network disconnects after update - XPERIA X8 General

I've updated my phone from 1.6 to 2.1 without rooting.
After the update, it would radomly disconnect from network and asks for pin. Meaning any calls wouldn't be received at that time.
Any suggestions?

Any one can chime in?
Should I redo the installation? I didn't via SE update software.

Try to update with SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service) that can be found on http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/sup...s/detailed/updateservice/xperiax8?cc=gb&lc=en

That's what I did in the first place. It was Android 1.6, now 2.1 but I get "network disconnected". Didn't happen before the update.
Any ideas?

I'm really having a big issue with this and it's annoying. Should I just root it and install a custom rom? Would that solve the problem?
I have experience with rooting and custom roms as I have a Nexus One rooted and customized to death!!

[Q] Possible Update -> Rogers

Hey there, I'm running R2BA026 - which I had updated to by debranding my x10a from Rogers Wireless (Canada). Upon updating, it had changed from x10a to x10i and there was warning in the instructions that doing so would result in PC Companion/SEUS not being able to update. I was fine with this as I could always revert when a major update was released. That brings me to a message I had received tonight while playing with files while connected to the USB. SEUS notified me that there was an update available for my phones software...but I can't update because... x10i, not x10a (although I have tried, it says it is unable to update). Now to my knowledge, I do have the latest firmware. So I'm wondering if anyone else on the Rogers network, or any where else for that matter, has gotten this notification? It could be some thing interesting but I don't want to revert to branded firmware just for some none sense update. :s
I'm on the Telus network..
Therefore.. I have to depend on Rogers to get the firmware though.. haha..
So I wouldn't get any notifications, but it'd be interesting to see if anyone got some.
I would definitely debrand myself and go back to Rogers to get it..or not cause I'll lose my root ):
I ran the updater this morning and nothing for me on Rogers

Checked with CSL CS, and they said SE will launch an update to fix the NextG compatibility issue. Not sure if the latest 2.3.3 update includes the fix

Updating to V2.1 on a locked phone

I am trying to unlock my x10a locked to ATT, I purchased the unlocking code but it seems that mi unlocking code cannot be found on the unlocking server.
They offered me the unlocking software which requires to be running android 2.1.
So the deal is that I don’t know what is the version that the cel is running, I will think is not 2.1, but I don’t know how to tell, so how can I update the cel to android 2.1 on a locked phone.
BTW I don’t have any ATT sim
PLS help!!!
flashtool will probably still work!

Does your lockscreen have and arc you have to swipe or a straight line at the bottom to unlock (like iPhone)?
If you have the arc swipe to leave lockscreen then you're on 1.6.
If you got the straight swipe line, then your on 2.1.
You can check your Android version by going to:
Settings>About Phone
And check what it says in the Firmware version field.
Yes I have the Arc so I'm on 1.6
I can't go to setting I can only do an emergency call.

Ahh yea the AT&T restrictions. Forgot about those, on generic firmwares you can boot up without a SIM in the phone.
Well you just have to flash a generic X10a firmware with FlashTool then.
To be safe get the X10a (2.0.A.0.504) firmware.
Not confirmed this myself, but I think going from 1.6 to 2.1 requires you initially flash 2.0.A.0.504 before any other 2.1 firmware (But I'm really not certain about this, so this is just a safety precaution on my part).
This can all be found in the FlashTool thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
Then just flash that and then you'll be ready for your cable unlock.

Yea there is a lot, but if you checked my link you would see there is only 3 generic firmwares for each device (X10i & X10a) in the link.

Why flash old 2.0.A.0.504 firmware without dualtouch?
Here's a step by step guide for AT&T X10a users to update to the most recent global generic 2.1.A.0.435 firmware, which has dualtouch and will be certain to get the official 2.3.3 Gingerbread update directly from SE when available.

Told him to flash that because I remember someone long ago said that going from 1.6 to the latest 2.1 could cause problems. But was not certain on that so better safe than sorry. And either way he will be able to get 2.3 on 2.0.A.0.504 just aswell as on 2.1.A.0.435. This was just so he could get the device unlocked in the safest possible way I could recommend. He can always just connect the X10 to SEUS after he has unlocked, and then it will update him to the latest 2.1.A.0.435

On x10unlocked.com it says that I shouldn't have a custom firmware installed.
That's the software the company provided me with.
Please advice
Am i missing something here, but wont pc companion or seus put everyone on the latest official 2.1 version from se with no problems
Then he can unlock easy with flashtool.
Edit
So, download seus or pc companion from se website, instal and follow the instructions. You don't even have to be able to turn the phone on for it to work

Not any kit. If you want the bloatware branded ATT 2.1 firmware that limits data speeds and blocks apps from unknown sources. Also, most branded kits will not be getting the Gingerbread update.
What i seem to think his problem is is that he cant unlock on SETool because he is on 1.6 and that only works with stock 2.1
So he needs 2.1 on his phone which he is struggling with.
So, use official means to upgrade to the official 2.1, unlock using SETool, then use flashtool to root, install recovery and flash any firmware or custom rom he wants.
Why the worry about dual touch drivers etc etc.....once its rooted you can get rid of bloatware, easily flash generic firmware and receive 2.3 update....
I am confused as to why this poses a problem.

