Overheating and reboots second time - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i had this problem before , and i know there are tons about it, but, is there some one who changed motherboard, and it starded again ? Or can it cause wolfbreaks CM6 v061 with custom kernel ?... Thanks for responses.

Did you revert back to 2.1 and check if the issue persists?

Im testing it now on 2.1 , but even in 2.2 it was really sometimes that he do it, so ill know more after night full of gaming and checking maps

Heya dude.. it may be possible that you got the botched board.
If that is true send it back to a SE service center or your phone retailer ASAP!!!
And tell them not to waste your time!!! i sent my phone to SE 5 times.. the fourth time i got it back and they did nothing i exploded..
Now it's also possible your just having a baseband malfunction...
Re-flash to stock using SEUS "Sony Erricson Update Service" and make sure to "restore factory settings"
Then give the stock rom & baseband at least 6 hours to a day to settle in...
Then begin your rooting and flashing.
Then again it may be bad apps...
The x10 is too full of ****e to be 100% sure.
Stick to using 2G in area's of bad signal quality!!!!! this is the main cause of the heat 90% of the time. due to the crappy energy inefficient GSM radio in the x10
Good luck.

[Q] Xperia X10 Mini Pro always restart... =(

Hi guys...
I just flashed my X10 Mini Pro but it is still having the same problem...restart by itself even i didn't do anything to that phone...( i already used this phone from january 2011 till now..) android version 2.1...
please...what should i do?
i don't know how to solve this....
=(
What ROM are you using... give people a little more information before asking.
My mini pro have been restarting too until I turned off JIT. Go to Settings→CM Settings→Performance→Ok, uncheck Use JIT and reboot. It should improve stability at cost of performance.
I think I just post here...
My x10 mini pro started to behave strange (firstly lags, freezes, reboots, later just constant reboots) about 2-3 weeks ago. I thought ok, I probably screwed something. Later not only while heavy use, but even after entering pin it rebooted, the pin->reboot->pin->reboot cycle went for some time (2-5 times mostly), usually waiting few minutes before entering pin or airplane mode helped (but after turning it off phone rebooted).
So 3 days ago I had enough, I used SEUS. But it's happening again! I reflashed again, restored only texts, synced with google account, nothing more, but phone rebooted few times.
So I'm wondering, does the phone have hardware issues or did SEUS leave some earlier stuff on phone memory?
(ROM 2.1.1.A.0.6)
Sorry for my bad english. Nov to the theme im having the same problem. onley thing that helped was to turn off all data conectionf via 2G/3G mobile network. So i can use just Wi-Fi when ever i connect to the internet whit mobile 2G/3G the phone restarts just like you discribed...
@j000
I think there is something wrong with hardware and I suggest you to give your phone to service. You can also check if turning off mobile data will fix it.
@Jurasek88
Trying to fix it isn't worth of effort so the best way is to do full backup of user data with Titanium, reinstall ROM you are using and restore data. If it doesn't help, you should give it to service or live without mobile data.
Tried various ROMs. Tried turning off JIT.
At the beginning everything works fine, then after a few days it's restart a day, the a couple restarts a day. 2 weeks later it restarts almost every hour.
It's so frustrating i feel like smashing the damn phone on the wall. I could install the original old SW, but it's a joke. What a piece of crap this SE.
Am I alone in this?

OmegaRED: With 2G I get EXCELLENT battery life. The longest I ever had. DX appears to be stable... No reboots at all. Nice.
I wonder what makes it suck battery like crazy in 3G....
faiyyaz: Thanks for the reccomendation. As long as DX is stable I think I'll stick to it... Is Gin Tonic better than DX in your opinion?

I recommend CyanoComb 1.4 and GingerDX v12 , stable and long last battery life (>> 2 days for me )
but I got problem when touching in 2.3.5 (always miss in typing letters in the corners ==!) so I chose CyanoComb 1.4

both are great roms for battery life but my vote goes to gdx. aside from it being a gb rom, it's constantly being updated. it's only gonna get better.

In fact, not better, but more beautiful... Maybe. Better for updated programs and libs. Check the changelog in X8 original post about GingerDX. ;-)

Most GingerBread ROMs are basically the same. What's differ is framework, theme and apps-pack.
Theme should not make any difference in stability or battery-drain.
Framework and apps-pack will.
Try to remove som preinstalled apps like DSP manager (removing this will increase performance and battery life).
paul-xxx made 2 ROMs that are the same framework, but diff theme and apps-pack. I find SonyBread insanely stabel (manually removed DSP manager). Not a single reboot since i startet using this (2 weeks now).
achyut made a list of apps he removed. get inspiration from this
yes most of the 2.3.5 roms drain battery, i installed advanced task manager so u can check which apps are always starting up in the background and try freezing with titanium backup to make sure they dont effect the running of device...make sure your not signed into latitude, disabe gprs and the'use my location ' for alot of useless things running,and a big 1 for me was the auto sync in settings-account n auto sync...all these help but no way as long as 2.1! iv just installed minicm7 pro 8, claim battery drain is fixed, by paulxxx BIG THANKS paul esp if battery consumptions improved

[HELP] Wifi killing battery!

