Update 1.6 to 2.1 Guatemala

[#1]

Hey!!! I bought my x10 mini pro 2 weeks ago and i really want to update the OS from 1.6 to 2.1, i tried to use the PC companion but it says that i already have the latest update,

i read that i can update my phone by other ways but i haven't tried any of that because i have the felling that my phone would turn into a brick or make the phone useless.

Can someone please tell me how can I update my OS to 2.1 without losing the 3G or any other funcionality?

My phone info is:

Model number: U20a

Firmware version: 1.6

Baseband version: unknown

Kernel version: 2.6.29 SEMCUser@SMCHost #1

Build numbrer: 1.2.A.1.181

Operator: Claro Guatemala

I'd be really greatful if someone could help me.

Thnx

Sony Ericsson won't release 2.2 or above, there are ways around it

if you want Apps2SD

Hey thanks for all the info. you gave me; and about the firmwares: which one is better?

Do i have to return my phone to 1.6 to try another firmware or i just flash it to another one with the one i already installed? (in this case the Nordic)

2.1 UK

2.1 French

2.1 german

2.1 NL (i don't know what this is)

I installed the nordic but the buttons "," "." and the "?" have change, everytime i type one of those, a weird letter comes out and i don't want to do all that tutorial

to change the keyboard to normal.

Do you know which one leaves the keyboard running like the way it should?

the UK or Global Generic will be the best way to do (NL = netherlands)

you don't have to flash back to 1.6, you can flash directly from the 2.1 that you have right now
