[XPERIA X10 General] irl_x10_user:
My plan is wait and see what happens on sunday and then figure out if/when we need to update! Nordic people, please don't gloat too much when/if you get it :-)

Hi everyone, we know you are all waiting for your update. Things are moving fast here, we will have news very soon. Please bear with us

where is sunday ? it says coming soon
[XPERIA X10 General] tigermrk:
finally some news.

Does this mean UK could be monday.? Pointless debranding for the sake of 24hrs

Im guessing that it will be sometime next week either way

Anyone ask SE on twitter if they know a date please :)
[XPERIA X10 General] I7redd:
*fixed* :p

I would never! ;-))

Do I apply for a nordic upgrade ??

:rolleyes:

[XPERIA X10 General] tready:
Advice dont try to flash to nordic just incase se change the roll out plan at the last min and roll out some were else first just wait some one will dump the rom

[XPERIA X10 General] marice22:
I think you are right... also... concerning your claims on twitter, where is this released 2.1 firmware?
[XPERIA X10 General] SaintyUK:
@lollylost100, with you not having access anymore - did someone you know tell you it was there that still has access? :) Would they be able to help in anyway?
[XPERIA X10 General] unknown13x:
Will try with an employee account later today. I know the account but the Emma we have and what the development have are a little different. Will update in a bit.
[XPERIA X10 General] :
I did, yes. AFAIK the database search script by DaVinci found the new FW, so it must be available.
[XPERIA X10 General] :
You only need basic Emma login. Not R&D or anything special. Authorised service centre account should do just fine.
[XPERIA X10 General] paliwalsandeep:
its 11:41 PM here in india.. no updates today :( even EMMA is showing old firmwares... so i am going to sleep nw.. good nyt evrybody :)

may be 2maro morng we could get 2.1 :)

"Hope is a very good thing"
[XPERIA X10 General] nagrockz:
hmmm i ll look for some more time and then go to bed
[XPERIA X10 General] SaintyUK:
So maybe DaVinci will have it soon - to buy obviously ;/
[XPERIA X10 General] unknown13x:
Yes, true but I never had my own account, this account belongs to my colleague. However, I still can't guarantee it'll be there. My unit is a retail unit not OA unit. So the fw will only be there only if the retail fw is already available. The OA units' fw is already on next years' update :p which is the screenshots I posted a while ago. It has the new timescape widget look.
[XPERIA X10 General] pabling19:
OK, I'm pretty much sure no one will 'lend' us their god-like-access to EMMA (atleast not for free) I just hope someone who has such confirms the eclair update here (with screenshots and everything) so that everyone here gets happy (because it means they have little time to wait for the official) Also, it wouldn't hurt to confirm the update on the minis too... Atleast this EMMA thing gives us something to work on... I'll sleep now, (been watching this thread non-stop since it started lol)

I really wish you all good luck!

EDIT:

It's 2:18 in the morning here!
[XPERIA X10 General] damo-music:
Sitting outside in the car, waiting for a friend. 8:15 pm here. the night ist still young enogh for an update :) but im loosing hope for today. Been following this thread since morning :(

Sent from my X10i
[XPERIA X10 General] :
Don't connect your phone. Go to Tools -> Download Services (or similar). Type in X10 for model, then refine results by typing in Generic. Check all Generic FWs.
[XPERIA X10 General] SaintyUK:
Silly question probably: what are OA units? :p

Also @unknown13x, woud you mind posting the link to the screenshots - I'm intrigued :)

Finally a very sad day...its 00:00 am 26th oct in india with no update!!!
[XPERIA X10 General] rvictorg:
Does anyone know if EMMA (or SEUS) checks your location when you query for updates or is it strictly based on your phone's current software?

What I'm getting at is, would it be possible to use a VPN to circumvent any regional restrictions SE may be imposing on updating the phone's software?

