X10, I love you on paper. But not in ever day situations - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've tried all the roms. 2.2 x10free, 2.3.2 gingerbread, 2.3.1, generic 2.1s.
I had some success with the 2.1 generic. But for the life of me, I have no idea why I can't get good connection to my network in New Zealand. It is a Telecom NZ phone. X10a. I'm yet to find a 1.6 install to take it back to where it once was.
I can't return it to 1.6 in Seus, or PC companion. What to do.. ugh
Sometimes I think I may as well have bought a ipod touch. I essentially have a android 4inch pad.

If you are having 2.1 generic then you should have better performance......anyway if you wants to return back to 1.6...then you can do it by flash tool....go to dev section, from there you can download the 1.6 FW with flash tool. follow the below link...

You can try one thing-
Before flashing 2.1, wipe system data...& after flashing select GSM only in NW selection option. not GSM & WCDMA both.
hope ur prob will be solved...

2.1 Nordic broke my camera?

I flashed my X10a with 2.1 nordic using bin4rys flashtool. Since then, my camera hasn't worked. I get a message saying "Camera Unavailable"
I've tried the following:
-Reflashing 2.1 (twice) (fixed my wifi unable to start issue)
- Reflasing R2BA026 UK (Semi-bricked my phone; it would only vibrate when turned on)
- Reflashed R2BA026 Nordic (Phone boots, camera still doesn't work)
- 'Repair' option in PC Suite (Says unable to download software for your device)
- About to try R1FA014 (for X10a) + SEUS or PC Suite and I'll report back.
Other than camera everything else works on all firmwares. I have a feeling it has something to do with the baseband of the phone, since reflashing 2.1 doesn't bring up the Camera -> phone icon anymore.
I'll keep you guys up to date, but if anyone can think of a way to make sure the phone is in a "virgin" state please let me know.
EDIT: Tried WWE R1FA014 which branded my phone back to Rogers firmware plugged into PC Companion which updated to R2BA020.
On neither firmware did the camera work, so obviously this issue is deeper than that.
I'm sitting at 2.1 Global right now. (Camera doesn't work of course) I hope that I find a way to fix this issue soon since I use the camera quite often.
Thanks
Camera worked the first time since 2.1, then I get the camera not available message. didn't try to go back to 1.6... Hope the camera didn't break...
Hey iv had the same problem iv tried everything but cant get the camera to work,
I think its broken for good as i cannot think of any way to fix it?
If you find a solution please post
i will do the same
Trying to collate the same issue onto one thread, can you post this on thread 825329?

2.1 Update caused WiFi problem, Restore?

I recently updated my X10 Mini Pro to 2.1(O2 UK) and since my WiFi connects to my router and works initially, but after a few mins it will stop downloading data although the WiFi is still connected so in theory it should still work. My wife has the exact same phone, but still running 1.6 and she does not have any WiFi problems, in fact it is much faster than mine when it is working. I have seen this problem posted up here and other forums, but as yet no solutions. What does the update alter to stop the WiFi working properly?
I have tried root, WiFi apps, factory reset(still on 2.1) etc, but it is still the same.
Could I create a backup of my wifes phone(root & xrecovery) then copy this to mine and restore it? Would this return my phone to 1.6 software?
My other option is to flash the generic UK software. Is this reversible? Also does the UK firmware still come loaded with the Nordic keyboard layout?
I'm pretty new to playing with android, but so far I've had a play with adb and root programs so I'm willing to give anything a go.
Any help is much appreciated as I've already spent a bundle using my 3g
FW Version 2.1 Update 1
Kernel 2.6.29 [email protected] #1
Build No. 2.0.A.0.504
Well I flashed it using the UK FW, but it's still causing the same problems. Does this sound like a software issue or a phone issue? It worked fine on 1.6 FW.
My other option is to flash it to 2.0.2.A.0.24 and see if the issue remains, but if it is a phone issue I want to be able to return it.
Could I take a backup from another phone(wifes) and restore this to mine?
I had the same problem with 1.6, then i disappeared upgrading to 2.1, 504, and came back with the 0.24 update.. it sucks :/

