Hi,
I got an X10i from UK Vodafone, and upgraded its firmware in India through SEUS, and it was clean installation to R2BA026, but the moment I started using it, every time I use some app the phone switches off. Its very inconsistent.
I tried below with no luck
reinstall
removed some apps
Killed some apps
I worried that many in talk.sonyericsson.com/message/10001 say that its hardware issue, but I dont think so.
Can anyone help with some solutions?
Mod's please move this if this is not the right place to post this.
Have you tried to OTA update your x10? If this won't work you may should root your phone or try to downgrade it to an older firmware!
SE will launch eclair soon, this will also fix phone!!!
I got exactly the same here. Phone reboots in a loop or even crash without a reason. Sometimes it couldn't come up, while activating SIM / phone. After that message appears the phone is still in loop and reboots again.
I am going to downgrade now to 024 firmware. It's driving me crazy...will post if I have luck.
Well I figured out, that the problems we have are a bit more strange as expected. I read that the problem is because of the overheated battery. Once happend, the battery isn't working properly anymore. So only SE Customer Service can help. Today I'm going to a Sony store to explain my problem with the phone. Hope I'll have luck.
I nearly forgot to post the details: http://talk.sonyericsson.com/message/12816#12816
I got the same problem and tried everything to fix it but nothing helped. As soon as mobile switches on it restarts and goes into a boot cycle.
I figured out that the mobile restarts mainly when it needs to read something from the sim card. I swapped my old sim with a new sim and found that the restart problem was solved instantly. I tried again with another bad sim and the restart loop starts again.
Bad sim cards slide into the sim card slot very easily and hence the pins connection are loose which tends to make the mobile unstable while reading or writing from/to sim.
The easy method to solve this problem is by making the sim a little thick by sticking a piece of paper on the back side of sim.
From my personal experience bad sim is main cause of restart cycle.
Try to swap sim cards, if it works let us know.
Thanks
Hi,
Thanks for the details.
I tried both the sim cards, I have GSM Vodafone, and BSNL 3G, both has the problem, very similar.
The same worked earlier with R1XXXX very well.
However, will try the Sim trick with a paper on the back side, which afix the sim tightly.
Thanks,

its not related to sim or firmware
it is not related to sim or software, it might me with some handsets but it is completely a hardware problem...dont believe me use your phone without sim and memory card and play some game or just keep on playing with your phone
it will turn off and you have to remove battery for few seconds otherwise it wont start
this topic is covered on sony site mentioned above and other threads, this is not just happening to me or some of us...its with many of us
changing firmware, sim , memory card tried everything no luck
m using iphone now and miss big x10 screen and better colors
One week ago I sent my phone to SE. I'll get a report with my X10 back. So till now I don't have heard nothing from SE. I'll tell you what's in the report, if I get it back. By now I am playing with my oldschool N80 :-(
Hi I observed one thing weird here.
I have reset the mobile, and when it asked for APN settings, i disabled MMS&data, phone seems to be working little stable, goto check for some time, and try playing games on it.
Thanks,

The MMS and Data settings seem to be the problem.
When I used my old sim which was disabled, it worked fine with everything. When I enable my APN and MMS settings in my new sim and start browsing the net and downloading stuff it restarts there.
I think the problem is somewhat related to internet browsing on mobile.
What app do you use to browse internet on your Xperia?
Please help, have a horrible annoying problem…
Recently upgraded to iphone [to sell]
Put my micro sim in my phone until my normal sim arrived, once I got my normal sim and activated it I found I could longer make calls or send txts. But I can browse the web, very strange.
Currently my signal bar has an exclamation mark next to it, I’ve tried an Orange and T-Mobile sim which work absolutely fine, I have tried other O2 sims but get the same problem.
I’ve also tried flashing using task29, have tried radio’s 2.07.50, 2.10.50 and 2.12.50 and various different roms
Thanks in advance
does the sim still works in the iphone? If not its a sim failure and you should get a new one from your provider
check the small print, your sim probably belongs to jobs corp now, and has deactivated itself and reported your treason directly to the implant in steves head when you took it out of the iphone
Lol going to have to sleep with one eye open...but to answer wilwilwel the micro sim no longer works and the sim im using at the moment works absolutely fine in any other phone
HELP!
I dont know how to get home with out my htc
Hello all!
My HTC 7 Mozart phone is running NextGen custom ROM!
It was all fine except the battery was draining so very fast,like I had to charge atleast twice a day for my phone to be awake only if i text for the whole day!
The problem now is that,I removed my SIM card for some reason and I plugged it back into my phone but it said
"SIM error
The SIM card is missing or invalid.You can still make emergency calls if your mobile operator supports this."
I tired other SIM card belonging to different operators but still the same problem! Has anyone experienced this? Is there any solution to this?
Please help me! Thnx very much!
I have the same issue. I think the sim slot is damaged.
try cleaning the slot with spray and then dry it fully
Hey everyone,
I am an owner of a G3 but I switched my mobile service provider recently. When the new SIM card arrived I switched them but my G3 did not accept / see the new SIM card and there was no possibility to type in my PIN. I ordered a new SIM but the problem remained with the new SIM card. So I tried a lot of other (working) SIM cards from different other service providers but also no luck. So I thought maybe the phone has SIM lock and I tried another SIM card from my old provider but it also did not work.
The weird thing is that when I put in my old SIM card the phone appears to be accepting the SIM card. The PIN prompt appears normally, I can type it in, the phone accepts. There is just no reception which is normal because I switched the service provider. I also tried a factory reset, also no luck. The phone was rooted but I unrooted and resetted it. Is it possible that I broke something because of root?
Other than this problem the phone works perfectly. Has someone an idea or some experience with a similar issue and knows if it is possible that a phone accepts only one SIM card?
I have no idea what the cause of the problem could be and I am really running out of ideas ...
I would be very thankful for any ideas or suggestions!
Thanks,
Patrick
Or did maybe someone have a similar experience with a different phone?
Thanks!

Hi again,
I tried some more things but still nothing helped.
The things I tried were:
- unrooting the phone and factory reset
- reflash radios
- try completely diffrent rom (CM)
Still I have no idea what the cause could be. Maybe the sim card reader is just broken. Just weird that it reads my deactivated sim card.
I would really appreciate it if someone has an idea or some similar experience..
Thanks!
I've got a single SIM LYA-L09 and while I love it, it unfortunately stops being able to read the SIM card multiple times per day, which means I have to restart it and even restarting it doesn't work.
I've tried replacing the actual SIM card and blowing compressed air into the SIM card slot, but the problem still remains.
So, I heard both versions of the phone are actually the same phone and just have different firmware.
If that's true, that might be the answer to my problem.
Is it possible to upgrade to dual SIM and if so, how?
Thanks!
Hey,
did you find a solution?
Thanks
