i have the x10 on three uk with the 2.1 upgrade but its starting to annoy me now because its so slow. deciding weather to get the iphone 4?


You will regret getting the iphone, you are too restricted with it. Its slow and has signal issues. Uk contracts are generally more money too. Personally id look into Jit optimiser or the free x10 2.2 rom. Both will increase the speed from your x10.

lol - enough said about that!!

Id take the ARC over Galaxy 2 anyday.

I know the Galaxy 1 has had some good reviews, but my sister has it, but the build quality doesnt do it for me.

where as my SONY X10 flawed as it is on GENERIC software, is awesome on the FREEx10 rom and its built to last, ive dropped it so many times ive lost count, and spilt not 1 but 2 cups of coffee over it and it hasnt got a problem lol. So im sticking with SONY i think, but with the speed of the DEV of droid, there will be something else out by time my Upgrade comes round..

my baseband wont accept the freex10 rom

not 100% sure how to update it so if it aint broke....dont fix it!!

tbh there are sooooo many roms out there....which one do u choose?

Mine wouldnt at first, just looped round and round
so i followed this guide
[FLASHTOOL GUIDE] HOW TO for n00bies - xda-developers
and flashed to [X10i_2_1_A_0_435_GLOBAL_ROM]
which then allowed me to xrecovery the freex10 rom, and trust me mate, its awesome. as for which to choose, individual preference i suppose.

The freex10 2.2 rom has a few issues, Video recording being the main one, but there is a work around, and if you really need HD recording you can always switch roms with Xrec.

If you want more speed but dont want to flash a new rom
you could always Try Jit, which is an optimiser and will improve your x10 as it is

If you go for that you should Hit around 700+ in the benchmark, just to demonstrate the power of the freex10 rom however, i now hit 1190+ !!!!!!!!!!!!
