He wasn't asking "what is...", he was asking "Was it..."...

But anyway.. curious thing this.. after seeing the comments earlier I just tried the SEUS update and it did indeed find "new software".. although it's still the same f/w (020).. same baseband etc... etc. The file downloaded was 140 something Mb... compared to the 40 something downloaded OTA..

And... the phone is now definitely, indubitably faster/ snappier.. I was already getting better battery life with the "previous" 020 version..

eg. Today - taken off charge at 0730 at 93%.. now.. 16 hours later, at 40%.. used it a fair bit too today... if this newer/ bigger 020 version is even better then.. I'll be chuffed to bits!.
[XPERIA X10 General] Belazor:
023 definitely feels snappier to me, after taking it out of about 6 hours of sleep the phone had absolutely zero lagginess, unlike 020 and all previous versions.

New SEUS makes cross-flashing region versions a hassle, but it was definitely worth it for me :)

The ability to uninstall Supernytt (the only Nordic app included) is also a nice touch.
[XPERIA X10 General] Candy[MAN]:
And how did you do that? I have been trying with no success. It keeps downloading the whole file again and will not take the 023 file I pasted into the blobs folder.
[XPERIA X10 General] Belazor:
First I took ownership of the folder to prevent UAC from interfering.

Then, I let it re-download once and changed the file names as described.

It was a matter of timing the replace so that the second it was finished downloading, the paste went through and the updating process began.

It requires split-second timing, so unless you're a keyboard ninja, you may end up wasting time ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] Candy[MAN]:
@ Belazor Thanks for the tip. Managed to do it now.

So I tried that unbranded X10a R2BA023 and have it up and running. It surely does look unbranded. On initial boot, the language is set to Spanish but once you select your proper language upon unlocking unit, everything is fine. Had to set up my Rogers APN (not surprising seeing it is unbranded). Everything is working fine.

Will post findings once I have a few hours of usage under my belt.

I did the same thing, but don't see any change in the speed.

Althogh something bad did happen: PlayNow disappeared and now I have this "com.sonyericss..." application that crashes my home screen every time I try running it.

Same issue was reported in .23 firmware by murmeljenta in this thread:

Tried SEUS again (last looked 3 days ago) and said update available.

Now got R2BA023.

Just been notified of OTA update for branded vodafone. Size 41mb. Should I download this or wait for the SEUS update. Isn't the SEUS update larger?
[XPERIA X10 General] Bennachie:
141mb through SEUS though I got both and I can tell no difference. The incall is still an anagram of a large, fresh water fish.

I tried using the SEUS today and I got an update but my build number hasn't changed, it is still R2BA020. What exactly was updated?

You'll notice the battery life is better straight away ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] Zenghelis:
I don't think so if the firmware is the same.
[XPERIA X10 General] StrangeReality:
Yes I meant that the firmware hasn't changed eventhough it said on SEUS there was an update. Has anyone with an unbranded UK x10 got the new update? Or is it only on Vodafone so far? I would have thought the unbranded models would come out with updates first?
[XPERIA X10 General] AndyD777:
I think you find it will ;)

I done a test using Generic UK R2BA020 update via OTA and the battery life was still dire, If you then plug the same phone in to SEUS it will say you have a update available and the battery life difference was night and day :D
[XPERIA X10 General] StrangeReality:
Yes that's exactly what I did. I updated it using OTA a few days ago and just now I got an update using SEUS. I'll have to test it out. Thanks for the info.
[XPERIA X10 General] Zenghelis:
Ok, Andy, i'll do it too. I got 023 spain updated via OTA and battery life sucks under 3g. Other people say that battery last for them much longer than before. Maybe they have updated by SEUS, (at least one that I know did).

Maybe because SEUS installs the whole firmware and OTA is just a patch. I'll try and tell you.

Regards
[XPERIA X10 General] StarZtorm:
Updating via OTA now.

updating!!!
[XPERIA X10 General] Nimche:
All the threads are closed with the idea of "Keeping Forum Clean" A.K.A. "KFC" but I have a feeling inside me that wants to talk about Update to 2.1/

Its not that I want to populate the forum with junk but we are all here to talk and discuss for the sake of Internet's Forum (Social Community) where we all have one thing in common "Our Beloved Xperia Family".

I have extra time and searched for "R2BA026" to see when was the first time we heard about it and it was July 28th but the firmware was approved on July 12th and I am hoping it won't take them that long to release 2.1.

+I didn't want to open a new thread so I used the oldest one.

Cheers,

Since a few time Sony Ericsson website homepage is NOT available (it returns error): maybe could it be due to the publishing of the minor update for our X10?? :)

o2 germany said on twitter there will be an update for the X10 TODAY. I asked them which version and was told r2ba020.

For everyone who speaks german -> http://twitter.com/o2myhandy

At least SE speaks to o2...

Just the German 02 CDA/CFA verison of the firmware. :D

Is you're handset a generic one? As that would explain the lack of update at the mo. Unless Telenor have more then one CDA/CFA

if this was the case then why isnt it the same with Iphone which in comparison its still pretty darn loud!

The volume issue is the in-call volume NOT the music player, which is quite loud.

Found these on anothe site:

List of changes with new firmware:

1. Increase the transition fade animation is harmonious and systems with well.

2. The acceleration of the system, such as the original come out if there are two menus, such as to select the input method menu, this time to pull down the notification bar will feel very card, obviously rom optimization problems, now resolved.

3.ui on some changes, mainly in the ts ms. Ts a theme options, and also that can change the ts background, but only a few basic application is built-in color change. Speed did not feel a raise, ts is the same card to do home.

Mediascape ui have some changes, mainly under the three options have changed, and then press the menu button to enter the video there will be three options, one more zoom options, double scale, was canceled. Adjust the volume of ui also looking from another, and the overall sense of the whole system more.

4. AV sync problem-solving.Some films turn themselves in before the point of view clear rom video are not synchronized, but in this rom no problem at all!

5. There is also a very important, and each brush must try a firmware software is skyfire. Firmware before using this software will have problems, buffering the window has been blocked playback screen will be, but this firmware to solve this problem! This software can be a temporary alternative to flash video.

Translation not the best, but we get a general idea

I called up the Sony Ericsson Call Center, which they have, ironically, a department answering Xperia-related questions.

But the Customer Service Officer, when asked regarding the firmware updates, he had absolutely no idea about what's happening around the world. After checking, he reported to me that .14 IS the latest software available.

Then my next question - what does it mean by 'customized', under the header, 'Brand', he could now answer me.

Nor did he know the 'Contra Code' of the left,left, right, right, button code thingee...
