Two days ago my phone (Hong Kong Version) popped up an update notification to version V10B. The last current version of the hong kong firmware was V10A and it seems to work pretty well (No sd unmount or random reboots whatsoever). I have it rooted and using mikos kernel. Does anyone know what changes does this new firmware brings to the table? 2.2.1(unrooteable)? any kind of fix or added feature?
Thnks
1. Unrootable
2. Sd unmount issue
3. Pretty laggy compare to 2.2
4. Consume little bit extra ram compare to 2.2
I myself upgraded but then downgraded using kdz flasher.

Hi everyone, i need some advise.
I had the global 2.1 rom on my rogers phone and it was beautiful, fast and flawless.
It did bother me i had an x10i rom on my phone, so i decided to change the codes to brazil and do the reinstall from seus to get 2.1 from brazil on my rogers phone.
This is where it went all bad, the update failed 3 times and on the forth it went through.
1. My x10 now has a few issue's, terrible signal strength, no bars in my basement. with the global rom i was getting 2 to 3 bars.
2. My wifi connects once and after the phone sleeps i need to restart the phone to get it to connect.
3. The app men u is slow, it opens fast but it takes about 7 to 8 swipes before it moves, then it sticks to where it scrolls to and again 7 to 8 swipes to get it to scroll. with the global rom the app menu was super fats no hesitation. i could go from the first app to the last very fast.
4. generally seems slower.
Here is the advice i would like to get.
1.should i reinstall the brazil rom?
2. should i go to rogers rom?
3. should i go to the global rom again?
One last thing, has anyone else had an issue with the brazilian rom?
Thanks for any tips/ advise.
i did the same with mine did not like having the 10i im not having any of your problems but I would also like to get rogers 2.1 on my phone also. but no issues with the brazil one so far.
Brazil Rom works like a charm on my x10a, I tried the nordic and the global roms but the Brazil Rom is the smoothest. Plus the app launcher doesn't lag.
I would suggest to flash the phone again through SEUS then do a factory reset for the phone and ur SD card

thanks guy's.
I'm glad to here it is not the brazil rom. i will reset and do the reinstall using seus and post back if i have any issue's.
Gota love the xda forums, everyone is so good at sharing experinces. makes it one of my favorite places to hang out and read.
im about to do this to my x10a as well, is this the correct code?
X10a CUST-BR NAM1 1234-4836 1232-4526 Customized BR/Sensuous black
Yes, that code is the right one for brazilian 2.1 generic fw.
Ok all is good now, seems that when the seus update failed it caused some issue's.
or doing the reset of the phone and sd card might have saved me.
Anyways all is good again.
Thanks

According to Sony Ericsson Product Blog page LAM firmware has been released isnt the one with code 1232-4388?
Not sure if this is a good thread for this but I couldn't really find a response. I got a White X10 from Rogers a while back. I already debranded it using Generic Latin America (I think Argentina?? it was something like xploid, I can't remember exactly). Now I want to change the region so I can update to 2.1 but I'm not exactly sure how. Someone told me to I should change it to Brazil but I didnt know how to do that using the SEUS? I have an X10a with R2BA026. When I do the lock screen code (menu, back back etc...) under Country it says Generic LAM (b) - Brand is Customized. Under software info it has Phone Software Version: 1227 - 4612_R2BA026 Generic. Not sure if all of this was helpful but I hope someone can help me I really dont know when or how I'll be able to update to 2.1 without changing the region
Not able to bring phone back to original using SEUS
I tried upgrading to 2.3 but had no SD, so tried bringing it back to 2.1 Brazil 1232-4526 edited the custom files and what not but SEUS downloads the something than says my phone is already up to date. I'm using US X10a generic 2.1 right now. any ideas? also tried using recovery image I made with xrecovery but phone boots to SE colored logo than restarts.
I've just downloaded and installed the official rom V10H using the LG mobile support tool.
Android ver: 2.2.2
Build date: FEB-23-2011
The phone feels way faster now and boot up needs less time.
Also some problems with USB connection are now corrected and LG PC Suite now works flawlesly with the phone.
Has anybody else installed this rom?
Me (my Light ROM). The only problem I can find is me not being able to play "The Impossible Game". The phone panics and then restarts Tried this with two builds: One Vodafone branded and one unbranded KDZ for Germany.
So yep, I think this is a 2.2.2 problem.
Other than that, it's perfectly fine. So far.
Hey. Is that OPEN EUROPIAN 10H. I wanted to download that one and flash it but on LG site it says forbiden and trough LG Update all i can do is flash 10E German version becaouse my phone is for German market. Is touch Lag fixed on 10h?
No it isn't .
able to root using z4root or other?
I dont think so. This root bug is fixed from 2.2.1
I do the v10h upgrade from the officiallg site, but its unable to make root the phone with superoneclick.
The process stop in a loop of the psneuter component. Can anyone to make the phone root with other way?

