[XPERIA X10 General] oXunknownXo:
Calm down :) , he already said it in the video info:

Talking about this guy, he usually gets interesting info faster than the rest of us and he posted this in his blog, it seems that there are a lot of things being clarified now(my english sucks i know lol ), i got all this info from here:

http://gadgets.apnafundaz.com/2010/...air-android-2-1-firmware-update-from-r2ba026/

There are already a few videos of Xperia X10 with Eclair, Android 2.1 Firmware ( though not final build of Android 2.1, Eclair-Beta Firmware-Update1 and Update2 ). These videos are from IFA ’10, Berlin. Sony Ericsson itself demoed the features of the New Update for Xperia X10 with Eclair-Android 2.1.

Infact, the Roadmap of Firmware Upgrades for Xperia X10 family ( including Xperia X10, X10 Mini, X10 Mini Pro and X8 ) was also leaked from IFA ’10, Berlin. The leaked map also disclosed the main features that would be added in this update! And if speculated it also suggested that Xperia X10 might not get any further updates to Froyo or Gingerbread!

To sum up the Changelog of the Android 2.1, Eclair Update for Xperia X10, through Official and un-official sources, here it goes!

Un-official Changelog of Xperia X10 with Eclair Android 2.1 firmware from R2BA026 firmware

- System font is different to what it is now! ( See the screenshot above! )

The changelog is pretty much un-official and would post the official Changelog once it is available! So, watch out for this space!

Extension of Timescape themes is still a rumor and i’ve not got any confirmation about it! But looking closely at the two videos of Xperia X10, themes extension would sound real to you!

- Xperia X10 with Android 2.1-Eclair Firmware first real preview at IFA

- Eclair on Xperia X10-Video review with feature demo-HD Video with Continous Autofocus, Live Wallpapers, HTML5 and Social Phonebook

In the above two videos look at the Phonebook and Launcher Menu. Both have different backgrounds. Two different shades of blue similar to the two Timescapes Blue themes-Default Blue and Dark Grunge Blue! Heres the screenshot comparison,

Original Default Blue

Dark Blue ( like Timescape Theme )

This so so matches with the two Blue Timescape Themes!

The question about upgrade to 16m colors is 100% confirmed as it’s from someone who has personally tried it. The colors were much smoother, sharper and vibrant with no gradients visible. :) So, even if Sony Ericsson has nothing to say about it yet, we can conform that the resolution of Xperia X10 has been upgraded to 16m colors from 64k colors.

The In-call Volume couldn’t be checked so, it can not be yet confirmed if Sony Ericsson fixed the In-call Volume issue with the Android 2.1-Eclair Firmware Update for Xperia X10.

Any further question is really appreciated and please feel free to ask them in the comments section! There are so many changes to the current Android 1.6, Donut Firmware build of Xperia X10, so i might have missed many a things. Do ask about where you wanted your Xperia X10 to change with the update or any error that needed to be fixed and i’ll let you know if Sony Ericsson implemented that change or not!

As this image shows, there is no 65000 colors here, no gradients at all:
