[Q] Rogers on Demand for x10a @x10i firmware - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey guys.
i've got a rogers x10a running the NORDIC 2.1 firmware.
rogers on demand mobile is the only thing that wont work because the app says "sorry, this service is not supported on this device (SEMC_X10i
)"
is there any way to convince the app i'm an x10a without having to reflash my phone and backup/restore all of my customization?

Can I install any firmware on my X10?
At the moment I have a german X10 with Baseband 1.0.14.
Can I upgrade to 1.0.16 without any problems?
Yes, when you have an branded Version, u must use the instructions to debrand it. But u can upgrade without any Problems. When Your phone is unbranded use the Sony Ericsson Update service, it will find the update. Save your old frimware when u decide to debrand it, so u can brand it back for warranty reasons.
Sounds great.
You have to know, that this is my first Android device. Before, I jsut used webOS and WinMo.
What tools do I need do 1. drebrand, 2. save the old firmware and 3. put the new firmware on the device?
I'm using a Mac, but can use Windows if needed.
Thanks for answer

This might be a stupid question but I'm running R1FA016 (was originally running R1FA014, Vodafone UK but flashed the phone) however when I go into the service menu it states that it's customized. I was under the impression that R1FA016 is unbranded.
To get into the service menu press menu, back, back, menu, back, menu, menu, back when the phone is locked.
I'm getting my info from the first option 'Model Info'.
Any ideas or am I being stupid?
I have R1FA016 version x10, bought it from o2 in uk, its not sim locked and it doesnt apear to be branded either, but it says customized too

Oficially just one update behind, but considering the amount of total updates, yes you're far behind

Factory Unlocked X10i Firmware Update?

Hi all,
I just got my X10i and its factory unlocked, I have one question. My firmware is still 1.0.14 and SEUS and PC Companion tells me its the most recent firmware. I'm wondering are there anyone else who have a factory unlocked X10i that are still stuck at the 1.0.14 firmware? Also, is it normal for the phone to not have the firmware upgrade despite it being out for around a month ago? Thanks!
I'm in the same boat as you. I'm in the US.
There is another thread that discusses ways to get the newer firmware. Please go search and read up in that thread.

I have a unlocked 10i and I live in the usa and I was able tp get the update. I'm starting to think that getting a update comes down to random luck
Hey Guys,
You may want to verify that the hardware and the firmware match.
When the X10i/a first came out, a solution for debranding became available which entailed using a generic firmware. Unfortunately what ended up happening was that X10a that were flashed to X10i (and vice versa) were said to be no longer supported by SEUS.
Remove your battery and verify that it's an X10i, then go to your service menu and verify that the firmware is also for an X10i.
If the two do not match, don't worry...there is a way to fix it;

Thanks for the responses! I'm pretty sure mines is an X10i running on generic firmware as its factory unlocked to begin with. On a side note I checked the service menu and under Model Info and it says, "Brand: Customized", what does this mean? I'm starting to think the updates depend on version of the phone. I have a Singapore version so that's probably why I can't update yet.
very nice sir
i want to update.my phone is only vibrate, sometime power on butwithy sim
restart ? Any idea?

Rooted, Installed X10i onto X10a: How come I was able to update firmware OTA?

I debranded, then rooted my X10a (Rogers), installing X10i firmware R24. When I checked for software update from the phone, not through SEUS, I was able to update to R26.
Why was I able to do this? I was under the impression that rooted phones running a different firmware from the model (X10i on X10a phone) could not receive updates at all.
Rooting doesn't prevent you from getting updates.

You are able to upgrade because the phone is recognized as a X10i and it gets X10i firmware through update servers. It's all in .prop files in /system/ directory on phone.
If you change your firmware values you will receive other updates. But take care when editing, because if you edit the wrong line your phone needs a full reflash

I am looking to change my x10 rogers to x10i, let me know the procedure. Thanks.
Thanks for the replies! Does this mean that when Spain/Japan/etc. get their 2.1 updates that I will be able to get it OTA?
CMXD, I used this simple method for rooting: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=740240
For debranding and X10i conversion, I went with this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=717949
Note that I debranded and converted to X10i before rooting.

[Q] Going back to Original Firmware...

I have a rooted X10a with the 026 firmware.
This is the info on it:
Model: X10a
Country: Germany
Brand: Customized
if I want to update to 2.1 legitimately through Rogers, do I have to flash my phone back to the Original Firmware that came with Rogers, or will SEUS do it automatically.
Sorry if this has been asked before...
Thank you

in future, to flash phone to 2.1 by rogers you could try default.prop method, a then just use Repair in PC Companion

[Q]Help:how to SEUS be used on Rogers X10a upgraded to 2.1 & downgraded to 1.6 rogers
Flash my X10a rogers branded to Nordic firmware and didn't like this 2.1, but I downgraded my x10a to rogers 1.6, Now I've noticed SEUS do not recognize my phone and says you have already latest software installed, although it should allow to reinstall current one which it don't now.
Anyway I can have SEUS " sony ericsson update service " in future ?
Read one of the numerous "Rogers" posts on the same subject, which would have been suggested when you posted this.
