Hey all, I did a search and couldn't find an answer. SE PC Companion is prompting me to update it to version 2.00.142. Should I? Could it block me getting root access later?
Thanks in advance
Nobody can give you that answer, until somebody has rooted that......
If PC Companion is prompting you to update to some version, then it is PC Companion softwrae and not the Phone's Android System....
So go ahead and update it...
I updated the PC Companion and it has no changes.
Plugged phone in and no firmware update.
Still has same UI and sub-windows as older version.

PCC or SEUS can try to update your phone.
Most of the regions in the wold have no update and Sony has left out them in the dark.
at first I got my phone from Dubai and I even didnt had market in my X10.
but I debranded by phone and installed UK version and now I updated it to latest RIFB001 with Kernal version of 2.6.29 and Baseband of 1.0.21

I no longer have dubai version, pls read my previous post, on the first debarnd I change it to UK version.
and from there I flash it to X10i Generic NCB (R1FA016) after that simply plug it to the PC companion and it will tell you there is an update available, simple do it. you will be on updated to R1FB001 by SE.

From what I gather, ota updating is an update without connecting to a PC. I'm pretty sure the ota available on jerps thread is for Japanese x10s. I haven't tried that one yet as I'm satisfied so far with the r1fb001.
Hope this helps: )

Just now i go to one of the SingTel roadshow, and they offer me firmware upgrade to Xperia X10, but since mine i rooted, i declined. I was thinking, i go back home, rebrand the phone again with SingTel firmware, then tomorrow i go back again.
But then i found this blog. Currently downloading the update, with very slow connection, maybe because many people using the internet TV to watch world cup final. hehe.
follow up will come after i done.
Hi.
The blog post is from two days ago, and doesn't seem to be anyone else mentioning it, so I'll wait and see.
Hope it is the 2.1 update but I somehow doubt it as no one else has mentioned this anywhere. This would be big if it was real so I'll wait for your follow up. Post pictures aswell
Edit: After looking at the blog correctly (lol) this is just the latest update for the Update Service. And if this is for the 23 version I still wouldnt download it...extremely minor update to 20 and less stable.
LOL! this isn't android 2.1 what a retarded blog. Its a download for the sony ericsson update service which happens to be version 2.10.7.15 so they thought its was android 2.1. and since when are ROMS 37MB? HA

In case you didnt notice, the download is simply the Sony Ericsson Update Service. This does not mean that it will update your phone to the firmware based on Android 2.1. Most probably you will just get the latest firmware i.e R2BA023. This release is most certainly not based on Android 2.1.

I thought as much, especially with the size too.
i can cross my finger only men. hehe. i need to rebrand anyway, and see what kind of update they have for SingTel Xperia X10. And what's more, the update service version IS NEW. worth to try. hahaha..
see the funny reaction ?? That was me lol...
Just logged into Update Service and my phone downloaded something, it wasn't 2.1, and it still has build r2ba020. Sony installed something but don't know what. could be trying to plug the root holes?

actually i cant cross ur fingers, the new version of seus prevents people from debranding, all those who are debranded cannot revert back to stock software, thus warentee voided, like myn this new seus just counter acts a few of our hacks
can ppl PLEASE stop posting about 2.1 or multitouch, im begginning to think they should be on a banned topics list, your all turning into apple "must have latest shiny thingy"

Hey Chetan, care tell everyone exactly how to do that using flash tool and omnius? I mean don't you need to get the decrypted files (*.sin etc) in order to be able to flash them with these tools.
The new updated SEUS can be used to obtain them but its clearly a long drawn complicated process.
After trying to rebrand my Xperia X10 back to SingTel for whole 2 x 45 of world cup final, then SEUS updates, finally updated to.... R2BA020 SingTel... with Creatouch preinstalled.
Expectation too high.. beuuuh.. well i was hoping for something because we know that SEUS updates is brand specific, and so far i never see any decrypted rom updates for SingTel brand or anything even related. so just may be. July is Q3 after all. hehe.
no 2.1 available yet...
thread closed
google translater mode [on]
looking in some places not found anything talking about it ... and I have a question:
I'm using 2.2 (Froyo) works "normally", when Sony release the official 2.3 it will update automatically, or should I do any procedure?
2.3 will come late Juni begin July. You will have to update using Pc Companion or Sony Ericsson Update Service.
okey,
normal update.
tks
if i am currently using a modified ROM (unofficial) will i still be able to update using PC Companion? If i have rooted my phone and currently installed busybox and xrecovery, will i still be able to boot to xrecovery if i upgraded back to official rom 2.3 (just in case it will be releases)? or do i have to reinstall both to make it work again?

