[XPERIA X10 General] xGary:
Well it was rooted and I already flashed it and re rooted it. However, I have three questions

1) Should I update from the v24 to 26?

2) I have a x10a, after running step 3 my phone still says its an x10i with baseband version of 1.1.28

3) And those apps that were supposed to be installed in step 2 didnt go so well. I could install them manually with ADB right?

How do I do a full wipe? I just want to make sure I am doing it right, because I had Slideme5r1 in my MTS and tdid a wipe to install SlideMr4 I believe it is and was able to install it except my availble space is now only 87.59 mb.

Can some one guide me in the right direction?

Boot into clockwork recovery and wipe cache and factory reset

Its real simple.

I get it is a tool used to flash phones, but i would like to know...

Who made it?

Who typically uses it?

Are there versions and does it matter?

Can it be used for anything else?

Also would love some screen shots.

I am sorry for the dumb questions, but coming from the G1 i did everything from terminal on the phone and a little ADB. So seeing some new tool gives me a small panic attack. "WTF is ODIN, should i know what it is..."

Thank you

I wonder if there is a howto somewhere. I am looking for one. Trying to find an explanation of all the options there.
[Vibrant General] Vybrance:
Use this sticky for reference: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=848737

It seems like the majority of the people here use it to return their phone to its factory state (the way it was when you took it out of the box). It's really an easy program to use.Turn on the program, make sure your phone is in download mode (also covered in the sticky) and plug your it in to your pc. Point to the appropriate pit and tar (PDA) files (yes they too are in the sticky) and run. It does look a little intimidating at first, after that though it will become one of your best friends. Disable voodoo prior to odin'ing just to be safe.

or this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8235570&postcount=7

I have used odin before but always blindly followed instructions. However when I see "flash XXXX_YYY.tar" using ODIN without mentioning what options to choose I get a bit confused. The post above explains what options are for what.
[Vibrant General] Vybrance:
Thanks for the link Gill_za

I'm strictly using odin for returning my phone to stock, so I only have those two files. I also always make sure repartition is NOT checked before I click start. I ran it once accidentally with repartition checked and nothing detrimental happened (from what i could see) then i odin'd again just to put my mind at ease.

Yes. As far as I am aware any Eris is rootable using the universal method.

No, you will not be able to root using the PBIMG root ROM method. You will have to use the universal root method for HBOOT 1.49.

[Desire General] harnyuk:
as i am patiently waitin for froyo to be officially released i now have to free up space on a daily basis but i am absolutely baffled as to why my contacts storage memory is so high 9.21mb infact! here is a breakdown

sim: 224

google: 9

phone:241

facebook:331

does anyone if that sounds right or is there something i can do apart from obv deleting entries? many thanks
[Desire General] chichoko:
If im not mistaken, the whole facebook integration into the htc people app makes it 9mb heavy. Because it saves the contacts images for every separate contact you have.. so i guess its quite normal.. besides.. why would you even free up 9mb of space? Its not enough for anything.. just delete some of the apps you have until froyo comes out and you can throw em on the sd card..
[Desire General] r47z:
9MB only? mine's about 35mb for both FB and flickr I hate the fact that it takes up SO MUCH space. Whatever happened to cloud computing?
[Desire General] tudork:
I have 22 mega on mine, and i am not using flickr...
[Desire General] hairyman:
Mine got up to 29Mb at one point, for about 350 contacts total. I cleared out the cache & reinstated them and now its steady at 6.5 Mb with exactly the same contacts, pics & details. I guess that somehow there is the capacity for the contact storage to bloat.
[Desire General] harnyuk:
Which cache did you clean out I might give that a go
[Desire General] harnyuk:
Omg that's crazy guess I'm just being picky. Just wanna try out a few new apps without uninstalling anything for once lol
[Desire General] chichoko:
Noob q incoming.. how do i see how much space my contacts are consuming? I can swear i saw it once but i dont remember now..
[Desire General] MihneaM:
I think I found a solution. It may not be so elegant, but it works:

Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All > Contacts Storage > Clear Data.

I always sync my contacts with Google, so after it cleared everything (including call logs) it just started downloading everything again. ~1000 contacts occupied 48MB before, now they're just over 3MB (but in all fairness, the Facebook photos are still downloading) - still a big difference.

The thing is that I had been waiting for the official Froyo update to supposedly fix everything - well now I have it, but most of the apps on the Market haven't been set by their developers to allow installation to the SD card anyway, so it's really the same thing as before...
[General Questions and Answers] rumpleforeskin:
Over the last few years it has become quite fashionable for people (especially alot of tech websites) to bash windows mobile even if they have very little experiance with it, more so since the iphone came on the scene. yet most people who play with my device (HD2 running NRG rom and maxsense) have very positive feedback. So although winmo is capable it seems it not very marketable

Thus no matter how good some of the projects at XDA have turned out winmo is on the way out, and android is on the way in.

But i dont feel im done with winmo yet, i have mustered alot of software since my 1st winmo device (HTC e200) and invested alot of time learning its intricacies, i dont yet feel ready to make the jump to a different OS when there still seems to be so much going on in the winmo world, but at the same time im eager for some new hardware.

But soon my contract will be up for renewal and there seems to be no more highend winmo devices insight, is the HD2 the last highend winmo device?

There is alot of hype surrounding the windows phone 7 but for me this seems too much like jumping on the Iphone bandwagon and the complete opposite of what i want from a device. Sure i like an easy to use interface, but comprimising functionality for it is too high a price.

