Here's the Market fix for ROOTED X10a and X10i with R2BA026. This will ONLY work on R2BA026! If you try it on any other firmware, you WILL get a yellow exclamation mark!
I made this because people are having trouble with the fix for 024 to 026 update. This one uses the R2BA020 fingerprint from Rogers-branded (Canadian) firmware.

Standalone Toggle Secure Shell script (run this if ADB won't let you mount /system directory)
ToggleSecureShell_X10.rar (Megaupload)
You must have PC Companion or Sony Ericsson Update Service installed, and you must have USB debugging enabled on your phone. There is NO NEED for Java or Device ID.
Run MarketFix_R2BA026_X10a.cmd or MarketFix_R2BA026_X10i.cmd to use it.
It keeps a backup of your original build.prop and default.prop files on your SD card. I've made an undo script, but I'm not sure if it works (Can you run adb after you get a yellow exclamation mark? I think you can, but I'm not 100% sure).
Please wait up to 24 hours for it to work.
If you still can't get it to work: I had to do this when NONE of the Market fixes were working. I reflashed my phone (a factory reset may work too), and then used Titanium Backup to restore my apps. I didn't restore my phone settings and region settings, but set them up manually instead. I installed the Market fix and it finally worked! Apparently, something in my backup screwed up my Market access.
Edit: Added X10i Market fix courtesy of MarylandCookie. The only difference is that I combined it with my script.
Noticed after a week of running 026 without issues (or so I thought), my paid market apps weren't showing up. I hadn't noticed before because the apps got re-installed when I restored my backup after upgrading my firmware.
Anywho, someone pointed me to this thread when I reported my market issue, and your process worked perfectly. Only took a couple of hours for the market to update for me.
Thanks!

Absolutely fantastic - I have F3 v3'd my X10 so now on R2BA026 and couldn't get my apps that I'd bought (ultimatejuice mainly) and some of the others I had like MyPlayer wouldn't work either - I tried the previous market fix and got the bricked Yellow ! on my phone so had to reflash. Found this - works PERFECTLY. Only took 30 mins for my apps to reappear, don't know if this was helped along by appbrain as when I searched market, UJ wasn't there but then I searched appbrain and there it was - MyPlayer was similar, searched appbrain and it wasn't there, so searched market and it appeared.
BRILLIANT fix. Thank you guys so much.
Just applied the patch now. Will update when I get access to apps.
UPDATE Already working!

It installed okay on 026 with my Rogers x10a.. now I wait to see what the market gods give me.
If I see the TD Canada Trust app I know this fix is the one.

Marketfix for 026 x10a
Hey guys, I went through the marketfix procedure and it's been almost 48hrs now and I'm still seeing no difference with apps on the market. Anyone else here with an x10a experiencing similar problems? Any suggestions outside of re-rooting and trying again? I don't mind waiting for the next upgrade, but obviously, if I can fix this now, then that would be better.
Thanks for your help..
Is this for rooted or un-rooted devices.
I've updated to R2BA026, Unrooted, but certain items are missing off the market. Myplayer being an example!
myplayer is also an example I have, but I'm talking about a 026 rooted x10a.

You could try this (it'll erase your stuff though):
1. Back up your apps, contacts, SMS, etc.
2. Factory reset (Settings > SD card & phone storage > Factory data reset).
3. Turn on USB debugging.
4. Install Market fix.
5. Test Market.
6. Restore apps, etc. DON'T restore saved region and phone settings.

