Thanks a lot for the tutorial, I have been looking a long time for it.
I have a question: Is "E10i CUSTOMIZED_UK 1237-0392 10A136" a firmware from UK and Customized by the operator? I mean, I want a firmware original from Sony Ericsson debranded device. You could get more firmwares?
I also live in Spain so I don't know if that firmware turn my phone into english language.
Please answer!
Thanks again
It's Generic UK and should contain Spanish .
And how could I revert to my original firmware?
Keep a backup of the files you overwrite.
You disallow the uploading of files you pulled from a SE server or phone?
Unlike HTC you have no power to stop anyone. I'm sure the xda admins won't look kindly upon such comments by its own posters.
actually delete cba.

Let me explain myself. The files are from extranet servers, correct but the files were repacked to be used by users. I let people debrand for free on multiple ocassions, and all I want is for users to respect the rules listed in my threads. If the download link doesn't work for somebody then I will try to mirror is myself in 48hrs. I also like to keep download statistics for myself which then can be used to look for popularity in files. If you have further questions in regards to this thread then please contact me through PM as the posts here are going offtopic.

Erm, isn't this tutorial exactly the same as that for the Xperia X10 apart from the X10 mini files? Not sure why you are somehow trying to claim a 'right' to it. This is the Internet after all.
Also, if I remember correctly, the instructions to debrand the Xperia X10 were first posted up by C987. You've got some nerve claiming that you somehow own this information.
Probably he want the "rights" to earn money by donations via PayPal, but that doesn't worry me...
Anyway, thanks Lollylost100 for the tutorial. It really works!
PD: If you give me permission, I could post this tutorial into Spanish forums (Always recognizing the work of the creator).
Thanks again

First debranded X10 by SEUS was done by me (private). I didn't release the method until another person manages to do it in public. When Andy managed it, I released my tutorial.
Again, anything you want to discuss with me then write a PM and you will sure get a reply back.
I'm well aware of your claims of doing it privately, but why not just release it then? Also, my original post was to point out that you are not giving out proprietary information so you shouldn't stick caveats like that in your tutorial.
This method to debrand Sony Ericsson products has remained essentially the same for years, it's not as if these are new instructions. By all means restrict the use of the files that you have uploaded (after all nobody else has access to these), but don't claim any copyright on the method.

Hello,
My operator "Orange France" have send me an Xperia X10 with Android 2.1, strange, but it's real.
Someone can explain me how to dump this rom (and extract my personnal data, for a clean ROM) ?
If i can dump i will share this rom (unreleased, very strange too) for the community.
Thanks in advance.
PS: Sorry for my bad english.
I am very surprised as you to have this ROM on my X10, but this is real.

Chill people. Lier or not a lier, he has asked a question in Android Development and give him the answer and call it a day. I don't know what is it with you people to get angry over every little thing. Some people fall for this and some don't we are Maximum 30 days away from the 2.1 updates anyways. Not worth to kill yourself over such a little subject.
Thanks for confirmation.

If I were him (and I'll give the benefit of doubt here about having 2.1, it's not *too* outlandish at this point) I so would just go "**** uploading this crap" after all the damn flaming from assholes in this thread and not do anything about it anymore. May people flame even more after that, but dammit, flamers don't deserve *any* benevolence from the one they flamed.

So typical of forums. Never give anyone a chance to prove what they are saying is true. Flame them out of here, with all the proof now or you are a liar bullcrap.
If he has gone, it will just be some other forum that benefits if he does actually have 2.1 to upload.
... no we don't. Our corporate contracts are with Vodafone right through the group or their affiliations where they can't provide.
Needless to say, I don't work that high up to have experienced it and if you have international working links you must be at LEAST GCB6 of which people at that level don't post idiotic claims like this.
So, using the same note, let's wait and see what this guy has to say

Don´t believe it.
The latest version in EMMA has still some "not translated" parts (they are in english) and has a few tools installed which are not for public.
I do not believe
is very unlikely
unfortunately a screen shot did not test anything

