@ 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.

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.

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] X10 Firmware help

Heya
Basically im on Orange in the UK on firmware version 1.6, build number R2BA020,
I have seen various posts on the site saying 026, my question is why have i not had this update, am i supposed to get it as seus says its up to date. My phone as far as i know has no branding, Im confused, any reason why i am still on the 020 build with baseband version 1.1.25.
Thanks
Vengeance
Run the repair option using PC Companion as some have said that has brought the newer fw.
Hi - I believe that the Orange handsets are branded - there's just no obvious sign of it!.. I think it's just Orange wanting to carefully (over carefully!) control the distribution of f/w to their phones... Wouldn't worry about 026 now - may as well wait for And 2.1.. Having said that - if you want 2.1 anytime soon you may need to debrand..
Suggest you contact Orange and ask them when they will be releasing the 2.1 f/w.

[Q] unable to update to 2.1 (download?)

Ok so I tried updating my australian (3) X10minipro to uk generic. Sony companion tells me it was upto date.
Not a problem I thought, well I must have the uk firmware...
So I went ahead and edited build.prop again to install 2.1. Same problem? Sony companion tells me the phone is upto date.
Thats ok I went and tried to force repair of phone but now im told:
"unable to download your phone software. please check your internet or try again later."
Screenshot:
http://www.box.net/shared/cpvz526x06
Any help appreciated. Have I done something wrong. I am using the build.prop out of a thread in this forum.
Thanks
Hmm now I'm trying to edit my build.prop to the uk one again. So I can try force restore on that then try the 2.1 firmware again.
rm build.prop
rm failed for build.prop, Read-only file system
Any idea on this too? It's all so frustrating no-one else seems to be having any problems.
The update is not yet available anywhere else than the nordic countries... It will be more widely available in the next weeks... Changing to UK f/w won't help...
That is correct. I am trying to update my australian x10 mini to nordic firmware. This is entirely possible.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824766
Are you a sony ericsson representative?
ok. Got the uk prop file on the phone. i used root explorer to mount the filesystems read write. same original error now.
pc companion download error.
im lost now... what am i doing wrong
I can only tell you that changing to UK prop won't help because 2.1 has (to the best of my knowledge) not been released in the UK yet.
But dont I need uk generic before doing an update to nordic 2.1?
That's true... I'm awaiting as well. I have the UK generic ROM... I thought will be the first one, but most of us were wrong...

You need a nordic generic to update to nordic 2.1.
UK is not a nordic country (serious apologies if that comes across as patronising)

How do you know if you have the UK Generic rom?
I got my mini pro on o2 last week but there is no o2 branding at all on it.
Get into secret menu (on locked screen push: home, back, back, home, back, home, home, back) and then in Software Info if you have the customization version: 137-392_R8A, if not, yours isn't unbranded, it's a custom o2 rom.

New Update Avaible

A new update from SE is avaible for Xperia x8
it's version is 2.1.A.0.390.
It isn't avaible for Poland so I can't check what it gives to us.
Tell me what to do if this is multitouch update to upgreade my x8
Oy!
Not available in Norway either. Think we were among the first to recieve previous update, so I'm a bit puzzled.
According to version number, it's the same as mentioned in the multitouch thread.
Any guestimates on its rootability?
Anyone have Cust code that have this yet?

If I only could get SI number with avaible update I could get it...
Can you give m SI code for the latest update 2.0.2? Cause I'm in Bulgaria and here we still don't have 2.0.2. I dont want chinese firmware. Nordic SI code will be perfect.
In chineese you can change language -.-
But still I want nordic FW. The updates there comes first, right?
Thought so, but I'm smack in the middle of "nordic", and no update so far.
Maybe this is caused by me running... i think it's the russian firmware?
I have no idea, but does the russian Si code is updated to 2.0.2?
Also not available here in Greece. Waiting...
Does anything change in location codes for each version?
If my memory serve me, I did post my localization code for nordic firmware around the time of 2.1 update. I'll dig a bit.
Edit: Forgive my nubness, but I believe this to be my "customization code" from the time of 2.1 updates: 1242-7327_R3B
No idea if thats what you're looking for.
no notification on the SE Update site?
is this update going to delete everything (apps, sms) from my phone again?
I'm from Russia, but we dont have this update too...
update not yet available for me too..
its been certified..

I need Stock ROM v1.6 Build No:1.2.A.1.174 baseband version:N/A

Please if someone own this version I need it very because my hardware keyboard id dead, and I want to send my X10mini pro back to my dealer, and this version was on phone when I bought it.
Without this version they wont accept my warrnity!
I tried searching for it everywhere but can't found nothing!
HELP!
Flash your phone via sony ericsson update service, your phone updated to android 2.1, baseband ...015.
Only way is with flashtool, but you need the android 1.6 .sin or .ftf files and i don't know where to get those.
I won't believe that they only take it back in version 1.6. version 2.1 is an official release and thus they should take it back for warranty issues.
sent with my x10 mini pro
Lol so not true its unreal who told you that pmsl

Hi..and thx for replay.
The problem is that my phone haven't update from SEUS.
I try more times to flash from v1.6 and SEUS said that I have the last version on my phone (in my country).
I read om few forums that people complain that SE won't make update for our country and they have not courage to flash with other ROM because of warranty..
Because of that I looking for this version of ROM!
I have a backup of this version but no way to install it back because of Xrecovery version. I made it with lower ver than v0.3 and now everytime I restore it back it stayed on Sonyericsson logo.
Its not a update and were not talking about pc companion we are talking about se update centrer ,,,its diferent it works every ware on all sony phones check it out again

I know that we talking about SEUS update center..Who mentioned PC Companion?
Now when I broke up my warranty, a I can to upgrade to 2.1.1.A.06 from any version!
But with version 1.6 (I tried once mounht ago) I can not!
As as mentioned in post above, I found lot of post from serbian forum where people complain the SEUS updater have not newer version for our country!
When you try to update it comes the message from SEUS: You have the latest version!

No ICS on new Xperia Ray?

Just received a new Xperia Ray locked to Orange. I have tried both the software update service and PC companion but both say my phone is up to date on 2.3.4.
The sony site says an upgrade is available for the phone (I even followed the link and upgraded my wife's Arc-S last night) but directs to install PC companion.
Orange suggest using the update function on the phone but none of these are updating; they all say I have latest firmware.
I checked the SI list and my code isnt there (well, not entirely) its SI 1254-3795.5
That last bit after the hypen doesn't relate to anything in that list.
Any idea how I can get it updated without rooting? Although there is a bit of Orange shovelware on there I would like to lose.
Phone was bought on 10th May from Orange online.
ICS 4.0.3 has been distributed to all ray a month ago. A new ICS 4.0.4 is rolling out but there are numerous people claiming their SI number are in the list but update service says they have the latest firmware. I for myself has that problem. This must be a problem from sony server.
Sent from my ST18i using Tapatalk 2
Is there any way of getting the firmware and flashing it legally?
I presume from the Orange shovelware I mentioned that I am going to have to wait for Orange to release an update (complete with more of their stuff I dont want)?
Just found this on the Sony support forum:
Even if SI numbers are added for the cell phones, updating the phones will not be possble, as Sony Xperia Support team Member Johan, said that there's some problem with the server, and so people runining GB currently will not be able to update using PCC or SUS. We need to wait, for the update to resume again, and all the problems with the servers removed.
Looks like patience is needed or I flash manually...
Or if your phone is branded, the operator might have blocked the updates for your phone. Then you have to contact Orange.
Can I flash it manually with the Nordic firmware without unlocking anything or rooting?

Brilliant...all done and running 4.0.4. Dont remember it being that easy when i used to flash my HD2.
Best of all...no Orange bloatware.
Still need to get it unlocked though...
Hi can you comfirm if your text and gmail app is working on your nordic firmware
As my
Gmail wont send photo attchments it says sent but never shows up on other end
Also text say sending but never send
Thank you
I've got the same problem with my Orange UK Ray, my issue is that's it's on a contract through work so I'm not sure I'm allowed to update the software unless I use the Sony website.
I contacted Orange to find out if they have a date for ICS on the Ray, they quoted "end of the year - more likely December rather than November"! I'm desperate for ICS, does anyone know if I void the contract if I upgrade to ICS by flashing the Nordic software?

I have an Orange UK Xperia Ray and got bored of waiting for ICS so I flashed mine to a stock 4.03 Central European firmware, which then updated to official 4.0.4 through PC Companion. This was a couple of months ago but Maps / Navigation is not as stable as GB, having frozen a couple of times so have mixed feelings. Flashing different firmware to the one it shipped with invalidates your warranty AFAIK...
If anyone has a copy of the UK Orange FW for SI 1254-3795 in .ftf format I would appreciate it for the stability and warranty, seeing as an official update is on the horizon.
