[Q]What will change for the x10 if bootloader gets cracked? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
I was wondering what there would change for the x10 if the bootloader gets cracked? What will there be new and stuff? What can we do more?
Hope someone answers my question.

Hey I would also like to know the benefits of cracking bootloader
Sent from my X10a using XDA App

I hope the call volume gets hacked and louder.
I have my X10 Un-sim'd at the moment and am using another phone.
I mean hey, It's still runs Torque which is why I bought an Android phone to begin with.

overclocking, custom kernels, 16 mil colors..... just to name a few

What will be possible? Pretty much anything.
At the moment the biggest issue is the inability to change the kernel, so much is controlled this way. A cracked bootloader opens the path for custom kernels and that is what will make the biggest difference.

Cool, lets hope that everyone thats involved in cracking it will have as soon as possible succes with it!

X10 mini E10i ROOT,ROMS,HACKS

As there's no separate device page for our mini X10's, lets discuss it here instead.
Obviously X10i and E10i hardware is totally different and thus we can't use roms or anything from the "bigger" phone.
For now the Android 1.6 is almost usable on it, but I frankly hate the sony customizations and totally unusable text-entry and phone-dialer apps ..
A clean 1.6/2.1 ROM with HTC Sense would make me much happier.
But for now at least I'd like to solve the fonts problem, i.e. after getting phone rooted, installing custom fonts should be easy.
Anyone done that so far?
Please share your thoughts.

There is two ways of buying a phone
1. By the looks
2. By the insides
If you want both, the easiest is to take the looks and buy what you like to look at, and then make the insides as you want afterwards.
When android gives us the posiblity (after root access to bootloader level) to make an X10 look like an HTC on the inside, why would anyone ever buy an HTC phone?

You can hard-reset the E10i (mini) by pressing power button while holding the "home" button (middle one)
So thats not a problem.

It's quite easy to replace the keyboard and phone dialer on the E10i without rooting the phone. I would love to root my E10i as well but I would also like to keep the text input. I find the T9 style text input to be perfect on this phone because of the small size. I downloaded a bigger keyboard from the market to try out but I quickly switched back. T9 was just much better suited for this phone. I also downloaded a new dialer but it wasn't built for the small screen so it didn't look good.
Btw, what's this font problem you speak of?
Root need for x10 mini
any idea when rooting for X10 mini? Did developers working on that... eagerly waiting to root this device.
Well that's the big question in'it, are any devs even workin on root for the E10i, eh?

True, you can replace keyboard, dialer and launcher.
I am using custom HTC-type keyboard (smart keyboard), and launcher (Zeam) that looks like a normal android, not "one widget per screen" type.
For emails I use K-9, and WiFi Manager to auto-setup wifi connections.
Fancy Widget for main screen weather and alarm access.
So far the problems I have encountered :
1. bluetooth connection to car radio is broken (calls can be made, but sound quality is terrible with noise) -- had same problem with HTC Hero on Android 1.5, solved by installing Android 2.1
2. WiFi won't stay up over 1 hour, after 60min it always disconnects, so SIP phone has problems getting calls in -- was also the same on HTC Hero, again, solved by 2.1 upgrade
3. I really miss the HTC Contact list and Dialer, built in one is useless, even the android standard one would be much better, but can't be installed
4. AirVoice can't be used without root (call recording app, very useful)
5. Overall response times could be better with optimized kernel, battery life is far from perfect
Good evening, this is my first post, so let me say this forum is a great source of knowledge and hope for every smartphone owner.
Anyway, i own a SE X10 Mini and i'd like to see a separate section for this phone (and for X10 mini pro) like there is a separate section for htc hd mini or htc wildfire (that seems to be desire mini). Is it possible? This way people will be able to post in the appropriate place. Thanks Mods.
Then, could any dev find a way to root our X10 mini and make us as happy as bigger X10 owners? Please help us.

How to crack the bootloader?

