this work the way to return back from nordic firmware to orginal firmware.

i will like you to share my knowledge regarding returning back to own country firmware from the nordic 2.1
first of all download the bin4ry update tool and firmware but not any firmware but 1.6 firmware
downgrade your firmware from 2.1 nordic to 1.6 any countries firmware should work
then change the value of build.prop to your orginal handset value or your choice value.for more information about the value you can search blog
then try to update it with seus. if it say you have latest firmware then repair it with seus and if seus dont give option for repair then use pc companion .
if you are lucky then you will get the latest firmware or downgrade your firmware to your choice of firmware and that is great for now cauz if there is any update for your choice of firmware then you will get update so need to wait for while
i know this work cauz i have done this by first of all i was using nordic 2.1 thou my orginal firmware is uk generic then i downgrade my firmware to netherland 1.6 and then i change the value/replace it with my orginal build.prop and now this mornign i repair my phone with seus and it is working like acharm 2.1 ..hurry guys ...
i have included my build.prop 1.6 so this should work for each and every one

I also can't find where that decryptor is, to change blob_fs to .sin files for flashtool

Use the NL one in the link above, root the phone using Androot, copy the build.prop from the first post to /system/usr and replace the old one, then open PC Companion while your phone is connected and click update.

Flashing android 2.1 generic u.k rom

Hi I just got an x10 for a relative because it was a really cheap deal. It has 3 branded android 1.6 software still on it. Can anyone tell me where to get the generic uk software and what to use to flash it onto the phone. I was going to use Omnius to flash it but they don't have generic uk on there, just generic global and some other generic international.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Can you not just use SEUS or PC Companion to update this to the latest 2.1 software?
Both of those progs are available from the SE website.
I would go with that for a quick official fix
Failing this look for Flash Tool in this forum and follow the guide.
Flashtool is available from here along with the generic firmware for the x10i
Moved to proper forum.
Thanks for your reply. I have upgraded it to 2.1 using seus but as i said in my first post. its branded to 3 and i want to have unbranded generic software so that i can upgrade to 2.3 when that arrives
Just click on the link that I put into my first post to flashtool ... on that page you can download global generic firmware and flashtool to flash it with.
THere is also an excellent tutorial on how to use flashtool by rendeiro2005 here

[Q] Return to original FW

Hi,
My X10 e Vodafone branded, I replaced the firmware to ARO GENERIC in order to get GB.
But now my phone needs to go to service.
How do I do to get vodafone's firmware again so I have warranty??
Is there any way to change something to seus install original rom??
Thank's
You need to get root, edit build.prop file and change CDA to Vodafone.
You can find right CDA here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824711
After change you will flash it through SEUS.
Thanks you very much.
I hope it works.

Manual Update to Stock 2.3.3 x10

Hi guys,
I am on rogers here in Canada, and we did not recieve the 2.3 update for my branded x10i.
I wanted to manually update to 2.3, and was wondering if I can do that.
Can i just download the Generic version 2.3.3 build 3.0.1.G.0.75 from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
(which says its meant for unbranded x10i's) and use it on my branded x10i from rogers and follow the instructions to root and install? Would it work? Or what are the procedures?
I ultimately want stock 2.3 rooted for my phone.
Thanks!
of course it works
just put the downloaded .ftf file in the firmware folder of your extracted flashtool
then flash it
done
It works flawlessly dude. I made that with my X10a Rogers about 20 days ago

How do I trick SEUS to install another customization?

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..
