Quick question: Firmware Version - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Simple question. I see a lot of talk about firmware version 026. I guess this is the latest version. I have an ATT branded X10a that I flashed with the Global Generic 2.1 software. Do I have the latest 026 version? When I check the software info from the SE service menu the only number I see that looks like a SE firmware number is listed under S1 Boot Version: 1226-2253 R8A013.
What's the best way to check firmware version?
I want to make sure I have 026 because I want to install the Dark themes, and it says you can brick the phone if you are not on 026.
Thanks

The latest (2.1) fw
R2BA026 is 1.6
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

So I have the latest or no? Sorry for being dense...

2.0.A.0.504 is the latest for 2.1
R2BA026 is the latest for 1.6
To answer your question, yes, you have the lateset firmware.

So you're on a custom firmware and you don't know how to flash *.sin files?
Ah well, use flashtool 0.2.3 or the latest and make a ftf out of the amss.sin file.
Then flash it. If you don't know what you're doing then I would suggest you not to do it. You won't really gain anything with this software-vise.
Sorry to use this thread, but I have a noob question related to this... What does baseband MEANS for X10 / Android system?
I know what baseband means, but I fail to understand the difference between .412, .54 and so on...
I have baseband 2.0.52, kernel 2.6.29 [email protected] #1 on FreeX10 2.2.1 b3, and I don't know if I should update the baseband or not.
Thanks for help!

can't understand what do U want. actually what version of firmware do U want? 1.6 or 2.1? if 2.1 so just update through SEUS compation.
Use repair function in SEUS

Just repair with seus. That will give you latest fw.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Moved to correct section
im currently on 2.1, repair doesnt give me the correct stock-ware, my point is trying to make it back to 1.6a, then using SEUS to update it to 2.1, which make the phone have the original update...
thanks
If you want the latest stock rom, a repair in SEUS will give you exactly that. No need to pass by 1.6xxxx.
By yor device serial number, the repair procedure will give you the latest kit for your device / provider / country.
What do you have after the repair?
it said no updates availeble, but my operator had 2.1 already, but im not on it, i flashed it to 2.1 before stock's firmware comes out..
seus repair wont give anything=.=

Basebands collection for X8

I've made bundles for FlashTool, for X8i and X8a, with basebands 006 and 015.
Kernel and baseband are related to each other, so if you have baseband 006, you'll have 2.0.2.A.0.24 kernel, and with baseband 015 you'll get 2.1.1.A.0.6 kernel.
If you try to flash latest kernel to phone with baseband 006, you'll get infinite boot loops. This can be fixed by simply flashing correct bundle (kernel/baseband).
This will NOT wipe userdata!
All basebands are in Xperia X8 folder on Mediafire.
Currently, these basebands are available:
X8i - E15i
Baseband 006 - kernel 2.0.2.A.0.24
Baseband 015 - kernel 2.1.1.A.0.6
X8a - E15a
Baseband 006 - kernel 2.0.2.A.0.24
Baseband 015 - kernel 2.1.1.A.0.6
Every baseband version is: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-534040xy where xy is either 06 or 15, depending on which baseband you flash.
Update: jerpelea's CM7, racht's ports, as-mario's MIUI and ponanovn's MiniCM port are all made for latest kernel and baseband 015. Nice to see that, thanks
Enjoy, and be careful, don't brick the phone, and if you do, don't blame me, you're doing this on your own risk!
Possibly a method for restoring signal issue when SEUS fails

what is the advantage of this?? not meaning to be rude
The advantage is that you can change baseband as it please you. Why you'd want to I have no clue
Context: http://source.android.com/porting/telephony.html
All four basebands are now tested, packed and uploaded to Mediafire
good job !