It's for ROOTED phones only. Protected apps are missing if the fingerprint for the new firmware hasn't been approved by the Market yet. This fix basically spoofs the fingerprint to an older, approved one.
hi guys,i'm from brazil.I would like to now if is possible access the market doing this process.I've rooted my xperia x10a with RB...026 2 times,and i've installed the market fix too,but it seems to doesn't work.Could any one tell me something
Fantastic. 3 Hours and I'm seeing ALL apps
3G has sped up quite a bit as well. It was going at about 10kB/s ever since I applied the fix and as soon as the apps started showing in the market it's jumped up to 110kB/s.
Perhaps it was just (another) coincidence, but all my market downloads were stalling at "Starting download" and they started as soon as I switched on Google Talk. At the same time, the missing apps showed up in the market.
Ah well, I'm just glad everything is working smoothly

guiguisk8, can you supply more details? Which way do you root it? If you used exploid, did you keep your branded (Brazil) firmware, or did you flash with Generic X10a? Also, how long has it been since you applied the Market fix? Sometimes it takes a few hours.
hi grospolina,i used the new exploit that uses a cmd file where you type commands.I've installed the busybox(what is his function?) and the marketfix.The firmware is generic, by the way
another 2 questions: is possible install games like hero of sparta? And when the phone is rooted,appear a cmd prontop file on the prone?
Hi guys I just want to ask if i did these steps will i have a market on my X10i ????
Cause in my country X10i didn't come with android market
And I have the latest framware R2BA026
Please I need your help I want the market so bad
A new official LG India firmware has been launched, V10C. it's on android 2.2.1 and gets 31fps on neocore. So I guess it's the same as the V10E that people are describing.
The SD card still behaves weirdly, not sure about unmounting since I've not made any calls. Overall, the system has become noticeably slower. Would it be safe to roll back to V10B using the KDZ updater?

Try the optimus prime-v2, its fast and will meet your requirements. SD card problem is rare in it and the entire firmware sits on SD card, so you get a lot of free memory.
Not dev thread.
Moving to general.
Cheers
Ok I tested it out.. this firmware is quite horrible and it did not fix anything and the phone has become really slow in every way. I'm reverting to V10B for now, no choice. Hope all goes well.
I have strange problem after upgrading my p500 to v10c. it stopped notify me for any incoming calls. even vibration is not working in the silent mode. But the called number listed as missed call. pls somebody throw some light on this issue.
How to downgrade from v10c to v10b?
Sluggish and useless
Seemed like LG rushed this update. The device becomes too slow and sluggish. Upgraded and downgraded after 2 hours. Rooting through conventional means is broken.
Not upgrading. My P500 works fine at the moment with the older Firmware.
Any idea how to remove the crap apps they have pre-installed ?

Root and remove unneeded apk(s) and their corresponding odex files from /system/app using any root supported file browser like root explorer. Before doing this you might want to clear data. To cleanup left over odex files also remove from /data/dalvik-cache. You can cleanup this entire directory, but you would have to reboot for odex files to be re-created.

I couldn't figure out how to install that. The optimus prime post is not very clear about the steps.. it seems to be linking to other posts which aren't too clear themselves..
I am still on V10b, so do you guys strictly suggest not to upgrade to V10c?
Almost everything is fine for me with the current version, apart from one one strange problem..
The bulk SMS received do not get grouped properly. Bulk SMS 'from name' are usually in the format XX-XXXXX, now what happens is.. if the number of characters in the 'from name' of sms after '-' are same (whatever be the name), they are grouped together in the same thread.
This happens only with bulk sms which has name in above mentioned format, all other sms are grouped properly. Also, this happens in every sms application i have tried including the default one.
Hope i was able to explain it properly. Anyone else facing the same issue?

