Thanks for the video tutorial batman_112 , i did everything as shown in the video:

1. Saw that the flash mode works using update service (which incidentally showed that a new firmware is available)

2. However the part where it goes into flashing, mine still remains stuck at Searching for Xperia.

Also as i mentioned, in the Non-GUI version on selecting X10 at the promt it says 'The system cannot find the file specified' .... should it be giving that error?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] batman_112:
Did you add the firmware files in the firmware folder for the non-GUI?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] tuhinz:
:) Yes I did. The following files are present in the firmware folder:

amss.sin

amss_fs.sin

cache.sin

dsp1.sin

fota0.sin

fota1.sin

kernel.sin

loader.sin

userdata.sin
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] batman_112:
It seems that you may be having a driver problem. You need to run SEUS and PC companion at last once. They should not be running when you are flashing.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] tuhinz:
Yes it seemed like a driver issue to me too. However I did try running PC companion and it detecs my phone just fine. Also when i used update service it did enter flash mode and also shwoed me that I had an update available ( the new 2.1 update). So I assumed that the drivers are ok since the updt & pc comp services are detecing my phone . :mad:
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] batman_112:
You need to choose wipe user data? Y/N you need to choose Y.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] tuhinz:
I did choose Y but then the window closed without doing anything.

But should it give the error of 'The system cannot find the file specified' just after I select option 1. Are you sure there's nothing going on here?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] batman_112:
Yeah. I would try rebooting my PC and phone and try it again.

Help-info

Hi,

Honestly I am a noob, but I don't want now SE to prevent my phone to be rooted.

I need help to do this and I need to know the following:

Does my phone need to have a custom 2.1 to install this?(my x10 has SE 2.1 update) or my phone to be rooted first to proceed?

The point number 4. Turn off phone / remove battery- Do I need to turn it back on?

The point 5. Unpack the 2.0.2.A.0.24_for_X10-flasher.tar.bz2 and flash the SIN files with X10-flasher. -I understand this has to be done on my pc,but the flashing thing?

Why do i need loader.sin?

I am sorry for my ignorance but as I said, this is the first time I do it and I dont want SE patch to avoid rooting on my x10. I hope you can help me.

PS I did not get point number 6. LOL
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] tuhinz:
Hey thanks for helping me out. Reboot didnt work.

But this did the trick:

Rebooted PC. Terminated all but the critical system files (Win XP).

Re ran the flasher. Worked like a charm!!!

Must have been some pesky component of the Trend Micro AV that was causing it.

Other having the same problem could try this out. Cant hurt. :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] metcard:
excellent

This latest firmware with JIT and junk apps removed runs sOo freaking sweet.

I might have to get a prepaid CC and donate. :cool:
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] batman_112:
Glad that it worked. Enjoy your phone. :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] goRt:
The instructions state that you run update from recovery BEFORE flash!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] chiefy009:
Yeah you do, the flash changes your baseband. If you can't get flash going take usb out pc leave in phone, take battery out and back in start flash tool.when it says searching for xperia then plug usb into pc with finger back button it will work.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
Coming from a Noob..the steps are completely to the letter what you need to do. There is not one extra or unneeded word, but that doesn't mean it was easy. (8 hours later) I think you guys give us Noobs too much credit sometimes. The difficulty is the 10 things within each step that I had to figure out myself. It was almost like solving a riddle or scavenger hunt. Read every single word in every post, including signatures, and use every link. EXCEPT...do not pay attention to the very loud shouting in red "FOR XRECOVERY" posts, because you do have to use the X10 Flash tool.

****On that note, please help. I cannot change my wallpaper with any the system wallpaper options or Mediascape, however live wallpapers are working. Also, system apps "Cell information" and "voice search" are missing (as well as Orkut). Voice search is still available as Google Search Widget, and I'm happy to lose Orkut, but I really want my wallpaper functionality back and I haven't figured out how important Cell Information is yet (it sounds pretty important).

