[Q] restore to factory settings is it safe ? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi i'm sending off my x10 for repair tomorrow (usb port) and i have xrecovery installed allong with busy box will restoring factory setting through the phone uninstall xrecovery. as i want to get rid off all traces. also does anyone knows how the warranty works on the x10 as i had it repaired by vodafone and im not sure if they voided the warranty, this time im sending it to se (flashed uk generic) i cant see any warranty sticker.
thanks

Factory reset just resets/cleans data... so busybox/superuser/xrecovery will not be removed!!!
If u can use flashtool then flash to a firmware of ur region and don't root after that...
sent from FreeX10_beta4+CM6 settings

Or you can use SEUS to do a repair and put your phone back to it's "factory state"

i cant use seus or flashtool as the usb port is broken i have root explorer installed anyway i can do it using that

ok good...
provide the following details:
1] which model of X10 do u have? X10 (came pre-installed with 1.6) or X10HD (came pre-installed with 2.1)?
2] X10i or X10a?
3] was ur phone operator-branded (Rogers/etc) or unlocked?
4] wht is the current baseband on ur phone?
me n rendeiro2005 are working on something specifically for such cases... (users who are having broken USB connectors and are unable to use flashtool)... our work is still in progress... but we should be completed soon...

This is the best news ever, it was branded x10i Vodafone UK it came with 1.6. im currently running UK generic current baseband 2.0.46 which I flashed ages ago to get the 2.1 update. I wont send it off tomorrow in case se get a bit miffed with all the stuff installed I wish you best of luck with your project it will be a god send for most users

so u have a X10 (not X10HD)...
since ur BB is 2.0.46 i am guessing u have the FW 2.0.A.0.504 ?
have u used the:
Generic version 2.1update1 build 2.0.A.0.504 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746 ?

Yes thats correct fw but I used the build prop method to debrand.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

em ok... if u can upload the original build.prop file i can try to include it in the project we are working on... so u will have a branded rom...

Which build prop as I only have the one im running UK debranded or I could change it using root explorer and upload that
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

upload the one which u want when u finally send the phone for repairs in ur region...

Right so Vodafone is the one I want tomorrow when I get access to my pc ill upload it
Thanks again

btw the project is not yet complete... so it might take some time for it to work... also there is no guarantee that it will work 100%... we are trying to make it as clean as possible based on whtever knowledge we have...

Yeah sound I understand its a work in progress.

As u might know se-****-us has lock a new firmware..so I wont reflash my phone to a new software..and I'll lost root access if I do that..what should I do mate..copy ur build.prop then using root explorer than update with seus?
Sent from my U20i using XDA App
if u think ur fimrware is broken best way is to flash to fresh one and as we are having rooted update it is better to go with properly working firmware
use binarys guide to flash to any of the given firmwares (i am having UK one but u can flash to any one as the updated one is Nordic) and then use latest update to flash new rooted firmware.it is just simple 10 mis procedure to flash a firmware nothing to worry if u follow proper steps http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=825664
ask if u having any doubts

[Q] Dual Touch update without connecting to PC

Hi all, I can't connect my Xperia x10 to my computer to connect to SEUS or even apply the patch for dual touch. Is there a way to do it from memory card. Please go easy I'm a bit dim when it comes to all this stuff. So step by step instructions would be much appriciated
I think that isn't possible.

it never works...
if your phone is rooted you can do it with xrecovery
You can only apply dualtouch with USB or OTA.
It is not possible via xRecovery sorry.

Ota never tells me when an update is available but when I plug it into seus then low and behold an update exists! Still on stock android but rooted until a stable 2.2 or even 2.3 becomes available with everything working.e.g camera and camcorder.thanks for all the help.looks like an ebay order for a data cable is needed.

@adamwilliams. I must be missing something. How do you charge your phone if you don't have a data cable?

can you explain? I am very new to these kind of techie things.
Just use sony ericsson PC companions repair function. Its like having your phone new again.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
You sure that'll work? At the end of the day I get an error when SEUS/PC Companion finished the download and wanted to install.
So what I do is use the Global Generic 2.1.A.0.435 Firmware and flash it using FlashTool 0.2.6. I think that should make it official rite?

I tried to backup an restore on another phone but it didn't work, the phone didn't work properly.
