Dear beloved xda x10 members,
I recently bought an itech wireless bluetooth keyboard but have not had any success in pairing with it. Has anyone had experience with it working that would like to help out?
This is the thing.

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.

I'm also in Australia. If you're with Optus, update using SEUS. They have 026 as I do..
Except I'm using the UK version which is starting to **** me.

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...
The X10i uses another frequency in 3G.

i remain used r2ba024, because there are many bugs on 26...doesn't it happen on yours??
Am I more likely to get 2.1 sooner if I put on the uk generic ?

just a quick sidenote for the ones who are intrigued by lazerz:
never ever consider buying this keyboard.
this is the most useless piece of chinese low-tech i ever owned.
unpacked it, installed it, and sold it 2 days later on ebay.
Agreed.

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!

The X10 is getting updated to 2.1? That's news to me. \end sarcasm
Yeah whoever gets it first which I think is the UK (thought I read that somewhere) will upload it for us.

Since I'm new to this,
will the UK generic firmware work on the X10a?
Righttt... Now guys the 2.1 update is little more than a week away. But the developers are at work looking at the prototype bootloader (for the mini anyway).
So question is do I update? Or dont i? Because I dont want to update to find out the bootloader gets cracked and I cant use my phones full potential. Will the official update inhibit me from getting a cracked bootloader?
And i'd like to know what all the rest of you on the forum are going to do, wait or update?

I would wait, at least ultil someone have root, and also have confirmed that you can flash back to 1.6 if wanted...
SE may be able to patch the firmware before they release the update, and then there will perhaps be no way back for the once who didn´t wait and updated their phones, and thats why i would wait...
I would actually also like the XDA DEVS to hide any progress (call it "go undercover" or "away from the XDA forums"), as i know for shure that all the phone manufactores are reading here at XDA and "other places" on the web too...
If SE see that XDA DEVS get too far, SE can easy decide to hold back the update some time longer to make the needed changes to lock down the new firmware even better...
I really hope that XDA DEVS beat SE in this race...
you have a point. i think i will just wait around and hope for a while then...
I don´t believe that there will be an update soon. If there were only 2-3 weeks until update, why X8 was released with 1.6 instead of holding it for 2 weeks and releasing it with 2.1? SE did release X8 with 1.6 which was a terrible marketing step because it had no other choice - i.e. update was too far away.
Also, you call off a product (and 2.1 update is a product) 3-4 days before it had to hit the market, swallowing the consequences, only if something went terribly wrong.
So hold your horses. And get used to 1.6
One of my contacts in SE tells me that a new version should appear in week 43 (25th - 31rd October). Let's just hope for an early arrival

If official information can´t be trusted, why should we trust unofficial. I will believe only when I´ll see my X10 mini pro running 2.1, and this is not going to happen soon.

This is a very good point..
test version (not final) for mini leaked
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=808359
So, they are releasing final candidates now. Which means a month ago or it was a big lie, or something really bad was discovered and they realised they have to do it from the scratch and need one more month. Neither way I don´t trust SE. If release candidates will be released soon, we are not looking at October, but at the end of November at best. Operators will not be willing to release an untested product onto the market, and SE will blame operators for delays. smart move Frik Skogberg.

In France, the marketing manager of SE, have said officialy on facebook, that the update will come for november and not before :-(

And I'm done. Take that Robbers
I was just wondering if there are any downsides to updating with the nordic method. theres no word yet from rogers about an update yet and I don't really want to wait.

Cool thanks, I might give it a try then
I am on Rogers as well, it's great but I noticed today that I can not do a file transfer over bluetooth like I could with 1.6...can do audio but that's it.
I would suggest maby go for the WORLD GENERIC it seems more stable than the NORDIC maby its just me but after trying the NORDIC when it first came out the WORLD GENERIC seems to be a bit better
note im not on ROGERS Im on VODA in the UK but if your going to do the update try it and see which is best
remember to backup first as much as you can (root your 1.6 and use Titanium backup to backup your apps and data)

No problems here at all! I now hear someone has successfully updated their X10 to 2.2 and it is running perfectly as well.

For once, I can actually be happy for my Canadian friends up north, for it seems that they always get the short end of the stick. I don't know how they Bear it... being left out in the Cold and all, plus some of 'em just so happen to have inherited the second worst think from the French, their language!
Seriously, I'm happy for y'all.
And this can only bode well for the U.S. as well, as it means that were mighty close...and they get to Beta test!!! On another high note, the Rogers ROM seemed to be much better than the ATT ROM was. So our off shoots might start off better.

Yeah, only Quebec speaks French. Yet our idiotic government forces it to be in our national anthem, all over our packaging, and most government phone lines you use. It is ridiculous. I cannot stand French as much as Al Bundy, and I assure you that almost all of our non Quebec population feels the same.
so nobody in canada got it? guess this was another ruse