[Captivate General] musugu:
Hi,

I am a heavy user of WebEx and used to clicking on links in the content of the calendar to get connected to the meeting.

Looks like we have the problem with Captivates calendar. I don't see any Links high-lighted and click-able. I tried to use touchdown demo version and that also has the same problem.

Normally all phone numbers and links including http, https, ftp and email are usually highlighted and you should be able to click on it and the respective action takes place.

I compared that with EVO and Droid and they both have hyperlinks and just not the Captivate.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
It is a defect in the Samsung implementation. Phone numbers are not clickable either.

I encourage you contact Samsung, the more of us that do, the more likely it gets fixed. I hope we don't have to wait for stock 2.2.

Have you tried RoadSync?
[Captivate General] asrrin29:
Is this just the calendar you are referring to, or everything? because I can click on numbers, even though they are NOT underlined like a hyperlink. I will have to check on my calendar though.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
Calendar defect. Try it.
[Captivate General] musugu:
Its not only a defect in native calendar but also touchdown and one another application I tried.

I tried roadsync like you suggested and it does show all the hyperlinks like it is supposed to show. I am very impressed with roadsync and it has all the features of touchdown and even better interface etc.

I was able to login into WebEx using the hyperlink and was able to join the call and also browse the shared content...Awesome..

All I need now is some widgets for roadsync calender and email and tasks.

Thanks for your help. Really appreciated..

i like the look of the eris..dont mind rooting..but especially want something that runs faster and smoother..anyone recommend anything like this?..i want to overclock it...but being a noob to this..i get confused in the root rom overclock flash conversation..i've been reading a lot of boards and a lot of google searches...till my head starts to spin...

thank you (and sorry if i go against board rules etc)
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rougegoat:
I suggest EvilEris. It's 2.1 and sense based, so it's not too much different from what you're used to.

as for overclocking, buy SetCPU from the app market(I suggest buying instead of other means because these guys did good work and deserve compensation for it). The only things you really need to know is to make two specific profiles: One for charging/full that goes to about 710MHz(there's a slide bar in it to make this easier) and one that turns on when the screen is off(this can be picked from a drop down box in the profile maker) that has a max speed of like 245MHZ. This will help optimize your battery life. It's a fairly easy app to use also, so you'll get the hang of it pretty quickly.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giggz41:
thank you!..i was looking at evil eris..dont like the red..but its one that a lot of people spoke highly of...

If you don't like the red from evil eris then I suggest senseable 3.1. Also sense based and very well spoken of also. Currently what I use and is my favorite.

As stated before setcpu is good for overclocking. You can download for free from these forums (search for it). And as always if you like it, its always nice to donate by buying the app from the market

If you already rooted, you don't need to do it again. When changing ROMs, all you need to do is wipe factory reset, and cache, and nand backup, and then flash your new ROM (zip file).

Plus for some reason froyo roms drain my battery like is going out of style. I'm talking I had a full charge, had data wifi bluetooth etc. off. No setcpu either. I had also calibrated the battery.

It's probably because Froyo roms are OC'ed to 710 already. You need setcpu and create profiles to minimize battery drain.

I had profiles set. Didn't help any. I put the same profiles on senseable (oc'd to 710) and battery life is much better. I was doing some wireless tethering today for over an hour and had less drain than doing nothing with froyo.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lostpilot28:
I'm wondering why more people aren't using Froyo-based ROMs? With my Eris, I'm more function over form, but I do like things to look great, too.

The first ROM I installed after rooting was Ivan's...it wasn't much different than Verizon's stock ROM, but it sure seemed faster. Far less slow-downs. Then I tried PlainJaneT2 and my phone ran slow after awhile, like before I rooted. So, back to Ivan's. I'm too busy to "experiment" with different ROMs, so I tend to stick with what works until I have more time.

I really want speed, but not at the cost of stability. Are the Froyo ROMs really that far from stable? How much faster are they, really? Or, what's the main benefit to going with them instead of sticking with 2.1 based ROMs?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donghunglong:
Sense-Able 3.1 has been the most stable for me. I had problems with every other rom. Plus my battery lasts for 3+ days with it. That includes calls, browsing, texting, etc... Its a severely underrated rom.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orkillakilla:
I agree. Everyone is all in the hype about froyo right now. I won't use it till they get the major bugs fixed (camera and battery life for me. For some reason my battery hates froyo roms). Senseable is ultra fast, great battery life, awesome look. Its my everyday rom. I'm yet to find something I like better.

A few blog and newspaper are reporting the discovery disclosed by 2 Apple hacker at blackhat conference. (if they are not apple fanboy then they sure look like they are)

http://mobile.venturebeat.com/2010/...-steals-your-data-was-downloaded-by-millions/

As much as I do care about data security and think that some people may not be careful enough about what they carry on their phone, I dislike reading such story without much proof, I truly hope Google will put an end to this by posting something about it.

The funny part is that the application made by their company (lookout) is asking for MUCH MORE right than the wallpaper they are pinpointing, I am also wondering about their genome project and I am wondering if they used that "virus scanner" to gather application info from the people who used it (that being said without any proof, just my gut feeling exactly like their theory on those wallpaper)

On a more positive side I hope this will raise some people awareness about what they install on their phone even rom's could one day get compromised but I do not think we are there yet...

So the whole point of this post is to ask all the blogger around to get back to those 2 security researcher and ask them to provide proof (source code) of the malware they found so that we can put an end to this story either way...
