# 1.0.A.0.8 Firmware # HOw to 2.1 Tutorial... - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

This thread as of now is outdated. Binary has posted a tool to upgrade to 2.1 Nordic. Follow this thread only if you want to update to a UK firmware (1.6) and wait for 2.1 or get lucky as like some people.
Read carefully : IF THIS DOESN'T"T WORK FOR YOU , ITS BECAUSE YOU"RE DOING IT WRONG. DON'T SPAM THE THREAD WITH - "Its not working , you're misleading people " comments. IF it doesn't work for you ask help in a manner that people dont think you're an ass.( some ppl learned that lesson ). THIS is strictly for Indian mini's running 1.A.0.1.8 firmware with 1.6 . Good luck
UPDATE : This should work for all 1.0.A.8 firmware...not tested though!! Get your own build.prop for those who're not from India , or you can take risk and try this... no risk for Indian Mini's..
Getting fast to the topic without much delay!
Its been conformed that Indian mini's will get 2.1 only by November mid. I'm posting this tutorial because i successfully edited the build.prop to debrand the mini ( Thanks to the new method discovered - credits to the OP )
The debranding is to UK generic , which is said to receive the update very soon.
Things you need
1. x10mini with firmware 1.0.A.8
2. Root
3. Root Explorer ( search market )
4. PC companion s/w
Procedure-
Backup your build.prop from /system
Download the attached build.prop and move it to /system using root explorer. ( You have to put the attached file on the memory card obviously )
Without restarting , connect to PC companion and Repair ( Factory reset+repair )
Tadaa - You're new firmware will be 1.2.A.174 , update with SEUS and get 2.1
Good luck
For those who said it was fake ( bit blurry )

my phone is already with that fw version and wont update to 2.1... so what you are doing here isnt a 2.1 update tutorial, its just a generic uk flashing

I have updated with build.prop of nordic version, seems nice.
File attached.

In Kerala anything from UK is considered one step above. Even 1.6 UK feels like 2.1 Indian

You guys suck , im waiting for root to take screenshots and post ...

What sucks is your trolling instructions. UK generic has not been updated yet, and you should know that.

Yeah, yeah ... same story again. Say that Indian does something wrong and get immediately accused of being a racist. For your information I am black, so keep your racism stories to yourself, mate.
The fact is that your instructions are crap and don´t work, as there is no update for UK generic. Point. Stop inventing stories or give us a proof.

Your method doesn´t work for anyone, because it is just an update to UK generic. You are misleading people.

O2 is no good.. but appreciate the help very much...
As far as i know, O2 are running r1fa016 and their customisation number is 1234-4762.
I need a seus standard/decrypted or reconstructed firmware from an unbranded handset not taken out on a contract. (Purchased outright )
going to upload it .. it will take a while .. (256k upload )
edit:
21:10 - 2%
21:22 - 16%
21:38 - 34%
not sure if it is exactly the same fw which you are requesting,
but it is unbranded generic *14 fw .

I've got the file 'SE_X10_R1FA014_GENERIC_EU.rar' - I'm uploading it to Megaupload.
It should be an X10i version, as I use an x10i.
Hopefully, I've only downloaded x10i roms...

My Dear and esteemed friend, Thank you very much, this help's me sooooo much with the ROM's, i just cant find the right words to express my gratefulness (i did find the thank-you button though)
BTW, ill receive my phone in a couple of days, if it comes with baseband .64, please provide me with the necesary instructions on how to extract it so you can add it to your baseband post. Maybe even make it bigger and accomodate the mini, active and lww, besides our loved SK17i
Im not uk style, but Cheers

New update notification

Hello,
I am leaving in France and my actual ROM is JPLPC. Yesterday I get a notification to make the available update. I think this Samsung message but there is no what ever information as what update is it.
Anyone over there specially in my area had received such message? Should I perform the update or let go.
Thanks

OK, now that we've sorted out that other thread...
I've had a look @ Checkfus, it seems your carrier released an updated firmware on 7/6/2012 - BULPD. So I guess it's up to you whether you want to update or not. As Samsung don't release changelogs, it's hard to say what's changed in this update, I guess you could ask your carrier & they might be able to tell you.

Help please !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
