Hey guys
I just got a X10 today and wanted to try out the Dark10 theme and everything went well.
I though i should try the pitch black theme and the install went well at first but then reboot and pc swaid: no device found.
The phone rebooted and just black screen with the sony Ericsson "highlight"
is my new X10 gone already :-( or is there anything i can do.
It doesnt boot up, so it doesnt show on my pc.
regards
"Edit"
Got it fixed weee, thought it was all over ..hehe
Let us know how you did it. It may prove helpful to other users, you may even have discovered an easier way.

We dont need to know it
Just a reflash with SEUS or the flasher from xda and viola it works
We just need to be "carefull" when it even doesnt show up "sony ericsson"

Yeah, a reflash with SEUS did the job.
I wasnt aware of the fact that the reflash was a posibility, because it didnt even boot.
hmm I wonder why it did that :S
guys i've got the same problem but now not even "sony ericsson" logo What should i do?

Do you get a screen at all? Perhaps one with an exclamation mark?

I screwed up my X10 installing themes on it before showed me how important was to whipe cache and everything else before a flash.

From X10 XDA App on Wolfbreak's CM6.1v4 Froyo 2.2.1
nothing happen except green led blinking and a little bit phone vibrate
Your new to your x10 right? Your device can never be broken when its an issue whit software there is always a way to fix it like xrecovery ,seus,flashtool, unless you do physical damage or water damage hope this will make you feel confident about your x10 so dont be scared trying new things
Goodluck.

So after rooting I thought I would try an app that I used on the EVO and has been used on the Captivate called LCD DENSITY CHANGER 3.0. It worked great on those two devices
MUST have ROOT to use! And when you use it with EPIC 4G it will restart your screen to a lovely black screen. Buttons light up and Notification Lights up as well but the screen will stay black. Until Full ROOT with Custom Recovery stay away until fixed
You couldn't factory reset it with recovery?
There's a fix for that in the thread...

Did you guys just try getting rid of the app using adb? Sounds like something worth trying before returning the device!

I have tried that as well before I ended up returning the Phone for an exchange. I have used the APP on a lot of different phones too first time this has happened too. But now I know, shame though since that app rocks
Man, I feel sorry that my app give you all this trouble! Really. It's a hell of a job to make this app safe for every device, rom and root configuration...
Please can you give more insight in what went wrong? Did the boot manager not caused a restart with the old density setting when you got the black screen??
Did you rebooted it yourself directly after getting the black screen or did you wait for a while? (The device will reboot itself after 30 sec. when the user can't give any input )
And what is that about the partial root?
I hope you can give some feedback, because really.... I want this thing to be safe. Thanks.
After setting it to 200 it restarted automatically. When it tried to reboot it loads a black screen with sound bottom buttons light up but the device doesn't respond. I did let it sit the first time because I have tried this on the evo so I knew it would try to auto load the default 240. But nothing. Had to pull battery. After 20 - 30 min later I entered recovery and wiped data and cache but same thing happened when it booted back up.
I really do hope this gets fixed soon. It was one of those apps that I paid for that was worth it!

Thanks for your observations. I have contacted LeshaK and he gave me some great advices. I will look into this, because I really don't want to get users into trouble by trying the app out. On the other side, maybe Epic users have to wait for a full root.
I guess you don't want to be a beta tester Anyone else? Please PM me or leave a message in this thread.

wicked! wish this was out yest morning but considering the phone just came out great progress
The easiest way to fix this was to simply pull the build.prop file from /system
Open the file in notepad and find the pixel density value.
Set it to 240 or 234 if you want to be accurate. It looks best at 240 though.
this app just messed up my phone....i installed in GT-I5801 and still there is no solution i can't even exchange like he did....the same problem black screen wit no effects...what is the easiest way 2 get rid of this bootin' thing.. and it not even changing to normal...and no carrier signals...help me out!!
boot into recovery and install an old nandroid backup
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
How hard is it to change the number in the build.prop file?
Lol don't odin just reflash your rom or yes pull buildb and manuall fix it
It works perfect on my Epic with the Froyo rom. It never worked with any 2.1 rom!

There's a touchscreen fix in the development section. Install the apk there and follow the instructions.
Ok thank u will download now, by the way, does upgrading the firmware get rid of this issue or is it handset related?

In fact it's a feature for better differentiate simple clicks from scrollings, so Samsung will probably have it in all his firmwares, and you'll have to install the fix on every wipe(it isn't permanent).
Well ive tried it and it still feels the same, quite juttery on homescreens??
App drawer and menu is fine its just a prob with the homescreen being juttery.

And also available for the Arc S.
Not sure if it is .587.
They just pushed out .587 a week back. There's no way that would be releasing yet another version.

Yes, some bugs remains, sometime i have only one wifi bar, but wifi still works, video are still choppy. But phone apps and contact opens quick, services list show that i have around 150MB free RAM, and i can play Asphalt 6 So it's a big improvment over the 4.0.4 :good:
Test made with a fresh ARC S 587 stock with locked bootlader and root.
http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/software/phones/xperia-arc-s/
check it
this is the same as .587
Hopefully they will finally fix ics, ive tried every release from sony and EVERY one of them is bugged to f**k

Just updated my arc. Will see how it behaves. First notice phone dialpad opens in less than a sec. Messages same. Video in MX player is choppy only when i activate some of the on screen controls when they hide it is ok. Rest of the testing will be tomm. Still don't know abt skype. On last version skype was just shutting down after some time and after that took long time to start.

Sorry man but i have no idea.. You should get it without any problem because it came directly from sony.
Try restarting your xtz
Had the problem before, if you have CWM installed that will prevent the update.

That is part of the TriFlat theme. It does that. The 4.3 theme engine allows a much bigger and deeper customization than the previous theme engine...

I tried updating but it fails, looks like it's due to vroot which I found dumps a bunch of crop in system. Unfortunately Sony don't use update.zip for ota so can't find out which patch it fails on, and the ota log contains nothing useful.
Anyway, if it's anything like 4.3 on the Z I'd advise you skip it, it's seriously buggy.
