[SOLVED] Problem when installing themes with Apps2SD - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hi,
I'm experiencing a problem with my Mini,
I have successfully installed Apps2SD on it but the thing is, I'm trying to change the theme (framework-res.apk) whenever I try replacing the framework the phone bricks up (gets stuck on the logo) I've done this a few times before following the same tut and had no problems at all but now for some reason I cant install themes... has anyone else experienced this problem?
Any help at all will be appreciated
Thanks
EDIT: NVM, Solved

hi ,
i have same experience with replacing framework (after replacing phone reboots) but if i use cat /sdcard/framework_copied_to card > /system/framework/framework-res.apk (system is RW and commanad ok) phone reboots and new framework work ok... problem is in case that command is bad
reflash to continue

Lol it was funny when a theme developer couldn't install his own theme

Sounds like you broke your settings, just pull the settings apk from the original rom zip and push it to your phone then reboot.

Forgive me if I may sound a little dumb here but how do you pull it from the original rom then push to phone?......
I am sure one of the fonts did that. it has happened to me before. To pull somethiong out of rom just unzip it. Settings.apk is in system/app folder.
Awesome fonts. Thanks!!

Very nice. Thanks for this. I was so tired of the same s**t!

YES PLEASE I redid everything on my phone and its great again but i would love to use a different font but i do not want to use this zip until someone can pin point the problem
the ajax font crashed my settings, i repeat do not install the ajax font, it will crash your phone and constant FC of your display settings, i extracted the original settings .apk from my rom and pushed over and rebooted, that does not work...still FC... not cool...
I pinpointed the one that's causing the force closes. can't remember the exact name because I deleted it right when I discovered which one it was. I do believe it had something like "7con in it. Or something to that extent. Hope this helps everyone that's having this issue.

Uninstall it using Titanium or super manager or whatever you use and it ll be back to normal.
I unistalled them all using Titanium and was able to open up my display settings again.
Edit: post before me beat me to it.
yeah, that doesn't work, i uninstalled all of them hours ago...tried to push the settings apk over using root explorer but root explorer wont allow me to mount the system folder to rw just stays ro, i pushed settings.apk over to the data folder where app is and that did nothing after i replaced settings.apk...should i unistall settings.apk from titanium then reinstall settings.apk from my rom zip? i try to reinstall the settings.apk and it will not allow me to do so..now my launcher is freezing up and force closing on reboots...
Woops same problem. Is it the ajax apk?

yes, the others were working fine until that point or it could be a combination of them all or just the one bad .apk...i had to reflash my rom over a font..

[Q] Which custom rom should I choose?

I must admit, I am a complete noob when it comes both to linux, android and smartphones. I know a great deal about computers, but only recently bought the X10 mini pro, since it wasn't that expensive and I wanted a qwerty-keyboard.
Anyway, the reason I have decided to install a custom rom is mainly the fact that SE have confirmed that they will not give X10 mini/mini pro Froyo, so therefore I now understand I have to start using custom roms.
The current wishes I have for installing a custom 2.1 rom is the following:
-Apps2SD
-Multitouch
-Change themes
I have currently decided to go for the iridium rom. Is that a good decition? I've read lots about "JiT" but I don't exactly know what it is. For example, can I install JIT, then install a custom rom (such as iridium) and JIT will still be "installed" and working?
Many of the tutorials here are great, in the way that it makes noobs like me able to actually install custom roms, however, the tutorials are alot like:
STEP 1) Pick a ftl/i20x model and install with flash tool.
STEP 2) Use one of the following builds: 2.1.A.x353.3531.43 (I'm like... WTF IS FTL?! WHAT BUILD SHOULD I CHOOSE?? WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?!?!? :/) lol,

Hope I helped, if so, press that Thanks button!! ;D
i would say try till you find one you like. just because you like the looks of the iridium rom you should try them all before you make your descion. also experiment a bit since that does not hurt to try.
Well whats holding me back is the simple fact I can't get xrecovery working. I made another post for that tho, anyone of you want to try and assisst me?

