Is it possible to get 2.1 ECLAIR XPERIA X10 ROM for the x10i,i cant seem to find it anywhere,or is it a simple fact that it definitely hasn't been released yet??thank you for any help
Hi - Couple of things you should bear in mind for the future... Forum rules - you should use the search feature before you post...
The Development thread has loads and loads of info on this subject..
But in short.. no.. not yet.. The dev's have rooted the phone, but I don't think they've yet cracked the bootloader, so no custom rom's yet.
Hey, I have readed for solutions, and downgraded method that there is in this forum is valid for Desire no for Wildfire, my question is.... It will have solution for guys kile me with froyo 2.2 and get root for a new revolked or it will be imposible? Thanks for all, and happy new year
Its unknown yet, and, theres no ETA. You will just have to be patient and wait.
Hello everyone! im new in this forum, and im new about Android too.. im using Xperia X8 with Android Build number 2.1.1.A.0.6
is there a way to get it to 2.2(sinces too many Tuts in the web idk what should i follow tho)? Thanks alot and more power to Xda-developers!
Check the development section there should be lots of guides on how to change your rom by first rooting your phone
If you want just to put 2.2 on your phone, u have to know that all these roms are made by one programer. If you are amature dont even try it for now, read some topics , inform your shelf first. Such roms have bugs and in my opinion are not suitable for amatures...
It is just to hard to do the job that a company such as sonny ericson should have done, and make a rom in your one... These boys realy try hard but the last they need is some amatures asking how to restore their loat data.
On the other hand if you are not amature u can try a rom and feedback to them in order to fix bugs...
you will lose the phone warranty too !
I appreciate your replies, thank you so much, yea im aware that i might lose warranty but it seems i can unroot the phone isnt it? i wanted to try to Root my Xperia X8 (2.1 update-1) but im scared O_O too many Root Guides here so im a bit confused which is true.
Yes you can unroot phone with reinstalling fimware with SEUS or PC Companion. Look in this thread if you want root phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906195
Hi
Thanks for the quick reply! Thank you Mister. oh that's how u unroot, just reinstall , not using Xrecovery thingy?
Do you mean restoring backup with xrecovery? If you restore your backup it will be still rooted
Instant warranty-back:
1: Turn off your phone
2: hold down "back" while you insert cable to pc
3: start SEUS
4: ????
5: Profit!!1!!

*TIA
Hello guys,
I searching the all x10 forum but it is been a really hard time for me finding the proper proceedure to root my phone
I just goot a x10 with the 1.6 android, and Im so used to my magic and its proceedures that as been a really pain to understand the things in this territory.
So what I'm searching for is for the right proceedures to get my x10 fully rooted with recovery and ready for all kinds of roms (at least the new ginger ones (I'm thinking about the ultima rom))
Greetings
First update through seus or pc companion to get 2.3.3 rom. Then follow instruction from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1196808. Just read the whole post before doing anything to make sure you understand all the step. Hope this help.

Hi guys,
bit of a noob here, have came from iphone to android, was quite clued up on iOS dev but not a clue for android, have bought a new dell streak with the stock version of android on.
was just wondering if it would be easier to not upgrade to the dell 2.2 android before rooting. is that correct??
also which is the best root software for the streak.
Thanks for any advice,
Sanders
Considering that the carrier branded and unlocked Streaks upgraded to 2.2.2 some time ago, it's very likely you already have 2.2.2 on the Streak, unless you got one used that still had 1.6 or 2.2 on it. It's worthwhile to do a ROM update if you have anything other than 2.2.2 on the Streak already.
Best way to root is the manual way, since it always works when one-click root solutions can fail. You can find out how to root by reading the links in the reference stickied at the top of the forum.
cheers for the info,
yer it is running 1.6 but unused, just confriming the easiest way around rooting, will have a look at that thread.
thanks again,
