[General Questions and Answers] Kris Kelly:
I'm new to all this and thought I was doing well up untill this point.

I know I should read the development topic however it is 5105 posts long over 511 pages ha ha.

I tried a search and it is returning me to the development page with no joy.

It's probably something really stupid (as I am new to this) I have followed instructions to install FreeX10 Beta 4 incuding making a backup of 2.1 using xRecovery.

When I reboot phone in xrecovery after installing freex10 i get the freex10 logo, then it loads into 2.2.1 but after that i get no radio signal and phone restarts every 30 secs.

I read that this is normal for 2 to 3 restarts but i'm now on about the 50th.

Any ideas would be great. thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] buxlo122:
I am having the same isssue.
[General Questions and Answers] walleykool:
I have this same issue and there has been no solution for it

I have installed over 6ROMS on my phone but still get the same issue, battery gets hot, smelly and phone restarts every 30secs till battery runs out of power. this has been tested with IMUI rom, Gingerbread, Froyo 2.2.1.. all downloaded from this forum. and when i restored my default original SE x10i backup phone becomes normal again.

This is being a serious issue to me as I find the SE ROM very irritatingly slow. These custom ROMS are said to be working perfectly all across the forum but here I am.

Please somebody help!!!
[EVO Shift 4G Themes and Apps] pwrmedia:
Ok guys, so I've edited the build.prop files on both the stock and WarmSense ROMs to change the LCD setting to 160, which works, but @ the expense of having many HTC apps FC (mail, calculator, people, bookmarks). Phone, messaging and internet work fine, but I'd like to edit the file without losing any of the others.

Any thoughts? The only change being made is to the LCD setting.
[EVO Shift 4G Themes and Apps] ahager88:
Try going into spare parts and disabling compatibility mode. That works in aosp roms, though not sure on sense core apps, etc.
[EVO Shift 4G Themes and Apps] pwrmedia:
Was a no go. I'd really just like to push the stock android contacts.apk but can't get it to install. 3rd party apps are fine for calc, mail and clock so those aren't a priority. But contacts are...lol
[EVO Shift 4G Themes and Apps] pwrmedia:
Downloaded "Contapps" from the Market. PERFECT. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] lightyear420:
Ok, guys...you heard me right!!! George Hotz (aka Geohot) has said in his blog (http://geohot.com/) that he has every intention to get his hands on the Xperia Play so we all have a jailbroken PSP phone!! I hope this means that with the help from Geohot we will have what we need to get out X10's bootloader cracked.

Here's the quote:

I will be the first person in line on the launch date of the Xperia Play, and itching to get my hands on the Next GEOHOT Project.
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
You mean root, not jailbreak :)
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
He doesn't even mean rooting he means cracking the bootloader... Lol this site makes me laugh fairly frequently.
[XPERIA X10 General] lightyear420:
I do mean root, but Geohot always calls his work "jailbreak" so that's what it will be called....and from what I can tell, he will not stop at rooting when the bootloader also needs cracking. So really, this would go beyond just root access if he's also cracking the bootloader.

He also rooted the PS3, but search for 'PS3 root' and 'PS2 jailbreak' and see which returns more results.
[XPERIA X10 General] a2ha:
Awesome.! But wait..... oh yeah... x10 is just old and im getting a new phone next month...
[XPERIA X10 General] Surge1:
lol i suggested he do this.....have the email in my sentbox and everything (a few weeks ago)

Less than a year for a phone is old? Maybe for consumer sheep.. No wonder the world is in the state it is, we allow ourselves to be raped and pillaged by capitalist greed, and instead of focusing on what is really going on, we worry about getting a new model phone every 8 or 9 months..
[XPERIA X10 General] caifanX10:
Rich and fancy boys can spend a lot of money in anything, no matter if that's a good or bad product, just because is new and they wanna be "in fashion" with the latest stuff in the market ;)

Back to the topic... Those are good news. And when Geohot says "jailbreaking" I think he means to actually crack the bootloader.

[XPERIA X10 General] viper619:
Any news if he will crack the x10 bootloader?
[XPERIA X10 General] bleached45:
You know, I have been wondering this for a little bit. How do you think Sony will implement the playstation integration into the play? If it is just an app, like a psp emulator (seems too simple to be the case) then would there be a chance to port and mod it (to accept touchscreen input instead of hardware input)?

It may be possible to get playstation open to all android devices, I would love to see that.
[XPERIA X10 General] lightyear420:
I sort of expected to find an android app that would allow you to connect to ps3 in SOME way, but I haven't seen anything other than the crappy PSN app...no unofficial apps even (except for ps3brew)
[XPERIA X10 General] forzanerazzurri:
Geohot is a freaking loser.
[XPERIA X10 General] alankstiyo:
hmmm well cause of his "help" ps3 owners (like me) can be banned from PSN just like 360 users (again like me xD)

remember he's being sued by Sony so maybe telling I will do this will alert Sony
[XPERIA X10 General] lightyear420:
Yeah, loser with a 45lb nutsack and the potential to make well-over $100k a year :p The guy's got balls of steel....are you brave enough to tell sony to **** themselves, you'll do what you want with your own property??? I think not!! lol

Hey genius, he's in the middle of a lawsuit with Sony and he posted that on his blog that's got over 300,000 followers. I think they already know :p

And if you don't want to get banned, don't install CFW or don't cry when you get banned. Why are people just crybabies about online?? "oh noes!!!!!! I can't play video games all day with my loser 'friends' online....I'm gonna cry about it some more"

This part is for everyone:

Sony is also being sued for removing otherOS from the console because it was originally marketed as a stock feature. People paid for the console with the expectations of being able to use linux, then were threatened with the loss of other features (like the ability to watch bluray movies) if they didn't update, which removed the option to install linux, then took the partition on the hard drive dedicated to linux and wiped it clean. The worst part is this: 40gb consoles, for example, were sold with a 20gb ps3 partition, and a 20gb linux partition....when otherOS was removed, it rendered the linux partition completely useless. The partition was not added to the PS3 partition, but rather lost....so if you bought a 40gb console, after the v3.21 update you owned a 20gb console. All I have to say is "what the ****, sony????"
[XPERIA X10 General] lightyear420:
sorry, double post
[XPERIA X10 General] bleached45:
Oh yeah, I didn't know this, but good, they deserve it, this was a big feature for me.

It was ether update... or have a pretty useless system...
[XPERIA X10 General] lightyear420:
Yeah, this counter-suit was brought on by geohot himself as a civil suit (The People vs Sony Computer Entertainment) and he's gone into amazing detail on specifically what grounds he is suing them on in his blog. It's a very interesting read if you have about a half hour to kill.

[XPERIA X10 General] kinglargo:
Sony did what they had to do to keep piracy out. Think for the devloppers a little... piracy is going to make game dev lose money = less game dev = les good games.
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
hahaha I'm surprised you don't own an iphone... you sound like the type that buys whatever you're told at face value.
[XPERIA X10 General] MJ_QaT:
I have to agree with you, if I had a job developing games, what will happen to me if those games I developed didn't bring any revenues to the company I'm working with because of piracy?

most people who agree with what this "Geohot" is doing are cheap people who are trying to get everything for free instead of working hard to earn their cash. And if you claim that you work so hard and want to save money, think about those developers who work 100 times harder than you to earn this cash. Stop being selfish

Rooting is a different thing as it only gives you full access to your device, but if you're thinking about getting paid apps and games for free, guess what, this forum does not support it.
[XPERIA X10 General] cruzin_cruzing:
Geohot's purpose straight from his own website.
[XPERIA X10 General] lightyear420:
It is actually a proven fact that a vast majority of people who illegally download games would have never bought the game if it were not posted online, so your claim about dev's losing money is fankly 100% bull**** lol

I bought a ps3 specifically to install CFW and pirate games. I don't give two ****ing ****s what anyone thinks about that. I have a full-time job working 50 hours a week, and I still can't afford any games lmao. Even the games that I do download I play until I beat, then I delete them, because my HDD is too small for PS3's massive games. So really the only people who are losing out are companies like blockbuster and gamefly, because I am basically pirating a game rental :p

One final note:

I did not buy a PS3 until two weeks ago. I bought it specifically because I can install CFW and download free games. If that were not possible, I would not have bought a ps3 at all. In order to play pirated games you must also own a retail game that must stay inside the blu ray drive while you are playing said game....I bought both the console and the game brand new. So really, I supported the developers more because I pirate games than I would have if I could not pirate them.
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
I don't pirate games at all (I'm an electrical engineer, I can easily afford whatever games i want), but if I buy a 40 gb ps3, I expect a 40gb ps3, not a 20 gb ps3 because sony decided to go back on a promise they made to me when I purchased it.

Your logic is retarded...
[XPERIA X10 General] ixemun:
and for those who doesn't agree with Geohot and still hangs around XDA board to root their phones are either stupid or hypocrite.

Geohot isn't promoting piracy, he hacks the PS3 for one reason, total control over his own property, to be able to customize it to his liking, that which includes having OtherOS or even improving performances of his PS3, sounds familiar? oh wait, us rooting our phones and have total control over it (over-clocking, installing custom ROM that suits our needs and etc).

If you want to blame someone about piracy, Geohot isn't the one.
[XPERIA X10 General] MJ_QaT:
Well, I was aiming at those who wants free pirated games, if Geohot's aim is only for root then as I mention... different story
[XPERIA X10 General] MJ_QaT:
alright Mr. Electrical Engineer, guess what, I'm a computer scientist... so don't give your "retarded" replies since I wasn't aiming at you... I was talking about those who support him for the wrong reason. Supporting XDAs developers to give us root is different than supporting them to give us warez and piracy

Just because I don't agree with you, you don't have to insult.. please be more mature :)
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
Are you a troll? I hope so.

Sony already announced like two months ago that the PlayStation framework will come out for a multitude of devices, from many manufacturers. The Xperia Play is just the first phone. They said it requires Android 2.3, which aside from the Nexii and SE's new line up, not many phones support.

Also, while it's nice that GeoHot is hacking the Xperia Play, he does sort of have his priorities in the wrong place. If he wants to get back at Sony, why doesn't he actually go after one of Sony's devices, and not something not made (or really has much to do with) Sony.
[XPERIA X10 General] lightyear420:
lmao....you must have missed the fact that the Xperia is made by SONY Ericsson lol It is a merged company. Sony bought the Ericsson name years ago. Sony makes the hardware, and Ericsson writes the firmware, if I'm not mistaken. So in reality, he is going after Sony. It is their hardware that he plans to jailbreak.

BTW, bleached45's comment was far from troll-like. Your response makes absolutely no sense, whatsoever lol
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
Sigh. Sony did not buy Ericsson. Sony Ericsson is a joint operation, but everything is done in Europe, away from Sony in Japan.

Also, what doesn't make sense? http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/27/sony-announces-playstation-suite/

In case you're too lazy to click:

Relevant parts bolded. Exactly what I wrote in my earlier post.
[XPERIA X10 General] totalundone:
Sorry to nitpick...

Sony-Ericsson is a 50/50 ownership by Ericsson (a separate company) and Sony.

I'm not 100% sure how their partnership works but I don't think it's works exactly like that.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bin4ry:
We will see if he can make what we have not made till now.

If you believe that he just buys a phone and it's hacked than you missed the big dev. thread, the ideas and the problems.

Just read the few post from "the_laser" and you will see the main problem.

It's not easy like on the iphone ;)

But if he can make it -> i wil be happy too ^^

Regarding to piracy:

Developers are humas too, they have to work for their money and if everybody would just steal the games there won't be any games!

