Rooted phone on Version 23 - XPERIA X10 Android Development

I have a rooted x10 that I rooted a couple of months ago using the long way to root and I was wondering how I can update to 26 or 28. I can't remember which guide I used, but I remember it being for the x10i (germany) and I hate to rename a file to x10a as I have a Rogers x10a.
I included an image of my phone.
Thanks in advance.

Not heard of 028, but to get 026 try running SEUS or PC Companion.

[Q] Generic X10a 2.1 update for NAM/LAM?

Hi All,
I recently flashed my at&t X10a to X10a R2BA026 0001 CUSTOMIZED GEL/LUSTER WHITE NAM_1. I assume this is the generic for North America. My question is, does anyone know when the 2.1 update for the firmware I specified will be released? Any information would be much appreciated.
Thank you all!
according to SE LAM it'll be ready for this week, they just said 2.1 will be released during the week of nov 15th
I'm just waiting xD
Really SE Latm really work? LOL, but will make that rom a difference to have the nordic or global?

In the post from xperia10 it is X10a CUST-GEL NAM1 1234-4820 this is not the KIT #, it is what you need to get
PC Companion to do a repair. Put in KIT # and you get back up to date no new firnware available.
GEL = GEneric Latin
It is out today 11/17, I loaded it this morning.

[Q] Root progress fro x10 mini pro Build 2.0.2.A.0.24

I'm opening a new thread since the others about rooting have tons of pages and most of them are regarding this issue...
z4root and the other methods to root our x10 does not work with the last Build.
If anyone finds a way to root it again, please post the answer. If not, wait patiently until there is a solution, it doesn't help to keep bothering all the xda users...
Let's hope there's a fix soon!

I can make it for x10 mini pro users as long as someone can provide me some specific files.
First of all, i need an X10 mini pro owner that has already updated to 2.0.2.A.0.24.
He has to go to C:\Program Files\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\db\xxxxxxxx\blob_fs\ directory.
We need three files:
FILE_xxxxxxx about 110Mb
FILE_xxxxxxx about 13Mb
FILE_xxxxxxx about 64kb
They have to be the latest files added in this directory (short them by date)
Upload them somewhere and i will try to make a prerooted rom.
PS: It would be better for all of you if the firmware is Generic (Nordic or UK)
Regards, D_d
making it for mini pro will be uplaoded in some hrs...

[Q] Australian X10a - Debrand & Update

Hi All,
I've recently purchased an X10 and while its quite a nice phone, I'm sure it would be a hell of a lot nicer if it was running 2.1 - some things which are "missing" in 1.6 have started to annoy me haha.
To this end, it would appear Telstra are about the slowest telco on the planet to release an update. My current firmware is as follows:
X10a
Country: Australia, Brand: Telstra
Phone Software Version: 1227-4612_R2BA023 GENERIC
I understand that if I follow a tutorial such as the "Debrand your Xperia X10 [Tutorial]" on xperiax10.net (google finds it, I'm not allowed to link yet sorry!) and debrand it, SEUS will then automatically update my phone to 2.1 next time I try to update.
Can anyone tell me what is a good X10a firmware for use in Australia? Note that it needs to be X10a since I use an 850MHz "nextg" network. The list on the link above appears to give me a rather limited set of choices, none of which sound generic or australian (what makes latin america latin america??).
If anyone could give me some hints that would be most apprecitated!
Thanks,
Tom

Which no doubt stems from xda, so you might as well use the original guides from here.
X10Flash 2.1 final & 2.1 Firmware (Update Flasher 14.11.2010)
That will debrand and update you to 504 firmware, then you can install xRecovery, then install a prerooted .24 which is the latest FW, which can't be rooted in the usual methods just yet.
And give this a read too - Step By Step Flashing 1.6 - 2.1
Aside of Xperiax10user advice. After you are done with the upgrade to. 504 2.1 version I recommend you to follow this easy thread to install Xrecovery, delete Junk apps and install Zdizihu's JIT v2...

