Is anyone working on a 2.2 or 2.3 rom for the E10i?
not bad idea...

Could a 2.3 system base, work on our current kernel?

Well as per my view i don't think that 2.3 version will work on our mini's ..........Becoz(I HATE TO SAY THAT) its H/W requirements are far more larger than mini.

Nonsense! we just need to be able to put custom kernels, but we can't! (bootloader is in the way) so no froyo, no gingerbread, no ports till we eliminate that SE's moral breaker... 2.3 may go a bit slower, but if an htc magic can actually use froyo, we can use 4 or 5s if they ever appear (note the exaggeration, please)

yeahhh lets wish that it works more gud than current 2.1
stock 2.3 would run fine on the x10 mini (less apps like flash of course). SE just can't see any benefit in providing the update. As for the Kernel, developers on the big x10 have already proven that 2.2/2.3 will operate on 2.6.29.

2.2 can work. 2.3 only as a demo.

but what is the use of 2.2, 2.3 when newer kernels work better,,, and we can't put new one w/o loader...

Sure, they work better but also newer system base can work better.
(even a 2.1 pure vanila android would work better than SE version. Remember: Less crapware = more speed)
In mini pro forum, Mikevhl is porting free X10 rom from zdzihu to mini pro and is willing to port it to mini too.

loger8 fails hard! well then, i'm looking more than forward for a real custom rom, then ^^
The E10 is alive!! aliveeeee!!!
Hope someone bring v2.2 on our x10 mini.
I'm working on it, you can check my thread in the x10 mini pro development. I'm stuck atm but if I get this working I'll port it over to the mini in no-time

Hi Guys
Now that we have root access to our X10 mini/mini pro, I hope we can interessest some developers to make us a custom ROM.
So I hope, with this Thread we can draw the attention of some DEV's
:-D Let's hope and pray

Why to work on 2.1 when 2.2 is available. Look forward to 2.2 Rom
Same progress must be done like on X10. So please be patient. First i (or somebody else who is faster) must fix X10flash, so that we are able to flash everytime to a desired version of rom.
then SPL must be hacked. We can try to port softspl from goroh. but first other progress must be made.

Hi Binary, thanks for the information. As I'm a noob in this, I'm trying to follow the complete progress. So I don't know how the progress will be and what steps need to be taken before you developers can make ROM's. But now I have an idea and i will be happy to follow the progress.

They need a tool that can flash the ROM into the device without bricking it, without that tool creating ROMs is first of all useless and secondly hard to test.
Good thinking. And it seems Bin4ry is advance and has already thought of creating ROMs at the back of his mind. And true let us go step by step.
Bin4ry, could you through some light why its hard to flash roms?
I think the hardware for rom is same between x10 and x10 mini. If you could share some knowledge on what blocks the custom flashing could help many of us to have broader understanding.
Is the device drivers or is it the software protections that keeps away from overwriting the ROMS?
Some insights required.
As far as C/C++ goes, even i can chimp in some hands, provided i know what to do, how to do and where to start from.
THIS might be of help, Viny - at least that's where I'm going to start and it seems it's a must to start there in order to understand how the AndroidOS works, and info about ROMs.
Thanks, I have already started reading http://pdk.android.com/
A Custom Wildfire ROM for the X10 Mini/X10 Mini Pro would be awesome..
A 2.2 would also be awesome.

Hardware is completely different, cpus arent the same, lcd, storage... whats more or less shared is the s1 bootloader which is for the entire s1 platform from sony ericsson. Though bootloaders rent the same because theyre compiled for each cpu.. thats whats preventing us from flashing on both phones. I hope when a real fix is found for one of them we will have it easier to port to the rest of the platform. Until that well have to stick to jumping from initial se kernel to boot custom roms. For that, a kexec module for these kernels must be built (gorohkun's spl for x10 wont work without a lot of modifications....)

It would probably work , but X10 has 128MB while Wildfire has 384MB so he has a point.
The RAM/NAND chip on the x10 mini is a Samsung K524G2GACB-A050 chip, with a theoretical 4gb NAND memory and 2gb SDRAM ( supposedly this translates to 512mb ROM and 256mb RAM
The above findings are based on elementary research. If somebody with better technological insight wants to to correct this, please feel free to do so.
http://www.phonewreck.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/X10PCB1.jpg
Interestingly, the MSM7227 Qualcamm processor has an FPU so in theory it's more than capable of running FROYO with flash 10.1 support, but whether SE and Adobe decide to give us this privelege is another thing altogether. I guess it remains up to the community to build their own ROM if they don't.
(and yes I know it'll never happen because flash 10.1 is built around the ARMV7 architecture, but at least SE could give us flash lite 4)

All Of This ROM runs on my X10 Mini except the keyboard.
Is it possible to convert U10i Version in E10i ?

