seus is sony ericsson update service.you need to first download this from the se product site.Once you install and open this application on your pc,the rest of the work is very easy and explained step by step.go for it.another thing---in future before you flash any custom rom,backup your virgin 2.1 using xrecovery so that you can always go back to this opening condition when you are troubled by the custom rom you have installed.
do press the thanks button if this helps you.
Ok, sathkartha.
I'll try it and remember to do the backup. Was my first time and i forgot to do the backup when i remembered was too late.If it works i'll post the result here and press the thanks button.
Thanks
sathkartha,
so, I've made it and followed the intructions and the message that came up for me was:
"No new software is available for your phone. Your phone already has the latest available software isntalled"
Do you have any idea what I can do from now?
Thanks
@alloha----on that screen itself,you will still see a prompt encouraging you to install--click that and move forward.
should I downgrade to 1.6 to seus works?

no need to and in anycase you cannot 'downgrade'!simply move forward from the message you have seen.

The SEUS's version is 2.11.4.11 the latest.
I was using the PC Companion and when it says to disconnect, turn off the phone and connect again the message that comes is: "there is no version. try again later"
am i doing something wrong?

Thanks for the print, but it doesn't appear for me.
I'll keep trying. Any result i post here.
look at the screen which shows to me
shuold i put some archive in /system or /system/bin?
I think I see what the problem is here:
miniCM uses a modified build.prop so that neither SEUS nor PC Companion update the firmware at any moment,that's why your SEUS says that it doesn't have nay new software for you.
I'd say that instead of trying to go back to 2.1, rather try to do a clean install of any of the custom ROMs, and please do follow the instructions to the letter, most freezing and rebooting in custom ROMs happen due to not doing a factory reset before installing them.
@Akath19 i understand. I would like to go back to 2.1, make a backup and then install a custom ROM. Because I've tried to install a lot of time the custom ROM and this problem keeps boring me.
Talking about build.pro... there is some solution for it? like change this specific build.prob for another one that makes SEUS works?
ohh
you have to flash with the flashtool
because seus or other software couldn't flash it
sorry

Hello All,
I bricked my x10, and did a PC companion update repair. I also reformatted the sd card. However, now I cannot root with z4. It is stuck on " running exloit in order to obtain root access, or that it exits and when I try to go back into the program, it says that an unexpected error had occurred and need to force stop. Once its force stopped, I cannot go back into the program. I tried restarting the phone, but the same thing happened. I reformatted my phone and card two more times, but same problem exists. Please help! Thanks!

Make sure you have USB debugging and Unknown sources checked.

Try uninstalling it. Then, make sure you download it to the sdcard before you install it using Astro or equivalent. I had a similar problem when I tried to install it straight from dropbox rather than downloading it to the sdcard first and then installing it.
I hope you are not trying to root the latest Generic 2.0.2.A.0.24 FW because that is not rootable at the moment?
how do I know if I have the Generic 2.0.2.A.0.24 FW?? I went to 'about phone" and only see that the firmware version is 2.1 update1. is that the unrootable firmware? I also tried using astro to install it thru sd card but it still doesnt work..... maybe I should just root it with one click and not use z4 anymore?

Go to settings --> about phone and scroll down. It should tell you what build you have.
aiya... it appears that I do have the 2.0.2.A.0.2.4 FW. thats why z4root wont work..... is there a way that I can revert back the firmware? is this FW recently released? What is the advantage of this FW over the older version?? Thanks

Yes it is recently released. It is a minor update that fixes some bugs but, there is no official changelog from SE. You can flash back to older FW from here.

Oh I forgot to mention that you can also flash the new pre-rooted FW from here.

First, install X-recovery and read the instructions here.
Second, go here and follow the instructions in post #1.
Third, go here to install JiT.
Each post has very simple instructions, so just read through them. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the help, but can I install xRecovery on an un-rooted phone? Because the xRecovery post says that the requirement is that the phone must be un-rooted .... do I still have a chance?

You can flash to an older FW from the link I gave you earlier in post #8. Use Z4root to root and then install x-recovery.
which firmware should I download? I have a x10i, but the firmware in the flashing post only have Nordic, German and CH under x10i. Is there an English version? Thanks!
i've up my phone with seus & i've the same probleme

Download the X10i global from here.
got it work by re-flahsing it back to the old FW. Didnt bother to update to the newer FW, but everything feels fine! Thanks everyone!
Do we need to re-root and re install all the apps everytime that there is a FW update? like re do the whole process when a new FW gets released??

The wife finally decided to update her phone last night but we get an error
"unable to install or start phone software update"
the software on the PC is up to date, there's no proxy, firewall or AV software
I spent hours last night trawling the web for answers (and on here) but cannot find anything
anyone know how to help?
will it matter if the update to 2.1 was done manually by me from a file I got from on here (they took so long to release to the UK so I did the update following a thread on here like loads of others did)
any help appreciated with this
the phone isn't rooted (yet)
I will be rooting and putting on a new 2.2 or 2.3 ROM in the future but she hasn't the time to back everything up and re-install and set everything up yet

I've accidently done system format and wiped my whole phone. When I switch the phone on it sticks on the "Sony Ericsson" screen, I've tried pressing the back button hoping to get back to xrecovery but everything has gone.
I've read a few posts saying that pc companion can fix the problem but after trying that it doesn't find my phone, what has made it worse I don't have any back up stored anywhere to try fixing the problem
Can anyone please help me get my phone up and running again especially as it is my main contact to my son
Uninstall pc companion and redownload and install it,(That should sort the drivers out to recognise your phone) and if that does not work try SEUS
looks like you will have to go back to stock then use flashtool to root and reinstall xrecovery and start again...

Thanks. In the process of downloading both now. Would I be able to go back to stock using either of these as I did not have anything backed up, not even the stock rom....my rom was stock anyway only rooted to get rid of certain apps
As an alternative you can use the flashtool and flash a generic firmware. That will put a stock rom and maybe even get an updated baseband depending on which firmware you grab. Check this thread and maybe bookmark it too:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928343
Yes, either of these will put you on stock rom with the latest firmware and baseband for your region and phone.
hope you manage to sort it out...let me know if you have any problems, you can always pm if you need to

Thanks sooooo much for the help with this, downloaded SEUS and saved my phone all the help is much appreciated!!
I tried to change my ROM from CM7 to M&M MiUi but I didn't unlock my bootloader beforehand and tried to install the MiUi ROM anyways. Now it just goes to the Sony Ericsson logo and won't do anything. I've tried SEUS and Update Service to see if I could repair it, but it just says that my version is not out yet. HELP PLEASEEE!!!!
YOU HAVE NO CLUE HOW PAINFUL IT IS FOR ME TO NOT BE ABLE TO USE MY SWEET BABY!!! T.T
I think we do Peter,since this is the 3rd thread youve started about it since 2 days ago.I can understand you are frustrated,but your meant to stick to the one topic so like others dont go repeating themselves etc.
So have you tried ,newer or older flashtool,is pc compaqnion set up,tried charging battery....................
battery is fine, i've tried flashtool 0.6.7.0, and pc companion won't fix it.

Use flashtool to flash for example android 2.1 like this. After that You should be able to flash back to 2.3 using SEUS.
Alright. I'll give it a try. Thanks!

Hello,
I did something very stupid: I installed JIT enabler at my X10i running on rooted 2.3 Gingerbread and now my phone does not boot past the white "Sony Ericsson" logo.
If this is somehow helpful, I have XRecovery installed and I'm able to boot it. However, I haven't created a backup.
Please, help me as fast as possible, because I'm a bit desparate.
Thanks, in advance!
You mustn't use JIT on Android higher than 2.1 -
1. Cause it will make something like you have right now.
2. Android 2.3 has it in standard, so no need to use it pal .
To fix this, just flash some official ROM via FlashTool, or use PcCompanion.
Cheers mate.

Thanks, again! Next time I'll give some more info.
After repairing my phone with PC Companion, I re-rooted it and re-installed X-Recovery, so now everything is fine.

Just do the same as I did (PC Companion → Repair)! I think that it doesn't wipe your data (or at least not those at the SD card).
