[Q] Flash X10a running x10i software back to x10a - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I flashed my phone from a Rogers X10a running 1.6 to nordic when 2.1 came out to get the update earlier. Now that the dual-touch update has come out I`ve found that I can`t update the software from my handset or my pc and am wondering if I can revert to x10a. A lot of the links people have shared in regards to this problem are outdated so it`s not really clear what can be done.
Whenever I try updating through my phone I get a message saying: ``New software available. Not enough memory, restart your phone before downloading.`` No matter how many times I restart i still get this message. Any ideas would be much appreciated
Thanks,

Uses SEUS fron sony ericsson website by the option repairing the phone
Sent from XDA Premium from my X10a rooted running 2.2 rendeiro2005 cyanogen rom

thanks for the quick reply
Unfortunately whenever I try to use the repair feature of SEUS or PC companion, it tells me that my phone doesnt have any software available and aborts the repair process. Is there a way i can flash to the latest rogers firmware?

Surprisingly, Rogers has the latest firmware:
2.1.1.A.0.6: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=960598
Use the graphical flash tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746

Problem After Unroot

Ok, I unrooted my x10a back to rogers R1FA014. I open SEUS and select update. The proper files download and begin to install. When the install bar is finished, it says update failed and leaves me with a snazzy yellow question mark upon booting. Does anybody know why it is not updating properly or how i can fix it?
Help is much appreciated, thanks.
Edit: also when i go to settings to check for software update, it says it is at the latest software, when it clearly is not.
Rogers isn't a big fan of ota updates me friend.
oh, well still i get the yellow question mark when doing the SEUS update.

Just try the whole unrooting process again. Are you x10a or x10i? Also, try PC Companion rather than SEUS. I've had issues with PC Comp, but found SEUS okay. It may be the other way round for you.
I have an x10a, and i've tried updating multiple times, but i'll try it again with PC Companion, never know, I'll let you guys know.
Tried updating through PC companion and SEUS again, many times, and nothing worked. Even had to reinstall the unroot package numerous times before the yellow exclamation mark went away.
if your trying to update to 026 for x10a, do debrand method with pc companion. blob files for 026 x10a generic are on debrand site. replace those two files right before pc comp finishes downloading. if u need help pm me

Remove your battery and wait 30 seconds, than put the battery back in the phone and connect it in to your pc while you're holding the back key (before you connect the phone to your pc, run the SEUS)

Ok, I was able to install without any issues. I'm running 2.1.
I think I saw a way to unbrick the phone using a debranding method. You might try searching. Good luck.

Update to Android 2.1 - Help needed.

hi bro
im new here. i picked up the x10i frm dubai.
and unknowingly update to r26 version. im unable to update to android 2. the pc companion says me to put the fone in flash mode, i do the same thing in the picture, but instead the fone turns on... please help. thank u
Take the battery for 10 seconds, put it back in and run it again.
Hi bro, I faced exactly the same problem but now i have finally updated to Android 2.1, so maybe i can help.
1) Check if you have any antivirus installed. disable it or run your PC in safe mode with networking.
2) check whether update for your kit has been launched here-
http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/products/2010/11/09/these-kits-have-the-update/
Since your phone is from dubai, just like mine, maybe update is not out yet. Does PC companion show 'update available'?
3) Forget SEUS, update from here-

hi there, i am in dubai and i got rooted x10i running on 2.1, what i can suggest is that root your 1.6 x10i, then change into global genirec firmware, use the SEUS to update into 2.1, you'll be having it plus market app will be added to your phone.. its nice to have market app here in uae..

(RESOLVED)my x10 mini is bricked! boot looping..

(RESOLVED)hey guys, i've been looking everywhere for about 3 days now and really don't know how to resolve my phone's problem. I bought the rogers e10a version of the x10 mini and really wanted to update my phone to the latest 2.1 version. As most of us know, you have to debrand your phone first as SEUS as well as sony companion will tell you that 1.6 is the lastest version. Anyways i ended up using the "build.prop.claro" file from skzBR from this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=820009&page=4) while debranding and re-used SEUS to upgrade the phone to 2.1. Now when i used this build, i got the a claro logo when i booted up the phone and i didn't ike that, so i though i could just change the the build.prop in 2.1 to the other "build.prop.vivo"... well when i did that i felt really stupid after since i then remembered it was made for the 1.6 os. So now my phone is messed up! all i get is the Sony Ericsson start screen looping over and over again.
The phone does go into recovery mode, but does not have root permission through ADB so i can't push the old build.prop.claro file back into the phones system folder.. The SEUS and pc companion programs do not work to restore the phone and give me tell me my phone has no new software to update with. Even when i try pressing the repair option through pc companion get that same message. I've tried numerous flashtools with different rom with .sin files and have has zero success. So i'm wondering if i do have a chance at this if someone has the .sin files from both rom descirbe in the link and i try reflashnig it with the latest flashtool or if omnius is my only choice here.. any help really appreciated guys.
Thanks.

Have u tried this:

RE: have you tried this
yes i have, the flashtool establishes a connection with the phone when i put it in recovery mode. When it says its flashing my phone, all ,sin files or a 2.1 generic rom seam to flash fine and whn done, it tells me " finished, now reboot phone", the phone is still stuck and looping. So i don't know if its because i'm not flashing the .sin files of the build.prop.vivo rom which i can't seam to find anywhere or what....
Hi, im a bit busy today. So just give you a link that you can try http://www.xperiax10.net/2010/04/14/debrand-your-xperia-x10-tutorial/
Hope it will help you.
i fixed it
I flashed the phone with 1.6 e10i firmware and the java flashtool and it worked. I then changed the build.prop file to a e10a file and reflashed. SEUS was able to reflasht the phone's firmware to 1.6 e10a and all is good now... thanks guys!

i am currently using now the minicm7 2.0.7 rom, and i want to revert it back to stock rom 2.1 and i cant seem to find ways on how to. i tried using seus but when i press the back button it take me to the recovery instead of seus continuing the update to 2.1.
please help me please.
Connect your usb cable to your pc
Start pc companion or sony ericsson update service and select update/repair software
Switch off device
Connect device whilst holding back button when told to do so on pc screen
And the rest should do itself, this will reflash back to totally stock android 2.1

Hi,
I'm also trying to revert back to stock firmware but facing the problem, that SEUS and PC Companion are always telling me that I already have the latest version of the software or there is no software for my phone.
How can I get back to stock firmware?

same too please help
That is why it is always recomended to take a backup of stock rom before installing any custom roms...
Hi think you have an option in SEUS to re-install even if you have the latest version.
When you have this message, you can select "re-install" or something like that.
A popup will warn you that you will lose all of your data.
Hope that help

As the post says just above there is am option to repair/reinstall or something like that it just downloads the firmware, wipes your phone and your phone is back to stock.
OR
If you have Mini Pro, look my signature how to flash stock.
For all solution : use WotanServer because that is the website that can flash amy stock firmware with your country setting FOR FREE...
