Is there a Universal SIM that will unlock the Xperia X10?
Look up on google for the link www.fastgsm.com. That website will unlock the phone for you. If thats what ur asking. Its like $20 to do it i think.

Hi I have just got an X10 and it is locked I believe and it is running the first android 1.6 it has never been updated or anything.
I would like to know how I can update it to 2.1 froyo and also if there is a way to unlock the phone my self.
I have had experience with the htc desire but not with the X10.
Thanks for any help or info

No offense mate but just read the forum and use search.
You have experience with android so just use one if the 2.1 threads.

I did look around the forum but I don't know how to usedate to 2.1 from 1.6 I seem to have found out that I need to pay to get phone unlocked.
If someone can point me to a thread that explains how I update that would be great.
Thanks

Download pc companion for sony ericsson and/or SEUS to see if you can upgrade it there. If it says something like you already have an updated version, u can either wait or flash it to 2.1: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=825201
Firmware update and unlock is two different things.
You don't get your device unlocked by updating the firmware.
I know them are two different things mate I have rooted my phone with a one click root thing from the market I want to update to 2.1 which I am going to look into now.
But I wondered if there was a free way I could do it myself.
Thanks

I have a Motorola Atrix from Orange UK. I unlocked the SIM to use it in India, Unlocked the BootLoader and flashed CM7. Now I want to go back to original Motorola ROM. Is it possible, if yes, HOW? Kindly post other links of this procedure if anybody knows about some way to do it.

Look in the stickies section of Atrix development forum. And find the sbf for unlocked bootloader. Or if u just want the blur UI try the Aura Rom. It has a lot of mods but the theme is basically stock.

You will never get brick by flashing/restoring through recovery.

hey, I think i have the same problem, i have an atrix with cyanogenmod-7-12112011-nightly-olympus, Android version 2.3.7
And i would like to know if its posible to get the original settings if I back up another atrix from the same carrier (telcel - MExico), so i can get rid of the cyanogen and i can have it with factory settings.
If its posible, can anyone help me and tell me how to do it?

Hi, I came from the Motorola bravo and now I have the x10a. I noticed things are a lot different here from there. I want to install a custom Rom but keep my bootloader locked. Is that possible? And also what Rom would you recommend for stability and speed? How do you overlook on the stock Rom? Sorry for all the questions, xperia is so much different from Motorola so I want to make sure my phone doesnt get bricked.

Hello and welcome to x10 xda. Yes, you can flash locked bootloader ROMs as long as you updated latest 2.3.3official GB from sony pc companion, to get compatible baseband for most roms. Then, get your 2.3.3 rooted and installed xrecovery. Last is, download you desired ROM.zip and updates. Remember visit their thread and follow instruction properly.
If you are newcomer for rooting x10/flashing, you may visit my signature link for pdf guides. Although older version, but more stable and reliable and higher success to failure ratio.
For recommending awesome and smooth Roms for locked bootloader, try donutHD 2.2.8jelly bean. Its the best now for locked and unlocked bootloader. I got link too in my signature.
All the best
Whitefang
Thank you for your help. You are very much appreciated

Hey, I recommend you to use any stock based rom you like, they are very different.
As for speed there are kernel's for locked BL, I'v used doomkernel v6.
Also i just unlocked my BL yesterday and its like a new phone. really recommended. (Im on FXP129 CM7 )

I used flash tool, upgraded the phone to 2.3, rooted it, installed 0.3 recovery, unlocked the bootloader, and finally I installed miui 2.3.7. All of it was done with flashtool

It is quite easy once you have done it a couple of times. I used to flash my x10 on a daily basis. Sometimes 3 or 4 times a day because I was bored or several ROM updates came at once lol

can't unlock bootloader running 2.3.5, which prevents you from flashing any "unlocked" rom.. ie jb,ics, or any other rom not based on 235
