or use PcCompanion and s1tool for the bootloader

Sorry for posting in the wrong section
So if I use SEUS without doing anything else, will updating change it back to locked boot-loader and not rooted? How about the kernal, does SEUS change that too?

You should probably lock bootloader with the s1tools first

Before locking bootloader you need to be on stock firmware not on other roms

As far as I know, SEUS restores to defaults, stock rom and kernel, but does not lock bootloader.

Thanks for all your replies. So can someone please confirm whether I need to lock the bootloader before or after flashing with Seus. Thanks

Confirmed!!! Lock bootloader after flashing with Seus. You need to be back on Sony's stock firmware!

[Q] How one can get original ROM for X10

I have rooted my Xperia X10 from DoCoMo. I have installed Xrecovery and custom ROM. How I can restore my phone to the original software on my phone.
Thanks
If you make a backup of your stock rom then you can flash it back via x recovery. Else you might have to repair your phone via seus and then re root it

You can get original firmwares from here.
And flash it with FlashTool.
But if you're looking for original DOCOMO firmwares, you can find them in this thread.

OTA Update now available For 12.0.A.2.245

Guys the OTA update For The latest update I.e. 12.0.A.2.245 is now available in around 70mb file package.
And best part Of OTA update is that you will not loose the root access like you loose the root in the update through pc companion.
I m from india and is on. 257 update
If you have unlocked boot loader DO NOT UPDATE OVER THE AIR YOU WILL BRICK THE DEVICE.

I live in Greece and i'm still on .257... Cannot install any updates and that sucks...
i wasn't eather, not trough the pc companion at least. if you're not sim locked just download global .245 package or german one perhaps, find it in a forum, and flash it via flashtool.

hi, where i find global generic .245
Thanks
i must confess I used the German one, but pretty much any .245 would work as long as it is for your specific model, 502 or 503, and if you do not mind using english in your device. 'cause no matter what region is intended for you can chose english for the device language.
Tried OTA update but installation failed. Not sure if is due to me removing the bloatware previously

As long you have rooted your phone whether locked or unlocked bootloader, OTA fails.

Ota will fail if you have changed anything in your system folder ie removed bloat ware, deodexed etc

Try using the touch with glove mode on. It really greatly reduces the issues.

Oh ok will unlock it thanks!
Unlocking the bootloader then updating OTA will brick your device. At least that happened with my Xperia Play, it never got bricked because I never did it. But read up about it to make sure the issue has been fixed on the Z1.
Sorry was maybe I bit short on reply, if you have an unlocked bootloader, ota will not work.

I think it's not just debrand by deleting some stuff ...You should change SI number or flash ftf with different SI to provide OTA