Found this post - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875881
Just bought a P500 with stock 2.2. A couple of hours after using it it started to restart itself every few hours. From what i understood reading other topics 2.2.1 sorted it which brings me to my other problem.
When i first connected it to wireless network it said that an update is available and i had to connect it to the usb to apply it. LG website said that theres an update for P500 too. Installed the update tool but it keeps saying my phone is up to date and so does the LG Suite.Havent had the chance to connect it to wireless again after that so not sure if it still will say that.
Software ver: V10a-OCT-01-2010
Any help for either of these problems will be appreciated.
Thanks
Can anyone help please?
LG support answer : Mobile Phone Support: The P500 is one of our more recent releases, and as such is on the most recent available software; 2.2 Froyo. Currently there is no further update available, hence the Support Tools given information.
The updates are based on the region and service provided you are with. So it is best to contact them with questions regarding the latest updates. Not all of them will have the latest firmware.
What about the restarting problem?
Dud as I said in another thread , everybody has his own UNIQUE P500 . You could try to manually flash the newest firmware with kdz . The new fmw was posted in xda a few days ago .
But I suggest you go to warranty with your phone . I don't think the restart problem will be sorted out if you try the newest firmware.
Restarting problem will be hard to determine... there are numerous possibilities which could cause it:
1. Some of the apps you have installed may have compatibility issues with p500, hence resulting in constant reboot when it encounters an error
2. Not very unlikely, but a physical fault to the mainboard may also cause it to restart every few hours
I do not believe that every p500 is unique, since they're manufactured in batches, resulting in certain batch having characteristics which may be unique, but should not have such a strong impact on the user such as in this circumstance.
What I trully meant AzN and I wanted to hold it under SPECIAL as to not be rude , was that quality control in the P500 is rather mediocre.
I just noticed restart happened when SD unmounted and mounted itself for some reason. Would it be the SD clip problem or a software problem or the SD itself?

It has been reported that the problem is due to the low class of the stock sd card. Other users have confirmed that using an sd card with class 4 or class 6 will fix the issue.
I don't know bro I have a class 6 , 8 gig card and with a2sd I get some bugs from time to time . Now I am just using void without a2sd and it's grand . Haven't had any bugs for 1 week now.
a SD card class 4 solved it damn you cheap ass LG
I haven't upgraded from the stock rom yet, but I'm considering it because it seems like I have a firmware problem. I got this phone new off of ebay a few months ago. At least every other day, the phone keeps saying "SD card unexpectedly removed, please insert a new one". It happens when I haven't changed card. I don't even have to touch the phone and I'll see the screen come on and say "sd card unexpectedly removed..." I have googled and I saw others experiencing the same problem. This is one thing that is keeping me from upgrading to a different ROM. I'm worried that if I change roms, maybe the internal problem with manifest during the procedure and brick my phone. Is this a concern that I should have? Or should I proceed with changing ROM's?
My other question is if someone else with this same phone has experienced this problem before, and did the problem go away when the ROM was changed?
Yeah, I just picked up one of these off ebay, and... the pins on the SD card slot are pretty bad, I dunno if that helps exactly but maybe something to check for...
Well I had the same problem.
. I rooted my phone didn't happened again .. but 90% of the time when I rebooted it didn't read any of my apps. Every time .. I got. Rom. Manger .. got clock work recovery and did a backup of my rom .. than I flashed mik cm7 .. never had those problems again ... and didn't. Have the problem were my phone restarted on it's on ...
From My LG Optimus P509 CM7
oh yeah, my phone restarts on it's own too. I forgot to mention, I assumed it could have been a bad connection leading the phone to not read the SD card, then read it, then not read it. It has a cheap looking lock-down mechanism that doesn't look like it would let the phone read the SD card all the time. So I cut a little piece of paper the size of the SD card and stuck it between the lock-down latch door and the card, it didn't fix a thing. So I ruled out a bad connection.
So blackrose, you had the same probs I have now and yours is fixed? I'll look up the mik cm7 rom and install that, are there different versions of the mik cm7 rom? If so, which did you choose?
Check the firmware version on your phone. Older firmwares had that issue, but I believe they were resolved in V10L and newer revisions.
You can go to LG's website and get the download link for the newest f/w version for your phone by putting your IMEI at the end of the address:
csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=INSERT IMEI HERE
You have to use KDZ updater to flash it.
!! disable LG modem in computer device manager !!
make sure you have msxml installed
set type to 3GQCT
set PhoneMode to DIAG
Select the downloaded firmware file
sit back and WAIT..
Ours the stock rom side I have the same phone from tmobile optimus t and have had the same problem with three of these phones (sold to friends over seas thats why so many) I suggest install custom recovery and rom as soon as possible it makes a huge difference in performance and fixes that pRoblem let me if know if you need help you can even pm me

