[Q] Uodate 2.1.1.A.0.6 for E15a - XPERIA X8 General

Ok people here is the thing, i install the ROM with Update post in this thread which btw was a excellent work but just then i install it i figure that was a rom for a E15i device and mine is E15a device so 3G not work for me beside i didn't see some features in the menu area like the "Battery Optimizer".
After reading some other threads i find this but nothing happens. I change every line which is describe in the post but when i try to look for an update in the phone or PC Companion appears that my phone have the latest firmware version.
So what cab i do for update my device with a Firmware version for my E15a Device?
Thanks People great job that all of you are making right here.

Did you, by any chance made a backup with xrecovery? if so just restore it should work, changing your si number also must work, reboot your phone before going to update and when it says that you have the latest sw press on recovery or some thing like that, there are also other treads on how to flash using a software from one of the guys of this great forum, I believe is under X10 ...
Regards

No use for us, this update drops my phone perfomance, Quadarant score before update 467 drop to 436 after update, Neocore score from 45 fps drop to 37 fps. Why Sony release this useless update???

Please post si number for update E15a! Tnkzz

Nevermind ppl i just plug my phone to the PC Companion and the software tell me that there are a new update so in this right moment my phone is updating with i hope the lates firmware.
I think that this just matter for those who have a E15a device.

Could someone please share the previous firmware build number 2.0.1.A.0.47? I want to roll back my x8, but I need a fresh firmware without any modification and jit enable. Please help. Thank's for your effort.

Look man: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WH2G2U88 this is the Firmware for 2.1 with the 2.0.1.A.0.47. You need to download this package and use X10Flashtools in this thread to go back.
Any question just ask.
This firmware is for a E15a device not E15i

My phone is E15i, can I flash it with E15a firmware?

Yes you can but certainly your 3G service wont work.

I need 3G service on my x8, anyway for what purpose Sony release this update? My quadrant score drops from 471 to 437, Neocore drops from 45 fps to 37 fps.

Can anyone send to me the "build.prop" of E15a 2.1.1.A.0.6 ??.. I delete this file. Please

Wonder if it is R2BA027 or R2BA028. Maybe it is to correct the WiFi bug that some have been experiencing.

Nope, as I said, I already update that file, same base band and FW ver 026. I think it is just some small update for fixing bugs. I hope that it is a incall volume fix but it seem isn't
Vodafone 151MB update via Update Service on PC...
Not too sure what this update is all about, am still trying to figure it out, I was on 024, it still says 024...WTH
nothing showing here ........ I unbranded originally from 014 voda branded to 016 uk generic unbranded ..I'm now upto Baseband 1.1.31 and firmware R2BA026 from a couple of days agos update not sure if this is most recent but not offering anything OTA or via SEUS either !?
Ive not seen the WIFI dropout issue with mine as yet so dont know If I maby got an after that bugged release fixed version?!
Giggle..
People just calm down, and stop blowing your own mind regarding FW updates. I'll rather dicuss when our OS get updatet to 2.1 etc later this month or end of September. And i got my hands on a test version for the X10i. So you can all soon been awaiting it on OTA or thru SEUS tools.
Enjoy.

Why bother posting in the thread if its not related to the OP topic?!
@vickysud theres a thread on 2.1 already on the forum please use that for discussion or start a new thread asking FRAPSROOTET directly please!
@All who are confused... The OTA version of the builds is a patch version which downloads only the bits that need to change.. the SEUS or PCC version downloads the complete file and in my experience the SEUS version was actually a bit slicker.

Get latest .435 (multitouch update) for X10i without needing to flash the ROM

Worked in Singapore! Might work for other regions also..pls try and report
imugur said:
there is a very simple way to do it: root your phone, change in system/build.prop these 2 lines:
ro.semc.version.cust=XXXX-XXXX
ro.product.name=X10_XXXX-XXXX
change the X with 1234-8465
restart phone and run SEUS

i am the laziest guy on this forum...hence this method is the quickest..
rooting X10i is extremely easy...check the sticky.
what u need:
1. Rooted X10i
2. Root explorer app (version 2.10.1 recommended)
3. Refer to this thread.
working
I have followed imugur's instructions as given in the first post but rather than changing my UK Generic version for the Nordic one (1234-8465) I went for the Global Generic (1232-9897)
I first tried the phone's own check for updates after rebooting but it found nothing, however, I then tried PC Companion and was immediately given the new software update (with a specific mention of multitouch support being added)
Going through the process now, PC Companion estimates a total time of 30 mins
Cheers,
Mik
Keeps saying that I have the latest firmware i have .24 no multitouch, already on nordic firmware, no update through seus, pc companion or phone.... trying a repair
currently on 2.0.2.A.0.24

will this work if i am in canada?

If you got a X10a and flashed X10i firmware on it or vice versa, SEUS and PCC will not recognize your device.

hmmm thats interesting, have to look to switch it back to x10a
Thanks for the insight
And what's the point of that?
The biggest advantage of flashing is to give us a faster phone and most important dualtouch.
By doing that way you can't get either.
And more. I'm not sure about this but on every custom roms you must have 435 flashed so that dualtouch work. Not sure trough.

If you're rooted you can just change the CDA numbers back to a X10a device, then it will be recognized again.

Singapore, New Update Available.

Hi All,
Just saw on my phone X10i that some new update is available..
Is it for MT or something else?
Also can u plz confirm if I will update:
1. I cannot root after that??
2. All installed apps/games will be gonne??
What firmware do you have right now?
If it's the DT update then it won't delete any of your apps or anything. Also people have been able to root the latest firmwares using either SuperOneClick or the flash tool.
By the way, all of these questions have been answered many times already on this forum.

X10 has no multitouch -_-
There was a pinch-to-zoom update during Chinese New Year. And there hasn't been any updates after that. So I have no idea what this current update you claim is all about

just go with the .435 firmware.... i'm also from singapore and that firmware works well with singtel networks.... i assume it should work the same with M1 and starhub....
notice that the sms subsystem is quite flaky.... in a sense that it cant handle a large amount of sms... (like maybe 2000sms) and when my friend sends like 2 or 3 sms to me, the phone just hands for like 10s before being able to display the smses.... kinda very bad....

Not sure why you were downgraded to .204 though. Use flashtool to get the latest firmware.