Thoughts? Just an idea...god speed gentlemen
[XPERIA X10 General] Cablekevin:
+1 on that from The Netherlands.
[XPERIA X10 General] Inferis:
I bet first update will appear in nordic 27th october.
[XPERIA X10 General] kiltaiga:
idea: can we export service to .esa file, then modify it, and reimport it ?

with winrar i can open esa file, but inside there is a file without extension...
[XPERIA X10 General] SaintyUK:
@rvictorg, its the software versions and customisations that do it, nothing to do with where you are connecting from as far as I'm aware :)
[XPERIA X10 General] 17mayis:
they suppost to realease the update for UK first but Nordic countries doesnt include uk how come :S
[XPERIA X10 General] matthewwing:
I don't wanna burst the bubble of all these people who are basically saying, "Sunday, Nordic, Monday...The World!" But, who knows how long it will take for the update to filter out across different countries and carriers? It could be another day or another month before it ends up in everyone's hands. SE has talked about a "phased" roll out from the beginning, and if there's one thing that's clear, it's that SE isn't concerned at all about the speed at which they satisfy customer demands. On top of that, there's the carriers getting in the way as well...yeah, having a release date for 2.1 is good news, but most of us still have no solid idea when this phased roll out is gonna hit us.
[XPERIA X10 General] Crowds:
supposedly AND according to someone who posted here, was never told by the SE

[XPERIA X10 General] o0k00l:

EDIT: you have a branded phone so it will be later i guess...

great news, if my phone says

country: Global

Brand: customized

when would I get my update?
[XPERIA X10 General] Zer0_:
Oyeeeeeeeee my phone is says Country: Germany

Guessing I gotta wait a little longer...

Then I gotta wait for someone to make it into a x10a phone

Oh man, this is gonna take forever

I also stadet the on the x1 it always was nordic first an uk serveral month later :-(

sorry, is global = UK?

wonder when "Global Generic" handsets will be updated? Anyone here any experience of when previous firmware's have been rolled out in comparison to the Nordic ones?020/023/026, etc?
[XPERIA X10 General] Crowds:
global means exactly that....global

witch means you can upgrade immediately....if you had an unbranded phone, of course
[XPERIA X10 General] ealax:
thanks, you made me happy with this news, I wont get any sleep on saturday, sunday waiting for the update
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
Right time to get a few things straight, nobody here knows the answer to "when".

As for uk, everyone one "expecting" us to be first, but to be honest there nothing that says so and we could be last ones in November.

Everyone is making assumptions. The only thing we do know is Sunday night is Nordic update- that means Iceland, Sweden, Finland, Norway, NOT Netherlands.

My advice to everyone is, we have at least some news now, so let's wait till Monday to see what the trend is, there may or may not be loads of activity Monday
[XPERIA X10 General] Crowds:
assuming that will be updated the first unbranded because I do not remember anyone from SE telling, specifically, whether branded or unbranded will be the first
[XPERIA X10 General] Crowds:
+1 +1 +1 +1 +1 +1
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
Not necessarily, global is global firmware version, but first update is Nordic versions so technically that doesn't include Global unbranded.

I've realised now that you have to take every eventuality in to consideration and read the SE wording correctly, as you can now see with the term "end of October"

:)
[XPERIA X10 General] Anandc:
Ok so now am confused!

My X10 is unbranded and I'm assuming India falls in Global generic so that means we get update on Sunday?
[XPERIA X10 General] noblackthunder:
Well. Everyone that can use glibak should then instal nordic since the language is the same ;-) and you always get updates first ;-)
[XPERIA X10 General] akinaStarz:
Hello guys.

Sorry for the stupid question; is 2.1 update available?

I missing too many pages.
[XPERIA X10 General] Crowds:
we don`t know NOTHING for sure.

the only thing we take from granted is, like jayman1986 said, we do know is sunday night is nordic update.

period.

the rest are only conjectures and assumptions

so....sit, drink something, relax and......wait:)
[XPERIA X10 General] j3yps:
According to SE Blog the update will be available SUNDAY EVENING
[XPERIA X10 General] Crowds:
you forgot something.........

for NORDIC countrys
[XPERIA X10 General] Viking_Power:
im glad i didn't rebrand my phone :D

I had a suspicion that nordic regions would get the update first. Because we are a small group of countries, and neighboors to (Sony) Ericsson Sweden.

Let us sincerely hope that Sweden is in charge so our UK friends will get the update before Japan does.

Cheers :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Limper:
whould you mind pulling build.prop and share it with us ho did debrand :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Crowds:
Not bad.

Write your first post just to clarify that you wish that some coutry receive updates before other .....

Not bad ....

