@moogoo
Already installed the HTC keyboard...much better than the default in my opinion (though I really like the left/right arrows on the default one). As for sound quality, I was really referring to the earpiece quality, as in when on a call. I feel like there was some background noise when I was talking to people. Nothing horrible, but it was there. Not sure if that is the "audio quality" people are reporting gets upgraded though. Used a stereo bluetooth headset to listen to music yesterday and that sounded just fine.
I've experience a tiny bit of laginess here and there too, which may or may not be fixed by the new firmware. Fingers crossed. Still love the phone though.

Question, i have not yet bought the x10 but with my current phone w960 i cant use phone language English and typing language swedish, works in sms and mms but the phonebok don't sort it right (هن sorts like a and ِ like o) and هنِ is not present, worked well in my old w900 and previos "ancient" phones
any one nows how it performs in that case or can try it? and can i have english phone language and a SE/SWE keyboard/t9 installd or DO i have to use swedish language for the phone to get the right keyboard.

Many thanks for this tutorial Lollylost100
But I have the same problem than Spaceman27
I downloaded and installed the X10a Generic firmware whereas I have a french X10i, and now when I try to re install/repair X10a Generic firmware by SE PC Companion, I have the same message than Spaceman27 : impossible to download phone firmware, Check your internet settings.
It's as if SE PC Companion doesn't recognize the x10a firmware :/
Does anyone who has installed this x10a firmware was able to reinstall it later via SE PC Companion ? (as a hard reset but by SE PC Companion)
Thank you in advance for answers and help.
And sorry for my bad english :/

X10i TAC number is: 3594
1903 while the X10a has: 3594
2003. This means
X10a@X10i and vice versa will never be able to update through SEUS again.

Bad new for me, but thank you for the quick answer
However I succeeded
X10i@X10a because now I have the X10a firmware (with a X10i hardware I guess :/).
So I thought that doing the same manipulation as in your tutorial and replacing the X10a firmware downloaded by SE PC Companion by X10i firmware downloaded here is possible but apparently not...
The strange thing is that the step which block, is when SE PC Companion try to download original X10a firmware, not when it install the firmware (maybe it's the same thing here).

Debranding won't unlock the phone. It just flash your phone to a generic firmware just removing the customization of the operator.
