UK Generic 2.1 - Update available? This morning... - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Phone for the first time showed software update available itself this morning? selected it, then it said looking for available networks, found my 3G then said you already have the latest software?
Is this right? anyone had an update this morning? wondering if its the UXP update to timescape/mediascape as Ive removed these might not like it

Guys Check out here :- http://www.sonyericsson.com/update/?lc=en&cc=gb#

Hmm might reflash the phone to get the update since ive removed half the SE stuff probably nacked it!

do you have SE core apps removed from the phone?

no mine is running standard generic world 2.1, debranded on vodafone rooted with z4

I got a update message on monday, when i got home it said my phone was up to date hmmmmmmmm.

i'm running generic world 2.1, i get nothing on the ota, pc companion and seus. however, i wonder if this has something to do with removing the semcsync apk from system/app. and that's why the ota update isn't showing for ota update for me.
i think tonight i'll try flashing the rom, leaving it as is, and trying the updates to see if i get it.

I got the UK generic update ages ago... could this be a further update? OTA update check on mine says nothing available..

@ 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

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.

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.

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?

Yes.
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.

Wanted UK Generic ICS

Has anyone from the UK had an update yet?
nothing here so far.
someone on the sonymobile forums claimed that the uk update was released but fails to install?
i've tried update from the phone, update via website, update via pcc and update via sony update service.
none of the above give any different results, it always says that my phone is already up to date.
No update as yet for the UK.
Sent From Xperia Arc
PVC said there was an update on my 1257-3114 today, but when I attached the phone it said I was up to date
should now have rolled out, does any one have the FTF?

[Q] Anyone recieved portico eu_euro1_276

Hi, has anyone received the Portico update for unbranded CV_GB OTA for eu_euro1_276?
I flashed the pre portico EE rom and the update appeared straight away, but when I flashed back to CV_GB pre portico rom the update does not show up so I'm assuming that the update for that variant has not been released yet.
Can anyone say otherwise?
unlocked devices seem to have not got the update yet, hang in there and you'll get it soon

It seems that most manufacturers are now doing the same thing, waiting for carriers to check their settings etc then rolling all the settings up into the unbranded rom. I did have a galaxy s3 and it was the same with jelly bean rollout. The unbranded rom came almost last! I think it's because in the past phone manufacturers rolled out unbranded updates first but if the settings for carriers were wrong it was the carriers that got it in the neck from customers!
Oh well I'll keep waiting, I know I could flash from ncs but I think I'll wait for ota. Im fed up installing apps again from scratch because for me backup only ever restores my text messages and nothing else?

[Q] No OTA updates?

I purchased 2 xperia tablets from EE one in December as Xmas present the other in Jan/Feb for myself.
The first one I purchased is receiving OTA updates quite often and has been on kit Kat for months now, mine is still running jellybean and has not had a system update since I can remember
Both are SGP321 and mine does receive application updates through the Sony update centre
Currently on build 10.3.1.A.2.67
the other is on build 10.5.1.A.0.238
Manual refresh on update centre always comes back as "your device already has latest available system updates"
Any ideas why this one is not getting updates through?

Do the have similar customization numbers?
Your customization number can be found in your service menu under 'Service info' > 'Software info' > 'Customization Version'
If not. That is normal, because not all codes received .283 the latest firmware. If codes are similar try to update with pc-companion.
Yeah customisation codes are different... 1274-050_R4B and 1273-9362_R2D
Tried PC Companion anyway and same thing most up to date... annoying it is so far behind!
And boot loader locked on mine... great!
Is there anyway of installing a standard (but different customisation code) version on? Or am I basically stuck waiting?

1273-9362 is UK and it is updated to .283 firmware. 1274-0506 is T-Mobile UK and it is on 2.67 firmware. So all you need to do is to flash firmware via FlashTool. It's not difficult at all. Jusy look through tutorials.
