I NEED HELP ROOTING AND UNLOCKING THE X10a - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay I am an HTC user and the rooting process is pretty much the same across all HTC devices. So when my girlfriend wanted to take her phone to tmobile I tried to root it for her, and now I am lost so can someone solve my problem?

To root you need to use flashtool and click on root will install busybox and xrecovery well that how I rooted mine but im sim free in uk

Yeah that is what I am trying to do also. My girlfriend is making the move from ATT to tmobile so I need the sim freed.

Im afraid cant help with the unlocking you may need to use a website dont do what I seen on another thread on here that was ppl posting there imei numbers for all to see
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App

Well I say for sure rooting will not unlock the network on the x10... So as geordie 34 said, you will need to buy an unlocking code to use with T-mobile...
Hope to help.

LOL yeah I know better than that.

You do know that AT&T and T-Mobile do not use the same frequencies right?
On T-Mobile with her AT&T X10a your girlfriend will only get GSM and Edge (2G) speeds.

Not sure how your networks work in us

But do i have to flash the whole thing or just flash the speedfix? i have speedfix v3.0....
sorry for the noob question

On wb thread it tells you to flash the Rom then the fix you best thing to do is do a back up of your current Rom then flash the fix if anything goes wrong then you will have your back up then you can flash everything if needs be

I think there is an explanation how to do it for "any" rooted rom. Of course it is far from being straightforward... As an android newbie it would take me a lot's of time to get into it, but it might be possible to do for more experienced users.
But the main problem here is still how could Samsung let happen that setting Desktop permanently actually requires hack
Yep, for more experienced users,...
Think not for me,... ;-(

No audio calls problem!!!

So I just ditched my EVO the other day and picked up this bad boy
I have the latest everything prl profile...
I believe I have the latest software from moto ....it ends with MR1
Correct me if Im wrong
Problem. Is when I make or receive phone calls I get no audio what so ever....only fix I have found is rebooting the phone
I have read a little round here. Sounds like im not the only one....I also have another photon as well. From a different store...my girl and I both have one.....hers does the same thing
Sprint told me this was a known issue and the problem is with Motorola software and are waiting for a update
I read somewhere bout a oem software upgrade that u could manually dl and install ...and further read that they already started implementing in a OTA ....my phone says its up to date...am I tight. Do I have the newest software? ??
If I do I have the newest software ....well the problem still happens....a few times a day....super frustrating
Let me know

If you're not familiar with the "lather/rinse/repeat" line....I cannot help you, you are beyond my abilities to provide assistance.

[Q] Rooting a brand new Photon 4g

Hey all. Due to a headphone port problem in my Photon the Sprint store near me is ordering me a new device. Will I be able to root it? I could have sworn a few months ago on this site it said if your photon is a certain software number then you cant root it.
should be able to root..can't unlock bl if at 2.3.5 though
Sent from my MB855 using xda app-developers app
dont update your phone so that u can root and unlock bootloader as u wish..,njoy with mods n all..,
I just rooted a photon with 2.3.5 using this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1819660
QBKing77 also has a video showing the details: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xAYkejI4CE

?? 4.0.4 not sure which one that is
Its ICS, if you go to Santods forum. Infectedrom.com you can find the way there but there's more to it than the all in one. Its a little harder but not much. You do have to make an account to view the forums though, but that's not really a hindrance.

you need to unlock your bootloader before anything, you can do that at htcdev.com
Thanks!! Excellent referral! Just wish I could find a simple link like that for roms...lol

Hello,
That is for the developers edition. You either are using a developers edition on T-Mobile's network or you changed your T-Mobile version to a developers edition at some point.

Hello,
No need to upload it as it can be downloaded right from HTC. Again this is for the developers edition HTC One.

If you are on stock ruu then it shouldn't let you install the developer's edition. Something is glitching but better a glitch than you install a version that isn't for your stock version. It could give you more problems than its worth. If your stock, wait for end of Jan, that's all there is to it.

I am not familiar with RUU. If I install this on a stock rom on HTC One. What would be the end result?
