Downgrade from 2.1.1.A.0.6 to 2.0.2.A.24

Hello,

I am total NOOB, therefore I am asking in this thread. I updated firmware to 2.1.1.A.0.6 with PC Companion/SEUS, but I am not satisfied with it (please, don't ask me why) and I would like to downgrade back to stock 2.0.2.A.24. My question is: Is it possible? How? I would like to have stock firmware 2.0.2.A.24 (fresh ROM from SEUS), original for my CDF number. I read this thread and many others, but I want to know what should I do in simple steps...

Thanks in advance
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
yes you can...

you will need mini flasher tools, and the right fw for your pro.

i think you better check this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=895947

and read the step by step you should be able to do it. any qeustions just post it here. or the original thread.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Mekki99:
Thx,

I read that thread, but i still have one question. How do I flash the right FW if I dont have it? I read something about flashing for example nordic rom or whatever, then changing build.prop and repair with PC companion or SEUS. Is that right? What should I change in build.prop in order to change it to my region? I know my CDF number... if it helps

P.S.: I forgot to mention that I own x10 mini pro (U20i)

need more clarification related to warranty..........

gooooooddddd.........man really impresss with your tutorial.....but still i hav doubts....about warranty ......do i get my warranty if upgrade to some custom rom and then downgrade to original os using sony ericssion upadte service......
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
You will only need the right fw for your region. Download and flash it, I believe thats all...

And nothing to bother with build prop or anything.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
Whenever you flash with custom rom, yes your waranty are void...

The only way to gain waranty back by flashing through seus.

just update it via SEUS or pc companion.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Prior2:
How do I change the baseband version?

Hello. First of all thanks a lot.

I'm completely lost. My X10 Mini Pro (U20i) has:

Firmware version: 2.1-update1

Baseband: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404006

Build version: 2.0.A.0.504

Company: Vodafone-Spain

ok, my problem is (I think) very simple, but I don't know how to proceed: I need baseband 53404015 to install Cyanogen CM7 or CM6. Both, PCCompanion and SEUS say that my phone is fully updated.

What should I do to get baseband 53404015? I have already rooted it and installed xRecovery. Both work ok.

How about a step by step guide? The first thing I don't understand is why SEUS and PCCompanion say my phone is updated... :confused:

A big, big, big THANKS!

How can SEUS be used for brick ???? It wont detect phone unless its turned on !!!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
Switch off phone.

Open seus, follow on screen step by step.

Press and hold back button on phone bfore plugging in usb cable.

When led show green light, thats mean you are connected to seus.

That should work, and ready to flash.

Its seus, not pc companion.

flashing new theme

i want to flash a new theme... how can do tat some help needed...

a procedure would be helpful:confused:

And one more thing is tat if i go to SEUS link sony ericsson shows only PC companion only... whether they hav merged both or stil update software is der ???
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
My gosh, shame on me for ignoring this post.

Well actually i kinda forgot to add how-to flasing themes.

My bad my bad.

I'll update this post when im on pc.

Just wanna let u guys know that i sold my U20i to fix my pc, now my pc are fixed, too bad i dont have my mini pro anymore... Switch to arc.

Well left the old story behind, i'll try to answer every questions with my mini pro knowledge.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
Again i've failed to read this one too.

To get the right baseband you need to get it i believe from the theme post. Its right where the theme you wanted to download.

Other method using the search function.

Update me here once you found any. Incase you're confused.

Again im so sorry for not replying your post.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
Alrite.

I think yes they've removed the link to seus for mini pro.

Looks like they are stating that mini pro doesnot compatible with seus.

I will try to find any solution for this when i get back to my pc.

And i will also update the first page and add how-to flash theme and roms step by step.

And 1 more thing. Bout the theme you will need to flash it via xrecovery. That means you need to root and install xrecovery before you are able to flash custom themes and roms.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sobhan06:
sir

The last part... i hav everything like like rooted, installed xrecovery and also CWM... wat is flashing ??? jus download the software zip file and...

like in xrecovery... wipe cache data, then go to install the update from zip .. is tat is called flashing... ???

Thanks for ur reply
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
That is what we know till now we call it flasing.

Anything related to rom and theme we call it flashing.

There are 2 methods to do it.

1.Flashtool, used to upgrade or downgrade the firmware or baseband.

Eg. If you are going down from 2.1.1.c.xx to 2.1.1.a.06, flashtool that you need.

