You must have really been trying to apply ridiculous amounts of pressure swiping the screen.

I for one love my phone to be naked. And the Zagg shields have always been good to me. I don't understand why they would promote the "gorilla shield" if it's so easy to become scratches. Times like these I hate having a new phone and wish it were 4 months ahead so babying it would already have gotten old. :o:o
[Epic 4G General] ftnguyen1:
Somehow i managed to put a couple short but deep scratches into my phone yesterday. I pretty much baby my phone and never have the screen face down and keep it in my jean pocket with nothing else in it. What sucks even more is i had a SGP clearshield in the middle of shipping to me right now.
[Epic 4G General] drakkahn:
That really bites :(

Let me know how you like the clearshield, I almost bought it but decided to opt for the xtremeguard ebay cheapo on post 31.
[Epic 4G General] Dvin211:
Does your wife ever wear diamond earrings? Someone mentioned on another site how their epic was scratched in this way.
[Epic 4G General] drakkahn:
Nope, but I can see how that could be an issue.

She has a dedicated pocket for the phone in her purse, so not sure what happend.

It looks more like a wide smudge, so I think something else must have fallen in the pocket and rubbed the same area repeatedly.
[Epic 4G General] herzzreh:
Naked is the way to go. I sleep naked, I fuq naked, I bathe naked and I keep my Epic naked.

Not pressure, it appears that calcium in the shells is harder than our screen, that's it.
[Epic 4G General] ajac:
yeah no we got an epic with a scratch screen lol and I make fun of her about it all the time
[Epic 4G General] Masterface7:
I recommend a Boxwave Screen protector. I used my epic naked for about a month when I first got it. Then I returned it and when i got a new one I put the boxwave on becuase i wanted to try a static protector and I couldnt be happier with it. It is every bit as clear and smooth as not having a protector at all. Also Boxwave had the best customer service I have ever dealt with.
[Epic 4G General] InfDaMarvel:
lol my epic has a scratch on it screen. Phone might be fast, and feature packed. But the build is medicore when compared to some smart phones. Screen is protections is nothing to brag about.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrianoftyriel:
Hi everyone. For those of you who have an X10a, who's planning on flashing to 2.1 X10i software as soon as it's available?

Bin4ry and MarylandCookie have recommended against it, in favour of waiting for an X10a specific 2.1 here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=823115. However, I know we're all impatient and want to get new FW ASAP. We also know that in 1.6 ROMs it was not an issue to have an X10a flashed with X10i FW, and in the end, it didn't seem to affect anything, despite the different basebands.

I thought it would be a good idea to have a thread open for anyone to warn others if it brought disastrous results.

So, let's have it: anyone planning on flashing immediately with 2.1 Nordic?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bin4ry:
Just want to add my stuff here :P

You MAY get Baseband issues. So the firmware and everything else should run well, but depends on the carrier you have you can get problems with 3G.

But i personally think that you will be able to flash back to 1.6 everytime using flashtool again, but that is not 100%. Maybe you have to wait for original X10A 2.1 to correct baseband.

Regards

Bin4ry
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Candy[MAN]:
No point screwing up your phone not having SEUS support. Just debrand using the latest LAM firmware and wait till the official 2.1 is out.

SE LAM stated last week that they were still on target for a late Oct launch so it wouldn't surprise me if it gets released on Monday.

I am waiting....what is an extra day or two anyways...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarylandCookie:
Well you should be able to extract the baseband from the LAM f/w and then use the Generic Global :)

Or just wait for Rogers lol and have a seperate thread for the wait on that!! :D
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hypercore:
No point in taking the risk, chances are that someone will try it right away and post the results within 10 minutes of the update anyways, so I'm going to just sit back and let someone elses phone be the lab rat haha.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Me.

Why would X10i users wait for the X10a. :confused: Can you quote exactly what it is they "warn against"?

And not being able to update with SEUS.

I'm just going to wait for the UK Generic.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AyDee:
What you mean to ask is

The potential problems are with X10a phones running an X10i rom but you already know that since the title of the thread is phrased correctly. Just want to avoid further confusion there...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarylandCookie:
He meant x10a users waiting for x10a firmware. Seems to have been a misunderstanding here. This point was referring to x10a users flashing their handsets with the Nordic x10i release of 2.1 but were advised to wait for the LAM release or their Rogers. :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nankov:
Hi guys can please someone let me know whats going on? My question is why u dont advise flashing an x10a with x10i? My phone was originaly the stock rogers one and was x10a but to debrand it i used 026 x10i rom a few months ago and now its 026 x10i global generic. So can i flash this 2.1 rom?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarylandCookie:
In a nutshell we had x10a baseband for 1.6 but for 2.1 we dont.

