[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iMohannad:
Hey guys,

I really really really need your help on that.

A couple of weeks ago, I decided to upgrade my X10i (Android1.6) from build 24 to 26. I tried to do it OTA but I couldn't. I tried several times clicking on the "Update now" option on the "Software Update" feature but I always get a message saying "No update available". Then, I found a way to update my phone here in XDA-DEVELOPERS that requires rooting the device. I successfully upgraded it, and everything was going well. I did not notice any major changes but better performance of course.

When SE announced that they are going to release the 2.1 update, I read an article about the update, and it was saying that only non-rooted devices may be able to get the update sooner and those with rooted devices need to wait for unknown period. So, I looked over the web for debranding solution, and found one that uses SE software called "PC Suite 2.0". After installing the SW and debranding my device, I noticed that my device GSM signal drops down so easily. I never saw my device getting full 4 bars since then, always 3 or less. Even more, I can not make calls inside buildings (1 bar / no signal). When I make calls while driving, I get disconnected every 1 minute > ("No service")

I decided to turn my mobile off, and insert the SIM to my other phone "HTC Hero" until SE releases the new update (2.1). I, unfortunately, had to wait ~ 6 weeks till that day, and when I downloaded the update I didn't notice any difference. I tried the Nordic thing, and I tried the original update. No one of them seems to get my device any better signal reception.

Please guys, I need an urgent help.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iMohannad:
UPDATE:

Just noticed that when I put my x10i on matt surface, the signal all gone. When putting it on wooden surface, I get ~2 bars. And when putting it close to my macbook, I get full reception.

I'm not an expert on this kind of things and I really have no clue why is that happening. I just noticed it when I picked my phone up from the matt ground and put it on my wooden table!!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] picaron1:
I think you, must update after 2.1 nordic version in step 2 to Global version (step 1 update to 2.1 nordic version)

Try with this you loose the root, to update to 2.1 Global is necesary update to nordic 2.1 first.

greetings
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iMohannad:
G'day Picaron,

I mentioned in the OP that I already tried all the 2.1 options:

"I tried the Nordic thing, and I tried the original update. No one of them seems to get my device any better signal reception."

Any other suggestions?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iMohannad:
So, no one knows how to fix it?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khanfaisal2114:
X10i is dead after upgradation to 2.1

I also tried to update my previoius version 1.6 to 2.1 torugh SE update service but it bricked my phone. Now I can't switch it on while screen is blank. It viberated while I switch on but stays as it is. I tried numerous times but at the end of installing update it fails. I have tried other options for debranding to Nordic version which flashes till last step but nothing worked and my cell remains dead after restart. I called up SE service people who eventually told me as 2.1 update is expected to be released in KSA within this week so I shall try updating it again once it's released locally (might be fixed).

Can any one help me as how can i get it worked as I bought this through ebay and can't get service backup here??
[Nexus One General] Lumsdoni:
I just used it to call someone.

I know, mental.

I have been using my phone continuously for about the last 2 weeks, and it struck me that in that time I must have spent most of that time out of contact as I must have nandroided and flashed about 30 ROM versions.

So I am about to take the somewhat radical step of using it for more than a day on the same ROM.

I blame all of YOU for making the Nexus by far the best and most interesting phone I 've ever had.

Keep up the good work. as for gingerbread, all I want them to do is sort out the cut and paste which is truly woeful.
[Nexus One General] Bigsquidguy:
I like to call my Nexus One a 'miniature portable computer'.

Installing roms + kernels makes me feel like i'm installing new versions of Linux and overclocking.

What's wrong with copy and paste? The trackball on Nexus one should make copy and paste a lot easier than other phones without trackballs.

Please use the wiki :p

But seriously, I do use my phone on other things way more than phone calls...let's see...the only people I call are my family and girlfriend, and I see them every day anyways :rolleyes:

Ohhhh that little green phone thingy nice find!
[Nexus One General] codesplice:
I was pretty pleased to find that I could hack some VOIP stuff together to make phone calls the other day. I was really thinking that some sort of voice-communications app should have been included with the OS. I'm eagerly waiting a full post with step-by-step instructions!
[Nexus One General] fubaya:
Hmmm, interesting, although it seems like such a waste to take the phone out of commission long enough to talk to someone.

I like it. It could use a little improvement but my iPhone became a game console for my 5 year old and I have to use it sometimes to find games or do something for her and the copy and paste is annoying as hell without a trackball.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
LoL

I think all of us regulars, myself included, on this forum could take that advice to heart DarkDvr ;)
[Nexus One General] Lumsdoni:
Warning:

Following this guide will NOT in any way give you that brief sense of danger and excitement you enjoy when flashing new ROMS or Radios with the potential to brick your perfectly working $500 phone just for the sake of an extra 3 flops or fps.