Does anyone has any idea what does this means? and what does the procedure involves? any simple tutorial?
so man what is bootloader??????????
here is what i found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=619153
still not clear need clear idea
only thing i know about our bootloader is that it cannot be cracked(a secured type) if somebody or someone is willing to mess their mini or mini pro on cracking the bootloader let the lord have praise on him/her

The thing is that SE's bootloader is not like htc's, where you can interact with it somehow with adb and fastboot and stuff, SE's doesn't even have a normal recovery going around, so we can't replace it, since we don't know how it works. At least that is the conclusion i came to (sorry for assuming **** and everything, if someone knows something, please, wikileak us)

Simply, the answer is xRecovery... Even Mini/pro is capable of custom ROMs now. But because the bootloader is still uncracked, we can only replace the system, not kernel and drivers.

Thats a great idea.........If you got enough money to buy another Smart Phone....
for me i would rather put it in a hydraulic press and crush it
I like my phone, so i would not even hurt it... Better way is to crack the bootloader.
And if it cannot be cracked, at least we can try to port some useful things from 2.2 and make ourself the dualtouch.
SE software is anyhow of no use. It´s SE hardware, Android and 3rd party software, that makes this phone the good choice.
No more updates from SE needed and for me even not wanted.
You don't seem to understand, we can't get dual touch without cracking the bootloader!! We need to crack it to change the drivers, since the ones that are installed now do not implement dual touch support. As it is now, either we crack the thing, or we wait for the se update, there are no alternatives... Well, maybe find away to change kernels without having to break the bootloader but hell, I don't know...

meh replacing kernel without cracking bootloader...
that would be my only wish...
but for sure i never comes true coz bootloader needs to get cracked
i dont know this for sure
but i think its a kind of the iphone chain of trust
the bootloader checks the kernel if its original
if not i wont go any further
so we need to break this chain in the begin by cracking the bootloader so it wont check
i dont know this for sure but i think it works like that

[Q] Currently unlockable bootloaders

For us with currently unlockable bootloaders (branded phones), will removing the sim-lock give us the option to unlock the bootloader?
No
That was a definitive answer. Strange, cause I know people with unlockable bootloaders in their Arcs and Rays have managed to unlock them.

Slightly worried about getting the phone from Rogers here. Hopefully the Sony store will have a working unit so I can enter the command into the dialer to see if I can easily unlock it or not.

Currently there is no way to root without unlocking the bootloader, it will probably come at some point, but not now .
There is no drawback to unlocking your bootloader though, as they will still probably accept your device for warranty, unless you fry your phone with overclocking and such.
But yea, branded phones cant be unlocked at this moment, or well, they haven't figured it out yet. So if you are branded you can't even unlock your bootloader...yet . Give it time, everything will be figured out in time .

I am under the impression that selling it in the Canadian Sony store means it will not be branded for any carrier, since they'll be offering the phone unlocked. Probably even if they offer it on contract with a carrier like Rogers, it would still be unlocked, but just subsidized with your contract plan.
edit: They did say that the phone is exclusively with the Sony Store in Canada, so you can't get it straight from Rogers anyways, so no worries!
If there is brand in rogers, I am pretty sure they will lock the bootloader just like they did in xperia arc
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Bought mine from the sony store locked to rogers. I can confirm that the bootloader are in fact locked. Bought mine at launch early tuesday morning.(12th)
They currently only sell XpS's locked to rogers. They unfortunately don't sell the unbranded version(/unlocked). They were also surprised by this fact apparently.
BTW the rogers bloatware that came with the device is annoying as hell. If you're going to buy on frim the Sony store in canada. Debranding would be the first thing I would suggest to do. Seeing as rooting or custom roming is out of the question.

Have to admit that i'm a little disappointed i got my phone as soon as it was released on my neywork.
That was before the information came to light, that branded fw's have their bootloaders locked.
Had i known that BEFORE i took the plunge, i would have upgraded via a third party mobile phone shop.
I am even more disappointed to see custom roms and tweaks coming out, only to find myself unable to go anywhere near them. Grrrr!
I have de-branded my Xps but i still have the bloat-crap on it. Which is now filling the ten whole spaces in my main menu.
I have been checking on here everyday hoping for a root solution and also on the omnius and setool sites but still i am without a solution :-( and my biggest concern of all is...
As most the devs and rom chefs have unlocked bootloaders, that means hardly anyone (if anyone) will be working on a solution. Double :-(

I hear you bro
Don't worry, it will come
I have faith in this community that something will be figured out. A few weeks ago it wasn't even possible to flash custom kernels and such, and they managed to figure it out. Now that things are flowing nicely, the rom developers have started working on making things again, and maybe there's more things being looked into in terms of rooting.
I've been here since my X1 and the community hasn't let me down yet, I'm confident they will find a way to get a root, and probably (given the speed even a tester CM9 came out) before ICS.
I guess you might have wait for those paid software like setool .... It will be like the same case like xperia arc. Rogers or any branded phone do not allow bootloader unlock.