OK, I've searched for information about this and found little, so if there is a thread already please point me to it.
My battery life has been terrible of late. According to my phone, WiFi is what is pulling the most battery (about 56%). I never really had this problem before switching ROMs. Before I had the problem, I was running z's FreeXperia 2.2 ROM and could get two-three days of battery life without turning WiFi off. Now I am running Wolf's V6 and have to charge my phone every night to keep it from dying. I've tried the battery calibration app, wiping battery stats, and the battery life guide. This problem has occurred with all my 2.3 ROMs that I've flashed, so I know it's not the ROM itself. Has anyone else had this problem? I'm thinking I will use PC Companion to repair back to 2.1 then flash back to 2.3. My hope is something messed with WiFi during previous flash. Anyway, I thought I'd check here before I went flashing my phone to death again.
Also, I know someone will say 'just turn off WiFi,' but I don't have unlimited data (thanks AT&T) so I keep my WiFi on so I don't run up my data usage.
Which kernel ru using for wolfs Rom the stock or custom ...i think stock kernel gives a better battery life compared to the custom...and which all kernel did u try for his Rom
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I'm running the stock kernel. I've figured out that WiFi isn't the problem. I switched WiFi to be turn off when phone shuts down and that helped, but it's still terrible battery life. I had it fully charged last night before I went to bed. I used it lightly before going to sleep and woke up this morning at 81%. No reason the phone should be draining that quickly. Now cell standby is 39% of battery usage and phone idle is 32% of usage. WiFi is down to 20% with new setting. I guess I need to learn how to do screenshots.
Right now I'm thinking something must not have happened correctly when I flashed the baseband/kernel, because I've tried every piece of advice on this forum. Will reflash back to stock and start there. Will report back to say if that helped.
I have the same issue but right after installing fb 2.0, before that it was awesome
Just an update on the "problem." I flashed back to 2.1 then flashed Wolfbreak v6 twice to try and solve the problem. I also didnt do a full restore on one flash hoping to figure something out. Finally, after having my phone freak out on me, I decided to flash the stock x10a 2.3 firmware. Battery life is back to pre-wolfbreak levels. Wondering if the whole x10i vs. x10a is causing a problem as wolfbreak's rom is for the "i" and I have an "a"
Running FPS uncap on stock rom and it performs well for me. Satisfied for now...until ICS rom

[Q] Sudden Turn offs. Please help

Hi,
I am currently using my x10 on "TheGo2 V12.1 ROM with FreeXperia+tatsuo rev 09-4 kernel. The bootloader is unlocked. Baseband is 2.1.71.
The issue is whenever I use my phone heavily like play a game, or talk on phone for 10 minutes or so, or take two or three pictures with the camera, or anything that would make the phone do some heavy tasks, the phone turns off it-self. If I try to turn it back on right after it shuts off, the phone turns on and comes to the lock screen but then freezes and shuts off again. So to make it work again I have to give it a few minutes and then turn it on.
Now it only happens when I have the phone running on battery and when the battery percentage is below 90. When I have it on charge through usb or ac charger, I can use the phone as much as I want to and It doesn't turn off.
I notice something else also. Sometimes the battery would keep dropping rapidly if I keep turning it on after it shuts off itself. It will come down to 0% or 1%. However, the phone will keep on working (no heavy use, just simple text messaging) and the battery percentage would start to increase itself (no, phone is not on charge).
I have tried many different ROMS and kernels (Stock based, MIUI, CM) but no luck.
I don’t know what the problem is. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
>>>> The problem was a bad battery. There wasn't anything wrong with software nor it was because of overclocked phone. I changed my battery and now I am not having any sudden turn offs.

