Ok so rooting went fine (i think) but every application that required root access gives me errors saying I DON'T have root access... Any idea why?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] certomaz:
SYNLAR thank you man, it was so easy following your steps... in the original tread i didn't get what i must do at all... the steps was like - step 3 - run step 3... OMG...

thank you again man, thank you big time :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] astric:
Before I go on, I just want to say thank you for posting the instructions. It makes understanding the process of rooting a lot easier then the original post.

For Rogers users or someone who can answer this that has a x10a, did you ever have to refer to this step (posted below) that was posted in the original thread or should i just disregard it and follow what synlar wrote?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] strix75:
I made it i have ROOT!!!!!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Keegan_P:
I think you should include that you must also include to install PC companion, to install some necessary drivers.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] synlar:
No difference, since I included the link to that file in my guide :)

I'll try keeping the guide as up-to-date as I can with improvements/fixes the devs release.

Thanks, but do you think they're necessary? I thought the ones by SEUS are needed... or maybe they're the same drivers? I didn't install PC companion.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Keegan_P:
I had to have PC Companion to run Step2.cmd, I don't know why I had to and you didn't. Otherwise I would get the device not found error.

EDIT: I needed both SEUS and :-) PC Companion
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mackdaddy187:
Your original guide worked well for me. I am on Rogers and I had the drivers from SEUS. It is probably the same thing.

Just have a question. What does a ROM do? There is all this talk about ROM development blah blah. But I don't get it. And I can't seem to delete stupid moxier stuff.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] synlar:
Thanks, I'm glad it helped.

ROM is like everything the phone is running on, so currently the SE version of android (called Rachel UI). The bootloader needs to be hacked, before we can make a custom ROM. That would allow us to customize things further, and maybe even create one from scratch, using android 2.2 (froyo). That's my understanding of it.

I'm sorry to hear that about moxier :/

Try this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=714021

Hopefully you get that crap removed!

Also a phone restart may help

thanks SYNLAR .

my root works on the 1st try . and definately the guide you gave is simple and clear. big thanks to you !
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] genuinereyon:
So after I have tried everything from top to bottom, still no go.

Unable to find Jarfile so its obviously a Java problem though I have uninstalled and reinstalled 32bit and 64 bit versions multiple times.

Also in Step 1 it says to open 'step 1.cmd'....well it opens for a split second then closes but I go into Step 1 folder and hit 'x10flash.bat'

Im on Win7 ULT, use the same USB port everytime, I have the o2 ...20 flashed atm.

Any ideas?

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mackdaddy187:
Thank you once again. I tried to take the apps out and in command prompt it was always telling me the no such file exists. And then all of a sudden my screen went blank except for the notification bar. So I reflashed the phone using your updated guide and came across titanium backup. What a useful tool.

Thank you.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] SXUsr:
Hi.

I've just bought an Xperia X10i, which was a T-Mobile handset and had firmware version R1FA014. I took to the net as soon as I got it home with the aim of debranding it, and followed this guide - forums.se-nse.net/topic/49076-sony-ericsson-xperia-x10-debranding-tutorial/? to step 5.

So I ran the "repair" option which went fine, but when that had completed and I tried steps 6 to 13, the first problem I encountered was the files in my db folder were totally different to the screen shot in the guide. I put them in size order anyway and renamed the two files and copied and replaced them, and tried running the update again, but it came up with an error about my internet connection (even though it was fine), so wouldn't run again.

Having checked the phone I noticed it had updated to firmware version R2BA023, so thought the debranding had been successful, until I was laid in bed setting the alarm to discover I still had T-Mobile tones and a T-Mobile homepage.

So after googling tonight, I've discovered "rooting", if someone could please explain what that actually is it would be much appreciated, as googling only leads me to guides on how to do it, but not what it actually is, and I have a couple of questions I hope someone can answer for me about the guide in this thread...

