Why not update via OTA for X arc?

I think there is OTA update for Arc.
But maybe this depends on place (CDA).
And maybe you must be update from .181 (when my NEO was .145 and check update on phone - before reflash fw .181 about few hours - it asked me update via PCC)

Confirmed:
- My friend's NEO has just updated from .145 -> .368 via OTA (76.6Mb)
with the same CDA 1247-0875
(waiting for root info ...)

Not for UK Generic there isn't.

my question is that
when will there be -finally- any OTA update for countries where still it's not available?
in close future? or maybe not at all?
after each restart, my phone date and time goes back to 1.1.1980
I'm really frustrated! wanna throw this -****ty full of bug- phone right in the garbage!!!!
i hope such funny bugs be fixed soon!
i flash my phone to LT15i_3.0.A.2.181_Generic_World.ftf and then updated to 2.3.3 build 145 and it's really a mess!

I don't know which on you're using, but I just checked for updates on UK Generic .184 and Global Generic .181, and both OTA updates are still for .145 and not .368. (Going by the download size which is ~40MB)

Lol all I get ota is 'could not connect to server'.

PC Companion update

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

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: )

Surely it not. It've just released. Dev will need time in order to root it.
Plz wait.
Any changes you notice...
its alot slicker than 020 for sure
It is said that the 026 has better speed in Mediascape and Timescape, but i've tried yet, cuz my company wifi is down, haiz.
There is no big change in this new FW as I notice, the baseband is 31 now
wifi radio is better tho aswell
here in Ireland ive got update to 026 as well and no root after update.
Think ill stick with Rooted 024 for now
is the update ota?
How did you guys update if your phone was rooted? I know it will lose the root, but how did you update in the first place?
Thats strange, I'm on rooted 024 on O2 here in the UK, if I do an OTA check, it says im on the latest firwamre, did yuo guys update using SEUS?

Flash back to a Generic firmware, using Omnius or whatever. Then use SEUS

Rooted fone will be able going back to original one by redo the step1 (back to 016 FW) after that, OTA or SEUS is depend on your choice
Im on R2BA020 from the southwest of the uk and both OTA and SEUS arent showing an update yet
I'm not rooted and using FW016 and SEUS says my phone is up to date. Am u doing something wrong?

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

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.

X10i and Official .435 distribution

As above can we trace its roll out?
UK Generic here with O2 carrier - no update
still on 504

Just updated - Root - xRecovery & Jit V2 OK
well i'm using the hong kong version of X10i and got a better treatment: loaded now with a .024 firmware.
the problem with my SEUS is that it keeps on telling me that a new update is available while it still flashes in the .024 firmware
is it because i've done too much modding in the phone?
i've got JIT, root and the FX10 custom theme installed

Most probably because you flashed the dual-touch update onto your phone.
damn it,,
guess SEUS doesn't like us customizing our phones with 'future' features lol
It hit Saudi Arbian kits the day before yesterday.
You can get it from my signature.
well i would like to use SEUS to update my phone, as i feel safer doing it =)
(also because i want the chinese rom for obvious reasons, not because my english is not good enough to understand the menus=P)
although i would lose all my root, JIT stuff, I can always use flashtool--->xRecovery to help me customize my phone back

All languages is included in all firmwares. So you won't lose your language. As for SEUS and FlashTool they work equally simple in my opinion.

i understand both methods are just a matter of following the algorithm that we're given
but my belief is that if i'm doing something OEM, then i'm better off doing it using the original OEM software (well in that case i would use the flashtool to mod my phone. not saying that it's not a gd piece of software and in fact, it is really awesome. but i just don't feel safe enough to flash roms into the machine)
I tried update my phone with PC Companion, didn't get the .435, do some reading here and succefully updated.

it rolled out 9th of August... I didn't update though... since mines a rooted 2.3.3 with locked bootloader... but yeah it said it was available when you do SEUS and that it is available via PC update...

Build number is 3.0.1.A.0.145. I dont know if this is singapore or global since this is my 1st android phone.
I dont think it matters where the PCC update is available since we can all download the .ftf file from here to upgrade. The most important information is which regional firmwares have OTA update since that is what we need to keep root. On world generic .145, OTA was available but because I had modded system files (themes), I could not proceed with the upgrade. I'm downgrading back and restarting the process.