I went from X10a to X10i. Can anyone help???? Thanks!

right now, there are no rooting for the newer firmware/version.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] muratbaizhanov:
where to put SIN files? should i create a folder "firmware" in flashtool folder?

UPD: errything donw... waiting the phone to boot up...

:mad:If i have updated to.2.0.2.a.0.24 how can i root now
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] drunken_m:
First of all, thanks big Z for being sooo quick! You are the best man!

Second, some people are reporting, that the low in-call volume is fixed with this update, some say it's not. What is it now? Could the people who actually installed this new version confirm either statement? PLEASE! I don't want to install it unless this issue is really fixed. I'm quite happy with my 2.0.A.0.504-NORDIC including JiT and Root.

Also, does this have JiT - or is it even needed? What are the Linpack and Quadrant scores?

All in all what are the advantages for daily use? Can someone summarize it?

//Sorry if the questions have been answered before, haven't really got the time to read through all the pages...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ag4751:
Method of update from step 4 on post 1,

Turn OFF the phone and remove the battery, leave it out while you do steps 1 to 6 below put it back when you get to step 7 DO NOT turn the phone on.

Using WinZip

1.	unpack the files from 2.0.2.A.0.24_for_X10-flasher.tar creating a folder called 2.0.2.A.0.24_for_X10-flasher

2.	unpack the files from X10-Flasher creating a folder called Flash ToolRelease

3.	unpack the loader sin files to a folder called loaders

4.	Open the Flash ToolRelease folder and create a new folder in here called Firmware

5.	Open the 2.0.2.A.0.24_for_X10-flasher folder and copy all the contents to the Firmware Folder

6.	Open the loader sin folder then x10 folder and copy the Loader.sin to the Firmware folder

7.	In the Flash ToolRelease folder click the x10flash file

8.	After a few seconds the x10flasher by Bin4ry window opens click Flash

9.	The Select Firmware window will open click on the Firmware folder option DO NOT click OK

10.	Connect the phone in flash mode (phone turned off, hold down back key, insert USB cable)

11.	As soon as green light appears release back key and now click OK from the Select Firmware window at step 9, after 10 seconds or so you get the below

When it says flashing finished close the windows, unplug the USB from your phone give it a few seconds before you press the on button, you will now have the updated and rooted version as shown by rabetionline in post #27 and providing you have done step 1 to 3 everything will work.

I have tried to make this very simple for those that are having trouble understanding the Install Instructions on post #1.

Also with JIT enabled WiFi does work fine in call volume seems same as before but I have never had a problem with it, it has always been loud enough I use it at around 75% and its fine as is everything else

MFLOPS on previous 2.1 was 6.913

MFLOPS on updated 2.1 with JIT 17.891
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] XB_LI:
I'm using the per-rooted version but i realised that it would crashed to my ADW EX as stopped working when i pressed the home or setting...really suck!by the way,disappointed on this updated...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dachao:
Has anybody gotten the update for the X10a? I got the gloda generic X10a software on my phone and there is no update yet.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] XB_LI:
And one more thing's the App2sd and JIT enabler by xrecovery also have problem on the pre-rooted version please fix it...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ssj_jaypee:
I installed JIT via xrecovery after I flashed to this new pre rooted rom, but I dont know if it was successful.

How can you tell if JIT is working on your xperia?

My highest score in quadrant is only 650.

The phone doesnt really seem that much faster at all.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] chiefy009:
Check linpack score should be around 17 with JiT
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ssj_jaypee:
I got a 16.275

seems a little lower, whats the normal score without JIT?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] chiefy009:
Without about 5, so that's about right
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ssj_jaypee:
damn, only a 5 on a stock xperia?

thats poor.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rrusso:
Ive installed on my X10a and looks everything ok.

The only thing that seems not to be working is the busybox from market...

Is it normal?

