can my X2 be updated? - XPERIA X2 General

can X2 from factory prototype build be updated? it is not for sale and the IMEI is 0044...................

I'm in the same position. I have a prototype too. This is what I know so far:
1. Ordinarily, SEUS will not update prototypes.
2. The member hertell has a method of faking the phone's software version so you apparently can update a prototype with SEUS. See the thread number 684323, for more information.
3. If your phone is bricked, you're absolutely stuffed until someone releases a proper ROM utility, like HARD-SPL, or some kind of Kitchen.
Hope this helps you

But my concern is that if my x2 with 0044...IMEI can connect SE software update server. If it will lock my x2 or bricking it.

can anybody tell me if DEMO X2 with inofficial IMEI 0044010.......can connect SE online update sever to update sw rom?

It's only SE update program which connect with phone in bootlader mode and then with SE servers and check if there any new firmware. Tested two days ago and no new roms was available.

I have a Swedish X1. Just tried to update firmware and got the message that the latest firmware is already installed. The one I have is the one mentioned earlier in this post (SE CDF1215-3315) - which then is what the phone shipped with.

Run IE on your machine, then install Flash. Most likely you have Flash 10 for Firefox.

Do Not Update Your Xperia X1 Using The Sony Update Service...

Do not use sony update service just yet
Although Sony DO NOT yet have a firmware update for the Xperia, the update service still gives you the option to restore the phone by reinstalling the currant firmware version.
But DO NOT USE THE UPDATE SERVICE JUST YET, consult sony technical service first, if you are experiencing problems and are looking to restore via update service. (vista 32 bit, i also know one case on windows xp from a xperia user)
I carried an update to restore the original firmware and the phone got blocked(bricked) update stops at 11%
i had to send it back and purchase a new xperia.
Excellent phone, hope all Xperia users are enjoying the experiences with X1
WHAT??!?!?!?!? They didn't exchange it or something?
i dont understand, this is windows mobile, why would we need to upgrade firmware? If anything, we just need to hard reset the phone and its back to factory. I mean there are custom roms but we cant flash it until we have a hard spl
Updates
you wanna be able to update the phone to fix bugs in the FW, like the Bluetooth disabling itself issue, or the panels being slow etc.
As to y u would wanna re install the existing FW, some people might have messed around and bricked their phone, a quick solution would be to reinstall the FW.

Can you please help me, and tell me where I can download the Generic AT Rom for X1, I need to send it back, but was not able to get this ROM? even the Update service of SE, there is no option to restore, it say only, that there is no new software for it.
Please help, and is there any special SPL I need to use?
thanks in advance.
I'm glad I came across this thread. I was about check for updates but I sure wouldn't have reinstalled the same firmware version. Anyway, I guess I should just wait for the next update and update the phone after I find out how it makes the phone better.
... to late, ive already updated it with the latest dutch vodafone rom version. luckly it didnt brick.

please all the links to the latest version is very helpfull
also if you can explain to me how to install will be great
thank you
All official roms are here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475482
If you flash an official rom you dont need hard-spl as far as i know,
the how-to is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445662 or here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446070
Just read the rom development-forum...
About the SEUS - i think it is true waht it says, i didnt see any new ROMs for Canada, at least here on devs.
the phone is orignally from uk,, i did SEUS in uk last week..
now did it again here in canada..so same thing no update
i need to know what you guys recommend i should do..update what to what
also will my phone lock to its orignal network if i update? like i said its from 02 uk orginaly
and is the windows mobile version up to date? if you can let me know that will be great
I am not sure about this......
But I think that the SEUS application update is regional..
What I mean is that when you start it up and it ask you "Your Location" it will only check if there is an update JUST for the Region...
I have a X1i here in the US. When I first check, It gave me the same Message, "not update are available!!"
So I decided to change my Location to the UK!!
Viola!! it update my X1i!!!
hth,
Stuart
I dont really understand what you mean with "will my phone lock to its orignal network if i update?". Did you buy a locked one or what? actually if you have unlocked one it shoudnt lock whatever you do.
what you guys recommend

first i did US region,,no update
then i tried UK region twice...no update
so i dont know how you got it?
btw when did you update it?
Why dont you just download an official UK rom here on devs, copy it to your fat-32 SD card and flash it? you dont even need to hard-spl if you flash an official rom as far as i know and no need to think how to get seus to work.
Just connect it, it will update if it needs to, you won't see the update, but you will go through the procedures if the update is available.

