If you're referring to the network settings which the phone lists as available, the only operators listed are Optus and Virgin.

Other than that I haven't noticed any other operator specific logos/settings.

G = GPRS

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] zanndoth:
pabling19,

you don't need the 1.6 build.prop to reflash. Just use the FlashTool and F/W attached in 1st post to get to 1.6 first. Once you're already on 1.6, then u edit the build.prop to your country/operator code.

Or, if 2.1 version for your country/operator is already available, just edit the build.prop in 2.1 and use SEUS.

HELP!

I did exactly what was in the first post and everything went smoothly until I got to the part where I can flash to 2.1 through SEUS. According the SE's website, the update is available for my model, 1238-8729. I tried updating but SEUS and PC Companion won't allow me to download/repair (the buttons are not there!!!) Is SE just trolling us telling the update for our kits are available? Haz anyone confirmed that the guide worked? *SIGH*

EDIT:

The technique is to delete the contents of /progfiles/SE/update service/db before opening SEUS (it would be nice if this instruction was in the first post). Updating to my phone's native 2.1 FW now...

It takes awhile for the phone to bootup after u flashed or upgraded via seus. This will usually takes a few minutes. However, your phone will still appear laggy for half an hour or so(including wifi & internet access), its normal. if after half an hour and it still lags, restart ur phone.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] zanndoth:
drecxz,

are you still on 1.6?

when u sync with SE(or google, etc), did all your previous contacts get copied over? if not, then data at your sync location is empty. try verifying that first.

reflash to 2.1 again, but this time delete the content in this folder so that it forces SEUS to download a fresh copy of the latest firmware.

>> \Program Files\SE\Update Service\db

make sure u change your built.prop to your local setting first(view 1st page for more info)

good luck.

philalerts,

dud you delete the contents in "c:\Program Files\SE\Update Service\db" including all subdirectories? if you don't do that, seus will flash the last 2.1 version that you have updated before.

radz,

the '1', part is for you to select the type of device. only do that if u're using the older version of fhashtool. of not, just follow the on screen instruction if any.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Johev:
Thank you all for a wonderful topic. I can say that this is the safest way for me (an inexperienced user in Android (still loyal to the dark side WM :)) to debrand update this wonderful little device (my wife enjoys it a lot).

I did a small variation of what is recommended in the 1st post, which I would like to describe shortly if someone wants to try it too (just did it so it is verified by me).

1) I have updated my X10 mini pro (U20i) through SEUS to 2.1 (Spanish Vodafone) as it is suggested in the 1st post.

2) I have connected to android market and downloaded z4root (excellent application that makes root so easy) - no need for PC just 1 click root on the phone

3) install root explorer and grant root permission

4) this is the variation part - I DOWNLOADED the UK_build.prop from here "GUIDE: Mini Pro (U20) change to any firmware (generic\debrand)" and replaced it with the one I've had on the phone (after granting overwrite permission on both build.prop.

5)If you reboot your phone you will be stuck in a loop of Sony Ericsson letters, so just go ahead and delete "c:\Program Files\SE\Update Service\db" including all subdirectories" as is said in the post above mine.

6) Initiate SEUS again and follow the procedures to install again the firmware.

7) SEUS will download the UK 2.1 firmware and you are ready to go.

VERY EASY, and in my opinion very safe. No need to type commands in cmd.

You just need a PC with SEUS on it, 2 applications from Android Market and spare time.

Good luck to you all, and thanks for all the help (just reading this was enough to understand how things work).

Hello,

i just would like to downgrade to 1.6. So i need a German 1.6 Version for X10 mini pro. Can i use the "U20i NL 1.6."-File from the first post, because this is multilingual? So i only have to set the language to german? If i can't use this, is it possible to download somewhere the german 1.6 Version or can anybody upload this?

I'm realy in trouble, becouse after the update my girlfriend is crying all the day that she don't want the new Version 2.1 any longer. So, thats the reason ;)

I would be very Thankful for help.

Matze

Sorry about my low written-english skills.:p
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] zanndoth:
Matze,

I'm not familiar with the German version of the OS or interface, however, the english version do have support for other languages. The only thing different would be the keyboard layout. SO try look around if you can find any information regarding the keyboard layout. If it can be changed, and if you can get the files to replaced it, then it shouldn't be an issue.

Again, this is just a theoretical assumption. It could be wrong. So to play it safe, you should just go to your SE or Mobile Operator support and ask them to downgrade to 1.6 for you.

