need some clarity on installing nordic FW - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey guys, like most of you, i've been waiting for this update eagerly. i'd like to install the nordic generic FW in order to be able to update to 2.1 but i'm unsure as to what it will affect on my phone, if anything.
i'm from South Africa and i'd like to know if using the nordic firmware will affect my network access (to MTN South Africa) or anything else that might change after i install the nordic FW. any assistance will be highly appreciated.

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

Oficially just one update behind, but considering the amount of total updates, yes you're far behind

Which Countries have 2.0.2.A.0.24?

Just to clarify things.
Could people please indicate the country and carrier if they have been able to get the .24 update.
Please DON'T report if you are unable to get it.
Many thanks.

Xperia Sola stock firmware for Baltics.

Hi
Anyone know where to find stock firmware for Xperia sola for Baltic region (Latvia)? Doesn't matter 2.3 or 4.0 Android.
The thing is week after going back to stock firmware (don't know what region, definitely not Baltic) from some custom roms my microphone stopped working. Phone now is not rooted and bootloader was never unlocked, so there shouldn't be any problems with warranty if I can find anywhere stock firmware for Baltic region, but unfortunately so far - no luck.
As much as i know you must use Central Europe version, right?

[Q] Desperate need of stock firmware for SGP512 32GB Wifi

Hi, new to the forums and had to register because I require stock firmware for my tablet as I want to sell it..
So I have SGP511 firmware cause I installed one after rooting it (or trying to) and I noticed when formatting it the regions I get asked to select aren't what came up when I originally got the device, so i.e Austria, Belgium, Germany, Netherlands and Switzerland I believe. I'd like it to say United Kingdom and what ever else was there before.
I can't for the life of me find the correct FTF for this, any help please?
I don't know if there was a SGP512 in the first place, but if it can say that I guess that would be a bonus.
Maybe I'm searching for the wrong things.
Thanks in advance.
Still need this
Use XperiFirm to download.
FlashTool to create the FTF yourself.

[Q] Which firmware I can use Nordic or Baltic for Canada?

Which firmware (Baltic or Nordic) I can install on my Generic Z2 bought from Sony Canada Directly?
Thanks
any generic firmware can be used on your device
I've read that as well. My question is why does Sony release numerous generic unbranded ftf files? What's the difference between Nordic generic unbranded ftf and say North American generic unbranded? And if there's no difference, why not just release one single universal generic unbranded ftf? Mind you I don't think North American ftf is rolled out yet.

ril and wifi/mobile data firmwarw is addapted for each region
(not to mind bloatware too)
Ahh. I wonder if that's what was causing me wifi and Data drops with 4.4.4. I was using North American unbranded (I'm in Canada) but I never did try any other unbranded regions.

It shouldn't effect WiFi cause it is same around the world. I was more concerned about LTE radio . I bought the phone directly from Sony so there minimum bloatware, weren't anything except the Sony apps and vine which I removed.
I installed the Nordic version everything seems good so far. Followed the following article

That's good to know at least.. What's the difference between that method and just downloading the ftf and flashing that though?

Nothing I think you are skipping the first two steps
1) Downloading the files from Sony servers
2) Creating the ftf file from that
This gives you choice downloading files for any region
