Ok,I have a somewhat stupid question but honestly,I can't find the solution at the moment...
I'm using an xPERIA Mini with unlocked bootloader,MESA kernel and the official ICS .431 ROM.
How can I update to the latest .587 ROM? I know I can't update through the "official" ways since I have the unlocked bootloader but I also can't find any Generic World FTF to flash either.
So,any help on this?
Thank you in advance!

I think GB is still the best. Try this ROM from sandy and shprakash

It looks like ICS but runs like GB in terms of stability and speed.
Any news? Meanwhile I think I m gonna give Paranoid Android a try!

Still no sign of a flashable .587 huh?
There s also a new baseband 77.

THE FIRMWARE IS GOING TO BE RELEASED ON NEXT SUNDAY FOR XPERIA MINI PRO.. ie 16th september. CHEERS!!
source for this info?
visit sony website support

2012-8-16 must be a mistake, it should be 2012-9-16
Thank you!

I don't think date is incorrect - Sony probably did release fw, but roll-out is very slow... same was with first ICS fw... It was released but only few people was able to update...
So I think that ftf will come very soon
If someone got it already, let us know

Mini or Mini Pro?
Sent from my ST15i using xda premium
xPERIA Mini
Both mini and mini pro are listed to have 4.1.B.0.587 update on Sony website since 16 august 2012, but none of both has gotten any update regardless the country/region.
I guess Sony is playing with us, so when user of Mini/Mini Pro asking about the update, then Sony could answer: "the update is available, the reason that you don't get the update is because it isn't available for your country/region yet, you need to wait." and Sony would say this to every user of Mini/Mini Pro from every country in the world.

Did anyone know Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 stop update the official ROM?

but i thought there were plans for a few more 2.1 updates?
yes they have said that no more android version update, but they will still update x10 interface

I Doubt that though,as they said the ".435" update is the "UXP Update" they promised long ago so,im not sure they will still do anything for the X10.
If ya dont believe me check this : http://www.xperiax10.net/2011/01/31/se-confirms-latest-xperia-x10-update-is-the-big-uxp-update/
Honestly,im not sure if it is or not cause i havent even tested it,just installed latest baseband and went for FreeX10 Beta4 from Z,so couldnt care less
Regards ^
i think there will be more update as the timescape widget got a new name (simple) so i believe there will come a new update
there is a link here on xda that shows there is 3 more firmware version from sony ericsson for x10 the one is 2.1.1

wasn't .435 the dualtouch update?
i think the interface update is rolling out soon, as some members reported that there were firmwares being certified at the end of January, which means that we'll get the update by March?

Good luck.. Hope you will post some screenshot afterwards..
The baseband is still 72 ?
just a curious question, does the home launcher in 4.1.B.0.587 is smoother now like in GB? the only reason i had moved to my own ported miui because of it's too lag in 4.0.4
Out of curiosity which country is this update for?, I'm still waiting for the original ICS update in UK, and my phone is sim free, and they haven't updated the SI Numbers for a month.
recieved the update here .. in egypt
Anyone can post the ftf file?

btw, did you lose the ROOT ???
Wonder what the deal will be with rooting this one? Hopefully it won't be like ICS 4.0.4. - i.e. using Flashtool to flash 4.0.3 kernel (then root & CWM) and then flashing back to 4.0.4 again. Then again, if someone posts up an .ftf for .587 it should be straightforward enough. Hopefully anyway!:fingers-crossed:!
I got update in georgia but same global fail while downloading firmware.. almost bricked my phone..
I got the update, UI just like previous stock one, but feels lot more smoother than before. I added some screenshots

Yes, this for international version, I'm uploading the american version too.
And I confirm that can root and install clockwork mod such in 431 firmware.
Just flashed to 4.1.B.0.587. The UI is definitely smoother, and the camera lag seems to be gone as someone else has pointed out. Also the phone in general seems to be faster. I can also confirm like the others that the rooting trick for 4.1.B.0.431 works on this new firmware.
Could you guys please post some link with rooting instructions and necessary files to achieve it? Thanks a lot.
guys what about led notification? sms, missed call? working or not?
I can find one for st15i but they are different and the "i" version will not work for me. Anyone got this? I've looked everywhere. Wotan seems to be the only place to get it. Prefer rooted, unrooted is fine too. Thanks!

1. Are you saying that that this ftf seems suspicous to you? BTW, I was the first to upload the ICS update for Xperia sola, and people all over the world are using my ftf including many xda members. Still think I'd upload a suspicious ROM ?
2. Here are a bunch people asking for the Indian Rom .
And If mods think that this thread is useless, then they can delete it. I have no problem.
As I said before. We have an official thread. It contains all the official and unofficial rom for xperia. WHY YOU MAKE ANOTHER ONE?? We have official India rom
I see no point in adding another rom. And yes, I am suspicious of these situations.

That Indian f/w was ICS...this is GB, we didn't have a GB f/w for India up till now, we only had the central Europe version, and the Asian version...and the Asian version was pretty much useless cuz it was in chinese, and it didnt have any google apps, not even play store...
and another reason why I added this rom is because many people are reverting back to GB since ICS is lagging at some places for them...

Lol, first thing is a four *s. Congrats, you've made it to top clown of the week.
1) Nobody asked if you believe
2) If you find it suspicious, there's the X at the right top of the screen
3) Unknown reason? He explicitly stated it in the first post
4) You don't see it? Doesn't mean its not there. Requests could be by PM or his actual friends asking him in REAL LIFE.
5) Lastly, the 'official thread with any official ROM' includes this ROM. So what about it now?
All in all, why do you care if you're not going to use it?
Seesh, if you're not going to do any virus scan etc of it to prove your suspicion, don't talk so impolitely when others are bothering to make an effort to share useful stuff.
Variations and other download links will help users who need it to get ROMs faster or specific to their region.
P.S. People do know how to read and check before they post things up.

Maybe SONY release update on GB because GB latest is .62 and this .84

I don't remember saying I know the best. but Sony [Ericsson] tends to release newer firmwares for specific models with higher numbers and letters, it's always been that way (for example, in my old W810i's case R4DB001 firmware was followed by R4EA031, then R4EK001, then R4GC031 if I remember correctly; same with Android firmwares - 4.0.2.A.0.42, then then .58, .62, then 4.1.0.B.431...). also, the news just said they released the source, so maybe it's some ditched GB firmware they decided to share, as they've already moved '11s to ICS?
Maybe not a new firmware but just the device specific driver sources for the devs? That would be awesome!!!! (Just a guess)

Doesn't make much sense to me that they'd release an "update" on an obsolete OS
They should update ICS, which is the current OS.
I was thinkin', maybe they're just releasing the source code... Which doesn't mean they're gonna release .ftf or update.
But in the end who knows, we'll just have to wait and see
