I live in Brazil, and have debranded my X10 mini pro using a generic UK firmware. What leaves me puzzled is how my phone will be treated when the 2.1 update will be available - will I get an update as a UK or as a Brazilian debranded phone? Does SE check it by software version (UK) or by location - IP or operator (Brazil)? Any ideas?

you have generic uk and then the update for you phone will be uk generic
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 ?
Sent from my E10i using XDA App
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..
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.
I have the X10i Orange UK Firmware on 2.1-update1 but I'm living in Egypt now,i tried many many times SESU & PC Companion but all the time i get that i have the latest software installed..my Customization version is 1232-0808_R2B and my Baseband version is 2.0.46 ..anybody knows what I can do to get the final update of 2.3.3 without using custom roms?
My phone is a Nordic Generic phone. But I did install the Norwegian Generic rom to it, but becuase this is a Telenor branded one I want to go back to the Nordic one.
Tried changing the build.prop file to trick SEUS to download the Nordic firmware but it just throws me a error about my firmware being customized before it starts downloading the firmware.
Does anyone know how to trick SEUS or maybe know of any Nordic firmware (1257-6087) to download? Old or new doesn't madder..
Flashtool the Europe Generic one.

I know I could do that. But I want to have the Nordic one just in case I need to send in my phone for service.
A couple of years ago when I used the SE X10 Mini I just changed the build.prop file to change firmware/branding.
Is this possible somehow with Xperia S?
After some testing it seams like the Nordic Generic (1257-6087) firmware does not exist..
I now have the Norway Generic (1257-8821) on my phone. When I tried changing build.prop and cust.prop to match 1257-6087 PCC would always turn off and check my phone before downloading any firmware. But when I change them to match the Swedish Generic (1257-6919) it downloads the firmware to blob_fs before checking the phone, it does complain and does not update the phone but since the files have been downloaded I can update it with flashtool.
My SI number is 1257-6087 but it does not seam to be any firmware with that customization number.. strange..
