As title states, is there ? I know I have PLAY& X10, but as for the X10 there still no Global FW for 2.3, as also for PLAY, so just thought...how is the situation on NEO/ARC, to at least hope for something.
*Friends please do me a favor, if they do have it, i could continue to check if it possible to port it to X10 FW.

Hello,
I just buy an xperia Arc S.
But this one has an ORANGE (operator telecom) firmware.
I want to know if someone can upload a standard French firmware.
Can root and install it like xperia Arc??
Thks a lot
Bonjour et voila
Just create an account with this service and flash your phone with their tools.
I have no idea if the Arc S is rootable or anything (I've got the first Arc), but at least it'll be unbranded from then on.
It's this firmware you're looking for btw: 4.0.1.A.0.266 (Sony Ericsson Xperia arc S) Generic Trade France (2.3.4)
http://www.wotanserver.com/en/sony-ericsson/se/xperia-arc-s-lt18/debranding-flash
just root phone and change cda to france generic and then use seus.
how did you posted in developer forum with no post at all
hello
thk for your answer willaaam
i try what you say and it's ok
I'm looking for a nordic version of the form for xperia play.
I'm going to sell my baby and I want to bloat it with region specific apps .
I've found this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1269845
But the links dead. Do anyone have another one. Dosen't care if the firm is old. I can update OTA afterward.
Sincerely
Is it possible to reinstall the completely stock rom for the xperia Arc S after I've unlocked my bootloader and tried several custom roms? like Miui and CM.
Thank you

Yes, you can install stock rom without any problems.
And where can I get it? the links I saw in a different thread are all broken...
If anyone who has the Rom could host it somewhere I would appreciate it

You can use flashtool programm you will find the firmware in the thread just search it and flash whatever firmware you want you can't update via ota/pc if bootloader is unlock(first you must locked again) or if you change something from /system
i hope i help you.
Thing is I dont have the fw I want, only have custom roms, and all the links are broken (they were from multiupload), so I would like someone to upload them again.
Thank you all for your help

It looks useful for all who's lookin for the original ROM.
Thanks guys, that worked perfectly.
One last question is Waton server always updated? I mean do they supply all the new roms? ICS is coming out soon for the xperia arc s
I have wiped all my system & dont have backup.
I Have Xperia Arc S LT18i
SI 1254-9037
But could not find the exact firmware sor SI 1254-9037 (this is Saudi Arabia sales item)
I found below ones to download, whic one will be proper for Turkey? And will it be a problem to flash?
4.1.B.0.587
Generic Trade Central Europe 1 (4.0.4) (1254-2716)
or
4.1.B.0.431
Generic Trade Turkey (4.0.4) (1254-2233)
Central Europe is made up of the following.....
Germany
Poland
Czech Republic
Slovakia
Switzerland
Austria
Slovenia
Hungary
But it will work on your device (its the update to 4.1.B.0.431)
If you want your fone back to original then stick with the Generic Trade Turkey file as Im not sure if you've had the update over there yet
Thank you wolf_b
indeed, this phone comes from Saudi Arabia
SI 1254-9037 (this is Saudi Arabia sales item) But also have Turkish language option.
But I couldnt find anything original about it, neither gingerbrea nor ICS.
So I just want to be sure, if anything negative will be happen if I flash a different SI distribution.
This is the question: If no problem, I downloaded Generic Trade Central Europe 1 (4.0.4) (1254-2716),
this is the latest ICS update of Sony. I guess it will also have Turkish Option!
What do you suggest?
Hello experts!
I really need everyone's help, I did update my xperia arc s to ics, except that my smartphone was full of problems so I need a lot of his original rom. I'm from Brazil, I need rom lt18a 4.0.1.a.0.266 Brazil. Please help me, I'm desperate, I can not stand the lags and bugs from my mobile
www.google.com
I've googled and found nothing, actually, I thought, that was only for lt18i, except that this does not suit me. I need Lt18a due to my carrier. Please, if someone help me
Did you find something? I'm searching for this too, but found nothing...
EDIT: Solved the problem with an ICS LT15a Baseband. Works great with my carrier (Claro).
My XPS is 1257-6713. I assume this is the number that means no brand italian version of the XPS.
I was wondering, how to return to the stock firmware that has the same number as my device? Is there any easy way to do it?

I'm locked and I never unlocked. Anyway, I did that many times, if I have the generic world firmware on and then repair, I will get a repaired generic world firmware, I won't get the italian firmware.
Sorry, I confused SUS with SPCC. So if I repair with SUS I will get the original firmware? Will try tomorrow and report back.

wait... u want the italian firmware??
i'm not really sure if update service can give it to u
u should find a .ftf file of the italian version then flash it into your XS with flashtool
(actually i cant really get y u bother getting the italian version)
I supposed u have rooted your phone and have CWM
if u still want to try update servcie
remember to back up things becoz using update service will wipe your stuff

It's probably not a big deal but I think there is a reason why they put those codes in there. Maybe there are small hardware differences between different SI numbers, I don't know. Maybe that's what's causing those weird bugs on JB for people who updated using flashtool? I remember hearing back when I had the Ray that this was the case, but maybe I heard wrong.
Anyway, the main reason why I wanted to be able to do this was because I'm considering selling the phone, and wanted to know how to return it to it's original stock firmware version.

I dont think it is related to the region
and seems Xperia S only have two version in hardware
The Japanese version known as Sony Ericson Xperia NX (which dont have NFC function) and the LT26i we are using
those jellybean bugs are universal too
actually, those people use flashtool are usually becoz the jellybean firmware are not yet released in their country so they can only be obtained with flashing the ftf file in flashtool

I used the flashtool as well as the official JB hasn't released here yet, apparently for Sony Italy doesn't exist, and if it does, it comes after freaking third world countries.
Anyway, what's the point of the SI number then, if all the XS phones are identical?

lol I know that feel bro, those update usually release first in America and Europe. Italy are not supposed to be the slowest one.
(Well, some says Hong Kong (where I'm from) is supposed to be one of the slowest, but seems not really true in major update.)
I think different SI number of a rom indicate which input languages it provide in the Xperia keyboard is the main thing.
For example, they dont think u need to type Chinese in Italy, so u may not find the Chinese keyboard in your rom.
And i just flash a .211 recently, which i dont know where region it is for.This rom is lack of the Chinese keyboard. I could only flash it myself with recovery.
Maybe not just language thing all the time, some more stock settings that may suit you a bit more.
BTW, not all XS are identical. When it just release in 2012, Xperia S is known to have the yellow screen problem. (When the device overheat, the screen will show yellow patches in some part. This is a minor hardware failure) But sony offer free repair for those devices then, which replace it with a better screen. We can assume that all repaired XS and newer XS are identical now.
