[Q] Why Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10i? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi guys, right now I'm using a HD2 w/Android on it ... And the battery sucks and I get no audio notification while charging, so I decided to change to either the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 or the HTC Google Nexus One... I'm on T-mobile T-Zones/Web2go
Why Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10i?
Can I get Gingerbread on the XPERIA X10i?

I'd get the nexus one actually.. There is no multitouch on the x10 and the only updates past 2.1 are custom roms...
The nexus one will stay current with updates and will have full functionality instead of a locked bootloader that hinders the phone like the x10..

X10 has multitouch/dualtouch...

Dualtouch yes, multitouch no... hence why i wrote no multitouch
And the dual touch is pretty buggy.

dual touch on mine works fine.. no problems at all... X10 looks nice, and UI is better looking than std Android..
In the end it comes down to looks vs raw power

any more info

Do a dual touch test and try crossing axis... It's the same for everyone.

What do u recommend if need ATT 3g?

Doesn't N1 also have Dualtouch only?
N1 if you want to flash your device regularly
X10 for a beautiful device with stable software

Yes I'm aware of the cross axis ' issue' never caused me a problem though

So Nexus One, is the move!

The x10 doesn't cost that much and the xda devs are making it upgradeable

the nexus one will have the latest android software available. whereas the x10 will be stuck on the older version of android

Exactly!, its a real achievement from SE that they have listened to the public and done something about it
I wish we could find out if they have plans to update to 2.2 as well!
Just knowing that would be a relief
Great news, looking forward to this.
Yet I fear that Sony did not release the multitouch.

Sorry for being a skeptic but where did SE mention in that report the E10 or U10 will get multi touch? I see lots about the X10 but nowhere does it mention anything at all about the mini/pro let alone the X8 getting multi touch at any point.. however as a positive point we know the mini/pro digitizer does actually support multi touch (its the same hardware as used in the Microsoft Kin 2 which has pinch to zoom etc) so in theory it should be easy.. thats not to say SE will do it and I don't think there are enough DEV's interested in the mini range to hack it themselves.. but lets wait until the new range of phones comes out (the mini replacement looks amazing with a 1ghz processor and the X8 screen..) perhaps we will see multi touch but not until then I'm afraid..

back to square 1 waiting for the hero which will save us from the evil singletouch drivers
Man, the stupid thing is that our devices are (if im not wrong) capable of MT >,<
mini up to 2 fingers
mini pro up to 10 fingers !!!!
however SE made an contract with apple so we wont get multitouch,
at least not officialy

Do you think there will be official 2.3 for X10 ?

What do you think, will there ever be official 2.3 for X10 ?
I think they havend made any 2.2, but if they're making an 2.3 for ARC and other new SE phones, they might also make an update for x10.
Your opinion ?
SE is done supporting the X10.
What would be your incentive to drop another $600 USD on an Arc if they gave 2.3 to X10 owners?
We won't even see 2.2, officially.
This is the one thing I hate about android.

htc is doing it with the desire, samsung is doing it with galaxy s....
The worst part is if you consider that this phone came out on 1.6 when everyone else was on 2.1, technically we didn't get any update, all they did was get us to where we should have been initially and drop us...
no.
Sony only promised us 2.1

Well stated but HTC and Samsung actually update their devices and they have a working life cycle of more than eight months.
Sony Ericsson launches an outdated OS, updates it to what it should have been at release, like you said, and then abandons ship so you can buy a new device.

that's what I was saying when I said " htc is doing it with desire, samsung is doing it with galaxy s"
They are older than x10, they have released new models, yet they are both getting 2.3....
They will never release 2.3. but we have enough realy good devs. They will. J's 2.3.3 CM7 is pretty good (v10 2 days without wlod and great performance. So who carrs about SE?