Yea, I think it is the hardware problem too. Or could it be some script on sdcard that is making the phone go crazy. (Just guessing about the script) lol.
Also, the phone is overclocked. I use 225 min and between 998 to 115200 max. I don't think it is the because of the frequencies. I have tried different frequencies. If it was the frequency then why doesn't it shut off when it is on charge??
I have an X10 that was showing the same symptoms, after a while it stopped booting all together. No way to flash it or do anything with it.
I think ur problem is overclocking. Each device has certain tolerance to different frequencies many can't handle higher/lower freq bands. Try bringing it down to default c how it works (ps don't set on boot)

I had this issue. Finally i figured out that it's kernel case(in my situation). I flashed stock kernel abd BINGO reboots stopped. I flashed doomkernel latest version and DOUBLE BINGO! no reboots + option for OC/UC

I had the phone on custom kernel, overclocked and unlocked bootloader for a while and It was working fine untill I installed this MIUI rom and I followed the battery calibration process that was in the MIUI thread. It didn't happen while I was using the MIUI rom. It started to happen when I changed back to the stock based roms.
It might be the frequencies, but I personally think there is some other problem. Because If it was the frequencies or because of overclocked, it should turn off even while it is on charge.
It only turns off when it is running on battery.
I will keep the suggestions in mind. Thank you all for giving your suggestions.
I am thinking to bring the phone back to the original 2.1 rom and lock the bootloader. I'll check if it happens again. If not, then I'll take it step by step to see what causes the phone to do it.
Use seus/pc companion first if they mot wok flash global generic firmware (gingerbread though not eclair2.1) if ur problem still persists let us know pal u may just need fresh install.

Alright, I will try that and will report back if the problem is still there or it went away.
No probs pal
No luck, I went back to stock 2.3 rom with stock kernel but it happened again..
Is it overclocked? Maybe is that, when I overclock mine to 1,2 GHZ, it just can't handle it and reboots at every attempt of use.

Oh, its damaged all right. I had two x10s that had the same problem. As far as I know (from Sony Ericsson warranty rep) the problem is a damaged motherboard. Not your fault by the way, it was apparently an electrical short that somehow screwed the whole board. I've had two replacement x10s and am sending this to you from my third x10. Your problem should be covered under warranty, so find your regional sony ericsson support number and call them. They should be able to get you a replacement. If not, you should start shopping for a new phone.
Oh, but first you should relock your bootloader.

No it wasn't overclocked. I had it down to stock ROM, kernel. No root also and it still did it.
Yea I think it is a hardware problem. The only thing I don't understand is why does it not do it when I have it running on ac power. It only does it when it is running on battery. :/

Umm, it is an odd problem. Happens only when running on battery as I have said before....
It has taken many falls. Good thing is the screen didn't break but the back cover got loose and it has some dents on the conrers. lol
I will try again. I have to re lock my bootloader first. Then I would go back and do a fresh install. I am thinking starting back to the 2.1.
I don't have a job right now or else I would have bought the Arc S by now. lol.. Is anyone hiring btw?
Thank you all for the help. Really appreciate it.
same problem
I've been experiencing exactly the same.
In addition, I don't know if anyone noticed, the battery use graph looks like the battery is doing some weird stuff. It looks as if the battery drains when in use, but then it comes back up. I've had readings of 30% battery after using, but after letting it sit and rest, it comes back up to 50%.
And this happens with stock and custom roms. I've used Wolf's and Zmod, and the same turn-offs happen in all of them, as well as the battery use.
Anyways, I just flashed stock, and I'm taking it today to service!

Exatcly the same issue with me. The battery drains fast, but if I leave it unsued, it starts to come back up. Like yesterday night, I was using it normal. Just texting and I had the wifi on. So, the battery starts to drain and got to 1%. The phone turned off.
I turned it back on after a few seconds and it had 2% battery and it kept going up. It is like a self charge system or something. lol.
I ended up ordering a new battery for the phone. Maybe that will fix it. It only cost me $12 on amazon with free shipping. So, let's what happens.

[Q] Xperia X10i with CM7(battery problem)!

Hi guys, I am new on this forum. I have an Xperia x10i and I have a problem with it, with his battery actually. So the problem started when i have upgraded to CM7. Actually in the first couple of days I do not have any problem with it, but in one day i shut down my phone, I took the battery off( it was ~55/56%) to put my sim in other mobile, and when i put it back the battery was 1%. I did not know what to to so i charged it up. in ~50 mins he was 100% and since then my battery is 0 in ~15 hours. and i use just the msg aplication to talk with my GF. no games nothing.I.ve played a game last night and from 46% in 30mins it was 29%. i have use the wipe battery stats,clear all things, putting CM7 again on it. i use "launcher application but i do not think that this is the problem. bofore the 56%->1% case the phone last 2/3 days but now i have to charged it every night.
ps. And some of my SMS text do not deliver to the person. min it says that "msg recived" but they do not recive anyting from me...
Please can someone help me?
Should i go with the official version?
Should i try a different ROM? wich one?[pls tutorial]
it could be the sim with the SMS problem?
Sounds like its the rom to me.I had the same problem with the THGo rom,worked out it would be lucky to last 15 hours doing nothing on it.
I have tried about all the roms on here(apart from championswimmers one),and Ive formed the conclusion that the minuses cancel out the pluses.
This is why Im on a streamlined stock rom type of setup.I can understand how people want to change away from the stock stuff after using it for 2 years,but Ive not really reached that point yet.
nb. no offence to developers hard work on here
Welcome to XDA!
I had the same problem back in 1.6, was going to the airport with around 60% battery and then dropped my phone, battery fell out and when I rebooted, I had "1%" left.
Ofc I was shocked ****less (battery dropped from 60% to 1%) Soon I figured out to pull the battery out and put it back in, battery went back to normal.
Hope this helps!

