As the topic says...

For some reason when i open PC companion it says that i dont need any update and if i use reinstall function it installs me 2.1.1.A.0.6

how to get latest firmware officialy?

i have found at xda 2.1.1.c.0.0. but provided links do not work
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] obsidian_eclipse:
Pc companion or SEUS can be terrible if your mobile phone provider hasnt given the all clear for the software update. Sadly some havent, mine reverts to 1.6 (donut) if I use PC Companion so I doubt the phone provider ever will! (my provider states its Sony Ericsson and Sony state its the phone provider - complete non responsibility). The only option is to trawl xda forums for links and flash using flashtool. Hopefully someone will provide a link..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] newestuser:
I understand that and here is a funny thing...

some months ago i was only getting 2.1.1.C.0.0 via SEUS or PC Companion till i flashed to older version so i could install gingerbread :D
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] newestuser:
And a funny thing, i tried to resintall software thro SEUS and PC Companion few times and all was older 2.1.1.A.0.6 but not only that, every time Keyboard layout was different :D

Now i have Azerty keyboard instead Qwertz or Qwerty :)

I have just took a leap from Iphone 4 s to Xperia s, I'm really happy with the device until i come to streaming avi files from my Synology Nas!

How do i get my Xperia to play streamed avi, swf & mp4???

Also i checked & found that i have an unlockable bootloader, What are the pros & cons of unlocking it?

Thx
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kartobot:
Read this thread.

It's about rooting,unlocking the bootloader and so on.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pezo:
First of all, please change the thread title to something reasonable, that tells one what you want help with.

Now as for playing avi, swf and mp4 files: these are all container formats that can contain a number of different video formats. If the built in player can't play them, try a different one, maybe it works then.

Unlocking the bootloader (as far as I know, I'm no pro there so don't take my word for it):

+ You can flash a new kernel or ROM with fastboot mode (needed to root as far as I know ATM).

- Probably your warranty is voided, I don't know exactly if relocking gets the warranty back though.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kartobot:
I think you won't get the waranty back,since you need to enter your IMEI number to unlock,so the waranty for this particular IMEI number is void.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shmoejoe:
Where does it say that it actually voids your warranty? I read -may-, which I believe they only even stuck it there so people won't fry their phones by overclocking, then send it in, expecting repairs.

Nowhere does it say that its definitely voided, and many people have sent back their phones with unlocked boot loaders for the yellow issue as well. I believe even when the Arc was unlocked, they still accepted the phone for repairs and such.

Much like anything you do with your phone outside of "normal use" you take risks. Unlocking the boot-loader just happens to bring the -risk- of voiding your warranty if you do something dumb with it. It doesn't say it 100% does, it just says it -may-.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] marjohn56:
Playing streams

Use aVia, this will show you the DNLA folders, then install MXPlayer. it has the codecs needed. I'm sure there is a better solution, but it works for me. You can also install the SMB module for Astro, that will then give you direct browse to your shares and you can copy files to your XPS, I move music and other bits around in that way.

Mine is rooted, you can always unroot it.

I agree with your statement 'may' does not mean 'will'
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] charmz2k2:
Agreed on this one... I would have thought the standard "Connected Devices" app should be able to play avi files from a network based storage drive? My Galaxy S II could - I've even installed MXPlayer but it doesn't help when I select the file from the "Connected Devices" app..

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!!

As now Certchain... signing is very easy with XadaXppsXignature.exe... for BOTH:

bada 1.x

AND

bada 2.x

It is possible to modify Binary *.exe from Apps.

Few ideas:

- Translation of some Apps...

- minor changes... maybe bug fixing...

First stupid test was to increase *.exe to learn more about memory handling... RAM...

But failed... as added 2 MB at end of ELF :D

Success with stupid text change...

Many more ideas... but for now limited by time... and skills...

Anyway. Limitation by RSA 1024 is gone... blown away. :p

[Bada Software and Hacking General] adfree:
Maybe I give an example...

kona.exe = Samsung Apps

Maybe now we could do some funny things with this app... for instance:

Remove dxmn forced Updates...

Samsung Apps is working very fine in older Firmware, with older Samsung Apps App...

I think kona.exe is very powerfull...

