Ugh i went and rebranded my phone back to Rogers so I gould get the official Canadian 2.1 Update, but that was only when I thought that I was getting it yesterday!! :( Oh well gives me a chance for a fresh unbranding and root when it comes out. Although that may not be for another two weeks..... And no I'm not getting nordic 2.1 lol I'm too patriotic =P

Anyone have any info on the canadian release, bring other than, "sometime in november"? Jw, cuz that's the info I got.
[XPERIA X10 General] elvish:
Latest rumor i heard was Nov 8 but with Rogers who knows!
[XPERIA X10 General] Udonitron:
Rogers is bollocks!
[XPERIA X10 General] fuusuke:
How do i update from PC Companion? it tells me to connect in flash mode, then nothing happens after that and it just stays on the "Prepare" screen ._______.
[XPERIA X10 General] Souljaded:
Well finally got 2.1 working on my x10a !!

Hey all, word the point of the market widget? Am I missing something???

[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
Go to development section, there is a thread by bin4ry. It has 2.1 flash tool for both X10 versions
[XPERIA X10 General] ksquared_au:
Aust - Just performed "The hammer of the Gods" update process and im a very happy boy. Worked like a charm.....now to add back all my apps.
[XPERIA X10 General] rkanwar:
Has anyone noticed that if your battery dies or you turn your phone off when you plug it in charge it doesnt switch on anymore ;-)
[XPERIA X10 General] harold899:
thanks...:):):):):)
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
I'm begining to get really quite impatient with SE UK, I thought uk would be amounst the first to get the update. Had no responce on facebook from them and I'm quite apprahencive with doing the 'nordic method' as I would really rather have the generic uk version.

It really is a ***** waiting.

Any news about 2.1 for uk please post genuine news as soon as you hear......
[XPERIA X10 General] mrtim123:
already done that ;)

Like the Scouts motto says, be prepared!
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
I've also found myself googling "time in sweden" so that I know when Rikard will come to work and update the blog :o

Its 12 41 am right now...

This weekend has passed by so slowly... Luckily I'm off to a halloween thing now so I can take my mind of it for a while :)
[XPERIA X10 General] npk21:
...........................

its 4:20 am at india....dunno about uk...just waiting for update!!:D
[XPERIA X10 General] ksquared_au:
09:35 Adelaide, South Australia.........nothing to report.
[XPERIA X10 General] hrm5023:
Hehe!

I like this thread lol!

I have started checking it too often and noticing the same thing in everyone else as well.

Its Monday October 5th, 2010 12:07AM in UK dont know if that means anything to SE... maybe it will be a morning update.... :o
[XPERIA X10 General] Nimche:
as we all are sitting here and hitting the darn F5 every now and then to see if there is an update, poor developers are putting stuff together to make sure its working. I have never ever got an update notification on my phone for any of the past versions either.

Even though I got the global generic 026 on now but I am not sure that I will get that notification anyways. I hope that SE really releases the update this time and tomorrow 25th, as soon as they open their beautiful eyes.:D
[XPERIA X10 General] Samberoony:
I'm in uk too. And I'm getting no sleep tonight. "must refresh page. Must refresh page. Must drink coffee. Must refresh page. Must refresh page. Must drink coffee." I'm android crazy!!!
[XPERIA X10 General] rkanwar:
Omg people im so psyched bout this update but i read that theres no fix to the in call volume :( plus we not going to get dlna until the subsequent update :) i dont even know what that does but hey lol, im gonna check for update now then sleep till the morning. Apparently we're going to get a notfication on our handsets but going to have to use SEUS
[XPERIA X10 General] Puck24:
okay, I'm off. Enjoy the wait.

its now 1:40 night here in scandinavia (norway/sweden) still 6 houers until workday begins for most people her ... just for info if some one wanna know that ^^ :D
[XPERIA X10 General] Hypercore:
It's 4:43PM here in Canada.
[XPERIA X10 General] Samberoony:
Awww crap, just bricked my phone :( :( >(
[XPERIA X10 General] Hypercore:
You cant brick your phone unless you accessed the bootloader, what did you do?
[XPERIA X10 General] Cablekevin:
I know people sure what time it is over here, 1:52, The best thing the x10 community brought me is the exitement, plus the diversity of people own the phone, i've been laughing my ass off during some threads overhere and i also did over at xperiax10 blog. The anger of the people, the desperation an such. Again XDA/SE devs done great work and still busy on work. I hope XDA will crack the bootloader soon, and i hope 2.1 gets released tomorrow. Thanks for a great time with the community, and i hope there are more great times to come.
[XPERIA X10 General] rkanwar:
Its 0.55 in the uk and no update yet, will be checking in the morning before uni.

Goodnight people keep us all updated :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Samberoony:
Putting on the black status bar. Rootexplorer crashed, the phone was fine. Then about 5 mins ago it ran out of battery, I turned it back on, but now it's stuck just saying Sony erricson. Help? Pc companion will recognise it but I cant mount it.
[XPERIA X10 General] Cablekevin:
Seus it.
[XPERIA X10 General] Samberoony:
Can't seus it, because it wants me to hold back then plug in, I tried but nothing happened.
[XPERIA X10 General] Cablekevin:
Try it serval times my phone had that too it was quite picky! :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Samberoony:
Ok I was going to try that but now my computer won't boot :(. Bad luck today. All I can use at the moment is my iPad, let's wait for that to fall apart!
[XPERIA X10 General] Desarth:
Generic GLOBAL - that's what my X10i says in the service menu. Will 2.1 be available for me first? I mean for that ROM.
[XPERIA X10 General] Cablekevin:
10/26/2010 - 2:15AM - Nothing via EMMA. (Just a quick checkup...)
[XPERIA X10 General] Hypercore:
Just a quick question...

I know that people with branded firmware will not get the first update roll out and will have to wait for their service provider (Example: Rogers) to release their own version.

But, will people with unbranded firmware will get the update regardless of what country / service provider releases it first? Lets say the UK releases the 2.1 update tomorrow and someone has an unbranded phone would they get the update?

I just want to know if I will get the update when it gets released in the UK (as from what I can see they are the ones who will release it first).

I rooted it with the 3 step guide on this forum.

Here's my phones info:

Firmware

"1227-4612_R2BA026 GENERIC"

Model Info:

"x10a"

Country: Germany

Brand: Customized

So will I get the update if it's released tomorrow or this week, or will I have to do a custom firmware flash?
[XPERIA X10 General] Desarth:
I don't think rooting has anything to do with when you will get the 2.1 update. It's more the version of your ROM. If you flash your phone with the generic shipped ROM found here on XDA too then you'll get the 2.1 update as soon as it hits the shelves.
[XPERIA X10 General] rkanwar:
I believe u might get it after uk as u have the x10a but then again not sure if that makes a difference
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
X10a/i doesn't really matter - depends on which firmware you have on your phone. You said that its Germany, so afaik when it releases in Germany (unbranded) you should get it as well. Probably better to flash to UK if you want it first

Personally, I flashed my Rogers X10a to Generic LAM, since I didn't want to potentially wreck it by flashing an X10i firmware
[XPERIA X10 General] nagrockz:
its 6 in the morning in india

26th of oct

[XPERIA X10 General] alankstiyo:
isn't annoying to wake up and nothing yet?

can't sleep cause the freaking update
[XPERIA X10 General] saketh321:
Well think about it, Sony wont release the update because alankstiyo on XDA wants it badly and that he cant sleep lol... So sleep normally lol.
[XPERIA X10 General] mrtim123:
damn you alan....go to sleep :)

seriously, how excited are we all! my wife thinks i am super lame - getting all excited about a new piece of software but i know im cool :cool:
[XPERIA X10 General] saeam:
Any one of u just noticed how fake and edited this photo?

Guys whom is going to sleep just go who is going to have fun just have fun and u will u get the update

The photo was nicly edited but small mistakes is not allowed when faking somthing, the lower 10% of the photo has totally different color than the rest and also the x10 canvas went out whike editing
[XPERIA X10 General] Hypercore:
Are you talking about the shadow?...

Why would someone go through all the trouble of photoshoping an application on the x10?
[XPERIA X10 General] Cablekevin:
As i see despiration growing among the X10 community (certain users) i've made an quick and dirty C# app (requires .NET 4.0).

Just an form with 2 topics refreshing to the last post of the thread, it's this thread and the Developpers thread, as we all know we cannot post in as long as were not devs so keep that in mind, just so you can stop pressing F5 and wait 60 seconds for a refresh.

I hope i can make some users happy with this piece of software, enjoy it, if you've got things that i can improve tell me i'd be glad to fix some things.

Screenshots:

Download link

Edit: For the ones who downloaded before 3:38, get the new zip this one fixed some errors for refreshing and such!

Edit 4:00

Added tray icon with notification of refresh of pages.

Fixed serval problems

Added a BOX Icon.

Added Twitter: SonyEricssonUK / SonyEricssonNL to pages.

Edit 4:30

Just added a checkbox for notifications or not, i thought it was annoying...

[XPERIA X10 General] HB2010:
Sucessfully updated to 2.1 - on UK three network. Simple process really nothing to taxing. Only one issue so far and I guess its a preference thing really and that is the APNDroid Toggle I use isnt working, I toggle the 3G off and within 10 seconds something turns it on again? strange. Loving the update though.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
When was that released or how long ago is probably a better way of asking? Iv been checking OTA all day and nothing.

