Hey Devs and users,
Been facing a problem lately, my ray is running on stock 4.0.3 rooted and modded with they system ui mod with the quick panel settings with hansip87's mod and also a few things i did was install the modded gpu driver and also installed and again uninstalled the megabass feature
Anyway I have the habit of switching off my phone and charging it through the wall and i've noticed it doesn't charge like that anymore, it keeps going in and out of the "sony" bootloop, is there any fix for this?
Would really appreciate if someone can fix this, want to be able to switchoff the phone and charge it
EDIT: had it for almost a year, just rooted last week i guess before it was stock and running good

Hmm, I had the same "bug" when I had CWM on stockrom, its something that is wrongely coded with the offline charging.

So is there any solution for this?
I think you have done this.
and you did not read through the comments
the solution? repair via SUS
I have the same problem as you have now, but i can live with it because my phone performs better even on ICS.

oh now I get it, we're talking about rooting methods for ICS, am I right?
seems like we are on the same page but I used the one by asertyio. That "apparently" fixed my stuttering HD video recording
slower charging? yes, a bit. but that's because the phone is on while charging but I reached 3 days with sub-normal use
solved?
hi, sadly speaking that i have the exact problem, this problem emerged only after i install recovery (CWM) by nAa via the SE Tweak Installer v1.8. i do made a nandroid backup, would it be solved if i restore it? yet, if i repair it, back to stock rom, i still need to root and install CWM to restore data, will this problem still persist? i had read the SE forum from the link given above but i still can't figure out the exact method to handle it.
actually it doesnt cause much problem only im worrying that one day i have to charge after switch off since the battery might drained out ...

from what I know, it must be repaired to fix the charging problem... although I don't want to use that method because like you said, I'll be back to where I've started and had to reinstall them all over again

Just got a Sony Ericsson X10 and it has Android 1.6. I want to upgrade to the latest version of android and want to enable features like multi touch.. How do i upgrade my phone? I dont know anything about android and most of the posts here have just confused me
Hi - and welcome..
Go to the Sony Ericsson website and download and install SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service) to your PC..
Fire that up and follow the onscreen instructions (carefully)..
That will get you upto the latest version of the firmware for your phone..
It may NOT be the latest available firmware though depending on whether your phone is customised by a specific carrier/ network?
If it doesn't upgrade you then look settings and about phone then tell us the country and customisation info in there..
Good luck..
If you're feeling brave you can root it too.. and do a load of other stuff.. (took me a while to build up the courage to get into all that side of it.. but was worth it in the end, cos phone performance can be improved dramatically)!

Greets alamode, congrats on your new X10, and welcome to xda.
First off, it's great to hear that you have at least tried to find a place to start with your Android, and I know it can be rather daunting, as well as time consuming.
- If you're only interested in official Sony Ericsson (SE) Firmwares then you can just simply connect your phone to your computer after having installed PC companion on it
and follow the instructions. This should give you the latest official rendition of Android for the X10 which is 2.1 and includes dual touch.
- If however you wish Custom Firmwares which go well beyond anything that Sony could ever offer than I would recommend after having updated through PC Companion
(above) the next step is to 'Root' your X10 which allows you greater access and control over your device and the ability to 'Flash' (install) the many custom Themes, Apps, and ofcourse Firmwares(ROM)s

Thanks for the quick reply guys !..
Well yeah i heard that rooting/flashing your phone opens up a whole new world for you so im definately interested in that. i've heard Sony ericsson wont upgrade X10 to latest versions of android? Can we still update them after rooting/flashing our device?
Anyways ill update my device first from Sony ericsson then.. After that i'll have to root my device? Since i dont know much about rooting/flashing can someone just guide me as to what that is and what it does? Whats the difference between rooting and flashing?
And thanks guys you lot are helpful !

