[Q] Need help for upgrade my X8 - XPERIA X8 General

Hi,
my X8 doesn't upgrade to 2.1. I rooted the phone, following the procedure and tried severel customization code but nothing to do. SEUS answers that there is no update available for my phone.
Now, my X8 is a protype, it has the following values:
ro.semc.version.cust=20100831161743
ro.semc.version.cust_revision=R1A
Can someone tell me if I can update to 2.1?
What does exactly mean revision=R1A? Is the problem related to the revision and can I update the revision to a new version?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Roberto

Would you like me to send you the build.prop file I used to upgrade my phone? It should work then.
Edit: Note when I upgraded my phone, I also took the sim out.

I tried with the SIM out with no success.
I going to send you a PM with my email for your build.prop. Thanks a lot.
Roberto

Xperia X10 Sim and Clock Problem

Hi all,
Hope you can help.
My X10 is fantastic BUT.....the clock has stopped updating itself and only works by manually adjusting the time and not having it set to 'automatic network-provided values'.
Could this be related to my problem I had last week? I was updating my security and was locked out of my phone, now each time I switch my mobile on I have to enter the PUK Code!
Very frustrating I cannot figure it out,my internet setting are default and turned on, I have a 3G signal...etc...can anyone help?
Many thanks
JP
Holy ....
Did you even think about using the forum search engine?
Example:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=38033592
Both topics have been discussed a few times...
@Mods: PLEASE close....
Hi McKebapp,
Thanks for your replay, sorry a late reply been out all day.
I did use the search engine and read the earlier posts however didn't feel I have obtained the answer I require.
Some suggest it is the network provider, debranding mobile, using task killer, none of which apply to me. It seems the only option or solution is to manually set the time?
I too have contacted Sony for support but no reply.
I have also searched for an answer to why my mobile is Sim PUK Locked each time I resart it?
Any help is appreciated.
JP
O.k., then I won't be that mean.
Could you please note some specs of your phone?
Whats the exact firmware version?
Do you make use of a taskkiller or not?
To you PUK problem: Please put you SIM card into another phone to check out if its a problem of the SIM itself...
Thanks McKebapp,
Glad Im not in trouble I do appreciate the help.
Mobile Info...
Model: X10i
BaseBand: 1.0.14
Kernal: 2.6.29-rel [email protected]#2
Build No: R1FA014
Firmware version: 1.6
As for task killer, I have no evidence of this or a simlar software on the mobile applications. Packages I have installed only include games, Swype & application installer)
I inserted the sim into my LG Viewty and it required the PUK to access the phone.
Thanks
JP
O.k. .14 is the oldest offical Firmware. Search the forum or xperiax10.net for the debranding tutorial and whip that thing atleast to .16 or directly to. 21 if there really is no task manager or killer or so running.
To your PUK: Talk to your provider, what is to do...
Hey about clock problem, i had the same problem & i reinstalled firmaware using SEUS & it helped. My firmaware is R1FB001 now. Check, may be you can also get latest firmaware
About sim, it seems you've problem with your sim card. You can get a new one from your carrier i think
I have this problem after unbranding my phone. If I use the automatic time feature it will be about 1 hour behind real time.
Setting up the time manually keep the time correct though, but I hope they do fix the issue with the 'May' update.
Hi Mckebapp,
Thanks for the help. I will look to upgrade the firmware as you hve noted.
Regards
JP

Really need help !

Hi guys i need help in updating my phone -
I am still stuck with R1FA014, whenever i go to pc companion or try too update via any other way it always says i have the lastest software can anyone help me please would be much apreciated.
Heres my phone info:
Model Number - x10i
Firmware Version - 1.6
Baseband Version - 1.0.14
Kernel Version 2.6.29-rel
Build Number - R1FA014
Because the update is not out in every country, not out for every carrier so depending from where you come from it might not be out. This is where this forum is useful, to install the one you want. But use the search, everything concerning this has been answered a thousand times
I couldn't find it .... So the update is not available to Orange UK users yet then ?

Issues about ROM, UPDATE, APPS & LAG FIX

Hi People
I am new to this Forum and please i need all the help i can get.
Over a month ago i upgraded my Galaxy S to a 2.2 using odin after o2 told me i was a pay as u go customer and could not get one.
However, i noticed Flash 10.1, youtube and some other apps will not update. Angry birds will not even install.
Is there anyway to update to the official Froyo, get the latest ROM and eliminate lags.
Thanks in advance
anybody please
@tcoker1,
Have you tried hard resetting(or even factory resetting) the phone?
It works for most cases..
Try using one of the custom roms. (Eg docs).they are very fast and are based on the newest official roms
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

[Q] Please anyone.. tell me how to downgrade to Xperia X10 v2.1 to v1.6?

Can any one please tell me how to downgrade Xperia X10 Android version from v2.1 to v1.6?
I have Xperia x10 Rogers (Canada) phone. My phone was locked once (the pattern problem) and to resolve the issue, I upgraded the android version to 2.1. It seemed to work.
But now my phone is working really slow. I'm also having service problems. Now I think it was much better with v1.6. Can anyone please tell me how to downgrade to the v1.6 (Eclair). Or if is there any other way of resolving this issue.
in desperate need of help

Here is the original 1.6 for Rogers Canada

...and here is the thread for the guide to step by step of flashing 1.6
Why don't you try "repair software" via SEUS or PC Companion before going back to 1.6? There are many Rogers members running 2.1 on xda, and I have never heard of this problem.
Also, to fix the lag problem, try rooting, optimizing (enable JIT), and removing SE bloatware like face recognition and timescape. All can be done with one click each with Flash Tool 0.2.9 found here....

[Q] How to update from 2.1 to 2.2 with a Error message?

Hi all,
I bought an unbranded HTC Legend second hand. The phone is running at 2.1 update 1. As far as i know its not rooted.
When I try updating to 2.2 OTA, I get the red warning triangle and the phone freezes. When I press power + volume up, I can see that there's an assert that failed when checking system files. The information for the phone is this:
Version : 2.1-update1
Radio : 47.39.35.09U_7.08.35.21
Kernel : 2.6.29-5F084974 [email protected] #1
Build : 2.05.405.2 CL191838 release-keys
Software : 2.05.405.2
Browser : WebKit 3.1
I have tried doing updates to 2.2 OTA, from the SD card and through the PC itself all with the same result. I did search for the problem here first before posting and came up with a solution here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=867890
Following the steps of someone who was having the exact same problem. I created a goldcard and downgraded to 1.3 and then OTA back up to 2.05. However when updating OTA again to 2.2 the exact same problem happened!
I am getting really frustrated, i am a total noob when it comes to things like this and have spent quite a few hours trying to get it to work.
If you guys have any suggestions, solutions or ideas that would be really really helpful. Please please please have something like a omnifixit.exe lying around i could use...
Thanks for your help!
Hello. It may be a possibility that you've got not unbranded but debranded device and update fails on CID check. If it is so, there are 2 methods:
1) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=866629
2) root device and flash BlaY0 or CM7 rom /more effort, better results
Cheers
Okay brilliant, I hadn't considered that.
I'll follow the instructions through this evening and let you know how it works out if at all.
much obliged for your help!