PS: SE really needs to provide an option to downgrade the OS officially for those who doesn't like what 2.1 has to offer.

:D

Can anyone help, I have a U20a Telstra (Australia) mini pro, I downgraded to 1.6 when my update became available according to the sony blog.

My SI is 1238-9150

I installed 1.6 u20a firmware and edited the build.prop for my si number, but neither pc companion nor the update service will let me update, even trying to 'repair' tells me there is no new software available.

I have since reinstalled windows and have tried again but to no avail so don't think the problem is there.

Tried safe mode and turning off the firewall

Am I missing something simple?

Ok FIXED

This bit f'd me up

3. Go to this forum to locate the code for you county/operator. Its something like xxxx-xxxx. Note, its not the one that start with cdfxxxx-xxxx. Its the set of numbers after that.

Apart from that, great guide, thanks heaps :)

I had the set of numbers after that but the one I needed WAS the cdf number, and no I didn't get another countries update that way, I've got all the Telstra crap installed!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] zanndoth:
Bulkatos,

correct me if i'm wrong, but i think your path is not right (destination or target. check both). assuming that your java installation is correct (since u can run flashtool). what i did when i use that to extract is, i copy the files over to the same folder where the convertTool is located. give it a shot and tell me how it goes.

disturbedDRAGON666,

When the 2.1 update first came out in the country i live in, the cdf number does not work when i try to update. I had to play around till i got the right set, which is the numbers after the cdf nuber. Strangely however, after i managed to update, the number i used we reverted back to the cdf numbers. SO i guess that one is specific to operators while the other is specific to countries.

donetus,

There're 2 ways to get to 2.1. If you've read the 1st post, it list out everything there. But just to summarize, you can get to 2.1 either via SEUS or Flashtool. Using flashtool means you have to get your 2.1 rom from other sources. By SEUS, means u're getting your ROM from SonyEriccson. The suggested source is to get from SE directly unless you prefer other sources. Read the first post for detailed instructions.

[G2 and Desire Z General] Will_nonya:
Ok so I’m a Touch Pro 2 (Tilt2) owner and long time WinMo user considering a switch to the G2 and Android. Is the G2 a worthy successor to my venerable TP2?

About me:

1.	I’m an admitted Rom addict and occasional cook

2.	I’m not an “App for that” type of guy

3.	I’m primarily a business user and mainly use my phone for exchange mail, tomtom, bing, MP3 and Freda ebooks reading.

What I like about WinMo:

1.	Flexibility

2.	Customizable, I have 4 WinMo phones in my house all with different UI’s.

3.	Good core capability

4.	Conversational exchange mail, separate inboxes for pop mail accounts.

5.	HTC Sense

What I don’t like about WinMo:

1.	Poor performance, slow

2.	Recent builds are more attractive but largely unreliable. The ROM makes all the difference, stock ROMs are generally crap while cooked roms generally look great but don’t overcome the core issues with the OS.

What interest me in the G2:

1.	It felt great in my hand, solid generally well built, hard to believe its heavier than the TP2.

2.	Screen looked fantastic

3.	Very snappy performance for the short time I used it.

What concerns me about the G2:

1.	The keyboard hinge. What were they thinking?

2.	The keyboard itself. It seems a step down from my tp2.

3.	Will the device be fast and stable over the long run? Judging from the post on XDA it’s hit or miss whether you get a good one or not.

4.	It hasn’t been rooted yet (remember I’m a ROM flashing addict). I don’t really like the android version of sense but I’d like the option of choosing 

5.	Is android really any different from WinMo? My experiences have been hit or miss, mostly miss.

6.	Is android going down the same road as WinMo where the user experience will be dictated by the OEM or their choice of cooked ROM?

I’ve had a good time with WinMo since I first laid hands on my Blue Angel but is it time to try something new? If so should that be the G2?

Anyone who has made this switch or something similar or if you just have some constructive advice I’d certainly appreciate it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] papeshfoo:
My last phone was the HD2 and I loved the easy customization that came with the cooked roms, but my G2 is a BEAST!

I haven't had any of the problems that many people have with it, so I guess I got lucky. Android takes some getting used to coming from WinMo, but it was worth the switch to me.

My best advice to you is, take it for the 14 day test drive(30 in cali) and see if its for you. If not, return it and wait for the HD7 that is coming out in a few weeks.
