I've read the entire thread but please forgive me if I missed something - is WWE_R1EA025 on the first page for X10a or X10i? There are a lot of non-English speaking members here and I couldn't follow all the broken English (I'm Canadian but English wasn't my first language either).

I accidentally flashed my X10a to X10i but managed to flash it back. Now I'm running R1FB001 and it's all right. My only gripe is that the battery went from just under 48 hours to 16 hours after optimizing every setting and disabling APN when not in use. I've reflashed, defragged my stock SD card (from Rogers Canada) and carefully went over every setting twice, it's not a user error.

I'm eager to use R1EA025 even if there will be a new release tomorrow. Thank you everyone for your cooperation too. This is a tightly knit community. Hopefully SE will come to their senses and start supporting their loyal customers. This is a great peice of hardware that is under utilized!!!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] jerpelea:
WWE_R1EA025 IS FOR X10i
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bongd:
Thanks for the quick response. When I was accidentally stuck on X10i FW my battery life was awesome. I'm almost tempted to flash it to X10i again but I'll wait for a new FW just to play it safe.

I appreciate all that you've done for the community. Too bad SE wasn't as enthused as it's customers!!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] BTTNext:
Didn't see that, thanks.

what this update bring over the stock one ,please any body tell me :confused:
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] tomdot:
Debrand method doesn't work for WWE_R1EA025 as the SEUS installer somehow detects a different file and deletes + re downloads the original.

Have tried both

PC_Companion_2.00.115_Web.exe

and PC_Companion_2.00.242_Web

Any other tricks?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Higgins12:
In the Post with the ROM's is clearly written

You can't flash those Files with SEUS. alternative you can use Omnius (mentioned in this thread)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] tomdot:
...clearly written that "shipped" ROMS with the flash tool and that WWE_R1EA025 requires the debrand method which is SEUS/PC Companion.

Can't flash with Ominius either. That is also clearly written

Re: DECRYPTED X10 ROMS - LATEST R1FB001 ROM - FAST and EASY UPDATE

What you have to do is clean blobfs folder first, then reflash x10 with the fw you already have, then after flash open seus, detect the phone and when it asks if you want to reinstall overwrite firnware files. That way the program wont notice what you did with the files...

Re: DECRYPTED X10 ROMS - LATEST R1FB001 ROM - FAST and EASY UPDATE

This firnware works like crap on my phone. It crashed three times on two days, its ntt docomo branded, and gmail notifications dont work for me. I have it installed because it looks like a beta firmware and could have some holes but havent checked that yet.. if you want a stable firmware get r1fb001, if you want to test things give it a try. Only notice after flashing it youll have to go back to a r1f firmware to be able to use seus again...

Help

One can someone please tell which is the method to place the WWE_R1EA025 firmware, SEUS is the method? it has used the method Omnius?. And if they can show are the steps

I've completed the steps listed, when asking me to reinstall the software, replacing the two files R1EA025.zip SO-and the SEUS re-download the old software. I can tell the steps to install the SO-R1EA025.zip. Because the method does not work debrant
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] jerpelea:
REPLACE the 2 big seus files with the new ones (desired version)

your desired files MUST owerwrite old files

your desired files MUST have the same name

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
It looks good, but I'm unsure if it will block the root exploit from being used. Can you flash over any firmware with an older one, completely?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] olisun39:
I upgraded to the R1EA025 firmware but I cannot go back to the previous firmware.

I tried the de-branding option but it the SE update tool says that my phone is already upto date and doesn't give me an option to re-install it.

Any ideas?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] lqbweb:
i dont see anything important
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ixemun:
just follow the debranding method, and click repair, it will trick SEUS into thinking that it's repairing the same firmware
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] olisun39:
Unfortunately I don't get the "repair" option...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] instigator008:
Omnius should do it.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dnguyen1022:
So I just got this phone, and I really don't want to brick this by accident. Coming from an X1 everytime I flashed my firmware, I picked the firmware that correlated with where my phone came from. Does the same thing apply to the X10? My phone came from China, so would this

How did you manage to flash those files.

Bricked my phone after trying (glad i managed to unbrick it with omnius and firmware R1FB001)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] AndyD777:
I was going to ask the same thing as I get the yellow warning triangle after flashing those files.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] damangsm:
is anyone else getting the following file names when downloading the new r2ba020 rar file??

the files have no extension and wont work when renamed to zip files, i have tried the download 2x and also with 2 different rar extractors...

the other files linked to on the first page work perfectly...

cheers in advance
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] olisun39:
same with the 25 version... I got paranoid and finally managed to setup the internet settings manually...

Now I can't charge using my computer's usb connector and I am desperately trying to rollback to the current UK version...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] PheneoN:
Ok after re-trying i managed to flash the files.

Edit:

After inspecting this firmware i must conclude that alot of swedish junk is installed, and its not possible to uninstall it.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] damangsm:
so you managed to download the new r2ba020 rar file from the link on the first page, extract the 2 zip files, and then go from there?? the file i get have 2 files inside without .zip extensions, and they wont flash at all.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] olisun39:
Use omnius to flash the 2 zip files as it recognises the zip files.