maybe, just maybe only when they've reached the sales qouta for their new xperia arc... if not, they will only spoilt the market... even by then, they may not release it, they cannot be bothered with it, as there will be another new phone and the xperia arc, will falls into the same predicament as the X10... this vicious cycle will go on and on for a long long time...
at least the other brands will keep producing the updates.. i will not hold my hope too high for Sony Ericssion, as this is not the 1st time they have done this and i'm sure that they will do it again...
i've paid quite a high price to learn from it and it's a lesson learned...
I will not buy another SE because they don't support there customers. If HTC and Samsung can do it, SE should. Although the build quality of my X10 is pretty awesome.
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
no. I absolutely don't believe that sonyericsson will deliver official 2.3 ROM for X10.
I remember that someone from SE has announced this news.
ok mates!
I think sony's phone mechanics and developers are out of their mind cause they built SE x10i which is okay but later produced more and more xperias...
they builted all the xperias with about same specs and just put the old xperia behind like the x10i. Now buying a new xperia will be a big decision from now on not only xperia but also other sony ericssion phones!
what bad will come to us if they don't support customers later they will loose profits!
THERE IS NOT MUCH BLOODY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SPECS! SO I mean wtf and why? why would sony just say "BY BY xperia x10i and later 2010 phones u were a good phone now mommy and daddy needs some time alone to make profit"
~~~not much bloody differerence!~~~~ just x10i multitouch is a bug and all same~~~~~~~~~~~~~!

Upgrade to gingerbread in Q2/Q3 removes the 32fps caps?

Hi all, since i heard the new xperia arc has its multitouch and 32fps cap removed, will the gingerbread upgrade come with it too? Will it also have a different kernal to allow wifi tethering? Will we also have like 16M colours?
I hope this would all happen

I don't know about the others but I'm pretty sure we will get the fps unlock. I would be stupid for se to lock it again

who knows? Anyone giving opinion here will be providing that, simply opinion. No one has any idea what the update will provide, as the press releases were very vague. Time will tell, I suppose.

Yep! Agreed!
And if you wanna stay on top of this gingerbread release follow Rikard Skogberg over at the official SE blog. He updates with new posts often, and when more news comes about what the X10 will and will not get with the gingerbread release you'll probably get it there first.
The only 2 things id like to see are 16m colors and 32fps unlocked. Oh, and hopefully they leave the EV control on the stock camera.

gingerbread in Q2/Q3 for X10 was planed not to impact ARC phone sale, given, clearing for X10 phone, without gingerbread, handly will ever clearing up the remining stock X10.
gingerbread already running with ARC, I do not see SE not able to deliever it, in my view, mostly, X10 gingerbread upgrade will end up same spec function with ARC. Also will never unlock bootloader to ensure, no impact to ARC sale business.

that depends if the boot loader gets cracked / sony unlocks the bootloaders
For all I know, I love this phone but all that keeps it down us the sluggy touchscreen due to the 32FPS cap and I hate it.
The colors would be good also.
multitouch was said to be impossible due to the screens structure, but in the update I would hope also that the dualtouch isn't add pathetic as it is now.
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
wifi tethering for sure as we can do that even now with apps like barnacle
and 32 fps cap would most probably removed..
but i am doubtful about 16M colors and unlocked bootloader
I just want root access in the gingerbread update.!
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
The modification on the camera department makes me worry that we will loose the goodies of the camera . But only time can tell what comes in and what goes out.
Hopefully the devs come up with a 2.3 mod so we don't lose the features.

A modified GB kernal would kick ass.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
The kernel for the 2.3.2 update should be 2.6.32pref9,the very same to the present kernel in the new Xperia products....
32fpscaps removal do not have too much hope.....SE will never give them such crisis.If we get it removed,most of us will keep our phone longer....They need people to butly their 3rd gan. Android phones.

Im pretty sure sony will modify the x10 add here in Australia, and I suppose other countries, the x10 is quite popular and common, and I do not think that a lot of people have heard of the Xperia arc yet.
The contract plan area here is almost dominated by there x10 and Iphone.
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
Is there a reason why the X10 comes with the 32 fps cap? Is it for battery life?
Yes,there is a reason.
The reason is that SE think that we will buy their new product by locking our phone

16M colors, 32FPS cap removed and the same speed as the Arc gingerbread and I won't really mind not having rooting access for a while. That's all I want.

buddy who dont wanna move to arc..? lol..
Actually the neo will be better despite a smaller screen. It'll have a front camera and a music player with an equalizer for bass boosting (which I cant live without). Otherwise, it's the
Same phone. Though me personally ill be getting an optimus 3d because when my upgrade will be available, xda will be well equipped for it.
From my X10a running CM 6.1.3 by Wolfbreak and Swype Keyboard
this might imply that we will have an easier root method for our x10s when the 2.3.3 update comes =D

I think that is a bit harsh. OK it may not be a big step forward from the X10 but it is better and is 'only' a mid range phone.

kudos to that too. Sony Ericsson has tried hard to make a good phone. but this year dual core android phones will dominate. With that said, I will still get the Xperia Arc if i can find a good deal.(under $500) Can't complain about the SE interface. =) With that said i'm very excited for the X10 gingerbread release and unlocking the bootloader. Hopefully we can utilize the full potential of the phone.
Well I just love the looks and design of it
Personally I just want to own it!!
And specs of the arc a lil better so I think once there are more devs for the arc then the development will be more progressive than the X10
It will be in my hands in the coming month or two

[Q] Upgrade from x10 to ??

Hey guys, first of all i want to thank all the developers for they help to make my x10 great. I dont know if I am writing on the correct place.. but whatever, i own a white xperia x10 and i want to change my phone and i am between Xperia x10 arc and Nexus S.. I dont know wich one to choose and wich one is better .. Which u think is better and why ? thanks
Id go for the arc, looks al lot better. And with the unlocked bootloader its got a nice future in terms of modding.
I'd agree, the Arc looks a lot better but out of the avaliable ROMs out there rdannar is coming up leaps and bounds.
He's doing a great ROM as part of X10Project that uses 2.3.4 and is based on the Nexus, but it easy to add the Arc filles that are dotted around through here using xrec like I ended up doing.
Arc for sure! And im not just saying that to be a SE fanboy. But if its possible, look at the galaxy s2 as well. Ive been looking at it more closely lately....and its got that "WOW" factor!

Believe me, it will be worth the wait to go with a dual core phone... The cpu in the arc will be outdated very shortly, better to go with a phone with some lasting power
+1 for sg2 although it hasn't got style but it's got substance, it's the opposite for Arc
Yeah im kinnda with you on this one arc as far as the looks go but s2 for its power (dual core nd all of that)