2.Recovery, used to flash rom or theme. (3 month ago, thats the only method i know about flashing custom rom and theme, im not sure what CWM are.)

Eg. CM7 aka gingerbread &CM6 aka froyo both are custom rom. Designed for mini/pro as we know there's no official update from sony for android ver 2.2 froyo and 2.3 gingerbread.

And theme, to change the UI on our rom.

The only way to achieve these are by flashing through recovery.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sobhan06:
Thank you very much sir..

Iam clear now... abt wat to do and how to do ... :D
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:

Hi, i flash firmware to x10 mini but not set debug model, now it brick :( i can't power on it, and can't use sesu or pc companion, please help me
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
You don't need to set debugging on or off in order to flash, just turn your phone on in flashmode when the software asks for it.

Method 1: Turned off phone: Press back-button and then plug in the usb-cable

Method 2: Phone can't be turned off: Plug in the usb-cable, press Home and Power-buttons till the screen goes black (backlight off), then release home and power and press and hold the back-button.

In both cases the led will turn green and any software (SEUS, PC Companion or Flashtool) can flash to your phone.

Your phone already has the latest available software installed.

The only option I get is to exit the SEUS.

Is there any way I can force the repair?

Hi!, i'm looking for a ROM with a good battery life, because, i like to plug on 3g all day and my actual ROM in 2 hours, spends about 20% of battery that's horrible!

Thanks so much guys!

Have you tried LeeDroid 3.0? I'm running that, I'm a heavy user and it works a treat. Plus, HTC Sense =)

The best battery-saving-rom is Redux 1.1.2. for me! Give it a try :)

Thanks to both, actually the LeeDroid 3.0 haven't shows spanish language 100%, so, it's a "problem" (not too important, but i'm spanish and i like have my phone in my language :p) so, i'll try Redux 1.1.2 and later LeeDroid when shows spanish ;)

[Desire General] Bingley:
Tbh I get 3-5mA usage on the stock sense 2.2x rom - so battery isn't bad on the stock roms. What can change is the radio/ril which determine how efficiently the phone handles mobile/wifi signals - after screen usage and wifi this is usually the biggest drain.

That said, I find it looks nice but don't need it all and prefer Redux :)
[Desire General] dezz28:
+1 for Redux defiently the best battery saving rom i've tried
[Desire General] Bingley:
What do people use to monitor app mA/battery usage?

I've tried battery monitor widget, and system panel; the former show's me - by monitoring every 60s - that something is pushing the battery from 3-4mA to 50, 80, even 150mA usage at seemingly random times (phone idle overnight) - any ideas of an app to shop which these spikes are?

Syspanel is ok, but doesn't show you what causes what usage when.
[Desire General] Meaple:
Battery life is also determine by what's running in the background. I'm running CM7 and I use wifi practically all day. If I don't use that then I use mobile network. My battery life can span up to 2 days or a little more if I'm careful.

Battery saving roms are ok but unless they're been heavily optimized for it, I don't see the real point.

Hey Guys

Im new here but i had a question regarding my DHD's screen. Ive had the phone now for 4 months and have now noticed that in all of the high use area's, the screen has lost its shine. Any idea's of products that will replenish its shine? :confused: Or is it looking like a new phone screen? I'll try to put some photo's on ASAP.

Thanks for your help;

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tony_reilly:
I know EXACTLY what you're talking about. I had a review unit from HTC that I got just before Xmas that suffered the same effect (i.e. if you're holding the phone looking at it, to the right of center was, eh, smudged, or something. It just wasn't as "glassy" as the rest of the screen. It ran form top to bottom and was about an 1-1.5inchs wide, and go much wider at the bottom).

Not sure if there's a fix tbh, I contacted HTC's PR here in Ireland who gave it to me originally, showed the the phone and they replaced it for me! :)

Hope you find a fix, but just wanted to share that I know what you're talking about.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lewis2508:
Thank-you! So its not just me. All of my friends got the Wildfire and i got the DHD. The amount of mick-taking because of how much more i spent and its got faulty glass. It could be a trip to fones4u then. My only problem is, that although i have a receipt, it was not bought by me. So the invoice has the wrong address on. I will have to see. Anyway, thanks a lot for the response.

The only thing i've see that might help is Brasso Gadget Care, check some reviews of it on youtube, since i cant post links yet, but yea, i've been tempted to buy some for myself, but im using a screen protector atm anyway, but that might be your best bet to restoring that shine.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwer23:
Hi @all!