You could try flashing it without the x10i 2.1 baseband but we dont know how that will go down and how that will affect functionality of 3g, radios, mediascape etc so we advised against it. At your own peril .... lol
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
There are files on those guides to change back to X10a, and it's my understanding that if you've flashed a to i or vice versa you can't use SEUS to update.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nankov:
And is there a big possibility to brick the phone completely without a chance to go back?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrianoftyriel:
My bad. The first X10i should be an X10a. Edited.

As for assurances that it can be reversed... I'm confident that even if it doesn't work, someone here with figure out a way to reflash X10a firmware... but the bottom line is that it is unlikely that it will be irreversible, but we cannot know until someone tries.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nankov:
delete pls
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aussiesausage:
man ive been reading this for days on end, and im confused as hell.

i have a X10a, i flashed generic global, now it shows up as X10i, does that mean its stuffed?

i run SEUS and it still says "your phone has the latest software" ect ect.

can someone PLEASE tell me if my phones bummed or not? do i flash back to X10a now or something?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robbyf66:
if you dont know what your doing, maybe you should do your research first?

I'm glad noobs are here for hardware testing :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aussiesausage:
i know what im doing in regards to flashing it, but i didnt know flashing X10i **** on X10a would **** the phone, i took that section in the stickie that i can flash back to X10a

...........
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pngface:
Robby don't be mean :p

(ofcourse they are for that but they aren't supposed to know)

Anyway, I think you're fine mate, as long as you flash back an X10a firmware. People say that SEUS doesn't work if you 'cross-flash' but maybe you can just wait till Sunday evening and see if u don't get any update, and then flash back
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aussiesausage:
theres no 026 in X10a in the stickie either.

any idea when sunday evening over there is here in australia? im guessing monday morning or something?

i will have to flash to nordic ROM
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robbyf66:
IMO, I think we are perfectly fine with the x10i 2.1 version coming out (if we can flash it)

There is a possibility for it to go screwy but I think we proved it won't by using previous x10i roms on x10a. I honestly doubt that they would have changed this, if they were this concerned about it then 2.2 would be out.

I hope my intuitions are correct :) I'll probably try it first day (just not the first person ;) )
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aussiesausage:
the problem is SEUS not working though isnt it? im download the nordic ROM now.

is there a way to tell if SEUS is working or not with x10i on a?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dk2000zx:
My thinking is: (im on rogers, x10i nordic rom on a x10a)

I think that IT WILL WORK!!! Dont have to worry about anything... im gonna be the first to try! Sunday > UPDATE MY PHONE TIME! and if it screws up well.... imma try to reverse it...

okok... maybe im not gonna be the first to try... ill seee if someone decrypt the rom and the make an auto installer or something yeah... excited

Hypothetically, couldn't someone just dump the 2.1 rogers rom and then the x10a's experiencing problems with the nordic 2.1 just flash the rogers rom with flash tool? assuming it isn't bricked of course
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dk2000zx:
Actually, Rogers' 2.1 Android Rom is coming in November only.... We want 2.1 as soon as possible... obviously before Monday (before school starts)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soutaiseiriron:
My point being if the baseband was giving problems with the nordic and downgrading not being possible. Not saying it will not be, i was just asking Hypothetically just in case as i am flashing the nordic 2.1 although i have a x10a
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dk2000zx:
Same case here. Welcome to the club haha... it should work tho... hopefully
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alankstiyo:
willwait for the x10a version,no case to screw my phone
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrianoftyriel:
I agree, I highly doubt we'll run into a problem with it, but it is possible, if they somehow prevent us from downgrading, AND the baseband screws up our 3g frequencies. Worst case scenario, we wouldn't have 3g (only EDGE and GPRS) until we can get an X10a ROM flashed back onto it.

HOWEVER... I'm going to wait to hear from someone else that it works first... I don't want to risk it.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sighx:
If I recall didn't I hear somewhere that once you upgrade to 2.1 you will not be able to flash your phone back to 1.6 or something?

