I experienced some problems due to Task Manager.
I added apps to auto end list, so when screen was off I had to re-enter the preffered input method/live wallpaper etc.
Anw, the main problem is how to remove the service provider logo from the curtain, cos I can't see any notifications.
(see picture!!)
Any help appreciated!
Thanx!!
installing GingerBlur will remove the carrier logo but will not push it down to the notifications window. I did the same because Vodafone AU was becoming a similar annoyance
thanx, but i dont want to install motoblur!
any other solutions?
all other problems sovled!
I was just adding to auto end list all programs via task manager, to have less battery consumption!

you wont be able to remove the carrier name from the bar without rooting/deodexing the phone, so you can either
root then deodex then install a No ATT bar from the development section (can't remember the link though)
- OR -
Root then install CWM (oldest available version) then install gingerblur.
sorry :/

MOD EDIT: PLEASE POST ALL ISSUES RELATED TO ROOT IN THIS THREAD. DEVS PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS THREAD FOR ISSUES AND SUGGESTIONS.
I shall compile a list of problems (possible problems) that people may have when rooting or after root.
Problem: Removed stock apps, still listed in Settings > manage apps
Solution: Delete /data/system/packages.xml, reboot. The phone will repopulate and wala its gone.
Problem: No 3G
Solution: Go to Settings > Wireless controls > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names. Press the left button on the X10 and click on New APN.
Problem: Phonebook doesn't work or F/Cs
Solution: Keep Timescape installed till we get custom roms. Phonebook is linked to Timescape.

Are people who are having issues restoring previous settings after rooting their phones?
This may cause random issues so its best not to restore previous settings, restoring contacts, call logs and sms are acceptable.
I would not suggest restoring old settings on a fresh root.

Problem: Headphones not working
Solution: For X10a users, don't use Step4 and 5 of rooting process
As biktor_gj mentioned:
P.S.: Mediascape is NOT required to correct audio routing between speaker & headphones. This problem was caused by differences on the kernel module that controls audio routing and the newer baseband. With last root version you shouldn't have any problems using Android's original Music app.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Step4 and 5 replaces the the baseband and the baseband for X10a is older than the rooted baseband. So for now just do Step1 - 3 until SE releases a new ROM for X10a
I shall add more later, but these I think are the problems that most people are having.
were all the drivers installed properly? check the device manager for any unknown devices after you plugged your X10. if you haven't installed seus please do so. also make sure you use the first usb you plugged the X10 in flash mode. otherwise search registry again for the DeviceID. if you plugged the X10 in flash mode to more than one usb ports, you may have more than one entries in the registry for the DeviceID
Not sure what I did but its working now.. on step 2 halfway done
Im having issues with step4.. it says no device found..
nvm.. got it working now

Issues after Root. PLEASE DO NOT POST ISSUES ON THE ROOT THREAD
So here are some issues i now have after rooting,
Internet (WiFi or 2G/3G) So slow it is painful yet Market runs fine.
SD/apps is empty(i would like Mediascape back)?
superuser.apk app just displays a black screen (is this right)
cant assign walpapers as Mediascape was used to assign them.
hey do you have to debrand first before you root and can someone post instructions to root Xperia X10a
Rogers Xperia X10-Stock
For me all apps are in "/sdcard/apps/" but I can't install "Mediascape" (Quadrapop installed/uninstalled successfully) via Astro (maybe it's normal) or by copying "mediascape.apk" and "mediascape.odex" files to "/system/app" (Astro/Better Terminal Emulator).
I haven't issues with Wifi.
hoafter root we loose mediascape, can we install it again or is there an media software as an alternative? can i install mediascape again?
or is there an alternative as media image vieafter root we loose mediascape, can we install it again or is there an media software as an alternative?er
1) my keyboard is gone.
I only have HTC IME Mod installed, and it's not working
2) I have a few old O2 shortcuts in the app list but they seem to have been removed and when I click on them it force closes.
Solved issue 1 by installing another keyboard (I chose slideIT)
my wifi isn't working at all idk what the problem is, but my 3g is working perfectly on my X10A
I'm using an X10a from Rogers and rooted using the first post method and third post's X10a files. My WiFi is working perfectly and so is everything else.
Okay guys, my keyboard was gone at first but I fixed that by reinstalling the keyboard. Now however, I can't change my caller id. I had it set to private before I rooted and now I can't set it back to my original caller id. The setting is missing for me. You know how you go to settings and then call settings, I don't have an option to show my caller id. The only thing there is "Network service setting" and "Network Operators" Is anyone else having the same problem as me too?
Root is done ..
Now my phone restarts each time I plug it into the USB!!
Seems that all the input methods are gone.
I had Swype installed, but it wasn't working, so I removed it thinking I could re-install it again. But when I removed to I discovered that there are no other input methods on phone anymore! Help please
reinstall another input method..
thats what I did.
The rooting process seems to have installed the htc keyboard. Go to locale and text in your settings and enable it.
I had to reinstall swype as well, but it's working great now.

