X10 mini pro ROM on X1 - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i want to raise the idea and expecting possibility of porting X10 mini pro ROM on X1

what for???

what does "what for" means... why we try to run android on x1.. why we keep experimenting with that?

but what's to gain from the x10 mini?
completely different hardware, so forget porting kernel-stuff. and software? well, since when is software from se any good? ^^
that's what "what for" means.

I agree caliban2. For one the X10 mini pro sucks, it has the same specs from phones that came out in 2006 lol. 2. The screen size, resolution and processor are not even the same as the X1??? If porting like this was even possible I would rather have software from the X10, Xperia Play, or Xperia Arc rather than the mini pro. Thanks for the laugh .

xperia x2 is running android n codenamed rachel.
so did u mean x2 n not x3?
Nope. It's the X3.
SE Xperia X3 ( Rachel )
the X2 is running Winmo, and it looks similar to the X1. I don't know it's codename though
Just remembered, X2 is called the Vulcan.
SE X2 ( Vulcan )
wow so many different answers
your user id is fire pigs???? Wow, how did you come up with that one?
Question still not answered. What does Kovsky means? Rhodium, Topaz, Heros, Venus... Still don't know how HTC select their projects. It is a mix of elements, greek mythology...Kovsky just somehow doesn't seems right belonging.
Never thought about it. Maybe Tchaikovsky was too long.

what could be the future for our beloved X1?

I know, i know...there has been said soooo much about the possible ROM-update voor X1 from wm 6.1 to wm 6.5....but there is just still is a bit of a bluh-feeling about the xperia not getting a final boost in performance/experience!
Not one person i know woth a x1 is going to buy the x2, and everyone i know with another phone, and everyone i read about on the net is looking at other phones! the X2 is bound to be a huge flop, simply because they (SE) are running behind! Everyone i know is talking about the HD2 woth its huge screen, or the omnia 2 with its huge screen and bright colors...the iphone is still hot with its huge screen, so is the touch pro 2, the hero, and even the Acer is getting ooohs and aaaahs!!!
And sony is coming with the X2? just compare all those hot phones with the xperia 2....not a great comparison IMHO!
N o, what i think what should be done, is to make the X1-fans more happy with their phone than they ever been, make the product really what it should be...skip the X2...and focus an the x3...(wich should be the true X2)
And because SE isn't doing anything right now about that, i would ask everyone who has the most cleanest wm 6.5 rom to link to the right thread, so any of the new(unexperienced) users can find a way to use their phones as they were brand new!
am with you
looked around for a x1 update to found some clean roms just dont know if its all worth it am not buying the x2 for all you know when we get the x2 the x3 will be out in afew months
pls let me know if you find a 6.5 se update for the x1
The SE rachael is now officially labeled the X10, not X3 anymore.

Personally I'm shooting for Rachel. I am jumping off the Windows Mobile train.

My future WindowsPhone

Hello, i'm not english and very young so so sorry to detroy your language!
But i want to buy a WindowsPhone and I don't konw if i have to buy Xperia x2 or HTC HD 2 ! Who's the best for you? I love the physic keyboard on Xperia but the hardware appears to be old! Winmo 7 Will be possible on Xperia?
Help me please! I don't want to buy a bad product!
I think keep this phone for 2 years maxi!!
Thanks in advance
Given the two choices, get the HD2. The hardware is far superior than that of the X2. It has a much better chance of running WM7 than the X2 also, when/if that becomes possible.
Completely agree, go for Leo!
Just adding that with Leo you´ll have the plus of having this site magnific support
Okey Thanks for your reply! I Think test them and buy the HTC...
Thanks a lot!
how old are you then?
And i would get an acer m900
I'm 15!
and I think that the m900 is a bad phone :/

