Hi I bought a Xperia Arc S yesterday.
The provider is "Orange" (Switzerland).
I now want to remove the branding from the software.
What is the best way to do. I just want to remove this branding.
Thanks & Regards

Unlocking BL has nothing to do with debranding, as far as I know...
Its true, you are rights.

Sorry for digging out this topic...
Just to clarify: I'll debrand an Arc S from Vodafone Germany. Just flashing with a generic firmware will do the job? After that I can root/flash/supercharge it like mine?
arc s:
LT18i 4.0.2.A.0.62 Generic World:http://ul.to/gsfx4w60
arc:
LT15i 4.0.2.A.0.62 Generic Global World : http://ul.to/nq33zniu
lt15a usa:
LT15a 4.0.2.A.0.62 Generic USA: http://uploaded.to/file/f58llc72
there you go,
just choose ne for your model, flash it and your ready to go
Ok, I'll take a .42 version cause of rooting it. After that ICS and so on.

i think so, if you want to claim warranty you could always flas back to philippines firmware
Thank you Kistigun. I'll try flashing the new firmware from the nordic rom. Just one small question how can i backup the current philippine rom which is stil 2.3.3?
Hi everyone, i just bought a Xperia Arc and its currently running Android 2.3.2
My questions are:
1 - Which is the latest version update for Xperia Arc ?
2 - I tried to look for an update using the "Sony Ericson PC Companion" but it says that there is no avaible update. Why is it happening?
3 - The fact that my carrier is "VIVO" (From Brasil) means i can´t update my Phone?
4 - Is there any "Safe" (I know every way may brick your phone,i´ve flashed tons of custom roms on galaxy phones) way to update it to the latest version (or at least to 2.3.3 where i´ve seen some cool features) without breaking my 3G connection with my carrier ?
5 - I Know ICS is going to be released for our phones,but,will the update be Global or Carrier-by-Carrier like ?
Thanks in advance for any help/answers.
I will stay tuned here !
Flash with flash tool.
Debrand it with generic 2.3.4

Can i flash a "Global" Rom that works in every country,with every carrier ?
That would solve my issue,if theres any 2.3.4 (Which i found to be the latest version) rom (STOCK ROM,not CUSTOM) that i can flash safely.
Waiting for answers.
Where are you developers ?
Read the stickys.
Search for flashtool and read how to use it.
Then search for 2.3.4 generic world and flash it with tool above.

Yes it is safe.
Yes 3g works.

Thanks,again.
Last one,do you mind linking me a "how to" guide so i can follow it?
I´ve found this on on Youtube,but im not sure if its the same step-by-step: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmmThXTWu74
Also,Flashing this global rom,will prevent some apps from SE like TrackID to work or whatever ?
I´ve read it here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133650
Look in general and devs section, there are tutorials.
Im on phone so i cant copy/paste link to it.
Someone will give you link,or ask flo95 for it.

Does the docomo differ from the xperia arc? I have this and tried flashing lt15a ICS and it seems to hang, this does have a unlocked bootloader, does anyone have any advice?
bump, please help!
Hmmmm...I guess it is different, I'm a foreigner in Japan with an Arc, always try and avoid Japan specific phones. But you could always try other roms if your bootloader is unlocked. Good luck!

I am on the same firmware, I wanted only baseband which is from Indian software update like .45. As my phone is not purchased from India the baseband is still on the foreign waves. I am no pro, but i guess that's the problem. I tried reflashing your firmware as well, but still no network. Last hope is to get a baseband only from .45 India update. Likle arc and arc s get basebands, I wish I could also get a baseband for my xperia s lt26i
As above,
Does anyone have the version of stock firmware for C6503 (Generic SG)?
I currently have the RU/UK version of the phone and would like to flash the generic SG version on it.
Do I need to root the phone in order to flash it?

Is it? According to this .. they're different?
Mine lacks the original xperia chinese keyboard. And I was told here that I would need to root my phone if i wanted to install the apk
Mine is Malaysia c6502 without LTE.I also want SG c6503 firmware.I hope after flashed SG c6503 I get LTE support.
Sent from my C6502 using xda app-developers app
ZL 6502 version will never get LTE even u flash 6503/6 rom because 6502 dont have supported hardware. In setting yes u have the LTE but in reality u cant have it. Thats why the price differ between 6502 and 6503.