Make sure you create an account on the Omnius server to be able to flash your X10.

I now managed to rollback to the UK version....
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] aDIsease:
i would like to know too before i muck up.

R1FB001 is workin alright, i think its a tiny bit slower when i ran the linpack compared to the stock rom
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] robbyf66:
I'm wondering as well. Plus I'm curious if I can do this over wine on linux with seus or omnius tool & I'm to lazy to search but I need a back up tool. any recommendations?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] instigator008:
WWE_R2BA020 (first page) is in the wrong format for Omnius (need two zip files). These appear to be regular files that go into Blob_fs for the debranding method.

Anyway I can use these with Omnius?

WWE_R2BA020 quick review:

battery life significantly better than old versions (this alone is worth it)

97% remaining after 4 hours (15 minutes of browsing)

Noticeably faster (not monumental) but quicker than R1FB001 which was faster than my stock WWE_R1FA014

Definitely better color rendition than previous versions (I don't think it's pyschological). I am quite sensitive to color rendition and use only PVA or IPS monitors for personal use, can generally tell if LCD's are 6bit vs 8bit, and after using the X10 for nearly 3 months, I do think R2BA020 somehow has more saturated colors. Can anyone attest to this?

PS. I had to install via Debrand Method.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ptesmoke:
may i ask if your with rogers canada? or on x10a??? or x10i??

i still have yet to see anywhere if this is for x10a or x10i
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Nimche:
I think it is listed under the X10i on the second post.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] tomdot:
X10i, Smartone-Vodafone (Hong Kong)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ptesmoke:
thanks for the quick reply, i did look but maybe i missed it on the second page, as most of them are listed on the front page...and i coulda sworn it was under the x10a heading...i should go look again i guess.

again thanks, and from what i understand x10a's should NOT flash this then right?

regards
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Fuzalert2k:
They should NOT. I think it would mess up the 3G settings, and probably take that connection out together for X10a users. Don't quote me though, but trust me--you're gonna end up wanting to go back to X10a version of the update since problems will arise.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] BrockFerens:
my understanding, and i am running x10i fw on a x10a is you can do it but you wont be able to update through seus, people need to read, and search instead of taking the easy road.

I would like to flash the new fw but PC companion is telling me it cant repair or update software. I have deleted all files in blob, also restarted comp, and phone still no go it wont let me repair so i can swap files help please

Edit: Ok i think i have figured it out, I running a x10i firmware on a x10a so i cannot update through pc companion im htinking i have to flash a x10a fw with omnius then try for the new firmware?

Short Review

From WWE_R1FB001 to WWE_R2BA020

1. Generally faster

2. Auto insternet setting is disabled.

3. No idea what language is this. LOL. Most pre-installed apps are in that language. navigation, prisjakt, supernytt, svtplay, tv.nu. You cant even uninstall them.

4. Back up and restore app builtin. (english)

5. timescape has theme option. (actually, just the wallpaper it changes.)

6. An option to update automatically the timescape when it starts is added, makes it a bit faster. but still lagging.

7. new icons in mediascape music, photo and video. (lol what an update)

8. The sound slider has new look in mediascape.

9. finally, you can now update album arts using your network. before its only under wifi.

10. well, seems the sound is better. I am using sony MDR EX500. bass and trebble is good. on par with my w995 with "EASY" preset equalizer. but overall, w995 still aeons ahead in sound quality.

11.Still no equalizer. sigh.

12. Ah, with korean, japanese and chinese keyboard built-in. (The chinese and korean lay out looks nice, taller keys, with 4 way navigation and can be used as english input.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ptesmoke:
jerp, forgive me but what exactly are you saying? your building a froyo rom to release once root is public??? bless your soul my man your awesome!

as for this new firmware....does it change the baseband ver?

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ptesmoke:
do u mean 1.0.25??

R2BA020 is Swedish (aka nordic) and Telenor BRANDED.

But the Branding is very low.. So no problem at all....
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ptesmoke:
mckebapp do you recommend flashing this?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] BrockFerens:
Yes, I finally got it to flash, alot of swedish widgets, 4 or 5 apps. Baseband is 1.1.25. I find huge difference in speed, current restoring things to see how adw works, but all in all it seems ALOT better to me. I am not a expert but if the apps dont bother you i suggest it.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] maherladsak:
Sure of the baseband.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] McKebapp:
No, its really 1.1.25

Give me till lunch.

I've recently flashed this morning, right before work and coffee.

I'll answer you later.

Till now, everything looks promising.

