hey i have rogers factory unlocked x10a. i am in india.. i want the latest firmware update. i have this R1FA014 BASEBAND VERSION 1.0.14. WHEN I TRY TO UPDATE THROUGH seus or companion it says ur phone is update.. repairing with companion also fails in btw.as i cant repare so there is no update service folder in program data. so someone please so that i can update to latest firmware and also whenever the android 2.1 comes..
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.
I dit it myself with my original italian firmware few days ago. Now, i'm trying to decrypt my original firmware. I've seen a tool here. Do you remember that?

I also can't find where that decryptor is, to change blob_fs to .sin files for flashtool

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.

Can anyone help me downgrade my global 2.1 x10i phone to 1.6 rogers x10a so that I could update via SEUS? When I downgraded to 1.6 it says my model number is unknown (Not x10i or a) and it doesn't recognize my phone at all. Any help would be appreciated.
Just flash your mobile with Root_F3v3 from the link below for 1.6 firmware
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=711907
You only need to do flashing of firmware, after which you need to use X10root.apk to root your mobile.
Then change the region codes by following steps in
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824711
Then again use SEUS to flash your mobile, it'll recognize the mobile in 1.6 firmware and update your firmware to 2.1 if available in your region.
I have the same problem.
I have installed z's pre rooted room previously but since there is a root method now I wish to install the uk generic rom. I try changing the cda but it wont let me repair it just says latest firmware already installed. How can I get uk generic back? I cant find the files for x10 flasher either there are only nordic files.
Hi I just got an x10 for a relative because it was a really cheap deal. It has 3 branded android 1.6 software still on it. Can anyone tell me where to get the generic uk software and what to use to flash it onto the phone. I was going to use Omnius to flash it but they don't have generic uk on there, just generic global and some other generic international.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Can you not just use SEUS or PC Companion to update this to the latest 2.1 software?
Both of those progs are available from the SE website.
I would go with that for a quick official fix
Failing this look for Flash Tool in this forum and follow the guide.
Flashtool is available from here along with the generic firmware for the x10i
Moved to proper forum.
Thanks for your reply. I have upgraded it to 2.1 using seus but as i said in my first post. its branded to 3 and i want to have unbranded generic software so that i can upgrade to 2.3 when that arrives
Just click on the link that I put into my first post to flashtool ... on that page you can download global generic firmware and flashtool to flash it with.
THere is also an excellent tutorial on how to use flashtool by rendeiro2005 here
