hello a quick question
what is the different between R2BA023 and R2BA020
Seems faster, In-call volume seems a little clearer

I didnt find any visual difference. But it seems to be faster and may be the call quality also got better.

Would you be able to post some speed benchmarks of this latest firmware to see how it compares to the 020 version to see if I should root and flash.
Cheers

Hopefully I do it just for testing. But then, Ive decided to stick with the 020 rom as it is more stable and wait for a update/fix for 023.

I'm with proyaz. Given the fact that 025 is on it's way (or at least has been verified of it existence) there's not much point in updating to 023 if you are on 020...for now
Just curious for a benchmark if anyone would be so kind until 025 appears, which may or may not necessarily be better.
R2BA025 Iasn't guranteed!
It could well be a branded version of R2BA020/23.
R2BA023 Is Generic Uk
Could any one please upload the files for the latest R2BA023 firmware ....share the love people !
can someone tell me what is the advantage of rooting when we cant flash for example 2.1 or 2.2 os.
is it just because of some very minor root dependant apps or?
as i dont modify my system files, i dont see any reason to root it before there is the possibility to flash newer os ex 2.2 froyo.
thanks in advance
The advantage is that we can modify system files. Just because you don't do it doesn't mean noone else does.
The ability to tweak the living daylights out of the phone is golden for me.
Oh, it's also a requirement for any work to be done on the bootloader so we'll be able to flash custom images in the future.

If your not bothered about root apps or uninstalling sum apps it is not worth the effort. Im waiting for the bootloader to be hacked.

thanks for response, i guess i will have to wait for boot-loader crack too, since i am not into modifying and stuff like that.
I haven't rooted my phone yet, but it has been debranded to generic UK. I updated via OTA to R2BA020. But R2BA023 isn't out yet? At least not via OTA.
Has anyone tried via SEUS yet?
EDIT: Just tried SEUS - it thought there was an update so did it - but it just installed R2BA020 again :|
No one has the retail R2BA023 firmware to upload?!

Some root apps, remove branded crap, quadrapop, update moxier, etc..
Nothing major yet, it's mostly for development.
What I did to get R2BA023 is do the root process but STOP after the second step so that means I get the update without root

Do u have any carrier applications or any bugs that people find with root ? I am thinking of doing the same since my country seems to be not on the world map for se and don't really want root advantage since I - call me crazy - like all se applications - so I just wasn't the battery performance..

I just got a Rogers SE X10 and I noticed a few problems
1) Call Volume low
2) Lag when using dialpad
3) Screen kinda unresponsive
I know these are known problems but my question is if I root it, what problems will it fix? And what other advantages will rooting give?
Thanks!
Rooting wont fix any of the problems, but updating to the latest firmware may sort out a few issues.
As it shows Root means accessing roots of your phone (software wise) and gives you the ability to change not all but some of the section of the software which SE has implemented into your phone. Ability to delete main file from your phone and add many files which can improve the usability of your phone.
But as Haveer said, you may want to move up and upgrade your firmware which will help with some of the issues you are experiencing.
Update Firmware as in? I tried the update option in my phone but it says I have the latest version. Is there any specific app that can fix these problems?

You didn't tell us what version do you have. Go to settings/about phone and read the build number./ If you want SE to update it for you it will take sometimes to be available in your area. You may want to use the other thread about the builds.
XPERIA X10 Android Development>Decrypted x10 roms R2BA020 is the last one there but root will give you R2BA023. You need to learn how to flash it yourself. Read the instruction

It is, first one out I think. I should have worded my post in your other thread differrently. There is no advantage at present time to rooting other than you can install the latest update 023. Which in turn gives you a more sensitive screen, better battery and faster in general and you can install apps that need root.

And you haven't experienced any battery drainage?
One of the reason some people start coming to forums like here is because the manufacturer doesn't support their product as they should. So here we get ahead of them instantly. Thanks to our awesome developers. Good luck rooting, if you follow the steps right you won't have any issue. And also you can ask question in the right thread.
cheers,
Hi All,
Just saw on my phone X10i that some new update is available..
Is it for MT or something else?
Also can u plz confirm if I will update:
1. I cannot root after that??
2. All installed apps/games will be gonne??
What firmware do you have right now?
If it's the DT update then it won't delete any of your apps or anything. Also people have been able to root the latest firmwares using either SuperOneClick or the flash tool.
By the way, all of these questions have been answered many times already on this forum.

X10 has no multitouch -_-
There was a pinch-to-zoom update during Chinese New Year. And there hasn't been any updates after that. So I have no idea what this current update you claim is all about

just go with the .435 firmware.... i'm also from singapore and that firmware works well with singtel networks.... i assume it should work the same with M1 and starhub....
notice that the sms subsystem is quite flaky.... in a sense that it cant handle a large amount of sms... (like maybe 2000sms) and when my friend sends like 2 or 3 sms to me, the phone just hands for like 10s before being able to display the smses.... kinda very bad....

Z4 Root doesn't work anymore for a.0.24 and follows Try flashtool 0.2.6 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746 It's very easy and no danger. I had the same problem!

Not sure why you were downgraded to .204 though. Use flashtool to get the latest firmware.

from what i know, there are 2 types of X10i in SG.. one of them has been branded by SingTel.. which does not have dual-touch, long sms, and very laggy even if u update it by the SEMC Update Service software.. u have to flash it by an alternate methods which u can find in this forum...

Just been rls and u can get it from kies pda:ke7 / phone:ke4 / csc:kd1 (xeu) downld and installed perfect on me but i dont know if the root is in it or not
PLZ have something that will improve battery
Good news！！！
They really need to release changelogs for these updates
yep i cant reboot the phone by bootloader so the root is gone
Yes, thats why I havent rooted my device yet... I was expecting a number of updates to be rolled out shortly after release. Then to have to root again each time

Nothing wrong with the iPhone. If it weren't for Apple and the iPhone, none of us would be using this phone right now. People seem to get all anti-fanboy about Apple and forget about these little facts
Do I prefer my Android phone? Yes. Do I think the iPhone is crap? Hell no, it was an absolutely phenomenal invention and completely changed the way we use our phones.
Now, can anyone confirm that we can re-root the phone after the upgrade please?
i have to do it all over again but thats ok as long the updates fix the problems
Shouldn't come as a surprise that Kies doesn't let me have this. Where can I download this update so I can update through Odin?
does anybody know if this carrier related or from samsung?

I think it is pretty much the same. I will do the mods and after that i will compare it

Hi Kyrillos13,
Are you going to make a new rom with this firmeware ?
JPQ + Fugumod Ultra
I tested it with fugumod 2.4 ULTRA (I do not mean gay 2.2 BE version what makes phone so laggy), root via superoneclick, ROM looks fast and stable at 1366 MHz - It is too early say more, but looks like better than JPM or JPN ...
Hi Guys - is JPQ safe to flash removing the boot files from the tar? Kyrillos can you test, you're clued up about these things!
