Hi there,
Using an unlocked Play from Rogers (Fido sim), read a few posts that update was to come July 1st in Canada... I'm not seeing one. Can someone confirm updating this way? I'm pretty sure I could update thru Pc companion but I've rooted the phone and would like to keep it this way, again read somewhere that only using OTA update would allow to keep root, is that right?
Thanks in advance

Why wait for the rogers update? When you know the next update is gonna be slow. Just flash the UK(works on your play) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116090 and you will always get the updates first and root as well
I'm on rogers and I still don't have the update yet. I tried doing the check for update. Still nothing.
If you install the software on your desktop and check for an update you will find it. Every time I plug my phone in it says there is an update but I don't want to update it yet.
The software I am talking about is the one where when you plug in the phone on the phones screen it says would you like to install software to the computer blah blah blah.
I was the one that emailed Sony E and they said July first. I think Rogers messed it up and we can only update through the PC. I’m going to use the UK if I can get it to work. They say it’s 3 steps but each of those steps are many steps. For instance it says “Add ftf firmwares files in the firmwares folder” I have no idea where the Firmwares folder is and it doesn’t say. I will do some research and do it. I have all my stuff on the SD at the moment and it said it will format. Does this mean I have to start over? Will it remove my contacts? LOL my contacts took me a long time to setup.
Flashing it to generic uk firmware is a really easy. Just backup your own contacts to gmail... I didn't know how to do it but all my contacts are on my sim card anyways.

Use something like MyPhoneExplorer Client you can back up contacts, sms messages e.t.c just back up what you want then follow the steps it easy enough.

Download the latest flashtools and unzip the flashtools to your desktop, in the folder you unziped it to there is the firmware folder. Just put the files from the ".184 UK firmware".zip into the firmware folder and then open flash tools and flash. When i did it, it didnt wipe my sd card just my phone apps e.t.c but it took 5 mins to reinstall them/re-setup after using ota to update to 2.3.3 and keep root
or see here for a quick guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10879528&postcount=3
I will back them up but Gmail puts everyone that emailed me in the list and it sucks. I email people to buy stuff but wouldn't want them in my contacts.
Thanks
I will give it a try tonight. I'm tired of waiting for Rogers.
You can grab all the rogers app off the market afterwards? The only one I kept was the my account one. You'll notice that the bootup becomes crazy fast, compared to the rogers stock.
Sent from my XPlay using XDA App.
yes you can. Search for Rogers and they all come up. My account is the first one.
I posted this in the other 2.3.3 thread. thought it was relevent here.
i hate reposted normally . but yeah ..
Just updated to 2.3.3 here in Alberta... did it through the PC companion.. took not to long. the initial boot after update seemed to take forever.. roughly 8 minutes.
After everything booted up, i restarted the phone again .. and already noticed the boot time was alot faster.. faster than 2.3.2 for sure..
I was getting the same thing where the OTA update said the phone version was current .. but the PC companion found a new version and the install was easy as pie.
Dont notice anything else differant really. other than the boot time... hopefully ill notice the battery life increase everyones talking about..
** and maybe its just me . but my predictive text in messaging seems slightly diffearnt ? i dont know how . it just does.. maybe its just me.

Hi,
I've just got this phone today, and have been reading through some posts gathering the mods I wanted for the phone (Xperia tweak, vista battery guage etc.).
Having realised that I needed to update my phone I tried using Sony's updater, which seems to be failing! So went on to investigate about downloading the rom and firmware update.
However, I am completely confused on A) how to install all of these mods I have downloaded
B) How to JUST update the firmware. I am worried if I update the ROM all my vodafone settings will dissappear, which means no internet etc. Is there anyway to just update the firmware without using sony's software?
Again, I am completely confused after reading countless threads in here. Just looking to be pointed in the right direction
many thanks,

When trying to update with SEUS it takes me about 2 or 3 tries to get it to run correctly and find the correct update.

Just connect your phone with your pc and copy cabs to your phone. Go with File Explorer or Total Commander to cabs and click, easy as cake..

