You have posted in driver related thread,
What is the reason to make a new one?
Sony tab section becomes real trash...
Oh and when you ask for something you should give as much details as you can, starting from your win8 version - x86 or x64..

Might need a warranty repair. Mine did when my phone kept restarting. Think they replaced the motherboard.
Have u tried flashtool from the x10 development section yet? And flash the latest firmware and baseband. If u havent and want to try it, post again i will try to help
Try this first before warranty repair. It will save u money if this works

I'm having the same problem. I believe is something with the sd card. If I use the phone to dial or surf the web there's no problem, but if I start NDrive, or any game that's installed on the sd card, then the phone reboots

Hi Guys ..
I have an X10.. with Model number X10i.
I Bought from USA(having AT&T Provider Contract)
and now I m here in India.
Its Working fine, it is **Unkocked**...
I just want to Upgrade My Phones Firmware Version from 2.1-update1
To
The Newer Version 2.3 gingerbread..
As A Normal SonyEricsson Phone can Get Updated by PC companion..
My Phone Shows that I have a Latest Version..
I can not Update it Through Normal Procedure..
and then i Came to know that Bcoz its AT&T providers Product, I cant Update it NOrmaly by PC Companion..
I Just Want To Update My Phone..
Need help..
What to do and how to do..??
Support Will be appreciated..
Download & install flashtool here: http://androxyde.github.com/Flashtool/
Download a generic 2.3 build here (& put it in the firmware folder): http://www.multiupload.com/JEXUAHAZTL
Open flashtool, click on the flash icon , choose flashmode, select firmware & flash
Post number 2 is the correct device, apart from you will also need to
0. Make sure unknown sources and usb debugging are allowed in
/settings/applications
and
/settings/application/development
1. click on the padlock icon to root.
2. click on the key icon to ask root permissions, allow permissions on the phone.
3. then flash the rom.
thnx but 1 question....!
Thanx guys..
I hv No doubt in that U ppl Rocks..
But is it a proper way , i mean i hv Phone which is Unlocked..

What do you mean by "proper way"? Is it an official way to do it? No. Flashtool method is essentially another pc companion. It does everything pc companion can do and more. The only reason you have/need pc companion is to recognize the phone. That is it. The only problem you will have is a chronic headache from all the lag the stock 2.3.3 FW gives. Remedy that by rooting and installing a custom/complete ROM.
Rooting the X10 device is not necessary, but I highly recommend you do buddy. The X10 stock and when stands alone is a terrible device. but when rooted and applied with a custom ROM, the X10 lives up to many other devices that shouldn't be compared to. Technically, Rooting is not an upgrade. But if we look at the benefits of rooting, well thats a completely different story.
If you have any questions just ask. If I helped, Thanks button is always there bud
This is also my problem. I cant update my x10 to gingerbread. What generic 2.3 build shoud i download? and what is that complete rom?
Better Install a Custom ROM.. eaiser.. Faster.. loads of options

Did someone try to downgrade from chinese stock rooted ics to US honeycomb?
Do you think it's risky?

yes of course, no luck
seems the chinese version of the market HiMarket is not replaced and I don't find a trace of the moded market after reboot, even though Aio says everthing went well...
I also tried copying it myself with root ES explorer, but even that doesn't work. It seems the chinese version lacks the google service framework as well, so I copied and installed it... no luck.
There are so many difference between the chinese and US ICS, I think the only way is to flash a new fm...
or wait until 4.0.4 so that I don't risk a downgrade, unless someone already found a solution to change a rooted chinese stock ICS to a US one ?

yes that's what I'm doing, I changed the region and got the zip (signed-nbx03_001-ota-120803002)
now it's stuck because I need to change vendor prop and decrease the build # I guess.
I'll try that and let you know how this works, what could go wrong anyway ?
worst case I'll end up with US ICS unrooted and will root again with the new method that worked on my chinese 4.0.3 r1a
I'm using Aio 4.0 btw, and disable hack_recovery download from sites.google because the shell could not connect, I don't know why...
I was able to download it through browser and put it locally myself anyway. all the rest if ok until the bad sku #, so vendor prop change should do the trick !
can someone tell me exactly what values to change to be able to downgrade in the prop files (vendor/build) ?
if I mess up those files, do I risk brick my tablet ?

Vendor.prop change incremental to 111104048. default aio incremental, I think. This cant brick tab But the region.zip can, tread with caution. After that AIO should a work with region changer.
Finally a root method that works!

Hello guys
I recently updated my brand new phone with the application Sony suggests through my computer , the problem is that since then the WiFi doesn't work.To be more specific the WiFi button is grey and cannot be switched on, sometimes if I press it , it says activating WiFi and it just stays there and the WiFi doesn't open..
I have attempted several restarts but it didn't help.
I have to mention that recently I installed some options package for the internet that my service provider sent me .
Thank you very much for your time.
Ps:I found so similar threads but in their case the WiFi opens and they can't connect, so they didn't helped..

The latest firmware update available for the Sony Tablet S is Android 4.0.3r5a, which is rootable using Condi's S.onyTablet.S [ALLinONE] Tool. At this time, there is no Jelly Bean update available or planned for the Sony Tablet S. Also, in the future, avoid being rude when asking strangers to do something for you.

You should not use capital letters because it sounds like you're yelling or demanding response
Also there's a lot of post talking about rooting and fw versions but....
1. For rooting use the AIO tool by condi like Cat McGowan said
This tool have the option to root any fw version of the STS
2. About all your data I recommend you make a backup of everything, in my case when I rooted mine my data was intact but as always do this procedure at your own risk
3. About overclocking kernel, we have locked bootloader so there's no way to do that even no custom roms

Before using Condi's AiO tool, make sure you have the ADB drivers installed and working on your computer, and USB debugging enabled on your tablet.
BluechipJ's Automated ADB Driver Installer for Sony Tablet S and P
To enable USB debugging on Sony Tablet S, go into the tablet's Settings > Developer options > and set USB debugging to ON (checked).