He said "If you try to flash latest kernel to phone with baseband 006"
not to flash latest baseband to phone with old kernel. this is your status, you flash the latest baseband to old kernel.
what blagus said about infinite bootloops is when you flash the latest kernel (2.1.1) to phone with baseband 006, your case is the opposite. understand?
I try to flash the whenever i flash it says driver error to reinstall driver in flashtool folder, PC Companion run ok and install gordon gate also show i got latest driver,
but still got driver need to reinstall, what is the problem expert
Does PC Companion get your device into flash mode? If so, then redownload flashtool. If not - get your X8 connected and go into hardware manager of your computer, find your connected phone and erase all the drivers, then reinstall PC Companion for new drivers.
done that, uninstall everything and driver,
start all over again but result still the same,
keep asking to install and reinstall driver from driver folder

My X8 firmware is 2.1 update 1 with baseband 06 build version 2.0.2.a.0.24
I have an infinte loop when using this file "Baseband 006 - X8i_2.1.1.A.0.6_Baseband_006.7z"
EDITED:
when i use "Baseband 015 - X8i_2.1.1.A.0.6_Baseband_015.7z", i have my baseband in 015, but the build number become 2.0.1.a.0.47.
if i want to upgrade to 2.1.1.a.0.6, what baseband should i use?
Hello guys, just one quick question, why is it that upgrading to baseband 15 from 06 the phone requests the sim network unlock code?
I am using the same SIM card, and the sim card belongs to the phone operator, so i don't understand why is it asking for network unlock code if it is the same sim.
I have found a couple of threads here on xda that recommend to click on the Dismiss button, but if i do that, i don't get any signal.
I have donwgraded again to 06, when i did the upgrade to 15 i also installed floyo 1.0 via xrecovery and everything loaded perfectly except that i have no signal, so it is useless.
I have tried going manually to the settings of mobile networks, but it says that it is not able to register on the network.
Thank you for any tips,
Regards

Did you tried flashing your phone by SEUS to upgrade this directly from SE???
Thanks for replying biscoitu, the phone came with 1.6, so i changed the SI because mine was not ready for 2.1. The new software that was updated via PC Companion is:
2.0.1.A.0.47 with baseband 06, 2.1-update1
And it is working fine, but now the pc companion says that its up to date, and it is not updating to the latest baseband, so i downloaded the ones included in this thread and flashed with flashtool, when i reboot i get asked for the network unlock code, if i dismiss it does not work.
I don't understand why it asks for it, if it is the same sim card. I have visited a couple of websites that sell codes for the x8 but when i confirm with my IMEI they say that they don't have available.

Basebands for X10 Mini Pro (still looking for U20a firmwares)

Thanks to pbezza, I've finally extracted basebands for U20i.
Kernel and baseband are related to each other, so if you have baseband 006, you'll have 2.0.2.A.0.24 kernel, and with baseband 015 you'll get 2.1.1.A.0.6 kernel.
If you try to flash latest kernel to phone with baseband 006, you'll get infinite boot loops. This can be fixed by simply flashing correct bundle (kernel/baseband).
This will NOT wipe userdata!
All basebands are in Xperia folder on Mediafire.
U20i
Baseband 006 - kernel 2.0.2.A.0.24 - done
Baseband 015 - kernel 2.1.1.A.0.6 - done
U20a
Baseband 006 - kernel 2.0.2.A.0.24 - looking for firmware

Hi Blagus,
I am unsure what you are trying to say.
My research indicates that hardware for U20i and U20a are the same but something in the software controls 2 different frequency options.
This stands to reason as having all options turned on would reduce battery life.
Now you seem to be saying you know how to switch the baseband option on a U20i to include options for U20a and vice versa.
Am I right or have I miss read you.
I am currently running U20a software but the baseband is still using U20i frequeny options. It was originally a U20i phone.
This is a good idea.
Hi Blagus,
I have looked at your other posts and it seems you can edit something in the Kernel to turn on all or some baseband options.
Yes I want to be able to do that 2.
i am running U20a Software but as the U20a baseband options have been turned off I cant get the service provider i preffer.
Looking at your Media Files it seems you edit a file in the Kernael Folder.
I can send you a copy of said Kernel Folder but I would think you edit a specific file. Can you tell me which one please so I can send it too u.
Thankyou.
Hello,
I need to update the kernel to the latest one in my X10mini pro, how can I do it?
Tried allready with SEUS but does not update.

