I've seen many roms uploaded here but do not know if they would work on my X10.
I have rooted it. Busybox and Xrecovery installed..
Firmware version : 2.1 update 1
baseband version : 2.0.46
Kernal version : 2.6.29
Build number : 2.0.A.504
I'm new to all of this so any help would be appreciated
I wanted to install this.. would it work on mine?

I think that ROM requires the 2.0.2.A.0.24 build number. You can flash the build firmware using flashtool. And then you can install this ROM with xRecovery I believe.
I've heard you can lose your 3g conenction, is this true? I'm on o2 in the UK.. does this matter?
You can lose your signals if you don't flash the correct baseband I believe.
ALWAYS make a backup of your original ROM before installing a new one, so that if any problem occurs or if youre unsatisfied with the ROM, you can revert back to the old one.

EDIT!!::::
Ok so First of my x10 mini pro was default and its model was U20a, its Build was 2.0.A.0.504 and the baseband was 06...
I then tried bits and peices of things and finally managed to change the model to U20i and have the build change to 2.1.1.A.06 and have the same baseband by using a custom downloaded backup file through xrec...
i couldnt figure out how to get the baseband to XXXXXXX015 so i tested my luck on the flasher that was here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10879507#post10879507
So after a few tries it works

Ok So.
Here is the story, i am trying to get my x10 Mini Pro to run this here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051678
It is the ROM called: [ROM] Cyanogen Froyo - CM6 latest sources (Version 2.1) fast and stable + Dual Touch
Ok so i know i need to get my baseband to end with 015 so here is my information.
Model Number: U20a
Firmware Version: 2.1-update1
Baseband version: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404006
Kernel Version: 2.6.29 [email protected] #1
Build Number: 2.0.A.0.504
So i tried using SEUS to get my version to be 2.1.1.A.06 so my baseband would be xxxxx015
BUT when i tried updating it said that there is no available updates and that my x10 mini pro is up to date...
Also i live in Queensland in Australia...
---
So how do i manage to get the ROM to run for me if i can not update/flash to that baseband/build... i have tried to follow this here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1040149
But i can not get the flasher to be downloaded, it seems the link is broken of the download has been removed...
If anyone could give me something to work with here, even just ideas and or tips i would be happy, atm i am testing to restore using a 2.1.1.A.06 Build Version Backup... Its working so far, havent rebooted yet...
Ok i had that backup finish, and i am at 2.1.1.A.06 now but my baseband is still the same... *beep* (cursing under breath xD)
Cant find a damn sure fire way to flash the correct baseband... maybe i can find a way for a U20i model version since the previous backup which used the 2.1.1.A.06 build....
Going on a search to see if its easier to flash the 015 baseband
Ok cant seem to find anyway to get the correct baseband version flashed over my model is now U20i, the Build is 2.1.1.A.06 but the baseband is still Baseband version: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404006
I guess that restoring from a restore save wont change the baseband version maybe... but im not sure... my default is stil u20a and is still 2.0.A.0.504
I hate not knowing what to do lolxD
So I have not had any luck in figuring out what to do about my baseband problem but i was playing around with the restore from the custom backup and i found 2.1.1.A.06 to be faster and more responsive than 2.0.A.0.504...
Just about to fix up a personal save of that custom so i have my default and the custom.
Now to wait for someone to help... All i need is to be able to get the Baseband version:M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015 onto my x10 mini pro, instead of its M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404006...
So for you guys again, my baseband is M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404006 for my 2.0.A.0.504 backup and is also M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404006 for the new 2.1.1.A.06 custom backup. For the 2.0.A.0.504 which is my default build number for my default backup, the Model is U20a...
For my custom the Model is shown as U20i.
I have a U20i_2.1.1.A.06_Baseband etc etc file from someone on xda which is as a 7z file and i have no clue what to do now... help plz.......
X10 Mini Pro 2.1 incl. Flashtool
or
[FLASHTOOL GUIDE] HOW TO for n00bies
Ok so i now i have the rom running fine i think on my x10 which was default with the settings firstly stated, i then used a custom back up of 2.1.1.A.06 which gave my phone the U20i model and the needed 2.1.1.A.06 Build
i then found that the baseband could not be implimented properly through a backup and i therefore needed to flash it, my first many attempts failed greatly and i had no clue i then used this guide here and the latest version of the flasher http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10879507#post10879507
i did not think it would work and to my surprise it did
Ok So far i have found that since i am on 3G i have no way to actually utilize the PHONE aspect of it, and i have also had something go wrong with the draw dock type thing... it wont bring up all of the apps now...
so its not that big of a deal, so atm its good, i have the u20i and the correct build and baseband so yay
but anyway, i still have my default backed up, i have the previous version backed up and the CM6 ROM version so i think that this is all good
although i wish i could get a nice rom which is 3G compatible, and oh oh oh! my cousin can get 4G speeds and still cant get 3G xD
Ok so after some tinkering and some searching and ****, i have found that the baseband is now 015 for all my backups... i will have to find baseband and kernel to flash to my device that will return it to 06
If i had the time to learn how i would see about an all in 1 sort of program which holds all basebands and its coupled builds... it would also root and instal xrecovery etc as other options and that will be about all xD but meh xD

