Are here people with android 2.1 on the phone??
with KPN brand, I can't nothing find on the update in the Wifi phone??
A few people have 2.1 but only because they either work for SE or are Developers. Only a few weeks left till everyone will get the update.
Please, do not feed either him or topic. We all know why.
We should be getting the 2.1 soon. Q4 is pretty much here.

I've had contact with SE and they tolled me that the update to Android 2.1 for X10 mini and mini Pro will come in Q4 of this year....
Well, at least for The Netherlands....I don't know anything about the updates for other countries...
Wasn't there something about at the end of september? Late Q3?

Okay! So now we Xperians have Android 2.1(Eclair) on our devices. Now, We need to discuss about the next version of Android, i.e. 2.2(Froyo) because still we aren't able to get most out of our phones.
Also, from various sources, we have come to know that Sony Ericsson is not interested in releasing the Froyo update for our X8 now, for the time being, say 4 months.
This means that our devs need to do the hard work and port Froyo onto it!
This thread is for you devs. Cheers!
There will come new update in january i thing.
I thing it will 2.3 and if you see your firmware info there is writing 2.1-update1.
So there will be new update soon.

Ha. What devs?
4 monthes seems a little quick actually. You'd think it'll be much easier and quicker just to wait for the latest update than trying to port it ourselves.
it's mean x8 will update to froyo..?? this is true news..??
No official word from sony, so I'd say no.
Last I read was some "leak" from a Turkish SE employee. He claimed the x10 (no mention of the x8) would get an update to 2.2 in Q2 2011.
Found it: http://www.xperiax10.net/2010/12/03...al-froyo-xperia-x10-update-coming-in-q2-2011/
Considering the x8 has a lower update priority than the x10; doubt there's any point hoping for an update before next generation "mid-range" android phones come out, sporting 1ghz chips, 256mb++ storage and Gingerbread.

Yes, there will be updates, but they will fix the bugs in the Eclair only.
No word from Sony that there will be Froyo on it, and some devs think that Xperia X8 wont handle the Froyo as good as any other phone does.....(i read it in some blog, if this information is wrong, then there should be no blame on me!)

No word from Sony yet. But we don't see any updates(Froyo) on it for a quarter or so....
In France, SFR just published 2.1 for X10 mini on 1th december, so i don't expect to have 2.1 on X8 before january / february.
It will let the time to xda dev teams to find a way to make it root
We dont need 2.2 we need option to install apps on sd card.
They can change 2.1 to do that.
Just provide us with an easy to root build and we will do the needful

That's what I am saying SE should have provided us an easy to root rom

Again, why should they make it easy to root? It gives hackers a way into people's phones, by getting into root they could do anything they wanted without the users permission.
Having the 'super user' app isn't going to stop hackers from using the same exploit to gain root.

I agree even though we all do it we do so at out own risk it can cause problems. For those hoping for a 2.2 update SE confirmed a while back theyre would be no 2.2 update for the x8.

Where did they say that? I've never seen such an announcement.
so updates on the Android 2.2 is supported only for x10. It should also for x8 and x10 Mini / pro. sorry my english is poor

I confirm.
I read it on an official SE thread somewhere but I don't find the link. And I read it on many "tech" blogs relaying the information.
They won't make a 2.2 for X10 / X8.
In case you hadn't read...
SE are going to update X10 to 2.3 this year but not mini/pro/X8
Feeling a little kicked in the teeth
Read all about it...

I dont think so, as the reason SE are not giving the update is that they need to "prioritise" on other SE products.
Thanks a lot SE....u suck!

Man i feel the same way too! Its just damn unfair. No more SE for me.
Anyway who cares about SE......devs at xda are doing a better job than them...and xda devs have already ported x10 arc firmware to x10...so basically who needs to crave for se support when owain the dude is at work.

