[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Emanueldominic:
Hello everybody,

this is my first post ever. I've been following XDA developers for many years when I was still using Windows Mobile PDA's and later smartphones. This Forum has helped me with so much.

But now Im facing a problem which I cant find a solution for. Maybe this has been solved in another thread already, then I'm sorry that I must have overlooked it.

I purchased and Xperia X10i about two weeks ago. Everything worked fine out of the box.

Then I updated the software via the PC connection to 2.1

Before I of course backedup everything.

After the update I restored my backup and everything seemed to work proper.

Yesterday when I tried to access the Market place the screen popped up and it showed me the loading message but it simply didn't load. The screen flashed a few times then the app was forced shut.

I searched on several forums and followed the instructions posted by people with similar problems.

1. It was suggested that I perform a Hardreset. This didnt work through the method by pressing the left and right key simultaniously and the pressing and releasing the power button. For whatever reason my phone just boots normally

2. Factory reset through the menu: Settings > SD card & Phone storage: This option is not even present after the software update

3. Deinstalling Market update: I deinstalled the updates for the market application but that didnt change anything

4. Using the update function of the PC software to repair the update:

I performed another update through the repair function this seemed to make matters worse. Now when I go to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications I cant even see the other installed application except one UEFA something.

Funny enough everything else on the phones seems to work well.

Details about the network.

I live in Kenya and use Safaricom as my carrier. There were no issues before I updated

I work in South Sudan and use Vivacell. I dont use Vivacell for data but rather use my wireless connection. Up until the update and even shortly afterwards that worked just fine.

Im really confused. Don't know what else to try.

Should I root the device and install Froyo rather?

Thank you in advance for any suggestions, and again if this has been solved elsewhere then I'm really sorry for overlooking it. Please post a link if so.

Update for point 4.

Point 4. was simply my own stupidity. I had a filter set wrong. never the less the market problem remains
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Emanueldominic:
using the application from AppPit instead at the moment. This one works fine and donwloads and installs have no issues.

Would love to use the marked though because bit has way more apps which I need. AppPit is a bit limited

Try removing updates on Market.
[Epic 4G General] NYYFan325:
I went back to 2.1 since I couldn't get GPS going on 2.2

So after reading this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=847230

I followed the suggestion in there and cleared market cache, no luck.

Is there any way to get my market to work again without having to reflash the DI18 TAR and not restore my data? I thought that was the whole point of a nandroid backup lol

What causes this? What would be a good next step to try?
[Epic 4G General] BopChie:
are downloads just hanging at "starting download"?

I had that happen after going back to 2.1 and tried everything under the sun (cache,wiped data,dalvik pulling vending and market updater and pushing in fresh apks etc) and i finally caved in and odined back to stock then rerooted,flashed my rom of choice (syndicate) then restered apps with titanium and used nandroid to restore just my data partition from last known good backup and all was back to how it was before (texts,call logs,launcher settings,widgets etc)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oak25:
I used it yesterday but my phone was acting a little weird afterwards... any one else have any inputs? is it safe to use and keep rooted. My device was rooted but idk it seemed to be trippy for a bit until i unrooted...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esincho:
What is that?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jester450:
No problems here. Just a temp root, so if you restart, gps back to normal.

What type of problems are you having?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oak25:
oh okay temp root. I run it, and after that there is this lag about the phone. Well i just want it to remove some of the apps that came preloaded. To remove these apps, do you think i would be able to do it through root explorer? i.e. asphalt, amazon mp3 etc..? thanks
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oak25:
its an application that roots your phone. I think the full name is Z4 root. i need to check but if you look it up it will come up.

If you're just temporarily rooting your phone, why wouldn't you use Visionary which has been tested/used by hundreds of people already?

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004CYEQF0/ref=oss_product

I'm thinking of placing an order, but might wait cause they're over pricing it. But I'm glad an AT&T version actually exist. I wonder if they locked out the side loading though
[Galaxy Tab General] Croak:
Hello and welcome to last week. AT&T's Tab has been in people's hands since...well, last week. :)

Doubt it'll get much cheaper this year, Amazon's price is the AT&T price.

