Just connected my x10 to pc and told me I had to update the companion does this mean its getting ready for the Gingerbread update thoughts
No, it doesn't mean that. I think it's just some bugfixes, performance updates etc...
Why don't u update then tell us

Currently my X10a is 1.6 rooted running build R2BA024.
I'm sort of interested in the SE announcement of Gingerbread for the X10. I don't expect Rogers will release it quickly if ever.
What I'd like to do is flash the phone with a generic North American 1.6 ROM. I'd appreciate a link to a version that would work well with the bundle feature of bin4ry's flashtool.
Would I be correct in assuming that if I did that then I should be able to get a generic 2.1 update with SEUS right away and also the Gingerbread generic ROM when it gets released?
I'm thinking that the market should work fine with the generic ROM?
Thanks

why would you ever want to keep 1.6? 2.1 is better in every single way you can imagine. flash the 2.1 rom!

you should just update through SEUS

I wanted to go back to stock for that reason since SEUS didn't see an update for my 1.6 in it's current condition.
Anyhow, after all is said and done I went with X10a_2.1update1_r2.1.A.0.435_Generic. Works great just hoping for a quick release on a generic Gingerbread now.
Thanks to all.
yeah hoping that too, maybe we'll get it like 2 weeks after they start the deploy of 2.3

They don't have the latest but a good point. He should just be able to plug the phone in and run SEUS and get 2.1

hiiii all.... i am new to this forum.
i want to root my xperia x10 and try cyanogen or Miui.. but can any one plz help me giving some information on the following:
-- can we get updates from sony after rooting your phone..????
-- Does the sony block access to their updates when you have rooted the phone???
PLzzz,some one help me ...and give me an answr
Yes, your rooted phone will still be able to receive updates from Sony.
to my surprise, my pc companion can even detect my x10 and says that i've got the latest firmware lol :O)
You can still use SEUS and pc companion with a custom rom too, have had to reflash generic 2.1.1 a few times now lol
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I am guessing this might be coming from someone once it's released, but it's been a while since I played with my phone and I'm not that tech savy on the latest on these as things are constantly moving/changing.
I'm running a 2.2 Custom ROM and would like to upgrade to the stock generic 2.3 GB once it's released and I have no clue as to the best way to do this. So once it's out, if we can get a decent step by step how to, that would be great.
Thank you.
i would say use the flashtool thread in the dev section, flash a world generic rom and the corresponding baseband. don't root it or anything like that.
sign in, then connect to pc companion and see if the update hits.
Flash stock 2.1 firmware
update your x10 thru SE software
ensure your phone is rooted and xrecovery installed then wait for pre-rooted gb update to come out on here. It will be almost certainly simply bea case of flashing kernal and baseband using flashtool and custom update using xrecovery.
i certainly would not recommend flashing your phone back to stock 2.1 roms at this point in time - if you update to stock gingerbread then rooting may become more tricky and you may well have to go back to 2.1 rooted before you can get a rooted gingerbread - we simply dont know what security fixes will be included in the gingerbread update - so we dont know how easy it will be to root it once you have updated to stock 2.3
step 1. wait for the rom to launch
step 2. go to the gingerbread thread and read!!
step 3. read before posting the same question that's been asked thousands of times already!!
Do you guys know 2.3 update is out?

I'm going for this route as well, wait for a flashtools rootable 2.3. But i don't think it will take much long, the x10 gingerbread rom is based on the one SE worked for the Arc and that was rooted pretty quickly, no?
For those still with stock 2.1 i can understand all the excitement, but for me, i've been using a custom rom with basically the same UI and features for a while, I can wait a little longer.
They were only able to root arc/play/neo 2.3.2 they are still working on a way to root 2.3.3 so far no luck.

If you are referring to using an easy one-click method to root, then yes you are correct.
But there are other ways to achieve root on 2.3.3 which involves flashing.

Yeah, I was reading the post 2 above this one swearing & shaking my fists, because I'm running j's 2.3.3 rooted rom right now....2.3.3 can be rooted, it's just gonna be a little while before it's a one-click. That's always how it goes
Now that arc, neo, play & x10 are all gonna be 2.3.3, maybe it'll get the ball rolling a little faster on one-click solutions. We do have the largest Xperia dev community in the X10 section, afterall
We can simply "repair" the phone with SEUS. SEUS will download the last version for your device and install it automatically.

maybe, but only with an unrooted, unbranded generic 2.1 rom SE says to use PCC, which means it will most likely be available for SEUS, too (IIRC, they use the exact same database for the rom updates)
Good info so far. I might sell my phone (or lend it to a friend) and it would obviously sell best with an OEM 2.3 unlocked ROM which is assumingly bug-free for the most part.
So SEUS looks at what is currently on the phone and repairs it to that?

SEUS does the same thing PCC does, but it actually works every time like it should
It reflashes your firmware....and it's saved my ass many, many times If it weren't for SEUS I'd have a bricked phone at least a dozen times over lulz

is this the official stock UK 2.3.3 rom?
check the dev section, everyone
doomlord uploaded a flashable pre-rooted GB, not as easy as one-click-root but it's here
If someone can tell me if it´s there a posibility to change my arc so the Emma recognises it as an LT18, maybe i can download the lt18 firmware.
Thanks
i think it would be the same firm, cause are the same specs only that have a 1.4 procesor, i don't see new features only for the S
It will probaly just be a standard 2.3.4 or whatever it is and we will get that in oct anyways

Hey guys,
I have very recently become the owner of an Xperia Arc obtaining the device as a replacement through my o2 insurance policy for my previous HTC Desire which suffered liquid damage
At present I am relatively happy with my Arc stock however I would love to hear from other users who have flashed roms on their Arc and hear if it is really all that beneficial.
With my old Desire it was a must thing to root it etc because I was stuck running only Froyo and suffered from low internal memory storage.
I look forward to hearing some feedback from you other Arc owners out there!
Regards, DJM.

Hi,
welcome to the club
For me, I really like SE UI, and it looks very stylish, at least for me.
I got only root,and I don't want to unlock BL since it's not needed for me. Now waiting for OTA, to still remain rooted.
And keep it updated new firmware rolled out

Yeah I love the SE UI, I don't have a lot of interest in flashing MIUI. Tried it before on my HTC Desire and it just wasn't for me! If I was to unlock my bootloader it would be to flash tweaked roms which are SE based.
What do you get out of rooting the Arc? The usual overclocking etc?
No chance to overclock as kernel doesnt support it. just underclock and change governors. I am also just rooted with a locked bootloader. However im waiting to receive the new firmware update as I am o2 uk firmware. I am wary of unlocking the bootloader as of the 0% battery issue which has scared me to be honest

What are your talking about?
He needs to unlock the bl and then he can flash kernels with oc up to 2GHz.

I'm with o2 UK also! I feel the same way as you, the 0% battery issue has scared me as well.
What benefits has rooting your device given you?
I assume you are referring to the 2.3.4 firmware update? I'm really excited at the prospect of getting Ice Cream Sandwich which has been announced to be coming to the Arc

I am also still running the .369 firmware, looking forward to getting the new version!
I rooted my Arc last night and removed the bloatware apps, noticed a small difference in performance but nothing major which I'm sure is expected.
P.S. I totally stole your signature's Xperia Arc image and used it in mine to replace my old HTC Desire one
**Edit** 2.3.4 just became available to me via Companion! (4.0.2.A.042)
Presume you rooted using the new zurg method?.. if you want to over clock at any point then you will need to unlock the Bootloader to do it.. the 0% battery issue only came about through people trying to flash old SE ROMs, root with gingerbreak, then OTA upgrade to the latest version...
NOTHING to do with bootloader unlocking.. and actually not a problem now that we have the new Zergrush root method. HERE
