This thread as of now is outdated. Binary has posted a tool to upgrade to 2.1 Nordic. Follow this thread only if you want to update to a UK firmware (1.6) and wait for 2.1 or get lucky as like some people.


Read carefully : IF THIS DOESN'T"T WORK FOR YOU , ITS BECAUSE YOU"RE DOING IT WRONG. DON'T SPAM THE THREAD WITH - "Its not working , you're misleading people " comments. IF it doesn't work for you ask help in a manner that people dont think you're an ass.( some ppl learned that lesson ). THIS is strictly for Indian mini's running 1.A.0.1.8 firmware with 1.6 . Good luck



UPDATE : This should work for all 1.0.A.8 firmware...not tested though!! Get your own build.prop for those who're not from India , or you can take risk and try this... no risk for Indian Mini's.. :)

Getting fast to the topic without much delay!

Its been conformed that Indian mini's will get 2.1 only by November mid. I'm posting this tutorial because i successfully edited the build.prop to debrand the mini ( Thanks to the new method discovered - credits to the OP )

The debranding is to UK generic , which is said to receive the update very soon.

Things you need

1. x10mini with firmware 1.0.A.8
2. Root
3. Root Explorer ( search market )
4. PC companion s/w

Procedure-

Backup your build.prop from /system

Download the attached build.prop and move it to /system using root explorer. ( You have to put the attached file on the memory card obviously )

Without restarting , connect to PC companion and Repair ( Factory reset+repair )

Tadaa - You're new firmware will be 1.2.A.174 , update with SEUS and get 2.1

Good luck

For those who said it was fake ( bit blurry )

Yeah, yeah ... same story again. Say that Indian does something wrong and get immediately accused of being a racist. For your information I am black, so keep your racism stories to yourself, mate.

The fact is that your instructions are crap and don´t work, as there is no update for UK generic. Point. Stop inventing stories or give us a proof.

Your method doesn´t work for anyone, because it is just an update to UK generic. You are misleading people.

or ppl not getting the update...

please clear the contents of the db folder in the seus installation directory and try...
remember to give ur phone 2 restarts after changing the default.prop.
