well first off what im about to say is dangerous if you dont know what your doing and can brick your phone! now that were past that lets see what we can do. since you have an x10i your in luck. a dev named bin4ry released a flash tool that will flash to global generic x10i with 2.1. go look for it in the android development thread (his icon is a penguin :B) download the flashtool and follow the guide posted in his thread. If you have windows xp 32 bit you should be in good shape, vista and 7 are known to have problems. if u need any help or have anymore questions feel free to post here
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
not out yet... according to this... http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/products/2010/11/
or if you want to switch to global or uk generic (or any other for that matter)... this might be easier for the non-tech..

Check your SI against the list on the SE site. If you do not know your SI, turn off phone and look under battery.
The list has been updated every day so far this week.
Seems that the 1238 8955 is not out yet.
Well im a noob so..i think the best thing for me is not to try to flash my phone ... plus the thing that im using win 7 32bit.
I really appreciate your replys guys...
i just checked the SE site..and it seems that the update for my phone is not out yet.
i think i'll just wait a bit more for the update in orded not to brick my phone
Thanks again for your quick replys and help.
Cheers!!

@ Greg
Just connect the phone (X10) to your PC and it will pop up with different installations. Install the Sony Ericsson PC Companion and it will tell you that there’s an update ready.
Then follow the instructions. This is a firmware update!
That worked for me!
My version is 1.0.16"
My phone allready have 1.0.16... (not upgraded it)
I also want it !
hhhmmmmmm, the fun that ill have come tuesday!!
Yes there is a 16 update around and no i can't update to it either...maybe it's generic vs carrier again - that's why we need root/custom roms!
I've got the .16 upgrade on my phone, I don't notice much of a change though.
firmware update
hello,
i am from india and got my phone on the 1 april black.yes there is a firmwre upgrade,upgraded it to 1.6 from 1.4

even iam from india iam on .14 but whenever i check it states "firmware is upto-date".
Just upgraded mine from 14 to 16 last night by using Sony Ericsson Update Service. This is a baseband firmware update, so you won't be able to update via Android's update firmware feature.
Hello, in france, via SEUS the latest FW is still the 1.0.14. And I still have poping and cracking. Hope the 1.0.16 solve this issue.
Best regards
I'm located in Belgium and I also can't update to .16 software.
boy does this phone need 2.1!!!!!!!!!! its a gonner without it i am afraid. functionality and stability from 2.1 firmware will bring out the beast in this phone. 1.6 right now is too limited for what this phone is capable off so SONY dont let us wait too long! i know min issue would be adding media and timescape to 2.1 but it needs to be done!
Mine is a Vodafone UK Handset, SEUS is saying mine is up to date.
Model X10i
BaseBand. 1.0.14
Kerbel Verison. 2.6.29-rel

Looks like Vodafone are lagging with a firmware release.

Go to Sonys webbpage, dowload and install the software update service, follow the guide for X10 and install the latest update. It is easy to do and the last firmware is 1.0.16
Any Q?? you just ask.
Regards.

Ive done all that, it says my phone has the latest firmware on it. Currently i have firmware 1.0.14
Is this another delay with Vodafone being slow to release software?
No this is Sony Ericson soft and has nothing to do with Vodaphone. I just ran the program my self and had no problem at all. Just try it again.

It has more than you think. If the phone is branded then Vodaphone has to approve the update before it can be delivered through SEUS.
This is the same issue i'm facing with 3 Denmark, the phone has ONE extra app(3MobileTV) BUT that means that 3DK has to approve ALL software updates from SE before it can be installed...
This is why we desperately need root/custom roms
Ok, thank´s for updating me on that. But i still think it´s strange.

As the title says...
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.
Wow... That's the quickest response I've ever had to any question, anywhere.. including when I asked my wife if she wanted me to buy her a new handbag she'd been drooling over!!

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.

