[Q] problem with restore - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hi, I'm from Venezuela and this is a traduction made by Google's translator... I have a problem with my X10 mini pro (u20a), while putting on a rom I tried and did everything they asked: restore with PC companion, root and install XRecovery, but when I started it I came back because I needed a different type of baseband and compilation number and could not find how to change them. I decided to leave it, uninstalled everything that had been installed to the ROM (zroot, superuser and the servant to see the phone files), un-root and when I wanted to restore with PC companion a notification tells me "There is no software available for phone. Please try again later." If anyone knows how to fix this problem or have already solved this link (there are more than 2000 posts to locate one by one) would really appreciate it I HOPE FOR YOUR HELP, THANK YOU!

[Q] X10a (Rogers) stuck in FreeX10 Beta3 Froyo 2.2.1

Hi guys!
I've followed the instructions to install Froyo on my Rogers X10a and everything went really well, but due to the fact that I don't have WiFi, any cellular radio (can't even search networks) and lots of times where it will crash, I am looking to revert my phone back to the Rogers 2.1 firmware, however I haven't been able to do so.
I have followed a tutorial (can't post links, search Google for "rebranding rogers xperia x10" and select 2nd link). But I am still unable to do it! I'm stuck at step 10, where it mentions the Java error. I have installed only 32-bits versions of JDK and JRE on my 64-bits Windows 7 Ultimate laptop and I can't get past this point. I have verified my Device ID on my desktop computer (only computer I have used with PC Companion).
I am really stuck as I need my phone really bad (only phone I have, can't find my BlackBerry Bold...).
I have no idea what else I should try to do at this point and I'm being kinda desperate. I'm new into the flashing thing, but was aware of the risks... probably just didn't know it could be that bad...
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Please list your problem simply,i sinply cant get what u mean,sorry for my english it's not my mothertongue
I think you can't update your rooted phone the normal way via SEUS or PC Companion. You need to flash your phone manually, or reset to factory state to get the official update
Simply my problem is that i want to install on my Xperia mini pro (2011) new update and installation failed. Phone is rooted and I want to install this update.

Tell us HOW you are trying and failing - are you trying to use the Sony Ericsson updater or some other tool? If so - name the tool.
If you are just trying to use Sony Ericsson's update program - called PC Companion - you need to tell us whether or not you have already installed any custom, third-party rom in place of the standard one your phone came with.
Also - since you have rooted your phone, did you do so for any particular reason - i.e. - have you installed any particular applications or customisations that required the phone to be rooted?
If not - please understand that rooting your phone is NOT necessary for normal use. Only a tiny percentage of the millions of Anfroid phones sold get rooted - it is a hack that MAY prevent your phone from working properly in certain ways - including being able to install updates from the manufacturer or service provider.
If you want to be able to safely and easily install updates directly from Sony Ericsson, unroot your phone and reset it to all defaults - after backing up any important data. Then run the update program. If you have specific apps that only work when the phone is rooted - you can alway re-root the phone afterwards then reinstall the apps - just bear in mind that different revisions of Android MAY require a different method to root and MAY require a different version of any named app.
If none of that helps - tell us exactly WHAT is failing and HOW it is failing - give EXACT details of the application you are using and EXACT details of any error messages you see on the computer and/or phone. Simply saying "it won't work" is like asking "Why won't my car start?" - impossible to answer without listing a million possible reasons.

I tried default SE update app in phone. I tried also to use PC Companion, but i am not able to connect phone in MTC mode(required for upgrade).
I think that i have no custom party ROM (Only one change I used was rooting and if there was no custom ROM i have none).
I rooted my phone for cleanup. I wan to uninstall many default applications such as Moxier, Popcap games or Wisepilor Navigation. I am not interested that something not required spent my batery. After cleanup my battery is usable 1,5 times more.