Be Careful ! Backup your system before because in this ROM, keyboard is disabled.
This is not a new ROM!
This is just a basic tuning.
exchange framework, and save the xrecovery
Do not use this "rom"

my friends look at these threads, this rom is not good and in all fairness is not a rom at all. it is a backup of someones stock 2.1 (take a look in your settings>about phone it says is eclair 2.1 meaning it is not built by the "dev" merely he has put apps on it and made a backup for you to restore)
not to mention that most of the apps on the rom are PIRATED or "warez" if you will. this guys threads at mini pro have been all closed and even one of my threads has been shut because although i made it to warn people of the "rom" people started to talk about using the applanet app on this rom to download illegal apk's MOST OF WHICH ARE MADE BY GUYS THAT USE XDA regularly Support devs and do not use this rom please i will be reporting this thread too if it links to the guys rom and this build has warez also

like i said ^^^ it is rubbish and full of illegal software that COULD in theory get anyone who installs it in trouble legally
meh
Guys! You are rude. Offcourse is the initial stock rom tunned. So what. Is his work, like i sayd in other post ( actualy lol it wass my ideea 3 days ago in x10 mini threads), it a beggining, no? until we will have a hacked boot , is better than nothing!!!! So we can tank s him.
And mehmehmen , to install a custom rom, you need a hacked boot! this is legal? NO! If it wass legal , the Sony leave the boot to install hwo cares what he want. So pls spaire us with you legal stuff!
The X10 Bootloader have been bypassed.
They can flash custom kernel with the xReecovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12578251&postcount=848
So I have some questions :
Is the mini pro bootloader can be cracked with the same method ?
Is there a dev working on that (for mini pro) ?

hello guys i would like to ask what are the differencies between a x10 mini rom and a x10 mini pro? there are featuring the same wifi chipset, the same cpu, the same resolution... I think the two different things are the hardware keyboard which x10 mini pro has and the touchscreen!!! so i was thinking of porting slades minicm rom which is for x10 mini pro to our mini... what i should change to make it work for our mini???

Depends on ROM, but you can use some existent ramdisk, for example if you wanna port CyaNoComb (that's for mini pro) to mini, you can use MiniCM ramdisk, and will work (but of course you will lose improvements/tweaks)

FroyoBread it's already ported, MiniCM for mini pro v6.01, it's a port from it, you can port it easier from X10 mini pro, really easier.

Hey guys,
this is a Port of the recently in released in China.
This ROM can still be rooted by SuperOneClick root. Xrecovery comes preinstalled though. Do not forget that the W8 still comes with Android 2.1 still its nice as some of the stuff was updated. So if you want to update you existing 2.1 this might be a great choice.
You can remove any app you don't want from the zip or copy the ones from 2.1 to the zip you need as well.
Please Backup your build.prop before flashing so you can revert back to original state
Links
W8 Port v1.0 Please read instructions / This is Android Eclair (2.1)
Instructions:
place on sdcard
boot to xrecovery
install as custom zip
if you come from other custom rom (higher than android 2.1) do a factory reset BEFORE flashing the zip file
reboot (like stock SE firmware for pro) takes awfully long
The Works:
Everything
The Not Works
Nothing found so far
Bugs:
Some stuff is not ldpi like the widgets but it works pretty good.
Nice android 2.1 right?
did you change anything from the Original rom?
that was fast :b

Hey Slade, i'm sure this is many people's request as well, can you please post just the W8 Music player to apps and themes section? we dont wanna download the whole rom just for the music player cheers, great port btw
i tried the musicplayer but it has dependencies to framework and other stuff i guess. maybe someone in the mood to port just the app? maybe myth999 ?

The W8 has a 3.2 Mpix Hardware camera ! So this ROM allows only 3.2Mpix picture or 5Mpix ?
I'm not going to use this ROM, I prefer your amazing Froyo ROm
