole process again as there are new files and fixes to the step1 folder? Im assuming so.

Guess we'll have to get used to this process now that root is achieved as changes will be happening all the time.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bcool15:
what abt x10a

not that it matters alot but it does little :)

EDIT: SOLVED i changed it in default.prop
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dan-htc-touch:
only thing of any interest if you like where you are at with root now, is the build.prop and default.prop, will make your device info say you have an x10i. also, step6 might have some coolness in it, but I dunno, as I have not tried :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bcool15:
it doesnt take long from step one now does it..but no i dnt think u have to go from step 1

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] brunswick000:
In the changelog post for V3 at step 4 it says:

moved all cleanup to Step5 - now you have an full rooted rom

adds missing file for step 1 (copy it into step1 folder)

updates step4 (clean root) (copy it into step1 folder)

adds step5 junk cleanup (replace existing folder with new one)

adds step6 rom customisation !! default rom is black

this confuses me a bit. Sounds like we are supposed to put something from step 4 into step 1 folder??

And for step 5, 6 im assuming we just run the "runme.cmd" like in step 4 with the phone on and still in usb debugging mode?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] gr3yh0und:

You need to be more specific.

Is it switched on? Is USB Debugging "enabled"? Does it ask you for the drivers?

If so download the SE ADB Drivers here and point it to these when it asks for them.

If your not getting a notification of Android ADB when you plug in your USB then most likely your computer has detected your phone but as a portable device and as a storage device.

First download USBDeview - Here

Unzip it

Run USBDeview.exe as Administrator

You will see all drivers being used on your computer

Highlight and Uninstall all drivers which have Android within their description (could be 2 or 3)

Right Click on the driver and press uninstall

Once done, Unplug your phone and plug it back in

You should now get the notification of the ADB device

Follow the steps above to install the drivers.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] jerpelea:
if is done right

from step 1

you will have instead of mediascape

android music player

butttttt no mediascape no music player timescape ( with no face or twitter )

If you want to use mediscape simply edit the cleanup.sh in step5 dir. Delete the lines with mediascape. Then it will not delete the mediscape app.

As my second post here, since 2008, lol, I must congrat all the dev team on X10 root achievement.

My root process went all good with Step4 V2 and no need to do any tweaks or magic or whatever :P

What I just don´t get is people complaining that we don´t have this, we don´t have that and all that yadda yadda thing...

Geez... why people can´t be just grateful for the heck of a job the guys did... They gave us a hand and some people just want the whole arm. WTF?

Sorry to post this here, but some people just need to reflect on themselves...

Just my 2 cents...

"do a restore factory settings, run step 4 and 5 again, but not 6. That seems to have sorted my market problem."

I just did a fresh root of my X10i, thinking it might be a problem with step 6, so i decided to miss out step 6 this time. Same thing with the market again. I did the same as before, factory data reset, step 4, step 5, then it worked. I'm wondering if a factory reset after doing step 3 will cure the problem?
