Yeah, im gettin really good battery from my 023 root also.

I tested, and turned on wifi, bluetooth and GPS for 1 hour. The battery % didnt move a single step! I had 82% before the "experiment" and 1 hour later, still 82% !:) So im very pleased with the battery time!

So, no way to update from the R2BA020 rooted fw ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] damirbusic:
Where are links to 023 ROM on the first page ? I want to make 023 rooted on my phone and dont know how. If I will use Omnius then I dont need to find that Device-ID number, just connect it and flash the ROM with Omnius ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] superleeds27:
I flashed back to R1FA016 Using SEUS.

Didn't need to change DeviceID or anything to root.

Suprised how easy it was!

Hello I ran the root with R2BA023 fw but I wanted to know how to remove a bit of applications such as business moxier, calendar moxier, contacts moxier, quadrapop etc.

thank's :D
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Slicka70:
Can someone help me out?

I cant even get past step one.

Im running R2BA020 on my Rogers X10a. I downloaded the rar file named XAR.rar, extracted everything and put my device ID (After finding through it with regedit) under every folder (Steps 1-4).

When I click step one I turn off phone and remove battery, reinsert battery, plug in phone holding the back button and click next to proceed on the command prompt. The only thing I can make out is "unable to open channel" and phone boots back up.

I check and I am still at my original software.

Can someone please give me a step by step of what to do when exactly?

Thanks.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] piero79:
your device id you have to enter only step1 and step3 folder with x10 connected to USB, then you open the step1 folder, and click on the file X10flash.

opens a popup window, you disconnect the USB cable from the x10 and remove the battery.

Put the battery while holding the back button connect the usb cable ..... when you see LED lights up green press enter on pc .... :-))

Someone I can tell because when I search an application in the market, is not available and when I put the firmware version if I find American r14.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] -=SrgiO=-:
maybe...

Have you installed before any product of SE for x10? (SEUS, Company...)

This will install the necessary drivers.

Good Luck!

Ok I have an issue here. I did post this in the issues forum. Im trying to root with lastest version Root_F2v2. Im coming from Root_F2v1 and my phone will only go into flash mode for step one if I do a hard reset, and then I get errors. If I just power down and try it will not enter flash mode and will turn itself back on, even if it is not plugged into usb. So basically my phone will not turn off. Anyone else have an issue like this? Not from what ive been reading here :confused:
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MarylandCookie:
^Switch your phone off...

Remove battery

Hold down power button with battery removed for atleast 3-5secs

Re-Insert battery and try flashing again.

root question

Hello, i just updated my x10i with R2BA020.

if i want to update to R2BA023? do i have to take all the steps again, or can i start from step 2 or 3?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] shanhanif:
You need to start from Step 1 again.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] shanhanif:
Hey guys i have rooted my pfone and have been able to remove moxier and a couple of other things. I can install some apps that require root e.g busybox says root fine. The only thing is Titanium Backup says roos access failed and makes me download the version of busy box they say will work but the root access still fails. Is there some other setting that nees chnaging or is it that the phone is not rooted propely even though some root only apps work and i have been able to remove some system app e.g moxier. Thank you in advance for any help or information in this matter

When I double click DeviceID I get window saying: "String index out of range: -1" and some empty window that has JAVA icon and DeviceID on it.

What the hell is that ? I have latest Java, downloaded today...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] brunswick000:
Well all done latest R2BA023 root with X10a and im impressed so far. Definet improvement in in-call volume. 3g drops from time to time but other than that id say its the cats ass. Removed a bunch of apps too. Finally i am satisfied with this phone. Thanks again to all the devs who are working so hard to keep improving things. Cant wait for some custom roms though :-)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Octanum:
What exactly do steps 4 and 5 do? I still have baseband 1.1.25, and from what I see, that is for the x10i. The only difference I've noticed is that it says x10a as the model.

Also, how am I using 3G if my baseband is for the x10i? I thought it wasn't supposed to work.

I honestly see no advantage to running steps 4 and 5 if all they do is change the model...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Paraflax:
A changelog would be nice. I have R2BA020, and it would be nice knowing if it's worth and update. Please add a changelog to the first post =D
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dan-htc-touch:
step4 is the baseband, step5 is the model, the baseband numberiing in about is derived from stuff in /system, you can flash baseband till you are blue in the face, and it will always display 1.1.25

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bongd:
I'm using an X10a from Rogers Canada and I've just flashed the rooted version of R2BA023. Just hit a full charge so I'll report back on battery life. I only use APNDroid while at work because Edge/G3 is right on the cusp and kills everyone's phones in this building.

