SE Turkey Support Center has replied that mail , as the answer of "when will x10 get 2.2?" Since it is in Turkish you will not understand what it says and let me translate it for you.

SE X10 will get the 2.2 update at the second quarter of 2011. Works are still going on for 2.2 version. For further info , you may visit bla bla..

So Q2 2011 is the date..

Edit 1 week later

They have sent another mail about that mail (the one above) saying that:

"We would like to correct the statement that we have told you in the previous mail about Android 2.2 version. The information that has been given to you by SE Customer Service is not true We are sorry about the misinforming..

I guess Jeff's investigation worked out :) Cheers
[XPERIA X10 General] mrtim123:
already have 2.2 on mine :) waiting for next version of AOSP that TeamX10 are working on. I dont want another SE ROM on my phone unless i have to have one :)

Thanks for sharing that anyway, it will get many people excited!
[XPERIA X10 General] pedromr:
What means it will be around q3 2012... :P

But that's great news, imo! I think they want to make amends for all the delays with 2.1.

Well... 2.1, then Dual-touch, then 2.2... Sounds like an almost apropriate "excuse-us" for me.
[XPERIA X10 General] unknown13x:
hmm...the words i got is different, so i would recommend not to put up all hopes to the words that they gave out. I will try to confirm from my side too whether the info is correct. This is due to the new handsets are pushing out with 2.3. Also, the end of life cycle of the X10 is Q1 2011, and SE usually doesn't bring out updates for its product after its EOL (Same policy with all companies). Thanks for the info though!
[XPERIA X10 General] Tony_C:
I thought I saw on their site product life was 2 years.
[XPERIA X10 General] batman_112:
Yes. It is two years indeed.
[XPERIA X10 General] aLPaSLaN07:
So how much time do we have until EOF then? :)
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
Well.. x10 was born (in the UK at least).. end of March 2010.. so... March 2012.
[XPERIA X10 General] batman_112:
Yep. March 2012 seems like the correct date.
[XPERIA X10 General] skyleth:
correct date for warranty, but cell phone companies doesn't produce the same phone for more than 1 year, with some exceptions of course.
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
We're not talking about warranty - SE have committed to support the X10 with software updates for 2 years.. so it would go "end of life" March 2012.
[XPERIA X10 General] unknown13x:
EDIT: OK i found your source on their site. EOL for retail will be in March, but support wise, who knows. It will be UP to 2 years, but I doubt they will push it that far with the rapidly changing Android version.
[XPERIA X10 General] k1sr:
Given my limited Turkish, I think it reads something more along the lines of:

Ha! fools - do you honestly think you're going to get 2.2 in this lifetime. As an absolute best, products we release in 2011 may get a 2.2 upgrade, providing it is at least 3 or 4 steps behind the current Android release​

Like I say, my Turkish is pretty poor, but I think that's the gist of it...
[XPERIA X10 General] Tony_C:
I think you have it reversed, Warranty is 1yr, support is 2 yrs.

"This Limited Warranty will last for a period of one (1)

year as from the original date of purchase of the Product"
[XPERIA X10 General] batman_112:
Great. I have been a SE user since 1997 (Ericsson prior to 2001). All of my phones since that time have all been SE with the exception of a few months using Alcatel. My most recent phone was the C902i which was released summer 2008. I have had a firmware upgrade 3 times since then. The most recent one was back in March or April of this year. You can say all you want about SE being late releasing updates but, they do not abandon their phones. Unlike Samsung, which my wife uses, who abandon them a few months after release. They may have changed now but, that is my experience with them.
[XPERIA X10 General] MJ_QaT:
Actually Sony Ericsson started in 2001 :)

just to let you know as you might got confused with Sony itself or Ericsson
[XPERIA X10 General] batman_112:
Yeah sorry. I meant Ericsson which then became Sony Ericsson. Thanks :p
[XPERIA X10 General] se_dude:
I think we should better lobby with SE to release the 2.3 update rather than blabbering on about Froyo, given SE have already spent their resources on upgraging to 2.3. Would be a viable thing for them to do as well.
[XPERIA X10 General] MJ_QaT:
Yep thought so :p

Missing Ericsson from the 90s :D :D

I do believe the next Xperia will be 2.2 and updated to 2.3.... or they might jump onto 2.3 in their X12
[XPERIA X10 General] unknown13x:
woah woah woah, calm down please, I have not mentioned ONE WORD about SE being late. All I'm saying is whether the info is correct. We (SE and I) have had times where the customer support are not well informed. We've seen MANY cases here since before the 2.1 update. I never said SE will abandon their phones either, but internal people (like me) would know when the EOL of each handset is, and they only last 1 year. 1 1/2 AT MOST. Aino got extended due to the new Classic edition release, but they're the only exception so far. So please don't start bashing on me, I was just suggesting and warn about the info, not to bash on SE.

