Xperia X1 The best setup?

Hello!
This is my first post in the forum.
I recently got a X1 prototype to play with, im all new to WM Phones. So i dont know what to do and not to do.
What i personally feel is that X1 is kinda slow, but from what I've read I understand that some people has customized their own stuff for the phone to make it faster than it is with original firmware (or what its called)
My question to you guys/girls is: What is the best setup for the phone to make it run smooth but, what ROM should i use, if someone could put up a simple guide with links so what i need to download, the best roms, best appz.
Note that i dont want a GUI that looks like win 3.11. I still want it to look good. Not neccecearly with just spb shell.
Anyone that reccomend putting WM 6.5 into X1?
Anyway, the best stuff so the phone will run at its best!
That would be much appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
Edit: A list of "what to do" would be good, stuff i need to do before doing anything to the phone, to make sure i wont brick it.

Welcome .
I see that you are looking for the perfect setup and the easiest way of doing it, just like me, when I first came here. The short answer is that there is no such thing .
It all comes down to personal preference when WinMo is concerned. I can tell that you have read a bit, so my advice is to continue reading and do a lot of experimenting to see what you might like. You might like a stripped ROM that is blazingly fast and has only the basic features. You might want a slower, but fully stocked phone with every app available.
I can bet that if someone from the forum picked up my X1 he wouldn't like it and vice versa.
Maybe you should start with the ROMs that are specifically made for speed and smoothness and see if you like them. Just read the descriptions.
Cheers .

Hello! Thank you for your reply.
I almost figured that i would get a reply like yours. As we say in sweden: Smaken är som baken, delad = One mans meat is anothers poison. Ofcourse its hard to find the perfect setup.
But according to my directives (Going fast, but still pretty neat) As you said. Its either the basics = going fast, or a fully stocked = slow phone.
Isn't it something in between? A setup that contains both the basic features, but also some neat GUI.
And if someone has got any experience from WM 6.5 on xperia X1, please tell if it worked good.
Are they any ROMs more popular than others, if i put it that way....There must be something that a slight majority likes.

Is it even possbile to do something with a prototype?

Your problem might also be hardware, rather software. Prototypes usually don't have the same "guts" as their commercial, mass produced siblings. Some have less RAM, or a slower processor, or less internal memory, etc.

Im with you there. Its not the first proto i have, so im aware that hardware may not be the same as retail. But still..firmware can do much, eventough ram is lesser than the retail (256) I have R1A at the moment.
I will post some device info. Just so you know whats inside the phone.
Rom-Version: 1.02.936.3
Rom-Date: 08/29/08
Radioversion: 1.06.25.29
Protocall version: 52.43.25.24U
CPU: QUALCOMM(R) 7200A
Clock: 528 MHZ
RAM-Size: 256 MB
Flashmemorysize: 512 MB
Database: 32 Bit
StorageSize: 281.58 MB
Bluetooth-Version: 2.0/2.0+EDR
Firmware: R1AA017

ah yes the R1A firmware. that's what i had on my X1i when i first got it. when i upgraded to the R3A....it was BEYOND the difference between night and day. it was like night vs standing on the sun.
to get the ball rolling, i would recommend getting the Sony Ericsson Update Suite from their website, and updating the phone through their automated system. it will bring you up to date on the R3A rom and it's painfully easy, so it will give you a taste of what's to come...

If you didnt know this or just didnt read my post carefully, it said that its a Prototype im using. And SEUS doesn't accept them. It just say that im already using the newest firmware.

I totally agree - I run the Valkyrie ROM and it's absolutely amazing! I will recommend flashing it any day. One of my co-workers has the same ROM, and he's also amazed.
One thing to notice: If you're from Sweden, you might want to stay clear of the Manila versions. For me (from Denmark) I can't run the Danish keyboard settings while running Manila, and that's a total deal-breaker. After all, you want to take advante of full QWERTY, right?
Manila is what you might know as Touch Flo from HTC phones. IMO you should avoid that, go with Valkyrie's Xperio ROM (without Manila) and use the SPB panel (free). Then you have a really strong setup!
But hey - that's just me

Great, thanks for the info, i was kind of unsure what version of a rom i should install

If you're still feeling your way around, install the official Sony Ericsson R3A ROM. No need to Hardspl, and you'll still have the same interface that you're used to.

