The "H" your seeing stands for HSDPA...which is actually better than 3G. As for the browsing problems, after you flashed the 2.1 generic and started your phone up for the first time did you properly add the rogers APN settings or did you choose automatic internet settings?
I flash my X10a with the nordic 2.1 firmare and I also get the "H" and I added my rogers apn settings manually and my phone is absolutly perfect. No problems at all.
If you need the proper rogers apn settings to use you can pm me.
I upgraded to 1.6 Generic UK to then get the 2.1 upgrade last week as could not wait for Orange...
Yesterday, Orange came out with 2.1 and so wanted to get the new Orange update that just came out, so I followed the debranding method from xperia.net but instead of using generic UK db files, I used my old ones I did a back up of! Took me about 6 attempts but finally got the timing right and hey presto, old 1.6 Orange was back.. and then it told me I had a new update waiting..

H = 3.5G = faster than 3G. In 1.6, there was H, but no icon to differentiate.

Same question, very important for me! X10a, Rogers, branded, locked, un-rooted (yes, I'm just a simple user, not a crime a believe ) -- upgraded via seus to 2.1 rogers. Too many bugs for me to keep it, so jsut wanna go back to 1.6 rogers if possible! Is there a step by step instruction to use in this particular case? Thanks!
Hello,
I have just flashed my U20A in Australia to 2.1 and now I cannot access Three's 3G network as the phone is being detected as a U20i, is there any fix?
Also, is there any chance I will be able to recover the Planet 3 application from somewhere?
EDIT: I fixed the 3G by editing build.prop, I was wondering if there is a way to make it so that a specific website goes through an APN even if you are connected to WiFi.
Thanks,
Tanis
Flashed U20i
Hi Tanis,
Im pleased you seem to have overcome your problem. Im hoping to use a bit of the knowledge you have gained to get me thru a change I want to make to my Mini Pro.
I want to change from U20i to U20a.
Im presumeing you flashed to a 2.1 Rom you downloaded from some where. And that it was obviously a U20i build.
What steps did you use and what Apps did you use.Iim probably more interesested in the edit you did to build.prop. Did this requre rooting or did you edit the file before reflashing to the phone.
You seem to be on network carrier 3 which I believele has all bands on their mini Pros made available. Is that correct? If so what is the CDF number you used please

I have a dell streak 5 retail unlocked phone/tablet running stock 2.2.2 and after rooting my phone I am no longer able to connect to any cell network, I followed this guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17965116&postcount=11 to flash the latest stock unlocked retail ROM and recovery but still no reception ?
Check for APN names (settings/wireless networks/mobile networks/APN names) I don't know who your carrier is, but for US T-Mobile, the APN name is: epc.tmobile.com (this should be entered into the APN name field).... if it's not there, manually enter it. Hope that helps

Hi,
Anybody with any answer ?

Hi guys,
I'm currently an AT&T customer who's thinking to switch to Tmobile's
$30/month for Unlimited text&web plan
After googled some articles regarding AT&T X10a and the Tmobile(USA) 3G
I'm still not really clear about some key facts.
Please allow me to explain my situation now:
Origin: I bought it from AT&T store
Unlocked? YES
Model: X10a (I found this on the sticker located on the back of my phone)
********************************************************
But I flashed to different baseband and ROM
Info. I found in the "About Phone"
Model number: X10i
Android version: 2.3.3
Baseband version: 2.1.71
Kerel version:2.6.29-00054-g5f01537
[email protected]#1
ROM: Wolf_Xperia_6.0.0s (Android 2.3)
I found a thread and somebody mentioned about:
"The AT&T XPERIA X10A supports the 850HMz, 900MHz, 1800MHz, 1900MHz, and 2100HMz bands. So since the phone doesn't support the needed 1700MHz band, the phone will be stuck with 2G speed on the T-Mobile network if you continue using the Sony Ericsson generic world 2.1 (for X10A) firmware."
Currently, I am using AT&T SIM card and data plan as well, and I have NO problem getting "H" at most of the time and sometimes "3G"
Q1: Is that means my phone is STILL X10a but not X10i which was shown
in the "About Phone"?
Q2: I will NOT get Tmobile HSPA/3G working on my phone, unless I get a X10i?
or I can flash it and/or de-brand it?
This question might be asked somewhere, but my case is a bit different,
since I am using different baseband and ROM from stock.
If anyone had same experience and/or you already knew the answer,
please help me out
Thanks in advance
James
X10a will remain x10a even though it shows x10i. For the 3g I am pretty sure T-Mobile is 1900Mhz for gsm? Correct me if I am wrong

Thanks, that helps a lot.
btw I knew that T-mobile uses 1700/2100 for its HSPA

Yes, like jailbroken iphones, an X10a will only receive at about 119kbps (edge) when connected to T-Mobile network.

Hi, My name is Masaki, I'm from Peru, I have a problem with my Xperia X10a, my phone was operator locked (I buy it from my friend, he uses this phone with movistar operator but I have a line with another operator called claro.
My friend say he can unlock the operator lock, for this, he use a program called medusa box, after a few minutes he finally can unlock the phone, but, now, the phone only can connect to edge band, the 3G don't work anymore, somebody can help me?
Masaki
PS:
All work ok in the phone, I tried original rom (android 2.1), updated rom (2.3.3) custom rom... custom kernel, with no result...
when I choose "only WCDMA mode", I lost the singal (phone and data) and a error appear (no operator found), only work when I use "GSM only" or "prefered WCDMA to GSM" (but work in GSM/edge mode only)
the local operator (both) are X10a band compatible
Did you try relocking the phone ?
Maybe a bad unlock procedure.

weird problem
can't lock again with that soft.
You can try this. I found that in some roms it is more easy to change than in others. Miui roms seem to have more settings to change than stock based roms.

Since Claro doesn't use 2100 MHz band you will have Edge only. Or switch to carrier with 2100 band for 3G.

Well, if 850 and 1900 are what is supported in your Country, and both 850 and 1900 are not available in the X10i, it probably would be best for you to sell the X10i and buy an X10a.

Since your OP stated it was an X10i, that would have been the problem with no hspa. I am not sure but perhaps restoring to original 2.3.3 and baseband following the link below exactly might get your hspa working. Good luck.

My phone is a x10a model from the start, I tried the original rom from local claro (android 1.6 and android 2.1) I tried the SE generic version update (android 2.3.3) custom roms + Kernel: doom kernel 1133 + Xperia S ported to X10 from chickensito (Android 2.3.7)
The problem still remain
I tried to set the apn manually... no result

people have helped you and you need to find a new carrier as the one you have dose not support the radio frequencies of the x10a try to trade sell it and buy a x10i or get a carrier that supports the radio of the phone you have.
x10a
My local carrier (both) work with Xperia X10a, X10i don't work here.
try if you can get a band on another carrier preferably does have the the
2100mhz band just to confirm that your radio is working
Sent from my X10i using XDA
Found a solution yet?? I have a similar problem with my X10a.
I'm with Telcel in México, simlocked (i got my cellphone from Telcel), but the radio signal is not working, tried with another sim card and got the same result...
carrier
there is only 2 carrier in my country, and don't work with 2100 freq
No, my problem is not solved. any ideas?
tried reflashing x10a baseband? any errors when forcing 3g mode? e.g can't enable radio etc.... ?
