hey i`ve seen your image but you honly type

dd if=/sdcard/install of=/data/install && chmod 777 /data/install

i can`t see the rest (isn`t stretched?)

&& ./data/install

the comand should be

dd if=/sdcard/install of=/data/install && chmod 777 /data/install && ./data/install

could you confirm this?

or paste an image with just cmd

thats strange look image atached the only diference because i have 2.2 allready installed is what`s inside the box.

instead of that should appear the instalation process.

my advice is:

drink a beer or two,

return after a while,

format your sdcard

and start from scratch

then tell how it goes

i believe the beer part is the best:D

sorry i can`t help more than that but when something familiar happens to me thats what i do and most of the time it work:p
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jikenda:
Funny you say that... That's exactly what I was about to do. I think I'll reflash a generic 2.1 back on and reformat the SD, like you said, AND drink a beer or 3 and then try from scratch. I'll update on how it goes tomorrow. Thanks again for taking the time time help...that's what makes this forum so useful and productive..

- USB Debugging drivers are correctly installed

- You have the latest Android SDK

- Java is installed (not sure it's needed, in case !)

- You have a fully working Android 2.1 rom (official, like generic/nordic..., NOT custom !)

- The phone is rooted

- Busybox is installed and working fine.

you have to be on 2.1 stock version. are you?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jikenda:
well, so now I have a new problem. I used SEUS and relfashed the phone to 2.1, made sure everything was working fine, installed busybox and then tried to reflash. I thought everything went ok, but apparently it did not. The screen was stuck on the SE logo forever and I guess the phone rebooted once I turned it off? I dunno, because now the phone has no battery and it doesn't seem to be holding a charge now. I've attahced a screen..this is the cmd log from yesterday when I thought it was done and everything was ok...

Did I brick this thing?? Any help would be appreciated.. Thanks

EDIT: By the way, in the post above me, isn't the guy missing the install file on his SD card??

It´s not normal to get stuck on SE logo but you refeer that busybox is installed. did you root you X10? you need to.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jikenda:
here it is....sorry.

Edit: Busybox was installed and working and the phone was rooted via oneclick method. Also, I plugged my phone back in and its still sitting on the se logo, so I guess it is taking a charge now. I'll let it charge for a while and reflash back to 2.1 and try again. Why am I running into this problem? Any guess?......haha, I'm making this look so difficult, huh?

Everything went ok.

Did you have root on 2.1?

Yeah, I did root with OneClick and I had su permissions on there because I just installed titanium and busybox...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crowds:
ok then.

like i said. everything run as it should.

you don`t have to reinstall 2.1, just enter in 2.1 rom by pressing back button after you see SE logo and repeat the process (just adb part no need to copy/paste again).

and no worrys about cracking your device with dual boot method

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMasterofDome:
Quick tip for TS

Im using your guide right now, can't say if it worked or not right now, but here's something to add to your guide:

- You have to mount the SDcard first, to copy the files to, but before you run the command (dd /install/....) you have to unmount it first! otherwise it won't work.

- The ROM is packed in a tar.bz2 file, then a .tar file and then you got the FreeX10 and install file. So you have to extract two files before you get the actual files. 7-zip is a good tool for this.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrtim123:
spot on mate! i use winrar to open the .tar.bz2 file, then i connected phone and mounted the usb and copied the 2 files from the open winrar window to the sd card. then i unmounted the sd card and issued the adb commands. worked first time perfectly :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ragespeed:
Did you

1.try using winrar to unpack the files cause winzip doesn't work for me

2.for 2.2 ver1 there are two files:

FREE X10 and INSTALL file

make sure you have both after the extraction

3.Make sure the unmount button is press to ensure you're out from there.

4.proceed with adb shell process and countinue with the command (as needed)

**Please take note you need to have enough space on your sdcard and NO App2SD partition.

It doesn't work for me at least

Please don't give up easily,I just love to learn and it makes me happy for it.It's your call tho if you insist not to continue.

Anyway,good luck mate cheers!:)

And don't complain about how difficult it is, it is MUCH MUCH more difficult and boring to get (for instance) a beta firmware working on iPhone.

Developpers here are excellent, as they do everything to make it easy to install/use, even for pre-alpha releases. Few years ago you would definitely brick your device several times before you get something to work :)

I've been trying my favourite flash game - Dirt Bike from Free Online Games.

It's a massive test as it likes to eat performance (tried on Wii years ago lol), and if it is usable (little screen + "woops" missing keyboard :p).

Didn't run ^^

But I almost didn't try anything regarding Flash, I'll do later :D

So... don't forget : Flash games are usually built for use with computers (= keyboard, mouse). There's no stuff like that on our phones and there's nothing yet to convert keyboard-to-touch Flash content for x10. Except links, you can't (yet) emulate arrows, mouse moves, etc etc.

ok. so you said taht you`ve installed 2.2 but when reboot you just got 2.1. is that correct?

first of all...that 2.1 is the stock rom. yes?

if so try this.

reboot and when you see the "sonyericsson" on the black screen just press back button and see if it goes to 2.2.

if not you think that you`ve installed the 2.2 rom but you have donne something wrong.

check back button and then tell us something

edit: i forgot something. don`t you install 2.1 custom rom instead of 2.2? and just to check. go to settings>about and check witch version you have
