Hi guys n girls,
I've downloaded the Orange firmware (i think from what i can understand from the letter codes) but the only one they have is swiss version. Anyone have an Orange UK version.
I've tried loading the swiss one, i gather because of the format of it, you use the one package option in ODIN, it loads into the phone fine, but when it comes to resetting after its finishes nothing happens, ive left it for several minutes and tried turning it on, but no good.
Anyone got anytips/ideas??
Thanks in advance
Flash to KBP with odin here is the link download KPB 2.3.3 http://hotfile.com/dl/116307445/a37322f/S5830XXKPB.rar.html
After Flashing if u want u can install CyanoAce... eveything is working fine from that rom
No Wifi Sleep Of Death, Great Baterry, Great perfomance , remember to change the language when u flash because it is on russian at first start lol.
I am on T-Mobile UK, Is it because you can't send SMS over 3G? Flash KPY that has the XEU CSC for UK. Fixing the issue for T-Mobile UK and Orange UK and Virgin Mobile UK
That is one of the issues I've had regarding sending sms while 3G is on, I want the Orange firmware for reference reasons.
Im was also having sms issues but no no more good old (well new) KPY..

Guys
i have an XDA II and it starts with o2 active. if i go to My XDA and select connections, select country is set to Germany (I need to get this to UK and make it stay on UK)
when i change this to UK, device then resets and boots back up. go to check it and it's back to Germany.
Do i need to upgrade the ROM to get this to UK Device ? if so, which rom do i get?
will the special rom from XDA Developers do the trick and update my device ?
what the hell do i do if all goes wrong ?
if someone can advise on these questions, i'll be most happy.
also tried setting up the gprs settings for O2 UK and they will not stay in device or connect. i assume that this is to do with the Germany thing ???!!?
god i am so confused, so any help at all guys ?
many thanks.
It is a bug, I had this happen several times, when you are presented with the choice screen wait a while before choosing your country, click firmly and it should work ok.
thanks for the reply
i've managed to change it to Ireland and it stayed like that for a while
thinking of putting the XDA Developers special rom on and flashing the thing !
cheers anyway
please reconsider!
being that the special rom is made for xda1 and not 2
and if it would somehow let you upgrade your device with a rom for another device it would prob magcialy turn it in to a brick
and forcing it to sleep for 1024 years unless some beautiful frog kiss'd it or something
thanks for the warning
it just so happens i clicked on the upgrade rom before going on the net and got error unable to locate device !
so i stopped and checked the net and found your message
anyone have any idea what is the best rom to upgrade to from mine.
getting a problem with the camera after playing an MPG file via PocketTV !!!!
Radio/Rom/Link
where can i download this link.
ROM Version 1.60.00WWE
ROM Date 12/03/03
Radio Version 1.10.00
Protocol Version 1337.18
ExtROM 1.60.50
Thanks
What link you after ????
cruisin-thru, you suggestion didn't work
i also flashed the ROM from the O2UK web site and it still selects Germany
any one got any other ideas? or does it even make a difference ?
I also get a problem with Pocket TV and my Camera after playing MPG files.....
cheers for all the help guys.
Hi everyone, i need some advise.
I had the global 2.1 rom on my rogers phone and it was beautiful, fast and flawless.
It did bother me i had an x10i rom on my phone, so i decided to change the codes to brazil and do the reinstall from seus to get 2.1 from brazil on my rogers phone.
This is where it went all bad, the update failed 3 times and on the forth it went through.
1. My x10 now has a few issue's, terrible signal strength, no bars in my basement. with the global rom i was getting 2 to 3 bars.
2. My wifi connects once and after the phone sleeps i need to restart the phone to get it to connect.
3. The app men u is slow, it opens fast but it takes about 7 to 8 swipes before it moves, then it sticks to where it scrolls to and again 7 to 8 swipes to get it to scroll. with the global rom the app menu was super fats no hesitation. i could go from the first app to the last very fast.
4. generally seems slower.
Here is the advice i would like to get.
1.should i reinstall the brazil rom?
2. should i go to rogers rom?
3. should i go to the global rom again?
One last thing, has anyone else had an issue with the brazilian rom?
Thanks for any tips/ advise.
i did the same with mine did not like having the 10i im not having any of your problems but I would also like to get rogers 2.1 on my phone also. but no issues with the brazil one so far.
Brazil Rom works like a charm on my x10a, I tried the nordic and the global roms but the Brazil Rom is the smoothest. Plus the app launcher doesn't lag.
I would suggest to flash the phone again through SEUS then do a factory reset for the phone and ur SD card
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
thanks guy's.
I'm glad to here it is not the brazil rom. i will reset and do the reinstall using seus and post back if i have any issue's.
Gota love the xda forums, everyone is so good at sharing experinces. makes it one of my favorite places to hang out and read.
im about to do this to my x10a as well, is this the correct code?
X10a CUST-BR NAM1 1234-4836 1232-4526 Customized BR/Sensuous black
Yes, that code is the right one for brazilian 2.1 generic fw.
Ok all is good now, seems that when the seus update failed it caused some issue's.
or doing the reset of the phone and sd card might have saved me.
Anyways all is good again.
Thanks