In this thread I would like to gather usually asked question. Feel freely to add more. And I will add more too. Any suggestion or correction welcome. Here we go.
Q: I want to flash my phone to other ROM. What should I do?
A: You could refer to this post about X10 Flash Tool by Bin4ry and list of the ROM from here by jerpelea
Q: I want to flash my phone but don't want to loose my apps and settings
A: Just don't include userdata.sin when flash. Thanks to MarylandCookie
Q: I restore my contacts using stock Backup and Restore Apps but I can't see my contacts in the phonebook.
A: The apps restore the contacts under your Google accounts. You could show your Google contacts by Clicking three people icon at the top left of your phonebook and enable it from there.
You should check about Social Phonebook too.
Q: My market keep crashing when download apps. What should I do?
A: Go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> Find your market apps -> Clear cache (if any) -> Uninstall updates
Q: I want to remove ads from apps. What should I do?
A: IMO, just let it be. That's what make so many android apps free.
Q: I need to root my X10. What should I do?
A: Use z4root. Refer to this post by MarylandCookie for detail
Q: I couldn't find Assisted GPS option. Where is it?
A: Settings-> Location and Security -> Use wireless networks
Q: Where is the Auto Brightness?
A: Brightness except 0 and 100 IS auto brightness just work different way. Or you could try using Spare Part apps from the market
Q: I want a longer battery life what should I do?
A: 1. Turn off GPS : Settings-> Location and Security -> Uncheck Use GPS Satellites
2. Turn off Wireless Networks : Settings-> Location and Security -> Uncheck Use Wireless Networks
3. Use home launcher replacement such as ADW Launcher by anderwerb, Launcher Pro, HelixLauncher, etc
4. Make your phone in airplane mode after 23:00. You could automated doing this by using Timerrific apps
5. Turn off your Autosync : Settings-> Accounts & sync -> Uncheck Auto-sync
6. Turn off/make a longer interval of your update. Such as Facebook, Twitter, etc. Usually there is an option for that inside the apps itself
7. DO NOT Use AUTO Killer apps. Use a MANUAL Task Manager. Kill the apps manually when you feel want to do it. Do not need to do it automatically or often though
8. If you have unstable 3G networks, change your phone to GSM Only : Settings -> Wireless and network -> Mobile Network -> Network Mode -> Choose GSM only. Switch to 3G network/WCDMA when you need it and don't forget to switch back, because unstable signal could drain your battery
Q: I want to optimize my X10. What should I do?
A: 1. You could applied Jit. You could find it from here by ttxdragon or here by jerpelea
(I just enable Jit and manually delete app I don't want. Well I keep Timescape and MediaScape ^_^ )
2. In my observation, no need to change the Heap Size, because 24 is the best value fit for our X10. Otherwise is just a placebo effect. Even I experience have to click little apps more than one to run it when I'm in 32.
Q: I don't what apps are safe to delete. What should I do?
A: You could try to see the list here by exekias
Q: I wrongfully deleted my system app. What should I do?
A: You surelly want to try to install it again from here by XperiaX10iUser
Q: I cannot receive SMS when there is Low on Space notification
A: Probably Solution : Use Titanium Backup and choose Clean Dalvik Cache. Haven't have time to try it yet.
Q: I want 3D Gallery. What should I do?
A: Use ADW Launcher or Launcher Pro (I only tried those launcher) and add Custom Shortcut, Choose Activity, and you will Find Gallery from the list. That's is your 3D Gallery
Q: I want hidden Music app. What Should I do?
A: Use the same method as above only choose Music this time. IMO it's not that great, as matter of fact I deleted the "hidden" Music app. ^_^
Q: I'm bored with the look of my phone. What you need is theme.
A: 1. Read _calum_ theme reference
2. XperiaX10iUser's theme
3. Theme from dk2000zx
4. Elemental theme from Mr_Element
5. Or you could just go to this section. There are plenty of them. ^^
Q: I want 2.2 for my X10.
A: There is no official announcement about it.
Q: I still want 2.2 for my X10.
A: Well you could just try it from this thread
Q: Ouch I forgot to bring my cable. My cable is missing. My cable is broken. I need to access my phone using ADB. What should I do?

Download the app Appzorter from the market and shuffle your apps alphabeticly.
This is the downside with stock TouchWiz launcher. You could get http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883
which does sort apps, but it's a little buggy sometimes.
Or use a 3rd party launcher (I use GOLauncher EX atm, which is really nice and fast.)
ok guys i find the solution!!! i made again one format and it work, all are ok now!!!
The solution
Yes exactly as frixosmjoker said .. do factory reset and everything will be ok
Hi,
I discovered a strange (or maybe not so strange) behavior on my S3 (I-9300) today:
As I restart my phone and wait for it to boot before I enter my PIN to unlock my SIM card, the language gets changed to German (Switzerland).
Now I am not sure where that comes from. Fact is, I bought this phone in Switzerland, and I have a Swiss phone provider (Lebara) that uses a Swiss network operator (Sunrise). My phone number is therefore also Swiss. However, I live in the French speaking region of Switzerland (I actually live in France about 200 yards away from the border), but not in the German speaking part.
Here is the funny part and also the reason why I only found out today (and this makes it hard for me to troubleshoot it): If I enter my PIN as soon as I practically can (i.e. I do not give my phone the time to fully boot, which is what I always did until today) the language setting is conserved (i.e. it sticks to English, which is my system preference).
Also, if I do not enter my PIN at all and I stay on the lock screen, the language also stays English. Once I enter it though, it switches to German like 2 seconds later.
Could it be possible that my language setting is somehow tied to:
my provider / phone number / network operator?
my location (I have location completely disabled btw) ?
my IMEI or some other device related information?
Has anybody experienced something similar?
I am using Android Revolution HD 29.0 btw...
Any comment is highly appreciated.Thanks!
Only initial language is dependant on your CSC and sim card, once changed it will stay. Reflash your rom or go back to stock to test.

Ok, here is what happened:
I observed this behavior after updating some of my apps via Google Play yesterday. So I suspect one of these updates triggered this odd behavior.
To further troubleshoot this, I turned on Flight Mode yesterday after booting my phone (and having changed the language back to English). As I turned off Flight Mode again, without rebooting the phone, the language switched back to German again.
This made me assume that it must somehow be related to GSM/my network operator. I do not select my network operator automatically, but I choose it manually (since I live close to the border and want to avoid roaming fees). So I went back into settings and selected my network operator manually again.
This resolved the issue. Language setting no longer gets reset after reboot.
Hope this helps someone who one day might face the same issue.
Thanks

The only app we have in common is SuperSU. Try setting your network operator again (Settings > More Settings > Mobile Networks > Network Operators)
Let me know if it does not work.

I'm running a custom rom on a samsung Galaxy tab plus and have been having exactly the same issue, originally it seemed triggered for me by turning of my bluetooth connection. I ended up reinstalling the rom and having thing work right step by step until google play did its updates which caused my language to reset to Russian.. After finding this thread and realizing we all have the same app in common " Super user"
This raised my attention where I went into the superuser app, I un installed Superuser and re installed a different superuser from Google play, this seems to have solved the issue, and my language is now not reset on reboot, hope this helps someone.
I tried to uninstall supersu and probl is fixd, but I need root and installed again supersu and problem no exists, pls help to solve.
Same thing is happening to me on my rooted touchwiz phone, it also has SuperSU installed and was recently updated.
It's running 4.1.2 and every other reboot it sets to english (UK) all by itself (that's it's default region)
So many system restores/wipes/restores over the last two days and thought it was just I that was getting it at first
So it happened again the other day. It is a SuperSU issues which has been addressed with the latest release.
Hi,
I had the same problem with Galaxy S III purchased from UK, flashed Czech version of stock rom (rooted) and czech SIM card. The language reverted from English to Czech after every restart. (Google Play store also asks me for another confirmation of the terms and Google voice typing is turned on after restart, although it may not be related to the problem.)
Updating SuperSU from Play store didn't help. Manually choosing my operator solved it (Settings > More Settings > Mobile Networks > Network Operators).
Still no solution!
Hi all,
OK, I notice that this thread is pretty old but still without a solution. Sadly I am not offering one, only concurring that my phone, not rooted, has the same problem. It is an Austrian sim card (3 network, German language as standard) and reverts to German with every on-off, restart or flight mode. Hopefully by now someone has solved this niggle as it appears to have been around for quite some time.
After trying factory reset and setting all apps, the phone settings and Apex to English without success, my assumption is that the sim card is to blame as I had an Austrian 3 sim in my last phone and had no problems at all.
BTW I have a new sim now (same provider and phone number) to unlock the NFC capabilities of the new phone.
Feedback would be greatly appreciated, a solution even more so!
Thanks

Download stock rom from below link. Flash tool and flashing process also given in the zip.

You might just be able to sideload a launcher apk via adb.

Instead of flashing rom,
First try to install any launcher from playstore since you can open settings
Set it as default launcher from settings itself after installing
If the problem still exists then you can go for flashing rom
Also press the thanks button if I helped