That's more useful - it appears that the problem you need to address is not the ability to update - it's the ability to connect to your computer via USB.
Please go through this in order...
Disconnect the USB cable from the phone and PC.
Go into the Sony Ericsson menu and then Connectivity.
Go into USB connection mode and select Media Transfer Mode (MTP)
Go back from the menu to the main screen.
Run PC Companion on your PC - you will get the main window showing a message saying "No Phone Connected".
Plug the USB cable into the PC and then into the phone.
PC Companion should now say "Searching Phone".
If it doesn't find your phone - remove the USB lead from the PC then unintsall PC companion. Go to the Sony Ericsson website and download and re-install PC Companion. Then run it and try again.
If PC Companion still fails to find and connect to your phone, post back - you may need to run a registry cleaner such as CCleaner to fully remove any corrupted drivers.
If PC Companion finds your phone, it will show a message regarding available updates. If updates are available, follow the onscreen instructions to install them.
If there are updates but they fail to install - post back with details.
If there is any other message - such as saying that your phone cannot be updated - post back with exact details of the message - including your current version.
One important thing to bear in mind here that hasn't been mentioned so far is the method you used to root. If you used the unlocked bootloader method, then upgrading via official path, i.e. pc companion will definately result in you failing on update. As it will brick your phone and you will have to resort to this forum for a solution. However, if you rooted using the doomlord method you should be ok cos SE won't detect the modified software when attempting the update.

problem with upgrade
Hi, I had the same problem (rooted phone - locked bootloader) because I attepmted to upgrade the phone ota - through the phone. It did not work but at the same time from this moment on the phone was imossible to connect in the mode suitable for upgrade. The solution is SEUS because in this program the phone connects while it is switched off and it really works.

[Q] Updating X10a from 1.6 original Android

I recently got a Xperia X10a, and I noticed that it has the android 1.6 on it. I know that the newest version of Android is 4.2 so I started searching the internet for an update to android 4.0.4 at least. I discovered that the android 4 for the X10 isn't completed so I went to android 2.3 and found the site freexperia, there you can download the CM7 for X10. I'm a noob, I don't know what a kernel is and what I can cause to the phone by changing it so I need help, because every tutorial explains how to update from 2.1/2.3 to 2.3.3 or something like that. I also tried to update the phone throug SE Pc companion and update service, but I can't pass through the step of pressing back and plugging the phone in again, I do what is said to do but nothing happens and the phone just turns back on. Also i saw something about the baseband and changing it to most recent one, but I don't know how to do it, and I discovered that you can put multitoutch in the X10. How can I update from android 1.6 to 2.3? I need to update the baseband? If yes how and to what version(i'm from brazil, and I don't know if this change from country to country) What are the main differences between CM7 and the official SE 2.3 updates? Through these updates the multitouch will be automatically installed in my device? I also would like to install clock work mod on my device, how can I do that?
PS.: I read the thread about using the flashtool to do many thing to my device, and the tutorial was very clear, so if I can do what I want using tha tutorial as a foundation the process will be much more easy.
Well, I've been trying to update for a while now and I think I discovered the problem. As I need at least the Android 2.1 to start doing what I want with my phone I have to update via PC companion, but when I reach the end of the preparing step I get an error on my PC, after I turning off the device I plug it in holding down the back key and a pop up apears saying that the device had a malfunctionig and is not conect so I get stuck in this step, as the device is not recognized. Can anyone help me?
What i did with mine is rooted the phone while on 1.6 then changed the region code. After connecting via pc comp i got the update to 2.3.

Helium bkp and restore querry

Hi, I have tried backing up my blu vivo xl phone to include appdata to no avail. After going through google play for an answer, there doesnt seem to have backup software to do this without root and I do not want to root it either. I tried google for an answer but the only thing that resulted in was helium software, which I tried but couldnt get it to work. I tried the drivers from blu, asus (PC Brand) and the universal adb drivers but I kept on getting yellow exclamation marks in device mgr. I cant tell you the exact error because I had to install a new win 10 OS on my pc. I cant try it now as my phone is being look at by blu and I wont get it back for a few weeks.
What am I doing wrong and are do i need to follow a set of steps in a certain order to get it working correctly?
I havent tried this yet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvuHE_PPHuo so I am hoping someone could tell me if this video is the correct way to do it?
TIA

Hi,
I was hoping someone can help out with this. I have posted 11 threads and no one ever replies. Is there a reason why no one does?

I will assume the reason for no one responding is that it doesnt work. Oh well.