I run linux on my laptop, I used to have my laptop dual booted when I had my hd2 so I could change out my roms but then I sold my hd2, had no use for windows so I deleted the partition. is there a linux version of the updater i need? or can i install the kdz updater through wine? does kdz updater run solid enough in wine so I don't have to worry about bricking it? I'm going to sell this phone for whatever I can get for it on ebay and I want it functional. I'm picking up another hd2 tomorrow for a great price.

i just tried going to the lg webpage you mentioned and I got a weird error. My IMEI is 012408001118364, and it says IMEI SV is 03. this is the exact link that I typed in my browser, I copied it and posted it here when it didn't work.

my phone has gotten worse in the last couple weeks. has anyone tried to see if it's just a faulty SD card? the problem has to do with the sd card, the phone says it's removed when it wasn't. I have an old 2 gig one somewhere that I'll put in it and see what happens. also my version is V10L
what do I need to put a different rom on my optimus t? and would it be running off of the SD card like I had to do with the HD2 or can it just run off of the internal memory?
my phone works perfectly now. I checked for updates and I have the latest update already installed on it, it's what came on it, V10L. So I deleted some apps off of the phone to clear up space. I grabbed a different 2gig SD card, formatted it with the phone, transferred all of my old stuff from it off of the other card that was in it and put it in the phone. Now I have had it running flawlessly for over a week. I don't know if it was the samsung SD card that was in it that was faulty, or if it was doing that because there were too many apps on it. I know some SD cards are junk, I don't know about samsung, the one I put in it is older but it is a kingston. I didn't have to root it or anything. But I still want to so I can delete some of this crap thats on it from when I got it.
So since this phone is linux based, how do I get to the terminal so I can su root or sudo. And what is the root password? I want to control this thing!
So maybe the problem was that I had too little space left on it, or maybe the problem was that the SD card is junk.
I purchased my optimus one yesterday. I did not do anything with the IND_NT.map or license file from the SD card at all. But I can not use the NDrive app. It promts me that I am entitled to download a free map from a list of countries. If I select India it says 'this device isn't authorized to make this operation'. Please help me how to overcome this
Try to install ndrive11. It checks imei for licence check so your purchase will get transfered.

erm if u want to it to work, backup all ur sd data and contacts,
flash custom rom and cipy Ndrive and Drive folders to sd from backup
and install ndrive i posted from apps section
Stock phone? Stock SD Card?
If yes for both and if you're a troll IRL (like me), go to the guy you bought it from and get him to make it work. If he doesn't extract a discount or free upgrade. Raise hue and cry. Shoot video if you can and put it up on YT.
@sanmore- no installing ndrive 11 did not sort out the problem
@ccdreadcc- ok i will try. pls give me info of which custom rom to install exactly and a download link to ur Ndrive app via PM. I will be really grateful
@istoner- I got my phone as a replacement for my LG gt540 at a local service centre. Today I gave my phone to the engineer to get it fixed. but he too failed.
@ccdreadcc- ok..I found ur post @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125403. will try installing this app without custom ROM/kernel once the lg service engineer returns my phone and then share my experience
just flash any custom rom u like,
choice 1: miks cm7
choice 2: andy cm7
choice 3: noejn void forever cm7
choice 4: noejn devoid final froyo
all are well and good
Just perform a factory reset.it will work 100%.

Simple solution
Here i got a simple solution..
If it says that 'this device isn't authorized to make this operation', it means that phone's IMEI no. is not registered on Ndrive's server..
You can do 1 thing..
just go to "ndrive.com/support/technical-support" and fill all the necessary detail and also your phone's model number and IMEI and send it...
Now within 48 hours you will get a conformational mail from Ndrive, that your Imei is now registered..
Enjoy the navigation..