The devs got 2.3 update since last weekend on the new handsets. SE skipped 2.2 and went straight from 2.1 update-1 to 2.3 on the new handsets (Our X10 will still receive the update-2 however, the update-1 on the new handsets was only for debugging) So MR is already wrong on their facts, and I'm not surprised since Eldar isn't the one who wrote it.
[XPERIA X10 General] marcoplo:
Long time ago i put a cross on 2.2 in X10 and any additional update I threat as a gift I dont expect any update because I just dont belive them

No trust no believe " Seriously"

Pesymistic PoV :D
[XPERIA X10 General] johndub71:
All I can see on 2.2 is face book updates and a polished gmail.
[XPERIA X10 General] ballubas:
what about flash player? to name one thing!
[XPERIA X10 General] AdamUpNorth:
And apparently way better memory management & improved performance.
[XPERIA X10 General] ParrotSquawk:
Heck... there isn't even a legit 2.1 for the US yet and we are still whining about 2.2?

I hate that I have to hack my way to upgrade my phone. I only do it because so many apps require 2.1 or better!
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
..

.. And google Voice Search (it is already on some x10a kits, and you can download it from AppBrain now even though it says for Froyo 2.2. Just in case they don't update)
[XPERIA X10 General] Anandc:
I want 2.2

Any news/rumours?
[XPERIA X10 General] Bennachie:
@unknown13x

In-call volume news please..............

In-call volume news please,.................
[XPERIA X10 General] will.m:
What's with all the "low-incoming call volume" spamming. My phones have been so loud that it hurts my ears at not even half volume.
[XPERIA X10 General] qwer23:
Seems to be a problem that only hits about 50% of the X10 owners. My in-call volume is also loud and clear. But since there are many who complain about it (not only xda users, also SE support forums seem to be full of this problem) it's not something people are making up.
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
I used to think my volume was good after the 2.1 upgrade, then I used it at an Orlando Magic game along with my girlfriend's blackberry and my Dad's Iphone. There was no comparison, and I was quite embarrassed because I had spent the whole day bragging about my Android with 8 mega pixel camera and thousands of free apps. However I couldn't even use it as phone at the game. We used my phone as a camera, and used theirs for communications.

I'm wondering if the so called 50% who are happy with their volume could rank their volume compared to a blackberry or I phone? Maybe there would be more of a defining line. I'm sure the volume works for some people, but that doesn't mean its good.
[XPERIA X10 General] qwer23:
Lol, sorry for OT, but my old X1 has Gingerbread before my X10 is even close: click :D:D:D

I gotta try this out right now!

Again, sorry for OT, but i had a good laugh on that one :p
[XPERIA X10 General] totalundone:
I posted my experience elsewhere but I'll re-post it here. Maybe it would help in diagnosing whatever the issue is.

On 1.6 with T-Mobile USA (global generic) I could barely hear a thing.

On 1.6 with some prepaid service (forgot who, they had a kiosk in the airport). I think they used Vodafone as their backbone. I could hear much better but not great.

On 2.1 with T-Mobile USA. It's been great and plenty loud.

I *think* it's a codec issue between service providers and the handset. I don't know the intricacies of codec selection and volume on networks but it appears to be that.
[XPERIA X10 General] Timbits93:
Apparently looking at Engadget, they see a Froyo Upgrade for our handsets lol.
[XPERIA X10 General] batman_112:
I doubt it. But, who knows?! :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Timbits93:
linky - http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/05/live-from-sonys-ces-2011-press-event/

"4:51PM They keep showing the Xperia X10 on the screen. Now shown: a Froyo upgrade for the Xperia X10."

