  • Help!. I can't turn on my x10!. Y tries to update to GB, and now it's dead. The green light only flashes for less than a second when I trie to turn it on..

  • @Psyche54aig That is strange. Charge the battery and reflash it.

  • Hey I tried the links to the firmwares you posted here, but for some reason they are no longer available for download :(...the link is not working, and I really wanted to flash my phone from 2.1-2.3. Anyway you can help me out man?

  • I can't get access to multiupload can you acquire it for me?

  • Nvm i figured it out, for any others that would have this problem you have to manually enter in your APN in the "Wireless and Network" Settings under "Mobile Networks."

  • The upgrade worked great...the only problem is now it wont access ATT's 3G or 4G at all. Even when i disable my wireless, and run through the start up guide, it wont "Download the internet setting." Has this happened to anyone else? I would like if it i didnt have to pay for a data package that i cant even access lol. Help?

  • Is there anyone who can meet me on teamviewer who has successfully got this to work on the AT&T Sony Xperia 10, and can help me?....PLEASE...if so, please send me an email on my youtube page...I NEED HELP!!!

  • @muzammilrocks007 Thanks! I'm glad it worked.

  • does this work on the x10 mini?

  • @grimsonfart No. Sorry.

  • Hey, how come yours is Android but mine is Firmware? Please reply me ):

  • mate plz how can i put apk apps on the xperia i tried everything and non of them worked

  • Hi i need some help. I have forgeten the passcode of my phone what should i do?

  • please help every ime get the same error sin header not verified"

  • @irshadmirza100 Have you set your phone up for the initial flash?

  • Hi Sopdogg!!

    hey mine is a X10a, so i did everything as you did but with the X10a firmware, but after all this it didn't change to 2.3.3......do u know whats the problem??what do you need PC companion for??

    sorry my bad english

  • @ppjjlop Basically you need PC companion to set up the initial flash. But maybe you can do it without it. Put your phone into flash mode and connect it to your computer. Test to see if your computer is installing the flash drivers or not.

  • hi i have the x10a i'm assuming this will work first off i would like to know if i can just go ahead and install the x10i file and what the diffrnece is also on the link provided i cant find a file that has the exact dimensions of the one you downloaded can you also post a link to that also if your still reading is there a way to have the phone not boot android but boot linix instead (more specificity chromium or pinguyOS?)

  • @misuiki6325 Yes, you can install the X10i version on the X10a. No real differences. I'm not sure if you can install linux only, but you can always check up on XDA Developers if there is. As for a link, check your messages in a bit.

  • @sopdogg thank you for a reply i honestly didn't expect one... and fallowing your guide your the only one that shows to select all the files from the flashing program instead of just the loader

  • @misuiki6325 No problem. I'm always willing to help and I try to reply as fast as I possibly can. Thank you for watching my video. Let me know if you have additional questions. Enjoy the upgrade!

  • i hate this phone it lags in angry birds!

  • @galaxyapps Installing custom kernels and overclocking makes it lag less. SE should have made this phone with 512 ram.

  • This is a "nifty" video. =p

  • @jesscarey411 Thanks!

  • wow. it's laggy on 2.3.3, my xperia play runs much smoother.

  • @GinoZump Yup! As it should on a newer device. Sony Ericsson gimped the X10 with 256 ram + 128 ram dedicated to gaming and an older andreno 200 GPU. Xperia Play has 512 ram with an optimized Adreno 205 GPU. Sony Ericsson decided to cap the frames per second on the X10 to 30 so you will see noticeable "lag", whereas the Play doesn't have those limitations. Those things can be improved with a optimized kernel.

  • My camera keep on closing after I updated it? Do you know how to fix it?

  • @xXB3A5TLEEXx I would try to reflash it. Something might have gone wrong during the flashing process.

  • I updated my X10 to Gingerbread from this video and love it but only one problem my internet connection is not working only Wi-Fi!!! How do I turn on or get my phones internet to work???

  • @DUSTINLEEMILHAM A few things you can do. First go into settings, Sony Ericsson, and let it set it automatically search for your settings. If not, do it manually by going into settings, wireless networks, mobile networks, Access Point Names (APN). Search for your mobile provider's APN settings and enter it manually. Don't forget to save! Let me know if you have more questions. Good Luck!