It could be done if someone gives me links to U20i and U20a 2.1.1.A.0.6 FW.
Alternatively, change build.prop to CDA number which received latest 2.1.1.A.0.6 update and try again.
is there a different baseband version for 2.1.1.A.0.6?? i have 015...for 2.1.1.A.0.6
I've uploaded U20i basebands. Thanks to pbezza!
No problem blagus. If you want u20i firmware 2.1 v2.0.A.0.504 with baseband 006, get the UK firmware from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=826455
I currently have this one installed to confirm it's version for you.
Blagus, once a full firmware flash has occurred, is it possible to simply flash between basebands and the phone will still boot correctly? I'm asking this because I wish to test CM7 but it requires baseband 006 and I currently have 015. It's easy enough to do a full flash I suppose but to hop between basebands could be handy.

hi, how to update my baseband on my U20i???
I have the 006...
thanx
... and solved my problem, thanks all!
Just a quick question, the kernel/baseband combo on a decripted firmware folder is the kernel.*** file?
Hello here!
This is a silly question(I know), but I managed to flash the 015 baseband to my Mimmi, but my kernel still being 2.0.2.A.0.24. Did it have to change as well with the new baseband to 2.1.1.A.0.6? I got some reboots but I let it pass. Not happening anymore. I think they'll happen later again won't they?
Long story short I'm planning to flash this rom to my phone and I'm wondering if it would be harmful? Or the problem with basebands/kernels is the loop issue?
Thanks.
hi blagus thanks for this awesome thread. just a quick Q my phhone is currently on 2.0.A.0.504 with baseband 54404006. can i use the following(U20i_2.1.1.A.0.6_baseband_015.7z) baseband link and i will end up with this 2.1.1.A.0.6 baseband 53404015
just asking because reendor2005 said to me i have to flas the firmware and not the baseband is this included in the file

Upgrading to Latest Official Firmware?

Hey guys!
I just bought a used Galaxy S2 I9100 and I love it!
It's the "factory international" unlocked one.
Even had to buy a wall adaptor for the European plug to work in Canada.
I would like to update it and trust me, I do search, but it's ever confusing!
The previous owner already rooted it, but I would just like to unroot it and go to official latest firmware. Starting fresh.
I visited this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 and I know I have to get my downloads from there and flash with odin, but I have NO IDEA which one to download.
Here's my phone info currently:
Android Version: 2.3.3
Baseband Version: I9100XWKE1
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513

Build Number: GINGERBREAD.XWKE7
I live in Canada and I'm using Rogers as my carrier (they don't carry the I9100).
I absolute love this phone so far but I would just like to get to the latest firmware.
Can anybody point me to the firmware I want to get?
Thanks folks, and have a happy holiday!

I'd look for the baseband version associated with bell since they do sell the i9100. They use the same baseband frequencies as Rogers.
kernels are interchangeable. Always backup your current ROM before upgrading for sure just in case. I've even gone as far as trying different modem firmware to try and improve signal strength and data speeds.
As long as you have a backup of what currently works you can't go wrong really
oops...didn't read the part about unrooting. I've never gone back to un root before but I think you can flash an unrooted kernel through Odin. Sorry I can't be of more help add to which one.
I'd still look for stock Bell firmware

So far everything seems okay.
I noticed that the Voice Talk app crashes now after I say a command.
I also got rid of that yellow half screen problem!
I think my phone is unrooted now because I didn't see a yellow triangle at boot, but the thing that's weird is I still have the superusr app and in my Kernel version it says "root".
Do you recommend me reflash my phone to Bell firmware?
If I do so, wouldn't I get all the Bell branded bloatware stuff on my phone or no?
