what will happen if i update my rooted X10i? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

do i need to unroot it before updating or is it okay?
its branded singtel...not using any custom rom...just rooted it.

You don't have to unroot to upgrade....but when u upgrade you will lose root....which is easily solved using super one click.

Since you have already rooted, change your SI number to 1237-0334 which is Singapore Generic (unbranded). No operator crap and pure SE firmware.

how do you change your SI?

i opened the default.prop
which values do i need to edit can u tell me?
there is no such text as mentioned here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8975093&postcount=6
ro.semc.version.cust=****-****
ro.product.name=X10_****-****
edit: i went to build.prop in system folder and edited the above mentioned values
but its not working.
i also heard changing SI no longer works

I upgraded a few days ago to .435 and had to re-root but it was definitely worth it.
I used Super One Click to root and installed Busybox from market, Titanium Backup and Xrecovery. Worked like a charm.

so whats new in .435 other than multitouch?

Make sure you're connected to your wifi as the update will be 150mb or so.
Alternatively, you can download Sony Ericsson update Service SEUS and update it that way.
If there is no update available on your carrier then you should probably try debranding - although I'm not sure if it voids the warranty of the phone in your country.
Got a stupid question here What is debranding?

thank you all for the ifo
By the way can someone explain me what R1...R2... mean? is this due the fact dates, coutrys?
Can`t someone here try to organize firmwares by release? I think this way would be very helpfull for all of us 10 asses
There is a thread that exists here which has all the firmwares according to countties written down...the 029 version u hav mentioned is the chinese or japanese rom...not sure which...just check...

I don't think they mean anything.
Probably only versions.
The list so far:
R1EA018
R1EA025
R1FA014
R1FA016
R1FB001
R2BA020
R2BA023
R2BA024
R2BA026
Some of them are SO-01B only or X10a/X10i only.
Tnks for this info bro ;-)

Debranding is basically giving you a generic device rather than for example being on Orange, in which they have put apps on that they want, ( in my case it was traffic tv).
If you have a branded phone then you do not get updates as fast as a generic one

It`s actual one, but JP soft for DOMOCO SO-01B.

can x10a with nordic fw update to 2.1 with no problems?

i used bin4rys flashtool to flash the nordic firmware onto my at&t x10a (it worked flawlessly btw) ive been seeing posts saying that because mine was originally an x10a i cant upgrade to 2.1 through pc companion. I also read that 2.1 will mess up my 3g, i have my 3g info written down and can manually put it in without any problems so would i still have a problem?

No, bin4ry says the radios are different and whatnot. You didn't read the other threads. Best to wait and let the devs take a look at the firmwares first rather than blindly flashing.
Go back to a legitimate x10a firmware and wait -- otherwise yes there is a possibility that you wont be able to upgrade through SEUS at all.
-.- well in a way this works out cause now i finally have "allow non market access" as an option. Soooo our best option is to wait for a flashtool for 2.1?

It does NOT. You can flash your phone with Nordic but you can NOT go anywhere from there on. Because SEUS will tell you that you have the latest FW and PCC says that can not download the file for you phone,

[Q] Anyone knows how to install the new 2.3?

I have an x10i that was an x10a(Not really sure what my phone is now), im running "Eclair Bitsnacker.com v2.6, BB 2.1.54, KV 2.6.29, Buuild number 2.1A,0.435"
Do anyone know how to update to 2.3? I want to run the CM7.
The link on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=927140, the MT enabler is dead and so as the gb_alpha_0008 is dead.
Use the GB by J from here
Just unpack the file, flash the baseband then flash the rom.

just FYI, your phone will always be X10a, it doesn't matter if it says X10i or x, it's whatever the Dev wrote. I changed mine to say 'denenatse' :-D

because my tittle says member,does not mean im new in this,im in the flashing and modding bussiness since 2007,i ve made a lot of patches and.... whatever,thats my point.
I think its easier to install wolfs rom

no difference IMO
Well i just asked because with adb mask controller says that i dont have busybox intsalled in the pre-rooted version,but...anyways,i will find the way to solve it.
just dont find where to close the thread,like on another forums,well,some mod,please close.
i tried both
stock se is good
prerooted is good, but sendin files through any file explorer apps using bluetoh
gave me force close