  • Thanks so much this is awesome. Before, my phone was crap with the 2.1, I thought It was terrible. Now I feel like I have a totally new phone. Nice, Nice, Nice

  • @TheBlizzyBlaine Very nice! I'm glad it worked. If you want it to be a lot better, custom roms and kernels are the way to go. Enjoy the update!

  • hey guy i have a x10a and my databasa is 2.0.49, y can install android 2.3.3?

    

  • @felopx If you have an X10, you can do it (I have an AT&T branded X10a). Can't be installed on a mini or a mini pro. Let me know if you have any other questions.

  • This video is a favorite on Dodoma

  • @jesusgray922 What is dodoma? I tried searching for it but all I found was a city.

  • @jesusgray922 But I'm glad it's a favorite of something! Thanks for letting me know.

  • @3randomers3 With customizations it is better than 2.1. Eclair was always too slow for me so I updated to 2.3 with custom roms and kernels.

  • @deekay88music Did you end up figuring it out? Make sure you set your phone up for the initial flash. Your computer needs to install the flash drivers on your computer. Just install PC companion and check for an update. Also, just in case, go to settings, applications and check usb debugging on your phone. If that doesn't work, restart your computer. Let me know if that works. Also make sure you have the latest java installed on your computer.

  • Hi i installed a custom rom the wrong way and now my phone keeps hanging on the SE logo SE update service doesnt work allways get a notification about allready being up to date or its not possible to do software repair and flashtool gives me this ERROR - (X10flash.java:286) - Error flashing. Aborted after Flashing loader can you help me? I have tried everything i could possible find nothing works (I have a X10 mini pro)

  • @sandermans15 Hi, this won't work for the mini pro, only the X10. Repair your phone via PC companion if you can. If not, find the X10 Mini Pro XDA site and find a ftf bundle to reflash to stock via flashtool. Make sure you have the latest java installed too.

  • where is the flashtool at? on the site i cannot seem to find it

  • @benditguh It's in the first link in the description. Look for: "For all flashtool informations (download links, release notes, FAQ) go to the Flashtool Homepage".

    Click the link that is on the "Flashtool Homepage" and follow the instructions that Androxyde has given. Good Luck!

  • I cant seem to fuckin do this myself damit..

  • @AstonDBS18 What seems to be going on?

  • @sopdogg Sorry about my langauge but i get mad i dont know like the steps seem to not work. i followed this every step by step an still nothing.. blahh.. =/ i hate 2.1

  • @AstonDBS18 No worries about the language...hahaha. What part are you having issues with?

  • Thanks. you are the man. Adobe flash here I come. been waiting for that

  • @cbug79 Thanks! I'm glad it worked!

  • nevermind I turned phone off and back on and network back on

  • @cbug79 Awesome. 

  • After flashing I lost my internet. Phone won't connect to internet at all..I have att

  • @cbug79 Go to setting, Sony Ericsson, Download Settings. If that doesn't work, google AT&T Android APN Settings (or something similar) and manually enter it by going into settings, wireless, mobile networks, APN and enter it in (Don't forget to save).

  • the flash tool can see my phone but when i flash i keep getting

    -INFO - Searching Xperia...

    - ERROR - USB\VID_0FCE%PID_ADDE\5&2CF1E3­7D&0&1

    Help please been trying to update my phone for while now

  • @eddidrift Did you download Sony Ericsson PC Companion to set up your phone for the initial flash? It will install the drivers so that the flash process can work. Also, just in case, go to your phone settings, applications, development and check usb debugging. Hope this helps.

  • @sopdogg yes i did all that but i keep on getting the error

  • @eddidrift Have you tried restarting your computer? Also, restart your phone.

  • @sopdogg will try again tomorrow gotta get ready for work but thanks for the help so far

  • @eddidrift No worries. Let me know if you have other questions.

    Good Luck!

  • @eddidrift I'm an idiot, haha, You have to have your phone off to put it in flash mode. No need to restart your phone. I haven't done this for awhile. Hahha.

  • nvm i found it thanks to xda but thanks man next imma try rooting it

  • @chillinmode With the latest flash tool, it is very easy. You should have no problems rooting it.

  • yo bro great tutorial but i lost my 3g connecting but everything works fine out side of my 3g how can i get my 3g back bro

  • @chillinmode Do you see an H instead of 3G? If so, that is HSPA or 3.5G. If you don't have data at all, go to settings - Sony Ericsson and have it configure your network. If that doesn't work you will have to manually change your APN settings via Settings - Wireless - Mobile networks - APN or Access Point Names. I don't know what network you are on so you will have to google it. It should be easy.

    Good Luck!

  • @sopdogg i saw it for like three seconds then it was gone also

    where can i get the APN i have at&t if that helps

  • @chillinmode I just favorited a video that shows AT&T's apn settings. I think you can go on my page to see it. Or just go to watch?v=QmmNHiFDybo

  • PLEASE I CAN'T FINF THE FTF FORMAT? HOW CAN I CHANGE THE ZIP FORMAT TO THE FTF FORMAT!!!! HEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP

  • @rabierizq If you unzip it, is there a FTF in there?

  • i`ve updated my x10 to 2.3.3 but i can not restore what i backed up on my SD card, how can i restore all my content?

  • @desolateSDG How did you backup your content? Did you use the backup and restore app from SE? If so, there should be a link in the description on how to get that back. Please be more descriptive on your situation.

    Good Luck!

  • @sopdogg yes, i did use the SE Backup and Restore app, and now i downloaded the file from the link in the description, but how do i install it?

  • @desolateSDG Just like a normal apk. Go into setting - Applications - and check the box for unknown sources. Download it with your phone if you can. Otherwise, get a file manager from the market place like ASTRO and find where you downloaded it, and click on it.

  • @sopdogg i`ve done it, thank you for your time and your help :)

  • @desolateSDG No problem. I'm glad it worked. Enjoy!

  • thank you so much

  • @tlaquatao No problem. Enjoy!

  • (xperia neo) i want to downgrade from 4.0.2.A.0.42 to 4.0.1.A.0.283???any suggestion please

  • @mephistophales1990 I would check the Xperia Neo XDA forum for the flash tool files. Download flashtool and go ahead and flash the downgrade file.

  • Hey!! I heard android 2.3.4 ports are available for X10? Is it true? If so can u please make some tutorial videos?

  • @dhanush031 To my knowledge, there are no 2.3.4 roms available. There are a few items available from the 2.3.4 dump that were made compatible with 2.3.3 but it never worked for me. Mainly Facebook inside Xperia version 2. That was a few weeks ago, I have yet to try installing it again. You can find it on XDA and you can flash it via xrecovery. More information on how to do that in my newest video (now old because I haven't updated in awhile).

  • @funnyvideos12321 It can't work for the Mini Pro. Only the X10. Reflash back to stock and check XDA for mini pro roms. X10 roms will not work for the mini pro. Different hardware completely.

  • @funnyvideos12321 Do you have an Xperia X10? If so, there is no way to get it to 2.3.4 officially. The Arc updates won't work on it either. You can get 2.3.4+ if you get a custom rom. Reflash your phone back to 2.3, root, install Xrecovery or CWM and install a rom that is supported.

  • thanks a lot dude. the audio stutter fix, resolves a litlle, well, its better, than so many pauses ... I install the wolf gingerbread official xperia. and its a lot better.

    and cant go back to cyanogenmod 7 , cause got a trouble on procces.acore. i never stops showing. so. i uninstallit and install the "wolf" version.

    nice tutorial

  • @alfredbass No problem. I am glad I could help!

  • is xperia x10 minipro allow to do this?

  • @nabilmacho95 No. Only for the X10. If you want Gingerbread, get CyanogenMod 7. Also, check XDA-Developers Mini Pro Android Development section for other roms that you can install.

  • hei dude works wi-fi ? when i install android 2.3.3

  • @MrThedoubleking100 Yessir, wifi works.

  • I have xperia x10a and i can update 2.3.3 please help my

  • @lekoviceki I have an X10a as well. So yes, you can update it via this method.

  • DEAr ! pls help me i have updated my x10i to 2.3.3 but SD card in not support its unmounted so will u help me .?

  • @TAjout Check your messages in a bit.

  • I tried to flash my phone, but on the flash mode it just keeps on telling me to the steps on flashing like the 1 unplug then, 2 turn off, 3 hold back then plug it back in. the flash just keeps on giving me error and says SEARCHING FOR EXPERIA AND PLEASE INSTALL OR REINSTALL DRIVERS FROM THE DRIVERS FOLDER. my phone is att carrier and I am not sure if it is unlocked. What do I need to do???? thanks.

  • @nayrnigle Did you install PC Companion first and set it up for an initial flash? If so, try a reboot on your computer to see if that works. Make sure you have User Access Controls off (UAC in windows). Also, on your phone go to Settings>Applications>Developm­ent and check USB debugging just in case.

  • Hey buddy! Just wanted to ask if this update came along with Facebook Inside Xperia's feature that allows me to see notifications on my lock screen. Does it? Thanks in advance!

  • @g63pm Yes it does. It is Facebook inside v1. I think V2 is being ported over if not already done.

  • just wanna ask if i can update my docomo x10? openline here in the Philippines?

  • I want to say yes, but I am uncertain about Docomos S0-1B/X10 phones. Try downloading PC companion to see if the gingerbread update is available that way first. If not, I will send you a few links for you to read over. Good Luck!

  • It keeps saying please install or reinstall device drivers from the drivers folder.

    Help?

  • @Tagmannnn Did you install PC Companion first and set it up for an initial flash? If so, try a reboot on your computer to see if that works. Make sure you have User Access Controls off (UAC on windows).

  • @sopdogg Oh, sorry, it fixed itself. I have 2.3.3 and I am lovinggg it.

  • @sopdogg hey I have a x10 and I cannot up date to gingerbread cos on pc companion it says my phone is already up to date even though its not!!. ps I live in the UK

  • @crowyard Yo. Do you have a unlocked version or carrier version? It might be that your carrier hasn't released the Gingerbread update yet. If that is the case, go ahead and update via the method shown in the video. Have fun and good luck!

  • @sopdogg yes my x10 is inlocked....so do i just go ahead with this method or is there anothere way???

  • @crowyard I guess I should ask it this way, is your phone carrier branded or debranded? If it is debranded you should be able to update via PC Companion. If it doesn't allow you to, update via the method shown in the video.

  • Hey dude! i got an issue...

    i do install gingerbread, and noticed that i have issues when play music and videos, its choppy... i donwload again other gingerbread tft, and re install it... and the issue continues, and 3d time I download another GB file from XDA.dev. and same problem...

    Can you help me? orI need to get back toandroid 2.1?

  • @alfredbass You are not alone. That is a bug that is in SE's Gingerbread, for whatever reason there is an audio stutter issue. Not unbearable but when you listen to a lot of music it becomes annoying. Unless SE gives the X10 another update, you will need to root your phone and install the audio stutter fix to get rid of it. My two latest videos can help you get there. Links are all in the description including the fix in my latest video. Good Luck!

  • Question: even after updating yore phone with the custom dom kernel and other zips (fps, xloud, stutter fix , overclocking, etc) do you still find your x10 lagging? I'm lagging I lag much less but it still lags alot and the free ram is typically 60 to 80mbs free after killing apps. Any thoughts?

  • @jaysonhullmedia Yes. The X10 does lag quite a bit but those fixes help make the X10 run smoother. I do think it is due to its lack of ram (256mb/128mb dedicated to gaming) and it can be quite frustrating. What helps for me is that I set my setcpu profile setting to min/max at 1036 or 1152 OC (depending on what your phone can handle) and no underclocking. It seems to work pretty well although battery life is decreased a bit.

  • will this work for x10 mini pro?? pls tell me thanks!!!

  • @p1ckl3steeny No. This is only for the X10. Good news is that the officially supported CyanogenMod7 is available. Check out the CyanogenMod site and/or XDA developers for more information.

  • @sopdogg thanks!

  • Will 2.3.3 x10i work with x10a?

  • @Tagmannnn Yes it will. I have a X10a as well. I think there is a link for the X10a in the forums too. I"ll send you a message if I find it.

  • @sopdogg So what is the differerence between the x10i and x10a version if I use it on the x10a.

  • @Tagmannnn Firmware wise nothing discernable. Most roms you install will be X10i because it's the international version. Hardware wise, you would have less cell service in the Americas because it is lacking some of the US 3G bands that T-Mobile uses.

    X10i = International X10a - Americas

  • no thanks man i give up on this peace of shit sony phone... it never worked right to start with.. sony is just super gay and im ganna bind over and shit on this gay ass phone.... poop!

  • @MARSHMADNESS1000 I'm sorry you are having so many issues. Many people feel the same way about Sony Ericssons. Overall they do their job and work as phones but are hindered by last gen specs so it lags and so forth. You should take a picture of the poop and send it to them as a statement of their products.

