So, using SE 2.3 with a locked BL (I believe it is *patched* though) and SE kernel, PCC says it can't start software components. SUS says I have the latest software.
I just reinstalled the software from the 1st day of purchase, so SE 2.3 original everything. PCC says can't start software components and SUS said 'no new software for you'.
Some other version of SE 2.3 with original SE kernal have different messages. If I'm using stock SE and kernel and BL is locked, why do these programs tell me different things? I can't understand it. Is it build prop? I have only recently changed CDA/SI whatever, not earlier software. I may need an .ftf when ICS is ready for the Mini.
i will tell you to wait for the ftf and stop worrying about it, it usually takes a couple of hours at most to have it posted here in xda.

I've already tested all ways to flash to my county rom 2.1 and I have no result so I need help with it. I downgraded to 1.6 NR like is written in main page of this threat and then root, changed all three numbers in build.props, turned off and then hold beck button to green light and update to 2.1 with SEUS, but when I looked into build.props of new 2.1 system there is the same build.props as before in NR ROM. I don't know what to do. I've tried changing just number afted CDF or after whole CDF and nothing happend. What I did bad. My telephone was from CZ/Vodafone.
Sorry for my bad English and maby for bad section. =)
Yeah I have the same problem. I am from India unlocked x10minipro.
Even after changing the nos i get the same NR 2.1.
Helppppppppppppp.....
Please.
I really don´t know how to next, becouse if something happens I need to have original region firmware reclaim with warranty and so I want to use my region ROM, that is updated to 2.1
OK, I would recommend you to get the build.prop from someone who has the country firmware that you all want.
If you just want to change to an UK generic ROM, just go the the topic
"GUIDE: Mini Pro (U20) change to any firmware (generic\debrand)" and download the build.prop on the 1st page.
Then use the root explorer, go to system and copy paste it (substitute) there.
Turn off phone, connect to SEUS (as if you were updating the software).
VERY IMPORTANT - delete the db folder in SEUS before you do it.
And it should download and install a generic UK ROM 2.1.
Good luck, and if you get other build.props from other countries you will get those instead installed on your phone.
I already have have US ROM but I want my CZ/Vodafone regional ROM but with no results. I rewrited build.prop and if I updated with SEUS I am still on US ROM.
Philalerts, what you are experiencing is probably due to the fact that you have already downloaded the US ROM on your PC, that is why SEUS will install it automatically.
What you need to do is root - root explorer - change build.prop to the pretended version CZ in your case - save!.
Than you shut down the phone, and go to the place were you have your SEUS installed and DELETE the entire db folder "C:\Program Files\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\db".
That is where your US ROM is. After that you run SEUS again, and update. You should have a new CZ ROM in your next boot.
Good luck / Hodne stesti (my Cz used to be better
I have already done it by your way last time and before I send this topic, so I asked. I updated it with SEUS with clean install on my notebook, so I don't have any US ROM already downloaded.
When I edit build.prop with root explorer, what I did, then I turn off phone and update. Have I to restart it and try to update after that?

Even after uninstalling SEUS i still get the NL fw ????????
I have got really big problem with my x10 it was working fine before i installed tripnarc now my phone is really unstable it does turn but it restarts automatically or gives me wlod i tried flashing with seus flashtool nothing is working
Dude not to try and sound rude but you won't find much support for trip roms round here he is on another forum. If you look in my guide from my signature you will find links to flashtool thread and in there links to 'stock roms' which seus will then recognise and you can then repair your phone through seus. Oh and btw seus and flashtool tool are completely different things. Seus (sony ericcson update service, is officiall and from SE) where as flashtoolatest latest version to date being 2.9.1 is unofficial and was created by bin4ry and now maintained by androoxcide of XDA(not official but can root, optimize and install recovery to your phone, plus more). Both are good to restore back to stock but if seus won't recognise your phone then flashtool is the only way.
Also to consider have you you the right baseband installed and if so did you restore apps and data from a completely different install? Bad idea if you did, clean fresh, install is always recommended unless you really know what's safe to restore and what not to.

