This thread lives longer than how long time it takes to get bored of the update I think. I mean, two days after our update, the phone is not that excited anymore. ;-)

Sony Ericsson Product blog link down? Could it be something?
[XPERIA X10 General] liquidtensoion:
Yeah, hacked by the SE dev team for having to work this weekend.
[XPERIA X10 General] solid0snake:
That's Sony, they're not that bad with general support but stillt worse then every other brand.

SonyERICSSON on the other hand has the absolute worst product support ever since thats why i never would spend money for their products.

Luckily i got my X10 for free. Can't imagine what i've done if i had payed for it.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bourbon Brain:
Of course it is. It's a sign of the imminent failure that the SEUS update servers are going to experience as everybody rushes onward to 2.1 :p

I'm going to miss this thread.

We should start a new thread on Sunday as "Warm Welcome to 2.1 update" :D
[XPERIA X10 General] solid0snake:
I think its a metaphor. It took them several months to save those poor miners like it will take several months until we will se the 2.1 update. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Z3X:
This sote managed to handle "Update on updates" and the storm of comments afterwards. So this could be somthing else perhaps? I could perhaps just be speculating haha.

[XPERIA X10 General] Anandc:
To Sony Ericsson/Jeff/Rikard

Great News but Bad SE support. Sorry to say Mr.Rikard, I do know for a fact that you gave your best but please pass on this message to your head that it was a nightmare for many of X10 users. I know it's just an update but how long? we love your X10 so much and we paid for it not to wait for an update so long. As it's just an update, this shows how poor the support has been from your side. I honestly love Sony Ericsson phones and I have been buying them for years now but your guys have crossed the limits of not having a good support. Like seriously. After X10 I'm definitely going to think about my next phone with you as now the smartphone market has become huge and there are some companies which have been doing brilliant job and by that I mean keeping up the OS, features etc with the market. We don't expect any AMOLED screen or Retina display, we want a genuine loaded smartphone with good hardware specifications which keeps upto the current market standard and that should not be hard enough for a company who has been brilliant with smartphones for many years :)

I just want to close this by saying that do remember one thing in mind, we pay you for a quality product and service and so we hope to get that in return. I'm sure you would not like to see your money and time getting waste on an update :)

Hope this never happens again. Have a great weekend.

Thank you!
[XPERIA X10 General] Quarker:
I think I have a Nordic Generic. But how do I find out for sure ?
[XPERIA X10 General] mith500:
stupid questions guys...

why doesnt SE's x10 android phone have one firmware for all regions like the iphone does?

and no I am not an iphone fanboy....far from it.
[XPERIA X10 General] Hypercore:
When the update comes out will people with non-UK firmware be able to flash the files to our phones like we do with the 026?
[XPERIA X10 General] gubshi:
hey everyone,

been reading this thread since sunday now, and its kind of the reason i registered yesterday.

i check this addicting thread every now and then, from work, in the car, and after work. i like how partly some information slips through, or how everyone - including me- tried to get a working EMMA-access, chattet with the SE-support-guys and so on.

for my working time is now over for today and no "update your phone"-message popped up on my mini, it clearly must be broken, i thought.

now reading the update's coming sunday AND ON is a bit of relieve, now i can go on doing other things thinking its not coming until then.

though i have to check on that information, where its from and what pages i missed from this morning on :D

keep up entertaining me :-*
[XPERIA X10 General] I7redd:
Simple answer: They give the carriers total control over the firmware and what goes in it, and their end users none.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
I bet they chose nordic countries for the 1st rollout of 2.1 cos everyone seems to of flashed to generic uk, they did this their servers won't crash and if any problems occur they can sort it before the rest of the world get it.
[XPERIA X10 General] aussiesausage:
ok so its only nordic that gets it sunday? ( monday or something aussie time, no idea though )

how do i get a nordic ROM?

[XPERIA X10 General] Alexboychen:

Hi everybody,

Please can me tell a people, how I can find out, that I have a generatic x10=
[XPERIA X10 General] I7redd:
Hey there,

Thanks for taking the time to register here, and write such a nicely worded post.

We're here to entertain. ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] Findee:
And apple give neither carriers nor end users control over the firmware.