Hi Tomboss, well that's very common on this forum. 90% of the posts are bullsh**t, whining, yelling and so on.
I'm also very unpleasant with that situation.
Afaik, there is actually no way to get a dump directly from the phone to the PC.
I guess the only way is to perform a repair flashing through SEUS / PC Companion.
Unfortunately, the whole Phone will return to its delivery status.
But you'll have all files dumped from the SE Servers to your Harddisk, as they are downloaded from SEUS again.
Before, you can Backup about 100% of the Phone by using "Titanium Backup".
Just to make sure, you're not running into a wall.
Are you 100% sure, you didn't confuse Android 2.1 and S///Es Version Numbers like "R2Bxxx".
Hi Tomboss,
Did you look on the phone at the firmware version?
Also i think you may need to root it to use titanium backup. There is a quick root on here somewere that is quick and easy to use, called x10root.
Hello all,
i am totally new in the world of roots and roms.
i managed to root and enable sideloading on my atrix! yay!
1) but what can i do now?
i am thinking about installing GreyBlur

2) can someone (who is lil patient) explain me what i would get? will my phone be faster? can i damage it since iam still new in this area?
3) anyone knows a good article/post/thread/anything where i can start getting into this root/roms area? so i can learn about it?
thanks for all your help, you are awesome.

I have a question to you! Why did you root if you didn't know what you wanted to do afterwards? Rooting is not just so you can feel the "cool factor", and the vast majority of us know before we root why we want to do it, otherwise...................WHY do it???
Why did you bother? Your own answer should close this thread, and everything else you mentioned can be found by reading the forums!
No offense, but you shouldn't be rooting/flashing "roms" if you don't know what your doing.
It's very easy to end up with an unusable device.

Can anyone tell means about that rom pls.
I find your responses a bit harsh guys.. Are there laws / regulations on who can / should root, profile boxes that have to be ticked before one can decide to have a go at unleashing the full power of their phone?
Nobody was born with the knowledge, we all started from scratch at some stage. There are enough warnings that explain how to apply the root methods that are offered in the threads.

Yea, he may be a noob and not know the politics of posting before reading, but I bet each one of us did at one time too. What we should be doing is just politely pointing him in the right direction on how to learn more about all things root.
Such as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=972423 being a good place to start.
Understand though, if you screw up your phone, there is no one to blame but yourself. Read how to recover from a soft brick and hard brick before jumping in. Read all posts VERY carefully and all the way through. That's how I learned, and many others before me. And first and foremost, before asking questions about anything, do a quick search of the treads to see if it has already been asked and answered before. If you don't find your question, feel free to ask and ignore those that troll the treads.
Good luck my man.

I am running Gingerblur which is very similar. I think it is a great ROM and one of the few so far for the Atrix. If you like some of the Blur stuff such as the gallery and social networking items, you have to understand that you will be losing them with the new ROM and going with the stock Android gallery. However, if you do a backup of your current ROM before flashing, you can always revert back if you don't like it.
Big thing, screen shots help for me. And the ROM developers do a great job at giving the details of their ROMs in their posts or websites.

I agree, we all have to learn, but the vast majority of us started by reading through threads which have all the info about how to flash sbf's, root, sideload, flash themes, what is and is not possible, etc. We then tried things by following the instructions.
I'm not, and was not, trying to be a ****. I am however very blunt! Everything the OP needs is already there if he/she looks. The forums are full of "repeat" threads because people are basically too lazy to read and research for themselves before asking what has already been asked numerous times.

DigitalMD’s response was the correct one. There was nothing unfortunate or condescending about it.

As far as developers incorporating apks in their roms, all of them secure permissions before using someone else’s work

