Read a lot first and then flash.

You can get a piece of software from Sony which runs on Windows/Mac which will update your phone when connected via a USB cable.
Click here to go to the download page.
It's worth saying before you take the plunge though that all newer versions of Android which Sony has released for the Xperia U are slower than the version you're currently on.
After updating mine to the latest version and spending a number of months getting increasingly frustrated at how slow it had made my phone I ended up rooting and unlocking the boot loader on mine so that I had the ability to do something about it, even if it did mean losing my warranty.
I don't mean to put you off, just to give you all the facts before you make the decision... good luck!

you can not update your device because there are only selected country for updates, unfortunately, its not available in your country, but there's some thread that you can update your phone using the flashtool, click on the links that they give, it might help you.

@ Greg
Just connect the phone (X10) to your PC and it will pop up with different installations. Install the Sony Ericsson PC Companion and it will tell you that there’s an update ready.
Then follow the instructions. This is a firmware update!
That worked for me!
My version is 1.0.16"
My phone allready have 1.0.16... (not upgraded it)
I also want it !
hhhmmmmmm, the fun that ill have come tuesday!!
Yes there is a 16 update around and no i can't update to it either...maybe it's generic vs carrier again - that's why we need root/custom roms!
I've got the .16 upgrade on my phone, I don't notice much of a change though.
firmware update
hello,

even iam from india iam on .14 but whenever i check it states "firmware is upto-date".
Just upgraded mine from 14 to 16 last night by using Sony Ericsson Update Service. This is a baseband firmware update, so you won't be able to update via Android's update firmware feature.
Hello, in france, via SEUS the latest FW is still the 1.0.14. And I still have poping and cracking. Hope the 1.0.16 solve this issue.
Best regards
I'm located in Belgium and I also can't update to .16 software.
boy does this phone need 2.1!!!!!!!!!! its a gonner without it i am afraid. functionality and stability from 2.1 firmware will bring out the beast in this phone. 1.6 right now is too limited for what this phone is capable off so SONY dont let us wait too long! i know min issue would be adding media and timescape to 2.1 but it needs to be done!
Mine is a Vodafone UK Handset, SEUS is saying mine is up to date.
Model X10i
BaseBand. 1.0.14
Kerbel Verison. 2.6.29-rel
Build No. R1FA014

Looks like Vodafone are lagging with a firmware release.
Andy
Go to Sonys webbpage, dowload and install the software update service, follow the guide for X10 and install the latest update. It is easy to do and the last firmware is 1.0.16
Any Q?? you just ask.
Regards.

Ive done all that, it says my phone has the latest firmware on it. Currently i have firmware 1.0.14
Is this another delay with Vodafone being slow to release software?
No this is Sony Ericson soft and has nothing to do with Vodaphone. I just ran the program my self and had no problem at all. Just try it again.

It has more than you think. If the phone is branded then Vodaphone has to approve the update before it can be delivered through SEUS.
This is the same issue i'm facing with 3 Denmark, the phone has ONE extra app(3MobileTV) BUT that means that 3DK has to approve ALL software updates from SE before it can be installed...
This is why we desperately need root/custom roms
Ok, thank´s for updating me on that. But i still think it´s strange.

[Q] sony companion software shows that update available

I flashed my x10 to android 2.1. After doing that when i connect my phone and use Sony's PC Companion software then the software brings up a message which says "there is an update available" and asks for me to update. I am on AT&T in USA and i know that AT&T has not released any 2.1 update for x10 yet. So what update is PC companion giving me???
Any ideas????
is you phonw branded?
have you used MT toolkit??
maybe any of those are the reasons, also in which fw are you?
why don't you try updating it?

Once you flash to 2.1 you are not affected by ATT update releases. That update is just to remove root. Hopefully you haven't updated already
Also, use the SEARCH button
new update!!!
I just received a notification on my phone about a new software update. Is this the official Multitouch update we have been waiting for from SE or is it a false alarm?
I am on AT&T
I believe it's a false alarm, you won't get the MT.
it was not a false alarm for me. I got multi touch on my phone after i ran the update. Now my phone shows 2.1.A.0.435...
now when you solved the problem, please add this : ''[SOLVED]'' to your thread name.

If I were you, I would stay on gingerbread, cause it's more stable, etc.
If you want to update look here for the rom ftf and for flashtool here.
But flashing voids warranty, so better try to update via for example seus, for that look here. It's the official sony tool and maybe with this you can update.
May I ask where are you from, because it should be available via pc companion...
If you want rooted ics you will have to do it with this tutorial
first say u helped me a lot, . and im from bangladesh. i tried to update my phone using pc companion that i got in the free 2gb mmc, .and also tx for the advice, i got that many user have prblm in ics

That doesnt matter unless he wipes data/factory reset via recovery. Also to solve that you simply flash custom kernel.
@ OP
Plenty of topic on here that cover updating roms, flashing new stocks, flashing customs etc. I suggest you start some reading.
Oh ok thanks a lot guys.....

Why do I think your numbers is wrong. I see that you missed something out of numbers? Numbers should be eight digit, like XXXX-XXXX for example.
Your numbers maybe is 1293-7740, Saudi Arabia.
The update on Android 6.0.1 with compilation 26.3.B.0.131 is available and should have received it.
Via computer or over your phone check for updates?

Yes ! you are correct that's the correct number.I'am sorry I have made a mistake.
The CDA is correct but the build number is wrong as the Saudi Arabia one ends with R6C where as my no. ends with R6A.
Will it be compatible with mine?
I can send you a screenshot of my service menu if you give me your email address
BTW I'am really grateful to you!
@Thisura, That your current software ends with other initials, does not mean that the new can not be with others initials. This shows the new revision of software so that it is not a problem.
I asked if and how you try to update? Via PC or over the phone. Still no notice of the update is available if you attach your phone to the computer with Pc Companion program?

Hi!,
Before flashing using the Xperifirm, I just did a software repair on the PC Companion and voila! the Marshmallow update was installed on it without the lollipop one!
Again,many thanks for your response and I think the users who haven't received the Marshmallow just try this method i'am sure it will work for you as well!