I'm unbranded on .26 orange uk.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Did you use the 'nordic method' by any chance?
[XPERIA X10 General] Pgs3000:
in netherlands also no update yet :(
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
Hi Steve - I felt the same as you (hadn't rooted my phone either) until today when my impatience got the better of me...

Rooted using the one click root method, installed root explorer, amended the county settings as per the guide thread, switched off.. on.. off again, plugged into SEUS.. and bingo.. so easy.. so pleased I did..
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Just checked OTA and guess what? Nothing. Hopefully tomorow will be the day for UK or so I keep telling myself.

I think but don't quote me on this but I reckon the Dutch will get it day as UK, just a hunce
[XPERIA X10 General] PGRX10:
UK update will be no earlier than Wednesday IMHO
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
I am rooted and have been so for some time now, over a month maybe two I dunno.

I think if it isn't here but this time tomorow I'm gonna go with the nordic method.

I mean iv been patient enough, when I got the phone months and months ago I was told the update would be soon. I thought tbat would be in the summer. Then the september delays came, its been over 4 weeks since then and to be honest I'm getting pretty p**sed off with SE UK for taking so damn long.

I know its only an update, its just the broken promices and delays and missing feature of the update which should be standard. I'm sure most people still stuck on 1.6 can understand....
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Source and what's IMHO?
[XPERIA X10 General] PGRX10:
In My Honest Opinion
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Oh right thanks, I can't say I'm all that at hot internet abriviations.

Thanks tho :)
[XPERIA X10 General] frankie99969:
the vibe coming from www.twitter.com/sonyericssonuk does not sound promising, especially "we will have an exact date in a few days" F that! I really hope the people who have got 2.1 now dont forget about the delays and runaround from any of their PR and dont buy again. The only department i respect at se is the design department and i hope they do themselves justice and move on.
[XPERIA X10 General] sparkymarks:
most of the stuff i read pertaining to SEA/Sing's update refer to as early as 2nd week of nov to as late as end of this year.

couldnt wait and decided to give in and debrand to nordic (from singapore custom) using Bin4ry's flash method.

no problems whatsoever on my side. will play with it some more then post if anything unusual comes up

cheers to all you devs here! :)
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
100% agree, that Twitter response has been the same since Friday I also liked the earlier response "things are moving really fast, we will let you know very soon" fast my ass.

I'm never buying again, but I KNOW everyone else is giving empty threats as they will see the next device and gawp at its specs.
[XPERIA X10 General] mrtim123:
lol i remember this guy! looks like he was wrong hey :D
[XPERIA X10 General] Roberts#717:
Has anyone any info on when Australia is expected to get the update? thanks
[XPERIA X10 General] mrtim123:
the official update? no idea

an update of any sort? i did mine yesterday morning ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] Roberts#717:
oh ok, did you flash to nordic? are we able to get the official one when it comes out if we do that?
[XPERIA X10 General] mrtim123:
yeah kinda. i was on global generic before but i edited my default.prop file so it thought i was nordic. update was nordic update.

would not be a direct flash to the aussie delivered rom but im sure it will be able to be done. i dont know if ill bother though, this one is working well for me.
[XPERIA X10 General] Roberts#717:
Ok thanks for your help!
[XPERIA X10 General] mashuu:
THe Product Blog said Indonesia had the update but haven't been able to get it yet? :/

I have x10i Indonesia Customised.
[XPERIA X10 General] thunderpossuem:
SE AU says some time this month. i didn't wanna wait for optus after that though, so i went with the nordic update
[XPERIA X10 General] ColdSteel17:
Thanks alot :) That at least gives me something to look forward to and then perhaps a reason to break the nearest set of cutlery!! Lol Hope it comes out on the 8th! =)
[XPERIA X10 General] Roberts#717:
is the nordic update working ok with you? my phone is branded with optus as well
[XPERIA X10 General] patsinski:
No update yet in Greece, checked this morning.

By the way u r Slav, so don't use such geographical terms.

Or well then just say that partially GREECE have the update (India has it)

No troll here, just some people should not be provocative
[XPERIA X10 General] goth50:
Did You just instalt me, and my country on a forum for mobile phones because of Your political views??? Dudee i feel sorry for You. When i said that there is no update for greece and balkan, I said it because my Phone in Service menu under model info is like this:

Model X10i

Country Greece and Balkan (B)

Brand: Customized.

And pls i'm MACEDONIAN not Slav, so if you have any more issues about my nationality pls ask firs polite for more infro.

