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

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.
More details.

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: )

SW Update on Vodafone

Woke up this morning to find a notification saying that an update is available, however unlike 024 that I could do OTA this one says I need to connect to a PC. Is this 026 or something else??

build number R2BA024.... no change? it acted as if it was flashing but upon restart, all i got different was a notification that Vodaphone 360 has an update, which i declined... lol
edit: and now i have an application in my draw called 360 Updates i opened it and it takes me to an install screen for vodafone 360.
how dissapointing!

Think I might not bother if thats what it is. Nice one.

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

Nope, as I said, I already update that file, same base band and FW ver 026. I think it is just some small update for fixing bugs. I hope that it is a incall volume fix but it seem isn't

Vodafone 151MB update via Update Service on PC...
Not too sure what this update is all about, am still trying to figure it out, I was on 024, it still says 024...WTH

nothing showing here ........ I unbranded originally from 014 voda branded to 016 uk generic unbranded ..I'm now upto Baseband 1.1.31 and firmware R2BA026 from a couple of days agos update not sure if this is most recent but not offering anything OTA or via SEUS either !?
Ive not seen the WIFI dropout issue with mine as yet so dont know If I maby got an after that bugged release fixed version?!

Giggle..
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.

@FRAPSROOTET

@FRAPSROOTET
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.

Dont update if SEUS show you NEW update for X10i because....

Did you install the DT update? If so, you will be prompted that an update is available. If you do it, it will install the same ROM but you will lose ROOT and DT.
If you load back the original kernel.sin file from the .024 Global NAM firmware and run SEUS again, it will tell you have the latest software.
So dont update now by SEUS

flash kernal.sin is better because SEUS remove root access

There arent any update for mine :S

Can't confirm.
No update yet.

From Chile, no update available using generic firmware. 024

In Italy is not aviable

Wasn't available in Uruguay through PCC 2 hours ago before i took it to the service. Will have it back on Monday, hope the update is available and rooted by then.

Does this update change anything besides adding MT feature and removing JIT and root? Because I already implemented this onto .024 with Bin4rY's method.
So, anything new besides MT? I don't think SE released a changelog, right? They never do...

Dualtouch in browser and google maps, isn't that enough for you??

I'm curious as to why SE even produced a X10a.
AT&T X10 hasn't even received a 2.1 update yet while the rest of the globe is on their third.

Well safe bet is that this update also brings DT support for mediascape, browser, and all phone generally.

in-call volume any better?

hrmmz i did the flash update for dt or mt but i do not see a difference, i download multitouch tester app and i do touch twice and get a 1 and 2 and i can pinch spread etc.. so im assuming it works, on home screen i can pinch in and all three home screens will appear as smaller windows kinda like the browser pages do. So is this the dual touch we expect?? I notice no difference in browsers.

I just checked SEUS running CDA 1234-4820 X10a 2.0.2.A.0.24 and there IS and update. I did not update until someone can confirm that we can root the new update?
I can NOT confirm if this for DT or not.

Get latest .435 (multitouch update) for X10i without needing to flash the ROM

Worked in Singapore! Might work for other regions also..pls try and report

there is a very simple way to do it: root your phone, change in system/build.prop these 2 lines:
ro.semc.version.cust=XXXX-XXXX
ro.product.name=X10_XXXX-XXXX
change the X with 1234-8465
restart phone and run SEUS

i am the laziest guy on this forum...hence this method is the quickest..
rooting X10i is extremely easy...check the sticky.
what u need:
1. Rooted X10i
2. Root explorer app (version 2.10.1 recommended)
3. Refer to this thread.

working
I have followed imugur's instructions as given in the first post but rather than changing my UK Generic version for the Nordic one (1234-8465) I went for the Global Generic (1232-9897)
I first tried the phone's own check for updates after rebooting but it found nothing, however, I then tried PC Companion and was immediately given the new software update (with a specific mention of multitouch support being added)
Going through the process now, PC Companion estimates a total time of 30 mins
Cheers,
Mik

Keeps saying that I have the latest firmware i have .24 no multitouch, already on nordic firmware, no update through seus, pc companion or phone.... trying a repair
currently on 2.0.2.A.0.24

If you got a X10a and flashed X10i firmware on it or vice versa, SEUS and PCC will not recognize your device.

hmmm thats interesting, have to look to switch it back to x10a
Thanks for the insight

And what's the point of that?
The biggest advantage of flashing is to give us a faster phone and most important dualtouch.
By doing that way you can't get either.
And more. I'm not sure about this but on every custom roms you must have 435 flashed so that dualtouch work. Not sure trough.

If you're rooted you can just change the CDA numbers back to a X10a device, then it will be recognized again.

Mine was updated to this fw but no signal on my f3115. It was updated from sony service center due to need repair of charging port. Help.

I updated today to this new firmware and I'm now facing an annoying bug. Every time I reboot my phone some of my settings are reseted to default. For example "Font size" will go back to default. It will say in settings "Small" even though it isn't. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Updated today, so far so smooth

It drains my battery... Anyone experiencing this? Like while im downloading through wifi battery is around 30% in seven minutes its drained. Device location is already turned off... Using wifi for the download. Factory reset done as well as battery reset...