According to Sony Ericsson Product Blog page LAM firmware has been released isnt the one with code 1232-4388?
Not sure if this is a good thread for this but I couldn't really find a response. I got a White X10 from Rogers a while back. I already debranded it using Generic Latin America (I think Argentina?? it was something like xploid, I can't remember exactly). Now I want to change the region so I can update to 2.1 but I'm not exactly sure how. Someone told me to I should change it to Brazil but I didnt know how to do that using the SEUS? I have an X10a with R2BA026. When I do the lock screen code (menu, back back etc...) under Country it says Generic LAM (b) - Brand is Customized. Under software info it has Phone Software Version: 1227 - 4612_R2BA026 Generic. Not sure if all of this was helpful but I hope someone can help me I really dont know when or how I'll be able to update to 2.1 without changing the region
Not able to bring phone back to original using SEUS
I tried upgrading to 2.3 but had no SD, so tried bringing it back to 2.1 Brazil 1232-4526 edited the custom files and what not but SEUS downloads the something than says my phone is already up to date. I'm using US X10a generic 2.1 right now. any ideas? also tried using recovery image I made with xrecovery but phone boots to SE colored logo than restarts.
A lot of people including myself have the problem with 2.1 where we cant send text messages longer than a single text.
But it says here that vodafone have worked with SE to fix the issue and have released an updated 2.1 firmware.
Is this firmware available yet for flashing? if it is where can i download it?
It tells you in the link you posted. Update/Repair using PC Companion.
But i have a rooted and unbranded phone with the nordic firmware. If i was to try and update i'd imagine PCC would not detect a vodafone firmware and not update to it... or that would not matter if SE have fixed all firmwares and not just done a vodafone fix, does anyone know? would PCC even work correctly with a flashed phone?

Sorry, from your OP it sounded like you were on vodaphone firmware already. The easiest way to flash it back to vodaphone is by the CDA change method as you are rooted.
see here:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824711
you will need to change the codes to 1234-4579
Although as you were having problems with it on nordic firmware it would say to me that its not a firmware issue, more likely a network one but i'm no expert.
also, probably worth you keeping an eye on this thread, and PM Jeff-SEAnswers ...

Thanks mate
I dont think it's a network issue because other people have the same problem on all kinds of networks and in different countries.
I have a vodafone SIM but i've always had a unlocked/unbranded phone... what would happen if i tried to use PCC to put the new firmware on my phone without flashing back to my phones original firmware? and are all UK firmwares the same or would this one with the fix be specifically for vodafone?

Using the above method I linked to would install the newest Vodafone firmware (ie. The 'fixed' one in your link). It doesn't matter what firmware you are currently on. No, all UK firmwares are different, some will come with provider settings preinstalled, specific apps or features enabled/disabled depending on network. If you don't want to go back to branded try flashing to generic UK 2.1 using flash tool, thats what i'm on and I never had any text problems.
Think i'll just try flashing to the firmware you use and see if that fixes it... could you link me to the UK firmware you used? Cheers again!

