How to flash back to AT&T 1.6? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I upgraded my AT&T X10 to the 2.1 Update 1 Generic Software 2.1.A.0.435 few months back.
Now I need to take in for warranty work (charger socket is loose), and I want to flash back to AT&T 1.6 so that the warranty folks don't give me any grief about it.
Any way I can get that done?
I tried the SEUS Repair method and it downloaded flashed me back to 2.1.A.0.435.
Help!

If you're running the generic Sony version there should be no problem with warranty work, as the update is expected to be performed by the user...

But it does not say AT&T anywhere...not even on boot up. Will it be ok?

Thank you!!!! I was searching for this since yesterday...finally posted this question.

I will put this one down to a genuine mistake then as nobody with 600 posts behind them is daft enough to start a question thread in the development forum.
Moved to Q&A.

[Q] Can I debrand the X10 after it has been rooted?

Hi all
Let me clarify first that I tried searching this topic before creating a new post. I did not find anything to my specific question.
I have a Rogers branded X10.
I used the Proyaz video on Youtube to root my phone. Now my phone's model number shows X10i and the Build number shows R2BA020.
I want to unbrand my phone as well. I have found a couple of guides to debrand the phone but my question is will it work on my phone since its now rooted? Also because it now shows X10i as the model number do I download files for X10a (North America) or X10i (Most of Europe and Asia)? I am in Canada myself.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...

hey, 1st of all u havent mentioned that u originally had x10a or x10i? considering that ur location is canada, chances are ur riding on x10a,(Pl check it b4) as far as i know, for debranded ur phone u ill need a custom rom and then root it...so i ill say, follow the bin4ry's method in devlopment forum and then u can end up having a debranded phone along with rooted one..if u dont care about root, then u can try picking one of the roms in jerlepelea's forum in devloper section and flash it...hope this answers ur ques..
The chances are you have already debranded your phone as you've obviously flashed the X10i rom to it, your issue is getting back to X10a, so read some of the threads in the development section.
I have the same question as well (also with Rogers), but instead, I used the one-click root apk to root my x10. I want to know if I can still debrand my phone somehow..because it obviously isn't debranded yet..I still see that annoying Rogers logo when I start up my phone..anyone know? Or should I unroot then debrand??

[Q] How to downgrade from 2.1 to 1.6

Well I I lost one X10 and got another one (used) since Arc will be coming soon so no reason to spend on a new X10i. Anyways it came with 1.6 and I upgraded it to 2.1 but as soon as I did, it started to give me a huge problem (no service) although my previous X10 had no issues in the same room. I put another sim in my phone but still the same issue. So I want to know if anyone could guide me to some tut where I can downgrade from 2.1 to 1.6....
Regards
Look in development forum and look for a thread named Original Firmware operators it has some good instructions to downgrade...

[Q] Some help with ROM upgrade.

Hello,
New to the forum, and this is probably a noob question, but after trawling through loads of threads on here my head is spinning and i need some advice!
I decided to upgrade the ROM of my hd2 today as i am having problems with sending sms. i bought the phone second hand recently. It is sim unlocked and there is no carrier branding on the phone that i have noticed.
I tried to get a ROM from the htc site and got the not suitable message, long story short after speaking to htc i found my phone is from the Czech republic.
Now i have had a look at the ROM flashing tutorial and i am confident with doing it, however i am unsure about whether or not i need to use the Goldcard method?
Can i download the latest ROM from the UK HTC site and put it on my phone just using the Hardspl method here?
Thanks for any help offered, and sorry if this has been asked before, but i couldnt find an answer to my question.

[Q] Help with bootloader unlock plz

I've been scanning the site and seen many threads on bootloader unlocking on the atrix but I'm still not sure which method to use! I don't want to be bricking my phone in anyway and I understand about OTA updates from then on, sbf files and so forth. My understanding is that you can not flash a different sbf file to the one I already have! I might have that wrong though. My phones firmware is
System version: 45.31.0.MB860.ORANGE.EN.GB
Android version: 2.3.4
baseband vers: N-01.100.00R
Webttop vers: WT-1.2.0-133-39
Kernel: 2.6.32.9, [email protected]#2
Build: 4.5.2A-74_OLE-31
Using Giffgaff sim at min, phone is not locked to orange.
Any help with a direction to a good tut for unlocking my bootloader would be mint.
I seem to only see guides for AT&T based phones and not uk or more to the point, orange? The last update my phone received as above was ota.
Thanks in advance.

Anybody, Please........
NO help for uk users
Its clear to see that uk users get no help on this forum, I've checked all the links and threads and see its all att&t, I've come across 1 post dated back to 2011 about orange uk atrix bootloader unlock but nothing that is recent or even includes my phones os version, firmware ect. I wonder if I mention that everything on this site is directed to us and not uk will get a response, not the one I'm looking for but still, a nasty reply is better then none. This is what I get for checking in on a us forum. Sweet.
maybe

Flash different firmware?

Hi all, I have a UK Vodafone branded S9 plus and I've had it network unlocked, but the handset has a couple of Vodafone apps cooked into it one of them I can disable and the other I can't but my real problem is as I'm on Three UK so I don't get WiFi calling!
My question is can I download the Three UK firmware and flash with Odin without rooting or tripping Knox and then will I still get the official software updates going forward?
I just don't wanna root this device like I do all the rest!!
Sorry if this had already been asked, I've done some Google searching but only found posts from a few years ago!!
Many thanks
Ps. All you developers keep up the excellent work, everybody on here appreciates it.
Ok guys I've found my answer is the below thread . Please delete post thanks admin.