And there is also no danger, as you can always downgrade again.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ptesmoke:
awesome thanks so much, take your time its 1am here now so im sure ill be passing out soon. one more question though is it a bad idea to flash this to a x10a?? or is there an x10a version coming??
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] phanquangkhanh:
the file R2BA020 is shipped rom, so I must use the flash tool right ?

do we have the generic one now ?

is it able to root on my X10i, running R1FB001 Nordic ?

thanks.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddewbofh:
If you have an X10i you shoudn't even have to think about it, the latest update is vastly superior when it comes to batterylife. And not like 10-20% better, but more like 500-800% better despite having bluetooth and wlan turned on. I have no idea what fairydust they sprinkled on it but the new update is beyond great. :)

Contact Bug

My wife is currently in singapore and her number is +65902XXXXX. As an info, singapore uses only 8 digit number excluding their country code.

Unfortunately, it is not recognized as a regular number with this new ROM. As if shes not in my fonebook.

I changed it to "00" instead of "+". and no luck. I changed it to "+00" or "0000", then the link starts to work meaning, texts are now grouped and call logs are registered under her name. But of course, this is not a correct combination when used to call or text. This is really crazy. Somewhere it only recognizes atlest 10 digit number. but not 8. Wow. How did they mess up with this? I have even deleted all my numbers and left only hers. To make sure there are no duplication. But still, same issue. (Sad) now I have to use my other phone untill i could figure out whats wrong. This ROM is really good. Its hard to switch back to the old one.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] phanquangkhanh:
can anyone upload the file to other host. I can not download from hotfile :(
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] titom78:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] McKebapp:
As I promised, here are my findings, from 4 hours using it.

Maybe there is a little placebo but:

Everything is way smoother to me.

Switching between the screens, the drawer, jumping from app to app.

Moxier gained 2.1.75, what is really awesome for me. No it is possible to push Moxier contacts to the phone, whenever you like. Thats what i was missing at all.

The new "Backup and restore" App is very promising. You'll be able to backup most things to SD. Even the user edited dictionary.

Returning a backup of my SMS, I saved to SD before flashing, was not possible...

Very good advancement: Switching between 2G and 3G is gained to be really fast.

That's all so far. More maybe later ;D
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] iridaki:
I am on R1FA014, if I flash the latest R2BA020 firmware,

definitly yes!

you can make a data backup with a specific app.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] iridaki:

I already know there are backup options, but since the device isn't rooted yet, I cannot backup the 2 most important things for me: application data and system settings. Titanium Backup would be awesome, if I had root access. :(

I guess, I will have to wait and see...

Thank you again guys!

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] brunswick000:
Ahh sorry for this but I still have trouble wraping my head around this stuff at times. In order for me (currently running X10a R1FB001) to use this latest R2BA020 I will need to re-flash to my original R1FA014 and then use the debranding method to upgrade to R2BA020? Is this right? Was hoping I would be able to use ominus software and just switch from one to the other.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] sofir786:
hey there u do not need to downgrade to a previous firmware, just use the usual debrand method by replacing the 2 files in blob_fs, and it will work. i upgraded to the new firmware this way and i was previously on R1FB001, but this was X10i not X10a. I dnt know if there is a R2BA020 FOR X10a, but the one here is for the X10i. Plus you cannot use omnius because omnius uses .zip files and the files given for the newest firmware are not in that format.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] brunswick000:
Ya i don't care if its X10i now that I know that I can easily switch back to generic or branded X10a firmware. I know that this FW download is not in the correct format for omnius. Was just hoping it would have been that easy.

You think that I should just be able to use the reg debrand method to switch over to this even though im running generic X10a R1FB001?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] sofir786:
Well i was originally running R1FB001 X10i, and used the debrand method in order to upgrade to R2BA020. So it shudnt be a problem, just make sure you backup data that u are gna need. unless you dnt mind stratin from scratch. when u have replaced all files in Blob_fs folder as u usually do for debranding, when u use update service it will say its up to date, just press install and it will say its downloading, it will bypass the download and just carry on and install.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] maherladsak:

You do know you're 3G won't work using X10i firmware don't you. :confused:
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] pally777:
^

That's not true, because 3G is hardware based, not firmware based. I've been running X10i firmware on my x10a for a long time. No 3G issues. All you have to do is redo your setup of APN settings.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] pally777:
Can you please explain here or in PM to me about how you did this?

I was wondering if you used the de-brand method mentioned by previous posters or did you have to downgrade your firmware back to R1FA014, before using the de-brand method to get it up to R2BA020.

I'm also on Rogers in Canada, so that's why I'm wondering. Thanks!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mayamo:
other than the 3g mentioned above. what's the disadvantage to getting x10i on x10a phone?

I also have x10 from rogers, so i'm pretty sure it's x10a.

will i be able to root after getting the latest x10i f/w ??

if there's no diadvantage, what's the point of having x10i and x10a?

i don't use 3g (this is data, right?) but in case i do decide to use it in future, will i be able to go back to x10a?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] pally777:
The whole reason why people (me at least), want X10i firmware on X10a is because Sony has a habit of releasing firmware to Europe/Asia first before giving it to us North/South Americans. The firmware updates usually fix or improve various aspects of the phone. If you want to know what, take a read from the other thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=709650).
