Android software upgrade??

[#1]

The peria X10 mini pro has the firmware version Donut (v 1.6) while newer versions like Eclair (v 2.1) and Froyo (v 2.2) have already been released and the other manufacturers have already used them in the phones. Android systems is ready to release the next version of the OS: Gingerbread (v 3.0) while we still use the crappy 1.6 base version.

When will the software upgrade to atleast 2.1 or 2.2 be available for the X10 mini pro users?

Sony Ericsson have stated that the roll out of Android 2.1 will begin at the end of this month, it should be available to users shortly after depending on how long your individual carrier takes to release it their users.

What does 'end of october' mean exactly? Does it mean the last week or day? Will my provider have more information or will they only find out at the time? Thanks.

we will be like...TRICK OR TREAT!!!

Haha! I hope it will be a treat .:smileyhappy:

I must echo the question asked. When in October? My daughter is desperate to have this phone but I cannot send it to her until I have updated the firmware. Please be more specific so we can prepare ourselves.....

The update starts sometime within the next three days which will take us up to the 31st of October when it should be out. Branded FWs might take longer as operators need to add there own options to the FW but this isn't up to Sony Ericsson when this is completed.

hi just a few questions i would like to get to know the answers to... 🙂

1) I have had a few issues on an off with my android market application too.... i have not being receiving updates for my applications on time for the last 3 weeks..... and in some cases i have not received them at all..... will that in any way affect the software upgrade...?

2) My phone was an unlocked version, so will i be receiving the upgrade during the next 3 days or 31st of October...? the last answer on this was not that clear....

3) will the software upgrade fix my existing android market problems...?