1. Are the files in the first post all I require or are there newer ones I should download?

2. I have downloaded SEUS, but I deleted the db folder for SEPCC whilst attempting to get the the steps in the first guide to work, should I uninstall and reinstall SEPPC before attempting the steps in this guide?

3. Is the "market fix" actually required after following this guide?

4. Some people have mentioned they have had issues trying the steps in this guide, is that mainly due to user error or is there a chance that it doesn't always work the first time?

I apologise for the long post, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] synlar:
Rooting gives 'superuser' access to your phone. For example, right now, you can't access the system directory or root directory in the phone. Root gives you access to all the 'protected' files on your phone. Certain applications take advantage of this, to tweak certain things, so need root access (such as setCPU, which you can set the range of CPU speeds the phone runs at, depending on what it's doing, such as making it run slower when the screen's off or when the battery's almost dead to save battery life)

Yes.

I guess see if it works the way it is now; if not, try uninstalling/reinstalling?

No, is not 'needed' but because of region restrictions or things, some apps in the market that you see now, may not be seen after rooting. So if you really miss them, then you can do the 'market fix' any time.

Yes and Yes.

Yes.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] SXUsr:
Thanks for the reply synlar, I decided to reinstall SEPCC just to be safe, so I'm going to follow the steps in this guide now, I'll post back shortly to let you know how it went.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] SXUsr:
UPDATE:

Apart from the Java issues which were pretty easy to sort, all has gone smoothly and I'm now running "rooted" Generic X10i R2BA023 firmware. :)

Thanks for answering the questions and this excellent guide!!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] SXUsr:
Well I've had a bit of a learning curve today, as I'm about to do this procedure for the third time today as I've cocked one or two things up trying to delete apps. EDIT: Maybe this third time I'll try step 7.:o

I have formated the SD-card since the last try.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] sadams39:
You're correct in saying that the only difference on the users side is x10a is Android but there is also backend features that are different; for instance the baseband, due to the fact that the 3G frequencies are different than those used on the x10i.

:)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] kazbobo:
am sure its on

so what can i do !!!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dan-htc-touch:
you need to unmount your card from the pc, and let android have access back :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] lawless_benji:
nice and easy steps to follow!! no problems.... except for step 3.

im having the same problems as kazbobo.

it shows, no device found. debugging is definately activated.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] astric:
Thanks Synlar. After a few glitches (which I expected) I was able to root my phone last night. In the process though, I ran into the problem of getting Titanium Backup to check my root status, yet it failed.

I know for a fact that when i checked my phone, it was rooted with the R2BA023 build and the correct model number (x10a).

Any thoughts about that?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Keegan_P:
Do you have superuser installed?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] astric:
Yep i do. Though when i Run Titanium Backup, I don't get anything pop up on superuser? Could I have rooted it incorrectly?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Keegan_P:
Maybe, try rooting again I guess.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Mobzter:
What does your busybox app say? If it says your rooted try the following..

See if superuser app is there, maybe you just need to restart the phone and open titanium n c wat happens.

Or if you don't have it, instal it

http://db.tt/RMKbtQ

If you do have it try reinstall over it n give it a try.

If nothing works then just do the rooting phase! If your on x10i you should only need to do step2/step3 can't exactly remember which 1 it was!

hope it comes to some use!!

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] RumpleStealthSkin:
First of all... SUCCESSS!!! Finally got mine rooted!

Big thanks to synlar for the detailed instructions and to all the helpful posts in this thread.

Just wanna share this to kleebod:

I ran into the same problem because of one instruction which I misunderstood. In #6, when I saw the line:

"Do not mount the SD card! If you mounted it, unmount it.", I actually removed the SD card instead of leaving it in the slot. Put the SD card back in, the USB connection will pop up... select Don't mount. Step 2 should work from there.

