I was owned ARC since April / May 2011, then sold it, because of poor quality, then go for Galaxy S2.
ARC has firmware 2.3.3 release at 25 May 2011 mid night for Hong Kong region, Wednesday.
This make me believe today Wednesday, mid night, the X10i 2.3 firmware release for Hong Kong region.
I am estimate this happen again.
Cheers

Well good luck, Markus had said they are on the final preparation, so we sure hope so.

2.1 initial firmware requirments (based on info from 29/10/10)

So it has been announced today that the first kits will be released this Sunday Evening. In Nordic Countries. (Finland, Iceland Sweden etc.)
Considering we all suspected UK to be the first to obtain 2.1, a lot of people have flashed to Generic UK.
Is it still possible to flash to Nordic Generic? Only if needed
Thanks in advance.

Edit: could someone state what Generic Global firmware is and the name of the Nordic firmware. Would like to keep this thread as infromative as possible.

Yes, but how do you flash those two files. They have no extension
You have to use the SEUS method explained in the tutorial, dont think you can use the FLASH TOOL with these.
Dont forget that you need 50% battery
Thanks for the replies. I will do this when I go home and edit my first post so everyone can see who what were and when before Sunday, saves multiple threads and confusion

Will not work
Jumping to Nordic Firmware will not help you to get the latest ROM for 2.1 when it's releases. SEUS and OTA will read your device for hidden manufacturing data and only allow devices built for that market to receive the update. I described this several times in the general 2.1 coversation. SEUS will know if your device was built for T-Mo UK, AT&T, HK Generic, LAM Generic, etc... and force you to wait for your approved version. Sony Ericsson is firm in their commitment to complying with all legal and compliance standards of various countries and operators. Sorry but you'll just have to wait your turn.
Come on you TROLL, this is a complete nonsense ! Just keep your mouth shut if you've got no idea what u are talking about.

It's not nonsense. For one SEUS can read your IMEI number. Instant disapproval of firmware right there. There are also other hidden mechanisms in SEUS and OTA to overcome you spoofing IMEI or similar attacks.
SE has you beat because that's how they want it. This is not an open developer phone. This is a consumer phone. Even HTC has begun locking you out through hardware controls that eliminate ROOT and Custom FW. Android is now owned by the carriers and the manufacturers must comply. Appeal to Meizu if you want Developer devices in the future. They'll likely bend over for any type of sale at the moment.

Rogers X10 Android 2.1

Android 2.1 has been released for Rogers in Canada
It is only available through PC Companion and not OTA.

I just checked through PC Companion and it's still telling me that my phone has the latest software. I checked OTA as well with the same result. I'm going to check using SEUS and see if what that tells me.
Where in Canada are you? I'm in Edmonton and nothing yet for me.
Ya same here nothing im in ottawa
Just checked using SEUS and still nothing.
I saw on the Android forum that a couple people in Ottawa got the notification but it doesn't seem to be consistent as other people in the thread said that they weren't getting despite them being from Ottawa as well.
I'm curious if anyone has found a way for those of us with an x10a running x10i firmware to easily trick SEUS into updating for the x10a. I'm currently running the Nordic 2.1 and would love witch to Rogers 2.1 once it's released....anyone have any ideas?
I do recall something about the updates being "staggered" to minimize the load on the servers.

there are several posts on how to " trick " it into taking the update so just wait a bit, someone will post the firmware with the flash tool, same one you used for nordic and you will be all set.
All of the posts I've read indicate we shouldn't mix x10i and x10a codes as SEUS would either not work or ignore the phone. Unless I missed something?

If I understand the posts correctly they are much like the Nokia product or region codes.. with said codes it will tell the server where you are located. So its like a address of sorts.. the server checks the phones and says Oh Hello! You are in Canada here ya go.. or Hallo! Sie sind in Deutschland .. as I said someone will surely post a how to guide. if you mix the codes you will have a phone with firmware from another country well that is my take on it.

Then do us a favor and update the FW from your PC companion/SEUS folder.
somebody will decrypt it.
I just talked to a Rogers technical support representative and was told that the update has been released, but Sony, as usual, did not prepare for the immense traffic and the link to the download is up and down. I was told that we should be able to update later today, but that the only way to check for the update is through PC Companion - it will NOT appear as an OTA notification on the phone.
Hope this helps!