Not bad at all
[XPERIA X10 General] uvaman:
Also funny **** is that 1.11 is the holiday right ^^ so there is 3 questions then :

1.SE will work on monday bc of holiday

2. SE wont work on monday bc of holiday

3. SE will use this day for "last check" and continue on Tuesday

we are fckd again :))

Funny ****

Try to ask UK chat support when they will be ready for it and how long does it take or any other smaller country too check when you can get the 2.1 asap!
[XPERIA X10 General] bongd:
I don't see why everyone's getting so jump about their region. When the firmware is available you have a better chance of downloading it from here than anywhere else. The updating tools from SE absolutely suck. I've never used it for an actual update, just to repair my device or to get another FW on there.

Don't sweat it, guys. When it's available I think we should all band together and make sure that it's uploaded to enough file sharing websites so that no one's waiting any longer. What SE has done with all these delays is just atrocious.
[XPERIA X10 General] Mac_33:
+1, btw, the nordic region only has the X10i's, right? not the X10a?
[XPERIA X10 General] uvaman:
Ur right :) We just need to learn how to do it :) I saw few tuts so I'll try ...
[XPERIA X10 General] Crowds:
may not be so easy, because as SE inform, there will be a major change and (probably, just probably) the current system to copy the rom will not do

Hi All,

Just wanted to pop in and say "Hi!"

Clearly everyone has seen the latest post on the Blog and my @SEAnswers tweet earlier.

Again, this is all the information we have, the product blog will be the place to see information.

Hope you all have a good (and now stress-free) weekend!

I promise to myself to take a break for a while from this addicted thread, because now it's official.

But why I'm here again now. T_T

Just can't hold myself from opening this thread. Lol.
[XPERIA X10 General] rikirix:
From the SE blog: IMPORTANT: As I’ve pointed out previously here on the blog the software upgrade will be done in a phased roll-out which means that different “kits” gets the update at different times. This to secure quality in all networks and countries. So don’t get paranoid if your phone isn’t updated in the very first days – it will come!

I find this redicolous: they are still not able to give a global limit and with this "kit" joke they will release to god knows who. And they even say NOT TO GET PARANOID if people doesn't get the update in the very first DAYS.....wtf!!! :eek:

So there are many of us that will have to wait more DAYS to get this outdated update.....unbelieveble.

........don't get paranoid......:mad:
[XPERIA X10 General] Vilam:
Is UK a nordic country ?
[XPERIA X10 General] kwk:
now that's a good entertainment, have been following this thread for 2 days, it's really addictive!

to add some fuel into it, i have read SE official announcement, they dunnot say that next famous upgrade will be 2.1 They just say they have added some features to it. Can it be next heavily modded version of 1.6 or 2.0?
[XPERIA X10 General] Alihosny:
sorry if OT but iam wondering since the x8's software is certified before the x10 mini on ptcrb(same time as the x10i) and there exactly the same software versions,why x8's 2.1 is later this year?. the three phone mini/pro/x8 are identical in terms of software.

[XPERIA X10 General] kersey:
Damn, I just spent over an hour yesterday flashing from Nordic back to UK firmware as I though we may be first...

Guess I'll flash back to the Nordic now ready for Sunday evening :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X10 General] Alihosny:
when phone is locked press any button to light the screen but don't unlock then press theses buttons in the following sequence

Home

back

back

a secret menu will appear choose software info.this is for x10 mini as i saw your phone as u20i.
[XPERIA X10 General] bongd:
I certainly hope that it's not a challenge. But in any event, I accidentally flashed an X10i rom to my X10a and it actually worked just fine. Had all the correct bands and everying.

I can't wait for Rogers to release this. I know it'll be pushed back even longer. Holding out and crossing my fingers and toes that I'll have this flashed to my X10 before long.

[XPERIA X10 General] Viking_Power:
I have been monitoring this tread since pace 100 (+-), and believe that UK is most reprecented and eagerly to get the update.

Oh well. Maybe i am wrong. All i wish for is that mostly of you guys here get the update next to us in the nordic region :)
[XPERIA X10 General] saltorio:
Two questions (that may have been answered, but I'm not reading all 526 pages to find out):

1. Do we know if we'll be able to flash to a dumped 2.1 ROM via currently known methods?

2. Do we know if the current root methods work for the 2.1 ROM?
[XPERIA X10 General] robbyf66:
1) I don't know

2) can't root... yet
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
Yeah thanks Jeff! We'll all have a stress free weekend, especially since you guys managed to meet your October deadline and we are still quite unclear on when we'll all eventually get the update }: (

P.S Jeff, do you know a Scandinavian language you could teach me?
[XPERIA X10 General] alex.under:
It was logical to expect that the roll-out will begin with the Nordic region, since SE is in a Nordic Country. And for the rumors that UK will be the first to get the update, that never appeared in any official se source, it was just some guy on some blog or whatever started that and everyone got excited.
[XPERIA X10 General] pabling19:
The update will start on Sunday!

http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/products/2010/10/29/xperia-software-update-2/

Oh wait, that's old news right?