I cant install R3A :S
It says "No image found" bootloader.
And the card is FAT32, and the file is named Kovsimg.nbh
And yes, its placed in the root of the Card.

First of all: If you want the original firmware, don't take it from XDA - take it from the SE official program.
Second: If you want to install a cooked ROM, first run HardSPL. This only works in some of my USB-ports, and only without inserting the memory card.
Once HardSPL is installed, you need the Kovsimg.nbh file...
Hope it helps

How am i supposed to get it from SE's Official program when its not supporting prototypes?
Do they have a site where you can download them manually?

Already got that one...but its not working
Thanks anyway.

When is the X2 ROM expected??

Cant anyone get hold of the official ROM rite now..i want the OS badly..also, will the ROM have the 'time your panel' function once imported to X1...
PLz pzl: Im not looking for a cooked ROM, also, I asked in my last post but no1 answered, will the final OS of X2 have a start menu at the bottom???
I dont want it that way, i like the current one, black and white and top left...if it is going to be at the bottom, i dont mind a VERY VERY STABLE ROM (almost close to the original one) rite now...
where can i get such an X2 ROM rite now then...(only of the X2 ROM is going to have a start menu at the bottom)
Thanx a ton guys!

version 6.5.3 (aka build 28000) will have this bottom start menu. I wouldnt be surprise if there is no difference between these cooked roms and official x2 6.5, ofcourse both being 6.5

no..then can i have a build before 28000...but i want a real, clean and Un cooked ROM..where is my search bar???

im not sure why you do not want a cooked rom, there is no "stock" 6.5 at the moment. you can always try "pure" 6.5 cooked rom. its as close as the real 6.5

every rom is cooked. who cares if its done by sony ericsson or someone from here. do u think xda chefs are stupid? they know what they do and have probably more experience than anybody else in cooking. have u tried the original rom R1AA or R2AA? they had some bugs and were slow.

There will be no official X2 ROM for the X1....only ported over and cooked rom's by the chef's here....

The only option is to wait for a shipped ROM of X2 and then we can hope Jerpelea can cook a stable build out of it. With my experience of X1, I am not sure if Sony would let that out before february. Correct me if I am wrong guys....

I really don't mind cooking, becasue I trust chefs in XDA
I really want a X2 ROM cooked for X1, just cut out some features not supported on X1, and it will be nice if it is stable and fast.
Could you tell me is there a ROM like this?

If you haven't noticed the few fortunate chef's that do have the X2 have been working non-stop since around Thanksgiving and earlier working on trying to port the X2 over. If you're so damn impatient buy the X2 and port it over yourself and you can be among the few who're working hard trying to make it work for the X1. And then you'll also have an X2 to play with!

Ok, first things first, i really dont underestimate or think the XDA chefs are stupid. That is for you, pansen222, secondly, its pure preference. if i want a clean, as-is ROM, its my choice. I wud not question anyone why they prefer cooked ROM. Its just that I have seen many threads of coooked ROMs having issues with the phone. im not the kinnda who will be flashing every day, i use my phone like a computer. we dont change our computer OS everyday do we????
just like that, I want to flash my phone purely for the sake of upgradig an OS....from 6.1 to 6.5...as simple as that.
For this, i want a stable, clean, as-is ROM...
Hope i have cleared everything.

Don't you think if there was a true ported X2 OS for our X1s it would be out and you would know about it just by looking at the threads? (Most likely would be sticked). Jerpleaa's ported X2 isn't 100% X2, but he's making a great effort trying to work with what he has.
I know I was rude with my first post, but you just sounded like an impatient little $**! the day before X-Mas.

I completely understand man...the kinnda noobs that are around(i know im one of them hehehe) But again, i prefer real,un-cooked ROMs as they are straight from the Sony factory (and i have some one to blame if something goes wrong heheheh...)
Wil keep an eye open for the X2 ROMs...BTW, where can i make the registry setting changes for the tilewave panel on my X1..Thanx a ton!

Once your phone is Hardspl'd , you would have to make a real effort to brick it.
As far as Android goes, all Android for Kaiser is advanced alpha or beta. Again, read..read...read to find what is best for your needs.