I'm with Tux. I'll wait for some other helpful Rogers user to post the firmware, and then I'll look into flashing to that.
Haven't had any problems with my X10a running Nordic firmware (other than taking longer to get started with market downloads), so I'm not in a huge rush. It would be nice to have proper X10a firmware though.

+1 on that I just want my model to say x10a at some point soon-ish.
Changed my build. Prop and fired up pc comp, gives me a server error....

Well one of us is misunderstanding at this point. I'm not home at the moment and don't have time to link, but the thread in here somewhere states very clearly not to use an x10a CDA if you have an x10i phone as SEUS will not detect the phone. I guess I'll just wait I guess.

That was for 1.6 fw
For 2.1fw Binary (or was Jerpelea) wrote that is ok to use it as SE probably unified the basebands.
Problem is, my 2.1 is crashing about 5 times (or more) daily.

Youre gullible as hell is you believe that. Good ole Rogers.
It's gotta be related to your install. Using original global 2.1 with root in New bRunswick with absolutely no issues

Using the CDA trick works. I have the global X10i firmware on my X10a and changed it's CDA to the generic Brazil one and it gave me the option to repair to the X10a 2.1 generic brazil firmware. I am assuming that the same can be done with the Rogers CDA once it fully goes live.
I didn't do it as I am happy with the global one....no issues.
Just to clarify, I actually work for a particular company that is involved in this, and we were notified that the update was to begin rolling out today.

I don't have 2.1.1.A.0.6 yet, this is normal?

I don't have 2.1.1.A.0.6 yet, is this normal?
all time I have previous version and I don't have chance to update.

As most of the themes/roms require u to use 06 firmware, this is probably a good time to update buddy

Hey bro,
I think it is normal that the update has not come to your country or region yet as i live in new zealand and i only got a msg to update from pc companion in the middle of march but I'm pretty sure that FW was released mid to late Jan. Now this is only my opinion and i could be wrong about everything, but my reasoning for this is that every cell provider in each county that sell the mini pro must have to do their own little tweaks to the software that SE provides. Anyway i hope this helps.
Cheers,
Jeremy.

2.0.A or 2.1.A both are Android 2.1, they don't have big different each other.
My English also poor because I'm Chinese,I hope you can understand what I mean.
I want to update my soft becouse I want to install CyanogenMod
I need to have new version of kernel.
I want it too!
GOODLUCK!
Which Kernel version do you have?
I'm running 2.6.29 with CM6 v3.6.
I have 2.6.29 kernel version
and 2.0.a.0.504
can I install CM6 on my phone?
Even though owain advises to do it with the newest firmware I went ahead and installed it. Been running it for a few days and no problems so far.

Im using 0.24 baseband, and I can rum very smooth with the CM7 mod. But still you can update to the latest fw using seus update.

[Q] Will I get the 2.3 update?

I have an xperia x10a bought from bestbuy (att) and i have succesfully updated my phone to the Generic 2.1.1 on baseband 2.1.54 with build number 2.1.A.0.435. I am also rooted. My question is will i get the 2.3 update right away, because I am on a Generic firmware, or will i have to wait for some kind of an ftf or something?
I read around here that rooted phones are a no go, so you may want to unroot just to be safe
Yeah just in case something happens, unroot your phone. Apparently SEUS nor PC Companion will update your phone unless it's unrooted.
ok i unrooted my phone but the question was more about whether i will get the 2.3 update at the same time as everyone else because i have an att phone with generic firmware

You will get the update. At the same time as everyone else...probably not. However the good news is is once it is officially released someone here will get it and the devs will be able to create a .ftf file for everyone to have it using flashtool. So once it is officially released the devs will have it ready for us in no time...you wont have to wait for SE anymore.

Maybe pre-rooted as well?
Because I remembered when 1 of the 2.1.1 updates came and we can't root it when it rolled out, so devs made a pre-rooted ftf file.

Yes it is just the arabic ics update, no it is not last version, it's the second from last. .571 firrmware just came out a few weeks ago so there's still a lot of work in progress.
No, sony does not provide downloadable standalone versions of their firmware

It should, as usually sony uopdates are appliable to all countries where their software is dispatched. So if you have the arabic software from the link i posted and sony prompts you for an update then in theory it means you will be able to update the arabic version.