Have to agree from the reviews i've read and it's just not HTC
Go for the HTC HD 2
It's real damage that the X2 have a bad processeur (525Mhz)
i have tried a few diffrent winmo phones from diffrent companies, acer/toshiba/HTC and HTC are leagues ahead of the competition, i sold my
TGO1 after a week and bought a hero lol
Go for the htc hd2 and hang out on xda!
The HD2 is the best phone but if your 15, dude i hope you have big hands!
LOL! Yes i've big hands
@mancsoulja: Android is better than WinMo ? Cause, the X10 comes with Snapdragon, so i can wait...
Android is good, the diffrence between winmo and android is on android everything works lol there are no errors, no force closes no issues what so ever that i have had with my winmo devices, everything just works first time every time, although i always seem to come back to winmo, i think the quality of software is much higher on winmo, u can get programs for everything, where as android is not so good software wise, they will and are catching up to windows but its your personal opinion
Okey, so i prefer WinMo, i think Android it's like iPhone OS... Not realy but I want a new thing.. So WinMo is perfect !
Witch WindowsPhone have 1Ghz and Physic keyboard ?
None to this date!
I am waiting for that too but don´t think we will see it till 2011 (hope I´m wrong...)
windows phone or windows CE phone
the only windows phone is this powered by xp http://www.xpphone.com/en/
Good hardware but it's a very big phone :/

[Q] Why did you buy the Xperia X8?

I placed this in Q/A instead of general cause..... it's a question that's been bugging me since the beginning of all this X8 Modding stuff.
The question is Why did you buy the Xperia X8 when after, rooting and unlocking, a lot of people will want to install an HTC sense ROM or basically Clone the look of the HTC sense UI?
Why not buy the HTC Wildfire S? same proc speed, same GPU, TRUE DUAL Touch Capacitive screen, 512 ROM, 512 RAM (418 useable) and upto 32GB SD Support and Built in Android 2.3. and ofcourse SENSE UI 2.1.
BTW, this question is really valid only for those who bought their X8's after May2011.
hi
i live in iran and htc wildfireS in my country is 320 Rial
but xperia x8 is only 180 Rial !!!!

That's actually a good reason. Price.... but, with the wildfire S which is less than double the price of the X8 you don't have to root and hence lose your waranty, and more than double the benefits of the X8. (RAM,ROM,True DT, Ginger ROM, etc)
Not dissing anyone or their decision on getting the X8, coz i love my X8 too and believe it or not, i like the original SE UI compared to HTC Sense. That was actually the reason why i got the X8 against the original Wildfire, and that was almost year ago. when the price of the X8 is actually more than the original Wildfire.
But my Question remains, with all the benefits of the Wildfire S, aside from price. Why get the X8?
and, Why put in Sense UI?
'Coz, to me it doesn't make sense...
.....Just asking.....
Cause it was Cheap
My friends told me that it is good
Can be over clocked highly D
Unfortunatelly it hasn't got so good camera, but it is good enough for me...
Because my gf want a phone that match my x10.. (^^,)

Very good of you
But i believe that yes, in the heart of it all, it comes to looks. Compared to the others, SE phones are probably the sexiest phones around, bar none.
i mean, if you didn't know the specs and you had the current superphones (Atrix, Sensation and S2) side by side with the ARC or NEO, what will you buy?

Because it's the cheapest phone with Android OS
Because its cheap, good and very good loking phone with pretty good hardware so you can do what you want with it...
I remember a few months back. We were cursing SE due to their lack of support. A lot of people even said that they will no longer buy a SE phone. I was one of them
Guess what? I'm deciding on whether to get the Neo or the Ray.
Because... they look good!

yeah, same....
I bought it (July '11) mainly because of the special offer by my italian mobile carrier (49 €)
My primary phone was and is a Nokia N85, and I took the chance to finally try an Android-based phone with a very good specs/price ratio
Why X8?
I buy X8, while I'm a serious SonyEricsson fan (K510,K750,W585 and X8)
This model have a good price/knowledge ratio, and smaller than X10
Here in Portugal, Vodafone PT:
Sony Ericsson X8 €124,89
HTC Wildfire S €229,90
I think this is the reason why a lot of people buy X8 instead of WildFire S

Your age isn't a problem, but be carefull choosing your girl, she must have a Sony Ericsson Xperia™ phone
My ex-gf has a Nokia 5300 XpressMusic, thats why the ex prefix LOL
So, its mainly a price/performance/looks argument.
What's your next phone gonna be? Still SE?

