I went to my local SE service centre this morning & he had the latest R2BA023 FW on the EMMA sytem. After he wiped everything off the phone & then he flashed the X10, I noticed in the Service Info menu that the Country had changed from Greece to Greece and Balkan (b) & the Brand had changed from Cosmote to Customized. Also my Customization & Content Versions had changed. With this new FW, my Auto Internet Settings are now working and now there's also a Chinese & Korean keyboard besides the Standard, Android & Japanese keyboards. Battery so far seems to last much longer but I'll have a better indication regarding battery consumption once I charge it overnight and test it for at least 24 hours. Phone feels faster & more responsive but I'll need to set it up first and put it thru it's paces tomorrow. My Playnow works but Creatouch wasn't installed so I'll just download it. On the downside I lost the trial version of Wise Pilot I had which I hadn't activated yet as it wasn't on the 023 FW, but I really don't care. All in all I'm happy so far with this FW. I'm looking forward to see what other improvements future FW updates will bring.

@Mano82 since removing seems better & marks less easily. The plastic thing is pointless as it scratches esay
I seen someone on You Tube removing it & afterwards he tried scratching his display with scissors & he could not
I am loving my X10 though am fearful of dropping it so I need a good case. Anyone know best place?

Here are my findings from OTA update VS SEUS update
Generic UK R1BA016 > OTA R2BA020 - Phone doesn't return to idle state correctly
Generic UK R1BA016 > OTA "Root" R2BA020 - Phone doesn't return to idle state correctly
Generic UK R1BA016 > OTA "Root"R2BA023 - Phone doesn't return to idle state correctly
All the above, I have found the phone not to sleep correctly and battery life because of this suffers.
Generic UK R1BA016 > SEUS R2BA020 - Phone sleeps correctly
Generic NCB R1FB001 > SEUS R2BA023 - Phone sleeps correctly
The updates by SEUS, seem to be a massive improvement over the OTA updates they are also much larger in size. This would suggest that a number of files are update unlike the OTA update.
Using the SEUS update I am able to get around 1 / 2 days from my phone now. However, using the OTA update I was lucky to get around 12/13 hours from my battery.
I hope you find this interesting.

did an update on my female friends phone today, she did a OTA yesterday and today pc-companion wanted to update, so i did, but it had the same version afterwards 020 as she had updated OTA yesterday, she complained over the battery. maybe a SEUS will solve it, BUT now we spent hours setting upp new keybord handcent themes and varios wearther apps... a reset and reinstall is a pain in the ass

It's the age old scenario where a full reflash is better than an OTA update.

@Mano82 R2BA024 is the update for Vodafone UK users
Not sure about the R2BA025 update mind

I think it was R2BA024 a user on XDA talked about, My mistake that i thought its R2BA025
Someone said that these updates 024, 025 etc are actually same, not big difference & are regions related. Real changes can we expect in R2C series

And i'm fearfull of removing the plastic thing. If real screen gets scratched, it is costly to replace it
I've not scratched my "screen with the plastic thing" yet, Yeah i'm too carefull

Can other T-mobile users in the UK confirm that we are still on R1FA014.
I've had mine since it came out and never had an update. others on this forum seem to be getting updates all the time.
I Check for updates every other day.
