X10 doesn't support Estonian language and probably never will,at least not officially.
X10 mini on the other hand has Estonian as one of its languages.
Is it possible to use X10 mini's language data on X10 and if yes then how? What files specifically hold that data?

Click to expand...

i don't think you can, and if you can you mini needs to be rooted before
Please response as soon as possible. I have updated my X10mini pro with X10 mini (E10) files by mistake.
Now, I have a big problem, the phone does not respond. touch screen does not work and I can not mount the phone to the usb port to do the update again with the correct files. Sony Ericson pc companion and update service doesnt work in my case.
Anyone have an idea how to fix it?
thanks
use omnius to reflash mini pro files.
Flash the phone with omnius is not free now... Do u know any other ways??
Use seus and switch firmware files in the right moment like in debranding method.

Title says it all really, I would like to flash my GF's UK mini pro which is on O2 network to a generic firmware. We are fed up with waiting for O2 to release its 2.1 update so we are looking to do it ourselves.
All the guides talk about x10 mini, does the pro come into this?
Thanks guys!
I live in New Zealand and have 2 Mini Pros. Both phones are Firmware U20i phones which work on Vodaphone no problem but only partially on Telecom Xt. Telecom XT phones use firmware U20a. Love the phone but I need the rural coverage Telecom XT provides.
I want to convert both phones from U20i to U20a. Phone 1 is from Singapore now updated to Android 2.1. Phone 2 is from Vodaphone N.Z. and has had no updates, its stock Android 1.6
I know there is some doubt as to whether it can be done as it could be a hardware limited also. When phone 1 was inially updated it had full access to the Telecom XT network. After a day or 2 the software seemed to lock it down to inner city use only. I think this is the 21ghz band Telecom use for inner city fill in. So phone 1 is worth a try.
I intend backing up phone 2 useing xrecovery so I can restore should any thing go wrong. It also gives me a simple method to put phone 1 back to 1.6 if needed.
1st question.
Does xrecovery, backup user data includeing apps, android whatever version installed and the phone firmware in this case U20i?
From here on I must admit Im unsure where Im going but Im confident I can get back to where I started should it all turn to custard lol. I seem to have 2 options to rebrand or is that debrand.
This method

2nd Question.
It seems almost daily, new tools and methods are created and this method is 3 months old. Is it still the best method to use?
The second option is to use xrecovery and load a Rom from a U20a phone.
3rd question.
Where do I get a Telecom XT Rom file from? Or for that matter any other U20a ROM. So far I have only seen U20i modified Roms available.
Im not sure yet about flashtool but its possibly used in congunction with xrecovery
I guess what Im asking is for some reassurance and advice
There seems to be alot of collective knowledge and experience on this forum I cant hope to emulate. Their also seems to be alot of goodwill to helping newbies which Im trying to tap into.
Any advice you can give me before I start I would be gratefull for.
Its hardware limited, sorry. If it wasn't then I wouldn't be using 2degrees on my U20i right now
The only reason why the U20i was working on XT is 'cause you were on the infill 2100mhz fill in....
ive gained quite a bit of experience in the last few days using a number of tools but still no sucess getting service on Telecom XT.
The phone I have is from Singapore. When i initially updated it I had good signal from Telecom XT. i live 50km from the city and it was impossible to have been the infill 21 gig band.
I have tried numerous edits of build.prop again with no success.
Tried aPaullyG's f/w thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=777660 who posted a binary from a brazil source but Flash couldnt use it.
What i would like to do for my own peace of mind is to flash a copy of 2.1 f/w from a U20a phone. Any country, doesnt mater.
havent tried xrestore yet but will later in the day but still need a file of genuine 2.1 to exhaust all possibilities.
I have just been given a Telecom work phone, but I am addicted to the Andriod on my X10, which is my personal vodafone mobile. I would love to use my X10 for work but I also have a U20i so it only works in the City with the Telecom sim. If you manage to get your phone converted to a U20a please post some instructions as I would love to do the same.
Hi Purplerust, I have an Xrecovery backup for my Australian X10 mini pro u20a running 2.1 if this is useful to you. Zipped it's 210Mb. Have not installed a cutom rom yet, just figuring everything out, backing up etc etc... Looking forward to getting Cyanogen on there, but am not yet sure what I need to do to get it working at 850MHz for the Telstra NextG network I'm on.
PM me if you want the image -
cheers,
Richard
The problem is hardware based, if you flash a u20i firmware to a u20a your left without 3g you're stuck on edge and the same goes the other way around.
May I ask why couldn't you use apaullyg's file?
As far as installing a custom ROM on top of it you can always flash to the latest version and root/xrec and install owain94's either floyo (currently using) or gigglebread which both work pretty darn good.
Hello,
I have just flashed my U20A in Australia to 2.1 and now I cannot access Three's 3G network as the phone is being detected as a U20i, is there any fix?
Also, is there any chance I will be able to recover the Planet 3 application from somewhere?
EDIT: I fixed the 3G by editing build.prop, I was wondering if there is a way to make it so that a specific website goes through an APN even if you are connected to WiFi.
Thanks,
Tanis
Flashed U20i
Hi Tanis,
Im pleased you seem to have overcome your problem. Im hoping to use a bit of the knowledge you have gained to get me thru a change I want to make to my Mini Pro.
I want to change from U20i to U20a.
Im presumeing you flashed to a 2.1 Rom you downloaded from some where. And that it was obviously a U20i build.
What steps did you use and what Apps did you use.Iim probably more interesested in the edit you did to build.prop. Did this requre rooting or did you edit the file before reflashing to the phone.
You seem to be on network carrier 3 which I believele has all bands on their mini Pros made available. Is that correct? If so what is the CDF number you used please