Side loading is locked out but that's no hill for a climber, you can use the Sideloading Wonder Machine if you don't want to tinker with the firmware, or just flash the (slightly modified) Euro firmware on it and enable sideloading AND phone calling. :)
[Galaxy Tab General] AntimatterX:
Heh i put in a order for it. I got a question though, I dont have a AT&T data/voice plan. Do i need to buy one of them sim cards on ebay and activate it on the website for a data/voice plan so i can use my tab as a 80's era monster phone?
[Galaxy Tab General] AITT:
Cool I been trying to keep with this but haven't seen anything about att release till yesterday. My normal sites had no mention of it being out yet. I really hate that att is still doing this baby sitting bs with android. I'm assuming rooting will be easy to do on this as the TMo version.
[Streak 5 General] treylemkn:
Hey Guys,

First off I'm new to the streak. Picked mine up from my local best buy today. I read the PDF for beginners. Got mine rooted. Installed clockworkmod through Fastboot. Tried installing Steve's Froyo. Everything was going fine. It did the two reboots after the .mbn file. But when I flashed the rom in clockwork mod the notification bar didn't do it's thing all the way. Then it rebooted and hung on the dell logo.

I tried using fastboot to flash the recovery image but that requires access to the sd card once you but the phone into recovery.

I'm totally lost! Been trying to get my phone back to life for hours and I'm having no luck.

Can anyone help?
[Streak 5 General] chaikowsky:
It was discused already!!!

Just do a factory reset and after, try to boot normaly.

Or do factrory reset, reflash the update.zip and so...

In most cases that helps!
[Streak 5 General] Mark X:
G'day,

I wouldnt always trust the "update bar"... Quite a few times for me it seems to "abort early", though it has still worked fine.

Did you give it 8 or so mins to boot?... When you first flash it can take quite awhile for the initial boot.

Get the qdltool and install 2.2 that way... Easiest safest way...
[Streak 5 General] treylemkn:
I did a factory reset last night and it hung on the logo. Just did it again after seeing your post and it's still hanging on the logo. Been about 15 minutes now. Any suggestions?

Yes...I gave it at least 8 minutes to boot. It got stuck on the dell logo so after several minutes I went to the forums to see if there was a fix. It probably had between 20-30 minutes before I started doing anything else to it.

Where would I find the qdtool? That's if I can fix this thing.

Any other suggestions guys? I'm really pissed at myself for this happening and my wife is going to give me hell for dropping almost $600 US on a phone and bricking it.

QDLtool

Here ya go mate.

QSDTool is here

[Streak 5 General] treylemkn:
Thanks bro. I'm actually a little afraid to try and upgrade. I ended up figuring out a way to unbrick my streak. I downloaded the recovery image and flashed that via fastboot. Then I manually loaded the o2 1.6 package on my sd card (couldn't access it through my phone because it was stuck on the dell logo). Flashed to o2 1.6 and then to 2.1. 2.1 is soooo much better than 1.6. And coming from a captivate it runs super fast even at stock.

I'm really happy I made the leap to the streak even with all the problems in the first two days. It's funny how both phone can run android but flashing and updating can be so different on each.

So I guess my question is...is Steve's Froyo worth it? I have my phone set up how I want it. It's quick, stable (except I don't think wifi is working, but that's okay because I have unlimited 3g) and polished. I'm not sure I want to be dealing with orientation locks and any other bugs that might be involved.

Anybody have an opinion on that?

Does this work for black streaks? Is this the easiest way to update.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flawlessbmxr:
I've had Froyo on my Epic since its been out and so far I've liked the ACS build the most. Now I can't figure out how to get the sd card to mount to the computer without using some sort of app (if it wants to work). Am i missing something when it comes to mounting the sd card or is it normal? Any help would be appreciated.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Koadic:
First, make sure you turn debugging on, then pull down the notification bar to enable mounting... thats what I had to do to get mine to work. (Debugging = Menu Key->Settings->Applications->Development->USB Debugging)

If that still doesnt work, you may have to create a shortcut to get into the USB Settings through the Activities button that is added in your Shortcuts when you install LauncherPro (can use any Launcher, just need it installed)... Long press on your screen like your going to add a widget, select 'Shortcuts->Activities->Settings->USB Settings', then use that shortcut to choose between Charging, Mass Storage, and Ask on connection.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flawlessbmxr:
Wow... I'm mad at myself since it was only the debugging that needed to be enabled. Thank you very much :D
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xgenvn:
I dont know whether i have asked a dumb question or not but i've searched for all the forum, it's all "discussing" and too much scattered thing that i still cant see the specified way for my phone.