Sorry about this off topic but i cant stand politic trolling in this forum, mailnly because politics destroys our world
[XPERIA X10 General] prewed:
Any news about Germany release date?
[XPERIA X10 General] mith500:
haven't got the update yet...waiting for UK generic

is FB integration done by default? or can we disable it...as I don't really want it.
[XPERIA X10 General] curious_yellow_eyes:
I'm guessing I should be checking by SEUS for the UK update, as when I debranded I went down from 026 to 024, and it was a good fortnight before my phone informed me there was an update available!
[XPERIA X10 General] patsinski:
I am a politics hater my self so I am with you on this.I have to admit that I did not know that the localization on the phone was like that since I am a nobie with that phone.That's why I thought you where provoking.In the end we all want to enjoy our xperias. If u feel macedonian and makes u happy and proud,be one.I am one as well. So issue closed ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] MagicTempest:
sorry for not reading the last few hundred pages, but are there any other firmwares released yet? OR is it still only nordic?

If the latter is the case we can hardly speak of an October release, can we?
[XPERIA X10 General] goth50:
Ok then :D Cheers mate drink a beer from me tonight :D
[XPERIA X10 General] patsinski:
Beer?Why not a scotch?:D

Let's hope we'll get our update today, fingers crossed SE

have you open www.sonyericsson.com/update ?

if it says that in november 1st, there's an update so try using SEUS. if it tells you that your phone is up to date just ignore it and install...
[XPERIA X10 General] MagicTempest:
Ok, thanks :-)
[XPERIA X10 General] ronniecross:
But doesn't every region say 1st November? I know the UK says 1st November, and generic UK hasn't been released yet (along with any branded kits)

On another note, I'm strongly considering jumping to 2.1 today, but a question to anyone who had problems with the market.... I did google this and searched the forums, but is there a fix, incase i stumble across this problem?
[XPERIA X10 General] Vtune:
What? So after a reinstall the update should be done to 2.1? I'm sorry but didn't read the last 200 pages yet :p I have a lot of work todo still so I think I will skip them ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] xeviro:
Singapore had release update.

http://www.facebook.com/notes/sony-...hone-to-the-new-software-upgrade/444929116228

But i don't know if this includes for those buying from operators.

And i don't know if you can only get this update from their store, or online.

I debranded to Nordic and update to 2.1
[XPERIA X10 General] MagicTempest:
And you say that you did get 2.1 this way?
[XPERIA X10 General] zoegiex:
yes. i've tried it and yeah i've got the 2.1

just try it. but if you already has the confirmation from SE in your country so just wait for the update then
[XPERIA X10 General] zoegiex:
yes...

and now my x10i in android 2.1 now
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
Hi Ronnie - I was apprehensive about goign for it, but..I did it yesterday and the whole process worked fine and all is good - with one exception - Can't bluetooth send files from my laptop to my phone now - works the other way round (Phone to laptop)...

Market works ok on my phone too.. I read somewhere that if you clear the cache from the market and then go back into it it will force a refresh and should work then (if you're having problems)..

Don't know anything yet for Belgium so will try it this afternoon :cool: Hopefully it works for me too.

And I'm happy that this thread is still alive and that everybody is so helpful :D

More info based on the comments there.

Singapore FW 2.1 News Update

I spoke to one of the customer service representatives. The update through the PC Companion software will not be available till the end of November. If your phone is still under warranty, the update to 2.1 is free.
[XPERIA X10 General] yasuraka:
Hi, My handeset was originally Orange UK, it has since been debranded to Generic Global. PCC and SEUS both told me I had the current software installed so I decided just to do a reinstall. What was given me after reboot was 2.1.

p.s Has the keypresses for the service menu changed for 2.1? I cant seem to get to the menu at all
[XPERIA X10 General] Infinity1988:
Doesn't work for Belgium, i just tried it and i still have 1.6.
[XPERIA X10 General] thunderpossuem:
Yeah it all works great :-)
[XPERIA X10 General] MagicTempest:
When I tried the reinstall option it wanted to download a 140MB software image. I thought 2.1 would be at least 160MB right?

Its in this thread somewhere, you know how on 1.6 it was M B B M, B M M B you know replace menu with Home, I cannot confirm this as I'm stuck on 1.6 still.

Someone also mentioned another menu by pressing *#*#*#* and a load of numbers, can't remember which ones tho sorry

Tried just pulling out the battery ( no shutting down ) and wait say a min and then reinsert after say a min. That was said a few pages back and should in theory stop lagging.

Damn I wish I had 2.1

Read the update by country 2.1 in the general section, several have released now

It is *#*#4636#*#*,i guess it only works on 2.1,but anyway you asked for it and here it is.
[XPERIA X10 General] yasuraka:
Ah many thanks for that. Replacing menu with home worked a treat. Service menu seems to have had a tiny reshuffle since 2.1
