Almost all the things mentioned here will lead to the warranty getting void (if u are unable to get it back to stock settings. there are roms for that, so dont worry too much)
Welcome X10 owners…
Seeing that there are so many redundant questions that get raised related to ROMS, baseband, tweaks, etc and that most of the (useful) info is scattered among a LOT of threads and across multiple sections of the X10 forum, I thought I would start a thread which will help new users get an idea of what all can be done on their Xperia X10 phones and point them to the right threads where they can find out the procedures for the same.
If you are new users and dont have much experience on how to install ROMs/Themes I recommend that you read through each of the following sections step-wise so that you follow the steps and requirements of how-to install them.
I made various sections for this: [u can separately download each section as PDF!!! thank you cvchetan for the idea]
Basics [Save as PDF]
The Right firmware/baseband [Save as PDF]
Rooting [Save as PDF]
Recovery [Save as PDF]
Custom Kernels [Save as PDF]
Custom Modules [Save as PDF]
[2.1] Eclair ROMs [Save as PDF]
[2.2] Froyo ROMs [Save as PDF]
[2.3] Gingerbread ROMs [Save as PDF]
[3.0] HoneyComb ROMs [Save as PDF]
Alternate OS [Save as PDF]
Themes [Save as PDF]
Tutorials [Save as PDF]
Optimizations / Tweaks [Save as PDF]
Tools [Save as PDF]
Miscellaneous [Save as PDF]
Actually this thread was already posted in the Q&A section, and subsequently was made a sticky (thank you mods for that), but the scope of the thread has widened and i believe it will be useful for users who are browsing other sections like Development & Themes too. So all the section links will actually redirect you to the relevant sub-posts within the original thread. Sorry for that but it will be easier for me to centrally update information...
I will keep on linking to the various threads as I come across them and as per suggestions which I (hopefully) will get from the senior members. If I have missed out something that u feel should be posted here please send me a pm regarding the same.
All credits go to the amazing work done by our devs and members in keeping our X10 alive, updated with the latest OS versions, performing brilliantly and looking darn sexy…