X10i Generic UK - http://www.multiupload.com/TVLQVFW4OA
just put the files in the 'firmware' folder of flashtool then run it.
I debranded my Xperia S about 6 weeks ago to fix the GPS problem, fed up withwaitin for Orange to do the update. Orange is now on version .75 and I'm still on .67... Does anyone have the Orange firmware so I can rebrand my phone... I can find T-Mobile NL but no Orange (UK)
Thanks
Why do you care about rebranding now? Orange bloat? Flash TW .76, remove the bloatware, enjoy.

Maybe he wants it incase it has to go back to Orange UK?
Maybe he isn't sure if putting the Taiwanese firmware on there will let some of his apps (Banking etc) work?

Many thanks for both your replies.
Here is my reasoning:
The auto update facility doesn't work with .67 and I don't want to keep checking for flash updates
When I have previously updated its taken half a day to get my setting back to how I like it.
If I need to return the handset to Orange wouldn't an incorrect firmware invalidate my warranty
When I manually updated I assumed I'd be able to regress

No probs mate, many moons ago I used to work at the Darlington Orange office firstly on Handset Faults/Tec (A lot of them have no idea and follow a flow chart on their screens!) then moved onto Handset Insurance & Fraud Investigation. So I had a fairly good clue as to why you would want the original firmware.

Bit the bullet and upgraded to firmware to .73 (Swedish) it is now auto updating to.75 ... and it didn't loose my settings... must have been something wrong with the .67 firmware I used.
I need this firmware too (Orange UK) as I need to send my phone back to Orange for warranty reasons. Any way I can change my firmware back to Orange from UK Generic?
The only way I can think of is;
1. Unlock Bootloader
2. Flash another firmware region with a rooted system.img
3. Change the customisation number in build.prop to the Orange UK one.
4. Re-lock bootloader
5. Flash with PCC hoping that it will recognise my device as Orange Uk
Would this work?
Hi!
I tried different ICS rom's for my GT-P7500, (the UK and Italian versions)
All the time i got no PIN screen for my simcard, nor can't i add a APN.
Also when plugging in the USB i get a "missing hardware-id"
Hope someone can get me on track here.
BTW: Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P7500 (3G/WiFi Netherlands T-Mobile)

do you really flashed a rom for the 7500. I ask because when you flashed a ROM for the 7510 (wifi only models) you get the same error. everything works except 3g.
Please post some more details of your current rom which have this error.
These are not working for me (got the Ita en UK ones froms Sammobile) see below:
GT-P7500 Italy 2012 July Android 4.0.4 P7500XXLQ8 P7500OXALQ8
Indeed the UK one was for the 7510, hope i didn't mess up my tab

how do you flashed? with Odin?
Try to flash the stock rom for your gtab. After that, flash the Italy version for the gtab.
By the way: have you root your tab or installed a custom kernel?
Id it all...
From stock via Odin, Root, ICS
All the resets needed and so on...
Not realy a N00B overhere, got loads of experience but this is blowing my mind
Even did a try HEX-editing the files in /elf/ (and yes backing it up b4)
Back to stock now and 3G is fine.
As I have a p7501 I can't really test it, but I will try it tomorrow.
What I've tested is the jelly bean rom out of the dev section. It's ics 4.0.4 based on the Italy room. Really closed to the stock. 3g works fine on my gtab. May have a look.
So if the italy ics firmware file is not corrupt, I've no answer till now.

Well, i found out my Device ID / Serial number are gone.
Anyway to restore it?
(also mailed Samsung and waiting for their answer)
Do you have a backup of your efs folder?
I mean as you said you are not a noob and have loads of experience.. I do have a backup of my efs.. Of every single device I own... If you flashed a wifi only rom you even lose you imei and so that's why your 3G is not working

Yes got backups...
Thanks for this suggestion!
Gonna restore an old /efs/ but furst have to see the read/write rights on these files inside.