@SE-JEFF: Hello! Thanks for dropping by!
[XPERIA X10 General] PGRX10:
Ok my phone says:

Nokia N97

Should have gone to Specsavers.

Does this mean I get Nordic update
[XPERIA X10 General] alex.under:
Read before you post something. We all know this since this afternoon.
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
No.....

You need the Mongolian firmware rooted with symbian to get Nordic update. ; )

P.S for anyone who needs support with debranding, I'M ONLY JOKING! (can't believe I had to add this)
[XPERIA X10 General] pabling19:
It would be nicer if we could know at least top first 3 countries who gets the update... Let me guess:

Nordic

UK

Global
[XPERIA X10 General] LORELAI89:
Sony Ericsson is not a nordic company....ericsson is........sony ericsson is based in london,uk!!
[XPERIA X10 General] Mac_33:
i hope LAM is one of them
[XPERIA X10 General] pabling19:
Yup. already read from page 1 - 527... No page missed. No post unread

Just my way of saying hi
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
Well the headquarters are, but ERICSSON are still Swedish and they make the phones
[XPERIA X10 General] pabling19:
I just hope Global comes earlier as I assume most people have it...

But, SE might save it for last to save bandwidth.
[XPERIA X10 General] Puck24:

[XPERIA X10 General] Viking_Power:
Statement from SE:

We are sorry you had to wait so long for an firmware update. The reason for our government- statemens is that we actually have been working on the android 3.0 (gingerbread) platform. This is what you will receive on Sunday :D
[XPERIA X10 General] Sighx:
Global.. ha.. .. I don't know what I'm going to do. I debranded mine from Rogers and running it on Telus. I'll just have to wait for everyone else that's on Rogers too. Ha. .
[XPERIA X10 General] mbrad_26:
Corect me if I' m wrong:

In previous statements SE said that 2.1 update will be availeble to unbranded kits in late october. So if sunday 31oct comes all unbrandrd kits should have acces to 2.1 update. If they fail to provide the update for all generic kits this sunday... its like SE breaking another promise to his costumers. In other words: they are ****ed... we are ****ed... everybody is ****ed,... conclusion: WE ARE ALL ****ED, SO WE ARE ALL HAPPY :-)
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
Just out of interest what ACTUALLY is global? Is it for all the smaller countries that don't have a specific generic firmware e.g Generic Malta?

Otherwise what is the point of any company to make an unbranded global firmware, or is it the main firmware SE base their OS on?
[XPERIA X10 General] Mac_33:
Whats up with the blank posts?
[XPERIA X10 General] pabling19:
I am really not sure but I think Global is the most generic FW. I think some countries like UK, Nordic, LAM etc have different laws that contradict with the Global so SE has to release different FW for each... That's what I think
[XPERIA X10 General] pato66:
I have a generic global, my phone software is 1227-4612, and file system version is 1227-4607, is the same in the generic nordic?, that is the question.
[XPERIA X10 General] Sighx:
All I know is GLOBAL consists of most countries not in Europe.

I.e : Canada ): *DAMIT
[XPERIA X10 General] Samberoony:
no one is in the irc :(
[XPERIA X10 General] pato66:
but if my phone software and files soft ware are the same of the generic nordic version, i can will have 2.1, or not?
[XPERIA X10 General] phoneguy 4567:
I love the comments on the SE blog post announcing 2.1 :). Meh & 2.1 is obsolete are among my favourites.

The more I look at the list of improvements the more I can't understand why the update took that long, other then the obvious SE are idiots.
[XPERIA X10 General] alex.under:
Exactly!!!
[XPERIA X10 General] irl_x10_user:
This is why we need the build.prop and default.prop from someone who has a generic nordic setup :-) Compare them, figure out what is different and then we may have an idea about what to do!
[XPERIA X10 General] kloud_:
Time taken for incorporating the improvements is what everyone is wondering about...!! :p

hopefully... SE won't sc**w-up again...!! :rolleyes:
