ok i have just a small query as to upgrading firmware on my wallaby...
i have ROM version 3.17.03 ENG radio version 4.20.00 protocol version 32s54
is it actually possible to update this, and which would be the best update? i have downloaded the xda developers v1.2, which i would use programme A and active sync i presume(?) but just checkin to see if this would actually work or whether it would bugger everything up lol i have backed the ROm up with OSimage tools and activesync so i think i have covered my bases! Also i am running ezwap v2.5 mms working all that and most wap pages, but when i try to open some pages, i.e mobile.msn.com it comes up with a download box which i click yes on (if i click no it cancels it) and then it comes up with there is no application associated with /temp/ ****** not a valid pocket pc application. its driving me mad, as im unable to check any email or basically sign into anything, and even my DS running opera can do that!!!
cheers for help!
anyone please?
I owned HTCs for years, I know how to read the device info screen. But with the X1 things changed a little, I dont get the hang of it
The X1 offers several version strings which could be the real ROM version, can someone clear up which one it really is? My device lists the following (possibly relevant) strings:
In Device Information, Version tab:
ROM version: 1.02.938.3 is what I know from HTCs to be the ROM version
In Device Information, User Info (translated) tab:
Software-ID: 1213-6499 is a string which can be found on the ROM images provided in this forum, also a descriptor of the version?
In Device Information, still User Info tab:
Software version: R1AA017 is what I know from consumer SonyEricssons to be the ROM/Firmware version string
And to make it worse theres even a User-ID and a User version...
Does anyone know how to stop Activesych from starting whenever it wants.
I have tried the fake server method but still find Activesynch has started itself and sitting in Task Manage.
I want to force Activesynch to open only when I want it to. Anybody know how to achieve this?
Thanks
Ed

....................oh, lol

Hello Guys,
First of all I would like to thank all the guys here for sharing their knowledge, files, making extraordinary tutorials etc. I am a newbie here and also a new owner of X1i which i got in german language. I know how newbie posts may look like so i tried to explore the forum as much as i could and after so many tries (unnatural forces saved the phone from hitting the wall;-) i successfully flashed my Xperia to English language. That was my goal.
I didn't know how to backup my original ROM (no problem about that cause i won't be needing it) but i noted all the original info i could find from it before updating.
Forum is really huge and somtimes its needed to go over 20+ pages at one thread. So please don't mind me (bear with the newbie;-) ) Everything is working fine for me now. I would like to know if my system is up-to-date. Maybe there are newer stuff, English language, to update my phone, rom, operating system, etc. This is my before/after situation.

I was also playing around some more and installed HTC TouchFLO, Manilla.
TouchFLO 3D 1.3.35345.1_1630.38
It is working fine but sometimes when using it, customizing options, just exploring the phone, nothing special, it uses to freeze sometimes. I have to remove the battery to restart it. Do such things happen, i know its not xperia native? Is there maybe a newer port of TouchFLO for Xperia i could use.
Thanks a bunch guys!

There is a new ROM update for Generic UK ROM. Please check link below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475482
Maybe you could try a custom cooked ROM with the newest touch flo such as:
Touch-IT 4.0 b4
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=485624
(based on newest UK ROM)
Bxsteez Touch of Color 2.00 b2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486100
(based on newest NAM ROM)
Both have the landscape touch flo and are really fast roms...
For all available roms plz check:

If you ever need apps or else etc look for an overview right here:

New ROM is available via Sony Update Service now, for those people who were reluctant to update with the ROMs available on xda...
Thank you all guys very much, really appreciated.
With TouchFLO i have now, i got rid of freezes by removing it from today's items and adding touchflo panel.. So far no freezes or anything. Definitely later today i'll give it a go with Touch-IT 4.0b4, looks really great.
@Lokatho, thanks buddy for all these links. I see from your signature you have 4.0b4 running, i bet i runs great. Regarding SPL, it was my main trouble before i could update new rom. After updating it to SPL-0.72.OliNex everything goes smoothly as through butter, no more 0% stops or such and i can update roms easily. I see you have different one, i am not sure if its the same as this one i have. Do i have to update it or just to keep the one i have.
I used my laptop with windows for doing all the updates but i also use a Mac for everyday work. I can confirm that BluePhoneElite 2, for Mac users, is working like a charm with X1.. This phone is really beautiful. I will also give it a try with MissingSync for Mac later, if i can do the syncing with it i'll be more than happy ;-)

Nope, it's the same version. But it's the first version of Hard-SPL for X1, so Hard-SPL v1.0. But when in boot mode it says SPL-0.72.OliNex.
Have been running roms from itje since his Touch-IT 2.2 and love them ever since. But I must say the 4.0 is imho the best!
Thanks a lot, now much more things are clear to me.
I updated to Touch-It v.4 b6 (in the mean time it had become availabe). It is working flawlessly. I had some minor problems, wi-fi droppings, but i found out that my X1 just doesn't get along very well with my MSI router. This weekend i tried it with one of Belkin's 11b-g-n routers and the phone has rock soild wireless connection. So i bet its something related with the compatibility or MSI just sucks. I tried with no wi-fi security, WPA-WPA2/PSK, WEP and it drops all the time and looses connection. With Belkin it works just great with any of the wi-fi security.
As i am brand new with this, a week or so, i was also playing around with making my own rom, based on UK R2AA010. Actually i made very much stripped OS, got rid of most of the things i don't use at all, totally lite version. Rom is fast and there is plenty of free memory. I dont know how hard is to incorporate TouchFLO 3D in it, but also i dont mind installing it separately, as i did it first time when i tried touchflo on xperia. I am not sure what's the latest xperia touchflo port version. I tried Blackstone (with black numbers on home panel, if thats the version) which i dont like. I prefer the variant as in latest touch-it4b6 or the one i had for the first time, TouchFLO 3D 1.3.35345.1_1630.38. It works fine with the panel installed, freezes when in today's items. But when restarting the phone default experia panel is loaded and not touchflo one. Can't figure it out. Can someone put a little light on TouchFLO for me please?
Thanks guys!
