What is it called ? How do i get it on phone?
Im currently using a WinMo 6.5 ROM.
Help would be much appreciated. Thanks
Thats the bottom task bar later releases (6.5.x) have - and I don't know any ROM for the Experia X1 which would upgrade it to 6.5.x
so that means id have to flash a different room in order to have it? i did use a rom that had it... i thought i could just install it.

Hi-Launcher 1.0
Hi Guys ,
Check out this new software, Hi-Launcher 1.0 for windows mobile at http://www.ranosoft.net. Its really cool.I have been using this software for my Tungsten T/X for the last 4 years and it makes your navigation into various programs or functions (totally customisable) very smooth and fast.
I have installed it on my xperia x1 and thank god,I dont have to tweak any registry to change the font (not that i know how to do it!!) or press more than 3 buttons to call a person.
The menu on the start up screen can be initated however you want (hard button or screen touch) and simply swiping the screen will bring up your most wanted functions, which can be activated with one touch and totally is FINGER FRIENDLY.I did not feel that it slowed down the system one bit .
You can add your list of speed dial contacts in the start up menu and a touch will initiate the call.However,the cancel hard press button will not work if you decide to terminate the call and you need to use the red phone icon on the screen.I find the bluetooth icon particularly useful.Above all,I am totally happy for the big fonts and no longer need to skew my eyes to focus the default small font my xperia came with.I guess this one software will fill most of the gaps I was trying to cope with,in my xperia x1.
I want TouchFlo 3D so badly!! Which version should I download?! Can anyone point to the right ROM?
Also does anyone know any other "cooler" custom ROM?? Man, I just joined the Xperia scene, and am totally lost!!

its all personal preference really.
so far, for me.. itje's rom's have been a personal favorite.
also you need to make sure you hard-spl your phone before you start flashing. Its in a sticky I believe.
I do believe I installed it. Is there a way to check that you installed it to reconfirm?
And, can you point me to a direction where I can find touchflo3d that is based on Windows MObile 6.5?? There are just so many on here.. I can't find the right/best one.

you really should check out the sticky's
"8 ) to confirm you got it installed, go into bootloader mode (tricolour screen!) and verify the screen shows 0.72.OliNex (or 0.52.OliNex MFG)."
aka restart the phone and the red numbers at the bottom.
here is a rom.. but really you should read some of the posts and pick which rom you'll use for yourself.

Try those ROM's from Agent_47 and NRGZ. They have a new WM 6.5 ROM with TouchFlo 3D as well.
I'm in agreement.
I'm running agent 47 valkyrie 2.6 and it is very sweet.
Do those ROMS also support the PANEL feature? I love that XMB media panel, but it seems most ROMS don't support it... I know the SEX1 supports it.. it even enhances it. Is there a Touch ROM out there that supports it too?
I'm using Valkyrie Firestorm (winmo 6.5 + TouchFlo 3D) and I'm able to add additional panels.
Searching appears to have failed me, but I'm looking for a up to date, optimized (recent drivers etc), Manila/Sense LACKING 6.1 ROM for the Xperia.
Could anyone provide some guidance with that? I can't really find any
EDIT: To clarify, thats a Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM without manila or sense UI
Maybe you should look at the forum? Searching specific terms won't give any good results back.. These roms basically plague the forum, i dont know how you could not find ANY

And that's just the first page
6.1, not 6.5 I'm aware of the huge amounts of 6.5 ROMs
Bad grammar is bad
Even if there's manila/sense, you dont have to enable them.. no different tbh

Hi,
I can maybe try to cook something like that for you... you want other apps included (youtube, facebook, etc.) or totally clean?
Do you want X1 panel manager installed? Any X1 panels?
Will post a link here if I get it cooked...
-Oobly
the stock roms aren't too bad, but i can only think of two 6.1 roms without manilla/ sense;
norti nx1i 1.04
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478022
i've used this and can recommend it
bxsteez lite 1.05
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475083
otherwise, as mentioned it could be worth trying some of the established 6.1 touchflo roms and just disable touchflo. 'pctech4u' and 'touch x' come to mind. check out the rom library, ther might be more
I am on an own-cooked ROM which I can upload for you, or anybody else.
WM6.1 build 21051, no manila, no panels, some little apps that are useful for me and some selected HTC staff like enlarge start menu, volume control, FM-radio etc
I am using it for the last 2 months and it's very fast and stable. Perfect for SPB MS users.
I cannot provide any support though. No much time. Normally you won't need any.

hi guys, I have small question. cuz here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8ZL2-QEFoM&feature=player_embedded
we can see, from 4:09 till 4:27 this white, ugly, windows 95-like icons and background with old looking scroll. I dont want to keep this in my xperia, so I searched for some cool themes and found some, but one person from different forum told me that when I change ROM I will loose this:
http://www.gearcrave.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/sony-ericsson-xperia-x1.jpg
on the left side. I mean those small windows that give me overview to a lot of features in phone. So I ask you - is it possible to keep this built-in usefull and cool looking feature , and change view of these silly icons and white background to sth more modern?
thanks in advance, I appreaciate all helpful answers
bump, I will be more than insanely happy if sb could help me.
Yes, read the X1 ROM forum, almost all custom ROMs have Panel Manager. Look for a 6.5 ROM.
okay man <getting crazy> thank you so much!!
and is it possible to update WM from 6.1 to 6.5? I noticed that X1 sometimes has 6.1 and sometimes 6.5 (dunno what it depends on) and I know that on 6.5 there is more themes and you know.. just want to know

Officially X1 runs WM 6.1.
X2 will have 6.5.
You can have 6.5 only as custom ROM available at XDA.

1. even if I cant is it possible to have 6.1 and use 6.5 themes?

It's possible to have WinMo 6.5 on your X1.
First, you have to HardSPL your X1.
The link for instructions is here.
Second, you need to find a Custom ROM for your phone. Under the Xperia X1 ROM Development section of the forum, there are threads made by other users that have Custom ROMs they build that run on Windows Mobile 6.5.
When you find a ROM that suits your needs, extract the .nbh file to a FAT32 formatted MicroSD card (probably the best way to flash a custom ROM). Make sure the full name is "Kovsimg.nbh". Also. make sure any information you need off the phone is backed up. A good WinMo backup application is PIM Backup.
After you have backed up all files, and copied Kovsimg.nbh to a formatted FAT32 MicroSD card, turn off the phone, and make sure the battery is atleast 50% full. Hold the volume down rocker while pressing power, and until you see a 4-colour screen show up, don't let go.
If the phone detects the .nbh file, the screen will go grey and ask you to either press power to continue, or the select button to cancel.
Click the power button, give it a minute or two, and congrats.
Hi guys,
I have been a long time browser of this forum, I had downloaded a few roms from here before including the 6.5 one. However, a while ago my xperia screen broke (I think it was a hardware issue because it had all lines going across it when in landscape mode). I went to repair it, they wouldn't, so I decided to buy another xperia. So now I'm back to 6.1.
My friend had put a 6.5 rom on his nokia the other day, however it had the start bar at the bottom, instead of the top like I used to.
Can anyone show me a link to a rom with the start button on the bottom which is reliable.... pictures would be great.
If anyone thinks getting this rom is a bad idea, then are there any other suggestions?
Thanks for your help, I had looked through the forums but havent been able to find what i'm looking for
Look for 23*** ROMs, the latest releases are pretty reliable.
Just look in the threads for screenshots and comment on the ROMs.