Um No...
Trying to update but keep getting this : unable to install or start phone software update components
Try doing a repair first then try the upgrade..
For rooting.. go to this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906248 download Superoneclick to your pc and run it from there..
Rooting will give you access to the system files so if you start rooting around in there deleting things then it can be dangerous - but you can always reflash/ repair using SEUS.
Rooting will also give you the opportunity to install custom ROMS which you'll find on the Dev sub-forum.
Would also recommend that you install JIT once rooted, as this gives a big performance boost. You'll find that on these x10 forums too.
Alright.. This is so frustrating. Been trying to root my phone all night but not really able to get anywhere.. Here's what i did..
First i finally upgraded to 2.1.. I used another PC and somehow it didnt give me the error i was getting earlier at the other PC. Not sure what was the problem there.
After upgrading to 2.1 i decided to root. First i used the SuperOneClick file to root my phone. After rooting, I installed BusyBox and then kept installing xRecovery but with no luck. xRecovery would just not install !!! I coped the apk file and ran the install from the phone, I got the icon but after getting the icon when it comes to the installing part it just freezes and after a while i get an error which gives me 2 options, Either to force close or to wait. I tried the other method too, the pushing method using X10ModTool and that didnt work either. After lots of tries and after getting extremely frustrated i uninstalled the apps and tried to start fresh.. I unrooted my phone using SuperOneClick and decided to root using z4root. I got the icon in the menu for z4root and i clicked on permanent root.. My phone restarts but i dont see the SuperUser icon anywhere.. If i try to install BusyBox it keeps on saying that its trying to get information..
So, So extremely frustrating !
Oh and i forgot to mention that after upgrading to 2.1, my Phone seems to have become slower while swishing between screens..
Which build number version do you have as the Superoneclick is for 2.1.A.0.435 and 2.0.2.A.0.24.
2.1.A.0.435
Im just not able to get root access ! Ive tried X10 Flash Tool, Ive tried SuperOneClick, Ive tried another software as well.. I just cant seem to get the root access..
I Installed Root checker and everytime after i root i check and it says that you do not have root access.. :S
help !

Install xRecovery and then you can even upgrade your phone to 2.2 there are some good ROMS available on this forum, you can check this -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=617
Thanks. Yeah i have xrecovery installed as well.
What is basically a ROM? From my understanding its a customized firmware? If so, Which ones the best at the moment? I cannot compromise on functionality (as in i dont want that i cannot use bluetooth/camera/wifi or some other feature because of the rom). So basically i just want a stable rom in which i dont have any limitations. Also what is the advantage of using another rom anyway?
Thanks !
Okay.. ran a few of those optimizations and stuff and the phone is running a bit better. Can you guys tell me what is a good Benchmark score for Stock 2.1 on x10? im getting 33.4 MFLOPS right now.. is that alright?
I still am experiencing a little stutter in the menus, so i installed LauncherPro and that seems to have taken care of it.. I dont understand why cant i get the stutter to go away in the original home screen?
Lastly, Another problem ive been having.. My mobile is connected via USB but instead of it charging up, It is very very slowly losing charge. It went from 95% to 89% in around 45-60 minutes. Whats that all about?

For me the best 2.1 ROM so far is bluesparks, it is very fast and stable. Everything works in this ROM.
As for a 2.2 ROM, i just love wolfbreak's CM6.1.3 v4.3. Everything works except for the camcorder. For getting the camcorder to work you can download video illusion from the market. The quality wont be as good though. However this ROM is just too good. Too fast and stable with good animations.

Yeah, that is the 2.2 ROM I was talking about. Make sure you install the correct one depending on your baseband.
In order to keep everything, make a backup of your apps using titanium backup. You can then restore your apps after installing this ROM. Thats what I did.
Wolfbreak has given another way here:

Hi all,
I have an xu and I've been wondering.. am I the only one who suffers from a slow working device?
It was actually working great until the new ics build update (6.1.1.B.1.54). I'm really a newbie so i don't think i shud mess up with my phone but i obviously considered wiping it since i hav many apps installed. I failed to root it (after many tries) with the new version so I have extra apps that i cant even delete, some of them working in the background. And that's why, i believe, my phone isnt working as smooth as before.
It's really giving me a hard time doing simple actions such as phone calls or chatting in whatsapp(i entered the "Apps->running" in Settings and it showed that i have 10mb of free ram) ... many things as basic as these take too much time and its kind of annoying. Is there a way to make my device faster w/o wiping my data? is my problem really caused by the firmware?
I hope u can answer my questions, and when u answer please take into account the fact that i don't know much
thx in advance!
(P.S. i bought my phone about 8 months ago - it's not old or something.)
I doubt you use all of the apps. Uninstall those you don't use.

Please explain a little further .... you tried rooting the b.54 firmware directly using Flashtool ? If so , it's not gonna work ..... you need to flash the stock b.10 kernel first , Root your phone with that kernel , let it boot up,then reflash the stock .54 kernel =) .... give it a try and post the results ...
@ Toon and Bhargva
I really aprreciate ur ideas and ill consider doing them but wiping my data is my last resort. And i think that if i'll flash anything it'll be the 2.3.7 GB and it will (hopefully) be much smoother.
However, I think that the repair thing might rly help so perhaps ill give it a shot and see if it gets better.
Thx again for giving me these ideas I believe they will suffice if there isn't a way to repair my phone without wiping my data.
More ideas are welcome

still waiting on 4G from Three and just realised i don't have an LTE option in mobile networks. think i might be on too old a version
Depends on what ftf you flashed to get 532. If it was [nut]'s one then I think it was based of my ftf so a non lte 6802. [Nut]'s rom is based of a 6833 ftf so will have lte

well that went screwy. bootloop. flashed straight to 290 ftf which works and i have LTE but i can't root it. grr

Bootloop but everything works? Wut? Is it working or not? Can't you root? Is that the issue?

bootloop on flashing to 290 (NUTs guide) so went to 290 direct to recover but root didn't work.
now went back to 532 but that won't even pickup any cell connection at all.
i'm ready to throw this thing against the wall at the minute.

binarys app didn't work for root so got it via vroot again. now to figure out how to get to a newer rom with room that can have working cell data
Ah, i get it.
my IMEI is blank now somehow. hmm
ok, flashed it back to 290, unlocked bootloader again, used the all in 1 tool and now that seems to have stuck.
have a 4g option, root and can download on 3g at the moment. if i can just restore my apps then the last 5 and a bit hours won't have been in vain

I'm having same problem since then , maybe because of overcharging or maybe because I had some battery monitoring apps installed. so from a year or so my phone cant stay up for more than 10mins and im living through it, at first i had no idea how to fix it but when i checked sony forum i got to know it can be repaired by SUS/SOny pc companion. I know all the steps about installing ics because i have done it by myself after buying this phone.but now i cant because i have slow internet it will take forever to download it and there is no Sony service center in my city. I searched about cyanogenmod and I really feel like trying it on my phone but im scared because I haven't played with the ROM thing ever so i may brick the phone and then blame the developers. I can download all the files required for cyanogenmod overnight on my phone and transfer them to laptop and do the further steps. but the problem is , what if my phone turns off during installation process? will it get bricked? and will it even solve the battery issue?
ok i cant post links over here i was just posting sony forum's thread.my phone's battery has problems it drops from 100% to 0% from 90% to 0% , just at any point, i cant use my phone without charger being plugged in

I see. So are you on official stock ICS right now? or not yet? I don't get how you need to install ics by yourself, as aren't xperia sola's shipped with ics installed already? Anyways, try one of the ff:
A. Recalibrate your battery stats (search a battery calibrate app in the play store. I think it requires root.)
B. Try a new battery
C. If you can, try doing a factory reset to see if it's an app's fault or a system service or something. Or maybe try removing apps that keep running in the background. I don't think flashing cyanogen will help much if in your stock rom the problem already exists.
D. Or if it's not a software problem or a battery problem, then maybe it's a phone hardware problem. I had a neo V that had a short. So battery life was cut. battery always gets eaten, even when I turn the phone off! Maybe you could try going to a cellphone repair store not necessarily a sony center if your warranty period is already over
Hope this helps

C. If you can, try doing a factory reset to see if it's an app's fault or a system service or something. Or maybe try removing apps that keep running in the background. I don't think flashing cyanogen will help much if in your stock rom the problem already exists.
D. Or if it's not a software problem or a battery problem, then maybe it's a phone hardware problem. I had a neo V that had a short. So battery life was cut. battery always gets eaten, even when I turn the phone off! Maybe you could try going to a cellphone repair store not necessarily a sony center if your warranty period is already over
Hope this helps

There's is absolutely no risk in the process of rooting. It's what you do after rooting. You can also try eroot or shume root genius. I believe it can work with xperia sola too. Go do it!!

i tried eroot but it didn't work on my xperia sola build number 6.1.1.B.1.54 , neither binary's method worked.
should i try another method? flashing 6.1.1.B.1.10 > using binary's app > flashing 6.1.1.B.1.54 again
but from where should i download flashtool? ive never done this before

Yup! That's quite common and guides for that are easy to find.
Also, before you do the kernel change, have you tried http://www.shuame.com/en/root/ ?
Btw for eroot, shuame, flash tool, and binary's root app to work, drivers are needed.
For drivers, you can find a driver installer within flash tool. Or you could use the drivers provided by sony pc companion. So don't expect any of them to work if you haven't installed working drivers.

any one should work. only can tell, by trial and error.
So your options and fallbacks:
1. your link from sony's website (it says for GB... you're on ICS already right? idrk if this one should work well)
2. sony pc companion provided drivers (recommmended IMO)
3. shuame root genius provided drivers (you should try the others first and this is your last resort)
4. flashtool provided drivers (I also recommend this)
5. PdaNet (really really last resort. not that' it's bad or anything. I just like sticking to officially provided drivers for starters)

I've run out of ideas now.. Maybe flashing a different baseband may help. Note this is a blind guess.. I dont know if it will help or not. I just know baseband does affect battery life. I have never done this myself so I don't know how risky it can be

aww you have already helped me alot. i think reinstalling the official stock rom is the last solution, i wasnt able to do it till now because there is no way to download it on phone, ill need to download it on my laptop which can take up a whole day, i have slow internet :/ but today i found this
http://d-h.st/wg1
on divaksh's post, so should i download it on my phone and transfer it to my laptop and flash it via flashtool, will it work? and it's the official stock rom right? i can just put it on download and sleep, it will be ready by the time i get up, see this thread by nabeel he also recommends to install fresh ROM

Just be sure that the Rom you are about to download is legitimately stock Rom. As I don't know where you got that download link. I am not from the sola forum so I don't recognize the username
It is best to download from a laptop/desktop as phone download managers often make uncommon file types into unusable files. U could go to a computer shop or try downloading it from a friend's house. Then flash it yourself on your laptop

Hi folks. Bought mine note 4 few days ago. Now i got issues with it - it is randomly reboot on incoming call. I personaly think this may be related to OTA update ive installed. Any ideas how to fix it?
Cheers

Factory reset and not installing anything seems to sort this out. I think its related to some app ive installed, sadly i dont know which

its most likely the update process itself. Don't worry. Apps (without root) aren't supposed to cause to cause random reboots.
Sometimes old settings files and stuff from the ROM before the update can conflict with the updated ROM and cause bootloops and yeah the only way to remove those files is a factory wipe.
Its not your fault. Don't worry.
In 8.2.18 china stable rom this bug fixed.
Okay, so about week ago my phone got replaced(volume buttons broken). New one i have is 8.1.15 global. All was fine until today. Issue got back. I will update to 8.2.5 and see if it gets any better but im a bit concerned about what i heard about 8.2.5 global(battery charging issue for example). Anyone can confrim this?
No charging issues here on 8.2.5. No battery drain. I recommend update to 8.2.5
thanks for the reply, as soon as i insta
Thx for the reply. As soon as i install this update i will infor if it helpes or not.
Update didn't fixed this but factory reset after update did(at least for now). I wonder what is causes this? Some bug hidden in settings on 8.1.15 that makes conflict with incoming/outgoing calls? Anybody have any ideas?
Issue got back, this is very f**king annoying. I regret buying this phone... Anyone can help? I am on 8.2.5

Backup your data, use Mi flash to reflash firmware , that will leave it like in factory state, it repartition and reformat phone in the way. Many are recommending the MM beta 8.2.7.0.
I'm currently on 8.2.2.0 very good, highly recommended but do your homework and do a lot of research before downgrading or flashing in general. I think YouTube might be your friend in this case.

Issue is getting back over and over again, tried everything(even complete flash to latest available official rom with repartition)
All methods work for a while then issue is getting back after approx 2 weeks, i dont know what causes this, i am afraid that warranty won't cover this cause this is clearly software problem built deep into ROM, and first thing they do after they got in on desk in service is factory reset - this solves the problem for a while, and so on, till the end of the time... Maybe i should try some other ROM than that piece of sh** MIUi? All i want is good performance and stability - what rom will suit my needs best? My device is redmi note 4 snapdragon 3gb/32gb
