How to change the 2.1 region build? - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Guys, for some reasons (mostly because of the keyboard issue in non-default mode), I´d like to change my Nordic 2.1 for German 2.1 on my X10 mini pro. Editing build.prop file and using SEUS didn´t work. Any ideas?

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.

[SOLVED] [Q] build.prop for german unbranded x10 mini pro 1.6

hi,
i own a X10 mini pro.
I got i from e-bay with T-Mobile branding.
I thought that I could update to 2.1 and debrand at the same time.
My Idea was to first unbrand my Phone by changing the build.prop to the unbranded German and updating via SEUS.
Whenever the Update to 2.1 would be ready for germany I could then update to 2.1.
I got it as far as installing the UK generic build.prop and installing UK generic but, as I live in germany, i would be interested in the german Image. Just replacing the Number in the build.prop does not work.
Does anyone here have any x10 mini pro build.prop from germany?
Greetings
Hi, I just walked to my local hardware store and pulled the file from one the phones there.
In case someone is interested I will attach the file.
Hi I live in germany too. I have tested the debrand method to replace the build.prop with the original german one that you attach. I get everytime the same error from SEUS and PC Companion that I have already the latest firmware. So far so good. But Iam missing the installtion button which appears when I have the original T-Mobile build.prop...
Can you verify me that the debranding works with your phone and you build.prop?
Thanx in advance.

[Q] Build.prop... 2.1? Hmm...

Wanted to ask,
I have 2.1, using nordic build.prop method, and now the 2.1 generic UK update has been released so is it possible to replace the nordic build.prop with a generic 1.6/2.1 build.prop so it updates my phone to the UK's firmware,
any help will be appreciated
No replies?
can I just upload a UK generic 2.1 build.prop and re-update my phone?
I already try to restore my original 1.6 build.prop for have the 2.1 FR firmware, but it doesn't work : after restore, the build.prop is the same as 2.1 Nordic
sorry for my bad english, i'm french
I see, so it must be the same update then (meaning nothing different in nordic than uk) thanks for the reply
Yeah, because if you check in the build.prop, it's the same "version fs" : World 1-8 but not the same product name : E10i_1236-9436 for my 1.6 ROM and E10i_1238-0549 for 2.1
It's strange
Yeah I too Wanted To Do The Same As I Have Flashed Using Binary's Guide Nordic Firmware But now Firmware 2.1 is officially Released in My Local ( India ) What To Do Guys ?

First, you should check your old 1.6 and new 2.1 build.prop and compare the ro.semc.version.fs value (for me it's world-1-8)
If it's not the same, then replace your actual (2.1 nordic) build.prop by your 1.6 india. Then restore with SEUS
Hopefully this will help you

In my case, both says WORLD-1-2-5, I have upgraded from 1.6 to 2.1 using a Brasilian build.prop, now in Argentina 2.1 has been released, last night I tried to change the firmware using the OLD build.prop and it doesn't work. So I GUESS i need a updated argentinian's 2.1 build prop... again I GUESS.
What you guys can try is -
Restore your original 1.6 build.prop, (Or just change product.name, all three instances) save it and shutdown the phone (remember do not switch it on, you will stuck on SE logo forever)
Go to Sony ericsson>update service>db>some_number>blob_fs folder and delete all the files (or cut-paste them somewhere else)
Connect your phone to update service and force repair.. You will hopefully get back to your original version.
I restored my phone to original version through this method... Hopefully it will work for you too..

[Q] Problem with 3G after changing e10a to e10i.

Hi, I have a problem. I had to update my stock x10 mini e10a to e10i to get the 2.1.1.A.0.6 firmware to install nobodyAtall miniCM rom. Everything is fine (the rom actually works great) but I lost my 3G connectivity because of the e10a to e10i change. Is there any way to modify my build.prop properties only so that my device now supports the 3G signal from my service provider, like making it believe it is connecting to an x10 mini e10a with official 2.1 fw instead of the e10i with 2.2.1 MiniCM mod?... Thank you!
PS: If you need a copy of my build.prop just let me know.

[Q] Nordic firmware for SK17i ??

Hey.
I´m new at this forum and maybe its not in the right place, that I post this (I could not post i develope).
I´m looking for nordic (DK) official software for my SK17i Xperia mini pro.
A couple of months ago I rooted the phone, but now I have new phone and I gave my wife the Mini pro. But there is a lot of problems with it.
Yesterday I flashed it with 4.0.A.2.368 but now the slide down keyboard does not work with the danish letters "Æ", "Ø" and "Å".
And furthermore when I rooted the phone, I was not able to update it through SEUS or PC Companion to an official firmware, because it says that the phone have modified software.
So I found a generic nordic firmware in this thread, but Megaupload is shutted down by the departement of justice.
What to do ?
You should use Wotanserver to flash your Xperia Mini Pro, just follow the instructions.
You can select which version and language you want to flash.
My phone is rooted and I can reflash it with PC companion or SEUS whith no problem.Just wondering why you cant do sR you maybe unlockt bootloader,this may be a reason.
Have you tried SEUS in repair mode? That should definitely work (as in, get you a clean firmware). Depending on your current firmware (your /system/build.prop ) that may not be helpful because you might still get a normal qwerty firmware; in that case, just root your firmware and edit /system/build.prop as described in a thread by me about forcing SEUS to flash a firmware of your choice; HERE.
