in future, to flash phone to 2.1 by rogers you could try default.prop method, a then just use Repair in PC Companion

Can I install any firmware on my X10?
At the moment I have a german X10 with Baseband 1.0.14.
Can I upgrade to 1.0.16 without any problems?
Yes, when you have an branded Version, u must use the instructions to debrand it. But u can upgrade without any Problems. When Your phone is unbranded use the Sony Ericsson Update service, it will find the update. Save your old frimware when u decide to debrand it, so u can brand it back for warranty reasons.
Sounds great.
You have to know, that this is my first Android device. Before, I jsut used webOS and WinMo.
What tools do I need do 1. drebrand, 2. save the old firmware and 3. put the new firmware on the device?
I'm using a Mac, but can use Windows if needed.
Thanks for answer

This might be a stupid question but I'm running R1FA016 (was originally running R1FA014, Vodafone UK but flashed the phone) however when I go into the service menu it states that it's customized. I was under the impression that R1FA016 is unbranded.
To get into the service menu press menu, back, back, menu, back, menu, menu, back when the phone is locked.
I'm getting my info from the first option 'Model Info'.
Any ideas or am I being stupid?
I have R1FA016 version x10, bought it from o2 in uk, its not sim locked and it doesnt apear to be branded either, but it says customized too

I have R1FA014 on tmobile Uk, am i far behind?
Oficially just one update behind, but considering the amount of total updates, yes you're far behind

Running Brazil firmware on X10i, Tmobile US. Everything is peachy... testing now.

this work the way to return back from nordic firmware to orginal firmware.

i will like you to share my knowledge regarding returning back to own country firmware from the nordic 2.1
first of all download the bin4ry update tool and firmware but not any firmware but 1.6 firmware
downgrade your firmware from 2.1 nordic to 1.6 any countries firmware should work
then change the value of build.prop to your orginal handset value or your choice value.for more information about the value you can search blog
then try to update it with seus. if it say you have latest firmware then repair it with seus and if seus dont give option for repair then use pc companion .
if you are lucky then you will get the latest firmware or downgrade your firmware to your choice of firmware and that is great for now cauz if there is any update for your choice of firmware then you will get update so need to wait for while
i know this work cauz i have done this by first of all i was using nordic 2.1 thou my orginal firmware is uk generic then i downgrade my firmware to netherland 1.6 and then i change the value/replace it with my orginal build.prop and now this mornign i repair my phone with seus and it is working like acharm 2.1 ..hurry guys ...
i have included my build.prop 1.6 so this should work for each and every one
Thanks for share.

Use the NL one in the link above, root the phone using Androot, copy the build.prop from the first post to /system/usr and replace the old one, then open PC Companion while your phone is connected and click update.
Hi @all,
i am looking for the 1.6 German Firmware, i would go back from 2.1 because i have now problems with my bluetooth hands free
Thanks badboybiky and Skeldave.

[Q] Version incoherences

Hi!
I bought an X10 Mini about a month ago (Unlocked Latin American) and I've falshed it 2 times through SEUS, I was checking the back of my phone and it says SI 1237-3271 (from what I've gathered this is the General Latin American CDF), however I opened my default-capability.xml not only does it say that my model is and E10i (and it can't be since it's Latin American and I have a 3G connection in Colombia) but it also says that the phone's CDF is 1238-5790.
Does anyone know if this might be a problem when I try to update to 2.1 or any other kind of problem at all?
Thanx
if you are on your oficial firmware or the firmware what you wabt to stay... try doing a repair with PC companion, i downgrade from 2.1 nordic or whatever to the 1.6 nordic or whatever.... then i change my build.prop to the orginal one from my claro carrier, then do a repair, so i was on the original firmware claro again but Not 3G/UTSM band support, i repair it again and the problems gone
If your build prop refers to 1238-5790 it should be good for updates to 2.1. That is a E10a code.
Thanks for your answers, I realized that both CDFs are correct, the problem is that no update has been release for any E10a that I know of.

[Q]Help:how to SEUS be used on Rogers X10a upgraded to 2.1 & downgraded to 1.6 rogers

[Q]Help:how to SEUS be used on Rogers X10a upgraded to 2.1 & downgraded to 1.6 rogers
Flash my X10a rogers branded to Nordic firmware and didn't like this 2.1, but I downgraded my x10a to rogers 1.6, Now I've noticed SEUS do not recognize my phone and says you have already latest software installed, although it should allow to reinstall current one which it don't now.
Anyway I can have SEUS " sony ericsson update service " in future ?
Read one of the numerous "Rogers" posts on the same subject, which would have been suggested when you posted this.

Manual Update to Stock 2.3.3 x10

Hi guys,
I am on rogers here in Canada, and we did not recieve the 2.3 update for my branded x10i.
I wanted to manually update to 2.3, and was wondering if I can do that.
Can i just download the Generic version 2.3.3 build 3.0.1.G.0.75 from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
(which says its meant for unbranded x10i's) and use it on my branded x10i from rogers and follow the instructions to root and install? Would it work? Or what are the procedures?
I ultimately want stock 2.3 rooted for my phone.
Thanks!
of course it works
just put the downloaded .ftf file in the firmware folder of your extracted flashtool
then flash it
done
It works flawlessly dude. I made that with my X10a Rogers about 20 days ago
