O2 update root - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just a quickie, I can now update my o2 UK handset, I have had the notification. I am currently on o2 .504, so I guess the update is to .24? Anyway I need to know if it will be possible to root the handset after update using z4root, or any other easy method?
Cheers.

What version do you have now? Unless it's newer than R2BA023, just use this guide... Newbies Guide to Rooting X10 and giving you the newest firmware!
Latest version is R2BA024 relased last week in HongKong.
Looking for R2BA024 ROOT
What are the changes in the R2ba024 update.?

The real question is when will we get the 2.3 update from at&t. When the official 2.1 came out for the x10 at&t was late by 6months or more. I suggest you spend the time to read and research about using & installing custom roms because eventually a 2.3 custom rom based on official se sources will be available.

Another option is to debrand your phone, which will remove all of the att bloatware by flashing the global generic firmware, which will allow you to get the update as soon as it is released instead of waiting for att to release their version, it took them around eight months to release their 2.1 update. If you aren't comfortable flashing it youself there are sites, like davinciteam.com, that will make it easier for a price.

How do you flash your device to remove all the att crap and id like to be able to overclock my x10a, any help would be great
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
Flash a custom rom after rooting. If you find that too complex you can use TotalGSM or Davinci to debrand the phone, but they charge.
Debranding from att is easiest by just flashing a generic version with flashtool. Or root google debranding xperia x10 its super easy with root explorer

But how do I get a flash tool to do this?

Do just like hoskopico said, root your phone, buy Root Explorer on the market, and edit the build.prop file to one that can be updated (see how to debrand and the list of updated kits, do a quick search for how to debrand and look under "General" for the roll-up to see what kits are available.).

You would probably loose your phone too as there isnt a 2.3.4 rom out for the play apart from CM7
write the wrong thing
Are you talking about the new xloud update? If so I believe others have tried it and lost their root. There is also a chance of bricking if you have your bootloader unlock since that update is not OTA.
If you mean from 2.3.2 to 2.3.3 then do it OTA and you will not loose your root.
The OTA of 2.3.4 is out in the UK and I am tempted to update seeing as how the 2.3.3 update kept the root in place.
Can anyone here verify updating a rooted Play from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 using OTA works and keeps the phone rooted afterwards?
2.3.4 already out in the UK? Really?

Its definitely out in the UK, the OTA version anyway. Got the system update alert yesterday and tried updating this morn.
The update downloaded (8mb) but didn't install probably cause I messed up with Titanium.
