hot fixes

Hey, Have to say a huge congrats to everyone that took part in freeX10 and the walk through. read it once blasted through it in about 20minutes i had my phone done, and its running flawlessly! I have had no issues, i can still run xrecovery to install themes and such, no random reboots, only thing is the video camera is not working, can take still but not video. I have since done 3 other phones for friends and its loved by the masses. My only question is how and where do i find the hotfixes so i can apply them as they are released.

THanks

would i be correct in assuming this would be a fairly failsafe way of installing this?

boot phone

login to market etc

install gapps_2801_FreeX10.zip

or can i just go with the latest gapps pack from the first install?

About the battery.. for me it lasts pretty good since i wiped the battery stats, deleted the news and weather widget, and started using juice defender.

And about the being stuck at se screen, did you reboot between install files? If not try again with the inserted reboots and let it load fully between each.

Hmmm that could be true since I never noticed the battery draining this much until I installed DT and that was after I flashed to beta 2.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k1sr:
Thank guys - might try wiping the battery stats, but how do I do that? I assume it's in the battery use option in settings, but it's only got 'refresh'

Cheers!

EDIT: Although if it is DT, can it be removed...? Hope so...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lockon Stratos:
@K1sr You have to boot to xrecovery then go to advanced options. There you'll see wipe batt stats.

As far as DT is concerned, unless a bunch of users or the devs confirm, this is merely speculation on my part. I never had DT when I flashed to 2.1 so I can't be 100% sure. It just so happened that I put DT along with 2.2 and that's when I noticed it.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayJ-1974:
You'd know if it was because you'd have had to partition it yourself, if windows detects it as almost full GB then it isn't partitioned.

Search for Mini Partition Tool on the net and format it fat32 if it's more than 4GB in size.

I know this was a bug in beta1 but I thought it was fixed with a hotfix for beta1 and subsequently fixed in beta2 and 3, I can't comment on whether it's still a bug in beta3 as I trend to used full MP3 tracks as ringtones.

I would suggest you report it and temporarily use a longer ringtone.

After having done my phone and one other i did one for a friend and its stuck at the sony ericsson logo. Cant get past it have waited upwards of an hour. Tried a battery pull, same thing. Whats the best route to get it going again. Should have mentioned it was a beta 3 install.

having been playing around severely with freex10 beta3, ive noticed even with the beta3 hotfix, if i have my phone turned off, then plug it in to charge and try and turn it on during charging it wont. i have to unplug it then turn it on and plug it back in. I dropped beta3 on two other phones aswell and hotfixed them and have noticed the same thing occur with them. also one thing i miss is how when charging the led changed gradients from red-orange-green as it charged depending on the level.

As i am not allowed to give feedback in the original freex10 thread because of beeing to unexperiemced... i will do this right here.

I like the rom very much but found two bugs which i didnt find in the forums.

First the wifi is not connecting all the time. When i enter the reach of a known wifi network or when i wake up the phone after a while, it tries to connect to the wifi three times but fails with that. then it sets the network's status to "deactived". then it is necessary to connect manually by pressing conncect to network, then it works fine and connects automatically.

Second thing i found is related to downloading stuff from the internet. When i try to download e.g. a pdf various processes (for example android.media) force close and keep crashing until you reboot. i experienced this with dolphin hd, but did not try other browsers, so i can only say something about this browser.

I hope i could help with my feedback and that its not all old stuff you still know and are bored of. ;-)

I managed to uninstall debug copies of the following apps which came installed in FreeX10 Beta3 Froyo 2.2.1

.:: Apps ::.

1. Youtube

2. Gmail

3. Google Maps

4. Twitter

5. Facebook

This resolves

1. "incompatible update" errors

2. Unsuccessful installation

To Uninstall you must be familiar with ADB Shell Commands

I will show you how to Uninstall Google Maps.. (rest of the apps can be removed the same way)

You need:

1. Android Platform Tools (Google it)

2. Titanium Backup (used to get the application package fully qualified names..)

Procedure:

After installing ADB

1. Open Command Prompt and type

adb remount

adb shell rm /system/sd/app/*maps*

adb shell rm /system/sd/dalvik-cache/*maps*

adb shell rm /system/app/*maps*

adb uninstall com.google.android.apps.maps <- use titanium backup to get this

if you get the result as Success then the app is removed :D

Open Market and install Google Maps with nav :D

you can also use the find command to look for all the possible occurrence of any application (Google "how to use find command in Linux")

you can use titanium backup to get the application's official package name

I am sorry if things are not clear.. this is my first time .. :) I will try to help you if you Unsuccessful

Hope this helps..