[Q] New Software Update Is Available....

Hi all,
Got a message appear on my phone in the info bar today, says a new software update is available.
I've tried to follow it through but it says I must connect to the Sony Ericsson suite on my PC to get the update.
Anyone know what it is?
Ive got X10i FW1.6, Baseband 1.1.25, Kernel 2.6.29-rel with build R2BA020
Bought from Virgin Mobile (who supply them direct from SE factory completely unlocked with no carrier specifics on)
I may try to update when I get home from work tonight but the last time I updated the software from the PC suite it took about an hour and wiped the phone back to basic settings, I only want to do this if its Android 2.1!

I think it's R2BA026, Was news that they were realsed in the U.K and France to debranded phones
Its a good update, do it, forget for now the 2.1, it will stay 1.6, 2.1 will be lauched in 2/3 weeks.
and don't worry about wiping the phone - you won't need to with this update.
you will update to R2BA026

[Q] Updating Xpeira X2 with R3AC036 firmware using SEUS

Dear all,
I just saw in se-nse.net forum under the thread "Firmware List from SEUS" that the latest firmware for X2 is R3AC036.
Can someone help me out if this firmware can be installed on my phone.
My phone currently has R3AA035 firmware, GENERIC_SG. I live in India. I'm unable to update to this R3AC036 firmware using SEUS.
How do i update to that firmware. I read on some forums that this firmware has more updates.
Please let me know. Thanks in advance.
the update is in Chinese language you can check this thread for changes(use google translate)

Thank you very much. But i came to know about this firmware update after looking at this very link. Google's translation makes it all look crazy.
You're saying its a Chinese firmware, so that means there's no english firmware R3AC036?
Do you have an Xperia X2? Does it give good battery life?
My X2's battery gets drained really fast. I tried disabling Slideview and Panels but i did not see any drastic change. I reset the device to factory settings. Deleted a few unnecessary panels and the battery seems to last similar to when i disabled Slideview and Panels.
I really like Slideview and SPB panel. I just don't feel like deleting everything this phone was actually advertised for.
yes i have x2,the battery life is really good with moderate usage last 2 days
as for the panel system I've disabled it using sktools... for 2 reasons ... memory depleting and power hungry.
is there more info on this thing ?

No i guess not until some expert advice is seen here. I'm hoping someone here might look up into the highlights in the new update and whether there's an English version of R3AC036 for Xperia X2.
Would definitely love to have a perfectly functioning X2 instead of compromising by deleting and disabling everything in it.
Seniors please help us.
Experts, any help?
i think any one can update to this firmware by avery simple solution
-change language to chinese then update with seus , full description here
then you would get the new update,but the question is "can you revert back to your original rom???"

Hey, thank you, but that method looks a bit risky to me. If something goes wrong, the phone won't even have the customizations in its ROM to bring it back to normal.
Its strange that no one is talking about this new firmware in Xda. There must have been some reason SE has released the firmware update.
I'm wondering why SE hasn't released this new firmware for all regions?

I dont think that would solve his problem. Did you try updating on fresh installation of win 7. there should not be any problem with the os or the drivers because i've updated my X2 so many times with win 7.
Just let us know what method you're following after starting SEUS. Does your phone act normal when you do what you're supposed to do during that.

you try to check the Windows Firewall !! perhaps usbsync or wmdc have been blocked by them..
Is there anybody from China here in XDA who has an X2 and has updated their firmware? They would be the best people to explain the difference(s) between 035 and 036 firmwares. Please do not hyperlink to chinese forums and suggest using google translation.
Clearly explain the changes you've noticed in your X2 (better or worse, and how)
Please help all the X2 users.
please help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
