Hi,
I'm trying to change my ST18i to an ST18a to use the other 3G frequencies, could someone please post the build.prop from a ST18a.
ST18i currently has this in build.prop I'm looking for the number for the ST18a:
ro.product.name=ST18i_1251-8357
Thanks for any help, or let me know if this can't be done?
And after this number changing your able use other frequencies???
Hardware supports this?

So the plan is to alter the build.prop file, this is then used by SEUS to determine which firmware needs to be installed on the device.
Once SEUS reflashes the modem with the ST18a Baseband I believe the hardware is then capable of using the other frequencies... if I'm wrong I'm hoping someone will let me know?

Sorry but that's not possible... the use off frecuencies is a hardware thing. Sorry
I wouldn't even get a try. If you do, you'll probably get you radio off, and that's having not fix.
It's like the Cliq/Dext issue. It's the same phone, but different baseband.
Are you guys sure about this, a lot of people seem to have done it with the X10i to X10a baseband or X10a to X10i baseband no problems...

I'm sure i tested my smartphone whith a Sin card from a provider whose 3g signal goes through the 900 baseband (my phone is unlocked). Using MiniCM 7 from nAa, my phone's model is an e10a, however, as you can see in the signature, my build.prop says i've got an e10i... no 3g detected. Only edge o 2g or gsm, no Hdspa when i test the mentioned Sim. Sorry as i said before, is a hardware thing, if what you say, where true, by using this ROM i wouldn't be able to use the hdspa networks from my carrier, that goes trough the 850... the e10i can't use that baseband. So i'm completely sure. Sorry

Right, I'm really confused?
Not with all the flashing, branding, debranding and all that jazz, That's easy. I got my x10 in the UK, On the Orange network.
I've had it ages and didn't really look at the box or under thebattery whether it was an x10a or x10i until recently. On the phone it said the firmware was x10a but when I checked the box etc I noticed it says x10i. It's flashed to x10i firmware now and global generic blah blah blah.
When I first tried SUES I got the not being able to update deal but now I can, I've used it a few times. Anyone any ideas on it and what it's meant to be lol?
The difference between the two are the 3g bands they support. X10a supports att's 3g. X10i supports t-mobile. In the USA at least.

Thanks dude, but I did know this.
I was more confused as to why the firmware was x10a while meant to be x10i
Did you flash the X10a rom to it? All UK phones should be X10i.

I used Bin4ry's root method and and flashed it to the x10i firmware, I couldn't get SUES to work with it at first and was going to try and flash it back to x10a but then it started working and is fine now.

If you followed every step then that's why it ended up as an X10a, and as far as I know SEUS won't run if you've flashed a to i or vice versa.

HI
i flash it U20i_2.1.1.A.0.6_Baseband_015.tft
so now i have a baseband correct to get CM BUT i can only use edge??? why?i try *#*#4636#*#* and change to GSM AUTO and i just get EDGE someone knows why????
i used have 006 working fine , after that i DL a tft u20i UK tft and flash it i keep my 006 baseband so i flash it the 015 and install CM all was ok until i figure out i have only edge and no 3g :S any way to fix this? the apn its fine.
thanks a lot
You probably have a u20a model, remove the battery cover and look for it. When flashing a u20i baseband/firmware, you lose 3G.... I know because it happened to me!! look around for a way to revert back to stock u20a and update (I used a brazilian generic one).

Hi guys
Just wondering would there be a gb update for the x10a?
Also the official GB roms wont work with bb65 would it?
Thanks

There will be a GB update for all variations of X10 (eventually) apart from maybe carrier locked devices.
hve u tried flashing pre-rooted version...??
currently on cobrato's miui, really don't see a need to move to official GB until the camera's ported. just wondering if anyone else tried it that's all
i guess i just have to wait a fair long time for the x10a version...

it says for x10i , will it work for x10a? since different 900/1800 stuff?

Yes.
It doesn't matter because all firmwares after v2.1 include both (software) radios for "a" and "i".
NOTE: Flashing an "i" firmware onto your "a" phone does NOT give you "i"-frequency 3G support (and vice versa). (Hardware) radios are FIXED and cannot be changed by firmware flashing.
v2.3 Update on my Canadian Rogers X10a:
I understand that it will work. I was using. 67 baseband for a while. But I find baseband such as. 65 is more optimised. I'll are how patient I am....

Hi there, I believe it has something to do with the area / country in which it was sold, and also the frequency bands for 3G (so in short different areas have different frequency's for phones) .
(I use a X10I rom on my X10A and there seems to be no difference for me .)

I would not recommend doing that if your phone seems to work fine, and if you are having problems with your phone you normally can use Sony pc companion to reinstall the firmware.
The only reason mine runs an X10I firmware is because my phone got bricked and the X10A firmware would not work.

Hi... i have a x10i and i am looking for a rom to flash into it, but i don´t know how to do it...
i´m searching forum´s to learn...
can you tell me what rom did you install and the steps?
i´m looking for a rom that transform my 2.3.3 android into a 4, or something like that...
Thanks!
Flashing a x10i rom to my x10a phone switched the working bands from:
umts_bc1, umts_bc2, umts_bc5, umts_bc6
to
umts_bc1, umts_bc4, umts_bc8
Then in order to reconfigure the bands I flashed x10a rom, but It don't worked ¿what's wrong with my phone?