I would probably still choose smartphones in the Xperia base because they look awesome and their specs are pretty good too.
Hope that helps.
The funny thing about the new xperia's is that SE is now helping with the development if 3rd party ROMs. Bold move, but I guess they learned their lesson from the F&ups of 2009-2010. ie the Arc is what the X10 should have been.
Hardware wise, they have to catch-up on the Super Smart Phone and tablet bandwagon.

Should I get the X8?

Well should I buy it,is it worth?
My biggest concern is that SE doesn't updates android or flash or something important for the OS.
And yes I'm a noob,never used an android.
So..tell me..does the community makes some updates?
I know there are roms,for changing looks..and is that all,does it just changes the looks or it updates the software and makes it better?
Well thank you in advance dear gentleman.
Well, I'm no going to type out a whole list but the final answer from me in my opinion is:
YES!
Leave a thanks if I helped!
Well mate...your a senior member. And I believe you,still does the community have the knowledge to make this phone awesome always.
I mean in 2 years..I don't have the funds to buy a new phone every little time?
But also, thank you!

Yes, the community has the power!
We have many great developers here on the X8 forums! Including doixanh!
He has amazing roms!
I do recommend you root your phone because most things on here nowadays need root or to have a ROM installed
Shane,
Thanks
Leave a thanks if I helped!
The X8 has many advantages
- Awsome community that develops for it.
-Its a nice phone
I can list lots of more stuff

The x8 is a very good phone and the dev's here work very hard to keep our x8 Up to date in looks and software I have 2.3.7 with ice cream sandwich looks. And besides that my wife spent £300 on Samsung galaxy ace but my x8 gets higher score in quadrant. So yes get a x8 root it then flash a custom rom. You will be happy

Don't make that mistake !!
Am begging you ..
There are plenty of great phones out there
x8 has lost SE's concern !
THEY FORGOT IT !!
if you're gonna buy a phone
i suggest you buy the Xperia mini ..
not the x10 mini ..
the XPERIA MINI ..
a Great little phone for a great PRICE..
..
For me now ..
i have the iphone4
And that phone has blown my mind ..
so if i were you ..
x8 .. is never a choice ..
..
Thants only my opinion though ..
and BTW
The xperia mini is getting the ICS from SE
the x8 .. is not
Duh ..
what a Failure
Make.forget ..
well if u can afford i suggest u go for some other brands,but since ur new to android i guess u shud giv it a try,cos xda has great developers,and u can choose which one u prefer
I think you should really consider the newer models like Xperia Mini mentioned above.
NO! In capitals!
go for mini it should be better ... but x8 has a better community tho
Well I will wait a couple of days..maybe my network will also have the xperia mini in the offer,they said new models will arrive in this week!
They dont have it now...
We have great development that devolop for us but now the era of ics us coming...well our phone is obsolete. Even some dev's have left us cuz the x8 is old. In other words yes for community and no cuz its now a peice of crap stuck to se's shoes
Sent from my X8 using XDA App
Don't buy it.. It was good for the price when it was out but now it's old and slow.
Add a little more money to your budget and buy a phone that was released in 2011 (this is important if you want version updates from the manufacturer)..
For 130€ you can buy a gingerbread 1ghz + 512MB ram phone.. Upgradable to ICS.. That's only 30€ more from what i've paid for the x8..

Guys, remember that SE chose not to update old phones just like many other companies, which lead to a OS fragmentation. That's why google made an alliance with many manufacturers (including SE) that makes them update their phones at least 3 times with a major distro. This only applies to phones released after the alliance (2011). I'm not saying that SE is a good company, but if you buy a new phone from them today, it will get updated..
The phone i was referring to in my previous post was actually a SE one, not xperia but walkman.. SE Live with Walkman, which is being sold for 130€ in my country.
Same as the X8 but with:
1Ghz Scorpion CPU (which is ARMv7)
Adreno 205 GPU (Hardware-accelerated SVG and Adobe Flash)
512MB RAM
5 MP camera WITH autofocus and flash (records 720p video)
Stereo xLoud speakers (yes, speakers.. but also includes earphones of course)
Native wifi N
With gingerbread (upgradeable to ICS)