I still want a new SE phone lol
[XPERIA X10 General] ChrisMCP:
We will get nothing and like it! (c) family guy :D

ps. yeah saw that line too on EG, the key word is "upgrade", instead of "update"?
[XPERIA X10 General] tcolec540:
I want pinch to zoom before 2.2. I can get a custom rom at least for froyo. But I honestly don't think Se is going to follow through with the whole pinch to zoom thing. I cant find any recent info for it. Sony is all over their new arc. I'm sure they have forgotten about their x10 already.
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
Are referring to the Xperia Arc on engadget? Not an X10.
[XPERIA X10 General] ste71m:
4:51PM They keep showing the Xperia X10 on the screen. Now shown: a Froyo upgrade for the Xperia X10. UPDATE: This was a terrible joke, ruined by a typo. It was supposed to say "Not shown." Our apologies -- liveblogging is a rough game.
[XPERIA X10 General] qwer23:
good, because i still bet that 2.3 is more probable than 2.2 :)
[XPERIA X10 General] tryantar:
It really sucks ... i bought an x10 weeks ago.. and now their unveiling xperia arc.......
[XPERIA X10 General] tryantar:
should i make an email to SE? ive already wrote on their blog but...

yeah this is what i wrote.

***********************************************************

Congrats on the new phone. it looks awesome =)

but aside from the looks, the only significant differences it has with the x10 would be the camera, some screen enhancements with the bravia BE, maybe some other minor improvements and the NEWEST (note the word “N-E-W-E-S-T”) android OS.

Im very content with the hardware i currently have on the x10 the only thing im very furious about as with “stu” here is that by launching the SE arc with the latest android gingerbread and not (yet) coming out with an update for the x10, its as if SE wants us to ditch our x10s and go get an arc.

I would really like SE to rethink your marketing strategies because your current one is really making a lot of loyal SE followers (mostly unable to afford more than one new phone in a year or more) Furious. I repeat F-U-R-I-O-U-S. (would you like to spell it with me? C: )

@Rikard

I believe you are the one moderating this blog? or perhaps thats what it seems as many are referring to you for answers. I do hope you answer their questions a fast a possible. and please do tell your marketing division that whatever they’re planning, i do hope that it includes satisfying your Followers (eg. launching an update for x10)

I know satisfying updates for 2-3 or even 4 models is a hard task but i believe as one of the members in XDA-Developers pointed out, SE should try sending out beta roms (Android OSs) to senior developers in XDA (or other places where SE deem suitable). they can help test, identify bugs and improve the rom further. Updates would be faster that way as many are helping on it.

Yes this is a very long comment but i really Hope SE would hear me out. If you wont listen to an adult at least listen to a 15 year old high school student. Yes im not and adult but i still can address this matter. So please give some due consideration.

********************************************************

should i?
[XPERIA X10 General] ste71m:
Well also real multitouch is another big difference. Anyway you're right that's why i think we'll never see Gingerbread on x10.

If SE upgrades x10 to Gingerbread, x10 owners won't drop their phones for the new Arc. And many people will buy the cheaper x10.

They have to push the new Arc and make it as much different as possible from x10.

I just hope for a 2.2 upgrade
[XPERIA X10 General] Fdroid:
Bad news

:( I hate to break it to you guys but here it is:

xperiax10.net/2011/01/06/official-xperia-x10-family-will-not-receive-upgrade-to-froyo-or-beyond
[XPERIA X10 General] qwer23:
Yeah well Sony Ericsson UK has confirmed a lot of wrong facts before and after 2.1 update.
[XPERIA X10 General] tcolec540:
That's just the begining... In a couple months they are going to tell us were ****ed for the Mt upgrade too. So don't be surprised when it happens.
[XPERIA X10 General] tryantar:
yeahh agree.. i mean i was super overjoyed when unknown13 said that might be an update til 2.3 but im thinking SE will just screw the x10 and put all their man power on the newer arc.. and those upcoming phones.. well i guess we could only rely on the developers for 2.3 and above roms

do they support the timescape as well in those roms?
[XPERIA X10 General] unknown13x:
Sorry guys, please refer to here for my reply

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10383047&postcount=87
[XPERIA X10 General] karun11:
Thanks for confirming :-(

Its a pity. I was actually hoping we'd get atleast 2.3. No hopes of them revising it right? :-|

Ok..if not OS updates, do you have any news of any further updates after the Q1 update for the X10 family? :fingers crossed:
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
You young people aren't used to this, but those of us who grew up during the introduction to the personal computer PC and techlogy era have been through this many times before. The minute you buy a new device, a new more efficient model comes out. Believe it or not our x10 is a more powerful computer than any PC in the 90's. Computers came with 8 MEGS of RAM, 25mhz, 120mb hard drives. The only time the word GIG was used was in the movie "Back to the Future" and the famous line "1.21 gigawatts" They just gave us 2.1 two months ago. Be happy with what you have. If you're only worried about the having the latest version you'd better get a job. :-)
[XPERIA X10 General] mrtim123:
you gotta laugh....the top 2 posts in SE X10 General at the moment say completely opposite things :)

its no wonder we have no idea whats going on :D
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
Official: SE released statement there will be NO Froyo or Gingerbread.

http://www.xperiax10.net/2011/01/06...-will-not-receive-upgrade-to-froyo-or-beyond/
[XPERIA X10 General] mrtim123:
well, taht is an official statement from SE UK....they have been wrong before ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] loneLEE:
I'd advise you to stop being delusional. Else you'd be whining about not having any upgrades in a couple pf months' time.

No expections = no disappointments.

As for the "they have been wrong before" statement, I believe that they never had the intention of having multitouch, no matter what.

But then some Chinese hacker managed to make it work, spreading this news over the net and youtube.

So the company felt ashamed that this contradicted their claims. So, they had no choice but to give us pinch-to-zoom instead of multitouch to cover their shame.

As for this situation, you can't put them to shame. They DID NOT say that the phone is incapable of upgrading, just that they ANNOUNCED that they have no interest in upgrading it.

If it is the former, just ask the hackers here to make the phone run 2.2, post on youtube and voila! Sony Ericsson will have no choice but to do something about it.

Face it. 2.1 is what we will have to settle till our phones die off.

Unless someone can blackmail Sony Ericsson's CEO by threatening to post his naughty affair photos online, let's all stop the futile attempts and learn to appreciate our phones for who she is, and not what she can become =)
[XPERIA X10 General] x10user2011:
There won't be an update to 2.2 , check the post on XDA or see on xperiax10.net for yourself
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
You hit the nail on the head with no expectations no disappointment, but your tone says you're not liking it.

We all bought our phones with 1.6 and no multi touch. They delivered on 2.1 and they went out of their way to bring us multi touch. If multi touch and the latest software were so important, why did you buy the Xperia X10?
[XPERIA X10 General] Sighx:
So sad that SE probably won't be doing much after the multi touch update. Even RIM still supports STORM "1".

Very disappointing.
[XPERIA X10 General] loneLEE:
Actually I don't like the fact that kids here keep whining, that's all. It's just like when you are out eating at a food court, and some spoilt brat keeps crying on top of his voice just because her doesn't get what he wants.

Wouldn't you feel like going over and slap his parents and strangle him?

+_+
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
I couldn't have described it any better. I feel the same way. Mommy (SE) said no, so now they're crying to Dad (xda). I keep waiting to hear someone get smacked, but then I realized parents can't discipline their kids anymore. Hense a bunch of spoiled brats.
[XPERIA X10 General] Infinity1988:
That's totally not the point. If the phone worked smooth with android 2.1 it would be ok, but it doesn't. The fact that less capable phones get upgraded to 2.2 is even more frustrating. It's not to have the latest android version, it's to have a good working device. 2.2 brings so much more than 2.1 it's ridiculous not to bring it out for the x10. And on the blog they said the phone wouldn't have multitouch at release but would be fixed soon after. We can't even open flash on a 1 GHz phone, just rediculous.

It's more like you sit at a restaurant and you get fries with 5 flies and 3 hairs in it and you cry for a replacement and they say no. If you buy a car you don't expect you have to fix the valve timing. If you buy a xperia you don't expect to fix the software to run smoothly. There's just no excuse. Fact is the company made a great phone and screwed the software. And i only like sony ericsson phones, imagine how frustrating it is. Why can't the companies just make a phone that works. All those people who bought the phone, and don't come to this forum are just screwed and can throw their 500€ phone in the thrash because it lags so much.
[XPERIA X10 General] ffortissimo:
I didn't know what to expect from my first Android phone.

I knew that the X10 was behind with versioning, but didn't think of it as a great deal.

What I found to be strange was that there was no way to install your own Android-version. I read that Android was all about freedom and the ability to install your own OS.

