Xperia X10 Sim and Clock Problem

Hi all,
Hope you can help.
My X10 is fantastic BUT.....the clock has stopped updating itself and only works by manually adjusting the time and not having it set to 'automatic network-provided values'.
Could this be related to my problem I had last week? I was updating my security and was locked out of my phone, now each time I switch my mobile on I have to enter the PUK Code!
Very frustrating I cannot figure it out,my internet setting are default and turned on, I have a 3G signal...etc...can anyone help?
Many thanks
JP

Holy ....
Did you even think about using the forum search engine?
Example:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=38033592
Both topics have been discussed a few times...
@Mods: PLEASE close....

Hi McKebapp,
Thanks for your replay, sorry a late reply been out all day.
I did use the search engine and read the earlier posts however didn't feel I have obtained the answer I require.
Some suggest it is the network provider, debranding mobile, using task killer, none of which apply to me. It seems the only option or solution is to manually set the time?
I too have contacted Sony for support but no reply.
I have also searched for an answer to why my mobile is Sim PUK Locked each time I resart it?
Any help is appreciated.
JP

O.k., then I won't be that mean.
Could you please note some specs of your phone?
Whats the exact firmware version?
Do you make use of a taskkiller or not?
To you PUK problem: Please put you SIM card into another phone to check out if its a problem of the SIM itself...

Thanks McKebapp,
Glad Im not in trouble I do appreciate the help.
Mobile Info...
Model: X10i
BaseBand: 1.0.14
Kernal: 2.6.29-rel [email protected]#2
Build No: R1FA014
Firmware version: 1.6
As for task killer, I have no evidence of this or a simlar software on the mobile applications. Packages I have installed only include games, Swype & application installer)
I inserted the sim into my LG Viewty and it required the PUK to access the phone.
Thanks
JP

O.k. .14 is the oldest offical Firmware. Search the forum or xperiax10.net for the debranding tutorial and whip that thing atleast to .16 or directly to. 21 if there really is no task manager or killer or so running.
To your PUK: Talk to your provider, what is to do...

Hey about clock problem, i had the same problem & i reinstalled firmaware using SEUS & it helped. My firmaware is R1FB001 now. Check, may be you can also get latest firmaware
About sim, it seems you've problem with your sim card. You can get a new one from your carrier i think

I have this problem after unbranding my phone. If I use the automatic time feature it will be about 1 hour behind real time.
Setting up the time manually keep the time correct though, but I hope they do fix the issue with the 'May' update.

Hi Mckebapp,
Thanks for the help. I will look to upgrade the firmware as you hve noted.
Regards
JP

Hey thanks for the help,
Where do I download the R1FB001 firmware and do I have to debrand first?

what about this upgrade??

Hi,
there's a new upgrade for orange tattoos but i can't download it. Someone can test it and confirm what all people think??
htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=292&cat=2&dl_id=948
Sorry my english

Just for Orange branded mobiles...nothing new...

Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general

Any Orange Tattoo users out there willing to share this ROM?

the link is
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=948&news_id=653

But we need the S\N from one of the Orange Branded Tattoo's. You can't download it otherwise.

Ok... just to show that there is no problem sending the s/n.
If yoy try HT99PLG01xxx with xxxx = 0-9 and play a little with
numbers you can find a lot of compinations where the result is
"Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device."
but the s/n is for tattoo. Just one from orange give as how the
pattern look like.
segway

I don't want someone's S\N but at least someone from the uk download it and put it on megaupload or rapidshare.

Maybe its difficult for someone to upload it to some server...
To give us a patttern is just 1 minute job...
seg

HT99PLG01xxx is only 999 phones... im sure there is more in uk

Please Help Need to find DEV firmware for X10 prototype

Hello,
Sorry for disturbing but I really need a firmware pack for a prototype X10.
I received it for testing, and it seems someone flashed a generic stock firmware on it.
The result - a beautiful x10 with no network access, it can not register to any network provider.
If anyone has such a firmware, please PM me.
Thank you all

Maybe you need to enter the network setting (aka APN)? If that is not the problem then go here.

no, that is not the case.
Thephone is a prototype, and it can not use the network at all with shiped rom - meaning no voice at all - it acts as if it was in "airplane mode".
Thank you for your opinion, anyway

Hello Agarthian,
what SI (CDF) does the prototype have (Label below the battery)?

Thank you

Hi again,
I´ve flashed such a prototype (exactly the same type/data as yours) with a DE/CH generic software version (CDF/SI: 1235-7836). Only limitation of the prototype board is that Bluetooth is not implemented and speaker is weak.
Good luck - Nonixnarrez

Is there any way you could give me that specific firmware? I searched for it but i was unable to find it.
Would be most grateful if you could upload the file somewhere and PM me the download link.
Thanks in advance

this is a russian 2.1 version but it is for dev phones, im pritty sure u can work it out

Thank you, flashed this firmware but it seems that the problem was not caused by the firmware after all.
The phone still asks for "sim network unlock pin" - the phone is not network locked, being a prototype. The other X10's we received are just fine, this one just refuses to use any sim card.
Any other ideas? I'm running out of them.

Hello Agarthian,
I'm sitting here looking at the lovely X10i prototype that a major-manager at SE gave me some time back. It irritates me hugely not to be able to upgrade it to 2.1 and so I was wondering if this is what You have done/are attempting? If so, have You been successful?
Cheers/M

Hi.
I have 2.1 on it, but this huge problem about not being able to use any SIM card in it. I really don't know if it originally came with 2.1, because someone else had it for testing before me, and I have no info about what happened to it so far.
Thanks

Well my phone, with a higher SI-number than Your's (if that has any relevance to age) was certainly delivered with the 1.6 it is still running. So probably someone has done a manual upgrade of some sort on the phone to get it to 2.1. Have You spoken with SE support? I had a X10 Mini Pro that they actually took pity on and upgraded for me. It probably helped that I live in Stockholm and had an SE lab here close-by... No such service-mindednes this time round, though....
Thanks/M

[Q] U8180 Rom for New Zealand?

Okay, so I bought the Huawei X1 phone, which is a great little phone.
But, it wasn't long before I started to tinker with it, and in the process I lost the stock Telecom rom and ended up having to flash with an Aussie version.
The problem I'm having though, is that nearly all roms I've found so far will not register properly on the network, and as far as I found out, it's because these all came from 900mhz providers and not the 850mhz like XT.
So heres what I would like somone to do f they are keen enough...
Use SuperOneClick to root their phone.
Install RootToolBox.
Flash with recovery-RA-u8160-v2.3 (you may need a file manager like ES file manager)
Power off then on holding both power button and volume up until recovery menu comes up.
Perform a nand backup of boot, system, and data and then...
Please please please upload the files somewhere for me!
Thanks.
Or if anyone has the U8180 Telecom New Zealand rom, can you please upload?
I've tried getting it from wiki.modaco.com Huawei_Firmware_U8180
But none of the links work, or I can't figure out how to get them working.

You've got the wrong forum mate...This forum section is for U8800 - X5 and what you've got is Huawei Ideos X1 - U8180.

Yeah I know, but for some reason I can't find the right forum?
Able to point me in right direction?

You owe me a beer for this
http://androidz.jimdo.com/roms-x1-u8180/roms-u8180-x1-gaga/#.Tlrayl34K08

Not really mate, those roms are the reason my phone is now stuck on the 900mhz version baseband and not the 850mhz version like I need for telecom.
I'm desperate for the NZ telecom version!

Ups, sorry mate, wasn't aware that NZ is 850mhz.

Can you not change the baseband in *#*#4636#*#* menu?

You are confused, the baseband has nothing to do with the 3G frequency, you cannot change a frequency because it is in the hardware not software.
My question is: did it worked before the update? (im assuming that you are talking about 3G frequency bands)
Sent from my U8800Pro using XDA App

Oh I guess I am confused?
Yes it did work before the update.
And no I don't see an option to change anything in the menu.
How would I go about repairing this?

Maybe contact Huawei NZ? via http://huaweimobile.co.nz

I tried that yesterday.
Got some angry little asian man who wanted to know how I flashed the phone and was no help at all
Noticed before that the phone model isn't actually U8180, but rather U8180-7...
I'm guessing there may be a hardware change for NZ?
Can anybody point me to more info on basebands and whatnot?
I don't really understand it all, I was under the impression that baseband=operating frequencies?

Why don't you take it back to Telecom shop and see if they can flash it back? I doubt you'll have much luck on this forum as it's for a totally different phone that runs on only 2D and Vodafone in NZ

you'd be fine if the Huawei links weren't broken, all the links I've tried for multiple models are broken. Keep an eye on them they might come right soon.

Flashed it with U8150 firmware for a laugh, going back to shop today :S

hey there -
I've got the U8180-7 NZ Telecom version if you want - uploading it now to mediafire and will post it in a bit.
Will you return the favor ? I need to purchase a couple of these phones in NZ and have them shipped out to me. But haven't found a way to do that yet.. nobody seems to want to ship overseas or even have DHL pick on my expense from their shop..

firmware problem

i have a galaxy s which i flashed to remove t-moble branding, now not sure why but i can't get wifi working so want to go back to stock firmware. the problem is which is the correct version for me.
my phone is galaxy s gt-i9000 and was originally locked to to t-mobile UK. i'm looking on the stock firmware and odin guide but i haven't got a clue which one is suitable. i've also got a message in kies saying that 'your device does not support software upgrading via kies'.
please can someone advise me how to get the phone working correctly again? don't care if i have to go back to t-mobile branding as look as it works with wifi.

Hi Rincal...
first question.. did you have your galaxys unlocked to make it sim free by a shop or market seller.. if you havent.. this will cause problems, so make sure you get that done.. its about £15.
2nd) The latest stock firmware is 2.3.6.. the xda team have Eu stock ROM threads.. look in "development", but if you cant find it.. use this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1431596 - although i think there will be a newer version out now.. in the PIT folder, use PIT-512.
Here is a full abc flash guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1139050
Follow it to the letter, this is how I learned.. even though Ive had no problems, you flash your sgs rom at your own risk.. make sure you read it through first before you flash anything and always backup your data 1st.
Please note: This is not my work.. please thank and respect the xda teams named in the threads.
If anyone reading this thread can give better guides or links, please point the way
Good luck

hi NightOrchid
i used a market app called galaxy s unlock to unlock it myself. it was working find after that, the problems started after rooting and flashing.
i'll try your suggestions and let you know the outcome. i've already tried flashing with a few firmwares but always have the wifi problems. should say that apart from wifi and kies the rest of the phone seems to work ok with other firmwares.
