Singapore, New Update Available. - XPERIA X10 General

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....

now going for MT !!

Z4 Root doesn't work anymore for a.0.24 and follows Try flashtool 0.2.6 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746 It's very easy and no danger. I had the same problem!

Way to ignore my post (first response in your thread) which answers all your questions......
Not sure why you were downgraded to .204 though. Use flashtool to get the latest firmware.

Update no longer current
Because of the new SEUS Update Service program update, the link above is no longer current. The current version is 2.10.5.11, while that link still believes the current version is 2.10.4.22. I tried installing version 2.10.4.22 but it updates to 2.10.5.11.
I have an X10a rebranded to X10i. Now i'm trying to go back to X10a and I cant due to the program update.
Can someone provide other methods of rebranding? I have tried the PC Companion 2.0 and no luck going back to X10a.
Bump. Anyone can create the new files for re-branding given the new "com.sonyericsson.cs.usbflashnative_2.10.5.11.jar"?
What about X10 Mini

Try here m8: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=683793
the build.prop contains all the version information.
i am not sure, but if SE refers to build.prop on the phone to determine if update is available, then people can swap their build.prop with the one that they want to brand to and do a repair via seus..
just a thought though...

[Q] Hello All Need your help

Hi All,
I have a X10a from Rogers and i Rooted it to R2BA024 using the rooting steps in this forum. After that I connected to PC companion and SEUS both are saying that my phone is up to date. Below are my queries,
1. After I rooted my Phone Am I not eligible for updates?(Say for future 2.1)
2. Is there any generic unrooted firmware for X10a available?
3. Can I unroot the phone again back to Rogers firmware.
Request one and all in this forum to answer these queries. Sorry if it had been posted in some other thread. Looking forward for your update. Thanks in Advance.

Hi Vikram,
In future please search the forums before you post again
1. If you rooted it to an X10a version of R2BA024 then it should be fine
2. Yes there are many... again, search the forum
3. Yes, there is a Rogers firmware available too if you want to go back (That's what I'm going to do once Rogers releases its branded 2.1)

I have rooted to X10a verison of R2BA024 as I have x10a using the 3 steps process posted in this forum. So am I not eligible for future updates??
If I falsh my X10 with Generic firmware will I be able to update to 2.1 or i need to go back again to Rogers. Sorry if my thread has annoyed people in this forum. Thanks in Advance.

Sorry buddy, typo
I meant you should have flashed it to X10a, which you did. So from what I've heard that should enable you to get updates, even if you're rooted.

THe problem is currently I have R2BA024 FW but i see that the latest is R2BA026. When i connect through SEUS and PC companion both r saying that I have latest software. When I clicked Repair i get an error saying that unable to download files. So was bit concerned. Do you have any info on why this could happen. Thanks in advance.
Just what I asked in the other forum. I am currantly at R2BA026, and my Rogers X10a reads X10i (Even if I followed each and every step correctly). Is there something wrong with X10i-X10a step? and I am not alone, there were many people reporting same thing.
I am very happy with R2BA026 but would flash with original Rogers FW if R2BA026 can't read my phone as X10a.
Please help!

I'm pretty sure 024 is stock Rogers. I used the flash tool to get to 026.
Edit. By stock Rogers I mean its the last update in our region.

Dont update if SEUS show you NEW update for X10i because....

Did you install the DT update? If so, you will be prompted that an update is available. If you do it, it will install the same ROM but you will lose ROOT and DT.
If you load back the original kernel.sin file from the .024 Global NAM firmware and run SEUS again, it will tell you have the latest software.
So dont update now by SEUS
flash kernal.sin is better because SEUS remove root access
There arent any update for mine :S
Can't confirm.
No update yet.
From Chile, no update available using generic firmware. 024

In Italy is not aviable
Wasn't available in Uruguay through PCC 2 hours ago before i took it to the service. Will have it back on Monday, hope the update is available and rooted by then.
Does this update change anything besides adding MT feature and removing JIT and root? Because I already implemented this onto .024 with Bin4rY's method.
So, anything new besides MT? I don't think SE released a changelog, right? They never do...

hrmmz i did the flash update for dt or mt but i do not see a difference, i download multitouch tester app and i do touch twice and get a 1 and 2 and i can pinch spread etc.. so im assuming it works, on home screen i can pinch in and all three home screens will appear as smaller windows kinda like the browser pages do. So is this the dual touch we expect?? I notice no difference in browsers.
I just checked SEUS running CDA 1234-4820 X10a 2.0.2.A.0.24 and there IS and update. I did not update until someone can confirm that we can root the new update?
I can NOT confirm if this for DT or not.

More than that, it's an improved camera application. Autofocus on both still and HD as well as Face Recognition in the movie mode.
I'm going to a wedding in a few weeks, face detection in movie mode would be interesting to have.... I've downloaded the tft, I'm considering it, since it's definatly rootable....
I just have to remember to restore my TiBackup as USER Apps and Sysdata....
Is the multi touch just dual touch or have they actually incorporated more than two fingers?
And can someone upload the new camera and multi touch apps.
thanks.
Wait, so the att version has more features? And is it as smooth as 2.1.B.01 or laggy?

You need to restart your phone after rooting if I remember correctly and install busybox from market. You can enable Unknown sources from SuperOneClick.
I just flashed the 2.1.65 BB from the AT&T FW. I used it for like 30 mins and did not notice anything different. I went back to the 2.1.54 FW of the X10a generic kit. My concern was that after you flash the 2.1.65 BB from the AT&T FW, in the hidden menu, under software version, the phone is identified as an ATT -user and NOT GENERIC - user. This may be a problem when 2.3 is released since it will only be available for generic kits. Anyway, I am back on 2.1.54 BB from the .435 generic kit.
Although I appreciate AT&T finally releasing their build of 2.1 for the X10A, I'll stick with the Sony Ericsson generic world 2.1 release instead.
For those going with AT&T's version, remember that you'll end up getting:
AT&T bloatware (removable after rooting)
Unknown Sources in Settings > Applications removed (can be enabled after rooting - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9588447&postcount=3 )
Data locked to '3G' (you'd lose the 'H' data connection, where available)
AT&T branding (you'd never get access to Sony Ericsson's upcoming Android 2.3 update for the X10)
Is the new AT&T 2.1 build that much better than the generic one? Face recognition in video recording mode...is that really a handy feature? Is it better on the battery? Is the touch screen smoother? Reception better? We need more AT&T X10 users to chime in.
