no need to do claim insurance... you just need to follow the directions closer..

push the files like this

do the same for custom.img.... ( just replace the word "flash_image" with custom.img and repeat ^^)

then type

adb shell [hit enter]

/system/bin/flash_image misc /system/bin/custom.img [hit enter]

then follow the other link <- actually dont follow that other link.. just download amons recovery from the link then boot to fastboot and in cmd type

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] keineahnung1:
hi,

i own a X10 mini pro.

I got i from e-bay with T-Mobile branding.

I thought that I could update to 2.1 and debrand at the same time.

My Idea was to first unbrand my Phone by changing the build.prop to the unbranded German and updating via SEUS.

Whenever the Update to 2.1 would be ready for germany I could then update to 2.1.

I got it as far as installing the UK generic build.prop and installing UK generic but, as I live in germany, i would be interested in the german Image. Just replacing the Number in the build.prop does not work.

Does anyone here have any x10 mini pro build.prop from germany?

Greetings
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] keineahnung1:
Hi, I just walked to my local hardware store and pulled the file from one the phones there.

In case someone is interested I will attach the file.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] tsc.smith:
Hi I live in germany too. I have tested the debrand method to replace the build.prop with the original german one that you attach. I get everytime the same error from SEUS and PC Companion that I have already the latest firmware. So far so good. But Iam missing the installtion button which appears when I have the original T-Mobile build.prop...

Can you verify me that the debranding works with your phone and you build.prop?

Thanx in advance.

[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
Hi all,

I've just finished proving that this works on my own phone and wanted to share..

I started with UK Generic 1.6 firmware.. and tricked my phone into thinking it was Nordic to get the Nordic Combined 2.1 upgrade (following "1 click rooting")..

Then I thought to myself.. sh!t.. how do I get 2.1 Generic UK when that comes out..!!!..

Done some reading and thanks to thanss (!) I've just done the following and confirmed that I now have World Generic 2.1

I used "Super1click" root method to root my 2.1 (you need 32 bit java from what I've read) and switched the USB debugging off and on a few times during the process.. and it worked. (I used 1.5.3 shortfuse and have attached the zip file now below)

Then using root explorer I edited "build.prop" from within the system folder.

I changed

ro.semc.version.cust=xxxx-xxxx

and

ro.product.name=X10_xxxx-xxxx

I changed the xxxx-xxxx to 1232-9897 (World generic)

saved the settings and exited from the file.

I also changed the ro.semc.version.cust=xxxx-xxxx file in...

/etc/customization/settings/cust.prop

saved and exited.

Then I switched the phone off and on again..

Then off one more time..

Then I used SEUS...

It will say that you have the latest software (because you do!).. but if you do a repair then it will replace your current one with the one associated with the codes you entered...

and bingo.. job done..

CODES here..http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=826875

Make sure you use the first of the codes for your brand/region.

Obviously this only works with firmware that has been released into SEUS.

UPDATE - IF SWITCHING BACK TO A REGION THAT YOU WERE PREVIOUSLY ON YOU WILL NEED TO DO THIS...

(Courtesy of ARKEDK's 1.6-2.1 method!)

Clear out your db folder in either PC Companion or SEUS, which ever one you use.

Press your Windows Key+R or type "run" in your start menu.

Then insert the path to what ever program you use and press enter.

Then delete the folder named with numbers in it.

SEUS db folder can be found here:

Code:

%programfiles%\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\db\

PC Companion db folder can be found here:

Code:

%programdata%\Sony Ericsson\Update Engine\db\

Reboot your phone and use SEUS to re-install your phone to 2.1.

Upgrading from 1.6 to 2.1 - this method was the one I used.. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=824711
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
Or you could just run x10 Flash 2.1 Final + Global World Firmware 2.1. But at least you have shown you can just change the codes in the build.prop so you can get your regions FW. Cheers. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
You could.. but this method is repeatable for any available 2.1 firmware.
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
Yeah, just edited my post as you posted that.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Hmm now I know I will definately be able to get uk version of 2.1 when its released this is very tempting to try....