I'm happy with the X10 and happiers with folks like J, T, Z and the rest who try and do their best to give us a better X10.
[XPERIA X10 General] MJ_QaT:
hmmmm I have to disagree on this, sorry but have you tried other phone's os? Galaxy S for example?

I'm writting this reply using my Galaxy Tab with 2.2 os, and let me say that it is worse than my x10's 2.1. Wifi disconnects from time to time, very unstable os, had to factory reset a couple of times because of some force closes loop, flashed it five times to get the calender working. Now it cannot be my device's problem as I have asked a friend of mine with a Galaxy S who faced same problem. The point here is that the 2.1 for the x10 is far more stable than my 2.2 galaxy tab
[XPERIA X10 General] pcfanboy142:
However terrible and unstable other phones are, that doesn't mean se should release a half assed os. Fact is, the x10 is more than capable to run vanilla froyo smoothly.
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
I'm pretty sure the specs for every X10 clearly read upgradeable to Android 2.1.
[XPERIA X10 General] tryantar:
For what i think although i have been whining about the updates. I believe what uhhh.... Who was it again? Well the guy that said im childish that his point of view is pretty much right. Our x10 works just fine so i see no point in whining because of the way the os runs. But if youre talking about apps wise then there would be something to whine about. I believe i need not elaborate on this.

To the guy who said that his samsung isit? Sucked. I think that in comparison yes x10 does have a very stable os yay to the sedevs for that. I myself think that it is pretty good. My friend has a htc and sucks to high heaven. But thats when we compare to most of the medium or lower end devices and occasionally some high end ones. There may be afew high end phones that runs on 2.2 and doesnt suck. Yes but only afew so lets allbe grateful that this phone still beat alot ofits competitors even if its the first gen.
[XPERIA X10 General] Greydesk:
I'm not one to keep whining for the next upgrade. In fact, I would have been happy to stay at 1.6, except for 1 major issue: Voice dial over Bluetooth!

This is one safety issue that needs to be fixed and 2.2 fixes it. That is the only reason I want 2.2.

Flash is a distant second as a nice to have. Install to SD? Well, I don't install that many apps so my X10's internal memory is plenty. I currently have 168MB free on my phone and 10.66Gig on my SD. I use my phone for almost everything.

Please SE, give us 2.2. If only for the safety issue!

Thanks!

Greydesk
[XPERIA X10 General] aLPaSLaN07:
I don't see any reason for the metaphors about the whiners.. Why would we be like children? We're not asking for über technology or sth. We just want something that would meet the money's worth. Don't care other devices are the same.. I saw HTC Desire HD and its smooth like hell.. Why is not my phone like that altough it is capable..? I'm not gonna be like an apple fun boy who accepts what S. Jobs throws at them.. I want what i deserve..
[XPERIA X10 General] HYPER-X10:
X10 will never be as smooth as DHD. Different processor and graphics. Arc has same as DHD.
[XPERIA X10 General] pellajl:
Collaboration between Mommy(SE) and Daddy(XDA), now that would be a very interesting combination!!

What would the love child look like?:D
[XPERIA X10 General] MJ_QaT:
Then why didn't you go with DHD?
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
Deserve is the problem with your thinking. SE promised only 2.1, so that is what you deserve. You think you have it bad? I'm with AT&T and we got stuck with 1.6. Do you hear AT&T customers whining all over xda? No, we unbranded our phones and got 2.1. If I want 2.2+, I can find that here too.

Quit pretending that you expected to have the latest OS on the X10 when you bought it with outdated 1.6. It's ridiculous.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
When we were all on 1.6 everyone *****ed about gettng 2.1....now that we have it everyone is *****ing cuz they want 2.2/2.3....it never ends...its a damn shame! I for one love my X10 the way it is with 2.1, rooted, world firmware, xrecovery, JIT and all the themes being created. One of the devs here will eventually get 2.2 running flawlessly. Just be patient.
[XPERIA X10 General] saltorio:
Then you too sir are not happy with the way SE has left X10. They did not provide you with root, xRecovery, JIT, nor any custom themes, and they will never provide you with 2.2 running any way, let alone flawlessly. The best they have done (and are likely to do) is give use dual-touch, which I am thankful for.

I am more than amazed and grateful for the work members of this community have put into the X10. With FreeX10 2.2, I'm finally happy with my phone. But that doesn't excuse SE, and that doesn't stop me from wanting them to provide continued support via a full 2.2+ kernel.
