Hello guys.. good morning... New black SEX Pro reporting in~

wanna ask for those who updated the phone via PCC (official way), did anyone of you experience the qwerty to azerty HW keyboard issue?
Kinda afraid of updating it since I saw this problem over in Sony's official forum... Thanks

ur keyboard hardware is qwerty or azerty now?

I'm still at stock GB 2.3.4 (unrooted), so right now is QWERTY.
Just worrying that updating via PCC will mess the keymapping

no . it'll not messing up your keyboard .

alrighty thanks! By the way, is there anyway to install the language pack to the Pro's default keyboard?
I found the chinese missing... my phone's SI is 1261-5019.2 (AR,EN,FR)... so I think it is UK/Europe device.

just unlocked my bootloader XD
now waiting to root my phone
facing few problems.. bcome very blur when read the guides =="

and whats "mount to MTP" , whats MTP?

why don't u install custom rom that already have root acces ?
xD

btw , MTP is a Media Transfer Protocol . u can change btween mtp mode or msc mode ..

Really? Cos I have tried out a unit which I think is Taiwan Variant where it can switch to Chinese; while mine only contain all those European language. Hence I thought that there is a way to switch the languange pack. In that case, perhaps the only way to get chinese language on international keyboard is to flash to TW/HK stock ROM?

use flashtool, flash ur unit with an international fw and tat will solve ur problem.

thanks... so out of the following FW, which one has the built in Chinese? (Extracted from XDA)

Stock Firmwares
Note: Stock firmware bundles packed as ftf (below) seems to be cross-compatible between MK16i and MK16a versions. However, do not take this as a 100% fool-proof conclusion, since this has not been confirmed by Sony. You can flash firmware for MK16a in MK16i and vice versa, the only side affect being that your phone would be recognized by software as the corresponding firmware you flashed. In case if you flashed a different baseband and your SIM card/mobile network is not working, you can always re-flash the correct firmware.

For MK16i
MK16i 4.0.1.A.0.283 (1254-8131) (Android 2.3.4)
MK16i 4.0.2.A.0.42 (UK) , ALT (Android 2.3.4)
MK16i 4.0.2.A.0.42 (Generic DE) (Android 2.3.4)
MK16i 4.0.2.A.0.42 (Chinese) (Android 2.3.4)
MK16i 4.0.2.A.0.58 (1249-8108) , ALT1 , ALT2 , ALT3 (Android 2.3.4)
MK16i 4.0.2.A.0.62 (1251-0386) (Android 2.3.4)
MK16i 4.1.B.0.431 (Baltic / Europe Keyboard Layout) & (1251-0386 / Africa Keyboard Layout) (Android 4.0.4)
MK16i 4.1.B.0.431 (Baltic / Europe Keyboard Layout) (Android 4.0.4)

and when we are flashing the FW, do we have to master reset the phone again?
Mine is build number: 4.0.2.A.0.62

Also, I noticed that there are some posts mentioning that root for 042 and 062 has different method is it?
So, if I'm just going to flash the firmware, do I need to first unlock bootloader and root the phone first?
Thanks

flash FW,dont need to unlock bootloader...flash and then root...

Thanks~

u want build in chinese form or can read chinese characters or can read and write?

Built in Chinese Read and Write with just the single click on the "Earth" icon on the keyboard..
Right now I'm using google PinYin but switching of language is kinda troubling. Thanks

then u should check what fw is taiwan, hongkong and china using for MK16i and flash it with flashtool. if u are using internation fw (which authorized sets from thorus is using), u can read, but not write in a single click. u need aftermarket apps to support written settings.
