hey guys,
i'll be getting my xperia x10 (india) from service tomorrow or on monday!
i had some queries..!
1. i wanna root my phone..the firmware version was 2.1.A.0.435! previously i had tried with super one click and z4root but none of them worked. now i'm gonna try flash tool.!
2. i want to flash a custom rom so can u guys please suggest a good custom rom with fully working functions and a good battery backup .!
I'm hoping for some quick replies
i'm not very experienced with the xperia x10 forum.! i had been using Optimus One. but now i'll be switching over to X10 !
Flash tool will root any firmware.
All froyo roms have everything working. Gingerbread doesn't have camera working yet. You can try wolfbreak's cm 6.

Maybe because you were on wrong base band! What was your baseband?
Baseband 2.1.54
Firmware Version- 2.1update1

wow 2.3.3 thx
I have some questions
1) What essentially is the difference between Froyo and Gingerbread?
2) Is is just a software upgrade or also a firmware update?
3) Is the procedure same as flashing a firmware?
4) Is 2.3.3 the latest version?
please DEVS give as a root tool for official rom.I think you've allready have it...

I'm not sure for the stabillity of these roms.My X10 with the official rom is awesome.
Actually these ROMs are nothing more than the official ROMs with some SE apps removed and some performance tweaks applied. You will find nothing more stable than this.

Hello Everyone,
I've been reading the "Ultimate Guide to the Huawei U8800" at the Modaco Android Forum, and until know I've been able to root my phone, install the recovery and fix the reversed Camera Bug.
But the fallowing part of the Tutorial talks about Firmware Update, is this really important before installing a Custom Rom ? And, if it is can anyone explain me why ?
Thanks in Advance,
Luis Da Costa
PS: Sorry for my bad English :S...
Well someone here at xda wrote that with the newest firmware you get a baseband-update for some devices (he was not sure I think). I did not apply the newest firmware, maybe it was already installed, at least I did not encounter any problems.
You cannot break anything by applying the newest update from Huawei. So if you want to make sure, go ahead. Just do not stick to the Huawei-ROM. Do yourself a favor and install void, Oxygen oder Miui. I use Oxygen, it is based on Android 2.3.5 which is just very fast and the battery lasts about 2 days. You won't get much support for the Huawei-ROMs and there are some bugs. But there also are bugs with the custom-ROMs, so read the description first.
I would strongly suggest updating to the latest B138/B162 before installing a custom Rom. To my knowledge, a stock Rom installation does the firmware upgrade on the screen/internal modules as well.
Thanks for your help. I just have one question. Since all links from Modaco are down, where can I download the lastest firmware ?
Thanks in Advance,
Luis Da Costa

As long as yours is a U8800 and not U8800H, then you should be just fine.

B138/B162 are the same?
I thought that B162 was newer than B13x versions.
Can you explain please?
Thanks

They are not the same. B13x are generally made for the whole world, except China. Being the home country, China has a dedicated set of Roms - B158, B160, B162 versions.
B138 is as new as B162, they were both released at the same time. I don't like B162, the icons and interface are slightly different.
I would recommend B137/B138, preferably 138 as it has the latest drivers.
Ok, thanks for the quick explanation.

Advise
For those that want to update the firmware of their devices, don't worry (I was very scary indeed :S), the phone will boot, and reboot, and reboot, and reboot .... until you see and Android screen ^^
OH THE CAMERA IS SO FAST COMPARED TO THE ORIGINAL FIRMWARE !!! Thank you ! A lot really
I've used all roms and they work very well (I still prefer Oxygen), but I cannot use them because they need and External SD Card to take picture and listen to Music....
So until there I have no choice that stay with the Original Rom :S...
If only I can help solve the problem...
Here is the latest official firmware from USA, for those who own an LT18a like me

And links for the separate kernel, baseband, and libs

It might work, but to be safe you should stick with arc firmware

The folder link contains the full official firmware (kernel, baseband & everything) that you can flash with flashtool.
The kernel, and baseband files I have linked below are extra for those who just need those files and not the whole thing.
Users who have flashed baseband 77 from papayayoghurt's thread that have an LT18a (and want to stay with the rom they're using and not flash the whole firmware) should flash the baseband and libs from here.
Please sharing, tq