Ive installed the firmware and JIT from xRecovery
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] chiefy009:
Yeah think so can't remember been a while since mine has been stock
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] chiefy009:
For some reason the market busybox picks up the recover busybox and wont install over it, I removed busybox manually and added market one but the recover wont work so had to copy files back. Everything that needs it works fine though
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Flo95:
I think 6.8-7.0.

Mine gets 17.579 with JIT
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dachao:
You are right. I got 6.9 without JIT.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] olafski72:
I think I am missing something, you can load this ROM with Xrecovery... but you can install Xrecovery only when it is rooted. At least, that is what I thought.... I have installed my X10 today again via SEUS and now I cannot root it anymore. SO I am very interessted in this solution.

One other question, it says generic 2.0.2... But this is 2.1 ?

Sorry for these noob questions!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Soheil_rf:
[Q]

i need to use x10flasher to flash .sin files ?

i install only update.zip , every things is ok !
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] olafski72:
How did you install update.zip ? I think you need Xrecovery, but I cannot install Xrecovery since I cannot root my phone anymore since I reinstalled it today via SEUS...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] chiefy009:
You have to flash, your baseband should be .49
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Soheil_rf:
if i now flash .sin files , my app & data will be remove ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
I my wallpapers to work, but now all the thumbnails are scrambled in mediascape.

Also, did anyone else lose Voice Search capabilities? The entire Google system app is gone. Should I try to reflash?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ssj_jaypee:
not sure if this has been discussed already but is anybody phone randomly rebooting now?

I was browsing online and suddenly the phone rebooted, same thing happened wnhen I was opening up an app.

Man this is the problem with custom roms....
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] djkidy123:
Same problem here,i'm back on original firmware,waithing for root..
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bbvg:
Hi all,

Excellent job, but i have a (serious) problem that i can't figure out since i flashed with this rom.

Whenever i want to sync my contacts/open Market/use anything that needs google apps (a lot of things), i get a message "the google app shut down suddenly" (it's in french so approxammtive translation + it goes away so fast i can't read all of it).

Has anyone had this problem too? or have an idea of what to do?

Thx in advance

EDIT : False alarm. Apparently my update.zip file was incomplete on the SD card. Used a fresh one and everything works fine now...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] pedrocel85:
Hey bro,

This in not a custon rom, its a stock Se rom.

Main problemas may ocurr if people dont flash sin files.

Do you flash it?

Do your latest updates?

Hey bro,

Re-check your files and try again.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] chongbh:
Guys,

I cannot send sms more than 2 messages length after flashing to this firmware, is it a problem with this firmware?

Is it same as the original firmware?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
In call volume may be a bit better, but nothing noticeable. Won't know for sure until I try at the next Magic game. I'll be sure to post it here.

I'm confused about where to get JIT. 1)Can anyone point me in the right direction? Is it in xRecovery?

Also, I posted earlier that Google system app Voice Search is missing in my newly X10i, formerly X10a. And a problem with Mediascape. 2)Can I use SEUS to repair this update, or will SEUS no longer help with this ROM because of root and xRecovery? 3)If SEUS won't work, will repeating this update xRecovery + X10 flash work?

Or this? 4) I have a 2.1 Google apps update.zip I made a month ago with adb Droid Explorer. Can I copy it into my sd card and load with xRecovery like we did in these steps to get it back? 5) If not, can I find it online and install with adb commands? *6) Will either be permanent so the next time I flash it will be there? I'm looking for a permanent solution.