Hey man, welcome to XDA! xD
Anyways on to your battery problem, as prodigy says, try taking it out and putting back in (Mite try that got few problems atm xD) anyways 2nd, try the calibration method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943626&highlight=battery) or there is a app on Android market but am not to sure how accurate it is, 2nd are you using task killers if so get rid, they kill ur battery, i dont know your skill level so try this at ur own risk, undervolt the CPU using No Frills CPU free on market, DoomLord is the guy to ask bout UV/OV so post on his forum or Q/A also there is a video sony made about increasing battery (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjuQyFPKlb0) hope these tips help, Oh and on the text problem, are u on BB .71? you cant actually send the texts out if not.
@XDroidie626 humm i do not know where should i see that... i.m a lil noob on this cha[pter . if you can help me, it would be great-> PM if you want

[Q] 2.1.1.A.0.6 Firmware Stock Eclair - How to obtain Better Batery Life?. Solved!

Hey people.
Well i have a little problem, i went back to the stock eclair version but the battery is a little worse than GB.
Some say that is possible to make Eclair more battery life than GB with some steps.
I tried to do some steps that were shown to me in my other thread:
Jit-enabler
CWM-Installer
X10Mini Undervolt module
Root-Explorer
Remove Apps
I did this on 2.1.1.c.0.0, but the battery started to become Unstable and Hot, that's why i downgraded now to 2.1.1.a.0.6 and hoping that anyone knows how to help me in this one.
So question is: how to get the most battery out of my Eclair in XPeria Mini Pro x10?
Good answers will deserve a Thanks Press Button

u better try custom roms than original x10 mini pro..
why?
-undervolt is great but ur phone will be slower (dont u knw u20i is a low end devices?)
-remove systems apps could make another problem.. (fc there & here)
-using "link2sd" is great way to save phone memory problems.

I don't think there's difference at all, i've been testing today the stock 2.1.1.a.0.6 with many apps removed, rooted, with 480mhz/122mhz min with SetCpu.
In the results i've obtain today i notice 3 things:
1 - Undervolt isn't worth it, in GB i used only 3 days to test it and the battery life was the same as not having undervolt at all, besides it makes the phone worse. ( well i don't see this phone as a low end, i see this phone as an almost perfect one, it has a good camera/good sound/stable, so what more do i need? just because it doesn't have Original a 2.3 android with 1000mhz processor and stuff? What is the point of having a phone with such power if the sound/camera/stuff isn't good enough?. This is the only phone that never get me problems for going to repair, and the material that this phone is made is very good, the paint doesn't damage and in general nothing is damaged, it's always like it's brand new and that is amazing, this phone is no low end, it's an underrated device. I only use this phone for "calls, sms and listen music", battery lasts me 3 days using this )
2 - Removing apps is safe to do, as long as you know what you're doing, for me it went well because today i had no force closes or problems.
Just an add: don't need app2sd/link2sd and stuff like that, i only use the basics of the phone ( music, calls, sms ).
3 - And this one is the blockbuster: For everyone who thought that GB was better in battery life than the original Eclair, well think again...
This time i only made the steps: stock 2.1.1.a.0.6 with "many" apps removed, rooted, with 480mhz/122mhz min with SetCpu, without undervolts and stuffs like that.
And the results were: The very "same" battery life than GB roms. That's right mate 'and all people who is seeing this', Today i'm testing it and right now i'm still with 78% battery life ( phone is on for about 21 Hours now ), what is the very same amount of battery i used to have with GB roms about now.
So for everyone who is afraid of going back to Original Stock Eclair, don't be afraid, because it's the very same as GB roms in battery life but it's even more stable and secure. All you have to do is those steps i already mentioned above and you're good to go , but... if you want to use your phone with apps that only work on 2.3 Android or if you like to Customize your Rom then just Stick with Gb roms and you're good to go 2 , just make sure you're using Gingersony V06 ( with led fix ) because it's the most stable rom out there and you're good to go .
Well i think this subject is Closed now. Thanks