Brand: Customized

All these changes (originaly Dutch phone) have followed by rooting, debranding and stuff..

So what now?

greetings
[XPERIA X10 General] irl_x10_user:
It seems that build.prop and default.prop on your system contain all the info regarding software/version. If we can just find out the setting from someone who has a generic nordic build, that would be great!

I think if the brand is customised or does not say generic somewhere, you may have the wrong version. Some previous commenters have shown that the text for country is 'Generic NORDIC' so there probably is quite a specific version needed to get this update.
[XPERIA X10 General] Contrarian:
Correct me if I'm wrong but you should still be able to use the X10 Flashtool and Omnius to debrand/change the phones software.

If someone captures the update on Sunday, unless SE have patched things, it may well be possible to flash the 2.1 ROM on any handset, regardless of region.
[XPERIA X10 General] irTim:
Wow they really are going to bring this update out as late as they can:

http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/products/

so on the 31st in the evening is when it is going to be released!!
[XPERIA X10 General] shvyue:
Probably on Sunday eve, the se twitter will say something like:

We understand it is getting close but there are still hours left today. We'll give you more info when we have it
[XPERIA X10 General] gubshi:
yay, thanks!

lets see when germany gets it... :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Inferis:

[XPERIA X10 General] assangflexx:
First of all, we have to wait untill they drop 2.1 rom.

Second depends how the update is, someone will release a flash tutorial.

So which method is worse for the end user? Lockdown vs Overlord?

Hmm. Perhaps we can test this with a quick poll...

XPERIA Software Update

Friday, October 29th, 2010

Today I can confirm that we will start the roll-out of the Android 2.1 based updates for Xperia X10, X10 mini and X10 mini pro now this coming Sunday. The roll out will start in the evening European time.

So far I have received confirmation that the generic kits for the Nordic countries will be the very first ones out on Sunday evening and then there will be more kits coming already during Monday and then the roll-out will continue throughout the month of November.

As said earlier these updates will give you some features introduced by Android 2.1 and the Xperia X10 will also get HD-video recording in 720p with continuous auto focus.

The changes in user experience after the update is a mix of things added or changed going from Android 1.6 to Android 2.1 and things changed or improved by us directly.

As a re-cap – The key changes for the different products are the following:

Xperia X10:

• HD video recording with continuous auto-focus for high quality videos

• Upgrade of the Android platform to Android 2.1

• New back up and restore application, with extended content back up

• 5 homescreens for apps, widgets, shortcuts and folders

• Social phonebook which automatically syncs contact pictures from Facebook and shows when your friends are online

Xperia X10 mini and X10 mini pro:

• Improved Bluetooth functionality with support for sending and receiving pictures, contacts and more

• New backup and restore application with extended content back up

• Automatic synchronization of your contact pictures between Facebook and your phone book

• Improved ways of handling pictures, audio, text and numbers in your messages

• Upgrade of the Android platform to Android platform 2.1

In most markets, your phone will automatically let you know with a notification when the update is ready for your specific software version and then you will be guided to how to perform the update using the PC Companion software. In that process, because of this being a big update, you will also be guided through some steps to be able to backup personal data before the update and then restore it when the update is finished.

I'm asked my mom to buy me a brand new x10 from nordic countries,

she said "go better to watch sweden action movies" rofl :P
[XPERIA X10 General] Bennachie:
And so to sum up.

SE has atlast done the 'right thing' and come clean about the release date, something they could (and should) have done weeks ago.

Their representatives have covered themselves in incompetence and have failed to ansewr reasonable questions from the people who, in effect, pay their salaries.

Still, it will be out in the wild soon (SE Speak there SIC.) and all we can do is hope that it is as good as we have been led to believe over the last few weeks by SEs video releases - another poorly judged decision imho.

NOW all we need are definitive changelogs on updates so we can see what we are getting.

I wonder if my X10 will be able to sync contacts with my SE handsfree kit after Sunday? I shall have to wait because helpful Jeff@SEanswers failed to answer that one. If it does not I shall just have to continue to use my 2003 generation SE phone 'cos my 2010 flagship device cannot cope! :mad:

Isn't progress wonderful? :cool:
