The Official SE XPERIA X10 Thread

Being able to upgrade to 2.3 is fantastic news!

rua327

Bit of a strange one, anytime I connect phone to PC (X10mini pro) the mem card is available to use as storeage for about 2 mins, and then the phone restarts and the connection is lost.

Anyone have a possible solution? Thanks.

This is because PC Donation has taken over. Open pc companion and you can access the mass storage from there.

Thanks mooneyd. will give it a go now.

Accoutring to the official Sony Ericsson blog the roll out for 2.3 on the Xperia X10 will begin in August

Does anyone know if this will be released on any of the Irish networks? Particularly 3.

I'm pretty sure O2 are releasing it around the time its being released worldwide although I'm not sure about the other networks. Your best bet is to check with them individually.

seems the 2.3 update is out, wonder when we will get it here.

The update was released yesterday and Three had it straight away, so fair play to them for that. Been using it for a few hours now and it's going very well.

I assume the X8 is still not getting this ???

Hi bluesfan,
I saw your thread on the Three forum and started a similar thread on the Vodafone forum. How are you finding the update? In particular is it true that you now have pinch zoom? I was surprised that this is available with the update as I understood this to be a hardware issue.

We've had pinch zoom for a while now, ever since the upgrade to 2.1.

All is going well at the moment, the phone seems fast and responsive. Battery life hasn't been great but thats mostly because I've been using it a lot, getting all my apps back on and just playing around on it. Having Flash on it is great, just watched the second half of the Arsenal v Boca friendly on the phone.

On a non-rooted phone?

I've did the 2.1 update but don't have pinch zoom (that I can find).

Non rooted, three branded phone. There was an upgrade just before the 2.1 one that brought pinch zoom( although not full multi touch) which I think was then built into the 2.1 release.

Hmmm.... So either I've missed something or for some reason Vodafone didn't include it in their version of the 2.1 update?

Did you have to change any settings to activate the pinch zoom?

I cant remember having to change any setting, I think I just updated and it worked. It might be worth looking in the settings though, just in case the Vodafone update didn't have it turned on be default.

Ignore that, just had a look back at the updates I did and the multi touch one came after the one for 2.1, my faulty memory had them together. The 2.1 was before Christmas and the multi touch was a few weeks into the new year.

I have an unbranded Nordic flashed version (originally on O2) and I got the 2.3.3 update this morning via PC companion.

I'm on meteor and no update from either seus or the companion.

Will give Vodafone a week or two but am seriously considering unbranding the phone.

trying to install an .apk (google music) but astro won't open the file. its unzipped, and is a .apk, but when i click app manager it says it couldnt open it as an .apk...
anyone got any tips? I have "install non market apps" selected, and phone rooted.

prionnsias

I'm pretty sure google music doesn't work outside the united states so thats probably your reason there.

boosh_fan

Has anyone on O2 updated using PC companion? I've missed both prompts on the phone for the update and PC companion says my phone has the latest software.

it does, its just the registration is the issue, and that can be gotten around easily. the apk isnt on the market is the only problem.

I've tried update on o2, as far as Im aware the new firmware isnt out yet, I asked on twitter, they said they were working on it.

BravoMike

Just updated my phone to 2.3 and I'm with O2

zuroph

I got sick of waiting and flashed a generic sony firmware 2 a while back. Love it, seems so much faster.

Hi,

I'm having trouble with my SE X10. It will only charge via the USB connection on my PC, and not the wall socket, but strangely, the PC companion won't recognise the phone.

I've restored the phone's factory settings, but still no joy.

Any suggestions?

Did you try a different USB cable?