  • on pc companion every time it ask to tap memory card connect,, i dont have any where to do so on my phone.. all i have is connect and disconnect,, no media files on anything like that..

  • @MARSHMADNESS1000 You do or do not have a memory card? You have to mount usb storage if you do have one. Pull the notification bar down and connect usb storage and then tap connect.

  • verizon

  • @MARSHMADNESS1000 Check your messages in a bit. The link will lead you to your answers.

  • i cant root this peace of crap ether, when i tried to get the imei # all that comes up is a medi # and it wont work.. and i have 2.3.2

  • @MARSHMADNESS1000 AT&T version or Verizon?

  • when i connect the phone up to the computer and all the phone files come up, there is nothing in the file that says firmware... and on pc companion , the update you phone step by step wont work,, what is media transfer (mtp)? my phone has none of this on it.. r800x

  • @MARSHMADNESS1000 STOP THERE! You already have Gingerbread. It's the Xperia Play right? If so you should be good. I can send you a link to get CyanogenMod7 if you want to start modding your system but you will have to unlock your bootloader and so forth. Or you can just root your phone and get rid of unwanted apps and or allow wireless tethering etc. Let me know.

  • wtf my phone don't have a firmware folder in the files! where do i go from here?

  • @MARSHMADNESS1000 Do you mean that it doesn't have the files in the firmware folder? Did you download the firmware and extract the files into the Flashtool firmware file? You should have done the following:

    1. Download Flashtool 2. Extract/install Flashtool 3. Download the Firmware 4. Extract files to the firmware folder of flashtool 5. Follow the rest of my guide.

  • Sweet it worked the first time! Thanks!

  • only think i want is to save my apps:(

  • I want more videos showing your body

  • So I heard you got the S2, can you post a video about it?

  • can anyone please tell me y my phone cannot b found in flash tool in flash mode?

  • @0obyrnero0 Let's trouble shoot:

    Did you install PC Companion first and set it up for an initial flash? PC Companion will download all the necessary drivers once you connect your phone. If that doesn't work, restart your computer and try again. Also go to settings>applications>developm­­ent and check USB Debugging. Also make sure you have the latest version of Java installed on your computer.

  • I have a xperia x10i and the touchscreen is not responding. Do you know how can i solve this problem?

  • @quiksilverboi97 Unfortunately I do not. I would suggest reflashing your firmware to see if that fixes it. Otherwise you'll either have to send it in for repair which can be quite expensive depending on where you live. Another choice is to try to fix it yourself. There is a digitizer on cnn.cn but I'm not sure if it will fix your problem as there may be other issues. Overall it might just be cheaper to buy a new phone. Good Luck!

  • @quiksilverboi97 Or if your phone is still in warranty, reflash to stock and send it in for repair.

  • i wanna go back fml, shouldn't of done it. where is the backup and restore app??????

  • @ashf114 You want to roll back to 2.1? Just reflash using flashtool with the link in the flashtool thread. Backup and restore app is not included in the 2.3 update but you can find a link with a working backup and restore app in the video description.

  • can this update be on Xperia X10 AT&T??? PLEASE REPLY. THANKSSSSS!

  • @Xninja31 YYEEESSSSIIRRREEE!!!

  • can this update be on Xperia X10 AT&T??? PLEASE REPLY. THANKSSSSS!

  • @Xninja31 Yes it can. I have an AT&T X10 myself.

  • can this update be on Xperia X10 AT&T??? PLEASE REPLY. THANKSSSSSS!

  • @Xninja31 Yup!

  • can this update be on Xperia X10 AT&T??? PLEASE REPLY. THANKSSSSS!

  • I have a X10a, and the X10i software still worked. i love it way better than 2.1

  • Great video!!!!!!!!!! Worked flawlessly. First time flashing...Thanks for showing us how

  • @jdodge82 No problem! Enjoy!

  • i have an error and cant flash the phone can you help me? the program put this error 19/050/2011 03:50:03 - ERROR - Please install or reinstall device drivers from drivers folder

  • @leomtstr Did you install PC Companion first and set it up for an initial flash? PC Companion will download all the necessary drivers once you connect your phone. If that doesn't work, restart your computer and try again. Also go to settings>applications>developm­ent and check USB Debugging. Also make sure you have the latest version of Java installed on your computer.