Well.. I know it was from this forum. Just awhile ago.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dk2000zx:
I read somewhere that if you flashed your x10a with the nordic x10i firmware... you wont be able to update via seus... am i wrong?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaintyUK:
I believe this issue is not that you won't be able to update - because you will. The problem is that using SEUS to update will give you the wrong baseband (think thats the word? :p) so you will most likely have problems with 3G or picking up network signals.

Edit: I've just remembered where I found this out - its in the 2nd post in this thread by Bin4ry :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dk2000zx:

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fightingroost12:
is it possible to manually put in your wireless settings for 3g connectivity after flashing the nordic firmware? i have my at&t wireless settings written down, and i dont care about using seus after, so is it safe to flash the nordic firmware on my x10a?

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dk2000zx:
Oh well try at your own risks... flash the nordic one on it and if it doesnt work out.. reflash the att one on it.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fightingroost12:
sounds like a plan, ill try it now and let everyone know how it works out... if u dont mind though how would i go about reflashing back to at&t
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dk2000zx:
Its somewheere in the decryptrd rom thread.. if u cant find the att one, just flash to x10a generic 3G worked fine for me on that (rogers in canada)

well it worked. my cell thinks it nordic and i was able to still connect to my att network
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dk2000zx:
Well, nice!

All we have to do is wait til tomorrow evening and try SEUS... If it works the things i worry about is:

-3G not working, or hard to get reception

-SEUS not working because we flashed x10i to x10a (idk people say this but im not sure...)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fightingroost12:
well 3g works fine for me i actually got a call seconds after i flashed the nordic firmware before i even hooked up the at&t 3g manually.. i just made a face at my phone of confusion lol but i put in the settings and the 3g is working fine. the only thing i was worried about was by flashing the firmware at&t would somehow autimatically lose my phone.

I have been on x10i firmwware for ever and since probably I moved I can not update in SEUS nor the PCC. That is the flaw and probably will stop us from upgrading to 2.1 when it comes out unless it goes OTA which I know it works.

press menu back back menu back menu menu back.

Inside you'll find the infos you need, (thanks to pabling19)

2. Now if you're like me and followed Bina4ry's debranding and rooting guide from: (delete the space after the h-->) h ttp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=71190

Now I don't need to know the release date for 2.1, as I keep up to date with that info. My question is:

with my current system info, what region would that count as?

Once I know what region it falls under I can find the release date for 2.1 myself. Thanks!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bangtail:
Alright, I'm pretty uniformed when it comes to these things, but as it stands I need some help. I have a Bell Galaxy S (GT-I9000M) that I unlocked to use on Telus and then rooted a month later in an attempt to trouble shoot a reception issue (don't ask). Trouble shooting failed and now I'm trying to get the circumvent the warranty issues by trying to re-flash back to the stock bell ROM, which is from what I can tell the I9000UGJH2. I downloaded it from (samfirmware). I'm trying to use Odin and am having some troubles. When I extract the file there is only a single .tar file inside (I9000UGJH2-PDA-Kernel-Bootloader-CL490514-Low). As such I am unclear as to what to enter for the PDA/PHONE/CSC fields. I assume this file is the PDA, and inside is the modem file if I look. Do I need to extract this to use in the modem field? I'm so confused.

Also, a couple of things. Ive had 'success' flashing using just the the one file in the PDA field, as well as that plus the modem file found inside extracted and selected in the MODEM field. HOWEVER, in both attempts though it seem to boot into the OS fine, neither recognize my SIM card. Clearly this is some sort of failure. Any suggestions?

Oh, and yes, I can get into download mode. That's the only reason I'm fiddling.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
since the phone boots into the OS

and you have the 3 buttons working

you can try flashing it back to stock (JH2) using KIES

and see if you can get it to recognize your Telus SIM card with that.

before you go ahead, do you have friends or family with Fido or Rogers SIM you can try?

just to make sure it's not a Telus SIM card problem
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bangtail:
I'm pretty sure I did flash it to the stock JH2. When I plug into kies and search for firmware updates it says there are none. Am I doing something wrong?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bangtail:
maybe if I flash the update prior to JH2? Then it will see it need an update and go to town?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
on the registry just change all the JH2 references to JG9

then it will offer you JH2 for "upgrade"
