Xperia X10i swap with X10a

Hey Everyone,
I had purchased the Xperia X10i when it first came out. Everything is good but I am starting to regret that it cannot work with my current carrier's 3G, which is AT&T. I want to know if anyone is interested in swapping their X10a with mine.
Just a brief overview of my phone: it is in its perfect form. Phone has never been dropped, no scratch what so ever. The phone came with screen protector like every other X10. The phone has also been in its silicone protective case since day one. I have all the original accessories, documentation and box.
We can work out detail on how to make sure both you and I are getting what we want. BTW, I am located in Southern California, USA.
Willing to look at all interested swappers. Thanks!
Actually you can change the ROM version from x10i ROM to x10a ROM.
I did it once, change my xperia x10a ROM to x10i ROM since the update for x10a hasn't out yet that time, however i forgot how to do it since I lost my phone.
That's awesome news! But do you know if it effectively change the 3G band from x10i which has 900/1700/2100 to x10a that has 850/1900/2100?
I'll do some search. Thanks again.
But for anyone that is still interested, please feel free to PM me.
changing roms from x10i to x10a will NOT change the bands. You will still be stuck at 850/1900/2100. The bands are related to the hardware, not software. And it's a pain to switch it back to the original rom since you're phone wont be recognized by SEUS anymore.
Bummer, changing the ROM would not alternate the 3G band in which the phone is running.
Any body that is currently on AT&T with Xperia X10 and want to switch carrier to TMobile? Then you might want to consider this trade.
Wondering if there is any interested parties? Thanks a lot!!

i had an X10i on AT&T and i simply bought an X10A after a month. 3G is defiantly worth it. You will probably be able to sell the X10i for atleast $400 on Ebay. Especially if more people learn about the phone once it comes out on AT&T and happen to be on T-Mobile and want it. I'm about to sell my X10i soon.

You got a good point there! That was my original intention as well, but thought I might as well try my luck first. Thanks a lot!
But for those who might still be interested in taking a trade, please feel free to PM me. I won't list the phone for auction for another week or so.
Thank!
you know, I'd be real keen, but unfortunately we're just too far away - geographically speaking.

they work on different frequency bands/ bandwidths
X10a has the 800/850/1900/2100 3G band. The bands that AT&T 3G and Roger uses.
X10i has 900 / 1700 / 2100 3G band. You can use this phone on TMobile USA and most Asian and European countries.

Xperia Neo approved with AT&T 3G

http://androidcommunity.com/sony-ericsson-xperia-neo-returns-to-the-fcc-20110328/
According to this article, the Neo has passed the FCC now. It also says that AT&T will pick this phone up. That doesn't really follow that they will carry both the Arc and the Neo, so it's gotta be one or the other. Anybody have any insider information?

It took AT&T to adopt X10 after more than half a year and probably we will see ARC or NEO with att by Oct.
ATT doesn't respond
Rogers doesn't respond
SE US or Canada don't respond either.
Good that we are in age of communication. Thats shame/
It may be that they both, arc and Neo, will be sold through SonyStyle unlocked just like the X10 mini, mini pro and X8. But, since Rogers runs the same bands as AT&T, it may not be clear cut as to which carrier will carry it and which one will not.

[Q] will 3G work if an LT15a rom is dumped to an Lt15i Device ?

im in the usa but the Arc(LT15i) 3G will not work in the usa.
the question is if i buy the LT15i now and dump the LT15a rom on it when it is released , will the 3G work ?
Simply, No.

If I understand your question right, the answer is NO. 3G is hardware dependable and if you don't have it no matter what ROM you put on, it won't work. You need to wait for a LT15a cellphone. Soon, just wait a little bit and you can get one from Rogers in Canada probably on eBay.
thnx
i recall on the x10i that it was flashed with the x10a to get the 3G working on AT&T
and vice versa with the X10a Flashed with X10i to work in international countries.
but you are saying that it is a hardware issue, so now im confused. i sold my x10 and now im with a prehistoric phone waiting on the decision whether to wait for the Arc LT15a or just get the LT15i.
one other thing im not sure if there will be an unlocked LT15a
thanks for the info anyway
Sorry if I shattered your dream but unfortunately it is hardware frequencies that stops it from changing.
I am also waiting for LT15a and I will get Rogers and unlock it on ebay. I bought my X10 when it came out in Canada last year the same way.
Good Luck.
If you are asking if you buy an LT15i will it work on ATT 3G --> NO
If you are asking if you have an LT15a and flash a LT15i ROM on it will it work? --> Probably.
no i basically want to buy an LT15i and flash it with a LT15a to get 3G to work in the USA .
im giving myself a week to see if the LT15a is released

It will NOT work. So do not waste your money. The 3G frequencies are hardware related and not software related. For example, if you have a Comcast set-top box you can't get DirecTV programming even if you dump the DirecTV set-top box software onto the Comcast set-top box. Why is that I hear you wondering? Well, because you need a satellite dish to get DirecTV programming. I hope my point came across.
hi
ok thanks for the info guys . luckly i didnt go ahead and buy the LT15i. iguess i will wait for the LT15a .
Does anybody know when the us unlocked version will be out? Any online stores that have it? Thanks

Not yet. Canada/Rogers will release the phone before the end of this month but locked and you can simply unlock it. no news from the US

I just made a thread about the 3G not working the US for this phone. Unlocking it might be only option. Since it's simple I might run to you for answers when the time comes. Let's all hope soon, because I want this phone and after spending 3 hours shopping for others because I thought this phone just wouldn't work out because of the 3G problems and wifi issues I'm glad to see there's still hope.

I could have SWORE I saw that as well and I remember because I was pretty amazed that they could do that as I always thought that it was hardware depended as well, but I did see that as OP is saying. Color me curious.

i wish it was possible
i would get the LT15i today and just dump the LT15a rom on it. but they have said that it is a hardware thing
Anyone has tried it to chance a LT15i rom to an LT15a rom yet? because I saw on ebay Spain a LOT of less price for the Arc vs ebay USA.
Thanks
That would be nice, wouldn't it? There would also be no need for Sony Ericsson to make an LT15i and an LT15a. They would make just one, and dish out different ROMs for different regions and carriers (T-Mo, hello!).
So, NO! It wont work.

Just want to thank all the Devs.....

As I will soon be ending my contract with Verizon (2 years will be up) and moving to T-Mobile (bought a prototype Xperia PLAY - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2088271)
I will obviously still be here in the Xperia PLAY forum but I would like to take a moment to thank all the Devs who took the time to work on the R800x CDMA Xperia PLAY. After poking around with the new GSM play I bought I can really see just how much more of a pain the a$$ it is to work on the CDMA version when compared to the GSM that 98% of the users here have. So again, Thank you for all your hard work and dedication. You guy have really turn this phone into something great and I would like to personally give my gratitude to everyone.
GSM Devs, as I will be switching to this model I would also like to thank you as well for your efforts. I am amazed at how many more choices there are with GSM and I look forward to tinkering with each ROM.
Thank you everyone for making this forum great making this a place where people can come and learn.

Its actually an R800at (its a AT&T prototype with none of the branding, except software which has been replaced, and it came with an unlocked bootloader (obviouisly for beta testing).
Needless to say I am excited to experience all the goodies that come with a GSM Xperia PLAY! :laugh:

sure. xplay AT & T or t-mobile can be used there.
but only no 4G, afaik depend on the 4G network baseband or something like that,
also make sure u check radio baseband (850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900, etc) of the tmobile or at&t series and in philippines.
how about mine? not R800i but i use R800x. i can use it although no 4G and of course no support/official guarantee from sony ericsson indonesia coz just R800i which is offcial series here.
for example in indonesia, i can use the tmobile and att series but no 4G function. in case if i get the 2 series locked. i can buy code for unlocking it (about 15-20 bucks) but yea no official guarantee from sony/sony ericsson indonesia except that R800i series
It depends on the radio band your carrier use.

Xperia Z for T-mobile, Wind and Mobilicty

Hello guys,
I was lost for a while and figured out that Xperia Z is surely compatible with AWS or 1700/2100mhz frequency.
you must look for C6602 version though.

The C6602 is not ready to ship yet tho, so expect to wait til the end of March til you get it. Otherwise, we all just have to wait til Sony says something about the C6602 model being available.
