Hi guys.I just got my X10 this evening.Honestly,i didnt know anything about Android and all the stuff u've been talking here.I guess i bought it mainly because of its price and its sleek design. Question is,can i just survive using it without upgrading it like you guys do? My main activities with the phone are just for call,msg,mms,listen to music,games,and very light internet browsing.I dont even use any data plan. I think what you all do with the phone are amazing and i have no single clue on it. =)

Any basic things i shud do in order to upgrade the phone a lil bit.Not that im complaining with the current phone performance.Thisis my 1st smartphone anyway,so i guess im happy with it as it is.

go to settings- manage application.... but this is too general, u should be exploring this yourself..
but if u want to remove SE default apps like Timescape, u'll need to root ur phone- dload Titanium Backup from market..

2nd prob - can u browse ur sdcard content from ur pc? if not, i bet u havent mount ur sdcard....
*
I can access evertyhing from pc,but when i try to copy files into it,then the its says couldnt find the specific path. what dou meant by mount sdcard? :|

Root the phone..hmm..i guess i shud give it a try.im afraid i might ruin the phone since i dont know how to do it....haa
im starting to understand a bit.i shud try it when i fully understand whay you guys had posted on 1st page

if u can browse ur sdcard from ur pc but cannot drag n drop any files into it, then i have no idea bro..
never heard of such problem.. maybe u can try reformating ur sdcard and see if it helps..
*
Yeah..i thought the same too..maybe i shud format the sdcard..theres not much files inside anyway.
thanks ya..

there's 3 option on stable rom...
zdizhu FreeX10 Beta4 <-- vanilla Froyo
if u want Cynogen mode - go for WOLFbreak..
if u want MIUI - go for TriPnRaver 1.0.63.... <--this rom homescreen has an iOS4 feel, but with Android power..

its hard to say which one is the best cos all of them offer different interface.. depends on which u prefer i guess...
its impossible to brick (ruin) an X10 cos the bootloader is locked...just play around with FLashtool 0.2.9, xrecovery and ur good to go...
worst come to worst, just flash the generic rim (from xda too) or use SEPCompanian and do a repair (works evry time)

playing mp3 files never been a problem with me... i just create an mp3 folder and put all my mp3 in there.. my player detects them straightaway..
try other player in market too.. and yes, ur missing a lot of things if u dont custom ur x10... rugi rugi...nuf said

Take out your battery and press the on button. Put the battery back in. Leave it off. Start the flashing process again.

It will tell u to hold back button, then plug in USB. Don't release for about 20 seconds. Try that.

It didnt work..im so hopeless right now sad.gif
is there any way to make it back to normal? cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif

how about do a hard reset and return it to the factory setting...

about manual hard reset, turn off ur phone. take out the battery for about 1 minute. put it back. press left and right button at the same time. then press the power button to turn it on
or....

use pc suite (not pc companion)...there is a phone repair menu there, just follow the steps and u gonna back to the factory setting...and u can start all over again

ok.. now ur phone is all ok, right? just like i told ur.. SEPC is a savior for all firmware error...

however, the symptom on ur pc is showing that the installed x10 driver on ur pc might not working as it should...

if u have the guts to do it again, which i believe u will, connect ur current phone to ur pc.. make sure all drivers are automatically installed on ur pc...
take note of the usb port u use... sometime, ur pc might only recognise ur phone on this particular port ONLY...
once evrything confirm to be working fine, then try flashing ur phone using flashtool again..
(redownload the custom firmware again... the one u have could be corrupted too...)

also, why dont try install Flashtool on ur office pc.. im sure it will work...

dont worry.. x10 bootloader is lock by default...there is no way u can brick ur phone when using flashtool...

i bet u'll be glad u followed our advice by going custom firmware...

Never again...like seriously i was freak out.thinking of getting BB end of this month and give my phone to my sister.

Agreed with you! Thats why I use Android now..but right now i feel like Android is so complicated..either that or im just not willing to try hard enough. First try was a total fail that left me freak out! tongue.gif

On the bright side,now i know what you guys have been discussing about. I had no clue before rclxm9.gif