My XS was locked to Orange UK 10 minutes back. Bootloader unlockable - No.
Got the code from Orange and phone unlocked to any network now.
Imagine my surprise when I saw this: Bootloader unlockable - Yes
Talk about double bonus
Too bad the phone is going to Sony on Monday for the yellow screen issue.

Interesting... I'm a bit skeptical though...

Yeah, I can't take the plunge and use this phone as my daily driver. Not with Timescape (or whatever you call the Sony UI). I want to be able to use AOSP apps. What I hate is when the UI elements creep over when you're using an app (stuff like checkboxes) and it just makes the overall experience feel inconsistant.
I have since buying the phone debranded it and flashed the singpore rom, and it does a good job at eliminating bloatware, but I want to go in deeper and install CM9 whenever that's ready.
The phone does have what looks like the test point connections, I wanted to mess around with them but I didn't have the proper screws to remove the battery cover. Anyone know what the size of the screws are so I can get a screwdriver that fits?

If you could have done the test point process, I'm sure it would already be posted here. It's quite possible there will be some type of testpoint exploit in the future.. But as of now not the case. I wouldnt suggest messing around inside your phone unless your ready to void your warrenty and at least somewhat know what your doing.
Who knows you could be some secret dev-ninja-genius. ...but then again your asking about screwdriver sizes instead of just eyeballing it like most people would do, so I very much doubt that bro.
Just my 2 cents.

I know you were just trying to be mindfull of what happens to my phone and stuff, but if I "eyeballed" the size what good would it do if I don't have a small enough bit to fit the screw? I was able to remove the frearson screws but am missing the torx.
A test point method is still possible (maybe) but the reason that there are no posts about it is that the software used (Omnius, SEtools, etc) is not yet compatible with the XS.
Im toooo interested too, my phone has bootloader blocked for my phone company, so I cant get root or do anything
Im waiting, I hope too much they find a solution soon !

[Q]Selling or Unlocking bootloader

Hey guys, so I'm a bit disappointed with my Xperia U's speed and small screen and the enormous RAM eating (friends Galaxy Y has more free than mine).
I have few questions I want an answer.
1. Is there any phone with big screen (4 inch +), dual-core processor with pretty good development here in XDA which I can afford for ~250$ (max 300$)
2. Is selling Xperia U for 180$ a reasonable price? I used it for 3 months, not a single scratch, looks perfectly new + some random stuff added that I don't need, like original Sony headphones (not the ones that come with phone).
3. Does unlocking bootloader and having a custom kernel have big impact on performance? Like could I play games like Real Racing 3 without any lagging on custom kernel? Because on locked bootloader stock kernel and custom ROM I'm lagging a lot.
4. Will we have jelly bean ports? I've been said multiple times that we're getting a port after releasing to P or Go? So it will be most likely only Unlocked Bootloader right?
5. What would you do if I were me? Sell and buy something else or unlock the bootloader?
~Thanks
I would wait definitely as jb for p is out today
Secondly unlocking bootloader will let u use custom kernels much btr than stock ones
So give this a try first
It's about when selling I can sell with warranty from the internet shop I bought. If I unlock I have hardware, but not software warranty.

Some informations I require

Hey guys I'm about to buy a new LG Optimus L9 P760 phone in the next few days and I need some feedback opinions about it. I'm asking especially those who owned it or owns it. Basically the phone has only 4GB internal memory but you can add a microSD card. From what I've heard you cannot move applications on the SD Card which means your phone will be able to handle only about 2.30 GB of its 4 GB capacity. So that's a worry for me because I cannot install the things I want within only 2.3 GB. So my #1 question is if there's any possibility to move the applications in SD Card without rooting, because that's the only way you can move them.
#2 question: Can a LG Optimus L9 P760 run the newest games, like Asphalt 7, NFS MW, PES 2013 or FIFA 2013 without lag?
#3 question: Is the 5MP camera good enough to take clear pictures? Because I'm about to use it for taking some pictures here and there. I had a Xperia X10 mini phone and its camera was good enough for me, I liked the pictures made by them.
Thanks.
Hi?
You can move apps to SD after rooting.
You can probably run all those games after rooting and overclocking.
The camera is descent. Other phones take better pictures.

