Hey, do i need to download a newer baseband (BB 2.1.71) ?
[Sony Cross-Device General] zax10:
If I flash via flash tools I do not need to change build prop. Right?
[Sony Cross-Device General] ddye:
Guys, I just update to the so called new upgrade release from SE. It is dull, uninteresting, not creative, and most of buggy. My phone was such a fun with the Wolfbreaks latest ROM (Wolf 009). In fact most of the functionalities in this dull release are there but with a better functioning camera and Music. That is right, try music with this new f.... release and you will see what I mean. I think SE should STOP making phones!!!!!! Shame SE!!! We were banging and cursing on Wolf, Trip, Z, J, Corbato, ... for 'not making this', /not making that ...'. But the company to whom I paid 500+ USD is such a FFFFFFFFFFFFF
[Sony Cross-Device General] hasei:
No you don't need to change build.prop.
[Sony Cross-Device General] newalopez:
Yes, ftf aro
[Sony Cross-Device General] zax10:
Thanks Has... Guys remember this is a new rom. They have to settle before becoming fluid. Not to mention this is the very first release.
[Sony Cross-Device General] a.monteiro:
it's the full firmware so the baseband is included

sure, my local official firmware is also x10a, but i've replaced it for a x10i months ago with absolutely no difference.
[Sony Cross-Device General] maxpower1985:
just wait couple of weeks (days?).. custom roms will be better ;)

Where can I download v 2.3.3 for my X10 mini PRO?
[Sony Cross-Device General] a.monteiro:
minis and x8 won't receive an official 2.3.3, check the mini PRO forums for custom roms
[Sony Cross-Device General] Beedo34:
worked on an american x10a rooted first try, no problems. THANKS DEVS! HOPE TO SEE A ROOT SOLUTION SOON
[Sony Cross-Device General] a.monteiro:
flashed it over my custom froyo, everything went well.

configuring stuff, it seems to work fine so far, it lags but i'll use it for a couple of days until deciding if i go back to wolfXperia or keep it. :)

i'm having a problem, today I used flashtool to flash to 2.3.3, now I want to go back to 2.1 and this is what happens!

wtf by AbdurahmanL, on Flickr
[Sony Cross-Device General] aznracer62:
The flashtool won't let me click on the root button. I've rooted my phone before on another computer using flashtool but the computer I'm using now won't let me. Am I missing something?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Bwyan Benton:
If your using the new 2.3.3 firmware, it isnt rootable by flashtool atm.
[Sony Cross-Device General] aznracer62:
I'm on stock 2.1.

EDIT: Forgot to turn on debugging mode. Works now
[Sony Cross-Device General] easyyu:
Anybody? where?
[Sony Cross-Device General] spazo:
If i flash to 2.3 and don't like it will flashtool work to let me go back to 2.1?
[Sony Cross-Device General] stan.s:
This is a well known and documented issue. Every time you stick the phone to a different port windows adds registry entries with different id's, just like it does with every device. The flashtool usually assumes the first entry, though it usually goes through the bus/hub entries searching for the device. Your front and back ports may be different controllers.

The simple answer is to only use one/the same port all the time.
[Sony Cross-Device General] monteiro-ribas:
man wake up... 2.3 is only avalaible for x10... xperia mini will never see 2.3 :rolleyes:

An edit;

When I go thru help/log level/errors, the error.log appears again and inside there is a suprise:

I think there is something wrong with my system. I may format/reinstall windows soon because of this :P

btw, i have to go; after 3 hours of sleep, I'll have 2 final exams in 2 hours. Thanks for your help...
[Sony Cross-Device General] hknsckn:
Long version is of the log attached.

Actually it's not my main purpose to flash my x10 now. I just want to help you to develop the program. :-)

PC Companion Update

I tried the update from SE, backed up via Xrecovery 1st

Found it made these "improvements"

Removed ROOT, used new flash to fix, one cycle

Removed Dual touch - used new flash to fix

Also removed Xrecovery and JIT.

Thanks for the new tool, VERY NICE

Flash only Kernel on 0.2.4?

Since the FW can be bundled now, i was wondering if you can still flash a single SIN file (e.g. Kernel.sin) like in the 0.2.3 version to enable, for example, DT or do you have to flash the whole firmware?
[Sony Cross-Device General] nicknitro:
Hi, Great App v0.2.3 and 0.2.4 but when i use the option "Clean (root Needed)" after Phone Restarts Itself just Hangup on Sony Ericsson Logo and Low Light on, can´t pass from there.

Ho can i solve this?

It´s really painfull to manually delete the SE Crap one by one.

Thanks

[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
When you create a bundle, you choose the files you add in it. You can only add the kernel.sin file.

About time I registered. I've been checking this site and the great work it has been doing for months.

Would appreciate any help with geting this new flash tool onto my phone so I can hook it up with some duel touch.

Ive rooted and have xrecovery. I've installed flashtool 0.2.4 onto my computer and installed the drivers, but when I connect my phone in flash mode and press flash, I haven't got any firmware in the window to install. The green light stays on my phone for about 15 secs then the phone boots up.

Any idea on what im doing wrong?

am I able to transfer flashtool 0.2.4 to my phone and open it with xrecovery?

I've been checking threads for hours but can't work it out.

Thanks, Luke

Iv read that i need to turn of the phone hold some buttons in and stuff do i need to do that here too?

[Sony Cross-Device General] Lofwyr:
Hi People.

I´m new with the XperiaX10, i since i'm getting old, i´m becoming too fearfull of doing anything that could 'brick' my fone. :( - I´ve tried root once, but the app crashed and i had to reinstall Sony firmware because any further try to root accused "phone already rooted", while any attempt to unroot accused "phone not rooted".

I´ve saw in this tool a chance to simplify the process to root my phone (my intention is to remove some Sony apps from the phone).

Actualy my fone is a X10a with firmware "2.1-update1".

(Base band: 2.0.46 - Kernel 2.6.29 SEMCUser@SEMChost #1)

Version 2.0.A.0.504

I can use this app just to root the phone?

If yes... which steps i must follow?

Thanks for the attention, and sorry to be so noooooob.
[Sony Cross-Device General] caqo71:
I always used the same front USB port in my PC, the same... and never worked to complete the flash procedure. I posted here that when I used a WinXP machine, the procedure was successful, but in that XP machine I used the back usb connectors, so, last time, I connected in my Win7 x64 PC the USB cable on back port, and the procedure was ok.

So, I can tell that I agree with you about the USB controller. I have a powerfull PC, and The front USB ports are 2.0 like the back ones. If the front USB are 1.1, then we could think that the old 1.1 controller is the faulty one.

At this point, I think that mentioning in the first post of this thread that it's advised to use the back USB ports to flash procedure will be a good idea.

Cheers mate, and thanks for make me things more clear. :)

If you're trying to flash with the phone turned on, then there's your problem.

You need to be in Flash mode to flash the phone (Phone turned off, holding the back button while connecting the phone to the computer)

The USB Debugging and Unknown sources is only for rooting, installing xRecovery, and JIT on 2.1 (Éclair)

[Sony Cross-Device General] mingkee:
I had hard time used flashtool first (missing flash driver), but once I installed SEUS, it went through (2.1->2.3.3->2.1->root+recovery).

Since 2.3.3 root can be done by doing kernel swap (by aZuZu), this option can be added as well as add updated xrecovery.

Mine was rooted by using version change (downgrade to 2.1 using flashtool and turn on once in order to enable USB debug + unknown source) and doing rooting + xrecovery installation in order to install pre-rooted 2.3.3.

I've sorted this out! Had to use a special shielded microUSB cable to be able to complete the update using SEUS without loosing connection.

About flashing, I had no luck. Always the same error asking to allow untrusted apps and usb debugging...

Anyone did this with success? I had unknown sources and usb debug on but still got the error. Any hints?

[Sony Cross-Device General] Montague:
Anyone knows what might go wrong on my x10?

I used the flash tools to root the stock 2.3.3, everything went perfect and the flashtool said the phone is now rooted and installed with Xrecovery.

When I try to use the "clean" function offered by the flashtool, I clicked on those system default apps that I want them to be removed and click okay, the log displayed the history of the cleaning process fine and reboot my phone. However after the reboot I can still see the apps are still there they were not removed during the process at all.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Hzu:
It wont work as flashtool is outdated.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Montague:
I used the flashtool .2.9.1 beta, is that the latest flashtool that we have right now?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Hzu:
It's the latest version but it has not been updated for a long time now.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Montague:
so basically we are not able to remove the system apps so far?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Hzu:
Yes, until B or A update the program, we will be able to remove them. But I think there is an alternative, I am not sure what it is.

WinRar:

*Now the problem is, when I rename the files to SIN and make bundle FTF with Flash Tool, it stuck, I try every file there, but it can't flash them

**I need it because I have Prototypes, and they flash-able only with Flash Tool.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
I did the same and had the same issue.

what can be tested :

- Flash using Wotan client.

- Repair using SEUS (just to download files in blob_fs folder.

- decrypt and create bundle from SEUS files in blob_fs

For the moment I don't have any information on how to use Wotan files in flashtool bundles.
[Sony Cross-Device General] E15i:
*I can't flash with Wotan, I have E10, X10 and R800 that all are prototypes,so:

a. Wotan Server only can download them, but stuck on "booting phone"

b. SEUS not work with Brown kits (mine are Brown). so I cant update or repair.

c. that can be useful for other users who want flash files for any device if they have any problem with the Client or have prototype kits.

**Maybe it's possible to make Wotan to work with prototypes? recognize them as not prototypes?