BUT:

I just buy games that i like, and i'm not willing to pay for everything. The last game i bought was "Black Mirror 3" for PC.

All this online games on dedicated servers etc. i would never give 1 cent for this games. Think about what would be in a few years. The servers are offline and your game is just crap lying around -> In this case i can fully understand that people just want to download the games without paying for them.

But this is just my opinion.

[XPERIA X10 General] lightyear420:
Like I said....if I am not mistaken lol. I never said that I was correct, because I was trying to remember exactly what the deal was between the two companies ;)

As for your comment confusing me, it is because you called him a troll, and his comment is nowhere near troll-like in any way. I think you may be unclear on exactly what a troll is if you think he was trolling :p

I had not heard the news about the PS store being announced any more than I had mentioned in the OP, so I did not know they were working on making games available to all android 2.3 enabled devices. That is great news for everyone!! I hope we truly see that come true, because I would love to see an official ps emu show up...imagine what the homebrew devs could do with that if they get their hands on the source (which shouldn't be too hard, given android's open-source policy :))
[XPERIA X10 General] MJ_QaT:
Then you should do a research before talking about something that you do not fully understand. You're misinforming many people here like that :cool:
[XPERIA X10 General] apawsey:
Love to see this, but I'm sure he's got other priorities.
[XPERIA X10 General] xnewser:
Hi, It seems like a lot of people here are loosing the point. Take this as example, if you are a criminal and uses knifes to kill people then we must eliminate all knifes present on earth !

I want my phone fully unlocked because I want to have a dual boot instead and many of you are talking about thanks to pirates I couldn't get access to the boot loader... sorry to said but it makes no sense to me since like happens with PCs the fact of keeping them completely unlocked do not mean we are all criminals. I'm not interested in games, I'm not interested in PSP but I'm here claiming for the right solution.

May be criminals are those big companies doing all things they wants based on the power of money...
[XPERIA X10 General] Lord Takyon:
The only thing I will say, other than this thread is quite funny, is that as far as I am concerned when I buy something it is mine to use as and how I decide.

Would you buy a Dell laptop and then allow them to dictate what OS etc you use?
[XPERIA X10 General] xateeq:
Chill out guys. Focus on the topic.

I have a sugestion for ppl who dont want bootloader cracked. Make a thread and discuss ur issues. This thread is for bootloader cracking support.
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
And here, everyone, is the reason why these locked bootloaders and firmware exist in the first place. Because of statements and people like this.
[XPERIA X10 General] javagreen:
Unless you're delusional you would know that's untrue.

They do not care whether you buy your games or you pirate your games, corporations like Sony Ericsson are NOT going to change their stance on this.

It's much more than meets the eye. Buying 10 different games and supporting 10 different developers isn't going to influence SE's decision in any manner whatsoever.
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
You've completely misunderstood.

The reason why things are locked down ANYWHERE, the reason for DRM is because people feel entitled to things that they didn't pay for. Sony wouldn't be suing Geohot at all if people didn't feel entitled to pirate games instead of pay for them.

And, because everyone wants to pirate instead of pay, Sony Ericsson will lock down their devices to prevent this. Why do you think the X10 bootloader is so strongly locked down? It was obviously a test to see if people could crack it before the Xperia Play was released.
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
Haha do you honestly believe this garbage you're spewing or are you just saying it?

The reason it is so locked down is so you are forced to buy new phones after less than a year like many are right now, in the hopes you will buy sony again...

I can't believe the stuff people will listen to, does nobody thing critically anymore or do they all simply take everything at face value? Be smart consumers people, not morons..

[XPERIA X10 General] lightyear420:
You are delirious, man. You've really got a lot to learn!!