If you expect people to break rules and pirate stuff because you are too lazy, then Yeah off you go.
Impressive ...
I posted a response to the accusations to piracy and laziness, and a suggestion that maybe the reason why many users are here is to run unsupported stuff on their phone. I also stated that to suggest that all those HTC/Sony/Sammy variant ROMs are done with the full permission of the manufactures is also patently false.
My post got deleted and I have 6 months of infraction points ...
XDA really has gone down the toilet.
Anyway, the important piece of information that I posted is that DroidDia runs fine on at least two unsupported devices (Galaxy Tab and Galaxy Note) ... I extracted the APK from a Nexus One and installed directly.
Feel free to abuse me again for as long as this post remains ...
As apparently it is OK
Not that I expect this post to last much longer than the last one
Hmm.. interesting debate you guys are having in here. Here is how this is supposed to work:
MaxJavi, believe it or not, is not in fact asking for warez at all since the app is free (just restricted in its distribution due to Market's policies). Reposting the apk needs to be done with the developer's permissions but as it is not a paid app nor does it use any kind of licensing model such as Swype, it should be ok to post under our rules (of course, unless the IP owner complaints, in which case it has to be taken down).
On the other side of the coin, the answer provided to him was neither wrong, unfortunate, or condescending. It was in fact 100% correct. @MaxJavi, you were provided with the correct answer and your response to a helpful post (not too many of these around these days) was far more condescending, inflammatory, and filled with disdain than what you claim the other response was. A simple "thanks for the response" even if it would have meant for you to have to go to Google for 15 seconds to find the apk or ask the dev if you could have it would have been the correct venue. The infraction that you received was for the attitude you had towards someone simply taking the time to reply to you in a courteous manner, who even went as far as searching for the company in Google and posting a link for you to contact them.
I hope the OP doesn't mind, but I am closing this thread now as answers have been provided.

Hi
I think problem is not tutorials, but people who used first random tut.
Im sorry you bricked your device, but root G2 is really easy and install twrp.
For root u can use DP Tools from android g2 section, and twrp u can get with autorec from playstore.
That's all, if u wanna use customized roms, u will need install Jelly Bean bootloader, it support kitkat/lollipop/aosp roms. LG G2 is unbrickable by software, every state can be repaired. So, search tutorial for you to unbrick device and use my steps to have full unlocked device and feel free to mods and roms
I just unbricked my G2 after 6 weeks so ask if you need anything to help you.

So, search tutorial for you to unbrick device and use my steps to have full unlocked device and feel free to mods and roms

Nope. G2 community is so bad. No one give solutions, only ask for money , even steel credit card date. I love the phone, but the community is just terrible.
It is quite often that I found solution tread, first tree pages of comments are "nice work" , "good job" and so on , after fifth page real users actually give negative feedback. Now I am reading tread with 77 pages. I am in the middle and I still do not understand is it safe to use tutorial. And there are a lot of treads like this. XDA should give some rating possibility, to delete treads with wrong or not working properly solutions.
I am very disappointed in XDA.

So what doesn't work? Most of the things just do work normally but you need ofcourse to have the right bootloader version/modem just like on other devices. English isn't the main language for everybody so their English isn't perfect and so is mine but your's isn't 100% correct either. But they do contribute to the community and that breaks the barrier of languages.

MixXx2005 I don't know which threads you are in but I never had anybody ask me for money or steal credit card date? There might be people asking for money or idk exactly what all but that might be going on in the background especially. As some people brick their phone others want to unbrick it and ask money for shipping/not trying to destroy it. If you want to do it free then you have to do it yourself probably. The G2 community does give solutions but there were already so many Q&A threads or people who all ask the same question/don't read properly the threads that some people just don't react anymore.
I had read many unbricking/root tutorials when I just came to this community several months ago already and everything worked fine. Also the hardbrick fix method worked fine for me.
Btw if somebody steals your credit card date then why did you gave them it all? If you have those kinds of problems or want to report something about outdated content then just react on the thread, Contact the OP, and or in cases of scams and those stuff contact a moderator. Moderator and members don't always have time to check or everything is alright so people need to report the problems.
So about "I AM ANGRY DUE TO BAD TUTORIAL I BRICKED MY PHONE REAL BAD. "
You really have to read carefully for which G2 variant is was meant, it doesn't matter if you are experienced or not experienced people also make mistakes just like that I hardbricked my G2 after I left myself on an unrooted rom with no download mode and recovery.
If you can say the problem you have like what kind of bricks, more details then I could might help you for free. The thing it might only costs is time but that's worth it if you fix your brick into an working G2.
I will try to reply asap but school and some other stuff in life might make me forget this so if you have a question please quote or mention my name as I would only then receive a notification about it.
EDIT: I read your thread now about your qh_usb brick and I read the tutorial. The tutorial isn't misleading or whatsoever there could have been an issue due to drivers/binaries and or communication between your device and fastboot itself. The tutorial was also meant for if you had the same message on your screen.
Btw in which mode are you? QHUSB_BULK 9006 or 9008? About the exclamation marks do you have the proper drivers for it? You might need to install the drivers manually with device manager. If you can mention which mode then I could perhaps help. Maybe not immediately but I could probably help you to unbrick your phone .

