I am using Xperia X10 and updated with BETA 3 2.2 two months back, now i want to unroot it and go back to the genuine version 2.1. Please help.
download the firmware files provided, for safety, flash to 1.6 then update with SEUS.

can you explain? I am very new to these kind of techie things.
Just use sony ericsson PC companions repair function. Its like having your phone new again.

You sure that'll work? At the end of the day I get an error when SEUS/PC Companion finished the download and wanted to install.
So what I do is use the Global Generic 2.1.A.0.435 Firmware and flash it using FlashTool 0.2.6. I think that should make it official rite?

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,

i have the x10flash but idk how to use it, i used the nordic flash bin4ry made yesterday and it bricked my cell, i reran it and it fixed my cell, but still i was s.o.o.l. because seus and pc companion wouldnt help, so idk what to do (yea i shouldve looked this stuff up before blindly flashing i know)

Can anyone with x10a verfity that the nordic flash method gets you 2.1?
Hi all, I can't connect my Xperia x10 to my computer to connect to SEUS or even apply the patch for dual touch. Is there a way to do it from memory card. Please go easy I'm a bit dim when it comes to all this stuff. So step by step instructions would be much appriciated
I think that isn't possible.

if your phone is rooted you can do it with xrecovery
You can only apply dualtouch with USB or OTA.
It is not possible via xRecovery sorry.

Ota never tells me when an update is available but when I plug it into seus then low and behold an update exists! Still on stock android but rooted until a stable 2.2 or even 2.3 becomes available with everything working.e.g camera and camcorder.thanks for all the help.looks like an ebay order for a data cable is needed.

Hi xda developers.
I am currently using FreeX10 rom in my X10i.
I was just wondering if it is possible to switch back to original Sony Ericsson 2.1 rom?
Yes it is possible. Use flash tool or SEUS or PC Companion.
Hi...you are wrong.....SEUS and PC Companion cant recognize the phone......the only solution is flash tool with the downloaded official rom.......

They can't? I haven't used them in a while so don't know. So they changed it to detect rooted phones?

Get your facts right. I had done it a lot of times on my phone, it always recognize my phone no matter what rom I use.

I can agree with both of you.
I am using wolf's tw7.1 and wolf's 4.5 on my phones.
My main phone i have flashed to stock using SEUE many time with no problem but my other phone it just says that it has current firmware.
On that phone i falshed to an older firmware hopping SEUE would detect it with no go.
So in the end one phone flashs perfect and then 2 min later go to do my other phonen nothing so i always have to use flashtools to fix it.
Ok, I had to get a warranty exchange for my x10a. I reflashed to the at&t Rom from here but its not the same. In wondering how can I pull everything from the new phoneand put it on the old phone before I send it back. Basically flashing the old phone to look like the new one so they won't change me for blowing the warranty.
Thanks in advanced

Find the At&t firmware and flash to stock. What is wrong with the old phone?
Sent from my lt15i using xda premium
Look in settings>about phone and you can see which firmware the new phone is on. Then you can flash that fw or post here if you cant find it.

On the old phone, the speaker stopped working meaning I would have to either put my phone on speaker or use a headset. Not really a big issue except that im military and alot of the time I can't wear a Bluetooth and its impractical to have it on speaker.
The new phone is
2.1-update 1-fw
2.1.65-bbq'd
2.6.29 kernal
2.1.A.0.492 build
One of the major things that I notice is the at&t bootscreen on the new one and the se bootscreen on the old

This link will get you to the 1.6 At&t file for your old phone. You will have to create a FTF and flash w/ flashtool. If you want to get to 2.1 afterwards on your old phone, just update with pc companion but you don't have to do that since you are returning it.

Did you try connecting to PC Companion or SEUS after you flashed back to the AT&T Rom. Or on the stock rom isn't there somewhere in settings you can check for OTA updates.

See the flashtool guide in the stickies at the top of the page. You're looking for how to convert sin files into ftf files.

I was just wondering, guyz... from where wotan gets all those firmwares? I really doubt they buy every phone from every region...
If we manage to discover their sources, we might get unlimited firmwares again.
Yea it's called Sony Ericsson PC Companion.
So you're telling me they get every firmware because they have EVERY phone of every region? it's ridiculous. If its true, they may emulate tha phones to get the firmwares they want. Question is: HOW?
They use EMMA.
Sent from my SK17a using xda premium
Thank you again, Chavito. Maybe we can get a tool for flashing the firmware we want directly from SEUS.
It would be amazing to have access to EMMA!

EMMA itself is easy to get. Hard is a valid login to use it.
