If you have your X10 rooted, why not explore it some more? Perhaps one of the easiest files to tweak is the build.prop, at /system/ folder. That file contains several systems settings that can be changed. Many different ROMs have different configuration setups according to the creators will or objective. Check out some examples (the last one is the best)! TIP: use a file manager with a good text editor. I suggest Root Explorer.
Basic device settings can be usually found at the beginning of the file: here you can fool the web browser or any other app to think your device is any other you write. Not clearly useful, but it works!