Your vodafone settings will be installed through connection setup after updating/installing new ROM automatically (most of the time). So no need to worry about that.
You will loose contacts, sms, e-mail, etc, etc when flashing to a new ROM and there is nothing you can do. Except not to flash a new ROM at all. Only the stuff on your SD card will remain, phone memory is completely whiped when updated.
Just find a nice back-up program suiting your needs...
Thanks very much . Applications are installing nicely!
The update is still getting stuck in the identification bit, sometimes it doesn't even come up! Is it worthit to just update the phone manually? If so, do you just put the img on the phone, or sync it to the phone?
yeah you should think about using an custom rom...
they are faster, more beautiful and the whole X1 Xperience is better
but if u want to have warranty u have to flash back ur device to a stock rom
there are good tutorials about flashing an rom...
look at the stickys
Weird
Strangely I just connected my xperia to my Vista x64 Ultimate desktop without thinking and it updated perfect first time. I didn't do anything extra.

Before trying to update without using SEUS please read the sticky's in the Xperia ROM section of this forum, it is most definitely going to save you (and probably us here at the forum) a lot of frustration.

Thanks very much for the replies guys. Looking forward to it all !
First of all, please accept my apology for this post - I've tried my best to read up on this, and read all the threads available, but I'm still totally confused... which is why I'm asking.
I've got the Arc from Orange in the UK, so it's full of all sorts of software that I'm never going to use - in addition to blocking the ability to use WiFi tethering (which is very annoying).
So I've come here looking for help, and from what I can tell, I need to debrand the phone, back to the stock SE rom, to get rid of it all... the problem is, as I said above, I'm just really confused as to how to do it.
I'm not too interested in rooting the phone, or gaining access to the bootloader - as I don't know what they do - I just want to get rid of the orange software (and get WiFi tethering working).
Can someone point me in the right direction please?
Thank you
Here is a little guide:
1. Download FlashTool (I used the latest Beta) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
2. Download Arc ROM from: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9IRV888N
3. Open the folder you extracted FlashTool to and place the ROM (Arc_1.0_SE_StockROM_Decrypted.ftf) in the "firmware" folder.
4. Open "X10FlashTool.exe" and click the FLASH button.
5. The Arc firmware you put in the "firmware" folder should show up and be selected. Click OK.
6. Now just follow the onscreen instructions and it will do the rest for you.
Notes: Because I had never done this before I took out my SDcard in case it did something to that (I doubt it does). My battery was fully charged. It also took ages to turn on after flashing it but I think it's because I was watching it thinking I had messed something up haha. Also I actually created the firmware file from the .sin files in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=993900 but thought uploading the .ftf would make things easier.
Hope this helps.
Hi, thank you for your reply, I'll be giving that a go at lunchtime. Who was your phone branded with? And have you had any problems with it since?
I really hope I don't end up bricking my phone, because that would make me very sad
Hi, I've just finished flashing the phone (you're right, it does take a very long time for it to load up), and so far as I can tell, it's working just fine.
The best part of this whole thing is that now I'm able to share my data connection with my iPad via WiFi - so very happy about that.
Thank you for the instructions, it made it very easy to follow and understand
Sorry if someone else already asked this, but after flashing the phone will we still be able to update via SEUS?
I had the Three firmware so there wasn't really much difference apart from a load of crap games and the bootup screen.
Don't see why we would't be able to update using the SE software anymore.

Very much doubt it, as your not touching the the bootloader,
also you are installing SE firmware not custom so it should be ok,
i dont want orange bloatware, so iv done it, and its faster.
is it the .184 version that youve got now?
im considering it but im not sure t-mobile actually have any bloatware and I cant find any details of any differences between the two version :/
@diggedy
I originally had a t-mobile version, and the only difference is the Top Apps program, and the default browser homepage.
I noticed a lot of battery use by the TMOSync application (>20%!!). Returned it and upgraded via Carphone Warehouse to get an unlocked model.
Ive not seent his TMOSync application in my usage. Is it not something youve signed up for on the t-mobile website?