I start right after I feel the vibration (a little b4 the sony ericsson logo appears)
And remember that it is the first logo that they're talking about! The one woth only text! ;D

If I helped, click that thanks button!!! ;D
Trust me.. When I say I have tried for hours getting xrecovery to work, that includes rebooting 20-30 times, each time pressing the back-button from vibration and probably like 3 times per second, until phone is fully booted. No results. Is there no other way to check if xrecovery actually IS installed?
Ok, I've seen some problems with the placing of the three files...
Where have U placed dem?
You need to COPY them from sdcard til SYSTEM, Then MOVE to system/bin.
That step is very important to make it work.. if you've just copied them from sdcard til system/bin , that could be the problem.. ?

EDIT: Good Luck C:
I did nothing of the sort, i just used bin4rys 'all in one' tool from PC to install xrecovery, then also the xrecoveery-fix.apk i think also bin4rys production. It said it installs xrec
Sent from my U20i using XDA App
Thanks alot!
But now the strangest thing happened... after my phone crashed and I repaired it, I log into market with my google account, and all applications (such as "Root Explorer") that I've paid for in the past, won't get downloaded. It just starts download but nothing happens, download freezes at: "downloading".
Any ideas what's causing this?
JiT is enabled as part of installing Iridium ROM.
Alright, I did a factory reset to fix the problem. With market. Followed indtructions precisely, three times now...xrecovery never starts up.
Anything else I need to configure? I notice that when i reboot, go /system/bin the xrecovery.tar file is gone.
EDIT: No it is still there, with the same permissions.
It doesn't seem like anyone else have any issues running xrecovery, so I don't get it!!
Sent from my U20i using XDA App
When I try to install xrecovery with the aapk-installer, the three icons just turn red. Judging from others who had this happen, it was due to an outdated busybox version.
Anyway, I ran Titanium Backup to update busybox, but that only got me 1.15. How can i get 1.18? It is not on the market

I dont think it is due to busy box version. i have busy box 1.15.3, and i have x recovery and custom rom CM 6.3.2.1 installed.
Are you moving the file and then copying them to them to the system folder? and is the root explorer in rw.
Thread which i followed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878426
peace.
I move files to /system/. Change permittion. Copy to /system/bin/. Reboot. Hammer back button, nothing.
The unified xrecovery-apk installer gives a clue I think, cause the install fails. I just wantt to find out why. I am rooted. I do mount r/w..
Sent from my U20i using XDA App
You need to copy them THEN move them, from your post above you are moving them then copying. Its important to do it the right way round.
Now I copied them to /system/. Change permittions. MOVE them to /system/bin/. Still no luck.
I am confused about all the talk about Busybox version, instructions about "DO NOT UPDATE BUSYBOX ONCE YOU'VE INSTALLED XRECOVERY!!" etc. but if I had done that wrong, xrecovery should just cause the phone to freeze at the SE-logo, right?
Atm, nothing at all happens at the SE-logo.
I think I'm going to use SEUS to wipe it all clean again, then just root it with superoneclick from PC, download Root Explorer, and try this again. My build atm is: 2.1.1.A.0.6 btw.
Thank you all so much for the help! I got it working now Had to go back to factory settings, then just root with superoneclick (NOT try to install xrecovery) then I installed xrecovery manually, after installing busybox through Titanium Backup.
Haha, now the only issue is that I can't find the flashtool from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=825664 I made afew posts here and there asking if someone could re-upload or post a mirror two days ago, but no replies. Does anyone have the GUI-version of flashtool?
EDIT: Nevermind. An angel uploaded a mirror of that too! =) Thanks everyone, now I will try my luck with the iridum rom!

Problems with ROM Arc CM6.2.0 Achotjan_2.2.3_v06

Sorry, I'm new users and I cannot post reply in the develop section so I decide to create new thread here.
I have problems with ROM Arc CM6.2.0 Achotjan_2.2.3_v06
Force close:
- Home launcher
- Call log
I don't know if there are someone has these problems like me.
Please fix this or show me how to fix myself
Thanks.
First..try to fix permissions in xrecovery-advanced options! Anyway are you talking about time scape call extension?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I did as you said. Seem to be it's fixed. About the call log FC, I saw it appeared 2 times once reboot, like "com.android.calllogevent" ( I don't remember exactly)
EDIT: here is it. com.sonyericsson.eventstream.alllogplugin
Ok so..try this way:
-open market and install "unistaller for root" free app
-open it and forget to allow root access
-search timescape call log extension (i don't remember if this is the exactly name..but it's much similar) and unistall it! (Backup the apk to be safe)
After that you should be free from fc's!

