I dont know much about the Evo, but try the Forum, as there are many guides over there as well as the WIKI, if you dont know where they are, ask me
Let me start by saying that there are other threads on this, I'm aware, but I have yet to find a solution. So I bought a sony ericsson xperia x10a around November, and I'm sick of waiting for a 2.1 update to hit the US, given that it probably never will. I wish to update my phone to android 2.1. Now, I've already rooted it. It is currently unrooted and back to blank slate, but I can root it again easily because I know how now. However, my problem is that to update it, I need to flash it right? So working through flashtools with the firmware .ftf I need/want I come across an interesting roadblock. I need to allow unsecure apps for it to work, apparently. This is a problem because it cannot be done with AT&T brand on the phone. So it looks like I need to debrand it. My question is how? trying to exploit the pccompanion/seus repair function to have it debrand with blob_fs does nto work as the helper redownloads the file and overwrites the changes, so those guides seem out of date. Now, I have read in other threads that you do not need to debrand, just run flashtools, if you dont need to debrand, then how do you allow unsecure apps as flashtools instructs? Do I just ignore that? If I ignore that then wont the apps needed for the firmware not be installed? Please dont don't condescend too much to me, I have read other threads but I cannot find an answer, if its there then I'm just stupid. But I would really like some help or explanations.
EDIT: Firmware is 1.6, Baseband is 1.1.32
I used flashtool tool on my phone when i got it back from the shop and it debranded it. So i can get any app i want. There is another way to debrand but it cost money but flashtool is much easier to use.
U asked some very good questions. I repeat u arent stupid. it took me months of studying these forums before i started the ROM stuff. Let me know if u need help with flashtool.

I have tried flashtool, but I am told to allow apps from unknown sources before continuing. Because I have a branded phone at that moment that is not an option available to me. Do I proceed anyways? Wont that just not put any apps on that I need, like android keyboard?
Hi heres a quick tutorial on what to do. This guy does many videos on flashing and such. He does a tutorial on the flashtool and other videos on how to rootand install important apps like xrecovery. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9_pFOxPJUY
go to that link. It should help you in updating your phone to 2.1. Also if you have any questions i'd be glad to help you. This tutorial and other videos from this guy have shown me everything i needed though.
Sorry I know there are probably a million threads on this but, i couldnt really find a simple one..
I don't really want to install a new UI or rom or w.e because im fine with the classic view.. What i really want is just to root the tablet and get android market so i can get the youtube app, skype ect..
What is the newest and best root for the g tablet and i kind of need step by step instructions, if there is a thread on this that is very easy just give link to that also! thanks
Btw. When you root a phone or tablet.. what really changes about it, before installing a new operating system or anything
A simple search will deliver the answer you are seeking
Are there any who could help me over skype to root my device?
I've already bricked my HTC Desire HD once, but fixed it and i don't want that to happen again..
So if someone could teach me over skype so i can do this alone the next time?
I'd also want a ROM which looks like the HTC Sense 3.0 but have Android 4.2 if thats possible.
I've been wanting Android Revolution HD for a whilr but thats only Android 2.3.5?
Write in my thread if you want to help me,
And i want someone who speak proper english so i understand (no offense! i'm from norway..)

Hey, I didn't want to open a new topic about it, but I'm confused a little bit about rooting my phone, because almost every tutorial I've opened mentions Advanced Ace Hack Kit, which doesn't work anymore...
So I would be really grateful if somebody could just put a link here to a newer tutorial.
I have Android 2.3.5, Sense version 3.0 and I would like to upgrade to Jellybean 4.2
AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU MIGHT INCURE IN THE COURSE OF ROOTING YOUR DEVICE.
I need to know your specs, android version.
I the mean time, you can download UNLOCK ROOT on your PC, you will be prompted to install the drivers of your device when connected via USB. Ensure you are connected to the internet if you do not have the driver at hand. Follow the on screen prompt to complete the driver installation. Then you can launch the unlock root application to complete the rooting process. Please keep me posted.
Hit the thanks button if I helped.
Cheers.

Now my Nooob question how to I do this? I have searched and searched with various ways to do this such as Chevron7 Windows Deployment Tool, does this still work? I don't fancy thou paying (not into werz either) I found windowbreak easy but not for my phone grr! so I need a noobs guide on how to do this.
