Hello,
I have a weird problem, I sold my X10 mini pro, but the customer has a weird force close of the phone app...
the rom version is 2.1.1.A.0.6 as it is the latest available with an italian KIT number.
Anyone knows how to solve this?
He already tried to reflash via Pc Companion, and hard reset via settings...
he is allready done hard reset and memory reset and what the phone doing now?
he says that sometimes the phone hangs, and it shows the phone FC, the only way to reboot is to take the battery out. But the rom is the original one
if the phone is stock... 3 things
1. the phone has problem in it electronic cirquits not firmware
2. he maybe try to unlock it or root it or other kernel /rom
3. dont put the battery out just press the menu button and on/off button together to reboot it
tell him to make a reset and let the phone as stock without programms to see... if the phone has stock apps with the latest stock firmware maybe is the (1.) if the phone is stable in stock mode tell him that is some programm make that hang... because i see that on my phone where i had it stock... install apps only from android market and see if it stable.... then continue easily and stable ... not 5 to 5 programms every time....

I don't think he rooted or installed anything, and the phone was working fine when I had it. It's so weird...
if the phone work fine when u had it and is stock and it did not fall down and brake any electronic parts tell him to reset it all everythings programms and start from begginng maybe is a programm... or else he is unlucky guy recycle or fix it to Sony Ericsson... after all i believe that is a programm problem and i say again ... if the truth is that the phone is stock...
IMHO full memory (on-board).
Remove some apps...
Cheers,

I have noticed that now i have updated to 2.1, my phone no longer locks the screen when the power button is short pressed.
is there a way around this as i find it very inconvenient to have to wait for the phone to time out each time i want to put the phone in my pocket.
cheers,
Alan
i had similar problem i dont know why it happened .. but i connected to SEUS , initally i flashed using Global firmware from Binary ..
anyway i connected to SEUS and tried to repair , i mean reinstall the firmware thru SEUS ... dont worry even if ur region is not out .. i mean once u are 2.1 SEUS pulls 2.1 files and installs them irrespective of the region ...
so do a update using SEUS..
i had many problems with Binary GLOBAL firmware, problem might be isolated for me .. but give it a try..
figured out what had caused it...
when i restored my backed up system settings from both SE backup and restore or my backup pro, the power button did not lock the phone.
i just went into settings and did a factory reset and setup everything up manually. now everything works fine.

Does your X10 switch off after it has crossed the 15% battery line?

My dear friend,
You obviously have no clue about the whole system, until you get used to operating system, i would recommend that you dont start flashing just yet. let's get you up to date on the whole thing.
Android is an Operating System it helps your hardware interact with the software, Freex10 and gingerbread are like windows XP and windows 7, the latest version of android is 2.3.2 a.k.a Gingerbread, Freex10 is version 2.2.1.
Considering you dont know anything about flashing, i am assuming that you are using the stock OS supplied either 1.6 (Donut) or if you have updated the OS, 2.1 (Eclair). You can verify by going to settings-> About Phone -> Android Version.
Gapps refers to google apps like maps, voice dialer, google search, market etc.
For the time being what i want you to do is tell me which android version you are using and also how exactly this problem started.
Regards
E

No...it turns off when I open Maps o Wisepilot and try to get position using the GPS....few seconds after the app start running ,it switch off and switch on again...
I have android 2.1 updated.... I have an app named Juicedefender and MYLookOut...I delete memory booster app and Auto killer. The maps app star working rigth wit the GPS for a while but few minutes later the phone switch off again....
Try updating apps of it still does not work try flashing the phone by going to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746 download the flasher and the firmware from http://www.mediafire.com/?sqv6274anzfzn2x
Extract the flasher zip file, open the program X10FlashTool.exe
If the firmware is of the extension .ftf
copy the firmware to the firmwares folder found in the flasher folder
if the firmware is not in the .ftf format
Advanced -> Bundle creation -> select the folder containg the firmware -> enter details required ( Device, Branding, version) -> select all the files present in the folder list (on the left side) and transfer to the firmware content -> click ok
-> click on flash -> select the firmware -> when asked connect the phone in flasher mode and you are good to go.
If you require busybox or root or xrecovery it will be found in the advanced menu.
Now update Maps and try again,
Regards

I was making some test and the problems happen also when I opne GPSTest app. Yesterday I used the SonyEricson Companion Software to repaire the phone (I think is like "reflash the phone"). After that I install superuser, busibox and I rooted my phone. Finally activate the GPS and try to test it using GPSTest app but it works fine for a couple of minutes and after that the phone turned off by itself.... Don´t u think the problem could be the GPS Hardaware instead of software?......By the way , It seems like the problems showed up after I updated my phone fromo android 1.6 to 2.1-updated....
the link you wrote for getting flash and firmware is for xperia X10i but my phone is X10a is there any problem with that? O I need to look for X10a?