Enabling apps from unknown sources isn't as easy as rooting with ATT. Also, data is throttled down to 3G.
You even suggest flashing generic after updating via SEUS or PCC. Why add all these extra steps? This is xda. You can accomplish everything with global generic 2.1.A.0.435 firmware in about 5 minutes with the flash tool.
Well What I did was use Sony Ericsson Update Service, when I connected the phone it told me that there is a newer version so it updated it to firmware version 2.1-update1. So I was able to unlock the phone using multi unlock. Now to get the latest firmware which I understood it is 2.1.A.0.435 with Flash Tool.
Can I go straight from 2.1-update1 to 2.1.A.0.435?
And a last question a generic firmware means that I won’t have all those useless ATT apps on my phone?
Thanks for the help

Yea a generic firmware is one without any branded apps, special setup or limited features.
The latest generic was released for the German generic kits an has build version 2.1.B.0.1. You can find it in my signature.
What do you mean by German generic kits?
I apologize to be a pain but I just getting in the android world.

All Sony Ericsson devices is sold in different regions and has a region specific code. That code determines if your region is eligible for an update (Sony Ericsson rolls out their updates in regions).
Some regions gets updates that others don't get, that's the case with the 2.1.B.0.1, this firmware was only released to the German "kits".
Not a pain at all, we all have to start somewhere
Ok then I will go to 2.1.B.0.1, hopefully I won’t screw up my phone since this is the first time doing this

http://www.multiupload.com/7XOEGED282
I reuploaded to a better site
Been using this for a little over 12 hours and despite the new enhancements and slightly faster running speed, I've had nothing but problems with:
- Touchscreen response is all over the place
- Had to uninstall Swype as touchscreen was making things up as it went
- Connectivity with wifi is patchy, connectivity with mobile data is questionable at best
- Sync issues related to connectivity
- Battery drain is significantly higher.
Is this an official Neo FW or something that's been compiled from the Arc release? If so, might be best to wait until the Neo FW is released properly. The update works beautifully on the Arc, but on the Neo (I have both handsets) I'm flashing back to rooted 2.3.2 and applying 2.3.3 OTA to await the new OTA build.
I recommend flashing via Wotanclient. Then unlock bootloader.
Thanks to Bi4ary, rooting newest Xperia firmware(4.0.A...) is very simple and safe.
First you need RootXperia.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1130639 Put it on your SDcard.
Then fastboot recoveryNeo.img from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183465
In recovery install RootXperia.zip
Now if you want to relock bootloader, then get this ftf, made by Blagus from

This worked for me 100% as posted in the other thread. No issues here. Just a faster phone,
No issues whatsoever with the hk-firmware. The only thing i've noticed is that the camera sound can not be disabled (not even in third party apps), but I suppose thats only because of the rules and laws in HK that does not allow silent cameraphones. It's however easily fixed when rooted by switching the sound files in the systems media folder.
Hello,
I have a MT15a, would that work on it or is it ONLY for MT15i?
Thanks!

It means that person had a problem with their touchscreen. It is not related to the update, it was just an individual error.
You can update without any problems using PC Companion or Sony Ericsson Update Service (recommended).

I got notifications, and updates from sony ?

Hello all developers, I have question, I worked the root on 4.4.2, and then returned with the latest 4.4.4, using Flash tool, add D6503_23.0.1.A.0.167_Vodafone DE. Will I receive notification of updates from Sony? When come Lolipop i got notification in Sony update center?
Thanks!
Yes but if your system is modified it will fail verifacation when you try updating
If you only have root on a stock rom and want to update to Lollipop later you just have to unroot then If u have a custom rom never do ota updates for android,do only sony app updates like walkman,gallery etc.
Thank developers . I checked, and my software is not root, when I go to update sony center, and got "Your device is up to date!" That is okay? I only tried to root I managed 4.4.2. but I decided to go back to 4.4.4, I did it over the flash tool. I should now get updates from Sony. If not root, mobile need give updates and notification from sony, i think... ? ...