Yes, again this question, I tried to flash Energy Rom on my phone, by USB and by SD card, everytime i reboot or turn off my phone, i will need to connect through USB to boot on, or not it will display tri-color screen and flash No Image File. I copied the image file to SD card and now when i boot the phone it tell me to update the rom on SD card... And if i delete this image on my SDｃａｒｄ then...it's again, nothing too much to say...

Is there any way to let my phone boot on without USB wired and no tri-color screen (i guess i hate that much).

Hope getting help from you all, and please tell me step by step, i'm newbie anyway, please.

By the way, anything related to mtty or HardSPL, SoftSPL i still dont work it out. Please give me some tips.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] circleofomega:
Firstly, you have not written what happens to you very clearly...its is all very confusin..from what i understand, your phone boots only if you connect it to the PC via USB...With WHAT METHOD did u FLASH your phone for the FIRST time??

Im also no expert, but i wil make an attempt...what is ur current status...does your phone start at all??
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xgenvn:
As i pay attention to the bootloader, i'm sure that it's already made the HardSPL and the phone can recognize the image on the SD Card or by USB method. The first ROM was flash on the phone is not me, this is my friend's phone, I'm just trying to help him around then.

I tried to flash the rom by USB method, but when i restarted the phone without the USB connected to PC, it did show the bootloader (i just touch the power button, not volumn button or any other key)~ then i plug USB which connect the phone to pc, soft reset it and it boot to the system again.

I try to flash it by SD-card method but it still the same. I mean that the phone can be flashed new ROM, but it's just keeping get into the bootloader everytime i restart the phone

If the image is on the SD Card it'll tell me to upgrade ROM, if the image is not on the SD Card then "No Image File!" was flashed on~

Any ideas? My friend tells me that this happened when he tried to install Sogou - chinese input application. Is there any conflicted that cause this matter?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xgenvn:
for little detail, the phone always shows up Successfully, but it still enter the bootloader mode at next restart. Is my flash-job done or just a mistake one?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xgenvn:
additionally, this may be bad... remove the battery doesnt work. Please help.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xgenvn:
help me please, do i have to hardspl again? I still cant enter WM unless i have a usb wire connected phone to pc and softreset it. Any idea?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D-jack:
hm, since you said the first flashed job was not yours, i think it's better that you repeat the whole procedures again starting from hardspl. but make sure you're using the correct version. re-download again if you're not sure.

also while most people rarely done so, it's bad to have multiple rom image exist in any root folder in your phone, storage card and your pc flashing tool folder (.nbh, .rom, etc), but sometimes people do forget or **** just happens.

I recommend that you remove both sim & microsd card before going any further.

then try to boot into wm with usb cable connected like you said.

take a quick look at folder and file structure in the rom. from here i would do it slightly different than others, with no battery pulls, just using the reset button. (imho, every battery pull may cause unforeseen damage especially with power still running.)

a. push hard reset combo button (don't let go) and push reset for a few secs to hard reset.

b. after hard reset rebooting the phone, push bootloader/rom update combo buttons and hit reset for a few sec. remember to keep pushing those buttons while you release the reset pin.

c. reflash hardspl, repeat step b, reflash rom. allow rom to finish doing its job. some rom may go to sleep while installing/customizing, don't let that happend.

d. just do random thing like play a game or whatever for a few minutes or more. then soft reset or power down.

e. turn on phone and wait, if problem's solved. if it is, hard reset again. continue as usual. if it's not, try other rom (ask people for md5 checksum, compare with your download). if none works, find more help.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xgenvn:
I've just tried out the task29, it's done normally, then flash the new rom.