There is a possibility that it could be your hardware and since no other user is helping us out, i think its best you reflash using SEUS and DO NOT root the phone and go to a nearby service center and show it to them
Yea the firmware link i gave is for x10i, my bad i thought you had a x10i anyways it doesnt matter because i have heard of users who have installed x10i firmware on x10a anyways for the sake of safety of you mobile, in the flasher website, if you scroll down a bit you will find firmware for the x10a
Regards

Ok I reflash the way you told me...I selected the firmware for x10a ...everything was OK after I reflash the phone until I see that I do not have data conection anymore!!....I am in mexico and I was paying a data conection using EDge and 3G but after the reflash I can not havit both of them!!....now what_
Thank you so much...I fix the data conection problem...I need to restore my system settings backup. Now it seems to work properly incluiding the GPS....I am gonna test it the rest of the day to confirm is 100% ok....Thanks a lot
Always there to help a person in need bro. Take care and if everything is fine, i would recommed that you root the phone and try out all the features possible on the mobile, make it worth your money

Did you go back to 1.6 or 2.1? Just in case that it is a hardware problem, i would suggest that you take the phone to your local dealer and ask for a replacement device.
Better act while you still have warranty.
I will do that....after I reflash the phone , the problem comes out again...Afer a couple of minutes I activate the GPS and opened the Maps, the phone crash, I mean it switch off...
Im gonna ask warranty....regards
mine use to do it but it stoped after the third time
I am facing a very annoying problem: my x10 mini(unrooted) automatically gets restarts.
Some of the days it works fine. But once it gets restarts then it restarts atleast 3-4 times a day. I have tried to reinstall the android firmware but still the problem prevails. I keep the phone memory at 21-22MB level, is the problem because of this( But I want to tell you 1 thing that I bought the phone in november and in feb end my phone was not switching on ,then I went to SE service centre they reinstalled the firmware and the problem was solved. Since then I am facing the problem of rebooting, before that it worked fine. I used to keep the phone memory around 2mb in the initial days of purchasing and it worked fine even in 2mb so I guess low phone memory is not a problem. I rooted my phone in november but when service centre employee reinstalled the firmware then I lost rooting.i.e. Now my phone is unrooted). Can the problem be because of SIM card or SD Card(corrupt files which I am aware of) or it is because of some other reason?
I dont want to go to the service centre because I feel that they will just reinstall the firmware which I already have done. It would be great if you could tell me any solution. If not the solution then a user friendly and so technical language using app which show the log of my phone so that I can figure out what happens in the system. But I really want a solution. Please guys help! Hope you guys would bring all your experience into play and help me.

Well ..people will need some more specific info ..like are you on the latest SE update ? what programs did u install (seems u did install quite a few as ur phone memory is ~22 MB ). Anything you noticed when it reboots ? Like while doing some operation or running something in particular when this reboot happens ?
Why dont you do a fresh flashing of the latest update through SEUS (not PC companion) and then just stick to the stock ROM (without installing anything else) for 7-10 days and see how it behaves ?
You can always take a backup of ur essentials like SMS and contacts (if you are not syncing ur contacts with google ) before you flash using SEUS.
There are ways to check the logs (using logcat ) but not sure how much effective it might be as u might not be in a position to check logs everytime when your phone reboots.
Hope this helps. Really there was very less inputs available for giving any solution.
I am having the latest android firmware. I updated the android firmware by downloading a firmware file avaible on the sony's website, I don't know what it is called but I surely didn't used pc companion for updating. There is no specific app which I am using when it restarts.
I will give any necessary info which will help you to suggest a solution.
Sent from my E10i using XDA App
you cannot just download a firmware from SE site ..it can be done only by two ways one via PC companion and the other by SE Update service. (SEUS)
And yes , it would be better to reflash through SEUS . It does seem that you have installed lots of things ..better forget them now and just use the stock ROM from SE.
Hi,
I am facing a very serious problem with my Xperia X10.

Please let me know what should I do.
hi mate.
First of all you if you need help or favor you would need to put some more information such as:
1st: Tell us whether you are on a stock rom or custom rom.
2nd: is it a rooted or unrooted phone.
3rd: If you are using custom rom then whose rom ur using.
4: Have you done some changes recently in your phone before having this issues.
5. which base band and kernel you are on ( u can check if u go settings and then About phone )
after all this probably someone or all of us will be able to help you.