No, not signed up for anything. I didn't spend too long investigating, as I returned the phone to get an unlocked one.
Looks like there are other people with the same issue though T-Mobile Forum: Xperia Arc - poor battery life
Although while your Arc is un-branded your warranty is void.
However.
When you use Sony Ericsson update service you reinstall the software, in affect your phone is flashed to the original branded software. So no, as long as you re-flash your phone using SEUS if you send for repair you will be fine.

Anybody who tried debranding their phones, how much free space do you have after debranding? is the UI any faster than previous? Also is there any disadvantage of debranding? Thanks.
I had 280mb after unbranding. It seems about the same speed. Too early to comment on anything long term.
disadvantages are it may void warranty... but this isnt confirmed.
I have some questions.
- Is the rom is multilanguage?
- Is it possible to return to a branded rom, for a sav? One person said it was possible with SEUS, can anyone confirm?
- Is it still possible to get the updates after debranding?
Hey there, trying to flash but it doesnt recognize my phone any suggestions?
What drivers do i use?
Never mind, got it... installed the SEUS witch had the drivers includet...
Can someone help me?
I need to brand my arc because of changeing with another arc.
I must send it back to my shop.
I need a Firmware with TMobile branding (germany)
I had debranded my arc with the tutorial in the forum. (i flashed global customized .181)
greetings
I don't know why people are having soooo much trouble with this so im just going to post this..
this is what I did to get the 1.8.3 update.
1) Go download the Motorola Software Updater from here.
2) Download the updater and then install it. Make sure that you have your Motorola Driver updated.
3) Run the updater, plug in your phone (Debugging has to be on). Wait till the updater recognizes your Atrix.
4) The updater will scan your device and see what firmware you have installed. Once it identifies that you have your Atrix connected and you are updated to 1.5.7 it will start to scan for updates (This can take a while, so let it do its thing).
5) Once it finds an update, it will wait till you click next.
6) After that it will download and install the update to your phone, once it is completed your phone will reboot. (Again, the updating/installing can take a while)
THATS IT!
Rooting time w/ GingerBreak.
Go here to view the full guide on how to do it. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS!!!!
If I can do it, anyone can.

About how long does it take to recognize the phone??

It would be nice if you could update like this but they have pulled it off there site since its not goin OTA yet. So now were having to revert back to flashing 1.8.3 over 1.5.7 va RSD. then do the whole root and side load after that

To my understanding it took alot of peoples phones a while. From what i heard you can Flash 1.5.7 then flash 1.8.3 on top of that and root and enable side loading before the phone tools would start the update

There should be a %. But it doesn't say how long and I didn't keep track. I just started it and left. Came back and it said it found an update then i just installed it.

-Rooted (required for Screen Grabber to work)

I Flash a 1.8.3 SBF file.
But can't display a MP4 file which can play on Ver 1.5.7.
Can you play it with Gallery (with 1.8.3 default video player.)??
People have told you several times now that this method no longer works, I tried it exactly as you said several times over the past few days and just for good measure I tried again right before I posted this.
I understand that it worked for you a couple days ago but things changed and I assure you it does NOT work anymore.
Looks like the OTA availability is widening. I've been manually checking for updates daily for the last week or so. This morning it found the update and installed without issue. Northern VA area.
i just used the 1.8.3 sbf with RSD lite 5.31
No update on moto for me and no OTA
finally got it working, thanks!
I got the update notice as soon as I registered the product (which I hadn't done until today after owning since April 20th). Make sure that you've registered your phone on motorola.com
I just got the update right now over WIFI > System Update. Looks like its downloading now!!!
dont forget to backup your internal sd card since gingerbreak will format it.
Mine just popped

Ya, that was my experience too. I did everything to the letter, and no update. What I think happened is moto/att is pushing out the update in batches, and you (chubby) happened to be one of the lucky first in the roll out, and that's why it worked for you.
I could be wrong, but that would definitely explain why everyone but you was having so much trubbs.
BTW, I just checked again a few minutes ago and it finally found the update.

