ES explorer 4.0.2.3 without some trash. Don't update it in market or u'll get a lot of useless stuff aka TRASH.
Remane it just ES.apk and put in intenal root directory open chrome and type in addres "file:///sdcard/ES.apk" without ", now u will redownload it and now can install, but don't forget to turn on in security unknown sources.
Or just donwload from mobile from this post and istnall

Thanks. ES is quite good, I have used them in the past, I have just download the Asus file manager, it's a very basic one and just what I need and works well with no ads.

Fx file explorer app started using it after all the es explorer problems much better in every way

Ouch so Xperia X doesn't have File Commander installed??
So how is USB OTG support now?
Es File Explorer has the ugliest UI I've ever seen BTW.

Here File Commander can't mount USB device and can't see it
For ugly GUI of ES: try to turn off NEW LAYOUT in ES configs...without NEW LAYOUT it has classic style
UPD: hm...with other flash file commander can mount and see OTG...but very looong...ES much faster!

Why Sony discontinued this software on Xperias is beyond my understanding.
Mobi Systems software has been installed on Xperias since Z...
Another brainless decision. Or they're just saving the money.

custom Hosts file | 3/6/2010 | 14,714 ads, banners, 3rd party Cookies GONE!!

What it does..
The Hosts file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. This file is loaded into memory at startup, then Android checks the Hosts file before it queries any DNS servers, which enables it to override addresses in the DNS. This prevents access to the listed sites by redirecting any connection attempts back to the local (your) phone. Another feature of the HOSTS file is its ability to block other apps from displaying ads (not all).
How to install..
unzip..
transfer hosts file to the tools folder of your sdk installation
open terminal with android connected and adb drivers installed
cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
adb remount
adb push hosts /system/etc
exit
..or simply use Root Explorer
You are now protected against 14,714 ads, banners, sites and 3rd party Cookies

sorry for that, file is now uploaded! let us know if it works on 2.1. I'm not sure if 2.1 stores the hosts file in system/etc still.
Installed on quietcblongs AOSP 1.6 and it installed without a hitch. went to popupcheck.com and it passed all the popup test. So it seems to be working on my end.

Yes you can, it only blocks ads and risky sites. Those sites you mentioned are full of ads, so with this file they will actually load faster.

you cannot change mobile network's DNS, but you can however, using wifi set a static IP and therefor change your wifi's DNS to openDNS.
doesnt this just duplicate the functionality of "AdFree" on the market? minus the updatability of the hosts file from adfree.
Some people just don't feel like downloading an app from the market when all it takes is to push an updated host file to /system/etc. I prefer doing everything manually anyways. You learn more about how things work. Instead of having an app do everything for you, now you know where the file is located, how it works, and using that information, you can easily update it whenever you want to filter out other known servers of spy/adware to suit your needs.

If your windows is that bad then I would either use a backup(if you did one) or a fresh install.

Find yourself a copy of BartPE with Password Renew in it.
Burn, boot, use password renew to reset the password for any account.
I'm trying this, except when I get to "adb shell a2sd install" it says a2sd: not found.
:\
I had to go to /system/bin before i could run a2sd via ./a2sd, after which it worked.

it allows you to use the ext partition from previous versions of CM. Froyo's version now uses a fat32 partition on the sd card, therefore will not read the ext partition and the fact that your apps are on there.

It's not as good, but coming from <= CM5 you may want to port along your apps.
Also Froyo's SD implementation is supported on an per app basis, but can be forced via CM. Note that dalvik cache is only moved to SD when using legacy a2sd.

Not true.

froyo implementation isn't as good as apps2ext. The froyo method uses the fat32 partition but only if the dev of the app allows it to be moved to the sdcard. plus the apps don't all load on boot because the phone has to mount (prepare)the fat32 partition of the sdcard. This is the reason that many apps are not launching at boot like SetCpu and other root access apps, because the system boots before the sdcard is prepared. This is also the reason why many widgets and apps are missing from the app drawer for a lot of people as well. Cyanogenmod really needs to look at this and think about changing back to the old cm5 way of doing things.
I am trying to find a good backup app as doing a Nandroid did not work for me with doing aps2sd this way.

Just a quick question from someone who isn't that experienced with all of these things:
Could this program be used to remove bloatware? As in, the preinstalled carrier/regional apps?
I used to do this with Root Explorer, but this seems no longer possible under froyo and this looks like a fairly easy solution to that problem.
Thanks for your help.

How have you rooted?, as on the xa root is only available via unlocked bootloader. If you can't delete system apps you don't have full root with r/w access. Either Sony RIC is still active or your doing something seriously wrong. Is the system mounted r/w if so deleting them shouldn't be a problem.

Everything seemed to check out. I had root status, but could not delete them.
Only thing I can think is that in SuperSU I did not check the "Enable su during boot" or the "Full unroot"

Zram is already in the stock kernel it was on all lollipop(mid-range Xperias)and I've seen the files while exploring the system with a file manager this device has plenty of ram if that's what you mean.
Adoptable storage has already been done aswell see the thread but it doesn't read the gb of the device correctly it's just a random selection of numbers with a - in front of it.

Kernel seem to have full support but I don't know why you want to increase RAM, XA use zram as swap, you can change the size up to 1Go with a good kernel manager app. I don't know if you can move swap path Look at my screens if it can help you

Consequently, ES File Browser seems to be working now too. I guess it didn't have root access before.

That's awesome ! So if I make root and use good kernel manager I can extend total ram to 3gb total? Just asking for sure, had rooted all previous phones but still feel like 'noob' haha So if I already wasting Your time i wanna understand everything :>
edit: I wanna up to 3gb because some Hi-End games had low fps, 20~ and phone is hot as hell I can cook an egg on it ^^ for example ( CSR Racing 2)
I hope increase RAM can help a little, but maybe I am wrong :/ Maybe it's depend on CPU..

Yes and no, by default zram is set to 922 MO/1000 on XA...
Hi-end games need a strong GPU like on PC, our Mali-T860 is not very good as mentioned in Antutu. You can tweak CPU governor or I/O scheduler for one or two more FPS and make your phone hotter a little more
Safer way is to tweak the game itself with GLTools app, results are not always good but it can help.
