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

I am currently using NTT Docmo Xperia x10 on android 1.6. Its model is SO-01b and i want to upgarde to android 2.1 and unlock the phone as well. But i am not clear which version to use , nordic or global. I am not sure but on according to wikipedia nTT docomo so-01b is based on x10a.
Please someone help me if anyone could give me suggestion.
My Docomo X10 is flashed to global generic 2.1 and running just fine.
Just don't forget to write down your APNs so you can put them back.
You want the "bizho" one, since that's the network where your internet fees are capped.
Thanks for the response gtkashi.I am now in Nepal and want to make the phone work here in Nepal by upgrading to android 2.1. Could u please clarify me whether flashing would make the phone sim free.
it won't. You're just updating the software, not unlocking the phone.
Get in contact with nttdocomo to see what their policies/costs for unlocking your phone are or try to see whether there's some shady services for unlock codes by now.
Global to Docomo firmware 2.1
With this upcoming update for Docomo, if you currently have global 2.1, how would we "instruct" SEUS to flash the Docomo firmware? Would we need to edit some *.prop ?
Personally I'm hoping someone would extract the firmware itself so that the flasher tool can be used to overwrite the existing one.
Either way, 30 min til Nov 10!

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
Thanks for share.
I dit it myself with my original italian firmware few days ago. Now, i'm trying to decrypt my original firmware. I've seen a tool here. Do you remember that?

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.
Hi @all,

I try changing the cda but it wont let me repair it just says latest firmware already installed. How can I get uk generic back? I cant find the files for x10 flasher either there are only nordic files.
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
hello guys,
have got SE xperia x10 from US,
have unlocked the same from AT&T to make it generic.
currently running on android 2.1
Firmware version
2.1 update 1
Baseband version
2.1.54
Kernel version
2.6.29
Build Number
2.1.A.0.435
I want to install xrecovery on my X10i, which i am unable uptill now.
My x1o is rooted somedays ago thru superoneclick.
can anyone suggest me the exact firmware to flash in my phone as i have unlocked my phone which was previously x10a US AT&T... and now its x10i generic.
Thanks.
You can install: http://www.multiupload.com/SR8R1B5KII
Using: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
That's x10a AM-US GB 1233-822
US generic Gingerbread for x10a.
You can then root using: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1196421
And install xrecovery right after you're done and booted up.(You have to choose ask root perms on flashtool first before you can)
The option should be enabled on flashtool when you boot up.
Thanks Dark Nightmare,
done!!!.... kudos to the flash tool owners...
had a small prob after i had flashed the fw...
the phone wasnt detecting the memory card even if i had formated the same on the PC...
tried my memory card on other smart fone, and it worked perfectly fine...
solution: format in a nokia fone and u r done.... everything works perfectly after that....