So do you recomend to not chose Android, because it is just in beta?
Edit:
What can i do if i dont like Android/WM6,5? How do i find back to my original WM6,1? (With norwegian keyboard)

reflash your old rom.

I started with the tutorial to, and it works completely. if you do it that way.. Its impossible to brick it. Once you installed Hard SPL, it shouldn't be a problem ever, + you have to follow that tutorial once, after that you can just open the exe files, and start flashing fast. Aslong as you are sure that you installed HardSPL, And NOT soft spl. If you want to install a rom, you should read the thread about it carefully. Otherwise you might not have sound, or camera wont work etc.

Okay, but is it a way to get norwegian keyboard on WM6,5 or Android?

Don't know if this will help you:

I don't know if it is compatible with Android.. I'm not that familiar with Android, I have only tried it once. But in my opinion it isn't a full usable OS

So you dont recommend Android?

Personally Android on the Kaiser is still in the early beta stages, you still can't even boot straight into Android yet,you have to boot WM or Linux and then launch Android manually, plus there are still some basic kaiser functions that are still a little iffy on the Kaiser ports.
If your are a reader and tinkerer then by all means try. But if you are expecting to get a " Hero " or a " myTouch " out of your Kaiser, it is not going to happen and you should just stick with a good 6.5 or an even better 6.1.

Yea right. In my opinion Android is slow on a Kaiser. Because of the slow Processor. Thought it looks nice.. But not fully usable for personally use.

everybody who touched your phone will go there and look what pictures you have there so i hate it
you can fast type any person pressing dialer and typing first letter from name
so is useless and resource hungry

Love your ROM for being lite. A very nice surprise (I've forgot how nice is the bounce back effect at the end of a list; sad that Microsoft didn't use it for 6.5.x builds). Thank you!
It was funny to read the introduction. It's sad that some people didn't understood your game. I was hoping to see the funniest thread.
(The Opera Mini is in Romanian, or is because of my settings; when I've installed opera mini myself it was in English, even with the same settings. Nice lock-screen)

First off, if you would search before you post, you would know that you can't make an 'Android' ROM for a windows mobile phone. You Can however install a package that allows you to boot XDAndroid.
Blackstone build (which is most likely compatable with the whitestone) here
And if that doesn't work, well you're pretty much out of luck.

The HTC Vogue is a WinMo phone with members very actively developing Android ROM's. My Vogue runs Froyo when I give it break from WinMo. I do boot from the SD card, but many boot straight to Android, with no Windows mobile to be found..

Exactly. I have 3 vogues that all boot Android 2.2 from NAND, so yea, don't listen to Dean. If HE would have done HIS research, he would have known all about that.
Please build an Android ROM for the Imagio.

Subscribed. Wishing this to come a reallity.

id like to see this also

okay great, so who's working on it?

Can one of you just try using the blackstone ROM please and let the rest of us know if it works?
You can always flash back to stock, so someone just try it.
My old Vogue just died, and getting a replacement is $90 since it is discontinued - OR - I can get an Imagio for $50 with my new-every-two deal.
Since I want to stick with Android, I need to know.
-edit-
nevermind...Imagio has forced data plan...VZW jerks! Guess I will stick with the Vogue replacement (no forced data required)

If you want android *DONT* get the HTC Imagio, nobody is working on it...

Android uses Apache License

I completely disagree with you, are you really a developer?, look at the Apache License in wikipedia
Free software can be modifyed !!

Do you still want to develop Android for the Whitestone?
I know where to start !!

Agreed...ThaDeanesta doesn't know what he/she is talking about. There are tons of Android ROMs for Windows mobile phones. The most active community is probably the HTC Vogue/HTC Touch forum for custom Android ROMs running on stock WM 6.1, 6.5 devices.

It booted (i guess) !!

Try this:
[Hi, i was ale to boot yesterday but i found a problem with the LCD screen, it is not recognized and is blank, i think maybe we can work it out using the correct command line arguments in the startup.txt HaRET file
Please try it, i need help:

The screen is blank, but i know it boots because it turns off the screen after a minute and responds to the "send" buttom and turns on, also it created a data.img and FSCK0000.REC file
There's a lot of work to do but we are on the right way !!!
