[Q] Difference of firmware.... - Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro

what is the difference between these:
4.0.2.A.0.58 firmware and
4.0.2.A.0.42 firmware?
is there firmware available now in Neo?

there is no noticeable difference, probably just some bugfix.
yes is available fo neo, i update my to .58 some time ago via pc companion.

Only in certain (APAC) territories. It isn't available on EMMA yet either.
The 42 and 58 f/w versions are effectively the same.

I'm from Italy but I have flashed a Nordic rom with wotan. Don't know in what country the update is rolling out.
And for notice the update was founded only when I connected the phone to the pc and launched pc companion.

[Q] Firmware 4.0.2.A.69 (WT19i)

Did this firmware officially release? If so, can I update it. Maybe my region is Generic Trade France.
maybe that is fake rom. last firmware is .62.
It seems to be available on wotan server for Generic Trade Germany (2.3.4)
http://www.wotanserver.com/en/sony-ericsson/se/live-with-walkman-wt19/4-0-2-a-0-69/language-download
Usually these updates take some time to be released accross regions. And sometimes they are skipped entirely for some brands/versions.
I have updated to version 0.69 for wt19i through Wotan server, you can try using Wotan server, I saw more of a free ram very good : P

New Firmware 6.0.A.3.73 rolling out

As per the Xperia S Facebook page, it seems like another new firmware version is rolling out. 6.0.A.3.73 firmware rolling out on Xperia S.
Does anyone know what this version is about? What all fixes and changes have been introduced.
Also, I am still stuck with ver 6.0.A.3.62. PC Companion still shows that I have latest version of firmware and no updates are available.
I am based in US and have an unlocked Singapore version of the phone. So does that mean I will not be getting this new firmware update as well? Since I didnot receive ver 67 either.
One way to manually get the updates would be to flash with the updated ROM. (As mentioned in a previous thread regarding ver 67 update)
Although I could try that, I dont want to try the same with my phone just yet . I thought Sony would be providing a proper user friendly way to get the firmware updates installed.
Any comments or suggestions??
Flash tool is way more user friendly than SEUS. These updates are per market and unless they feel that Singapore needs an update, you won'e get it. Keep in mind that most of these firmware carry few bloatwares which differ in each market. For each update they have to stick those into the ROM and that takes time.
If you need the latest, there are two ways:
1) Flash the latest provided file from here via Flashtool
2) What you have is the latest for your phone/market,
I moved from .62 to .67 - I can tell you that I have not experienced any differences and I am more optimistic to see signs of ICS. Hopeful not too far from here.
Good Luck
I have an unbranded Singapore set (customization version 1257_6921) and don't have the update either. So far, it seems like the .73 update is rolled out to Singtel-branded sets (customization version 1257-9049).

Really. Quite a number of Singtel users on HWZ have already updated to .73. You might want to check your set via PC Companion. But no noticeable differences reported.

It happened for me too.
What is strange I also found my phone turned off when the message appeared.
But I just unplugged it, turned this on, turned off again and started the upgrade.
And everything went smooth.

That's really funny! I got from SingTel and my replacement phone (for the yellow tint issue) was a generic SG version .

In any case, the update is rolling out for SG generic (customization version 1257_6921). I'm updating now.
maybe someone can upload ftf file for the new firmware?
For those who don't see the update .67
PC Companion told my device was up to date too. But in order to update it to .67 I did the following: settings->applications->turn on "Usb debugging"
Connect device and start PC Companion, and then it saw the update.
Hope this helps

I don't mind, but don't know how to go about doing so. I checked out the tutorial found here but seems it's outdated, because the FILE_xxxx files in my Program Files \ Sony Ericsson \ Update Service \ db \ 13740270 \ blob_fs folder are dated 2011. And I can't find any FILE_xxxx files in my Program Files \ Sony folder.
Edit: Ok, found the files under ProgramData \ Sony Ericsson \ Update Engine \ db \ 13740270 \ blob_fs folder. Will try to use Flashtool to create FTF and upload.

I can give you Gingerbread today and you can update yourself from that with PCC or SEUS or ICS on Sunday.
Yes please. Thanks for your help
Only managed to get Gingerbread for now, sorry, but SEUS or PCC will update you straight to ICS anyway.
https://rapidshare.com/files/3111799828/Xperia U (ST25i)_6.0.B.3.184_Generic UK.ftf
If you use it could you let me know if it updates you to 6.1.1.B.1.10 or 6.1.1.B.1.54.
Thanks.
Thanks for your reply.
I tried this on Saturday and it works a treat.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2008667&highlight=xperia+uk+firmware
I used the flash tool, then used pc companion to repair the phone and then did a hard reset on the phone. Everything working great. Camera is a bit laggy though.
Goes to 6.1.1.B.1.10 only.
Is there a generic UK firmware that upgrades to 6.1.1.B.1.54 ?

Use the nordic generic firmware. Fast, less junk and works great in the UK. I use it on EE without issues.

It works great everywhere and it gets high scores to antutu
But just noticing... If you wanted .54 firmwire, why did you downgrade to GB than updated to b.10 in first place?

[Q] Mini Pro SK17i no ICS upgrade?

Hi... I just bought a brand new Mini Pro, and it came with 2.3 GB Android. I went to software update and it updated to 4.0.2.A.0.62 - but it's still 2.3.4. GingerBread! I tried with PC Companion, it says I have the latest software... how do I get stock ICS?
Thank you in advance
Try Sony Update service
If that doesn't work either, use flashtool and flash the stock ics rom

Thanks for the quick reply. Sony Update service just informed me that I have the latest software, just like OTA and PC Companion. I then tried with flashtool and 4.1.B.0.431 firmware, which worked after a couple of tries It seems that new phones are not recognized for automatic update to ICS, so it has to be done manually.

Yeah, no problem with that... but I noticed something very strange when I removed the battery... my brand new sk17i, bought in june 2013. has 11W37 manufacturing week label! So, either those numbers are not what they seem to be (year W week), or the importer got some cheap, old, recalled, forgotten-in-the-warehouse, first batch units. I checked the manufacturing date because the famous chirping and static clicking sounds are there, I thought that problem was solved with the new units (I used to have mini pro some time last year). Now I know...

Update using Sony PC Companion

So the Sony website says the latest software version is 17.1.1.A.0.402. I am running 17.1.A.2.55 so I decided to udate through the PC Companion. All went well but it updated me to the same version that I already had and not to 17.1.1.A.0.402. Any ideas what's going on?
Thanks

Don't look on Sony web page.
Open pc companion and as soon as you connect device it'll tell you is there firmware for you (new firmware)
I guess you have used repair function in pc companion - because it won't flash same firmware that you already have unless you choose repair option.
Just download 438 firmware and flash it through flashtool.
If it's not for your region (if you aren't from Syria) exclude baseband files and everything will work.
It'll probably work with 438 baseband files but I had 4g problems with it so I kept mine, 402 baseband.