You shouldn't be messing around with custom ROMs if you can't follow instructions... or know how to restore to stock.
Use PC Companion or Update Service to repair and flash back to stock.
Then start over.
You obviously didn't have the right baseband, didn't use "Bad Behavior", or didn't format/wipe cache/etc.
Hello All.
I followed the install guide for MiniCM7, but after rebooting the Sony Ericsson Logo stays on the screen. not a constant reboot cycle, the words just stay there.
searching around these forums, it seems one of SEUS, FlashTool, or to a lesser extent PC Companion should be able to restore the phone, but the products from SE report no updates found and no matter which version of FlashTool or which firmware I try it aborts immediately.
I can, however, get into CWM. can anything be done from there?
If I'm not mistaken se PC companion and se update service says your phone is upto date and there is an option repair which flashes to 2.1 ie the latest update
Click on the repair option and it will again flash the official rom ..
Don't forget to click the thanks button

did you ever tried to unlock the boot loader?
it seems not
so learn how to unlock it, and then retry (i don't think you've read all the miniCM7 thread's first post and FAQ thread's first and third post)
and please, use flashtool 0.2.9.1
just do the factory reset in CWM recovery
Hi.I'm facing problem with rooting my x10.
I tried to downgrade my phone to 2.1 and root it but the flashtool cannot recognise my phone.It keep blank and din show any info like busybox version or other things...
I tried to seek help from gregbradley but no luck.
What should i do?
Thx
Have you enabled USB debugging. And have drivers installed. And pls check with the older version of flashtool. Some ppl have used it and solved their problem.
USB debugging is on and the latest drivers are installed but doomlord zergrush exploit still prompting adb server is out of date..
I tried using flashtool 0.2.9.1 but it also cannot recognise my phone..
After manually choose the device as x10 it din show my busybox version as none instead of leave it blank...I think the problem is my phone cannot be recognise...
What should i do the next?
did you flash 2.1 with appropriate kernel and baseband? baseband .49 was one of the most developed one.
You probably need to reflash an older 2.1 with an older basband and kernel... then start from there by rooting it and installing xrecovery 3...
go here and find an older 2.1 generic to start off of, I think the files come with its own flashtool, kernel, and baseband
Also, on the page linked above, the 2.1 generics are in the second section "all branded kits for X10i". Maybe use file number 8 since I recall specific roms like Orange UK X10 kits had strange behavior with foreign sims and rooting
after flashing the older 2.1, root and install xrecovery with newest flashtool (v3?)... from there, you can go into custom pre-rooted 2.1 to 2.3 roms.
i flashed back to 2.1 but the flashtool still do not recognise my phone..
So i can't root it with flash tool..
I tried to update my phone to stock 2.3.3 and root it with doomlord zergrush exploit but it keep prompting adb server is out of date even i made sure my driver is the latest..

Inside the new Flashtool (V3 and above), you should find gordons gate drivers (GG drivers) in the drivers folder, did you install that and update drivers?

@all
I have helped in this case.
I have been through the process of checking noob mistakes with him and also checking that adb is up todate. Both with gordons gate and pccompanion/seus.
Furthermore i have tried manually updating drivers through device manager
my personal opinion is a faulty phone or or incompatability with windows (32/64 bit) but i am not knowlagable in this area, this is why I asked him to seek help elsewhere....
Before I update to 2.3.3 I managed to root my x10 with FW 2.1
After I install pre-rooted rom I have no problem at all
I think my computer has no problem in compability
But since I update to wolfbreak V6,my camera start giving problem to me..
gregbradley,u said my phone may be a faulty phone,so should i send my phone to shop for repair?
Did you try on another pc?
Did you wipe x10 device id in registry?
Try a diifferent USB port... with new cable?
The easiest is to get it returned and replaced but will they accept it?
Before you send it to Sony authorised repair shop just use SEUS and turn it back to normal(no root).
Hey guys,
I installed Switzerland Generic ROM on my Xperia S a while ago before ICS was available in my region, doing this I realized it wouldn't pick up any network when I was abroad, when under normal circumstances it would.
So I tried restoring it to the default firmware eventually, and I could only find a generic UK version which wasn't the same SI number as my own. Mine is 1257-3114.
Since then my phone has become very slow and takes a while loading up things like the home screen, the browser etc.
So I tried repairing it using the Sony PC Companion, however that believes I'm running custom firmware. What I want to be able to do is to just restore it to the stock firmware for my model in my region, which I haven't been able to find. Even Gingerbread is fine, as long as Sony PC Companion lets me upgrade it! I believe my current build number is 6.1.A.0.453
Many Thanks,
Adam
you need to relock your bootloader before you can use pc companion use search on here to find relocker ftf ( there are specific for gb and ics) if u can find only gb version then get any xperia s ftf firmware off here flash using flashtool then flash the relocker and repair using pc companion