I have a problem too on this ROM. I don't have the "Arc lockscreen" and it drains too much battery.
Do you have an idea ?
Have same problem.
I have big problems here. The phone LED will turn to green then finally restart after reboot or use about 5 mins. Anyone has ideas?
@silveraero : How many time has passed since the installation ?
No any ideas for the lockscreen ? I'm sure I am on the v6 with new market and no other some custom stuff (no custom kernel). BB54

Up.
18 Hours since the installation and charged one times. 45% left
I don't see the problem. Sorry. Try to re install the ROM

Everything is ok for me and others .....
just do step by step......
about battery ... if you never use the whole day .... will not decrease 1% also
Go that link and do properly
don't restore data on apps after flashing ROM if you can. sometimes flashing different version of dialer storage can do this.

[Q] Problem with Wollfbreaks Gingerbread v3.7.0

Hi, I'm from Germany and my English is bad, so I use a translator.
I'm really happy with the v3.7.
However, unfortunately I am missing the pictures in music player.
How can we solve the problem?
Thank you.
I'm not sure if i can fix your problem, but maybe you could try this miui music player it works in most roms.
If anyone knows a newer version i give a thanks because this is the only one i found and my memory doesn't even help me to remember where i found it
PS: It will only work in english, in other language it shows in chinese(i think, don't know if it is really chinese)
Found much better one!
Sorry double post, didn't know how to be able to edit and add new files in the post.
Found in another post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948556&page=3
I believe it won't install directly, but if you copy it inside system/app and reboot it will work like a charm.
This one is newer(newer that i've found) and also will be in english in other languages(it would be english before only if the android was in english).
If you like it, hit thanks button, thanks!
I am having a problem with the sound coming from the ear speaker
I am also having problems with force closes, Facebook connections (the background sync) fail, and I can't pair with a Bluetooth hands-free device. (if it is compatibility can this be modified rom?)

Googled the issues, through different descriptions, both detailed and simple, and I could not find any resolutions, regarding these issues.... please help, otherwise the ROM is Great....

Thank me if it worked !!!
I have problem with auto brightness. I used a lot of different widgets/apps to turn it on, but they don't work. FAQ said that I should turn it on with power widget, i tried and it doesn't work.
@Lesmian
have u rooted ur phone and if u have rooted then do fix permissions in Xrecovery
hope it works !!
Thank me if it did
eh ;/ I fixed permissions, but all is the same. Auto brightness still don't work.
i jus tried it on mine ..its workin fine!!! ...dunno what might be the problem in urs!!
hmm and you use wolf rom v 3.8? did you changed something in settings or it just works? Do you use any widget for auto brightness set up?
no i use power widget and m using wolf's v3.6 !!
@acerulz
Yep I fixed permissions, however, it did not 'fix' the sound. Still coming from ear speaker and blue tooth issue is not resolved.
I DON'T THINK 3.8 was not available until this morning, I will upgrade to see if it "fixes it", HOWEVER, IF you are having problems with 3.8, the issue isnt resolved.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ADVICE!!!

Query about flashing 3.8 update
hello..this is my first post here. I flashed WB rom v3.5 around the time it was released and its totally changed my phone. Its super snappy now..
I saw the 3.8 update thing today and my question is whether I can flash it using xrecovery without any data wipe because I have already done all the syncing stuff after the first flash.
I flashed 3.8 update without any data wipe and all works fine for me.

Copy SystemUI to the app folder, change permissions, done.
thx guys i changed the UI and the problem gone
now i try to fix another crash problems such as "unfortunately the process.android.process.acore has stopped" ,after googling i found a solution by clearing the data of "contacts" and "contacts storage" in App manager it suites alot of people but doesn't work for me
the other crash message was about google play "unfortunately the process.google.play has stopped" ,i tried clearing data uninstaal updates but nothing worked
besides these 2 messages i got crash of many applications ,most of them gone by reinstalling but the other still
advices plz
I guess something is wrong with your rom. sometimes reflashing the rom will cure this.
For the android.acore just change your phone.apk or phonebook.apk if i'm not mistaken
choose one of Systemui Mod here

Wonder why u are still using that rom. Reflash only the system partition and fix permissions. If the problems remain, change your rom.