Hmmm

I wouldn't be so bad if we just had dates set in place or just a rough estimate. The lack of no news from them is giving me itchy fingers and annoyed.

How much time do they need, I mean no of us are getting any younger lol!!!!

Thanks for all your work btw guys your are truely legendary :)
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Although you have gone into much more detail, provided links etc this sounds very similar to what I suggested to su_007 on the 2nd of this month, page 810 of the 2.1 discussion / news thread.

I would post a link but I'm using xda on my phone, here's copied and pasted text;

****My best guess is ask someone with a different fw to nordic and get the numbers ( the same ones that you used to do the nordic method ) but for that country and try running a repair on seus or pc comp.

This is only a guess and accept no responcibity if it goes horribly wrong.

Not trying to take any credit or the wind out your sail so to speak, just thought id note it.
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
Well at least no one one has to trawl through 810 pages now to find it. ;) And now we know it does actually work thanks to iceman. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] dundun1701:
I tried your method, but SEUS keep saying that i have the lastest FW and there are no Install button, only Finish button appear.

PC Com say that cannot download software for my fone.

Im stucking :(
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Ah yes, how easy it is for usefull information to get all jubbled up with all the other crap.

I'm glad it works, congrats on proving it does iceman.
[XPERIA X10 General] kiki_tt:
this is a much easier way :) I think ...

In theory it involves only two major steps

1. change the product code...ie the region via [ 1 root access]

2. connect to Sony Update service :):) ...so simple....:D:D

Just curious.

Hi - Won't work.. if the firmware was in SEUS then the regular Indian Generic phones would get it when they tried to upgrade.
[XPERIA X10 General] adeyb:
Just a head's up, if you want to re-root, you need to use SuperOneClick 1.5.1 NOT 1.5.3 - It won't work with X10 (I tried it by mistake and it doesn't work, and I read around here the same... somewhere...)

If it loops, click the 'debug' on X10 and it will evenutally root.

Trust me, it works!!!

Just wondering if it's possible to use this method to "switch" your X10i back to the correctly labelled X10a and consequently prevent any problems with SEUS or prevent you having to flash the phone again when updates are released??

Question for UK generic users.

I flashed from a 2.1 world generic back to a 1.6 UK generic using flashtool and then let SEUS upgrade me to UK 2.1(I know about build.prop but you'll understand why I did it this way in a moment).

When I flashed to 1.6 I checked my version details on service menu. Nothing strange. Country - UK customized , Build R1A014. Then I connected it to SEUS and it upgraded me to 2.1 UK version -around 154.6mb I think. But now when I go to the service menu. It says for file system version - world......WTF! No mention of UK anywhere. Also reason I did this was because I got fed up of waiting for UK 2.1 release and flashed to global 2.1 and yesterday when I learnt that UK 2.1 had come out I wanted to switch back, and I did the build.prop changes as in this thread but got exactly what I have now.

So am I on UK 2.1 considering that when I downloaded world 2.1 its was over 160mb but this is smaller?

What about all you UK upgraders do you have the same info in your service menu?
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
Hi - I had problems switching back to UK also.. (From Global).. then realised that I needed to delete the db folder within the SEUS program file directory (I have updated the OP now to show how to do this).. anyway.. the file system is work but the customisation version is UK.. so it will be slightly different - for example I now have the UEFA app..
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
Yeah I deleted the db folder before running SEUS. Also I have uefa app as well, but my main issue is that when I go to the service menu, H-B-B-H-B-H-H-B, I cannot find anything that says its a UK firmware apart for the UK code 1235-7379 but it says "File System Version" - WORLD(followed by numbers. Im finding this part confusing.

I got the ufea app which I didn't have before when I used 2.1 flash tool. The main thing is it all seems to work and I think is probably faster than before.

Could anyone offer an explanation why its still showing as world though?

Thanks for everyones answers and help so far, appriciated.
