Firmware Updates for E10a

Tue, 31 Aug 2010 16:24:21 GMT

Hi, I have an X10 Mini unbranded, bought in Brazil, having the model number E10a, as I guess everyone in America continent has.

My question is, why do Europe get so many firmware updates and we just stay still? I'm saying that because as I was reading many forums about X10 Mini, I constantly seeing firmware updates, maybe I'm wrong, and the FW numbers differs from E10a and E10i.

So, my question is, FW 1.2.A.1.174 for the E10i is the same as 1.1.A.0.9 for the E10a? If they're both the same, no problem, but I don't think they're the same.

Thanks!

As far as I know, this will be first released to the European market, as Sony UK told the news and usually they go releasing updates for each region.

So if my concern about the firmwares are true, they might be reflected on the Android release too, hope not.

Thanks.

About a month and a half I received this update over the air 1.2.A.1.174.

I thought you should have at least 1.1.0.A.9, that's what came in my phone.

I live in Brasil, but my phone is unbranded.

Have you tried to update it via the Update Service?

Maybe that way you can get the update.

Basically I can not turn off the phone away from a PC.

That's bad. One time that happened with my phone, I thought it was dead. What I did was to plug it on the wall and let it there, even with no response from it, on the other day it was alive again. You can try to make a hard reboot.

I guess you need to hold the power button + the middle one.

I still didn't get the update to 2.1, and I hope it will not take longe to arrive in Brasil.

As soon as I get it, I post the file on that forum.

Cheers.

Man, this update came out already, it was still 2010 I believe.

Plug in you phone and use the software that Sony has to update it, if it says you already have the latest version, contact Sony support.

Thanks Jake, I already do a lot of steps, uninstall software on PC, install again, add the firmware with the repair option, etc, always say that I have the most updated version (1.6). Magically 4 days back I plug to the computer and tell me that have a update. I run the process and now I have 2.2xxx

I really I can´t understand what happen before. I try in differents computers and always the same message but now Im happy Thanks.