All I can say is Andromeda... :p

As we know, we can install more then 1 kona.exe ...

[Desire HD General] stuarta99:
Not sure if anyone can help.

For some reason, I noticed a couple of weeks ago that my phone alerted me as normal for some app updates, but when I checked them, practically every app on my phone needed updating.

Shortly after that, I was in the bedroom browsing the net and noticed that the wifi icon was only on the dot and floating up to about 1 or 2 bars - always used to be full.

Sat here now in front my router and its was the same, although strength is showing good and 65Mbps. My partners Desire S is showing full strength along with my work iPhone. Was also in the bedroom last night and it was hopeless, kept dropping out and unusable, although iPhone again was full - never used to be like it.

As far as I can see, the software hasn't changed

Android 2.3.5

HTC Sense 3.0

Software number 3.12.405.1

Hope someone can advise

Hi, I downloaded and install optimize from new provision optimize tool (automatically adding tweeks ) but it screwed my 2g and 3g connection so here's the question. I want to delete modified build.prop and restore the backedup one (the apply did it before optimization). I'm noob in this, so can I just delete the modified one and rename the original back up? Is it OK? Thanks

Swyped from my ZTE Blade
[Blade General] Faiz Malkani:
Yes u can. Just delete build.prop and rename ur backup which is usually build.prop.bak to build.prop. :)
[Blade General] Gnaver:
OK I tried to delete it but it said It can't be deleted. Tried renaming but action cannot be done ... I'm using es file explorer.

Oh and permissions for it are rw-r-r

Swyped from my ZTE Blade
[Blade General] karthiknr:
Use root explorer. Mount R/W.
[Blade General] saaransh9:
if u r using es go to setting and allow root access and superuser access or its something like that delete the modified build.prop first and then remove the .bak from the backuped one and reboot.

or simply use root explorer as kartik said
[Blade General] Gnaver:
Ok ive done it in different way. I reinstalled the tool that screwed it and remove the JiT compiler option from it and installed the optimization again and reboot. Working ok now. Thnx for help guys :)

Hi,

I am going to buy a second hand galaxy s2 phone today from a person. How do I know the exact age of the s2. Is there any code that we can put in to see some internal clock that shows the date of first boot of the phone. The person says its just 2 days old how can I verify it if that is true. Is there any code for this. Please help me as I have to purchase it today.

No. That problem will not be fixed by flashing a bootloader. I wouldn't do that if I were you. You run the risk of bricking your phone.

You only flash a bootloader if your phone won't boot at all with a particular rom, or if you need the old bootloader in order to reset your flash counter in download mode with a USB jig.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Because you don't ask people to post their IMEI's.

What if he didn't have the generic one & he posted his real IMEI ? Someone casually reading the forum goes 'Thanks. I reckon I can sell that IMEI so someone with less than honest intentions can use it on a stolen/barred phone'.

Capice ?

Edit to add - A better thing to ask would have been 'Is your IMEI 004999010640000 (or whatever the generic IMEI is) ?'. That way you only need a yes/no answer, nobody's IMEI gets posted. If it's no, then it isn't an IMEI/EFS problem, If yes, then it probably is.

how to fix EFS??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beston94:
You never learn do you? -.-
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
OK. Now that we've dealt with that little...interruption...time to help you properly. It seems you have the generic IMEI & your real one has somehow been wiped/gone fubar.

The easiest way to fix it obviously is if you have your EFS backed up. If you don't there are tools on Google Play which claim to help you recover your IMEI, but reports I've seen about these recently say they only have a chance of working if you have some/all of your "nv_" files in your EFS folder.

I guess what it all boils down to is are you able to make calls, use data; I.E can you use your phone normally. If you can, it may not be a massive problem having a generic IMEI. Yes, some telcos around the world ban phones they detect with a non-unique IMEI, but I've also seen plenty of instances of people on here who have used their phone just fine with the generic one.

If you don't have a backup & really really need to get your IMEI back because your phone doesn't work, you need to contact Odia on here. He can apparently recover your IMEI (most of the time) in situations where it might otherwise be really hard to do (for a small 'donation').

So first up, answer the questions about EFS backup/whether you have one & also if you're able to use the phone normally & we can go from there.
