It'll be better but not awesome. Cause 2.2 definitely makes a huge difference.

Did anyone else notice a boost in battery life with the new[er] R2BA020 firmware? I used to have my phone die on me not long after I got home each day, but even with pretty decent 3G usage I'm now ending the day at 65-70%. Quite the improvement.

Phone seems a bit more sluggish though. Could be that they've played with scaling back the CPU? Or it's my imagination.

Android 2.1 update to come out before the end of this September. http://www.cnet.com/8301-19736_1-20015096-251.html

too bad 2.2 has been out for a few months :rolleyes:

yeah waiting on the dev community to finish hacking the bootloader so we can throw 2.2 on there. i don't want freaking mediascape and timescape anyway.

if infact the x10 did get 2.2 thru a root..it still doesnt match up to the quality of say a HTC desire/nexus one or even the samsung galaxy

the bootloader got cracked?

^

"IF"

I'll take any update that'll extend the battery life.

Help! Does anyone else have issues with the phone randomly freezing? Is this a common issue with the x10? And does anyone know where i go to change the apn settings? Phone was unlocked and i need to change the settings for fido.

TIA

Should be the same as all android phones. Go into the settings and then goto wireless & networks. Scroll down to Mobile networks and then Access point names.

the guys down at XDA are almost done with the bootloader:

looks like in about a week we'll finally have custom ROMs on this thing. can't wait to throw 1.6 out the window and slap 2.2 on there =)

Only problem with a hacked on 2.2 is that some things tend not to work right or stability issues. But who knows :)

thank god.

i am on my 3rd X10.. i might give in to an iphone if this keeps up

ouch, ive had no issues with my x10 for some reason.

Update has been delayed to the end of October:

anyone know how to check the lifetimer on this phone?

What cases/covers are you guys using? I'm using the cheap plastic one that they sell at rogers for $20.

2.1 has been moved back to November: http://twitter.com/SonyEricssonCA/status/28805265445

if it doesn't improve the lag for keyboards I'm throwing it away.

You can manually apply the update: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...43#post8944043

I'm about to do it.

If you're worried about bricking your phone, I would hold off following the above link. Some people, myself included, are having problems right now. Better to wait.