I was finally able to order an Eee Pad Transformer out of UK. It should arrive in the next days :D

Now as you perhaps know, the grid in Germany is different from the one in the UK and I'll have to use a travelling adapter or USB to charge the Transformer. No problem so far, but in the long run it's still a little cumbersome...

So do you guys know if the docking station comes with an extra charger/power supply? That would be cool because I'll order that one in Germany and I wouldn't have to use the travelling adapter all the time.

Additionally, does anyone know what the docking station will contain besides the keyboard?

Regards

qwer23
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magnesus:
In what shop did you buy it?

Thanks. I didn't know. I have to look for an adapter for that now... :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psinno:
I won't need an adaptor but I am still highly interested in knowing which shop you used :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funnycreature:
Just to clarify - it's not the "grid" that is different in Germany; both have ~220-240 V. It's the outlets that are different. Definitely get a charger since I read that USB charging takes forever!

[sent with Xooming Android technology]
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwer23:
@funnycreature: thx for clarifying, that's what I wanted to say :D And yes I already read that charging via USB is a pain in the @ss. I already have an adapter, I just want to know if the docking station'll come with another one when I buy it in Germany.

@Magnesus and psinno:

Ebay :D First I bought via borderlinx by a subsidiary from Comet (don't know the name right now since I'm at work) but they cancelled my order because they ran out of stock (as well as Comet i think).

But I was lucky and got the only one in ebay that was shipped from UK. All others are from Taiwan right now, meaning very high custom fees and such crap.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuntdouble:
I think how it works is that you just use the adapter and usb cable that came with your eee pad, and that plugs into the keyboard dock. And then obviously you put the tablet into the dock to charge up the main pad. I dont think there is an extra charger involved. So in your situation you will just need a normal UK>euro adapter. I doubt anyone other than reviewers have the keyboard dock yet, but from the videos/pictures I've seen this is how it seems to work.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwer23:
Yeah that's what I guessed, too. Too bad though... Perhaps I'll buy the charger serparately to save me the adapter stuff.

Thx for clarifiing!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwer23:
Now something different: Can I charge my Transformer with an X10 USB->supply adapter (EP-700)? Output is 5V, 700mA, the Transformer needs 15V, 1.2A. Don't really know how this would affect the device, will it just charge slower or will it damage my battery? :confused:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rothnic:
It will charge it much, much slower. That output is basically the same as a usb port from a computer.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwer23:
It's a little higher ;) I don't care about the speed, but the Transformer I bought is completely drained and USB driver fails to install. And since the original charger doesn't work with German power supplies, I need to charge it otherwise. Thx!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magnesus:
Not even with an adapter?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rothnic:
It's not a little higher in voltage though, which is what matters. The lower the voltage difference, the less current flow.

First the power supply needs to be a high enough voltage, but not too high to where the internal circuitry cannot handle it. Then the current value is how much current the charger can supply. This generally matters most with something that is hooked up 100% of the time, like a desktop, or a laptop which you are running from the charger.

I'm not sure why it wouldn't work with German power. It should be the same as adapting to any European supply, just need a physical adapter.

Back up your apps with Titanium Backup or a similar app. Flash 2.3 and then download Link2SD and Titanium Backup again. Restore your apps and move them again using Link2SD.

Thank you for your concern,

i have second question. If i flash without -w option, may any problem occurs ?

Thank you.
[GT540 Optimus General] JackG256:
Using fastboot -w will erase all data from the phone's internal memory, this helps with compatibly between firmwares. If all your data + apps are backed up, there shouldn't be a problem :)

Hope it helps,

Jack
[GT540 Optimus General] nibras_reeza:
There's a small issue with these methods though. Assuming you have installed more than amount of total internal memory worth of apps, it would mean you will have to restore apps by sets so that you don't restore more than the internal memory at once. Then, link them one by one.

The problem is these apps backup the whole apk although backing up symlink would enough since usually SD or SD-EXT is not harmed when flashing custom ROMs.

In any case, I'd take a wait. It appears bakpinkar is going to add app backup capabilities and batch linking to Link2SD by next release which I hope would happen before April ends.

Chanced across this youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5uhnJxmKqU

Shows how BAD the stock rom (even its successors) are. Tablet lagged, wifi failed, browser didn't load and something force closed during its show case.

But the guy said "we are expected to be on gingerbread and honeycomb by mid year." Good news?

They should just hire the developers her on XDA (roebeet, rothnic, pershoot, gojimi) to get even a chance.