Hey stanzzz,
Sorry i am a bit tenses, so couldnt provide much info earlier. Here you go with the more detailed reply:
1st: Its a custom rom WB 6.0.S
2nd: it is a rooted phone.
3: I dont remember doing a major change. just installed some apps from market and updated some apps
5. baseband is 2.1.71 and kernel is 2.6.29.
Please let me know if any more information is required..
Please help.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In my opinion you should do a fresh install again. i was on wolf rom a while ago and never had any issues with it. may be do a fresh install.
so 1st format data(backup ur contact or sync with google and backup only your apps(not data) via zemna (free app in market.)
2 nd : format chache, then wipe dalvic cache. do it like 2 or 3 times.
3rd install the rom again. pretty sure you will be fine..
if you still have issues try some other ROM just to see if its Wolf rom or something else. if you are not that fussed abt timescape try "Violence CM7- ZMOD tweaked. i am using it and its super fast with good network ..sorry DONT try violence ROM as its for unlocked BL UNLESS YOU ARE COMFORTABLE.
ru sure ur baseband is 2.1.71?? if its there still try flashing the baseband again !!
first, if you are on stock ROM, you might want to do a Repair thru PC Companion. Do a backup first of the things you need to save (i.e. messages, contacts, etc.).
if you are on a custom ROM, you do the same as well, Repair first thru PC Companion (or SEUS if you like), then root, reinstall xRec (or CWM), then reflash your custom ROM.
I actually had a similar (?) problem with the WB rom. From time to time (I am going to emphasize that this does not happen often at all and only happens if I lose signal for a long period of time without turning my phone to airplane mode and then going back to a place with signal), my phone will lose its connection to my service provider. The signal bar will be strong but if I scroll down the status bar, it'd say "Emergency Call Only". I was unable to dial out or receive calls. The only way I managed to fix this is to take out both the battery and the sim card for a good 5 minutes and then replug eveyrthing in and reboot. If you haven't reflashed yet, you can try that.
But if you reflash WB rom or another rom, I would also suggest 2 things:
1. Back up a working rom immediately so if this happens again, you can use backup
2. See what apps you downloaded off market. Check what you updated as well. Remember not all apps in market are "safe"--some apps can really screw your phone. Some apps also have funny reactions to phones. So test each app after installation to find the problem app.

This problem maybe is easier than you think,this behaviour of the phone its the same when you modify a contact and check the box to send the call to voicemail,you dont even notice the incoming call,but when you see the call logs,call is there,check that first.
Hi, I have a strange problem with my Xerpia Z2..
After flashing a cyanogen mod to test it out.. it`s not possible for me to get a working generic Android system anymore.
The smartphone stuck in a caint of "bootloop" or, if it start android at last, it reboots after a short while automaticly.
The bootloop is like this:
Screen: Shows 10 sec. sony-logo -> than 2 sec. black screen -> than 5 sec. sony-logo -> than it starts from beginning..
The bootloop-lenght varied until it starts finally into android.. sometime it doesn`t come to that point, and it reboots for a very long period (until I get annoyed and shut it down)
I have trying the following things to solve that issue:
- Flashing several stockroms wirh flashtool (D6503_17.1.2.A.0.314_Generic DE.ftf / D6503_23.0.1.A.0.167_Customized DE.ftf)
- trying to reset the hole phone with the xperia "emma" tool
- trying to reset the hole phone with the pc companion software
.. in my opinion, the problem could be find in the bootloader/recovery.. I don`t think it`s a hardware issue, because cyanogen mod is still runs without problems. Maybe some cyanogen remains are still leftover in the bootloader, that don`t work with generic android versions.. that`s what I can imagine. (but i`m not an expert
I don`t get why flashing the phone doesn`t solve the issue., it almost seems that the flash process don`t touch the bootloader, to overwrite it with stock parameters (?) or does not fix that area which is responsible for that issue..
Phone status at this time:
Not root - not unlocked - no backup of TA - DRM Keys (The guy that I bought that phone from, saddly doesn`t do a backup /
Before you flash the stock rom, are you clearing the Dalvik cache?
Whenever I've been through instructions on flashing roms, that always seems to be a step, but I didn't see you mention doing that before flashing.

Hi, I did that.. the 3 checkboxes in Flashtool are always enabled (Wipe: Cache, APPLOG. Data)
