[Q] Changing SI Number, Doesnot let Update from SEUS - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hi Everyone
I have installed ICS 4.0.4 TW on Xperia Ray.. Now my SI Number is 1251-9055..
From another thread I read changing SI Number lets you update from SEUS ... Then i rooted my phone and changed SI Number to 1251-4132 .. SEUS says the current version is latest, no updated, even If I click Repair Phone, still same message...
In the official post from Sony
http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/199350#199350#199350
ICS 4.0.4 has been released for 1251-4132 ... I want to go back to my regional ICS 4.0.4 ...
Can somebody help .. Images are attached for reference...

Read this for the Xperia Ray CDA String of your country.

For update you only need change "ro.semc.version.cust=(your Country CDA)" in "build.prop"
SI number is not a CDA string, and not working in build.prop

[WANTED]|[Neo]|[Neo V] show your CDF/customization number

I know a lot of you moved on ICS and most likely flashed one of the .ftf files around XDA, let's try to do this
All those user who are still on STOCK os, all those who didn't mess with build.prop file.
Do this:
->Go to the dialer and dial *#*#7378423#*#*
->Tap on Service info
->Tap on Software info
->Find where it say:
Customization Version:
XXXX-XXXX_XXX
Same number can be found in your build.prop under this 3 lines:
ro.product.name
ro.build.fingerprint
ro.semc.version.cust
about revision XXX you can find it in this line "ro.semc.version.cust_revision"
Also all those who maybe have written somewhere their original CDF number.
now go and make a reply to this thread and write: which phone you have, where you got your phone(country and tele. operator) and write the number like I did with X's above.
DO NOT POST SI NUMBERS, WHICH ARE WRITTEN ON THE BACK OF YOUR PHONE!

Why we cant change it ? Explain mate
You ask about our number, so we if have all ICS then we all have the same nr but a different network and country, so what is the point of this ??

Its number written on the back. When you bought your phone, your fw was related to that number. That number is related to your region.
BUT, once you flashed your phone with fw for other region, only way to get back to the fw for your region is by changing CDF number and flashing with pc companion, as pc companion reads CDF number not SI. Pc companion doesn't have need to check SI number as it expects you never changed CDF number(by flashing some ftf for example).
Now someone will ask why Sony listed SI numbers not CDF. Because they expect that people dont know how to check CDF number, but they know how to check SI number, as its actually written on the phone. Also they expect that people didn't temper with phones fw, that they still have stock fw, and in stock fw CDF is in relation with SI number.
If now I want to go back to stock I simply put my CDF number and flash, and I should get fw for my SI number.
I hope this is enough explained
Look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543679
and you will se perfect example why someone would want CDF number.

No SI number is not same as CDF number. Is this what you posted "1254-4312" number on the back of your phone?

And what happens if you delete build.prop and try to repair with PcCompanion?
Does he still guess the CDF numbers? and if not, shouldn't it ask you for Country and Carrier?
Sorry I can't try right now myself, but my PcCompanion installation is completelly messed up and not working.
Ok, I tried it myself, with SUS not PcCompanion.
After deleting build.prop, phone was unable to boot, tried to repair with SUS, and it simply said I already had the latest software and didn't give me a chance to repair. So no luck.
I'm not giving you my numbers since I did change them and lost the original ones, but I would be interested in the ones for Yoigo-Spain. For this carrier customization is very important since it uses a (semi)-virtual network and on custom roms I have to enable data roaming in order for it to work well. That,
If I'm getting the idea right, should be another reason to be interested in CDF numbers, so thanks for the thread!
is CDF = CDA in wotan?
if yes then
CDA: 1254-8478_R6D

Yes. Sony Ericsson first used CDF letters in older SE phones, then they used CDA, then now again they are using CDF, lol, but yeah, that should be CDF number.
Problem is that you only wrote number, we don't know what is region of that, or is it for some tele operater. That's why I said, this is for those on stock os, meaning didn't flashed some random .ftf file or flashed some fw from wotan or similar service for those who didn't messed with buil.prop.
Anw, tnx for trying but, at least write region of that CDF number, if it's written in the log's from wotan, or if you remember which region you used
In my SD there is a file named CDAInfo.txt with some XXXX-XXXX_XXX number
that maybe is for the customization of the SD. But, can they be related? and by that I mean equal?

Help with SI number mess Up

Having some mess up problem with SI numbers , so i flashed .162 fw back to try solve it. wishing to get u guys help for this pls
The SI number on the back panel and on the build.prop dont match. for eg: on the back panel say its 1261-1111 and on the build.prop its 1261-2222
I tried changing it in build.prop to same as backpanel (i.e. 1111) bt the pc companion and update service didnt showed the update. and then i changed it back to old one (2222) and this time it showed .184 fw update available. Cnt figure out why so happened.
any kind of guidance and help is much appreciated. :crying:
if im right, the SI on the back of your phone is like a reference of build date of your phone, while the SI on the build prop is your region.

XPU Original SI number refuses to repair

Hi.
My phone has liquid in the transparent bar. Thinking to send the unit to Sony for warranty.
However, my unit has the French FTF. I'm from Singapore. When I changed my SI number to my original one, 1261-4527, I couldnt find a available software for my phone. How do I force it? I search previous thread and couldnt work. My SI has ICS alrd.
the SI number you should looking for is the SI number on your build prop and not on the back of your phone if you want to have your original firmware back.
Fixed it already ^^
Thanks

[Q] [XPERIA P] about SI number change etc.

Hey guys;
Here's my problem, when I got My Xperia P, I immediately flashed Central Europe .544 FW FTF File to get ICS because it was not available in my country, now my SI number is different on build.prop than on the box; I was searching for an easy way to change it, I found a thread telling to change SI Number in Build.prop but in the comments some where saying that it doesn't work etc.
I read some posts and still I'm asking myself: wtf should I do ?
finally can I revert back to my stock SI Number or is there no way to get it?
I didn't backup anything, (I did but I have Formatted PC since and didn't keep the files so I now have nothing except a backup of My ICS FW with the different SI Number
EDIT: also I read some things about CDF number but don't really know what is this ;
pls somebody help! thanks ^^

[Q] SI Number =>Stock

I know that for Xperia U.."si numbers" are "old news", but i have one question..
The stock firmware (GB 2.3.7) that U came with when new.. had some SI number on the back on the phone and some SI number in the software(in build.prop) , so my question is: are the two of the SI number's the same on the stock factory software or not?
THANKS
