[Q] I am tired of this.Help please - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok People I really need your help badly,I am tired of this.My mediascape does not work anymore, no media apps works.No apps displays the media I have in SD card.I can individually open music,video and picture using ES file explorer or play music using MixZing and Muiu Music player but the library is empty.The gallery apps also does not work.I re-flashed it using generic firmware, still nothing.And now I noticed that even ring tone does work,it lets me choose any audio as ring tone but when call comes its just default beep.I don't know what else to say or to do.I tried a lot.Please help if you can, if not don't give me crap about read before posting or where to post or give any comment.I have once contacted SE support and they have said that I done something to the license.Please help me, I don't care if I cant play media, I just want to change my ring tone at least.

What firmware are you on?
After re-flashing the generic firmware did you make any changes of any sort?
Pls check if our SD card is working fine my checking on another phone

I'm going low-tech here and asking you to make sure your USB cable isn't still connected to your phone and computer.
If your USB cable is still connected to your phone and computer your phone will not have access to your sd card.
If it isn't connected we can at least scrub that off the list of possibles.

i hav somethin like tis sort happened to me once
it was the memory card problem
try to reformat ur memory card

Well I dont remember much, I am using Eminence v.12 currently.My phone was perfect after this rom, the only thing i was missing was reboot option in power menu.So added that using forum guide and it worked but framework was changed and animation effect were removed too.Rite after this the media stopped working.So using xrecovery i restored to original firmware, still same problem.Then I reflashed it with generic .24 firmware and still same problem.Regarding sd card I have been non stop using it as flash drive, so i doubt its the sd card but i can try reformatting and see.Thanks for the help

is your phone usb connected to your pc? mounted? can you access your sdcard in your pc? disconnect your phone from pc or unmount it from usb connection to use sdcard in your phone.

Am I Completely Screwed?

My phone wouldn't connect to my computer, like when I plug it in, the LED on the phone turns on, but it wouldn't have the little USB icon in the notification bar, and on my computer, it would say "Device Not Recognized".
I tried different computers, different cables, uninstalling USB drivers, and nothing worked, so I decided to do Factory Reset. Unfortunately, I forgot I deleted the stock Home Launcher (did the whole app cleanup thing), so when I turned my phone on, there was just a black screen with only the notification bar. I could receive messages and texts, but that was it.
I tried restarting my phone, and now it gets stuck at the Sony Ericsson logo. Is there any way to fix it? -- This was on X10a Generic rom.
I also have 2.2. installed in dual boot, but it has some bugs (none of the radios worked, no market, screen keeps flashing).
Will appreciate ANY suggestions on how to fix. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Anyone have similar experiences/know if Rogers will fix it under warranty?
I highly doubt Rogers will agree that it is covered under warranty... I'm not sure how the 2.2 build works.. perhaps you could try install the stock home launcher through that and then factory reset? (But what the launcher has to do with USB I have no idea)
Did you do something specific that caused it to stop working? Maybe you can try reverse that
I deleted the stock launcher and used LauncherPro instead...but when I did factory reset, it deleted all my apps. Not sure if that matters though, because it gets stuck at the Sony Ericsson logo screen now..

Will it go into flash mode?
When I connect while holding down the back button, the LED on the phone goes to green like it's in flash mode, but on my computer, if I use flasher, it says "Unable to open channel", and if I try with PC Companion or SEUS, they don't recognize that the phone's connected.
try to put the home launcher apk on the SD card and then boot on android 2.2 and copy it to the specified folder for that, that should work.

I don't have any file managers installed though. Also no internet or USB, so I can't put any apps on...Unless Android has some sort of built in file manager?
Hmm...When I try booting into 2.1, it gets stuck at the Sony Ericsson logo, but if I swipe my finger across the bottom, it vibrates a little, like when you're unlocking it...
Can you still boot into the 2.2? If so then attatch a usb cable and enable usb debugging. Open up adb and, type
Adb shell
Killall servicemanager
This will reset your phone and fix the flashing screen and radio.
As for your 2.1, I recommend reflashing. Your open channel error is from having the wrong dev Id. There are threads about flashing your phone. I suggest you read carefully, or stick to sony ericsson update service, because you don't seem to be reading threads properly, and we don't want you to break your phone

Thanks everyone for the help. It looks like it was an issue with the SD Card, because I just tried putting a new one in and everything works fine.
*By fine, I mean I can connect through USB and just reflash it.

I have the same issue, i tried another sd card (from a Desire), but still was the same: cannot mount via usb.
What means it was a new one? Have you formatted the sd card?
That's strange...I was able to connect yesterday with the new SD card (like brand new from store), but now it won't work...Tried reformatting, un/re-installing drivers.
I'll keep looking at it, I guess something else I did yesterday must've fixed it...
Tried reformatting the sd, uninstalling drivers too, without success. There are some forums appearing the same issue, i think it is NOT hardware related.
We should investigate this.
What of these programs did you use, before the issue started?
My suspicious programs are:
-Root explorer (starting JiT-toggle-0.1 - with no luck)
-Terminal Emulator (starting JiT-toggle-0.1 - ok)
-ES Security Manager (Thread detector)
I'm very disappointed, we need some good advice.
To check if your SD card is ok, you can buy an USB to SD card adapter AND Micro-SD card adapter. You will get both for about $5 (you don't need high value stuff, beat the eBay monster ).

Hey you might want to reflash the rom again. That should fix it but if you still have this problem go to developer tools ( its an app) and press crash system server

anyone??????
For me this happens when I first boot up. It shows that there is no music in play music, and no pics in the gallery app. I usually just wait, and it fixes it self. Idk why this would work, but try using a file explorer (I us es file explorer) and playing a couple of songs through that. One time play music recognized my songs after doing that, but I don't know if it was because of that.

There's a setting somewhere in system settings that you can switch to use internal storage. I've never had a problem and with the os recognizing media with that checked. Requires a reboot though.

Try to view your sd card from a computer or a file browser, look for sd card1 , sdcard2 .. if you have this its just because of the new
base through the cm10 system. It no longer uses EMMC as the path, easiest fixes are under settings-advanced-use internal storage or copy sd card1 into sdcard0 where the path is looking for music and pictures. That should fix it!! Try to reinstall cm10 if that didnt work, fresh wipe, and before your phone boots up the first time, pull the sd card out and let it boot completely then add the sd card back. GOOD LUCK

Im going to need some more info to better assist you then.
Of course you have the moto photon..
What kernel are you using? 1.3 should be the only one stable for a daily driver.
Try re-dowloading the rom from Jokersax.com and do a complete hard reset in CWM recovery.
Please verify you are using the jokersax recovery v3 NOT V4 .. v4 has a known issue when flashing gapps.
Try to do the hard reset 2x before doing any flashing. Hard reset all, clear the devlik cash as well 2x to avoid any issues.
At this point, going into mounts and storage you might want to go ahead and mount and format ALL the storage locations, pull the sd card out so it dosnt recieve a wipe. You may also want to remove your media from the sd card , format and only move back the DCIM picture folder for now.
Once your to that point, install cm10.. do not do anything else.. boot up and test the rom for boot, once you have boot, just go back into recovery and start flashing anything you need. i suggest the latest gapps, the cdma data fix, and mms fix 2 try this.. then re-boot and allow android to upgrade your fixes. once you have booted, go into the settings and choose the advanced-use internal.
Open voice dialer and say open APNS ( once opened it should be BLANK ) i know dont worrie, just hit your menue button and click return to deafault, then re-boot and your data connection, mms and pic mail all should be perfect. Add the sd card in and open gallery. give it time to refresh, mine took almost 2 minutes for pictures to load. If not i would use ( ROM TOOLBOX) or equivilent app that will allow you to browse your directorys with full access to make copys or rename items. Find the storage location and find the sdcard0 and sdcard1.. make a copy of the dcim folder in the sdcard1 that actually has the pictures there, and copy the folder to the other side as well so they are identical.. ICS doesnt look for EMMC anymore and is designed to have the two spaces for memory to support some apps..
Reboot after the copy and try to veiw pictures and music.. Apollo music is my favorite but seems to have some issues working well with google play music as well.. it seems if you run one dont run the other one unless you have closed the process out, I HAD ALOT OF FC issue without doing that each time.. Also use ROM MANAGER to run a fix permissions or do it inside the Recovery mode.
Verifiy some of this information for me and we can get this straightend out.. If you feel that ive helped or resolve the issue let me know!!

Also i forgot to mention to copy the music as well. I would do ALL the copy work from inside the phone not from a computer at this point knowing that the computer does not see the storage spaces correctly, ROM TOOLBOX PRO has given me the best results.. Also try NOT having internal storage selected first and see what shows up if anything. You can also keep the card out and take a picture to see what side your phone uses to view/save the photos and thats the place old pictures need to be as well to be viewed.. I know you might be frustrated at this point but take each step one by one and see what has changed and the results that came from the change.. i didnt do ANY build prop edits, any changes to the rom and have EVERYTHING running on my mypho.. (even videocam records for me on 3rd part app and mapping) PM me if you need links to downloads and if im in good coverage i can let you pull from my drop box privately if needed.. GOOD LUCK

[Q] Update to JB lost USB mass-storage

Hi, I'm on the standard HTC software, so no rooting, no custom ROMs, etc.
In the most recent update (a few weeks ago), the device was taken from (I think) Android 4.0.4 to 4.1.2, so from ICS to JB. However, in doing that, the ability to access the SD card via USB mass-storage seems to have vanished and has been replaced with MTP. This means that I can no longer access the filesystem on the SD card via USB, which I do with Picasa, DoubleTwist, as well as the audio system in my car.
HTC tell me to install the (rather useless and bloated) HTC Sync Manager, but this doesn't give me what I need. They say there is no way to go BACK to the previous version of the OS.
So, my wise friends, I'm asking if anyone has any idea as to how to solve this problem and again get back to being able to see the SD card as a USB mass-storage device.
Many thanks for your help.

Possibly that can work, but it's not going to help me in the car! I need the SD card filesystem to be visible, as it was before.
The thing is, that HTC removed UMS completely on JB in favor of MTP. MTP allows you to connect your device to a PC without the need to unmount before removing as it uses push / pull commands directly. So if your device in the car supports MTP, you are good to go. Otherwise, you can try to connect it via 3,5 mm audio clinch cable if your car radio has an auxialiary port for that.
well, theoretically you CAN go back to ICS, but you have to unlock your bootloader (might be a problem when it comes to warranty), flash a custom-recovery (for jellybean hboot 1.25) and flash a custom- or stock-rom based on ics.
i recommend ckpv5's myONEdx RC4.0 FX+, imho its the best and most bug-free ics custom-rom.
