Can you please look up the build number for German 2.1 mini pro? 1238-7168 doesn´t work for me. Or even better - post the build.prop from German 2.1
I got a german mini pro and its a rumor that the update is already out here - though your number 1238-7168 (u20i_1238-7168) is german and correct, it won't update with this

It is not a rumour, it is available on the website of SE... too bad I already flashed the nordic software, and there is no way back.
No its a rumor, i have mini pro here, and no update! Believe me =)

I already know that because I downgraded to 1.6 German so will have to wait for official upgrade
Why the German version, though the nordic version goes ;-) then perhaps the next update to my back the first
Nordic funzt super ...
Only gain root privileges using the little tools that are described here in the forum for 2.1
then just customize keyboard layout from QWERTY to Querty ... done!
German language pack is in the Nordic ....
So first Nordic and later in German if available can still update ...

Because of keyboard reverting from QWERTZ to nordic in non-default mode. This has been already resolved as well, but still every time you will do an update after this, you will have to fix these two files. I prefer to get an official german update and forget about it.
And yes, I know there are all languages. The only reason I want German update is because of the keyboard (my X10 mini pro comes from Austria). Otherwise das ist mir Schnuppe.

i rooted and updated with nordic-codes in the bulid.prop, wasn't patient enough. now that i tested everything and it looks like the update is rolling out really fast for every section, i'll try to go back to german 1.6 and wait for the real update, exactly for that reason
hope going back to 1.6 is as easy as the update to 2.1...

Just edit your own build.prop. It is a text file and you have to make only 3 replacements, using 1238-8536 as the new value.
keep in mind guys that the keyboard layout in nordic is not qwerty-en. got my device rooted now adn should be fixed in a few seconds...but still a little bit of extra dicking around
Thanks guys. Finally updated to 2.1. WOW
and where is that 3 places to change this 1238-8536 .. i am from denmark and i cant update normally
U20I updated Norwegian phone
Hi. I used a UK one from another thread. Changed the 1238 numbers.
The file attached worked for me. But use at your own risk!
have a branded telenor mini pro, found the build.prop under system and changed 3 numbers.
ro.product.name=U20i_1238-8536
ro.build.fingerprint=SEMC/U20i_1238-8536/SonyEricssonU20i/delta:1.6/1.1.A.0.8/1:user/release-keys
ro.semc.version.cust=1238-8536
Do i just copy it over the old one?

can you tell me how to change the layout?
i do these changes on my CLARO CHILE branded mini PRO and cant get the update : /
I hava a australian 3 U20a. Is it different from U20i?
Upgrade took about 30 minutes (messed up a couple of times) but now it's FW. 2.1.
Didn't see any HUGE changes, but it's more responsive, and more more stable.
Updated to 2.1 in India (Mumbai) on Vodafone on my Mini Pro. I had de-branded earlier using the -0199 CDF to th UK firmware. Thanks to the other threads, I got the build.prop changed (using Root Explorer) to the Nordic one and it upgraded seamlessly to 2.1 At the end, I had a different keyboard layout, but it was easily changed (thanks to the keyboard thread and the root exploit) and now I'm a happy camper using 2.1.
First impressions- smooth and fluid. No lag at all as compared to 1.6. The icons and dark theme enhance the fonts making them easier to read. Downloaded a couple of apps- Angry Birds, XDA app, Cnet, Techcrunch, HuffPost etc.
So, as most of us went to Nordic 2.1 x10 mini pro update I would like to get back to 1.6 (preferably to original O2 Germany version but any version will do).
I have tried editing build.prop in 2.1 to values 1239-2971 (these values were from my original build.prop in 1.6) but SE Update Service says that there is no new updates. I guess that this doesn't work anymore
So, is there any old software backup of 1.6 available for downgrade?
Try deleting the db folder in /Update Service inside your program files
That doesn't work.
I could try putting 1.6 build.prop (original one that I had before editing and updating) but I am afraid not to brick my phone.
Is this safe to do?

Don´t do this. I tried it already. Doesn´t work, and will put your phone in a boot loop.

May I ask why you want to go back to 1.6? Is there something not right with the 2.1 upgrade?
I don't have it yet and am not sure if I want to upgrade if it is so hard to downgrade.
________________________________
edit: I have found the list of issues with 2.1. I will follow this thread to find out how to downgrade if I'm not satisfied with 2.1.

I´ve paid to Davinci to downgrade to 1.6 because of the keyboard issues. I use Palm Graffiti in portrait mode and with my physical keyboard already being german, having Swedish layout on top of it was too much. Will wait for German update to be available. Otherwise no problems at all, only benefits - better battery handling in 2.1 etc.
Ok, thanks for letting me know.
It doesn't have any big problems, but as vlissine said there is this annoying thing with the keyboard. And as german update to 2.1 is coming out soon I would like to get back to original 1.6 version.
Also, I don't know is there any difference in Marketplace between countries. For example one application could be present on german version, but not on nordic.
At first glance there is not that much big of a difference so that you MUST switch to 2.1 immediately, except if the nordic version is suitable for your use.
Hm, no, I'm not planning to go nordic, I will wait for the update to come to Belgium.
u should try omnius instead of davinci. they charge per day of use rather than per flash and its cheaper

I did omnius when I unbranded my phone. This time I used Davinci just to compare. Omnius has one disadvantage - you have to chase their dealers to get credits credited onto your account while at Davinci it is straightforward and immediate.
Also charge per day might be interesting for those who want to flas a bunch of phones, not just one. But I agree omnius is cheaper and is as good as.

When Locale updates arrive, changing your build.prop to your generic one, and then using SEUS to repair your phone would do the trick. You will be changed to your local 2.1

I tried just to test to change Nordic into Russian by using this technique. Didn´t work.
I manage to downgrade to 1.6 for FREE. lol
Just download the FW for u20i NL 1.6 here > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=827273 and use the Flashtool from Binary's post.
Thanks zanndoth, this worked for me very well.
Unfortunally it doesn't works for me. Did al the steps (downloading flashtool etc.) but when I startup my phone I get the animating splash screen en after that a 'frozen' SE logo.... Still there after 15 minutes... Can someone help?
Ok, finally, after waiting longer, it finally works.
Thanks to you all!
I have a NTT DOCOMO SO-01B and i can't wait update OTA.=.=.Website japan don't have any information for update.Can i flash the fw bi4n or try something for update 2.1?Thx for help!!!
I have an NTT Docomo SO-01B
I used Binary's method "X10Flash 2.1 final & 2.1 Firmware." You can find it on the X10 Development board.
Everything worked fine. It also includes the Japanese keyboard (which I prefer so much more over Simeji)!
You will lose access to the Mixi-supporting Timescape (no problem if you have no Mixi account). You also will lose access to the Docomo shop (in my opinion, again no problem).
After you finish, you can run Titanium Backup to remove the stuff you probably won't need (Chinese keyboard, Danish keyboard, a few localized apps, etc.).
Good luck..

I used the nordic one - (same as benjn)
imo it's worth getting the update for the battery life alone.

I've tricked my Generic UK phone into thinking it was nordic and got SEUS to upgrade me to Nordic Combined 2.1... I've rooted it using Superoneclick..
I've had a look around the forum, but to be honest there's so much out there it's like searching for a needle in a haystack.. I've tried various search strings but to no avail...
So.. has anyone sussed out how to switch from one 2.1 ROM to another yet, cos as soon as the UK Generic comes out i'd like to switch back to it to get my warranty back in place!!!....
Thanks.

Yes you can. I'll update my guide on how-to do so very soon.

You should, hopefully the method to debrand/rebrand by switching the version's code will work with 2.1 and it will be really easy. Just wait a couple of days after it has been made available in Brazil and I'm sure someone will post a tutorial here.
I'm interested as well. I'd like to switch back to UK generic unbranded. Keep us posted please!

i think it would be best to grab the X10 flasher from these forums, and then wait until the firmware is released. give it hours/days, and the firmware will probs be available somewhere, and you can then place the firmware in the firmware folder of the X10 flasher.
Alternatively you can change your default.props, but I haven't properly looked into this method as I used the flasher to go global generic, and to be fair, don't really care much for flashing across to UK generic, I dont see the point.
A new update from SE is avaible for Xperia x8
it's version is 2.1.A.0.390.
It isn't avaible for Poland so I can't check what it gives to us.
Tell me what to do if this is multitouch update to upgreade my x8
Oy!
Not available in Norway either. Think we were among the first to recieve previous update, so I'm a bit puzzled.
According to version number, it's the same as mentioned in the multitouch thread.
Any guestimates on its rootability?
Anyone have Cust code that have this yet?

If I only could get SI number with avaible update I could get it...
Can you give m SI code for the latest update 2.0.2? Cause I'm in Bulgaria and here we still don't have 2.0.2. I dont want chinese firmware. Nordic SI code will be perfect.
In chineese you can change language -.-
But still I want nordic FW. The updates there comes first, right?
Thought so, but I'm smack in the middle of "nordic", and no update so far.
Maybe this is caused by me running... i think it's the russian firmware?
I have no idea, but does the russian Si code is updated to 2.0.2?
Also not available here in Greece. Waiting...
Does anything change in location codes for each version?
If my memory serve me, I did post my localization code for nordic firmware around the time of 2.1 update. I'll dig a bit.
Edit: Forgive my nubness, but I believe this to be my "customization code" from the time of 2.1 updates: 1242-7327_R3B
No idea if thats what you're looking for.
no notification on the SE Update site?
is this update going to delete everything (apps, sms) from my phone again?
I'm from Russia, but we dont have this update too...
update not yet available for me too..
its been certified..
