Help Mobile Network settings have some options missing?

[jimrin]

On a typical Android phone, when going into Mobile Network settings, there are many options available, such as data enabled, data roaming, network preferences, access point names, and network operators.

On my wife's Xperia x10, which is running the Sony Ericsson 2.3.7 android update, for some reason, there are only 3 options: data enabled, data roaming, and access point names. There's not even the option to select network operators..!

Also, on the System Settings menu, when going into the Sony Ericsson option, nothing is displayed.

Anyone seen anything like this? Obviously, updating mobile network settings isn't that critical with a working phone... I don't know how long it's been like this since I haven't had to check her mobile network settings after setting it initially...but now, I wanted to change the 2G/3G setting on her phone to see how much that'd improve the battery life.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Don't know where you got 2.3.7 from. Did you install a custom firmware and ROM on the x10?

That is probably the problem.

For the x10a and x10i, there is 2.3.3 and 2.3.5 ROMs out there that people have flashed. I guess I see that some ROMs have updated to 2.3.7...but not that many.

When you installed the ROM, you did do a wipe davalik, wipe battery stats and do a factory reset within xRecovery before installing the ROM

Maybe give this thread a quick read too:
