Well i tried to use the debrand method which is working with X10 using the information provided by user pulpoff in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835457
I edited my build.prop file using his ro.semc.version.cust version but update service still did not allow me to update from 1.3.A.0.50 to .62 firmware. So obviously there are differencies between x10 and x8. We also do not have database with decrypted x8 firmwares yet and i am not sure if flashtool is also compatible with X8 (it is stated that it should work but i am not aware of anybody who tested it to X8 yet). If somebody is interested i can upload the files from my seus db folder to be decryptedi I have generic global firmware 1-.3.A.0.50 with following data from my build.prop.
ro.product.name=E15i_1241-3728
ro.semc.version.cust=1241-3728
ro.semc.version.cust_revision=R3A
Here is my software info:
phone software version:
1236-9291_1.3.A.0.50
Generic-user
file system version:
world-1-8_1.3.A.0.50
customization version:
1241-3728_R3A
If all you want is 1.3.A.0.62, keep your build.prop version at 0.50, than do update over SEUS with my country info.
I've done this a few times, also I have found nordic build.prop, but alas, X8 has no 2.1 update yet for nordic neither.

Thank you for this information pulpoff. I will try again to update this way. Can you please post the details of nordic build.prop just in case we need it when the update is out.
Using customization version 1241-3728 i managed to get the 1.3.A.0.62 update. This are some good news. At least when the update comes it will be easy to switch to the region where it is released first.

thanQ very much i'm updating nw my phone as urs
Do you have market in this version? and what the languge in ur market
last qusetion is what is the region of this version ?
THANKS again
Using both customization 1241-3728 and 1241-3708 i have market and many languages to use for writing and interface. My phone is on english now. If you are interested in any particular language i can check if it is present or not. Both firmwares listed (1241-3728 and 1241-3708) seem to be generic world but i don't know what are the differencies in customization.
well the phone is updating from SEUS right nw by ur software version
i have onther qusetion
when 2.1 update avialbale , the SEUS will update me as ur country version or as my countery version of software ?
If you debrand using my customization code you will make your phone software same as mine and so will get the update together with me. When the update appears we can always debrand to the region where the update is first released and update so do not worry about this.
wow that what i want
thank you so much
w8ing.... for my X8 to finsh downloading the software then insatlling
done and all the problem with me is fixed and the phone is more beautiful and faster
thats nice
thankx anyone try with me
nw we w8 for 2.1
Hi all,
I've tried to enter these details into the build.prop file:
ro.product.name=E15i_1241-3728
ro.semc.version.cust=1241-3728
ro.semc.version.cust_revision=R3A
with Root Explorer. The file saved and I then tried to update via SEUS however it's putting me back on to my old customization! Could you please post a step by step of what I need to change in order to get a different country firmware to my current as the one I have is from Middle East and therefore doesn't have the Market!!
Cheers
EDIT: Ignore me, tried it again and it has worked!! Not sure what the region is but I have Market now so am well happy. thanks for your previous posts with the customization codes
Great
enjoy , its better more than meddile east

I am currently using NTT Docmo Xperia x10 on android 1.6. Its model is SO-01b and i want to upgarde to android 2.1 and unlock the phone as well. But i am not clear which version to use , nordic or global. I am not sure but on according to wikipedia nTT docomo so-01b is based on x10a.
Please someone help me if anyone could give me suggestion.
My Docomo X10 is flashed to global generic 2.1 and running just fine.
Just don't forget to write down your APNs so you can put them back.
You want the "bizho" one, since that's the network where your internet fees are capped.
Thanks for the response gtkashi.I am now in Nepal and want to make the phone work here in Nepal by upgrading to android 2.1. Could u please clarify me whether flashing would make the phone sim free.
it won't. You're just updating the software, not unlocking the phone.
Get in contact with nttdocomo to see what their policies/costs for unlocking your phone are or try to see whether there's some shady services for unlock codes by now.
Global to Docomo firmware 2.1
With this upcoming update for Docomo, if you currently have global 2.1, how would we "instruct" SEUS to flash the Docomo firmware? Would we need to edit some *.prop ?
Personally I'm hoping someone would extract the firmware itself so that the flasher tool can be used to overwrite the existing one.
Either way, 30 min til Nov 10!
SE so-01B Gingerbread

i will like you to share my knowledge regarding returning back to own country firmware from the nordic 2.1
first of all download the bin4ry update tool and firmware but not any firmware but 1.6 firmware
downgrade your firmware from 2.1 nordic to 1.6 any countries firmware should work
then change the value of build.prop to your orginal handset value or your choice value.for more information about the value you can search blog
then try to update it with seus. if it say you have latest firmware then repair it with seus and if seus dont give option for repair then use pc companion .
if you are lucky then you will get the latest firmware or downgrade your firmware to your choice of firmware and that is great for now cauz if there is any update for your choice of firmware then you will get update so need to wait for while
i know this work cauz i have done this by first of all i was using nordic 2.1 thou my orginal firmware is uk generic then i downgrade my firmware to netherland 1.6 and then i change the value/replace it with my orginal build.prop and now this mornign i repair my phone with seus and it is working like acharm 2.1 ..hurry guys ...
i have included my build.prop 1.6 so this should work for each and every one
Thanks for share.
I dit it myself with my original italian firmware few days ago. Now, i'm trying to decrypt my original firmware. I've seen a tool here. Do you remember that?