How did you get to U20i? I actually have to do the opposite! Can you guide me through going from U20i to U20a??? I have read so much my brain is beginning to melt but I'm just not getting anywhere! :crying:
I need something in U20a to enable options in the baseband so it will work in Canada. I bought the stupid thing on eBay and didn't realize there were 2 versions of this phone.
To all the developers and members of XDA,
I bought an X10mini and found out that the firmware version is 2.1.1.A.0.16 , can i flash it to MiniCM6 2.2 ROM ? the baseband is M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015 but the firmware is not 2.1.1.A.0.6..
I tried to to reinstall the ROM using PC companion and the version that i get is still 0.16 and not 0.6 .
I wonder if anyone here have the version same as mine and can i flash it to custom ROM ? i search throughout the treads and did not found any 2.1.1.A.0.16 available, is this the latest version or because the version is differ because of countries?
Any helps will be well-appreciated, thanks !
This is because you have the 2011 X10 Mini. Everything should work normally.
You have a previous FW, if you want to flash without fear, flash to the new FW and them flash it to MiniCM6 2.2 ROM.
You can use WotanClient, sign in the site of the program, it is free, and very easy flash with this program, and you can downgrade or upgrade your phone.
ok, Thank you for the information !
the important things are baseband and kernel, because when you upgrade to 2.2 or 2.3 the stock firmware will be replaced.
but before flashing with any rom kindly make a backup
Hi,
I got my X10 a few days ago and loving it. I'm used to flashing and custom firmwares as have owned a HTC Magic and also a ZTE Blade, but it seems it works slightly differently for the X10 (unless i am confused). So my questions are below:
1) If my phone and install xrecovery, when Sony releases the 2.3 update will it prevent me from updating?
2) Does anyone who has rooted and installing custom firmware even plan on using the sony software to update to 2.3? I assume that people will just rip the firmware and upload it here to install?
3) I am confused about the baseband, on the previous 2 phones i have installed custom firmwares it seems the firmware and the baseband are totally different entities, but it seems that when you flash some firmwares (i.e. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=942477) it flashes the baseband as well. Am i correct?
4) If the baseband flash was to fail, would that result in a brick?
Now I have read some guides and started thinking about installing custom firmwares. I want to stay on the official firmware's but want stuff like JIT etc... Can someone just check though the steps below to see if I have it planned
My current (stock and unrooted) phone is:
Kernel version: 2.6.29 ([email protected] #1)
Model number: X10i
Android version (assume this is same as Firmware version): 2.1-update1
Baseband version: 2.1.54
Build number: 2.1.A.0.435
So I was planning on performing the following steps:
1) Root using SuperOneClick (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906248) It says it is compatible with 2.1.A.0.43
2) Download BUSYBOX from market and install
3) Download xRecovery from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=859571 and install using Automatic Installation
4) Download 2.1.A.0.435 Global Generic ROM (from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936462)
However I am now confused on what to do with that rom. I have searched and tried to understand the last few days on where to use Flash tools, but I can't seem to understand? I am just used to booting into recovery and wiping cache etc.. and flashing the firmware, but can't seem to understand the guides.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Most of what you want to do can be done with the newest beta flashtool which can root, optimize, install busybox, superuser, xrecovery, and even has a build.prop editor as well as being able to backup the apps and uninstall/install apks.
I think that you are correct that once a GB release is made available for each major geographical area it will end up here and installable via flashtool.
BB are exactly as you say. SE seems to release a lot of them to accommodate different carriers requests for variations in sms, mms messages as well as HSDPA or 3G only. Most of the firmwares here include a bb that was released with the it. Mismatched bb to firmware is a issue, causing problems and some combos seem possibly fatal but generally speaking its hard to kill the X10 unless the battery dies during flash or the usb port is loose.

If you go into 'settings' then 'about phone' you will see the phones baseband version. If it ends in 15 it is most likely one of the two firmwares you mention. If you try to install a rom dependant on these firmwares and you don't have it you will temporarily brick your phone. (Requiring the use of the Sony Ericcson Update Service to hopefully restore the phone to working order).
It is possible your phone has the firmware already installed but you need to check! Some network providers have been very slow at releasing them. If you manage to find the firmware on the web (make sure it is the correct language and layout for your locale - AND the correct phone) then you need to use a flashing utility to install it, I use 'flashtool' as it can root the phone and install xrecovery, but you must be sure you read the documentation and follow the proceedure.
Once you have xrecovery and the phone is rooted the magic can begin..
Be careful. Its very easy to render your phone bricked (as in the phone is as useful as a brick!). No one here can take responsibility for the advice given or your actions.

KERNAL VERSION 2.6.29 [email protected]#1
MOD VERSION FROYO MINICM/CMV6 HYBRID BY SLADE87 AND OWAIN 94
BUILD NUMBER V5.01 FINAL RELEASE
SO CAN I INSTALL SONYBREAD WHICH requires 2.1.1.A.0.6 or 2.1.1.C.0.0 SE firmware
so do i have it????
Not anymore, but if you do Factory reset, yes you have
no it will not cuz the factory ROM is not exsist
In my understanding the firmware doesn't change when you install a custom rom and (to me) they are two different entities. So yes, in my view you should be able to flash sonybread but I haven't used it myself but I have other gingerbread ports without a problem
Once your on the correct baseband you can change between roms without having to flash via the pc/flashtool.
If you get into bootloops then you can try restoring an xrecovery/cwm recovery or failing that reflashing with seus/flashtool.