This is still experimental and coud result in you having a realtime human interaction with a real person. Remember, not everyone is as interested in the inner workings of the Nexus framework as the rest of us....

1. Pick up phone.

2. Press Volume down button to back out of the WIPE menu on Amon Ra Recovery.

3. Select REBOOT PHONE NOW.

4. Wait for phone to reboot.

5. Staring at the bootloader animation desperately hoping it doesn't loop is optional.

6. Wait for lockscreen to appear.

7. Unlock screen and wait for widgets to load.

IMPORTANT: Ignoring the following steps could result in an aborted call and lack of human interaction.

8. DO NOT start SetCpu

9. Do NOT start Linpack or Quadrant

10. Select CONTACTS app, or PHONE DIALER app

11. If in Contacts try to find a contact with a phone number, ignore and facebook or Twitter only contacts.

12. Select contacts Phone number and then place phone to ear.

13. Resist temptation to try and see how close to the ear phone has to be before screen turns off and on. (See this guide for further help)

14. Listen to funny "brring brring" noise. Please note, this is NOT customisable, and is NOT a bug.

15. When the noise ends, initiate program using HELLO, HEY or HI command.

16. Enjoy the game.

But anyway, assume it works on non rooted phones. Think I rooted mine before I found the phone apparently. :)

[Droid Incredible General] dclay89:
Hey guys,

I have been trying out some different ROMs trying to pick out a daily and I have ran into a very annoying problem. When I download a sense ROM I cannot send MMS through Handcent or ChompSMS. However, the stock messaging app works like a charm when sending them. The only problem is that I hate the stock messaging app.

I always wipe and don't flash any other zips before I try sending the MMS and it still doesn't work. The weird thing is that I can use Handcent and ChompSMS on the CM6 ROM.

I've tried the APN method and factory data resets. Nothing.

Here's the sense ROMs I have tried with no luck:

-Myn's RLS2 and 3

-Nil's business sense

-Virtuous v3.1.0

Any suggestions???
[Droid Incredible General] jager420:
Try skyraider 3.3
[Droid Incredible General] dclay89:
Downloading right now..

Edit: No luck on skyraider either
[Droid Incredible General] dclay89:
Ok, so I actually unrooted my phone to try and fix this problem. I did these steps in order.

-Unrooted

-Synced my gmail account

-Went into the market and downloaded Gallery 3D and ChompSMS

-Opened Gallery3D and tried to send a picture, no luck

-Installed HandcentSMS and tried to send a picture, no luck

I didn't try anything fancy, no unnecessary downloads and didn't flash ANYTHING.. Something has to be wrong here, since the stock messaging app works.

This has been all kinds of frustrating..
[Droid Incredible General] LifTeD_JK:
It may be the kernel that cm uses. Not that knowledgable about kernels but I know that a lot of roms come pre stocked with a certain one.
[Droid Incredible General] dclay89:
I've experimented with different kernels for Sense and still no luck..

I still don't understand how when I unrooted my phone and EVERYTHING was stock, I still couldn't send MMS through Handcent or Chomp... So confusing.
[Droid Incredible General] LifTeD_JK:
Just downloaded handcent and it worked fine. Running skyraider 3.3 s-off. Nothing other than setcpu and minor tweak.

Not sure if this has been posted, thought I'd share. :)

You know the stupid wi-fi bug that makes it reconnecting every time you're connected to a horrible line?

Here's the fix:

using Root Explorer, go to:

Roodata/misc/wifi

Find:

wpa_supplicant.conf

and delete it.

restart the wi-fi. that should fix. well for me at least.

thank you for this wonderful forum. I've learned loads. :)

see ya.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjCalvin:
So for some reason last night I wasn't in my right mind (think alcohol) and I installed the latest RUU on my rooted inc. I *think* I was thinking with S-OFF i would keep root..

Yeah... F Me..

So right now I have a stock OS.. which to me is slow as all hell..

I cant boot into a recovery - phone vibrates 3 times.

I tried tossing the original recovery back on there (from adryln) - no love.. same thing.

adb - root denied..

Tried unrevoked - no love.. never installed the recovery partition correctly it seems (waiting for root)

So how the hell do i get this thing back to a point where I can re-root... or at least get clockwork back on here. Anyone go through this?

from the unrevoked wiki:

When I try to get into Fastboot by pressing VOLUME UP and booting the phone, my phone instead buzzes three times and acts dead. What happened?

The S-OFF update also enables Qualcomm Diagnostics mode on your phone, which is entered by doing what you just did. You can exit this mode (and boot normally) by removing the battery and USB cable.

That's fine and dadny.. but clockwork wont push back...

thanks

Cal

Edit: I think Im getting somewhere.

I repushed the original recovery. still got the 3 buzzes when trying to go from hboot to recovery.

pulled the battery

flashed the original recovery again

rebooted - this time i got the trianagle! woohoo - stock recovery took.

rebooted. copied over clockwork zip.

hboot - flashed clockwork recovery.

