Hello,
Sorry for starting a new thread, but i didnt find the information i'm looking for in another thread.
Recently i've got a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, well i don't kow anything about flashing this phone i've really use a Samsung, but i find it very usefull as a Camera and maybe if it works ok i could give it to a friend or family.
When booting i ve got the SE screen, then the following message:
"Goroh Customized SPL.
Booting Custom Kernel...
Bye!"
After this the XPERIA screen apears an after that one other saying "XPERIA Wolfbreak edition".
I think its rooted because it have super user but i havent tryed to change anything till i'm sure of what i'm doing.:fingers-crossed:
I really want to fix the phone the original owner (my father) told me he stopped using the phone because sometimes it rebbots by itself and some contacts get erased. (i believe this could be a problem of the rom or maybe the memory, not sure).
So i want to test changing the phone ROM and see if it solves the problem, the thing for me is that all the tutorials take for granted a phone without modifications, but this one already is. So i need to know the how to do it and change the ROM for a newer one.
In the specifications tab i have the following:
Model: X10i
Android Version: 2.3.6
Core: 2.6.29-modFXP-DoomKernel-V04b [email protected]))
Cmpilation: RRQ I LOVE BMG
Thanks for the replies,
Any Help is Welcome.
:highfive:

(HDC a9100 is a chinese good quality replica of SGS2 with double 3G sim standby)
If there is a way to make HDC a9100 running any CyanogenMod version, write it here, or if there is already one for that phone
I have been browsing for 3hrs and not found anything yet -.-
It actually already runs CM7 but the items giving acces to the settings and the details have been removed in the most china phones, the only one I know having CM7 settings and all still showing is the Z710 ^^
I'll by trying to get Cm7 fully in original state once my phone arrives
*been using mtk6516 before
thanks for answer, it helped
Did you have any luck with this? I can't find any one who has confirmed a custom rom can be succesfully flashed on. I want all the chinese gone from mine...
I will keep posting over here: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/37450-samsung-galaxy-s2-hdc-a9100-chinese-mtk6573/
And you can root it (see my last comment there), then you can just remove those apps with root explorer.
And the rom it's running is CM7 but it has been quite customized and some apps have been removed, I will be looking into those things.
When I've got everything back to normal CM7 I will relase a update.zip which will remove the chinese apps and restore CM7 to it's original state ^^
Switching it to English made about 90% go English, but about 10% of settings menus still in Chinese. How you you deal with that? I havent used CM7 in about 5 months, so I cant remeber exactly where everything is, plus some has been rearanged.... I will check out your posts at CMforum too.
I will manually translate the remaning chinese parts of the software and create a patch ^^
Also I suggest to install the latest 2.3.4 of the forums link I've given above, installing 2.3.5 is experimental so use with caution.
Also I'm trying atm to get the original CM menu back as it was normally with more options and ofc the themepicker is something I'm working on for sure
Thank you for all of your answers! im really excited about ur idea seahorse!!
Hi there,
I'm just curious if it's also possible to flash to the newer CM9 ?
the phone just come to my attention lately, it looks pretty decent KIRF LOL

There is already a thread about this problem!

It seems that you messed with the phone's software. Did you try to install some custom rom before this problem appeared?
The most common reason for this is that you may have installed a rom for the mini or the LWW which isn't optimized for your phone!
If you find a way to fix it please keep us informed because I have the same problem with my mini as well!

Hi guys.
Totally Noob here.
First of all, i admire to helping ppl here, and many smart and genious hard working gys!
I flashed my x10i (i can swear, it was x10i !!) to 2.3.3, baseband ver.2.1.71,all was ok, till i spoted the phone converted to x10a(!?).
Also i have noticed some gray spot on my pictures, i suppose it's a software problem, what do you think?
And my music getting glitchy while playing on, if moving the phone. All the rest working great:silly:
So., i would like to downgrade to previuos firmware (cant find a healthy mirror link, so if someone could help, i'd appreciate it), but dont remember was it 2.1 or 2.2(
So what do you suggest in my case plz?
p.s.
the phone is still sim locked, is there some software solution here to unlock, cuz cant unlock by code.
thx for all answers!
Hi, maybe ya messed during flashing your rom. If rooted, try check ya buiklprop, see is there any line mentioning "x10a", try change it into "x10i" and reboot phone. Ur rom is official updated or custom? 2.3.3GB music player is wellknown buggy non smooth. Only can be solved if using other music player that supported. And about the link for 2.1 here from MY BUDDY'S thelogic hope helps

no free solution for unlocking your sim.
Also the camera works perfectly in 2.3.3
either reflash the 2.3.3 rom using flashtool or repair using PCC or SEUS.
If music still is glitchy, use some stock based custom roms
I have an xperia X10 mini Pro. now i have a verry stupid question (and i think i posted this on the wrong section, sorry for that my first time on the forum). my question is: will i be able to play games that are not compatibel with my phone ( icon pop quiz,...) if i root? or will it make no difference
and if it will help can sombody like explain in short how to root and what about roms ..
I know there are alot of treads but i want you to like give me advise on what is the best for me?

what are the risico's?
thanks to the ones that are going to help me.
if there is exact the same tread can you send me a link ( i looked for 10 minutes but dident find what i was looking for)
Hey You can have any game in your U20i ,there is only one problem that you have ,that is were you able to play a game in your mini pro! Rooting your x10MP does not delete your sd data (but may your phone data, if you upgrade to another firmware and root, will delete phone data ).
heres the link for rooting- forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=950324
And another thing please go through x10MP section before asking this kind of questions!

Hey, bro!
First of all, there are no stupid questions, weŕe all learning here .
Rooting, in itself, doesnt let you play more Games/Apps.If you want to use more and especially newer apps, you will have to install a Custom ROM on your device, commonly known as flashing. A custom ROM is a is an android operating system that is different from your latest "official"(made by SonyEricsson) OS. Custom ROMs for our device are very practical, because our latest official Android version is 2.1, which doesnt support many apps. Currently, the best working custom ROMs for our Phone are the ones based on 2.3 Gingerbread.
To get the very best out of your Phone, you will have to unlock your bootloader (which is slightly risky) and flash a custom kernel, which is also part of a new Android OS(tutorials you will find in the following link).
If the procedure of unlocking your bootloader is to risky/difficult for you, there is another alternative: to flash a ROM based on your preinstalled("stock") kernel. For this you HAVE to root your phone, which doesnt have any risks and isnt difficult, install xrecovery (a program to install new ROMs) and then flash a "stock kernel based" ROM. Everything else you need to know is in this Links:
All custom ROMs and Tutorials for xrecovery:

For unlocking your bootloader:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462278
PS.: You wont lose any on your sdcard and phone if you just root your Phone. If you flash a new ROM, you will lose the data on your Phone, but not the data on your sdcard.