And don't forget for warranty purposes. They don't want noob retards flashing prototype kernels to the phone and 100% bricking it because they have no clue what they are doing. There would be no way of knowing exactly how the thing bricked. Nintendo is facing this problem right now and they don't even have the Wii bootloader unlocked, it's just a VERY sensitive OS. People brick Wii's doing the most retarded crap you've every seen in your life, then send it in to Nintendo and say the new update bricked it. Because the new update did brick some consoles and there's no way to tell how it was bricked, so they now have no choice but to honor it.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bin4ry:
I think you misunderstood my sentece.

I said that i BUY games that i like. But i don't buy EVERYTHING -> i don't care about crap -> so i even NOT download it !

So what i want to say is that they have to make more GOOD software and NOT develop bad software which gets more protected that the crown jewels!

BUT: I can understand people which download games or other software which are full of DRM, online protections for activating etc. Because if you won't pirate it, you will pay money for something that is not running anymore in a few years because servers are offline, key is expired etc. etc. etc.

Hope i had clarifyed my statement now!

What a pompous cocky asshole that geohotz is
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
According to Rikard at SE, the bootloader has to be locked down because the X10 is more than just an operating system. It is a multifaceted phone. They have to honor agreements with their partners for secure SIM-lock and DRM functionality. It has nothing to do with piracy.

i thought he came more across as really, really interested in what he's doing with a good dose of nervousness. I see it (and probably do it sometimes too, lol) in my research setting. Cocky? Maybe, but I thought it was just that he was direct with his answers.
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
I'm not talking about this interview alone, just his personality in general. Someone told me he was a media whore, and I didn't believe him, so I looked up some stuff. Even the interviewer asked him if he was doing this to become popular, to which he replied, well, its not totally selfless...

Sure, I don't think Sony should have sued him, but I think he was asking for it
[XPERIA X10 General] amerhere:
hahahaha did he just said taht he buyed an x10 ???

woww x10 is really famous :D :D :D :D

doesnt matter wats da reason but ppl just want to own it atleast once :D :D :D

It only shows how little you know :)
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
How little I know? I have a degree in philosophy and political science, plus a P eng in electrical...

I'm no moron, just because you think you know the answers to everything and accept everything you're told.. If anything I feel sorry for your low iq. Anyhow stop following me around the board harassing me..
[XPERIA X10 General] MJ_QaT:
LoL, I guess you had it all, took every degree possible just to feel good about yourself and prove to others that you are no moron.... You keep mentioning your degrees many times now I wonder why, insecurity maybe, or maybe other issues with your personality...

straight answer from SE, better than listening to your nonsense talk about your assumptions

PS: if you were too smart, then how come you're still here complaining instead of going to another device?

Edit: Don't take it too personal Philosopher/Dr/Mr. Engineer ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
I like my x10, and unlike many I don't need to purchase a new phone every 4-6 months... I just think the locking of the bootloader is bs.

Of course you take their generic PR response as gospel, you've proved my earlier point about needing to examine things critically and being a smart consumer. What do you think they're going to say "its because we want to limit the changes you can make to your phone in order to force upgrades"?

Nope, I'm doing quite well, I just think it's funny how you can front like I'm some kind of idiot simply because I disagree with you.

I didn't know two degrees was "every kind of degree possible".

You're the type of person who is definitely only this cocky on the internet..
[XPERIA X10 General] MJ_QaT:
Does this ring a bell?

just because iead1 doesn't agree with you, you claimed his statement is garbage. Not only that, you went on to all consumers who disagree with you and called them morons.

So they either agree with you and be smart, or disagree with you and be a moron?

you are pathetic you know :)
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
You're the one following me around in every thread harassing me...

I wish you were here, I'd show you pathetic...

Buying into the idea that if the bootloader is unlocked, people will necessarily pirate is ridiculous. Lots of other manufacturers don't have their bootloaders locked, and has the rate of piracy risen on those devices because of it?

Obviously you have an issue with reading, I never said anyone that doesn't agree with me is a moron. I said anyone that doesn't examine things critically, and people that aren't smart consumers (who think about what they're told, or what they're buying) are...

Anyhow next time you keep harassing me I will be making a complaint with the moderators...