I had some issues on step 6 where I was suppose to "unmount" the SD card; I actually went to the settings to unmount the SD card but eventually I realized that I'm suppose to do this from the Notifications bar :) Awesome guide by the way. My phone is now officialy rooted!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Jikenda:
Hey, I just went through the root procedure and everything went well, but one small problem. Somehow, when i restarted the phone and went to enter my info to setup google on my phone, there is no input method listed anymore (in other words, I have no keyboard on the phone to type anything anymore). Is there a quick fix for this or can I install one from the SD card or from my PC somehow? I can't use the market app because I didn't get to type in my google id..

any help would be appreciated...I'm sure I must've removed the app somehow without knowing.

By the way, great write-up and thank you.

Nevermind. I found the thread about installing the HTC keyboard, so I'm good now
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] kyrotech:

I still get this on running step2, I have tried this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7003121&postcount=1122

Installed PC companion, check that it is not an unknown device in device manager, have checked there is only one entry under Vid_0fce&Pid_adde, have checked that debugging mode is on, copied the device ID.txt into the step 2 folder.

great guide, it worked for me but it's showing that I'm on R2BA023 and I need to know if I can upgrade to 26 via SeUS. I'm in Canada using an unlocked rogers x10a on Fido.

Thanks in advance.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] synlar:
I think you might have updated, so you lost the root.

Try starting back from step 1 :(
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] synlar:
Hi, thanks.

To be honest, I purposely left this guide to be at R2BA023, even though in the official thread they have ways to update to 026. I'm not sure of enough benefits for 026, and some people had some issues, so I left my X10 at 023, and I don't want to make a guide for something I personally haven't tried.

Don't update via SEUS, it will remove your root.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] naz78:
Thanks again, stupid question though, the post says update rooted 24 to 26, I'm guessing it works for 23 to 26?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] conorb101:
Quick question to synlar. I've an X10i running R2BA020, is it fine to follow your guide to root my phone and is there anything I need to check on my pc before I get started? I've a NC10 netbook on running XP.

What is the difference between your guide and the main one?

Thanks dude, very well laid guide.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] synlar:
ahhh sorry, jerpelea must've edited his post. He had a link for updating 23 to 24, then 24 to 26 I think. I don't think it'd work for 23 to 26, so don't touch it, I suggest you just leave it as 23 then. Otherwise, maybe you can follow the original root guide by bin4ry to get to 24, then use jerpelea's file to update to 26.

Thanks,

The main guide is more recent than this one; the main one will get you to 024 firmware, while this one gets you to 023. Anything to check on your pc should be addressed in either guide.

This worked perfectly for me on my X10i. I don't know if my market was working, I followed the fix right away. It is working now.

Its looks easy enough from the above - but is it?

How easy can it be reversed?

Will the look of the phone change much (i.e. slide up/down menu's etc)

Will more apps be availble through the market if i go to android 2.2

What are the main advantages of going to 2.2

Are there any disadvantages?

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] synlar:
It's easy to do. I was in the same boat as you, and decided to root my phone.

There's some guides somewhere on reverting back to stock I think.

Look won't change, and it doesn't give you 2.2 (yet)

Disadvantage: wipes your phone of its data (your SD card stays fine, so backup everything to SD card!), and voids warranty (so if phone's working fine already, you prolly won't need the warranty?)

I'm sorry I've kept this guide at 023, but for 026 firmware, follow the 2/3-step root from the official thread I guess.

Yeah I think so... but after following this thread, or the official 2/3-step root thread, you won't need to upgrade with SEUS; just follow these forums and you should be kept up-to-date. I suggest you follow either this guide or the official one to get newer firmware, then wait until sony ericsson releases 2.1.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] olafski72:
Sorry for this noob question, but just to be sure, since I read all kind of different stories:

When I root my X10, can I have a native Google Android phone, so without any SE stuff on it and integrated on it? And can I than upgrade to 2.1 or 2.2 or am I still dependent of SE?

Can't I pretend my phone is native, like a Nexus One, and have all the updates from Google directly?
