Hey all, Infinitybiff here. I make awesome winzip romz. In all seriousness, I'm a bit of a developer. I'm hoping one of you fellas (or ladies) has managed to update their unbranded xperia to the 2.3 update that was released today. I'd like to get the file that the SE updater downloaded to your system or a system dump of the rom if at all possible. My intent is to make a custom rom flashable to all x10 (with root and busybox of course). I'm sure someone is already working on it, but figured i'd get the ball rolling.
If you want to update your unbranded x10 to 2.3 and help out the community, you can download the SE updater from HERE
update is not released yet the word is that its starts rolling out on friday

Hi Infinitybiff,
Do you have a X10 if so can you try and update and the upload all the files for us. as you live in the future.
When it is released im sure your support and work will be more than welcome.
welp. looks like all the sites that said its out are a bit off base. I stand corrected. *waits patiently*
You just cant simply supdate X10 to gingerbread by xRecovery.Our recovery cant touch the kernel and baseband.
We must update th kernel and baseband first,then by recovery.

Taylor Swift.
About 2 years ago,West interrupted her on the stay of CMT,later president Obama,in a non-official talk,called West a 'jerk'
I am now concering wheather Xrecovery will work after flashing new kernel.
I konw we have to update the kernel and baseband using flashtool first,then boot into xRec to flash the rom.It will be bad if we cant boot into xRec after flashing.jew kernel.Or we flash the rom first,then flash the kernel?

I don't know... no matter which phone you choose, SEUS will recognize the actual info from TA/GDFS.
Only stock FW has customization-related apps that read info from build.prop and write it to TA, so since I have it, I'm gonna try something about it

When you load pc companion or SEUS you will see a button to check for updates, it will then tell you the software is up to date but would you like to reinstall it anyway. If you click 'yes' it will then begin downloading the latest 'official' SE 2.1 ROM and install it (wiping your phone in the process).

Anyway, if you get in trouble with it, you can always manually flash an old official rom to it and then update it through SEUS.

I rooted my x10 mini android 2.1 to 2.3 CyanogenMod 7.0 with this version my SD card didnt work. Then tried CyanogenMod 7.9, after restart theres only Sony Ericsson logo on the screen, then I disconnectied battery and phone went to clockworkmode. From there I cant do anything. I have tried to restore( no files ) and then reinstall android but installation was aborted. when I reboot my phone then logo stays.
NEXT DAY: something happened, riht now only Sony Ericsson logo on the screen. clockworkmode does not work anymore!
I hope somebody can help me out. Its my first Android and im new at this.

Use xrecovery to make nandbackups. Doomkernel <-

And where to find xrecovery for 2011 xperias ?
Don't tell me to search in the forum there's no post about it, expect one with compatibility problem with the ray.
if you know what you're doing it is impossible to destroy the phone, by the way cell phones service need to earn a little money

Hi guys,
My apologizes if its been asked already. From my quick research it hasn't.
So, the GF just got an Xperia Ray (essentially the same phone) its on 2.3.3 and she would like to update it to 2.3.4 and NOT ICS.
She says that when she launches Sony Update Service the program only asks to update to ICS...
Any idea?
Would like to keep the official updating method here;
Thanks in advance.
yea SUS only gives you the ICS update..but it might give you the GB update when the new one (4.0.2.A.0.84) releases.. (if it releases )
