Install the old one first, then make a login
After that, you can install new market without prob.
Try this one. I never do it, but it should work.

I bought my phone to from ME, what i did was flashed my firmware to a generic one that can be found on the development site ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746 ). If you do need to get your phone repaired for some reason just use PC companion to flash it back to the original one, and i think the service center wont void your warranty, i never had a problem with mine yet ( bought it june 2010).

German (Swiss) model... Chinese ROM?

Hello,
I'm a bit at a loss... Just got my X10 mini Pro 2 days ago, and last night used PC Companion to update the software... since then my Y/Z keys are mixed up (QWERTZ/QWERTY), I got a bunch of new Apps for chinese market or channels (channelnewsasia.com or so), and even a chinese soft-keyboard in the menu... so I'm assuming this isn't the ROM I'm supposed to have?
(The X10 mini pro is a Swiss model)
So yeah... I went to the SE page (chose Switzerland), and got me SEUS. Reinstalled the Software, but didn't see any change (except for the loss of my settings/apps of course).
Downloaded PC Companion from the SE page (again Switzerland) - reinstalled it, and chose to repair... still no change.
Would anyone know what I'm doing wrong, or how I can fix this? Its getting annoying, and I also don't trust the mobile with passwords and such, as long as I don't know whats going on. Do I need to send the phone in for repair?
btw... SEUS and PC Companion always had german text during installation/repair...
PS:
After these unsuccessful tries, I also tried to root the mobile, but the drivers don't seem to register correctly, and adb just gives me a device not found.
Infos from the phone:
Firmware version: 1.6
Baseband version: unknown
Kernel version: 2.6.29 [email protected]#1
Build number: 1.1.A.0.8
Arrr! Wrong forum! Could some mod kindly move to the X10 mini forum?
update: Found the original memory card from the x10 mini pro, and reinstalled PC companion from there... repaired... same state...

Missing market app

I apologise if this is in the wrong section. I got my Sony xperia X10i which was unlocked but had Vodafone branding (I’m on o2). I debraned the phone using a program i found online which seamed to work. When i restarted i found that i didn't have the android market app, YouTube app, Yahoo app and I’m not sure if there are any others that i have lost. The base version is 1.1.28 and the build number R2BA024. Will flashing the phone re-install these apps, or will waiting for the 2.1 update cure my issues?
Any help would be gratefully received.
Reflashing will do the trick
I have now sorted the problem. Turns out when i first debranded the phone i flashed the phone to Turkish software. As the phone thought it was turkish no Android market app or YouTube were availiable as Turkey is a country that is not surported by Google.
I re-flashed my phone with some british software and now she's working like a dream.
You can access the secret menu to find the country of origin by pressing menu,back,back,menu,back,menu,menu,back when on your home screen.

[Q] New Software Update Is Available....

Hi all,
Got a message appear on my phone in the info bar today, says a new software update is available.
I've tried to follow it through but it says I must connect to the Sony Ericsson suite on my PC to get the update.
Anyone know what it is?
Ive got X10i FW1.6, Baseband 1.1.25, Kernel 2.6.29-rel with build R2BA020
Bought from Virgin Mobile (who supply them direct from SE factory completely unlocked with no carrier specifics on)
I may try to update when I get home from work tonight but the last time I updated the software from the PC suite it took about an hour and wiped the phone back to basic settings, I only want to do this if its Android 2.1!

I think it's R2BA026, Was news that they were realsed in the U.K and France to debranded phones
Its a good update, do it, forget for now the 2.1, it will stay 1.6, 2.1 will be lauched in 2/3 weeks.
and don't worry about wiping the phone - you won't need to with this update.
you will update to R2BA026

Some apps are missing in my android market (even a free one)

