So....a minute ago I look at my phone and it's automatically downloading the file listed in the title from T-Mobile UK.
Anyone know anything about this? Side note, I'm in Canada with a rooted phone on Rogers.
Sent from my X10a using Tapatalk
what do you mean from T-Mobile UK? did you buy an X10i from them and are using it on Rogers network or are you using a debranded (to T-Mobile UK firmware) and rooted X10a bought from Rogers?
Any chance of posting this mystery file??
*also should probably posted in General not Android Dev
The phone is an x10a from Rogers that was debranded and rooted.
The place it was downloading the file from was uk.tmobile.com or some variation of that.
The file is around 75 megs so can't post it from the phone. Will definitely post it when I get home later.

unfortunately i think your phone has downloaded and update for another phone google t-mobile pulse
I think so as well. Question is, why? Lol
Sent from my X10a using Tapatalk
whoa...really bizzare. Thanks for the update nonetheless.
I was debating about debranding to UK T-Mo just in case that was a 2.1 update, you never know with all the Sony Style hype and AT&T launch today, I have a hard time understanding how SE could be so incompetent to launch the X10 in the US at this stage with 1.6 but looks like that's gonna happen in a couple hours.
So it finished? What is inside? is It android 2.1 update we are waiting for?
OMG!! I have turned into one of those!!!!
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
no its an update for a t-mobile branded phone called the pulse hence pulse android 2.1 update /thread
LOL yeah. it was mentioned in the thread.. I just thought to "stick my tounge out" for no reason..
I just find it funny. My phone is not branded, I'm not with t-mobile, nor do I have a Pulse. Not only did it grab the update, it did it automatically. That's not cool.

What is exactly the update for?
Good question. How would I find out?
Sent from my X10a using Tapatalk
Is there any different in baseband, or your FW ver?
did the update install?
what's your rom version?
It was a zip file. Nothing installed.
Phone info:
Model number: X10a
Firmware version: 1.6
Baseband version: 1.1.27
Kernel version: 2.6.29-rel [email protected] #2
Build number: R2BA023
Nothing installed so it's all normal/the same as it's been. It was just a zip file that I noticed downloading in my notification bar when I turned my screen on. It said it was downloading from the UK T-Mobile site. Other than that, I have no clue about the file itself. I'll look into posting the file tonight for anyone who wants to have a peek at it

Why on earth do you people keep on making threads with "android 2.1" titles? You'll get your answers/attention with titles that don't cause a heart attack for people like me who actually wait for some real news.

If you felt "Pulse Android21.zip" meant we had 2.1, there's not much I can do for you since nowhere in the title does it state "Android 2.1 on my x10!!!!!!!!!!!!".
Why on earth do "you people" keep thinking every discussion of 2.1 automatically means "WHEN DO WE GET IT?!!"
Perhaps reading may have assisted you in this case

All I did is debranded my phone to LAM Generic R2BA026.
I backed up these files before I debranded my phone to Generic.
Did AT&T brand this firmware like crazy?
By the look of the file size posted by the OP, this firmware looks very slimmed down.
The generic 026 NAM weighs in about 124MB in size. This AT&T firmware is only 116MB. I am assuming PlayNow is not there and maybe other stuff.
Anyone install it on their device yet?
il try it
give me some time il throw it on right now il take that back my update app wont let meflash my phone sucks

I only spent 15 min on the ATT software before I debranded it, here is what I noticed
1) phone comes with at least 7 ATT apps
2) ATT boot screen ..DUH!
3) no play now
4) timescape is the same, mediascape has ATT music at the bottom
5) phone only comes with stock Android keyboard
6) google search widget has microphone icon next to it
7) youtube login account finally worked!! didnt work any of the generic firmwares for some reason
8) new wallpapers

Question: Is Multi-Touch on ATT X10a Hardware disable? or Software Disable?
I am trying to figure out, which phone to get, comparing this phone with ATT Captivate.
well both phone have no front facing camera, no biggy for me.

It were said many times that X10 does not supports Multi-touch, so skip asking around about it.
It is seem the R2C firmware is just a customize for ATT, so sad
I'm quite curious to see anyone debrand it and upgrade it to 2.2...1.6 is soo old for a phone like that..
I asked the people at att and they say it was 2.1..turns out they lied.
Can you post apps and boot screen

You know they always will! Did they even know what you were talking about? I don't think so bro. A bunch of MORONS there. I plan on getting this phone too it looks sexier than captivate.
Did any one have any luck rooting their Xperia x10 on AT&T yet? If so, can you please tell us which of the rooting methods you used? I'm dying to get rid of all the bloated AT&T crap on the stock rom, and put my own on so that I can use the phone to its full potential.
Thanks in advance to anyone who has rooted their Xperia on AT&T and can tell us how they did it!
I used both methods. I used the 5 step (actually 7 for X10a) initially and then redid it with the 3 step for the 026 rom. On the three step I had to edit the third batch file to correct a syntax error.
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
And this was on the AT&T version of the x10a or a different version of it? If it's the AT&T version, can you tell me exactly how you did it so that I can root my phone as well?
Thanks!