Rebooted hboot > recovery - and whalla clockwork was there...

flashed superuser - rebooted back to hboot > recovery and clockwork was there.

wipe data/cache

restoring from a heavily customized backup atm.. will update..

Edit again...

Restore completed.. I hope nobody had to go through that panic..

lesson learned : dont drink and flash..

How can i remove this topic?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setexascustoms:
Make sure you're pushing volume down and power for recovery. Volume up and power makes it vibrate, that's for Qualcom diagnostics I believe.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjCalvin:
I was.. then selecting recovery once in hboot/fastboot. I never had an issue there.

it was once i selected recovery...

even now, holding down and power gets me 3 buzzes still..

but.. my rom is back
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setexascustoms:
Have you tried flashing cwm from ROM Manager?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjCalvin:
At the Time I could not.. Didnt have root. (even downloaded superuser and it couldnt add the zip to /sdcard for root.. not that it would have mattered at the time.. no recovery)

Im all set now though..

end result was I had to flash the stock recovery multiple times before I could flash clockwork back...
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setexascustoms:
Well I'm glad you figured it out.:D
[HD7 General] unclecarl007:
Was just wondering if anybody else is experiencing this problem. When i make or receive a phone call my screen goes off and will not under any circumstances turn back on until the call is ended. I was just calling a company that requires me to select number to get to the right department and i couldn't because the screen is off and there is no way to turn it on to get to the number pad and hit the right key... Worst part about it is that the automated answering system does hangup so the only way for me to end the call was to pull the battery. Anybody have any idea what could be causing this? perhaps a faulty proximity sensor?

Incase anybody asks yes i tried hitting the power/wake key on the top and any and all buttons but still the screen remains off durring calls until the other party hangs up and it kicks me back out to the homescreen.
[HD7 General] prjkthack:
Sounds like a fault light/proximity sensor. My screen turns off as I place it near my ear, and then turns back on when I pull it away, just as it should.
[HD7 General] unclecarl007:
Yea i was thinking the same thing. Looks like i will have to make my way back to the store durring lunch to get a replacement device...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Enarca:
Anyone know any way of increasing the volume of the stock music player on the Galaxy S. It's just so quiet when compared to the iPod. This has nothing to do with my headphones, since when I listen to max volume on my iPod with the same headphones, it feels like my brain is gonna explode.

Cheers!!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xZeDgEx:
Download poweramp off the market, its a better music player anyway. It has a pre amp function that boosts the output.

I went from stock eclair to cognition the newest and have no GPS function or lock. I reverted back to stock att firmware and GPS was defunct ,anybody else have this problem and how could newer firmware not have the GPS working and now original doesn't work.

Thanks
[Captivate General] ghost77:
Captivate stock rom GPS was flaky under Eclair unreliable and slow locks , flashed Cognition v2.3b3 and bam GPS locks fast with 15m accuracy.

But i did not try it on the road yet...

Funny thing about GPS i also have Nexus One it suppose to have good GPS , with stock rom it was good , some weeks later GPS was crazy just like my cappy then some weeks later again and half a dozen ROMs played with. GPS works again :rolleyes: so go figure maybe its crazy earth magnetic fields and doomsday is near :eek:
[Captivate General] Dani897:
it can take quite a bit of time to get an initial lock. if the gps icon comes up it might mot be broken it might just need more time to download gps data from satalites.

if the icon doesnt show up even with gps turned on in settings or works temperarily but turns off after a few minutes then i have had luck with a factory reset. unfortunately you lose all your apps. generally speaking the gps on froyo builds has been quite good. but the phone is prone to errors when flashing.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Insomaniac10:
Softbricked my phone. I nandroided Fusion 1.1 then flashed Obsidian. Everything fine. But then i wiped and went to restore Fusion. Restored fine but now cant boot past Vibrant screen. I think its because i forgot to change the kernel. (Voodoo is not involved, i dont use voodoo)

So now im trying to get into recovery. I flashed the hardware-lock fix yet for some reason now i cant get into recovery via that method. I figured id try adb. Adb sees my phone and when i type "adb reboot recovery" the phone screen goes blank like its supposed to and then comes back on, but it still wont go past vibrant screen...wtf??
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Insomaniac10:
update: something else pretty interesting.....if i try to reboot into recovery via the 3-button combo, it just stays at vibrant screen, but then if i plug it in adb will see the device and it says "recovery" next to it....so im in recovery, but intsead of seeing the recovery menu, i see the Vibrant screen?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deecampp:
Have you tried using adb to reboot straight into recovery? Just type "adb reboot recovery". That should at least get you to the recovery menu on your screen.

Also, this is the technique I used to get my phone to boot into recovery using the three button method. It worked for me perfectly. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=804305