1. I dont think the rom are buggy, because i changed between 2 roms and it's the same matter.

2. I dont need to use bootloader/rom update combo button because it's directly entered whenever i turn on the phone (without connected to pc) (i really really dont know why)

3. Hard reset and i have my WM work again but it's still the romupdate at boot time.

I wonder if jumpSPL did all this problems, I tried mtty by task 0 and set 14 0 but it wont restart the phone, tried to format the ROM by mtty (task 32) but it wont weep out, errors given: bad... at address...

Why does it always want me to update the ROM? Is there anything wrong with jumpSPL?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xgenvn:
the problem still, please help me give a look to this.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D-jack:
ouch, last time I use mttty were ancient wm2003 era. i'll try to look for info, but can't promised anything.

at this point it's recommended to reflash the complete original stock rom, undo hardspl.

check the hardspl thread about restoring to factory default. best luck to you.

Hey everyone,

Ive just made the switch over to Eugene's MacnutR12 build from TW's Onyx\Obsidian. I'm having a lot of trouble getting a "stock-like" theme working on the Macnut due to the extensive framework modifications. It just boot loops if you do anything significant to it, and I havent found a good method around that yet. Anyone with more theming experience having anything to input? Thanks for your help!

I've attached what is a good starting point theme. I am basically attempting to mirror the "Stockish theme" that TeamWhiskey put together, but am stumbling along the way. I decided this would be a good community project to start. Please use the theme if you like it, and contribute to this thread if you modify it. Looking forward to what people can put together.

THIS IS ONLY FOR EUGENE363's MACNUTR12 BUILD

To Be Done

Redo the notification bar to look like TouchWiz - having issues w/ this personally, mainly w/ getting the power widget back back to normal size so we can use the stock images.

Already Done

Using customized Gmail (always display images) with colored notification

Updated Settings images with JunkDruggler - they looked better

Added in bits and pieces of TouchWiz images - from Stock 2.2 framework\TW's "stockish" framework

Added custom colored notification icons - Just cause I like them ;)

Added "chromed" WiFi bars, will attempt to remake for 5 bar cell antenna - Found this somewhere, please let me know if you made these, you deserve proper credit

Added my segmented green battery mod - feel free to use whatever images you want, I like the segmented green ones.

For the meantime, enjoy my "basic" theme :)

Thanks to s0niqu3, Eugene363, Manup456, TeamWhiskey, & JunkDruggler for the modified images.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] stellarvelocity:
I really hope you manage to get this theme rolling. I actually really like the TouchWiz notification pane.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] cgrunner:
Here you go. These are bone stock framework files that work on Macnut R12. I made these to have the improvements that Eugene made in Macnut but with the stock look.

I used the framework files from the Macnut rom as the base and then made my png and xml edits to revert it back to stock look. There shouldn't be any lockups or random reboots.

Also, these don't contain the accurate battery mod but you should be able to add the appropriate pngs and xml files for that mod that you are already using and be fine.

Hope this helps!

The gps fix files ripped from the dj05 update are widely available on the forums and even built into pre dj05 roms like blackhole. If you really want the dj05 system try the irc channel. This really isn't the place to ask for this. Also, be patient.

flashing it,thatsnyour fault dont blame it on

dj05.

and installing blackhole does not give

you a gps fix chs your not running dj05

only that has the fix for it

[Fascinate General] soba49:
Well only a virus in that it spreads quickly through a community, and suddenly there are lines of people with problems.

Nothing inherently malicious about it though. I would not have gone near it if VZW had been kind enough to patch it a week or so sooner.

I interpreted the virus, rick roll, etc. comments as tongue in cheek gripes that just a day after we get a "respect your community" sticky, there are three new threads with DJ in the subject line. The way I see it that's a blatant slap in the face. A less tolerant forum would have erupted.

PS The last thing anyone wants is a bunch of dead phones going back to Verizon flashed with something that doesn't exist, with a breadcrumb trail to someone helping this forum. I don't know a lot, but PM me if you have to unbrick a modem updated phone.

I got it and I love it. I haven't had any problems with it. I ran the Nex theme for DJ05 right after using odin to install the modem and I haven't had any of the problems with texting that people complain about and it is great how fast the gps connects now. It does seem to eat a little more battery than it used to but that may be because of the nex theme, I don't know. All I know is I was about to trade this phone for a Dinc, because of the slow GPS but now I love it.