Dude, if SE give the 2.3 update, devs might sit back and rest....as the only reason they were trying to crack the bootloader and all was to get the 2.3 modules/ kernels working on x10....now they are getting it, they dont need to do so.....though the update is coming in Q3, i hope we get to see our bootloader cracked before that...
Thanks to all the devs.
Even if se releases official update,devs would definitely continue to improve it.....and SE will definitely add a patch in 2.3 update so as to void the progress made my devs..but x10 devs do deserve a vacation in hawaii ;-)

You bet they do.
Hmm, I'm 99% sure, that dev's in our community will not abandon us. Well, from videos you can the laggy interface what Arc has...Running Froyo 2.2 on my mini, seems to be much better and fluid than GB on Arc.(Arc has also better hardware than mini does)
It might even benefit us as it might be easier to port X10 ROM to X10 mini/pro. Am I wrong?
I would think so too. Well - these phones did come in a rather turbolent time of the mobilephone market, so the fact that they drop the support isn't all that surpricing. They need to look forward like most other companies in these times - those who fall, is left behind

Dude it isn't easy at all..........the x10 has completely different modules......that is why it will be pretty difficult but not impossible though........hope to see gingerbread (with 2.3 kernels and modules) on x10 mini......

Se f**** you, i will buy HTC devices or samsung or everything that hasn't the sony trademark
will gingerbread or a gingerbread beta for the x10 be leaked early to the xda community, like how we got the arc firmware early? also about when do you think sony will release it?
In q2-q3 we get the official update and leak will maybe come in early q2

yes it is!
by then we would have a fully working 2.3 from J (with custom kernel i hope)
Don't count on it so early. I think the update may arrive near the end of the timeline or even get a bit delayed since they can't release something with bugs...
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Judging from what SE has done in the past we wouldn't see the update until we reach their given timeline which is end of Q2 or early Q3.
Not sure if this has been said, the Sony PC companion software has just updated today on my laptop.
Does anyone think the new 2.3 gingerbread rom is imminent ?
I am a UK Sony x10 user.
Thoughts on this anyone ?
Not anytime within the next two months im sure.
I do not think that
They stated Q2/Q3 which is June/July for Sony-Ericsson. However, I wouldn't be surprised if it was delayed by a month.
I'd expect it around July/August. If it comes out before, at least I could feign happy surprise
User unknown13x who has some connections to SE and has been right about a lot of stuff, said in a thread I can't seem to be able to find right now, that the update is scheduled for release in the last week of june or so.

we already have several custom gingerbread roms here...

Proudly sent from my French Minitel
Updated twice today?? Anybody knows what kind of updati is this? PC Companion updates it self or new phone software update?
more likely that it's being updated now to support the f/w update due out for the Arc at the end of this month!

They'll release it when they're good and ready. Do recall, folks, this is Sony Ericsson we're talking about. They release things on THEIR schedule, nor ours.
To prove this point, look to 2010, when they said that Éclair was to be released in mid Q2, then early Q3, then mid Q3, then end Q3, then finally pushing it back into November, and even December for some people.
Shtuff happens, and we'll get it when we get it. I for one am content as is right now with my TripNMiUI Gingerbread build. And there are many, MANY more over in the Development forum for you to take a peek at in the meantime.

"Sony Xperia X10: Sony disappointed countless customers when it said its Xperia X10 line of phones wouldn't be upgraded past Android 2.1 earlier this year. Now, however, Sony has reconsidered its stance and said it will upgrade the Xperia X10 to Android 2.3. According to a company blog posted in late March, Android 2.3 -- 2.3.3, to be specific -- will hit Xperia X10 phones late in the second quarter or early in the third quarter of 2011. Before you get too excited, though, note that Sony says the upgrade will be delivered to "generic trade versions" of the phone -- and that carrier-customized versions may or may not be included. "We will have to get back with more information on this at a later stage," Sony says, "but we want to be very clear already at this stage on the fact that some of you may not get this upgrade." Sony also notes that Xperia X10 phones will not be upgraded again beyond the Gingerbread level."

well what does that matter? I have AT&T, i plan on putting 2.3 on here the same way i put on 2.1. flashtool. some dev will post the global 2.3 rom and we'll download it... compile it with flashtool then flash it. no biggie. i dont like pc companion anyway.
I think they should start banning everyone who posts things related to "when" or "if" the x10 will be updated to 2.3 this is really annoying.
Banning is too extreme. a warning will do just fine

Geohot has bought an X10 to crack, Now that we have him on the case it won't be too long until the bootloader is cracked yay
