yey,i am now nordic

basically followed xda link but had to frig it a bit. first i installed latest jre6 and did the environment variables fix. couldn't get devcon to work so i did the regedit search and placed the id into Deviceid.txt file but then the bat file didn't like it so i had to edit the bat file to stop it trying to use devcon. basically just deleted these lines

@cd DevID
@devcon hwids "USB\VID_0FCE&PID_ADDE" | grep VID | cut -d "\\" -f3- > ..\DeviceID.txt
@cd ..

then it worked!

off to update now

how do i know when the nordic flash is done ?

i went for deleting all user settings etc. only things i backed up were bookmarks and contacts. now starting to get programs installed again, nice to have a clear out actually and just install what i need, swype, esfile explorer and advanced task killer being the main ones ( oh ok and yes angry birds too :p )

good performance, was sluggish for the first 5-10 mintues, now its veeeery quick. had a quick go with camera , seems much better for indoor pics which was always a gripe of mine with the x10, plenty more playing yet though.

hey folks can someone tell me how to get the 2.1 update cause i connected it through the sony ericsson updater and it says i have the latest software

What country are you in and are you branded or unbranded

Ok. No. My phone is generic R2BA026. I get newest fw is already installed no matter what I try.

Turn your phone off, take the battery out for 30 seconds, then replace, switch it on and try again using SUES (not PC companion)

Either rebrand to nordic firmware as described in another post or wait till its available in your country - its only northern/north western europe at the minute - scandanavian/nordic countries

Hi all

My x10i is not rooted and had no intention of doing it either because i look at it this way, if sony wanted it rooted it would of came that way as standard But, Im damn tempted to do it just to get 2.1 using that nordic change. But however, i want to know changing it to nordic version will it make my phone any different in any way.. i.e. im in the uk and on o2 so will this make any difference?

any risks i want to know!!! lol
