Basics

1st thing which u need to do is to know wht model number/baseband/build/OS version is on ur phone. For this go to: Settings -> About Phone

What it all means for u:

Kernel version:

Currently we all are stuck with Kernel version: 2.6.29 so don’t bother too much with it. Though each firmware has certain kernel modifications, even if u flash (only) the BB package the kernel also gets updated.

Some devs like Bin4ry, zdzihu & jerpelea have managed to bypass the bootloader and load custom kernels!!! so look forth for new custom kernels with TONS of features!!!

For current Custom Kernel Development related info go to: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1027111

Model number:

The X10 has two models X10i and X10a. They differ in the spectrum of frequencies supported for 3G/WCDMA http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_xperia_x10-2964.php

X10i => HSDPA 900 / 1700 / 2100

X10a => HSDPA 800 / 850 / 1900 / 2100

Keep in mind that this model number is very important if u intend to flash firmwares/basebands (more on this in subsequent posts)

Android version: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_(operating_system)

S.E. officially launched this phone with android version 1.6 (aka Cupcake) which is fairly old

They recently (Nov 2010) gave *most* of the users android version 2.1 (aka Éclair)

If u want to use themes, optimizations, tweaks for ur phone they are mostly for specific OS versions

Baseband version: [linked to firmware version]

(Crudely) this is a software interface which improves gsm/3g performance, adds features like dual touch, acts as a base for the main OS to ‘talk-to’ the hardware on the phone [I know this explanation isn’t precise even partly incorrect.. if someone can help me out I will update it]

*** this is extremely important part as many ROMs are specific to particular Baseband versions [where ever possible I will post the requirement of baseband in the links to the ROMs]

*** Dual touch was introduced very recently (around first week of Jan 2011) so if u have not updated the phone after Dec 2010 u mostly are missing Dual Touch!!! [to get dual touch only head over to: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=920669 ]

Build number: [aka firmware version]

This is dependent on which firmware u flash on ur phone and is linked to the baseband version.

Btw some devs use this field to add their own ‘signature’ to the ROM so if u are using custom ROMs this field might be varying. Though the Baseband version for a particular firmware remains same.

Then once busybox is installed, go ahead and install xRecovery (next section)

Recovery

more specifically xRecovery (thank you zdzihu!!!)

there is an updated recovery, FreeXperia recovery by jerpelea & zdzihu...

[IMP] you can use the latest Flashtool (v0.2.8 and above) to ROOT / install BUSYBOX / install recovery

this is a tool which is triggered be to launched, by the user, at the booting process and allows the users to perform important system related tasks like updating system with special scripts/programs; install custom roms; take FULL backup of system,data,cache partition; restoring these backups (specific partitions like data can also be restored so ur apps can be fully restored even if u change rom, no need to reinstall all apps!).

xRecovery: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=859571

Requirements:

1. Phone must be rooted

2. Busybox from the market installed

few things to keep in mind before u install xRecovery

*** [this is only for users on 2.1 roms] ***

*** 2.2/2.3 ROMs use slightly different xRecovery methods which are implemented within the ROM itself. so thats why DO NOT INSTALL THIS IF YOU ARE ALREADY USING 2.2/2.3 CUSTOM ROMS ***

*** READ THE FIRST POST OF THE THREAD http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=859571 CLEARLY BEFORE INSTALLING ***

there is also an alternative manual install method:

*first go to the X10MODTOOL thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=842060 and read how to use it *

* Make sure your phone is connected in debug mode, you have root privileges, and unsecured your device's shell (shell root). Refer to the above Rooting section for more on this*

1) Download the apk, rename it to xrecovery.ZIP

2) Unpack the file, find ./res/raw folder inside. It should contain 3 files (chargemon, busybox, xrecovery.tar)

3) use the tool X10MODTOOL to push these 3 files in the /system/bin directory

if you dont get any errors in the log thats it xRecovery is installed!!!

once xRecovery is installed, to get into recovery REBOOT the phone and when u see the Sony Ericsson text logo:

repeatedly keep pressing/tapping the BACK key

... until u see:

in case it doesnt show up, and the system continues to boot like normal, you have a problem... read the posts in the xRecovery thread... most of you doubts will be cleared...

*** warnings ***

1) restoring data partition between different OS versions may not work (some froyo/gb apps would not work on eclair and vice-versa)[this can be one of the reasons if u are facing with many FCs when u restore data partition)

2) DO NOT INSTALL THIS IF YOU ARE ALREADY USING 2.2/2.3 CUSTOM ROMS

3) DO NOT UPDATE/REINSTALL BUSYBOX IF U ALREADY HAVE xRecovery WORKING

*** to access files within the xrecovery backups:

[How-To] Extracting/Accessing xRecovery/Nandroid backup (.img) files http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=961164

if u have used the older version of xRecovey (0.1/0.2) and it worked for you then there is no need to update to 0.3

ADDITIONAL:

there is also a xRecovery-charge-offline patch. this patch IS SPECIFIC TO xRecovery v0.3 and WILL WORK ONLY WITH 2.1 BASED ROMS. DO NOT INSTALL IT ON 2.2/2.3 ROMS

I have made a script for Rebooting into xRecovery from OS

Thanks!

Thank you very much for the useful information. I have a quick question to you, if I am using custom ROM (CM7 ver 009 by Jerpelea), can I format my memory card? Where does xrecovery and busybox are stored? Is my original ROM (2.1) still resides on the phone or completely gone?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crowds:
you can format sdcard. any file tha is required for xRecovery work is stored on sdcard.

your original 2.1 rom?!

you only have CM7 ver 009 period!

what you might have is a backup on xRecovery folder. if so copy that from sdcard > xrecovery > bla bla bla to wherever
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anujbatra:
If files required for xrecovery are stored on sdcard then how can i format it?! By this i'll loose xrecovery right? I wanted to know, is Eclair rom is overwritten by CM7?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DooMLoRD:
the files required for xrecovery itself are not stored on sdcard... the backups created by xrecovery are stored on sdcard...

and yes eclair rom will be overwritten by any custom rom be it CM7/freex10/etc...

hey Xda team

Can you please send the DD command for imaging the phone memory so that i will be able to analyze the results

I am a student doing my Masters in forensics

I have rooted my x10 and entered the commands to get inside the adb shell with SU previleges

please suggest some tools to analyse as andrew hoog has made the open source forensics tool only available and law enforcement agencies

Thanks in advance

Please help??

i think the dd command is already there by default on stock android ( u do not even need to root for that)...

to find out where is the dd binary use the following command from the folder with adb tools...

adb shell "which dd"

generally it will be in /system/bin/

also i am curious how will the dd command be useful for forensics?

one more suggestion: have u tried WinHex?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevejerry07:
hi doomlord,

Thanks for replying back..

I need a raw image of the phone memory..

i can get the image of the memory card which can be passed on to FTK or encase and analyse the results

But in case of phone memory(128 mb i think) it is not available as a drive for which we need to image through the adb shell. thats my understanding so far.. correct me if i am wron

I ll try winhex and thanks for the suggestion..:)

does any of you have the open source android forensics tool by andrew hoog if so please provide the links.. will be really grateful..

Thanks in advance

Stevejerry