I get the same thing with the wife's S4. I downloaded the update 3 times now in the last month. Each time it shows installed but when verifying the OS and number its the same. So, got on chat with an ATT tech. Seems there is another "hold" on the update, they contacted Samsung tech and the deal is this according to Samsung.
The update comes from Google as an Android update,its up to the carriers to approve the update. Att says it comes from Samsung and its there responsibility to do the update. So where does this go? The usual pass the buck so and so says this. ATT says its Samsung, Samsung says its Google, Google says its ATT. As for the update. Its there but it don't install because ATT stops it with another hold on it.

You can't load something that isn't there. I have yet to find an OTA update to load but keep looking. Att says it will put it out when it gets ready. Only other option you have is to root and go custom. Mine is rooted with TWRP recovery, but as of yet I don't have a custom rom. It's my wife's phone and she isn't into the techy things as I am so I have let it go and when it happens it happens on the GS4. The HTC one I have is all dolled up with unlocked bootloader, S-Off , TWRP, and converted to a GPE model then running a custom rom.

I didn't know there was a download of the OTA anywhere. I have been googleing and looking on the XDA for it for a while and come up empty handed in all searches. Now my question , rather than go thru the ADB stuff would it be possible to just copy the file to a folder such as roms , downloads etc. on the internal SD then use TWRP (if installed) to flash the zip ?

Some people have flashed it from stock recovery from their external sd card, but this does do a full wipe I believe, where the ADB sideload doesn't wipe. Haven't heard of anyone flashing it thru TWRP, you may want to find a version without the bootloaders so that you don't lose the rom flashing ability. I'd imagine that your on MDL?

You'll either have to Odin back to stock and do the update, or research the error codes and see what you can do from there.

Samsung and rooting is not one of my favorite phones. This is my wife's phone but I rooted it a long time ago , just never did any thing with it so I know very little about it. The sideload failed with no error codes, it wont install from anywhere. From what I am reading any way, I just maybe should leave it alone till ATT gets it together if they do and comes down with a good download. Even the tech on chat yesterday said they pulled the download because of issues but failed to know it was still up for a download.
I had to manually check, but it's here on my phone .
For some reason the screenshot wouldn't upload, so here it is on imgur.

Yep. Here in the Seattle area, the Verizon Android 10 update is here for the Moto Z4. Update went without a hitch...phone runs well and smoothly.
Anyone know how to get rid of this? It just started after the updated lol.
I think they put that there to remind us that once Android 11 is released, we'll be stuck on Android 10.

It's there because developer tools are enabled, if you turn them off that message disappears.
I had the update last week, but was waiting for it to come up on Software update center since I have retail version, but now update is gone and it hasn't been released on the update center.
Could someone pull the update and post it here for the rest of us to manually update??
There is a new one today, it said critical, and applied itself, no option to delay it, it's called Update 5+.
I agree we really need the system image for this update. My phone will not update using the update system option, it only tells me it's already up to date. I tried using the tool from Verizon, same thing, up to date. I called verizon, after the second tech they want to send a new phone. But I don't really want a new phone. Also they had me do a factory reset just to be sure. I had a lot of apps disabled, and had other modifications through adb. Turns out those weren't the issue.
Pretty Please with Sugar on Top.
I'm sure all it would take is for someone to use the Verizon update tool or whatever it's called and select reinstall but keep my days then it'll download and extract. You just have to grab it once it starts extracting the zip and copy it somewhere so that when it finishs extracting it doesn't get removed. The app deletes the system image/zip when it finishes extracting. You could also unplug your phone when it starts extracting and it would touch your device.
Edit...... Then upload it anywhere.
This is an excellent idea, however it'll only work for people already on 10. Myself and others cannot update neither OTA or using the update tool. Using this aforementioned method of extraction would be absolutely fabulous, and I myself would buy some beers for anyone that would pull the update whatever way they can and upload???
Just manually checked and the update was there. I didn't think of it but there used to be an app that a Dev put out for Moto phones that would copy the update. Probably to old to work anymore though.
I did the same thing a couple days ago.
It's finally in the repository

%#*%^$^%$#$(&!! I've been scouring the web all evening trying to figure out why my bluetooth stopped functioning recently...all worked fine until this new update that came across on my phone yesterday. I haven't been able to find any info on this, I was starting to think I was the only one having issues after that update. Is there a fix for this?