Hey,
I'm about to buy LG Optimus L9 tomorrow but I need some question answered.
1. Can you move apps to SD card without rooting? Like updating to a newer Android OS?
2. If I root, does it affect my cellphone warranty?
3. If I try to root, is there any chance of destroying my phone's software and make it useless?
1. Can you move apps to SD card without rooting? Like updating to a newer Android OS?
I believe you can do this with the latest firmware update(Jelly Bean).
2. If I root, does it affect my cellphone warranty?
Nope.
3. If I try to root, is there any chance of destroying my phone's software and make it useless?
Nope. We can only soft-brick the device. No way to hard-brick it.
Hey,
Thanks for the time you've spent answering my questions. I have one more question: what's soft-brick and what's hard-brick and what's the difference between them?
I'm looking forward into buying the phone tomorrow, it looks like a good piece of business given the price proportional to the specs the phone has.
How do you rate on a 1 up to 10 scale rate your LG Optimus L9 performance?
// Apparently the rooting will invalidate the warranty of the phone.

You are welcome.
Soft-brick is recoverable by us.
Hard-brick is only recoverable by LG.
I rate this device as a 6. That is only because I am picky and the P769 model has so many software issues right now. But with CM 10.1 it is a little better. Battery life is what I like the most.
If you un-root the device before sending in for any kind of service the warranty will be honored.
If you send it in rooted LG will decide if they want to honor the warranty.
Well I'm yet not decided what to buy, I've got to choose between LG L9 and Xperia Arc S.
Oh and by the way, in what case you risk to hardbrick the phone?

I used both phones and between them much better is LG for me. In arc s just camera is better. Performance is bad and with only few apps and no games I felt that my phone is slow. Next thing arc s doesn`t have official jelly bean update and to unlocking bootloader may be not possible (deppends when phone was produced). Imo lg is much better choice.
well hardbricking lg p760 is impoosible. in theory you can hardbrick your phone when you unlock bootloader and try to install custom ROM, but in lg p760 case you can only softbrick your phone as people here say so no worries here.

I'm not sure about moving apps to sd without root, but in android development thread there people write guides how to make it work so problems can happen so root may be necessary. remember that unlocking bootloader you lose warranty not rooting (but still you can try send your device to lg in case something will be wrong with your device after unlocking bootloader. Sometimes they don"t care about it).

As far as I know rooting with locked bootloader don't influence warranty in any way. Just root lg using method for locked bootloader but even if i'm wrong unrooting is quiet easy and lg will honour warranty for sure.

Nope. That is a myth started by people that do not understand lithium-ion batteries. Enjoy your new phone.
Hey guys, is there any way to make the phone play music louder? I believe the standard power is not enough for me.

After you will get root access which will allow you to install custom audio modifiers which will blow you ears. You may get twice as loud sound if you set it properly. Also amazing sounds effects as dynamic bass. Many settings for various headphones, earphones. It's called viper4android. I'm on my phone right now so I'm lazy and I won't search for it. I may give you link tomorrow if you will decide to root also I prefer to get Cwm also for backup. Dunno how to get cwm with locked bootloader but if you will unlock bt im open for help.

Haha, I'm totally a newbie in rooting thing, so I may need to spend some time researching a few things here and there.
Hey guys it's me again,
I'm writing this on my phone as I bought it for a few weeks already and I like the phone.
Now I have a few questions I've encountered during usage of this phone:
#1 - I usually play a game on the phone and use the Internet so it barely stays on stand-by. Basically the battery life goes between 6 to 13 hours. Is it right to stay this time?
#2 - So when I was charging the phone, turned off as the battery was empty, it usually showed me the battery icon and a yellow triangle with a rounded arrow rotating. Until today when in the same situation, it was only the battery icon without triangle. What does it mean?
#3 - Sometimes when I press the lock screen button it takes a caption of the screen and I have to press the menu button while I'm on the main screen to make it lock again. Why is that happening?
