How do I upgrade my Xperia X10 family smartphone?
Please note: before you begin the update process, back up your phone.
If you bought your Sony Ericsson X10, X10 mini or mini pro after the end of October 2010, it is likely that your phone already runs Android 2.1. To check the version of Android on your phone, open the settings menu and select 'about phone' to view software information.
If your X10 family phone currently runs a previous version of Android, you will be prompted to download the upgrade as soon as it becomes available, via a notification that will appear in your status bar.
When you receive the notification, simply plug your smartphone into your PC via the charge & sync cable that came with it, and use the Sony Ericsson PC Companion software on your computer to complete the upgrade.
You will be prompted to follow a few steps so please make sure that you read all of the onscreen instructions carefully and that you don't miss out a step.