Thanks for your replay.
After all day of reading tons of useless information finally unbrick my phone. Now it is fully functional again.
I will explain why I am mad.
1st after official update my phone start to act weird (now i know what caused it, and it do not matter), then after I try to flash stock FW I stuck at LG logo. I found two different tutorials and both of them showed contradictory steps, I decided to follow one of them and like I said get error and booting till LG logo.
Next due to bad tutorial I erase all partitions with fastboot. But in the tut. was not said anything about proper way to do it. So after that tut. I get real brick. Still everyone can brick their phone following it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/mega-tut-how-to-fix-bricked-lg-g2-t3055033 (3. step - how can I know that I should modify provided code with my .img file path? Where is something said about it?)
Then I read FAMOUS "LG G2 is UNBRICKABLE NOW! [FIX REAL HARD BRICK]" . After that I tried to short out test pins. Again I found contradictory informations about test point locations.
To get any life in my dead phone ,I try them both, and luckily I did not damaged eMMC.
There are a lot of wrong information how you should act in different situations in these topics, and these things can permanently destroy your hardware and there are no highlights or any warning about it.
So after qh_usb brick win 7 was unable to detect drivers, but somehow randomly after several hours of search, I found correct Qualqomm drivers, after that the device manager showed connection with 9008 mode brick. Then after I read whole
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/fix-unbrick-lg-g2-stuck-qualcomm-hs-usb-t2933830/page42
5th page before end ,give me right tool to fix my phone. tons of contradictory info there - truly TONS.
I can give you treads , where people do not give right topics, but instead give their FB and later ask for money.
Also I can give you proofs about those who said that they will help you for free in TeamViewer and quietly install keyloggers.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/fix-unbrick-lg-g2-stuck-qualcomm-hs-usb-t2933830/ (read this tread , somewhere in middle of it, there are a lot of proofs)
It took me around 15 h with intense bulls*it filtering to get my phone in order.
And the most annoying thing , is that this all, what I describe previously , could be done in 15 min, if there would be ONE normal tread.
If all other/bad/misleading treads would be deleted, then my troubles would not been started in 1st place.
But like I said before this G2 community is terrible from beginners point of view.
Ok here is one thing
1. before doing anything search ( I agree that you will find a lot of outdated threads -- not useless but mostly outdated)
2. There is a help section with people who will understand where the error is and try to help you out
3. Most of the people here ask a question, solve the issue and just write: "fixed", without writing how and possibly contributing
Honestly, If I were a mod I would just delete their useless threads, always thinking of themselves
There isn't any magic tool that will fit everyones needs, people who are new just click random
I hope you fixed the device

Thanks, everything is good now. But I disagree - there are a lot of wrong and often contradicting treads and a lot of people that make their salary due to this.
I think admins should ban a lot of users here and also implement some kind of tread and user ranking. Because there are also people that do not know anything( I my point of view, they are just helpful fools ,that do not understand what they can cause with their misleading information) ,but they tried to help by just posting random s*it they were hear somewhere else. And I as desperate beginner can make much worse brick by following the advice.

Post #63 and below it.

I don't believe this happened. There would be more people involved in such opinions then.
Tbh the thread name of yours is kind of embarasing for people who create free stuff for everyone.
If you have any issues with any user on xda there are mods and admins and you can report them.

Odd.
Because I always found a solution for every problem I had, got an answer for every question. Even the most ridiculous ones.
So I disagree that the community is bad, quite the contrary. Every bit of info is here. You just have to read and understand what you've read.
And people here are nothing but helpful (most of them, at least).
P.S. as long as your G2 boots up, it is not bricked and it can be salvaged.
