i think i know why we can't rebrand the phone by just copying the original rogers file and paste it back in the folder. We changed the firmware of the phone by downloading the firmware on the phone and changing the file name of the new firmware to match it. The new firmware that's on the phone i'm 100% sure doesn't have the same file name as the one we changed it to. So in order to get the phone to flash without having to dl. we have to some how figure out wat is the original file name of the firmware that is on the phone. and change the new firmware file name to match that instead of just copying the original firmware name of the rogers file.
example: the name of the file we changed it to FILE_277286594_1270622078000_1268290408000_277286592_16629674_INFILE_LONGTERM and that's probably the fw name of the rogers firmware. so it probably have no problem flashing the file on to the phone if you were still on the rogers firmware if you simply rename the new firmware files to that. but however once you flashed the phone's fw to something else. the fw file name is probably no longer that and it's something else. ie FILE_xxxxxxxx etc, so when it attempts to repair or update, pcc or seus will look for the file FILE_xxxxxxxx and it'll notice it's not there so it'll attempt to dl it.
that's what i think is preventing us from rebranding/changing the firmware of the phone. i've sent lolly a pm asking if he has the original file name for the uk files. Also hoping those that managed to somehow get the repair option in SEUS can you copy down the file names of the 2 files and post here before you rebrand it or flash to something else?

Ok maybe I am retarded but how do you get the phone to get into the update mode?
I followed the steps shown in the software update window (turn off phone, remove battery, then turn back on while pressing back key etc..) but it won't go past the Prepare step???
What am I doing wrong???
Thanks...
*edit... Never mind. It took a few tries and it finally worked.

Ha ha thanks! I'm loving this phone right now! Have a hard time putting it down. Been downloading the staple free apps and just messing around learning my way around the Android OS. My biggest gripe right now is the automatic screen lock, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to turn it off. Maybe not possible (hard to believe, but you never know)?
Anywho, I am ready for the .16 firmware though. I'm not a fan of the default keyboard, and I wouldn't mind better lowlight pictures and audio quality either. Awesome phone though.

Hi Guys
Wondering if you can help out. I have a X10i from Orange UK, I tried to debrand it earlier today and everything seemed to work well. As I was in a hurry to go out I have noticed that I downloaded the X10a Generic firmware instead of the X10i Uk Generic firmware. When I go into the phone it is showing as X10a, I have tried the repair function in an attempt
to change the FW to X10a but I receive an error message asking me to check my internet settings.
I have removed and re-installed SE pc companion, but the same message appears. Any suggestions would be welcome, thanks in advanced.

auto screen lock can be adjusted in the settings under Sound and Display. I liked the default keyboard, but it had the issue of not letting me see my phonebook entries when I tried to type an SMS in landscape. I switched to the HTC keyboard and everything's fine now. HTC keyboard has better autocorrection/spellchecking/prediction too. You should install it and try it out.
I also want the .16 firmware.. and hope it comes soon for the x10a. sound quality for me has been pretty good? What's wrong w/ yours?