sadly SEUS tells me any time i connect to it ..that i have latest update !!!
From what you have said it seems the 2.1 isnt out on your network, I'm going to assume your phone is branded. By that i mean, locked to your provider with a customised firmware. If you cannot wait i suggest rooting and debranding, i believe you can visit this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=683793 . thats the one i used as i am also rather noobish, however its easy to follow and will flash 2.1 on your phone.
Hope this helps
@puremods -
from your arc unlock screen -
press the following keys
Menu back back menu
back menu menu back
go into the service info menu..
go into model info..
tell us what it says in there...
^ guy above me, i have the same problem im not very tech savvy but i did the secret menu thing and it said
country: Singapore
Carrier: Singtel
anyway, Im on T-Mobile USA, and i heard there is update out (2.1) in Singapore, but my phone says its up to date its still on 020 firmware.
is there a way to update to 2.1 without rooting, i heard of the flash tool but the guy didn't give very clear instructions.
so if someone can link me to that thread and also give me VERY detailed instructions it would be greatly appreciated.
i worked in a college cafeteria for a year just to save up enough money for my x10 and im not going to risk bricking it by doing something wrong
Mine says
Model x10i
Country: Global Generic
Brand: Generic
Which method would be best for me to upgrade? Using SEUS doesnt work, when i boot it in flash mode and press enter on the program, nothing downloads.
Sorry for posting in your thread, i just dont want to open another one.
@vengeance1990
Thanx for helping ...i hope if this link will help ...but still don't know which file i have to download
cause my experience in phone softwares and programming is little
@ im_iceman : this sequence is not working
i did it many times and still nothing
@ im_iceman:
sorry it works
model info is
Model:x10i
Country: Mena Arabic (b)
Brand customized
and if u want the software info tell me too
Ok.. unless you want to wait for your official f/w to be released you'll need to root (suggest downloading the oneclick root app - This is the simplest as it does exactly what it says on the tin!) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7913568&postcount=338
install the apk file on your phone and run it...
Then follow the instructions here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=828163

Sounds like your phone is branded to singtel.. so like puremoods you'll either need to wait, or follow the instructions I gave to him...

Hi everyone, i need some advise.
I had the global 2.1 rom on my rogers phone and it was beautiful, fast and flawless.
It did bother me i had an x10i rom on my phone, so i decided to change the codes to brazil and do the reinstall from seus to get 2.1 from brazil on my rogers phone.
This is where it went all bad, the update failed 3 times and on the forth it went through.
1. My x10 now has a few issue's, terrible signal strength, no bars in my basement. with the global rom i was getting 2 to 3 bars.
2. My wifi connects once and after the phone sleeps i need to restart the phone to get it to connect.
3. The app men u is slow, it opens fast but it takes about 7 to 8 swipes before it moves, then it sticks to where it scrolls to and again 7 to 8 swipes to get it to scroll. with the global rom the app menu was super fats no hesitation. i could go from the first app to the last very fast.
4. generally seems slower.
Here is the advice i would like to get.
1.should i reinstall the brazil rom?
2. should i go to rogers rom?
3. should i go to the global rom again?
One last thing, has anyone else had an issue with the brazilian rom?
Thanks for any tips/ advise.
i did the same with mine did not like having the 10i im not having any of your problems but I would also like to get rogers 2.1 on my phone also. but no issues with the brazil one so far.
Brazil Rom works like a charm on my x10a, I tried the nordic and the global roms but the Brazil Rom is the smoothest. Plus the app launcher doesn't lag.
I would suggest to flash the phone again through SEUS then do a factory reset for the phone and ur SD card
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
thanks guy's.
I'm glad to here it is not the brazil rom. i will reset and do the reinstall using seus and post back if i have any issue's.
Gota love the xda forums, everyone is so good at sharing experinces. makes it one of my favorite places to hang out and read.
im about to do this to my x10a as well, is this the correct code?
X10a CUST-BR NAM1 1234-4836 1232-4526 Customized BR/Sensuous black
Yes, that code is the right one for brazilian 2.1 generic fw.
Ok all is good now, seems that when the seus update failed it caused some issue's.
or doing the reset of the phone and sd card might have saved me.
Anyways all is good again.
Thanks

According to Sony Ericsson Product Blog page LAM firmware has been released isnt the one with code 1232-4388?
Not sure if this is a good thread for this but I couldn't really find a response. I got a White X10 from Rogers a while back. I already debranded it using Generic Latin America (I think Argentina?? it was something like xploid, I can't remember exactly). Now I want to change the region so I can update to 2.1 but I'm not exactly sure how. Someone told me to I should change it to Brazil but I didnt know how to do that using the SEUS? I have an X10a with R2BA026. When I do the lock screen code (menu, back back etc...) under Country it says Generic LAM (b) - Brand is Customized. Under software info it has Phone Software Version: 1227 - 4612_R2BA026 Generic. Not sure if all of this was helpful but I hope someone can help me I really dont know when or how I'll be able to update to 2.1 without changing the region
Not able to bring phone back to original using SEUS
I tried upgrading to 2.3 but had no SD, so tried bringing it back to 2.1 Brazil 1232-4526 edited the custom files and what not but SEUS downloads the something than says my phone is already up to date. I'm using US X10a generic 2.1 right now. any ideas? also tried using recovery image I made with xrecovery but phone boots to SE colored logo than restarts.
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..
