OK... I could not reply to a thread in the developers section as I have less than 10 posts but I have been reading through the forum for some time now and one member here interested me when he stated that he contacted the SE hotline in France and they confirmed to him that X10 Mini Pro would recieve the 2.3 update.
just call'em and you'll see.
They haven't been working on froyo but now they know that they can do a good ROM for the SE mini pro so it's comming soon.
the numbers to call Xperia custommers service is just right there...

Well basically I have done the same thing but in the UK and have confirmed to me that they will NOT be giving further updates for the X10 Mini Pro.
I believe the only thing we can do is concentrate on cracking the bootloader.
Let's stop kiddings ourselves here, armv6 doesn't support flash 10.1 and multi-touch is really not ideal for such a small screen for the X10 Mini Pro. I can see why SE would not bother updating our handsets.
Just as the title...
Can min Pro have double touch??
Thanks for answer...
from what I've read from previous threads, YES, it can, but not just yet.
THANKS...you give me faith...
try reading these thread

Can anyone confirm Multi touch for x10 Mini NOT Pro
Saw the blog here.. Seems Xda team did it again. Is it supported on X10 mini as well?
nope. mini and mini pro have different hardware on MT so there should be a different script for the mini

you mean X10 mini will never have MT? I think both have the same screens. Am I right?
I saw an article on endgadget but cant port links since my posts arent yet 10 but I will quote it
However, this one isn’t your usual run of the mill rumor. Our friend Michell over at se-blog did a little bit of research on his own. He managed to contact Synaptics, who are a supplier of touchscreen technologies and learned that the X10 mini sports a ClearPad 2000 solution, which means it supports dual touch, which is the basic form of multi-touch. It may not be available out of the box due to the device launching with Android 1.6 onboard, but it’ll certainly be enabled once the Android OS is updated.
Strangely, Synaptics is the supplier for only the X10 mini and not the X10 mini pro. Is it because Sony Ericsson thought that the mini would be crippled due to the lack of a physical keyboard and hence opted for the technology to provide a better experience? No idea. Sony Ericsson do have a knack of taking strange decisions, this one being another addition to the list.

Actually the reverse is happening. Now I am seeing multitouch on X10 mini Pro but not X10 mini

I'm sorry, you will never have MT , engadget its the worse gossip publisher, and no, Mini pro have different digitizer (CYP-CY8CTMA300), better than mini, better than even big X10, capable with multitouch, and no dualtouch like X10 (Clearpad2000), or single touch like mini (Clearpad1000).. sorry, but let it die!

better than even big x10，capable with multitouch， meanting that pro can have more than two finger touch ？？？
Sent from my U20i using Tapatalk
? Why is Mini Pro capable of while Mini isn't?! I mean Mini relies only on its touchscreen whereas the Pro might even add functionality to some apps with the keyboard.
Anyone knows the answer why SE chose for that? (was mini released before the Pro i.e.? Or maybe loves the Pro more, like I do? ).
Well im talking about new launching xperia mini & mini pro NOT xperia x10 mini & mini pro
Guys i have a suggestion..... Let me know your views.
Well i think this way,
Since SE is not planning on giving any upgrade to xperia x10 mini & mini pro...But is going to give it to the new xperia mini & mini pro which SE is launching.....
I think we should all convince SE to give out an offer for existing xperia x10 mini & mini pro users to exchange their xperia x10 mini & mini pro for new xperia mini & mini pro (which they are lauching or i guess launched in some places) @ a minimal cost say between 20% - 50% of the new launching xperia mini & mini pro or whatever we all agree on???
Cant we trying doing this....?
XDA has lot of members & i think wid all this no. of members we can atleast try???
There's already rumours about the 1st gen mini & mini pro getting 2.3.
The newest source (Vodafone Australia Blog) has said they could be working on it within 6 weeks or less. So things are certinly looking good for those who have the older xperia range.
This is recived 2 weeks after it was announced that the x10 would get an update to 2.3 due to demand.

Odd, why would a carrier just drop a whole range of phones like that?
and oh yes, i heard it from vodafone staff too when i first bought my MP. but i didn't buy it too long after the 2.1 update, so i wasn't too fussed about the software, the design was what sold this phone to me
and then... i found you guys and all was good!
but now (mini pro) we have the full 5MP camera (not sure if the mini has it yet) in our custom roms im not sure that there is a point to getting it as on the x10 they didnt even update the kernel so i doubt there woould be any benefits unless they enabled multi touch further than we have from slades driver (e.g 3 point or the full 7)
Already have it.
Yeah to have the official one would be nice.
it's an aquired taste, some people don't want all the extra in the roms like Cyanogenmod. and just want the official upgrade

Dude thats just for x10 mini pro....
what about x10 mini???
i think guys we should all come together for this & demand together @ SE community site either for upgrade or my idea...
I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but anyway,
I have the original X10 Mini Pro. But a few months back I had to stop using it because typing on it gave me thumb strain. I think it was because of how hard the keys are.
So I'm just curious as to how the new Mini Pro's keyboard stacks up with its predecessor's. Has anyone owned both, or has tried both, and can tell me their thoughts?
Thanks.
I don't know diffenrence but I have no problems with it and I type quite some with it.
the xperia mini pro sk17a has the larger keyboard
hey all, just got my hands on an x10 mini pro (dirt cheap, 25 off a mate ) its for a xmas present for my big brother. im wondering what i should do with it. is it really worth rooting these? they are pretty nippy as they are, and i doubt my brother will use it for games, just as a phone, alarm and music player really. is it really worth rooting/modding these phones?
give me your thoughts please. thanks very much.

Go through the X10 Mini/Pro forums and read those FAQ, it's definitely NOT a bad phone IMO, I got X10 Mini, X10 Mini Pro, X8 and now Xperia Mini Pro, nearly all are great for their value, as 2nd hand phones.