The German unbranded version before that was 10a, right? Is it normal for the German firmware to revert to German language everytime you restart the phone? This is highly annoying, I like my phones in English.
"The Cell phone is the latest version already. So you don't need to update."
version : v10f
where, how i cen get v10h ?
In Italy today we got v10e. I'm wondering if in different countries there are different versions for the same changelog...
Today I also received an update message for version 10H. Currently I am running V10B.
In this topic I read that after the upgrade rooting will not be possible any more. Is that correct? Or are there ways to root the phone, even after the upgrade to V10H? And what about custom roms, can they still be installed after the upgrade to version 10H?
Sorry for my "dumb" questions, I am new to Android, but learning
Anyone knows the changelogs of the differents version?
LG is making a mess..
I have upgraded my p500 to 2.2.2 and it's awesome. Touch became more sensible and responsive. Crash count of LG preloaded applications decreased seamlessly. 2.2.1 from LG was too buggy.

You must root your phone with superoneclick but not automaticly.You must type a lot of linux commands.I have explanation on serbian language but I can you translate this if you want.If you not find solution write me on [email protected]
This is old but why not use gingerbreak apk to root?
Is my screen too bright, or am I just too ASIAN?!
Hey guys.
I have a a P500 bought from a NZ retailer but parallel imported. I have discovered it has Singapore firmware. I have updated to 2.2.2 but want to downgrade to 2.2 (V10B) so I can root and uninstall bloatware. Using the links provided there is no download for V10B and only for V10A. Is there a huge difference? Can I use another country that will work the same?
It says it is on the vodafone network. If I used the telecom firmware, what would happen?
Thanks

its fine, if u flash a wrong rom, try flashing another one.. ur version should be under V10C i think. Ur call function might screw up, but i think if u flash a custom rom it will be solved
If ur are thanked, please press the thanks button
just to be safe flash a singapore 2.2 rom
hmm yea I wanted to flash the singapore 2.2 rom but it just gives page not found. Is there a way to find the roms that aren't downloadable from that lg link.
As the title goes, do the 2GB RAM version have the screen re-draw and other system wide lag like the 1GB version?
screen re-draw has been fix from the latest firmware ALF6, RAM is not the issue of the re-draws
Has ALF6 been officially released yet? Is it a worldwide firmware?
I'm unbranded in the UK. I'm on ALF2 with no update available.
Well I'm using Omega 6.0 which has the ALF6 firmware. You can just flash the Latest Official stock firmware which ALF6 here (if you don't want any custom rom):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610&highlight=official+stock
@bordikun
Could you please tell me what are the improvements of the new Software update? Thanks
Can't really tell what exactly change/improved, don't know where to look for "changelog" but the main thing is that the re-draws are gone 99%. did not experience it since using ALF6
@bordikun - Thanks kabayan, I would like also to ask if you encounter the copy/paste crashing after updating to latest firmware?
I'm currently using the generic AU firmware and i want to know which countries firmware has the fastest and "stable" updates to the device.
And just a few random questions regarding the firmware that you guys are using on your devices:
- Why have you opted to use that firmware for your device?
- What variations in software did you guys notice when you flashed another countries firmware?( eg. the different bloat/preinstalled software on that specific countries firmware)
- Did you see a drastic change in performance when you jumped to another countries z2 firmware ( this question is in regards to .314 to.314 not .55 to .314 etc)
- Why did you opt to use the stock firmware that you received with your device and instead of flashing another countries firmware?
- From what i heard using the flashtool to flash another countries firmware doesn't void you warranty, is this true?
I'm merely interested because i want to have the best experience and have the latest updates as fast as possible without the need to continuously flash different firmwares to get the latest experience.
.314 ftf should be same everywhere except for baseband...I am using 314 after rooting, removing some bloat and unrooting...battery life is amazing... Easy 2 days without charge

Why did you unroot again?
I prefer it that way...that way I am not accidentally deleting system files from ES file Explorer and also getting rid of files and bits leftover by the root exploit (which are by definition viral in nature ) just makes me feel more secure....
Generic German seems to provide quite regular firmware updates and overall has great stability.

I believe there is a bug that affect all .314 FW - those firmware have trouble getting OTA. Did you receive updates on the AU .314 software?
Flashed Generic German 314 last night. Working very smooth. Hope i will still receive OTA updates. But will wait and see about that.

That's a thread I made, but unfortunately no one has come up with a solution. It also might be a server side error.
I'll keep you posted if I find something out.
EDIT: I just quickly flashed the AU FW, but still no go. If you revert to previous firmware (.402), all updates are displayed properly. That's an obvious glitch with the new FW and all regions are affected.