Use the NL one in the link above, root the phone using Androot, copy the build.prop from the first post to /system/usr and replace the old one, then open PC Companion while your phone is connected and click update.
Hi @all,
i am looking for the 1.6 German Firmware, i would go back from 2.1 because i have now problems with my bluetooth hands free
Thanks badboybiky and Skeldave.

Wanted to ask,
I have 2.1, using nordic build.prop method, and now the 2.1 generic UK update has been released so is it possible to replace the nordic build.prop with a generic 1.6/2.1 build.prop so it updates my phone to the UK's firmware,
any help will be appreciated
No replies?
can I just upload a UK generic 2.1 build.prop and re-update my phone?
I already try to restore my original 1.6 build.prop for have the 2.1 FR firmware, but it doesn't work : after restore, the build.prop is the same as 2.1 Nordic
sorry for my bad english, i'm french
I see, so it must be the same update then (meaning nothing different in nordic than uk) thanks for the reply
Yeah, because if you check in the build.prop, it's the same "version fs" : World 1-8 but not the same product name : E10i_1236-9436 for my 1.6 ROM and E10i_1238-0549 for 2.1
It's strange
Yeah I too Wanted To Do The Same As I Have Flashed Using Binary's Guide Nordic Firmware But now Firmware 2.1 is officially Released in My Local ( India ) What To Do Guys ?
Sent from my E10i using XDA App
First, you should check your old 1.6 and new 2.1 build.prop and compare the ro.semc.version.fs value (for me it's world-1-8)
If it's not the same, then replace your actual (2.1 nordic) build.prop by your 1.6 india. Then restore with SEUS
Hopefully this will help you

In my case, both says WORLD-1-2-5, I have upgraded from 1.6 to 2.1 using a Brasilian build.prop, now in Argentina 2.1 has been released, last night I tried to change the firmware using the OLD build.prop and it doesn't work. So I GUESS i need a updated argentinian's 2.1 build prop... again I GUESS.
What you guys can try is -
Restore your original 1.6 build.prop, (Or just change product.name, all three instances) save it and shutdown the phone (remember do not switch it on, you will stuck on SE logo forever)
Go to Sony ericsson>update service>db>some_number>blob_fs folder and delete all the files (or cut-paste them somewhere else)
Connect your phone to update service and force repair.. You will hopefully get back to your original version.
I restored my phone to original version through this method... Hopefully it will work for you too..
Hi..
I m heaving x10i with t-mobile, how can i upgrade to 2.3.3?
Please help.....m new to xda..
Thanks in advance.....
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
You may be new to XDA but at least you posted your question in the right place. A lot of XDAers who behave and sound like they know what they are doing, don't even follow this rule. So don't worry!
Basically there are 2 ways to upgrade to 2.3.3. One is (1) to upgrade through PC Companion, and the other is (2) to flash pre-rooted version of the ROM.
If you have never used a flashtool or never flashed a ROM before, you should probably go the route (1). All you have to do is to install the PC Companion and connect your X10i to the PC. But you have to wait until an update becomes available for your version of installed 2.1 firmware. Here is something you should take a look at. If you happen to be in the legion where no official 2.3.3 is unavailable now, you may still be able to upgrade anyway if you know how to edit build.prop.
Going through the route (2) is a little more complex than (1) but if you read this or/and this carefully it shouldn't be that difficult.
model no x10i
fw version 2.1-update 1
bb version 2.1.54
kernel version 2.6.29 [email protected]#1
build no 2.1.A.0.435
what should i do to update?
Download the flash tool.
Doiwnload the firmware.
Flash.
Hi guys,
I have a Xperia Mini Pro with this configuration...
Model: U20i
Firmware: 2.1-update1
Baseband: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404006
kernel: 2.6.29
I'm still a noob at installing new versions of Android.
Can anyone tell me how i update the Baseband to M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015?
I already have it rooted, i just can't install modified androids because of this baseband!
Thanks! Any help is welcome!
You need to update the phone using the SEUS app. This will upgrade your baseband but will also wipe any existing mods & data.
Simply Run the SEUS program and follow the intructions given on screen. Once you've updated, your baseband will be updated.
--
Not sure why your baseband isn't already, having re-read the post you say it already has 2.1 update-1 which is wierd. Try updating the phone again anyway it might solve your problem
You can update with pc companion

Try updating via PC Companion or SEUS, like that:

You need to change your build.prop file to fool SE that you have a different version so they'll send you the 015 version. To do this you must:
1. Root the phone.
2. Google and download a build.prop file for your phone (exact model).
3. Change your current /system/build.prop with that one using RootExplorer (or similar).
4. Reboot the phone.
5. Update the phone with PC Companion.