1. Watch this tutorial.
2. Go here and download the flash tool and the X10a 2.1 world generic.
3. Flash the firmware as in the tutorial.
4. Enjoy!
Tom, I had exactly the same issue with Telstra. My brother is with Optus and had his months ago. I finally cracked it and de-branded my phone, installed 2.1 and it all went fine. Trust me its worth it. Then i rooted it and have'nt looked back... goo luck mate
Hi,
Thanks for the advice! I followed the tutorial and updated to 504, then flashed again to .24, however on both of these my bluetooth does not work :-/ Windows 7 shows nothing in the services menu and the phone seems to pair with devices but never connect. Also the .24 ROM available appears to have been a X10i ROM, this doesn't seem to have mattered though as 850MHz HSDPA still seems to work.
Any thoughts on fixing bluetooth?
I haven't installed the rooted version btw and I'm not quite sure what xrecovery does? Thanks!!
Fixed BT - turns out it didn't like to talk to my MacBookPro on Windows - updating Boot Camp drivers to 3.2 fixed that.
As for xrecovery, what does it do? And how does one root 0.24?
Thanks for the help!

You could have saved time and flashed straight to it using SEUS if you didn't want to root.

Allows you to flash to the phone at boot, so you can install custom and user ROMS, themes, and pretty much anything else.

So you need to use the flashtools to flash back to 504, root, install xRecovery, then install the Pre-rooted .24.

Working Root on 2.3.3 locked bootloaders! :) (Works on all Xperia Plays except R800X)

Ive seen this on the arc section and it works !
Do not try this if you have an unlocked bootloader or if you dont know what your doing! I'm not resposible if you break or brick your phone!
If you're already on a rooted .184/.181 firmware and OTA update is available for you just update your firmware. If not:
- Backup the apps you need (if you have root)
- flash to .184 UK firmware with the flashtool (Do a clean install or else you will have alot of force closes)
- heres the .184 UK firmware and the flash tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
- Use Gingerbreak http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765 or Superoneclick to root your device
- Update your Play using a OTA(over the air) update(Got to settings->About phone->Software update)
- Restore your apps
- Enjoy your rooted 2.3.3!!!
NOTE !!! : The only thing you should do after you flash and before ota update is to root and nuthin more.
NOTE 2: The Generic UK firmware works worldwide. Doesn't matter what phone you have except for the Verizon model. So if you have an AT&T R800a dev/google conference unit or UK or Rogers or France or any other phone. It will work It will not brick your phone

If you're allready on a rooted .181 and OTA update is available for you just update your firmware. If not:
- flash to a 3.0.A.2.181 firmware with the flashtool
- Use Gingerbreak or Superoneclick to root your device
- Update your Arc/Play using a OTA(over the air) update(Got to settings->About phone->Software update)
- Enjoy your rooted 2.3.3!!!
Note this only works on .181 firmwares

Hi guys,
So far this methode only works with the .181 global generic firmware(1247-1061) on the Arc.
I think if you flash the global generic .181 firmware for the play this methode should also work for you guys.
good luck!

I can confirm that this is not working for me. I've flashed the UK generic 1.84 a while back. I've removed some bloatware after rooting with gingerbreak.
Today I read this thread and gave it a try. It downloads the update and when I click ok it shuts off and does it's thing with the four dots. When it reboots it goes through the Sony txt and bootup anim and then the lock screen and says it's unable to update?
I've tried it twice. My phone is sim unlocked from purchase. Could it be the removed bloatware or a modified framework that causes it?
Regards Dousan...
e: I did it OTA.
help......
i have a strange problem i was on 2.3.3 unrooted
i tried to downgrade to the uk generic firmware in this post with
flashtool, it flashed ok i restarted phone but
when phone goes to desktop its blank just the darkblue wallpaper with nothing on it
kust the time in the top right taskbar and the signal strenth and the simcard symbol with a red x on it and the battery status bar
and that it.
it wont scroll left/right for more home screens, none of the buttons do anything
apart from power button and volume up/down
when i scroll the notification bar down it just says emergency calls only
and then in the top left its got the numbers 1980 3 8
what the hell is goin on
my fone boots up but i cant use it in any way
Is the OTA update available everywhere? Mines on 2.3.2 but if i try to OTA it says im already on the latest firmware.

You need to unroot otherwise it will say that it is "unofficial firmware" and will not let you upgrade. Remove JIT and go to flashtool thread and flash global generic.
damn it... why wont you read?
