[Q] About Davinci unbrand - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Is there anybody who has unbranded your phone by Davinci Team?
If there is, please, can you give me information about it?
I know the system, an app that flashes your mobile with the cable, buying credits to do it.
But i want to know if the unbrand is definetively, I mean, if the phone gets totally unbranded forever (also i unlocked the phone via IMEI). So, if the 2.1 arrives, can i install it via SEUS with any problems?
Thank you!!!

I emailed Davinci Team about if the phone gets totally unbranded for life (about to update via SEUS to 2.1). Also I asked for any risk, and they say:
Hello,
Sure, you can continue to update via SEUS when 2.1 is released for a generic
version. The only risk is the same with any flash, just be sure you are fully
charged and that you don't yank the cable partway through any process and
you'll be safe; the whole process takes about 10 minutes.

So tonite i'm gona try it... it's only 10 euros, I think it's a good price if the unbrand is for life... the newest updates, etc.

I unbradned via Omnius. It was 4.50 euros.

****... I already purchased the credits! hehe thanks anyway!
And... everything went ok? Is your mobile now like a unbranded bought one right now?
I'm gonna flash now, just waiting the phone will be full chargued to do it.

Yes, it went smoothly. In less than 3 min I unbranded Austrian A1 phone into an unbranded generic UK phone. Suerte!

Done! too easy! I flashed the UK/Black ended in .174 there was the .175 from CN... but I prefeer an UK rom, just in case... hehe
I'm sooooo happy !!!
Gracias !!!
Edited: I had the 1.1.A.0.12 because with movistar spain it's not possible to get a newest update (incredible), they blocked the OTA and a lot of things. Now, testing the latest update i have to say that the phone improves A LOT... i mean wifi / 3G connection, and more stuff is improved, so if you have a branded one... unbrand, it's my advice!

It has an unrootable ROM, i suggest you either buy a european one or just wait, we have been screwed with these ROMs
Thanks for the reply.. but what is actually the problem with the ROM? BTW, what is an unrootable ROM? Basically, I need Chinese input as I am working in China.. therefore, an european HTC might not work without chinese input..

I bought my HTC Hero from a German site, and apparently the default language doesn't have Chinese. I've tried both DrizzyDrake's and modaco's ROM, and have no problem inputting Chinese.
OK thanks.. this is good info.. I am very new to android.. so by loading modaco ROM will have chinese input as well as the latest patch 2.73 that solve the lagging issues right?

Hi , if you buy it from Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia or HK they all can't be upgraded or rooted, the SPL on the ROM has restrictions, if you plan to buy one, make sure it best not to be 2.73.xxx or if you do get a 2.73.xx atleast get a 2.73.405.5 which is european and flashrec works with it, the asian roms flashrec doesnt work with. You will be screwed and can't update to anything else.

i bought my Hero from Smartone-Vodafone in Hong Kong, my firmware is 2.73.721.9, no lag, very smooth
rooted 2.73.721.9, no custom ROM's
Followed the guide on http://blog.trevoreckhart.com/2009/11/10/cdma-hero-root.aspx & rooted device OK.
Used the recovery-RA-hero.1.5.2.img recovery image. DO NOT use "heroc"!
When loading/flashing the recovery image, it gave me lip about a space requirement (unable to read/write recovery partition), but worked fine after I rebooted the device & tried again, so it's probably a good idea to reboot the device before attempting.
busybox on the device helped a lot (thanks to tmzt on IRC for his great help, btw)
As of yet, I have not been able to locate a ROM that I could load on the build v 2.73.721.9.
The MoDaCo ROM (v.3.0) installs OK, but it does not boot up. Just sits there on the boot/loading screen, but I was able to access root shell via adb.
Luckily, I have thorough backups, so it's safe to try stuff & simply revert back to a earlier snapshot

How do i upgrade to 2.1???

Sorry the nobbness of my question, but i really cant get it...
I have the x10 mini phone, i have rooted it with Exploid method (by the way, i still can get the list command to work, and neither uninstall aplication, if you want to help me with that too), im from Chile, and have an Entel pcs "account".
When i conect the phone to pc companion, it says that my phone is allredy upgraded, but it is still version 1.6..
Does it has something to do with me, being in another country, with another mobile company? Or is there a method to upgrade the phone that isnt pc companions one?
Anyway, ill apriciate a lot if yuo guys can help me...
...so thanks!
You need to debrand to a generic rom (Generic UK works for the X10mini) - if you bought your phone from an operator then it'll have a customised version of the rom - Operators will take a while (or never!) to update and release their customised versions of an update. Using the generic rom bypasses this, and you get the software directly from SE without any of the additional operator bloat

Official march update out!!

Hello everyone.. this is my first post..
I just updated my debranded German T-mobile Mozart to the official March update from Microsoft using the zune software; the OS version is 7.0.7390.0
I was using the 7.0.7389 from this site and as far as i can tell there's no difference.. See if any of you can findout if there's anything new
yeah its great we got nodo very early and are now the first to get the official nodo
my bet the only thing changed is the version number. this is now the real final.
7089 was RC1 or something for dev's only ... i just wonder why they bricked their own unlock service and how long it will take to get officaly developer unlocked again...
build says 7390
http://www.winrumors.com/windows-phone-7-nodo-update-now-available/
well I am from Philippines and I have a Mozart phone.. i connected to zune still no updates :/
Australia Telstra branded phone, no update either, carriers take longer.

Good to hear it's not just me, and that I probably did de-brand it correctly. In answer to your question (statement), it could take longer for certain brands/models.
I'm from the UK, if anybody wanted to know.

I'm also in the UK and still don't have the Nodo update....
Hi,
I've debranded my german T-Mobile Mozart some time ago with an HTC europe rom. Is it possible, that it's somehow still affected by the former branding? Maybe by radio or so?

now let me ask this question.. a de-branded phone means you can use any carrier right? the so called "open market phone" or open-line one right?
because mine is like that.. I got it from the HTC contest.. i just don't understand why I still don't have the update here in the Philippines...

Hi eqzgkxokwa, can I ask what ROM version you were previously on (if you know) and also did you receive your update from 7004, 7008 or 7389 ?

Hey,
I'm not sure what ROM I'm on. What has actually happened, is I got alerted of an update, but it apparently can't update while syncing. I had the update wizard come and go, and I haven't heard anything more. I've restarted my phone, constantly checked for updates, and nothing. I'll see what happens tomorrow. I'm currently on 7008.
I got the update after debranding my UK orange device by flashing the europe rom leaked by football.

Still no update notifications today. Would anybody know how often it checks?
If I did a rom, would I lose all my data and settings too? I would be tempted, because this is getting ridiculous.

[Q]Xperia s german T-mobile ROM

Hey guys,
im really desperate about this. I searched for 2 hours but could not find a single firmware from german t-mobile. It doesnt matter which one, of ics or gb. I need the branded firmware for a warranty case. I hope you can help me.
not needed relock bootloader then use pc companion
Firstly thank you but could you be a little more detailed. Is the branded rom flashed when i restore with PC Companion.or what am i supposed to do with the tool? I dont have time to test it now.
Thank you for your replies,
alphaboy
The relock botlooader file you will find in xs development topic with all explication then use pc companian .branded firmware usealy mean some apps from your mobile operator
Nebunia lu Salam
If i restore with PC Companion i will get the stock unbranded firmware, but what i need IS the branded firmware with the startup logo and the apps.
Its about my local t-mobile shop accepting the warranty case. They could deny it if they see the device is unbranded..
Just a ideea relock bootloader and make a bootloop,the rest is up to you to lie them that you have receive an update etc...

Flashed my Mate 10 Pro and need some help

I have flashed many phones and had no problems but this is causing me so much grief and Funky Huawei don't seem much help replying to my pm's..
I purchased a sim free Uk Mate 10 pro from CPW it was running fw 115 (c782)
Wanted to update to the latest 127a fw, so purchased credits and flashed away.
I think where I went wrong was using the unbrand tool, I picked option 7 other = typed BLA-L09 and option 2 again = hw/eu
After then flashed the 127a fw.
All flashed well but it made my phone into a dual sim which I didn't want due to warranty issues, been buying credits like a crazy man trying to get this phone back to a single sim BLA-L09 but it just won't have it, I get weird fw and region codes installed??
I have spent a small fortune now and not very happy, any help would be great and a refund on some of the credits wasted.
To be honest I would avoid this service, keep your money and wait for Huawei to release ota updates.

So, you purchased a BLA-L09 (c782) and you wanted only to update to latest firmware version?If that's correct, then why did you used FHRebrand Tool, instead of just flashing the latest firmware for your device?
FunkyHuawei support was always available when i needed,so maybe you should wait for the Christmas holidays to end.
Next time be patient, nobody forced you to use FH services, so i don't understand why you blame them for your issue.
Merry Christmas! ?