You can use SEUS to update your phone on Android 2.2.1 or 2.3.3. To use SEUS you only need to put your phone in ''flash mode''.
When you upgrade to 2.3.3 everything will be lost. So make sure you make a backup. When you're upgraded to official 2.3.3, you will also lose xRecovery + root. You will have to wait till any developer gets a working rooting method and confirms that xRecovery is working on 2.3.3.
So, just sit back, relax and wait till the official release of this firmware comes! It will not take long anymore, from tommorow just almost 3 to a bit over 4 months left till the official release end Juny begin July.
or the leaked version some time this q
ie today

r u sure that X10 will receive 2.3? please provide proof. Also why would SE relase 2.3 for X10 whereas the Xperia ARC comes out with 2.3? doesnt make business sence.
There is proof on the SE product blog.
Read it yourself

We thought it wouldn't happen, but it happened.
It's OFFICIAL from the SE product blog, why don't you check it before posting such pessimistic comments?
I was with the SE UK senior team last week in London and they have also said that they're trying to get the UK carriers to push this (2.3) out too.. so it may end up going beyond the "Unbranded" market (plus those of us here who know how to flash an unofficial update!)... TBC

If a company announces something its NEVER final. They just told us that they are working ON IT. Pff, do you go to school mate?
Does any error/problem appear when rooted SE x10 update using Sony Ericsson PC Companion 2.0?
No! No effect at all...
Which Stock Rom/Baseband am I supposed to install to get normal updates in my country? (Italy)
Do I need to re-root after update? eg: 2.1 to 2.3

Install SEUS and just plug your phone in to install the firmware that the software gives you.
Normally the firmware you're given is location dependent.
of course u need to root ur phone again
long time waiting for stock SE 2.3
Yes it does, our phone is made by Apple. They choose what you can do and what you can't do.
Our x10 will always be recognized by PC Companion/SEUS unless we change our bootloader. But that's not possible yet!
Thank you
According to unknown13x, YES! They are working on only offering updates to unrooted phones.
He told us to make sure you are NOT rooted for the official 2.3.3 Gingerbread update via SEUS or PC Companion.

I can smell sarcasm.
It shouldn't make a difference if they can tell or not, as they've previously stated that the phone will be wiped when you update to 2.3.
If in the unlikely event that rooting does prevent updating, you just need to flash the world generic 2.1 update via flashtool before you hook up to SEUS. One more step and an extra 20 minutes isn't that big a deal.
Regardless of whether you have to flash back to stock 2.1 or not, at the end of it, you'll end up with a non-rooted clean install of 2.3.
hi. i just got this from my centrals (Sonyericsson service point).
4.0.2+ live for ARC via EMMA. sonyericsson official updater.
do not know if this is possible via Update Service.
good luck
Can you upload a system dump? if you have it on you Arc?
Μάριε.. γιατί μας αναστατώνεις??
Can you give us some more clues??
i do not own an ARC guys. and do not have any right now to service. i just got the news for me via our online training.
Thanx for the info Marios.
I hope it will roll out soon! ;-)
I can check EMMA for the Arc S and Neo, I'll get back to you guys.
damn nice news !
keep us updated ambroos =)
Nothing on EMMA for LT18i Customized Belgium, nothing for MT15i Customized Netherlands either. I can't check all available services at home without the dongle... I'll see if I can find out more tomorrow, but I doubt it'd be anything new, aside bugfixes.
Sony Ericsson has said before that there will be no more Android updates before ICS.
Nothing on PTCRB either... (http://www.ptcrb.com/vendor/complete/view_complete_request_guest.cfm?modelid=18648)
Sony Ericsson can't release new global firmware without getting it certified at PTCRB. As long as nothing new shows up there we won't see anything new either.
What do you mean by this? Android version or build number?
If it is the build, then its not that new. 4.0.2+ build is just gingerbread

Wasn't some time ago discussed that "D" stand for Dev build?
Probably nothing to be excited about.
A buids are consumer builds, B/C/D builds are either (heavily) branded or developer builds. Not worth using since they only get very irregular updates.
For now there is no newer official build than 4.0.2.A.0.62.