Any direct answers would be appreciated. I don't want to pull another all nighter of trial and error trying to figure it out myself.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] batman_112:
Here is JiT.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mk2rocco:
JIT enabler is on my sd card but won't show up when I go to install it. Actually, no .zip files show up in my recovery menu.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] batman_112:
Try extracting it.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Hawkysoft:
dude thanks for all the hard work, i really appreciate it

and it runs smooth as hell didnt had a single problem well 1 random reboot after i installed it like 1hour later under my 1st call, but never ever after that

i got jit enabled also pritty happy with that, but shouldnt it be a little higher with quadrant? i gained scores like 760+ before now i wont get higher than 728

btw i also installed a new launcher called "go launcer" its free and works pritty awwesome with it :)

thanks allot for everything bro
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] XB_LI:
Sorry,may i know does anyone here has the problem of the App2sd after installed per-rooted version?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
x10a update .24 to x10i...Still no Voice Search????

I've posted a few times about losing system app Voice Search (google app) with update, but no one has offered any help. I just downloaded the .24 files again, and put a fresh update.zip on sd card and new firmware in flasher tool, and re-flashed. STILL NO VOICE SEARCH. I did it all a second time and still just standard Google Search.

I am wondering, since no one has responded to my earlier posts, if the x10i comes with Voice Search? The x10a does. The google search bar located across the top of the home screen has a microphone tab and a magnifying glass tab, and you can voice search in apps like Yellow Pages.

Can anyone clear this up for me? I am about to go back to x10a.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] XB_LI:
dude,i had flash back to the last version...i think zdz version's not stable...now i having the problem about the market after i APP2SD it show stop working unexpected...zzz!!i was regreted to updated to the zdz version...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
X10a users...

I just discovered after multiple reflashes that Voice Search app only comes on X10a in 2.1, so you will lose that app by going to x10i. You cannot download it from AppBrain or Market, because it's only available with 2.2 Froyo. I couldn't find a download anywhere online that would work on my x10i.

Now have to figure out how to flash back to x10a. Sorry about all the posts.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mk2rocco:
It would no longer be a .zip file if I extracted it. Anyone else having this problem?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] XB_LI:
what you have to do is put the JIT.zip into anyone of the folder in ur sdcard eg:newfolder/sdcard

when you install the custom.zip just choose from the folder,tat's all
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mk2rocco:
Got it, thank you very much.

does anyone knw how to fix the busybox it seems like after i installed this firmware i cant install my busybox the status stated "failed!"can anyone help me fix this tq in advance
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ag4751:
If you have used xrecovery as zdzihu says in his post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=9561641

DO NOT replace busybox otherwise xrecovery wont work, you don't need a newer version, busybox is already installed by xrecovery, if you do replace it xrecovery will not work
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] wblancqu:
Is it possible, having the files of SEUS of the new firmware, to decrypt these files, adapt them to become rooted, and then reflashing?

I'm asking this because the In-Call volume is better for me for the regionalized firmware of my country (Belgian generic) than in the Nordic or world generic. I suppose this is because of some parameters being set. Obviously I don't want to lose this.

So what I want is Belgian generic prerooted firmware. Anyone knowing how this can be done?

Thanks
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ag4751:
There are no problems at all with mine, everything works perfectly, GPS, 3G, WiFi and no random reboots.

This isn't a custom rom this is SE'e latest release version but zdzihu has rooted it that is all nothing else has been changed, if you updated using SEUS to the new version you will lose all root access and at this time there is no root app like z4root that will unlock it

Your random reboots are more likely to be caused by something you have installed on the phone that isn't compatible with SE's new update.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Kalirajan:
thanks for the links

THanks for the Links and in depth steps. Thanks to "zdzihu " for the rooted update.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] olafski72:
But how can you load this image with Xrecovery when you need root to install Xrecovery in the first place? Am I missing something here?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] batman_112:
The old firmaware is rootable with Z4root. So you will have to install X-recovery on your OLD, rooted firmware before you attempt to install the new one with X-recovery

Hi I posted it on the flash thread, but I will ask it here too. I have my phone usb broken, is there a way to flash it without the usb? I am pretty sure that the answer is no, but who knows....may be one of the genius that are around here knows if there is a chance.

Build number,baseband and fw version updated not sure if kb lag is fixed yet,but will give it a try.got play now app LOL.
