[Q] Xperia X10 2.3 upgrade problem - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have a sony ericsson xperia x10 at&t phone which I unlocked and have rooted, i also upgraded it 2.3.3 from 2.1 successfully. Initially it was good. However, after few weeks it is having system problems. Whenever I am on a call, or using net or camera, the phone gets switched off and a message is shown a ANDROID SYSTEM - POWER OFF. I don't know if i have to downgrade to 2.1 or is it battery related issue. i dont have no clue what to do.
If anyone can suggest me what to do, it would be very helpful. Also please give step by step instructions, if possible. Appreciate it.

Are you rooted and unlocked? do you have a custom recovery. Clear cache and dalvik cache from the recovery.

Need some help with 2.2 update pls

Hi all...
I just got my first Android phone... is an X10i...
I have version 2.1-update1 on it, and i tried 2 custom roms (2.2) with the install from SDcard.
After installing first rom (Froyo_2.2.1_xperia_TripNRaVeR-v1.0.zip) the result you can see it here: 220.ro/documentare/MOV01113/AVtgAccdjh/
After this, i instaled the 2nd rom (FreeX10-beta4.zip + gapps_FreeX10.zip); the result was: it work perfectly but after 30 seconds it was rebooting. it never stops.. the phone start again, and after 30 seconds , again reboot... and so on.
I must mention that the phone is SIM locked, and to work in my network i must unlock it... can this be a problem? if not can any one help me to fix this?
Or can anyone tell me where to find a custom rom that can be flashed with x10flasher? because when i install the rom from SDcard, is loading normally untill 50%, but when it reach 50%, he instantly go to 100%
Some info about my phone:
model: x10i
firmware: 2.1-update1
baseband: 2.1.54
kernel: 2.6.29
Can anyone tell me what is the problem and advice me what to do?
Thanks in advance.

For now you can only flash stock 2.1 roms using the flashtool, everything else you have to use xrecovery.
As far as your phone being sim locked, I really don't think that's related to any of the issues you've mentioned.
Here's what I suggest:
- use the flashtool to flash it back to stock 2.1
- root
- install xrecovery
- try Wolfbreak's custom 2.2 rom from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=945264
the instructions on the first post are kinda confusing but let me know if you have any other questions. Make sure to use the thanks button if any of this helps.
To install custom ROMs, your phone needs to be rooted and then install the ROMs via xrecovery.
Also for Trip's Froyo or Gingerbread ROM, it is preferable to on bb49..

@Lockon Stratos
this rom is working good, is only rom that installs properly and work without reboot, but SDcard is not working, and when i applyed the hotfix, it enter into a reboot loop
@regencyhood
i tried MIUI... same problem... reboot loop
***********************************
i tried again all roms that i have downloaded until now from here, but unsuccessfully
I do not understand why, but ROMs are not installed correctly (i have root and xrecovery installed, i made factory restore, wipe cache, format cache, wipe dalvik cache).
so i think i will stay on 2.1
I was very enthusiastic when i got it, but i see that is not such a great phone with no official update for 2.2, and is low on internal memory (only 465MB data memory and 280MB RAM).

Reason for Reboot on MIUI is because you are on baseband 54 (i.e 2.1.54)....
Recommended baseband is 49, either you flash and change your bb or you can apply a patch... all the necessary help regarding bb is given in the link in my above post...
hope i was helpful
So which one do you want to use trip's froyo or Z's froyo? I hate to say this but I have a feeling it's something you're doing in between installs that could be causing the problem. I say pick one that you want to use/test, flash back to stock 2.1 using je flashtool, root, install xrecovery then flash just one of the custom froyo roms using xrecovery.

Patch BB 54 or rollback BB 52

something like the ROM from TripNRaVeR (Froyo_2.2.1_xperia_TripNRaVeR-v1.0.zip)
sorry for the link from my first post... i hope this is working : youtube.com/watch?v=iV408mrlWqA

Yes, it will work.
Regarding the camera I am using "TripNMiUI FINAL 1.0.63" ROM, and the camera is working a-OK. (Pic and Vid included)
Zoom results in FC for me in the stock and MIUI camera app, because of which I use Vignette....

[Q] Rooted Xperia S (2.3.7) upgrade to rooted 4.0??