[help] Can not connect to network

My X10i is Rooted, has Android 2.2 (from Rodeiro) bandversion 2.1.54 and Kernel 2.6.29 Mod version CyanogenMOD 6.1.1-V03
Now I have the problem that i can not connect/register to a network, i can see all the networks but if i want to connect to 1, it just wont happen.
I tried a restore of an old ROM and the problem remains.
What could be the problem ? is my X10 broken ? Coul this be a radio problem ?
Please help, need my phone...
Coop,
Hello!
Is data across mobile network enabled in the phone settings?? Try turning on airplane mode for a minute, then turn it off, brings my network back!!
Best regards,
Chris
That does not seem to help.
I can see all the carriers, but if i want to connect to 1 it wont happen, this message i get :
Registering on Network.
I keep hanging on here, maybe my X10 is broken ?
When did this start?? Any changes to the phone before this happened??
Turn it off and pull the battery for about 5 minutes???

NO more 3g no matter what i do. after 2.3.3 upgrade

I was looking to upgrade my x10 to the actual version of x10. the 2.3.3 version it was not out in my country, so i got the worldwide version (the .ftf file). i flashed it with flashtool. it worked perfectly, but the 3g wont turn on no matter what i do, im with rogers, i choose 3g-rogers. it connects, my data is on, roaming is on, but it just doesnt turn on, doesnt show in the statu/notification bar, that it is on like it did before. so i used the pc companion and put the 2.1 back in, it still has the same problem, i put the latest wolf rom, 2.3, and it dont work, no matter which rom I choose. Please help me, give me any suggestions, i need 3g for my work, etc. thanks!
Check your apn settings, if they are not present then you'll have to enter them manually. Use Google or search the forms here for the proper Rogers apn settings.

Or try the Sony Ericsson tab from the settings menu, you can download your courier's apn settings there.

I had the same problem, flashing to a stock 2.3.3 ROM and then the data connexion wouldn't work. What I did was to install Wolfbreak's TW Custom ROM then immediately applying a custom kernel patch. It worked fine from there.
I don't know if this will help at all but i had the same problem a month ago. what was causing my problem is that my limit of my package was over and i did not have any more credit on my phone (prepaid contract). so 3G would not connect unless i had credits (That's what my carrier told me). so i put credit on my phone but 3G still would not connect. it was kind of "stuck" because my credit was out. so i kept my credit and flashed a new rom (WB's rom). i put the APN manually and my problem was fixed.
So my problem was caused by my credit limitation. once i let my phone without credit 3G would not connect again unless i put credit and reflash the rom again... Crazy huh?
Every case is specific, however i hope it helps you in any way...

You need to set up your wireless apn go to menu/settings/sony ericsson/settings download then wait a few you will see it flash on then go to back button/wireless & networks/mobile networks/network mode/gsm/wcdma preferred (click it)/access point name there should be two, one wireless/one mmsc. if for some reason you have three make sure that the top one (the house icon 3g) is checked or you will be roaming
And always remember to backup your Settings an APNs,and anything else you need to keep.
Although some of these are free it is always the best to get the pro/key of the apps for more functions and to support the Developers.

Is the phone an x10i or x10a? It could be a radio problem, like mine in which I have an x10a but I'm on T-Mobile which only supports EU bands of the x10i.

[Q] Why Can't I Connect To Mobile Network ?

I turned my phone on and had no service, it had been working fine on WB's
V 4.0 GB, stock kernel.
My questions are:
1: Has my X10 somehow lost some files needed for network communication? And if so, what files are they, and how can I replace them?
2: Does anyone know how to check to see if the radio is operable, or not.
My notifacation bar shows an X over grey bars. I have downloaded settings for APN via wifi.
I have downgraded to 2.1 and back to 4.0 and to 6.0, no change. Also flashed kernel again.
I keep thinking it's a software issue, the phone has always worked flawlessly and it's never been dropped, wet, or mistreated in any way.
Everthing else works fine.
I could use some help
Thanks
did u check whether the baseband is ryt ??
Yes... 2.1.71
Thanks
