159159 - can you check if 3G baseband works?
Alright well bad news (at least for me haha) but here goes
the x10a version (at least the one i got from rogers) runs on [...] 1900/2100 (frequency).
the x10i version runs on [...] 1700/2100.
Now i just went to windmobile and tried one of their sim cards to see if it would work because they use both the 1700 and 2100 and you know what, it doesn't as it shows me as "Away Zone" even though it should say "Home Zone".
So even if people were to flash their firmware, the frequency will be limited to the hardware. Guess i have to return my x10 at rogers for a full refund...hopefully they will still take it in after the flash and unlocking haha.
If anyone knows any good users selling x10i on ebay or other websites, let me know thx =)
edit: btw i live in Canada.

Which province are you in? I'm in SK/AB weekends and I'll be travelling to Europe at the end of May. I can get an X10i if you are interested.
Btw 3G works on the unbranded X10a, even though the model reads as X10i. Just checked this today.

159159, it doesn't work that way.
If you want the X10 to work on Wind Mobile, you would need to buy the X10 version with the correct bands. Flashing a firmware with the international version would not enable those two bands. The bands are hardware dependent. X10a would always have the correct bands for Rogers, Telus, Bell even if you flash to a X10i firmware and vice versa.

Hey Lollylost100, any success with grabbing the X10a generic firmware and getting it posted? Not trying to push you, just wondering.
Thanks for all the effort!

That's great news based on what you guys have said about X10a flashed with X10i firmware. In that case, do we still need the X10a firmware upgrade? What drawbacks are there with using X10i firmware on X10a if 3G works and you get the updates from the new firmware?

Could you post a list of all available regions for the x10 firmwares?
I am wondering if there is a spesific firmware for Norway, or if it is the same as in UK.

Generic HK downloaded, will upload after school.
Generic UK has all languages in it.
Look on Google for showing hidden and system folders