UPDATE 21 Oct 2012:
Hi guys, I have good news. As I finally decided to bite the bullet and break the ice by flashing with flashtool from 2.3.7 to 4.0.4 ICS I have no problems anymore now!!
Before flashing I wisely backed up my contacts and apps. And for flashboot mode I UNCHECKED all Wipe data and only checked "no final verification check"
and flashed 4.0.4. Afterwards reboot I discovered that ALLL my data retained, everything including all game saves. Only a little bit personal customization.
To summarize what problems I have solved now:
1. No more freezing during games! and force me to reboot!
2. When reboot no more application NOT found issue!
3. After unchecking all but USB connection in developers option, I have not a single lag and home menu refres issue (my lesson: never check any unneccesary things in developers option)
4. And I feel a little bit less battery consuming.
5.. All with new functions and widgets.
Oh I totally love my Xperia S with 4.0.4 ICS. Thanks for all the time and patience and advise from you guys~~ Xperia all the way!
Cheers!
Hi Guys, I hve some questions regarding my phone, and I hope anyone could give me the right answers.
First what I have is:
- Xperia S (LT26i)
- Android 2.3.7
- Build number: 6.0.A.3.73
- Rooted & unlocked bootloader
1) As I have bought the phone in May 2012, and have rooted it since then.
I know the Gracenote thing (DRM keys) are lost, so that Im not able to use "sens me channel" to downloadl music info
(Track ID does work though). Im not able to restore this function anymore right?...
2) I have the official update notification on the phone for a few months already. As I have many apps and games (like 100+), I never found the courage and confidence to upgrade, because Im afraid I will lose data and game saves after update.
But Im a noob in this; IS it even possible for a ROOTED 2.3.7 to upgrade to a official 4.0 via PCC? or do I need to use Flashtool or something? I really dont know about this..
3) I do have Titanium backup and can backup apps and their saves too. If I CAN upgrade via official way (as Im currently unoffcialy rooted & bootloader unlocked), will I lose my date if done via offcial way? If i CANNOt upgrade via official way (as im root + unlocked), and must use flastool, will I lose date if done via flashtool?
4) Lastly, even I love my phone it as many problems nowadays like: often freezes when playing bigger games like Reckless racing, Radiant Defense (which is not even big).. better said certain games, when playing a long time, the device ofcourse gets hot and will eventually freeze, I can do nothing but only reset and restart the phone by pressing power-button+volume up for a few seconds..
The annoying thing is, my frequency of freezing and restarting is nowdays at least once each day or 2 days. as long as i play games..and sometimes even when browsing my favorite forum website....
and THEN after restart I often, really often have APPLICATION NOT FOUND issue, which means I have to restart again or reload the SD card using "reload SD card APP" which is also really really annoying.
I mean the freezing is the most annoying as it forces me to RESTART and then the application not found appears randomly on my installed apps (mostly only games) AND i have to reinstall (overwrite) the app in order to have the app back.
If I dont need to restart I wont have that problem. My problem here is; do I really need to upgrade to 4.0 to solve these 2 big problems?
Anyone knows about these 2 issues on Gingerbread? ...
I really need help & advise for above things... as I really want to not lose data but to see my 2 freeze & app not found problems is getting more annoying day by day... I really dont know what to do anymore..........:crying:
If you don't wipe data you don't have to worry. To be sure you can flash a ics rom with flashtool unchecking the "wipe data" option. Then, you can use this to root it again
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
or flash a custom kernel.

if you have unlocked BL it will give you an error
so, you have to relock it or flash with flashtool

ok I understand that I would need relock or flash with flashtool.
What im afraid is, will I lose stuff when relocking? will my root apps (titanium backup, market unlocker etc) be not working again until I root again?
Also what will happen if I reflash ith with flash tool? even if I choice UNCHECK wipe stuff, will it not give me other problems like uncompatiblity? I know I have lots of questions but this is really due to no experience and not wanting to lose stuff.
But now I come up with this is due to nowdays my Xperia S running on GB 2.3.7 freezes often during gaming which forces me to REBOOT and after each reboot I mostly get APP not found issue. and to solve that I need to reboot again or reload sD card OR reinstall that app.
This all together makes me go sad and mad...therefore my noob questions .....
has anyone had this before and could help with advise how and what to do ?...

It's a bug, but i guess only on your device. I've never heard of someone others with the same problem.
Try flashing another custom ROM or flash Stock Firmware, that would fix the prob..
To install new updates just install the same way you have flashed your current update. If you don't wanna lose your data then don't do factory reset, just wipe cache and dalvik

[Q] Neo V - My battery doesn't drain..

Hello everyone,
I have a problem with my Neo V and it's very unusual. I will tell my whole day which this issue happened.
I was using a Custom ROM and I don't remember which one I was using. Anyway, one day I couldn't open Settings and I didn't care that much and continued using it that way. When I think that I will be mad at my phone, I made up my mind changing my ROM to PAC-ROM (JB). But in order to change to PAC-ROM, I had to unlock my bootloader. To open bootloader in official way, I type *#*#73...... thing to get the service menu. But nothing happened after I tried it 5-6 times. Maybe it was about ROM or that setting issue. I dont know. I had a backup which was made when I had the stock rom with superuser. So I restore and I could open service menu. It was saying that I could do the unlocking. Then I unlocked bootloader.
Okay, here is the when all started.
Before I tried to install PAC-ROM, i tried another one which was JB again. But I forgot to change the Kernel as well... And when I tried to install the rom, I had an error. That was when I think to install PAC-ROM. I tried that too and I had the same error! Then I realized that I didn't install a JB kernel which I had to. I had a stock ICS kernel. I found a kernel and plug my phone as a mass storage in CWM my computer froze. And then when I tried to unplug my phone from my PC my phone froze too! You know, I wiped everything to install new ROM, but when my CWM closed, I had to install Neo V's Stock Rom and then root, install CWM and a new ROM. But today I figured out that my battery doesn't drain, until my battery is %0. It says it's %0 and then my phone close. I wrote down my whole day in order to get your help guys. I searched but couldn't find a thing about my problem. Oh and there is one more thing. I installed a programme which shows your battery stats and things. The programme says the same as my phone about "battery %" but it gives the temperature and it changes when I used wifi or mobile data. What this problem can be and how can I solve this.
Thanks for your help.
Okey I solved the problem by wiping the battery stats.

Lollipop camera bug

Hello guys,
as some of you may know, there was a bug in which when camera app was started, it appeared only a black screen and the camera buttons. So i've had this problem in months, but in the last 2 weeks, the camera stopped working at all.
I didn't reinstaled the android via SEUS, cause i've waited for lollipop to come, hopping that it will solve the problem.
Today, the update came, i have now android 5.0 but guess what? The camera STILL doesn't works.
So please if any of you had this problem and know how it can be fixed ....
Thank you.
any help anyone? i've tried everything - wiping cache, clearing data, force stop, disableing camera, nothing seems to work. Should i try a repair via seus? Does that helps better than updating to lollipop through the same method? no one seems to know anything else besides clearing app cache. If it helps, any other camera applications, doesn't work
