Xperia X8 update 2.1 Discussion thread

[account1]

I know that it's possible to root the phone, change the customization-code and update. But there's still no root for 2.1 on X8 yet and so i don't see a confirmed method to change the customization-code back to origin yet.

why do you want to change code back to origin?

why do you want to change code back to origin?

Ok, that leads me to another question: Is this customization code really such an unimportant peace of string? (I mean, the for Updates it seems to be important ;-)

I just would like to get the update without root i think!

Doesn't work. In attach I put SOC log. I wanna do a factory data reset and then try again

Hey daniel try SOC 1.5.1, but replace the su files with the one from the x10mini exploid. Or maybe you could try the latest version of SOC, but replace the su first.

I've got mine rooted that way. Somehow the default su from SOC just stuck, but replacing that solved the problem.

 

[yonutm]

yes that's my customization version

I successfully root my phone, same cust, using steps from 1st page. Dont know what u are doing wrong, maybe is your antivirus? (kaspersky detected something)
Exit antivirus, download again attachments, and try again

Hello guys can I ask about Flash Player ? I have Android 2.1 but after installing flash player and reboot i still can`t open flash pages in the browser any help ?

Or is anyone try the flash player ?

 

[neptun2]

Currently there is no workaround for flash and android 2.1. Only HTC devices with 2.1 have flash lite 4 but it relies on their firmware and sense ui so it can not be ported to other devices. Only SE can help us by integrating flash lite in 2.1 with next update or giving us update to android 2.2. But i doubt that they will do it.

 

[ker0ltjuh]

flash 10.1 on a 600mhz processor is horrible 0.o flash is even laggy on galaxy s...
why would u want it?

 

[neptun2]

Well flash lite 4 should work fine on 600MHz. Flash lite 3 works ok on my nokia 5230 and it has 434MHz cpu. I also prefer to have laggy flash instead of having no flash.