guys need a quick help pls, I do not seems to able to search some apps on my DHD for e.g "imediashare"
while scanning the cr code also do not return the searched app on my market
iMediaShare mobile app for Android :: iMediaShare
but the same is able to be searched on my friend's desire z bought from UK
mine is indian DHD, can anyone who bought their DHD in india try to search this app and scan the cr cde in the link I gave and let me know if u are able to search it pls
and any reason why I am not able to search it...
Got the same problem. Seems that some operator sw versions are not "signed" or registered at Googles database. So some can "see" all apps and some not.
Try to install a free sw version or rom version. Maybe that helps...
what you mean by "free sw version or rom version"
No operator version. try 1.XX.405.X e.g.
mine is an unlocked DHD
What sw do you have on ur DHD?
With ulocked u mean unbranded?
even more frustrating...an app called "mobiesta" which is an indian app, even this is not getting searched in my DHD but same is searched from UK Desire Z
common who can explain this nonsense
I tried to find with my DHD the mentioned apps - with no succes.
But I figured that out before, that not all apps are visible for everyone...
The reason can be that there are different ROM versions and/or the developers has released the app with some country restrictions. E.G. only for Europe, or only for Germany Autria and Switzerland.
Thats why I asked for your ROM Version. If it is a ROM made for a Indian Carrier the DHD goes as an Indian-DHD to the market. The DZ has a UK ROm or a international ROM and is lockes in as a UK or International-DHD and will get other hits when searching the market...
The solution will be either to download the app via the DZ to your PC and install those apps than on your DHD (than you will have no update support) or to flash a UK or international ROM. Same country/provider version like on the mentioned DZ.
mine is indian rom version
can u tell me how to to download the app via the DZ to your PC and install those apps than on your DHD ?
You can try to copy the .apk file and run ist on your dhd in the same folder e.g.
Or try to download it with your pc and to copy it to your dhd...
or go to mobiesta website http://ld2.ciol.com/Gadgets/Applications/Mobiesta/1485/0/102707/Mobiesta.aspx
and follow their instructions...

I wanted to know if I install the app successfully in Desire Z via android market then how can I get its apk from Desire Z..in other words I wanted to know in which location apk is stored for installed applications in system folder ?
Ok...
I ve got no clue where in the DZ file system this .apk file is located.
Maybe you can find this out with a file explorer like astro or so...
sorry no idea...
did u search the DZ?
Have you tried market enabler?

[q] help please!!!!

hi everybody I have tried to root my xperia x8 because i wanted to update the android version to 2.1 , i downloaded the superoneclick 1.5.1 and i did all the steps i've read here but at the end it says "FAILED the device was not rooted" and in my phone it appears the superuser aplication but i can't access to the root explorer because this message appears:"Root explorer has not yet managed to obtain root access.Because of issues with Superuser, this often happens the first time the app is run but is usually fine from then on."
I have no idea of what is happening , i did all the steps:i put my phone in debug mode , then connect the phone and click "root" and it is still not rooted :S
If someone can help i would be very happy , i'm about to become crazy :S
HI
If you have android v1.5 Donut and you want to upgrade too android 2.1 just install PC Companion (Sony Ericson software that you get with the phone in the box) and let the aplication search for any update of firmware for X8.
actually i have 1.6 version i've tried to update it with pc companion but it says that it has the latest version....
Where do You live?
You have tried to update your phone via PC companion?
PC companion>Support zone>start> ... And it says that u have latest software?
Check phone status do You really have 1.6?
I live in Peru
yes i've tried that and i still have the firmware version in 1.6
help me please
You don't need to root your android to do the upgrade.. xD just upgrade with sony ericsson update service, and after that you can root your phone normally using 2.1 firmware..
Although, you need to substituite a file in superoneclick: "thecage.." to "neuter" but rename to the original.. (sorry if i can't explain well, but i'm portuguese and i'm 16.. xD) search on the forum or wait so i can post the zip file already working, because i don't have it on my phone..

He's in peru and it might not be updated there. There's no such thing as world availablity for sony-ericsson - it's different all over.
My best guess for you would be to use the flash from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=962014
There's at least 3 links to it, not sure if the torrent is still working.
It's set as russian CDA number, but you can change that - look on x8 forums for way to change CDA (don't have time to help with that just now )
also LuisDias, as he's from peru he might be able to understand some of your portoguese
Peru? I didn't read that part.. XD anyway, i can speak spanish if he didn't understand portuguese.. xP

You can flash with E15i firmware and then flash X8a baseband that you can find in thread in my signature bellow
...maybe there is a way to update with pc companion like he is in Europe...
And I read about updating from other country on development section.
Easy way it's changing the SI number so it solves it like a workaround, still i'm not sure if it provides his language (i think it does) after that he can even install froyo or ginger eh
There are lot's of tutorials with infos to do it right in dev section, check them out.
well... actually i have the flash tool and i found this firmware "X8 Shakira E15i_2.1.1.A.0.6_generic.ftf" but my xperia has the e15a version if flash it with this firmware what would happen?
you should get android 2.1.... and to your root issues you should set usb on debugging mode and you mustn´t mount sd card just set charge phone instead.
so no matter if mi xperia is e15a and the firmware i would use in the flash tool is e15i
