[Q] **Urgent** Need a favour - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am facing a very serious problem with my Xperia X10.
Since yesterday, I am not able to get any calls from anywhere. the notification doesnt even show up. but when i check in the log, the number is present, and when i call that person to confirm, he says that when he had called me, the call got disconnected after 1 ring. i dont see any call notification on my X10i.
Please let me know what should I do.

hi mate.
First of all you if you need help or favor you would need to put some more information such as:
1st: Tell us whether you are on a stock rom or custom rom.
2nd: is it a rooted or unrooted phone.
3rd: If you are using custom rom then whose rom ur using.
4: Have you done some changes recently in your phone before having this issues.
5. which base band and kernel you are on ( u can check if u go settings and then About phone )
after all this probably someone or all of us will be able to help you.

Hey stanzzz,
Sorry i am a bit tenses, so couldnt provide much info earlier. Here you go with the more detailed reply:
1st: Its a custom rom WB 6.0.S
2nd: it is a rooted phone.
3: I dont remember doing a major change. just installed some apps from market and updated some apps
5. baseband is 2.1.71 and kernel is 2.6.29.
Please let me know if any more information is required..
Please help.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In my opinion you should do a fresh install again. i was on wolf rom a while ago and never had any issues with it. may be do a fresh install.
so 1st format data(backup ur contact or sync with google and backup only your apps(not data) via zemna (free app in market.)
2 nd : format chache, then wipe dalvic cache. do it like 2 or 3 times.
3rd install the rom again. pretty sure you will be fine..
if you still have issues try some other ROM just to see if its Wolf rom or something else. if you are not that fussed abt timescape try "Violence CM7- ZMOD tweaked. i am using it and its super fast with good network ..sorry DONT try violence ROM as its for unlocked BL UNLESS YOU ARE COMFORTABLE.

ru sure ur baseband is 2.1.71?? if its there still try flashing the baseband again !!

first, if you are on stock ROM, you might want to do a Repair thru PC Companion. Do a backup first of the things you need to save (i.e. messages, contacts, etc.).
if you are on a custom ROM, you do the same as well, Repair first thru PC Companion (or SEUS if you like), then root, reinstall xRec (or CWM), then reflash your custom ROM.

I actually had a similar (?) problem with the WB rom. From time to time (I am going to emphasize that this does not happen often at all and only happens if I lose signal for a long period of time without turning my phone to airplane mode and then going back to a place with signal), my phone will lose its connection to my service provider. The signal bar will be strong but if I scroll down the status bar, it'd say "Emergency Call Only". I was unable to dial out or receive calls. The only way I managed to fix this is to take out both the battery and the sim card for a good 5 minutes and then replug eveyrthing in and reboot. If you haven't reflashed yet, you can try that.
But if you reflash WB rom or another rom, I would also suggest 2 things:
1. Back up a working rom immediately so if this happens again, you can use backup
2. See what apps you downloaded off market. Check what you updated as well. Remember not all apps in market are "safe"--some apps can really screw your phone. Some apps also have funny reactions to phones. So test each app after installation to find the problem app.

This problem maybe is easier than you think,this behaviour of the phone its the same when you modify a contact and check the box to send the call to voicemail,you dont even notice the incoming call,but when you see the call logs,call is there,check that first.

My dear friend,
You obviously have no clue about the whole system, until you get used to operating system, i would recommend that you dont start flashing just yet. let's get you up to date on the whole thing.
Android is an Operating System it helps your hardware interact with the software, Freex10 and gingerbread are like windows XP and windows 7, the latest version of android is 2.3.2 a.k.a Gingerbread, Freex10 is version 2.2.1.
Considering you dont know anything about flashing, i am assuming that you are using the stock OS supplied either 1.6 (Donut) or if you have updated the OS, 2.1 (Eclair). You can verify by going to settings-> About Phone -> Android Version.
Gapps refers to google apps like maps, voice dialer, google search, market etc.
For the time being what i want you to do is tell me which android version you are using and also how exactly this problem started.
Regards
E
Click on the thanks button if my post was of any use to you
No...it turns off when I open Maps o Wisepilot and try to get position using the GPS....few seconds after the app start running ,it switch off and switch on again...
I have android 2.1 updated.... I have an app named Juicedefender and MYLookOut...I delete memory booster app and Auto killer. The maps app star working rigth wit the GPS for a while but few minutes later the phone switch off again....
Try updating apps of it still does not work try flashing the phone by going to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746 download the flasher and the firmware from http://www.mediafire.com/?sqv6274anzfzn2x
Extract the flasher zip file, open the program X10FlashTool.exe
If the firmware is of the extension .ftf
copy the firmware to the firmwares folder found in the flasher folder
if the firmware is not in the .ftf format
Advanced -> Bundle creation -> select the folder containg the firmware -> enter details required ( Device, Branding, version) -> select all the files present in the folder list (on the left side) and transfer to the firmware content -> click ok
-> click on flash -> select the firmware -> when asked connect the phone in flasher mode and you are good to go.
If you require busybox or root or xrecovery it will be found in the advanced menu.
Now update Maps and try again,

I was making some test and the problems happen also when I opne GPSTest app. Yesterday I used the SonyEricson Companion Software to repaire the phone (I think is like "reflash the phone"). After that I install superuser, busibox and I rooted my phone. Finally activate the GPS and try to test it using GPSTest app but it works fine for a couple of minutes and after that the phone turned off by itself.... Don´t u think the problem could be the GPS Hardaware instead of software?......By the way , It seems like the problems showed up after I updated my phone fromo android 1.6 to 2.1-updated....
the link you wrote for getting flash and firmware is for xperia X10i but my phone is X10a is there any problem with that? O I need to look for X10a?

There is a possibility that it could be your hardware and since no other user is helping us out, i think its best you reflash using SEUS and DO NOT root the phone and go to a nearby service center and show it to them
Yea the firmware link i gave is for x10i, my bad i thought you had a x10i anyways it doesnt matter because i have heard of users who have installed x10i firmware on x10a anyways for the sake of safety of you mobile, in the flasher website, if you scroll down a bit you will find firmware for the x10a
Regards
E
Ok I reflash the way you told me...I selected the firmware for x10a ...everything was OK after I reflash the phone until I see that I do not have data conection anymore!!....I am in mexico and I was paying a data conection using EDge and 3G but after the reflash I can not havit both of them!!....now what_
Thank you so much...I fix the data conection problem...I need to restore my system settings backup. Now it seems to work properly incluiding the GPS....I am gonna test it the rest of the day to confirm is 100% ok....Thanks a lot
Always there to help a person in need bro. Take care and if everything is fine, i would recommed that you root the phone and try out all the features possible on the mobile, make it worth your money

Did you go back to 1.6 or 2.1? Just in case that it is a hardware problem, i would suggest that you take the phone to your local dealer and ask for a replacement device.
Better act while you still have warranty.
I will do that....after I reflash the phone , the problem comes out again...Afer a couple of minutes I activate the GPS and opened the Maps, the phone crash, I mean it switch off...
Im gonna ask warranty....regards
mine use to do it but it stoped after the third time

[Q] errors on x10i

Hi all,
I've already posted on this issue but its still bugging me. I have the latest firmware, baseband and when I install the rom it works very good until the phone reboots after some time (this happens after fresh install is completed, not during installation), all apps like the market, gallery, phone, contact, all settings give errors and I get a pop up window for all of them and they all say force close. All other apps I’ve installed work fine with no errors. I reboot into xrecovery and do a wipe, clear cache and fix permissions and reboot but after a while it does it again so I keep going back to 2.1 which after playing around with 2.2.1 etc makes the x10 a better phone.
Is there anyone out there that can offer any kind of help ! PLEASE ! on this or is it just myself with this issue.
Thanks
You are not alone mate. 2.2 is always fantastic for me, at the start atleast. I end up getting pretty much the same as you, needs to be rebooted to become stable again.
The longer I leave 2.2 on my phone the more unstable it becomes.
I wander how others get there's to work. there gotta be away coz if it didn't work for everyone there would be more queries about it. I love my fone and i don't want to quit on it just yet.
If you are talking about using freex10, it requires a baseband .54, pls check on that revert back, i had used freex10 for about a week or two before moving to gingerbread, everything was working fine then for me.
Regards
E
I do have the latest baseband but it still bums out after about an hr or so. Even if i load a rom, don't restart and leave it overnight and when i awake i unlock the screen and i get the errors. i noticed when it tries to sync with mail i see the errors starting.
I mean gmail. could it be related to the gapps i install after installing the rom ?
Are you using gapps1901? I'm using those google apps with no problems at all....
I've tried different roms and they all end up the same, with errors. Can i use that gapps you mentioned with other roms ?

Cant call, text or recive calls

Here is what happend:
So this is my sisters phone and Im trying to fix it for her. The phone was locked when our little sister failed to open it too many times (my sister had the graphical lock enabled). My sister then took it to a phone store which managed to fix the lock (updating it from 1.6 to 2.1) but in the same process they somehow managed to make the phone block calls and text. They told her that it had "been blocked"..?
She after that she cant send or receive texts, cant make or receive calls but she can surf via 3G.
What is wrong?
Here is what I've tried:
I'm a big andriod noob since Im a iphone user but I can use google and I've jailbreaked/unlocked iphones many times.
So I've tried both to re-flash (with flash tool) the phone and to restore it with SEUS. None worked. First after using the Flash tool the phone got stucked in a boot-loop. At this points I tried SEUS but it would just get stuck and then tell me that the restore had failed. At last I managed to get back into a working phone when I went down to 1.6 using ROOT_F3V3 (I dont know if I did the whole flash procedure right but right but when it was done the phone started fine but the text and call issues persisted). So then I tried SEUS again and this time it worked so now I got a fully updated and restored phone. BUT STILL: it cant text, make or receive calls. Is there any next step? Any method which I haven't tried yet? I stumbeled upon something called xRecovery. Could that help me? Or is the phone pretty much bricked...
Please help me

The problems:
1st - i am an idot, guess i need a doctor for it.
2nd - I have a rooted OT6033x - everything works fine until i... well i don't really know what the problem was but now, the accessibility service won't start and because of that, no one can reach me by call, my number is busy all the time.
Everything else is working WLAN and mobile Data. I can make calls out but no way to call in.
I tried to flash original stock rom with Alcatel's Mobile Upgrade Tool, but the 6033x is not listed inside the tool, only 6023 and 6040. What i need is the orignial stock rom but i can't find anything on the web - i am searching since hours.
Does anybody have a download for me or - if possible - a solution for the problem with the accessibility service. (is there any custom rom i could flash? miui maybe?"
Thx in advance.

You have to install the Google Apps as a separate install when dealing with most non stock roms. Surely the guide you were looking at mentioned that...? Weird that you are having issues with Sms as it's rare roms have that trouble. Which messaging app are you using? Your contacts aren't there because you wiped your phone, installed a new operating system, and didn't install the Google apps to resync your account. I'm confused on why you're surprised by that... Kies doesn't work on non stock roms and is a much inferior tool vs Odin. Also, didn't you do a nandroid backup before installing Slim? If so, you could just restore that and you would be back to the previous version in like 10 minutes. If you didn't...well, you weren't looking at the right guides then. I think Slim is 10x better than stock, personally but depending on the phone and version, there can be some minor issues.
I think that Whatsapp doesn't recognize your phone because of the custom DPI. If you set that to stock value, it should work.
