Stock ROM

Hi guys, my phone will be going back for repairs. My problem is I had a custom ROM on the phone, I'm no back on the stock (Generic UK R3AA010 Software Update) ROM. Can they still say I had a custom ROM on the phone. Do I need to do a stock-SPL, and where will I get the stock-SPL.

Thanks

your generic uk rom is fine but you HAVE to un-hardSPL the phone first.

Sup guys, for those of you that are interested Blackberry Connect has been released for the X1 (Blackberry Connect 4.0).

Here is the download link: http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/support/softwaredownloads/detailed/blackberryconnect/x1?lc=en&cc=za

I have been testing it and it works a treat... Loving it.

Took a bit to get it setup (never used it before) but now I have my email accounts running and my browser is using BIS to connect to the web...

I've tried this and I keep getting

PIN: Pending
IP Address: No Connection

When I go to "Utility" tab and click 'Register', I get an IP Address for a few seconds and reverts back to "No Connection".
 
...... and 2.8 is out . wow i had to wait so long my coffee is cold already :)

but beware guys it IS still experimental ROM (leo)
you wont have certain things like mms, which i never use anyway.
and still a couple bugs to iron out. if you looking for stability then use
V2.7 FS ( 21928 )

oh by the way
i had that battery draining problem again
woke up at 830 yesterday cos my alarm didnt go off, seems the battery got drained somehow even tho it at 65% the nite before
i do think it has something to do with the rom, i hope so
 
version?

i would always recommend having the latest, every version release has many bugfixes
 
still 2.6, havent got round to changing yet dur to cap issues
so not sure if i should get 2.7 or 2.8

wat u think, i do recieve mms once in a while but hardly send any
let us know how 2.8 is and if i shud download that instead

I installed 2.8 last nite. So far, it runs much smother than 2.6.lNo MMS support and landscape is still an issue. Its definitely evolving quickly in the right direction.

Do you have the Blackberry Service activated on your account?
