hi.
thanks for you time to reading this...
i buy a X10i from the market in used it is ruining on Android 1.6
i want to rooted it and update on 2.1
i know both thing that who to root it and how to update it.
i just want to know that which action i do perform first ? either i rooted it or update it.
please tell me i update it first or rooted it first.
and one thing more if i update it from sonyericsson then after update can i rooted it with the help of Z4root or not
Update it to 2.1 then root it with flash tools. Then why not install xRecovery and use a custom rom TripNMiUI 2.2.1 v1.4 is nice

install 2.1 and all things needed (root, superuser,busybox --> all in flashtool)
take a look at dev section and have fun
Update first then root using flashtool.
Once uwill get to that stage, maybe a custom rom? TripNMiui 2.2.1 is very nice and stable

Ever since the 2.1 update my stock android browser is painfully slow. It hangs when loading pages, and is overall slow. I like the stock browser and wish to continue using it. I have tried to clear the cache often and reset all settings in the browser and nothing helps.
What's the baseband and build number of ur x10?
Did u try clearing history or killing apps before using your phone browser? I know killing apps is controversal.
Tell me this info. And maybe i can help

PC Companion. I am on Rogers in Canada.
U mite want to consider doing flash tool from xda website under x10 developement section only cuz u can pick different build numbers if ones dont work for u. I havent heard this issuse before since i started at least looking at these forums since at least december. This rom and firmware stuff work for different people so try it out if u want to go that route. Let me know and i can help u get a link for flashtool of u cant find it.

Thanks ill have a look at that.
How much would having the "enable location" setting checked affect performance?
I tried unchecking it and the browser seems much more responsive.
Hey u mite have found ur solution

i recently shifted from Nokia to Android and i rooted my X10i today , did most of the tweaks but the issue is that i am confused between roms and firmwares , whats the main difference ? yeah also lead me to a rom for x10i
p.s: my first post on XDA
Well for roms whats the difference? Well customs roms are made my nice people here on xda and the firmwares from sony if im wrong correct me and a rom i'd suggest you its the best 2.2 stable and fastest rom its called freex10 madr by zdzihu look for it in the developement section and also you might wanna try wolfbreaks one it has more customisation and welcome to xda buddy

you can use Trip rom as well , its very cool
i meanyt to say that if i install any rom will i loose my generic se firmware or data ?
You can always go back to general SE firmware by clicking repair in SEUS.
The data on your sdcard is usually safed when changing between ROMs. But to be sure you can make a backup in xRecovery. Or use an app like Titanium backup or My Backup Root.
Owner of Post,
Do you have the latest version of busybox installed yet and xrecovery yet, because if you don't, I or somebody else can help you. So post again and if you need it and I will post some links for you to use.
i don't have e'm

Here is flashtool that will help with many things with the x10 like rooting, new se firmwares, installing busybox, ect.
What is your baseband? I need to know before you do the following below.

and here is the how to to use flashtool.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10879507#post10879507
since your phone is already rooted, install busybox with flashtool first then xrecovery with this link.

then pick on of the lovely ROMs with with the correct baseband you have.
im on 2.1.54

Good. Now you can use most if not all 2.2 ROMS. Go the busybox step then.

by the way, it doesn't matter if your phone is X10a or X10i. that just means your phone hardware frequency is different. you can use any custom ROM. I recommend Trip's GB MiUI ;-)
Sent from my X10 TripNMiUI using XDA Premium App
u should try wolfbreak's custom rom in the android development section since your baseband is on .54 if not you have to take the trouble to flash your baseband to .49 or 52 for trips rom
Thanks Guys
Hello!
I wonder if there will be a way to root the stock SE 2.3.3 fw withtout flashing the pre-rooted version in the next days or if its something hard to do.
Also, does the update of baseband, fw, kernel, etc... means something to the devs of custom ROMs like fixing camera bugs
Thx
A root method will come with some time.

Im tired of waiting i have an x10a im going to flash gb already, what should i do? Flash stock and wait for root? Or search for that pre-rooted stock ive heard about?
Ive read about the wb rom but i dont want to miss any features of the stock(sorry if i dont know, noob at the whole custom rom stuff?.
But i had my 2.1 rooted and i loved it(specially the ability to control cpu usage)

Root is already out for gb

Oh thats good, so it would be better to flash stock and root, but i just heard(read) so many good things about the wb rom im undecided,what features of stock would i be missing with wb?

If you look at wb Rom it comes with the gingerbread baseband to flash if you already have root on 2.1 you dont need to upgrade to stock gingerbread flash the Rom dont reboot then flash the baseband then reboot gingerbread with root and xrecovery

Im undecided on what to try the pre rooted stock or wb? Damn

i'm also x10a originally but there's absolutely nothing wrong in flashing a x10i, looks like baseband 71 works on all regions.
Yay now running gb, feels like a new phone(at least on-screen)
Sent from my x10a"i"(running pre-rooted 2.3.3) thanks doomlord:-D
If you don't want to miss anything, don't use custom ROM. Just root to delete unneed apps and xRecovery to install plugin. It works perfect.