Hey guys, I have a Rogers X10a that I've debranded to the Latin American R2BA026. Just wondering, do you think any of the other regions will get it before this one does? I read somewhere that SE Brazil said the 2.1 update over there would be sometime around the end of October... does this apply to the Generic firmware as well? or is that independent of all this
I looked around and couldn't find any similar thread so I'm posting this
Thanks in advance
I really doesnt matter who gets it first. As soon as its out, somone will upload it and then we will all be enjoying it. No point waiting for your carriers official release cause youll be waiting............ forever. Its coming. People are more excited about this release then my kid is about Xmass or summer vacation!

I'm sure I read somewhere that 1.6 does not support Bluetooth HID such as keyboards.
Unless I am mistaken, you should wait a few days until 2.1 is released and try then.

With Telstra, although i debranded from x10a to x10i, the general forums say im on the correct firmware, will try unlocking the phone and using my other sim cards. I didnt really care about android over9000 firmware update until now, want my Hd recording, 16m colors and bluetooth 2.1 HID DAMMNIT.
There is an app for it. There is an app that allows you to connect a BT keyboard to the x10/android 1.6 phone.
I've tried it my self, and it worked. But I normally use it with my computer instead.
I can't quite remember the name. But it was a bit trublesome to use it imo.
But it does work!
All I remember is that I searched for BT HID or something in the Market.
If you want to be able to use enter/space etc.. youl'l need to pay for the app.

My expectations of getting 2.1 are by Q3 2011, we have already been delayed 6months and im still on 014 so by the time its ready for my carrier it wont be til atleast december. i read somewhere that 2.1 would be coming out sometime this week OTA for areas with the majority of SE users.

If your phone is a X10a is better come back to it's native firmware...

Sent from my R800i using Tapatalk
Whoops, looks like I missed this topic and replied to another one instead. I'll repost here because it's more appropriate to this thread.
This release is the second release of the 2.3.4 firmware, right? I ask because I installed the Generic UK 2.3.3 firmware to my Google I/O R800a months ago and received the second 2.3.3 OTA update bringing it up to 4.0.A.2.368 about a month before the version for the North American R800a dropped. By all indications at the time, the UK firmware was getting updates out way faster.
But now this has been released and I still haven't seen anything come up for OTA or through PC Companion or SEUS. It makes me wonder if I should just flash back to the Generic North American R800a ROM with this.
Any suggestions/recommendations? Thanks!
Weird. When I plug my phone into my computer PC Companion tells me there is an update for my phone (the version that this thread is about). If I search for software update in the phone it says I am up to date. I'm on 2.3.4 now (4.0.1.A.0.283) which I believe is the UK generic version.
The .283 is the Nordic 2.3.4

So I've been loving this FW to death... except for one aspect.
BLOATWARE IS OFF THE ****ING CHARTS!
As if all the other expected stuff wasn't enough, now they're forcing Google Books, Video Unlimited, like 3 different "Get Games" things, LiveWare, a bunch of Facebook integrated stuff, OfficeSuite and PlayNow... and versions of Flash/Facebook/Youtube that can't be removed or moved to SD... holy ****.
Madden, Star Batallion, FIFA and Bruce Lee are also being forced... but I don't mind that much. I like all those games (still wouldn't mind having the option to move that stuff to SD).
The most annoying part is that if I uncheck Automatic Updates, it'll just re-check themselves and slam all those updates on my phone storage when I'm sleeping or something. That's pretty high up there on the "**** move"-o-meter.
Even still though... this ROM has been amazing... like 250MB free natively... 720p recording, xLoud... screen caps... but if someone could modify this ROM and kill off all that crap, I'd be in heaven.

lol I found out about the zergRush method roughly two minutes after I posted that bloatware rant.
Happily rooted, and about to tweak some things to perfection. I don't necessarily want to kill off all the bloatware... I just want it off my goddamn phone storage
IIRC, I can just go straight into the system/app folder and every apk I delete from there uninstalls the app, right? I've been on stock 2.3.3 so long I've forgotten.
Do you need an unlocked bootloader for this, or can you use it if the bootloader is still locked?