I've been using this since late last night, and overnight it just died VERY little amounts. I just restarted my phone so we'll see what happens.

Also, just wondering if apps can be uninstalled from the phone, like the Chinese/Korean keyboard, etc. And has anyone tried SetCPU??? I want to try it after I exhaust a full charge and see how long my battery goes for. Haven't tested headphones but I will today. :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] RodneyBR:
I'm a Rogers X10a user and I rooted to R2BA023 and all is well except for the headphone jack, which is a bit of an issue for me since I use it a lot. You can stop at step 3 though and then add APN settings.

I can confirm that SetCPU works, I'm using it.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] thymus:
So there is no more problem with power-off?

My phone used to turn itself on a few seconds after i powered it off. someone mentioned it was due to bug in step 4 but i guess it's fixed now. i will try it again if you can confirm that there is no more issues. thanks.

Few questions:

Juice Defender does not work !! Just resets itself and turn it self OFF and every time it offers Setup when I enter it. And also I dont have my restored apps in Market, last time I have restored them via MyBackup PRO and they have showed in the Market after I have upgraded Facebook app and now I cannot get it back.

Also, how can I remove all those apps that came with root ? ExUninstaller and everything that I can remove, I am guessing that I cannot remove Superuser app, is that the only one that I must leave on my phone ?

Any help please ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] synlar:
click left button> settings>applications>manage applications> click on application you want to remove> uninstall
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] damirbusic:
Ok, thank you but which one should I leave because of the root stuff ? This Superuser app only ?

Can you help me with Juice Defender and Market problem ? Juice defender resets itself everytime I go on other screen, it just disables.

I think that devs should not put ANY app in this because we are all messed if we restore some apps and settings and putting those apps to install automatically is like having custom ROM and I have problems now. I thank them for their effort but I wish I could avoid this and have only apps that I have in my backup or in my Market list.

Tnx !
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] instigator008:
Juice Defender was screwed up by their latest update. Nothing to do with root afaik.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MarylandCookie:
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 or 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] rosco16:
slicka process root must be step 1 + step 2 + step 3 for x10i always.... you need all steps

What is ADB?

I downloaded USBDeview and uninstalled anything with android on it.

When I plug in my phone I get a balloon saying x10i plugged in.

I installed the drivers you posted as well.

Now while phone is plugged in and is running debug mode, I should open step 3 and it should work?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Slicka70:
Nevermind the last post, it worked and rooted properly.

I tried to do step 4 with the phone in flash mode but as soon as I hit enter it just closes the window.

Does it matter that at the stop it says your phone is rooted and will restart?

Great work, but I have a question:

I've root process for my x10i, everything is good, but I need to support the Arabic language does is available.

Also another question, after doing the process of root Can I return the old system ( orginal sonyericsson ) just for future ..
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] gfgodoy:
Well, I have root, it is all set.

I did use the step 5 on the 2v2 folder, but I guess I was wrong, so I installed the fixed step 5 with no luck. (it ran and configured my device, but no luck)

Do you guys think it's worth starting from step1 or just wait for the R2 (X10a version) to arrive?

I removed pc companion and the device drivers with the util usbview but still got the error message.

What I did was I left the phone on and ran the step 3 file. Suddenly the rooting started to occur. I now have root access. I can su and ls.

I thought you said you have the phone rooted.

You know what, don't bother with steps 4 and 5.

If you need the internet, change the APN settings manually for Rogers, they're somewhere in the forum

I had it and steps 4-5 wouldnt work. I ended up using some other step 4 from somewhere on this site and it deleted my home screen and installed some other apps.

Internet was a major reason why I decided to go back.

My phone keeps saying x10i now although its an x10a. Confusing.

I have upgraded my Rogers X10a via SEUS to the new R2 020 firmware. I will try to upload the blob files a bit later.

I was rooted with R2 023 firmware (and all the issues) and decided to try the original Rogers update. So I re-branded via Omnius (as I was away from my XP "flashing" station), then fired up SEUS. It said no update, but after I did repair, I ended up with the new firmware. Standby for the files from SEUS...
